Kevin walked around an empty city. The state of the former inhabitants was the farthest thing from his mind. There was something in this city. Something with wings.

The afternoon light shone intensely as it glittered off the glass of the skyscrapers, making it appear as though diamonds were coating the city. The ground below was a different story, littered with debris and filth.

It was from here that Phoenix came from, stepping out from an alleyway twenty yards in front of Keven. He preferred to use his wings only when necessary. He wore a white t-shirt and a pair of bluejeans today, trying to blend in with his surroundings as to not startle the fragile humans. Not that there are any here, he thought. His brown hair blew in the breeze, and his muscles tensed and relaxed several times before speaking.

"I hear you are looking for me. What brings you here?" While his appearance was that of a young adult, Phoenix spoke with the wisdom of an elder.

"Why must there always be a grand scheme to things?" Kevin sighed and adjusted his glasses. "Why can't someone just want to fight? That's why we're here, we humans i mean, i don't really know why you're here but, I want to fight." Kevin scanned the dirty city that he has been calling home for the past year. He knew its ins and outs let's hope that Phoenix wasn't as good as Kevin had heard. He slid his hand inside of his jacket and pulled out a pack of cigarettes. "You got a light?" As he replaced the pack he removed a small handgun from his jacket and fired.

OOC: Be specific as to what part of me you are shooting at. Be more descriptive in your posts, please.

BIC: Phoenix was about to answer when he saw the handgun pulled. He jumped out of the way, ducking and spinning to his left until he was crouching on one knee. As he was spinning, a cloud ash suddenly appeared from nowhere, expanding quickly to cover the street and stretching towards Kevin. The ash made visibility extremely difficult, even for Phoenix. But he was't the one with a gun, and he could easily breath in the ash, while Kevin could not. Phoenix stayed where he was, hiding within the cloud where Kevin could not see him. Soon, it would cover the entire street.

Phoenix sat waiting for his opponents next move, considering his options. He listened for another gunshot, or even the crunch of gravel. If Kevin wanted a fight, it was a fight he was going to get.

"Ah the ash thing I've heard about this." Kevin lifted his shirt to cover his mouth and nose. This was going to be a good fight he could feel it already. He opened his hand and focused on it, the air cooled down around him. the frost was beginning to form an orb in his palm. "Take this he pierced the ash with his icy blast. Kevin used this as a distraction to retreat. 'Get away from the ash you won't win in the ash' Kevin thought as he began formulating his next attack. As he ran he pulled another gun from his jacket.

As Phoenix sat, a blue blast of ice suddenly flew past him, but several meters to his right. The ash was working, but he heard Kevin retreating. Not about to stop, Phoenix moved the ash after Kevin in a hurry, but expelled more in the area he was crouched in. He slowly stood, a longsword appearing in his hand from nowhere, the hilt fashioned to resemble the majesty of a phoenix, his true form.

Phoenix carefully proceeded forward in a careful pace, listening to Kevin's attempt at fleeing. He was ready now.

Kevin shot at a storefront window and leapt inside. Best Buy, wonderful. Kevin worked quickly and fashioned a mask to help him see and breathe while in the mix of Phoenix's magic dirt. It was time to stop running, he turned and embraced the thick cloud as it engulfed him. With a speed unfitting of such a small man Kevin burst through the sea of darkness with one target in mind. Being a technopath had such wonderful side effects, Kevin leapt into the air and hurled a small metal container into the dust. the small piece of scrap bounced off of the ground. Kevin pushed himself forward using small bursts of heat to propel him. He scanned the ash for Phoenix and finally found his shape through the dust. Kevin stood and fired at Phoenix's torso. The hot metal screamed out of the barrel as it flew at its target.

Phoenix heard the gunshot and the shattering of glass. He slowed down, hesitant as to what Kevin had in mind. Then, out of nowhere, the man emerged from the ashes with a mask of some sort over his head.

Hm. He's quite resourceful, thought Phoenix.

But then Kevin fired the gunshot, and Phoenix reacted with supernatural speed. He brought up his sword and deflected the bullet with the flat side of the blade. While a normal sword would surely take damage from this, Phoenix's was infused with Dreamworld magic. This sword was his primary weapon, and past memories show great deeds being done with this very blade. With his left hand, Phoenix used fire for the first time in this battle. A cone of flames shot from his hand, aimed directly at the gunslinger. While doing this, Phoenix concentrated on the ash, ready to use it if need be.

Kevin saw the light from the fire as the cone rushed towards him. Instinct told him to run but his mind told him differently. He crouched down and changed his two guns into a long sleek blade. Then he leapt toward Phoenix his shoulders beginning to burn as the flames fell upon him. The cone of fire came from Phoenix's hand, Kevin decided to attack that! He burst forward pushing himself with the occult flames His blade soaring towards his opponent.

Phoenix blocked quickly with his sword, deflecting the blow directed at his hand. He ceased the fire, and sent a horizontal slash toward the machinery on his adversary's head. If it connected, the machine would surely be broken, but if Kevin dodged, Phoenix was ready.

While swinging, Phoenix moved some of the ash in the immediate area onto the handle of his opponent's sword, hoping to get in between hand and hilt, making the sword near impossible to grip.

'God he's better than I expected. He's thinking almost five moves in advance. But he's sloppy' Kevin thought as he reacted. The ash was forcing him to release his weapon, he no longer had any use for it anyway so he released it. The sword coming to his head was another matter. He couldn't afford to lose his helmet so he leapt forward and springboarded off of his own sword which was still hanging in the air, left in the clutches of Phoenix's ash. He was air born now not the best area to be in when fighting someone who can fly. Kevin reached into his jacket and removed a handgun and a small detonation device. He scanned the area and found that the small metallic orb he had thrown was now precariously close to Phoenix's foot. He winked at his enemy as he pressed down upon the button in his hand.

Phoenix's slash missed by near inches as Kevin leaped into the air.

How many guns does this man have? thought Phoenix as he watched him draw another handgun.

But Kevin wasn't focused on him, Phoenix realized. And only then did he notice the metallic orb sitting a few inches from his left foot. As quick as he could, Phoenix fell onto his back, keeping his knees up. His lower legs stood between the bomb and the rest of his body for a split second--and then the bomb exploded. Heat and fire rushed around Phoenix, but that wasn't what bothered him. The problem was the shrapnel that flew at him once the explosion occurred. It dug into his legs like a solid punch, and then he felt nothing. The heat had closed any open wounds, although there was likely to be metallic pieces sticking from his leg. But he would have to deal with that when there was more time. Hopefully Kevin was hit with some, as well--he seemed less prepared for it.

Looking for a distraction, Phoenix had to use an attack earlier than planned. He rolled and stood while Kevin was still falling, his legs slightly hurt. While doing this, Phoenix concentrated on all of the ash around on the street and, with a bit of will power, ignited every piece.

The air was now filled with what looked like fireflies, every piece of ash dancing around in a lazy motion, but so full of the energy Phoenix had put in them. Phoenix now stood defensively, his sword held diagonally, ready to deflect anything Kevin threw at him.

Kevin watched as below him the thick cloud of black ash grew bright red. "You're going to have to use more than heat to beat me buddy" as he finished speaking his body grew cold. More occultist magic, enough to keep Kevin's skin temperature the way it was even in the most arid and burning deserts. He then landed on the ground and pushed the cool air from his body. The outward exploding gust pushed the flaming debris away. Kevin ran around the next block and began preparing his next attack. As he rounded the corner he saw his discarded sword. He picked it up, changed it back into it's handgun state and entered an SUV left abandoned in the city.

Phoenix ran after Kevin as soon as he landed, not letting him escape. While his legs burned, adrenaline and fire kept him moving, but they needed rest. As he ran, huge, fiery wings erupted from Phoenix's shoulder blades, lifting him off of his feet and propelling him forward, gliding over the asphalt like a true Dreamcreature. He bid the flaming ash to follow, letting it blow around him as he took chase.

As Kevin jumped into the SUV, Phoenix didn't think twice as he slashed upwards at the gas cap, opening it and letting out a putrid smell. He continued upwards, flying to an angle that if Kevin shot, he would not be directly above him. As he flew, Phoenix willed enough ash into the gas tank to put it alight, and the explosion was immediate. Phoenix faced the car, unweary of shrapnel at this distance.

Phoenix did not see how Kevin could escape so easily this time, but he stayed on guard, ash swirling around him and the SUV.

Kevin stood on the sidewalk opposite of the burning SUV. "I didn't want to use it to run" Kevin breathed out the words as he shuffled blocking a small contraption behind him from Phoenix's view. Kevin placed his hand on another car willing it into a small pack that he slung around his back. He wiped off his glasses now coated with a thin layer of ash, and he rose into the air. "You aren't the only one who can fly." Kevin then morphed his two handguns into a single rifle. He shouldered the weapon and fired. The bullet was hurling itself towards Phoenix's stomach.

Time froze suddenly, locking the two combatants in place. Amid the rubble, a man in massive white plate mail appeared where nothing had been before. Slung over his back was a great, glimmering sword that seemed to shimmer with the light of stars. His bleach blonde hair was tied elegantly back from his face, leaving nothing to stand between the battlefield and his gaze. He was one of the Avatars of War, a god of battle that watched over all battles as though they were children that merited care.

This avatar turned and inspected the battle closely, seeing every instant that had occured leading up to that very still moment.

"Kevin, you have transgressed upon the rules of battle. Your actions are poorly explained and entirely exempt from the standards of reality and sportsmanship. In battle, every move must be as elegant and thorough as a poem, and your accounts of these moves should be written as such. As you are no veteran of the arena, I will give you a reprieve from the laws. I will reverse time to Phoenix's last assault, wherein you were seated inside the car. If your actions once again betray the spirit of these games, I shall appear again and claim your soul. Know now that an unfair victory is worth less than a noble loss. Best of luck to you both."

And with these final words leaving his lips, time returned to the second immediately after Phoenix's last assault. Kevin was still inside the vehicle, and he was in the same state he had been in then, aside from the wisdom he had gained at the hands of the god of battle.

OOC: You're godmodding, man. Do it again and the battle's over.

The fire and ash roared around Kevin as the SUV sparked up like a match. The metal screamed and warped as the heat filled the car. Kevin desperately thought of something to do. He leaned back and slammed his feet through the windshield the air in would cause the flames to grow so he had to act fast. Reaching down he wretched the door open and burst outside. He was choking on the ash but knew that he would handle that later, there was something that needed his attention now. Moving quickly Kevin pulled the hood of the car open and ripped out the battery. 'Why isn't he attacking?' Kevin thought as he scanned the sky. The visor on Kevin's helmet was cracked and now useless he tossed it aside and took a deep breath in. "This is going to be fun," he said. Then he began to formulate his next attack.

Phoenix saw Kevin burst from the flaming car in a panic and toss aside his helmet. Whatever he was doing in the car engine would not last long.

Phoenix concentrated on the flaming ash swirling about the car and directed it all towards Kevin, making a storm of ash that swirled about him. His vision would be severely hindered, and the smoldering flames would also singe his skin. With all the heat and ash, Kevin should be having a hard time breathing, as well, Phoenix thought. But he is clever.. Phoenix made sure to pay attention, and to move the ash with Kevin to keep him in the dark, battered and confused, hopefully.

While the ash swirled about, Phoenix began to concentrate deeply on his inner fire, making sure to avoid the Dreamforce. All he needed was the fire--and a lot of it. If Kevin ever escaped the ash, he was in for a surprise.

The ash surrounded Kevin as he moved. The thick ash burned his lungs as he went on. Kevin moved to the front of the car and ripped open the hood. There it was, the battery. He reached deep into the engine block and pulled it free. But as he lifted it from the burning vehicle, the SUV burst again. Kevin lay on the hard concrete his face and hands badly burnt and the ash still surrounding him. He focused on what could be his final move in this battle. He seperated his gun into various parts and tried to construct something from the battery. Leaving various parts littering the ground. "Let's end this Phoenix." Blood ran down Kevin's lips as he reached into his jacket and pulled another small container out.

Phoenix saw the second explosion through the ash, and saw the shadow of Kevin fly back and to the ground. The time was now.

Phoenix let loose the energy he had been searching for. A cascade of fire escaped from Phoenix, bellowing forward in excitement. He quickly took control of the fire, and sent it down towards Kevin. As the fire moved, it shaped into a long pillar that spiraled downward, forming a small tornado-like funnel that would channel all the hot air down and oxygen up. It had not yet reached Kevin, but soon would. It would be getting hotter and harder to breath on the street.

"Let us end this, Kevin."
