Genshin Fusaki [Ryu Versher 777] vs. Argus McFarland [Tacitus]
Match Ends: Next Monday 9 PM Central
A regular wrestling ring with a cheering crowd rooting the fighters on, yet the ropes are electrically charged. Anyone who touches them will get shocked, which can be used to a fighter's advantage. Even if a fighter is immune to the element, the electricity has been altered so that even a lightning elemental would still be getting damaged if they come into contact against it for a long period of time.
Ready?
FIGHT!

[[ Ooh, electrical ropes. This sounds like fun. ]]
The electricity on the ropes didn't elude this man from his goal. He walked at the side of the ring observing the fact that there were three ropes bound to turnbuckles. With a vile grin upon his face, he leaps over the ropes, never touching, only to land in the center of the ring. His cape draping over his body as his eyes leer around the arena. The crowd cheering, chanting names of both of the combatants, and Genshin merely absorbed that energy within him. He knew that now, with this ring, there's no place to hide for his opponent.

The elderly gentleman that was given a hand to enter the ring seemed incredibly out of place, suited more for a poker table than a wrestling ring. He didn't even look to his opponent, staring at a deck of cards slipped quietly from his pockets. The plasting wrapping was quickly cast aside and when he flipped open the end of the box he took a whiff of the fresh deck of playing cards, just a few more than the standard fifty two. There was no magic to them at all, they were simply a deck that could be picked up almost anywhere, likely for less than a buck. Without further ado he began to shuffle.

Genshin took out his two blades then stabs them both into the ring, even though they didn't puncture through the canvas, they did, however, stand directly on top of it. Both of Genshin's arms, at this time, were concealed by wrappings of a woven fabric as he looks directly towards his opponent. His eyes close as he holds his hands directly together feeling out his nervous system as his body begins cracking joints here and there.
Tue Jun 19, 2007 8:05 pm · id 116552631 · page 1
From the deck he slips two cards, flinging one rapidly at Genshin before he begins to circle to the left. The card itself seems changed once it leaves his hands, sharp as a well forged blade and stronger than basic steel. Even if the magical charge contained within is dispelled it would oddly retain this new strength.

Simply put, the card flew directly towards Genshin, but the man threw it before he maneuvered himself. Genshin's ears were heightened in sensitivity, due to his daemonic nature, hearing the zipping nature of the card flowing in the air. It seemed that with this flying card, it'll be difficult to dodge, that's if Genshin was slow, but he wasn't. And the card reaching directly towards the middle of the ring, Genshin's shadows extend from his base coming around due to the electrical currents given off by the ropes making the shadows. They seem to go from being visible to being invisible to the naked eye as it crept forward towards the old man, spanning the entire ring. For what reason? Genshin's smirk only let it to be known.
Thus, right when the blade comes directly towards him now, the shadows begin creating a hand that becomes tangible to capture the card within its hand. Once more, Genshin begins using the Shadow Dancing technique.
Wed Jun 20, 2007 1:39 pm · id 116644638 · page 1
The card cought by the shadows seemed almost slippery in relation to their grip, sliding away at a snail's pace. The type of magic contained therein seemed raher odd, as if it wasn't actually there. As the elderly gentleman continues his slow path around the ring he produces two more cards, flinging one similarly to how he did so before. His sleeves begin to roll up and reveal his branded arms of their own will, not impeding his actions in the slightest. Something about his gaze -locked on Genshin- makes it seem like he's far too devoted to the delivery of the cards. Either that, or perhaps he's a dirty old man thinking about hot hot mansex with Genshin. Likely not, but you never know with old men these days.

Too bad, because right when the card hit the hand, it was stopped instantly due to the pathway being blocked by the hand itself. Suddenly, Genshin's eyes opened fiercely as he looked toward the old man noticing his gaze, then a smirk came across his face as his right hand grabs the hilt of PAIN. He didn't lift the blade, but held a firm grip which caused for the ring to suddenly tremble since the shadows covered the entire area of the ring. The only thing visible now was, in fact, the lightning charged ropes.
Instantly, the next cards were flung forward towards Genshin, and he walked forward releasing his grip directly on the blade when he tossed it directly towards the turnbuckle corner that the old man was going directly for in the side-movement towards Genshin's left as Genshin followed forward with a straight right fist toward the cards watching them explode directly upon his hand.
Thu Jun 21, 2007 2:09 pm · id 116812572 · page 1
Odd though it was, the card did not explode upon Genshin's fist, the enchantment burried within not focused on such a detonation. If, by chance, Genshin was the one to instigate the explosion it would indeed occur, but the card would remain unharmed, though it would be rather stuck to Genshin's hand by some form of adhesive enchantment. As for the one stopped by the shadow hand, it would continue its movement, as mentioned sliding along the surface of the harndened shadowstuff. This time when Argus produces two more cards he instead lets them drift through the air towards the electrified cables with a speed that defies most supernaturally enhanced visual accuity.

Yes, it was caused by Genshin, the energy bursting through to project the card backwards from him was something to be fairly and easily done at this point. Card may not be unharmed, but that doesn't mean it's incapable of being deflected. Thus, Genshin's punching prowess continues forward directed at the man as the shadows begin covering the turnbuckles.
Almost...
Thu Jun 21, 2007 11:25 pm · id 116895320 · page 1
While the cards directed towards Genshin were fun and all, they really weren't intended to do much more than direct his attention. Those four that had now connected with the ropes had generated two duplicates each. The cards began rapidly sapping the energy from the ropes, redirecting it into the arena at large and adding new properties to the surge. The shadows would begin dissolving away as a pure light -though not simply light alone- began to bathe the arena in a deific luminescence. The light was blinding in of itself, the purifying magic contained therein perfect for dispelling all current enchantments.
Fri Jun 22, 2007 4:50 pm · id 116988171 · page 1
These shadows weren't constituted by the normal behavior of Earthian shadows. These shadows were more incline to the process of the negative behaviors of creating a sure balance of light and darkness... The more light, the more darkness, and if Argus was smart, he'd deliver an attack towards Genshin or that luminescence would just be a diversion of what was really happening to the ring due to the blades concentration.
The current enchantments? More like the destruction of the ring, besides, the enchantments were done before the dispelling had begun, and one turnbuckle rope becomes elastic and over stretches from the intense heat given off by the blade itself. Besides, why did Genshin start the match in a meditative position first, it was simple to make sure that both of his blades were ready for their duty as they were in the last match. First, prepare, then conquer. The cards at the ropes would be stopped due to the propelling force given off by the blades themselves as Genshin stands with his right hand extended directly towards the old man, "Let's bring this fight to a start, power play isn't really fun unless you can feel the victim screaming in your bare hands."
Sat Jun 23, 2007 2:00 am · id 117054813 · page 1
As mentioned, it wasn't just light, rather fitting as the shadows apparently weren't shadows in the traditional sense. The idea was that the shadows did not belong, and if they happened to be produced by magic they would simply cease to be, and if otherwise they would simply be contained, quarantined, and ejected. Just because it was perfect to dispel did not mean that was its only objective and capability. When Genshin speaks Argus gives him a flat look, "Just stop and think about that for a moment. I'm an elderly gentleman, not some mindless brute of a youngster. I don't scream and I certainly don't get my hands dirty when I extract such from others. Blood is so unvcivilized." Of course, if he was interupted in speaking he wouldn't stop, his lips would just stop moving and the voice would persist. His cards began to dance around him, slipping away from his deck to hang in the air. A smirk came in return, "After all we've done in this tournament, the turn has come and the river has run its course. Lay down your hand, boy, and I'll lay down mine."
Sat Jun 23, 2007 4:15 pm · id 117120635 · page 1
It seems the shadows still were doing what they were doing, constricted or not, it was the plan for them to cover the entire ring and the turnbuckles. Genshin stood up straight with a clenched fist in front of him held at defiance, but then it rests at his side as he observes the man's continuous speech.
"Then I shall lay down the hand, but what is the prize?" The shadows continued billowing and wavering upon the ring as Genshin watched the man, actually willing to listen to him for this time being.
Sat Jun 23, 2007 5:01 pm · id 117126363 · page 1
He smirked at the inquiry, "The stakes and the ultimate payoff are entirely up to you. Victory and defeat are so bland, even with the monetary compensation at the end. How about a short lifetime? The winner steals seventy years to add to the sting of defeat." The cards around him seemed to be moving in patterns, breaking them down into groups based on suit and then into their value order. However, despite having only released approximately fourty five cards into the air there seemed to be well over one hundred, the number growing by the moment.

Mon Jun 25, 2007 6:22 am · id 117336470 · page 2
"Sounds like a plan." Genshin relayed a smirk towards the old man then tilts his head as he watches the man instead of the cards, for the old man is the one controlling the cards. Genshin grabs Fury by the hilt lifting it and holds it horizontally in front of his chest as he waits for the old man to make his move. But maybe Genshin made his move already...
Mon Jun 25, 2007 6:33 pm · id 117432868 · page 2
The number of cards floating in the air around the old man continued to increase as he began to advance towards Genshin. His stride was rigid, almost as if marching as part of a larger formation, and doing so poorly. Arcs of energy lanced between every last one of the cards, creating an impossible web before the single one facing Genshin unleashed a massive energy beam. It seemed as though there was a great deal of power behind the attack, likely enough to bring down a building.
[220]
Tue Jun 26, 2007 5:44 am · id 117490766 · page 2
Genshin, having the blade Fury well within his grip still being held in front of him in the horizontal fashion as previously stated earlier, was prepared for just an attack to be instantly devastating, but this didn't seem to be a big attack at all to Genshin. I know he can do better, this has to be a... WHAM! The beam hits directly towards Fury, turning the blade flat against the beam while the left hand holds upon the metal as the right keeps a firm hold on the hilt, Genshin's feet set into the ring's apron like cement as his body is pushed backwards almost towards the ropes. Genshin's eyes darted back towards the ropes, then he decided to use the prowess that was given to him by his homeland.
Suddenly, the beam of energy delivered by Argus was being pushed back then as Genshin takes two steps forward, he swings the blade Fury towards his right deflecting the energy upwards toward the sky to release it into the atmosphere. Veins pulsating slightly, subdue under his skin as he stares forward knowing the man had something else prepared. Again, the ring trembled beneath Genshin's feet.
Tue Jun 26, 2007 1:18 pm · id 117540106 · page 2
The beam strikes the blade and simply seems to stop there, fading away instead of producing a big ruckus or lasting long enough to be deflected skyward. Three cards are left in its wake, plastered to the blade that so willingly blocked the beam. Another moment and the sword would be gone, relocated and set to return once the fight had completed. An odd quirk to the dismissal would note that it had not been teleported and, by and large, did not seem to exist anywhere, but also at the same time seemed to be exactly where it had been a moment before, and where it will be again in due time. One card came forth and grew to a large size, the five of staves, despite it being the wrong type of card for the decks he employed. From this card emerged five swords that looked like Genshin's Fury, but were indeed not the blade at all. Each of the five lanced out with the intent of skewering the man. However, after the apparent illusion of the previous assault it would be difficult to determine if they were real or not.
[295]
Tue Jun 26, 2007 9:01 pm · id 117614600 · page 2
Genshin notices the fact that the beam dissipated due to the arrival of his blade towards it. A firm grin upon his hand as he turns the blade vertically downward, but then there was an opposing force towards Genshin's blade to make it transcend this plane, but at the same time, don't but by other means trans-locate from its current position to a different one. Genshin wouldn't allow that, for the Will of Genshin is entwined with the blade Fury and also with the blade PAIN, so when the card tries to make the blade lose existence for a short amount of time due to the fight. Genshin stopped it from maneuvering by sheer will power.
But Genshin's body continued to maneuver forward since the deflecting didn't occur, his forward momentum did. His pace quickened, as he suddenly slashed the blade horizontally directly towards the old man sending an incredible wave of energy, becoming negative by the second, having for the ropes to react towards it. In doing so, lightning bolts from the rope itself goes directly towards the horizontal like energy veering straight towards the old man. The energy acts like a buzz-saw blade charging straight for the old man as Genshin drops low slamming Fury deeper into the ring watching the random bolts of lighting go towards the energy and go by him and through him at the same time, but the damage would go noted but not reacted to. After all, it's the thrill of pain that thrives him.
Tue Jun 26, 2007 9:30 pm · id 117619160 · page 2
It looks as if the old man splits in two, each darting in an opposing direction as the blast nears. The cards begin darting around between them, forming a long ellipsoid shape where the cards would move slow around the left one (from Argus' perspective) and quickly circle past the right. Bolts of energy would attract to single cards, mainly near the center between the two as that was the easiest apparent location. The blade itself would sink into the cards, streams of energy dancing past where they cannot block it, but apparently leaving it to do little real damage. There are now six cards on Genshin's blade, wrapping around it now and almost becoming one with the metal despite the continued use of the blade.
[365]
Thu Jun 28, 2007 9:57 am · id 117832159 · page 2
But the man didn't split in two at all, Genshin isn't going to fall for some illusion like that, and apparently, that's what the cards were used for as well. Now, Genshin's nose begins to sniff the air like a wolverine looking for a dining meal as he continues forward directly to the center of the ring. The cards themselves would find it hard to bond with Fury due to its elaborate nature of being fueled by emotion. The more anger and 'fury' Genshin felt, the more the blade begins to shine in its metallic state. The cards meet to Genshin's blade, but only to Fury's apparant barrier which formulated during the beginning of the match.
A shadowy hand begins to formulate lifting from the ground to grab directl upon the hilt of PAIN while Genshin lifts his right hand upwards and standing with his blade Fury touching the ring's surface. Hopefully, there'll be something to prepare for here as Genshin's fingers rub together in a brief fashion.
Thu Jun 28, 2007 8:28 pm · id 117925878 · page 2
As six became twelve it seemed to not matter that Fury was encased in a field of protection, they'd cling all the same, whether to barrier or blade. Furthermore, it seemed that the cards were feeding off the emotion flowing through the blade just as it might empower the blade. If Genshin was trying to find the old man by sense of smell it would be quite clear that both of them were Argus. Then again, it could simply be an illusion that was just that good. Each of the two men throw their arms towards Genshin, a storm of bladed cards surging forward with all intentions of slicing him to ribbons.
[430]
Fri Jun 29, 2007 7:56 am · id 117974210 · page 2
"Now." And wham, that's when it happens, the blade of PAIN finds the actual body of Argus due to the shadows having pure senses of knowing which is their master and which is the real deal. The illusion won't fool them due to their sort-of separate consciousness that they shared partially from Genshin.
"Hmhmhm... I can see through the illusion, and know that your cards are nothing else but a trick to play with my eyes, my friend. Now, let's get serious, and really start this battle off." After his fingers suddenly snap a negating apparatus created by the shadows themselves, Genshin's eyes were then closed as well. Genshin wouldn't sense anything, not even feel anything, if there were anything to feel it was the great sensation of PAIN that'd would occur to him when the blades hit against his body. But, the cards hitting his body wouldn't have any effect due to the negation release of the shadows prowess. With this, both men would begin suffering the losing of their powers becoming nothing but mere mortals, and this is where Genshin's toleration of the match shall begin.
Fri Jun 29, 2007 6:20 pm · id 118054896 · page 2
The only problem was the simple fact that there was no distinction between either of the two, not even any magical force, or lack thereof, that might represent an illusion. Hell, there wasn't even any true illusion in play, nor any form of invisibility, but something a bit more substantial and less magical. Even if the magic within the cards was negated they were still sharp as a motherfucker and were launched at Genshin with only a 'hand' guiding them, not propelling them. Furthermore, if the magic within is negated the many many wounds caused to Genshin would leave behind no pain. After passing Genshin the cards would return, drawn back to the two with the more speed and force than their initial pass at the man.
[490]
Sun Jul 01, 2007 9:00 am · id 118245501 · page 2
The situation was simple then, Genshin took not much damage in that transition of different attacks and such, but yet, his blade was supposed to be covered in cards, but they were flaring off of it as he kept a hold on the blade. Yet, PAIN found its destination, and going directly through the old man since he didn't realize the fact that the shadows were the ones leading the blade directly to the man for they can recognize what's on them and what's not. The ring was covered with the shadows from the beginning of the match, and Genshin just grinned as he closed his eyes.
Sun Jul 01, 2007 2:32 pm · id 118281272 · page 2
As previously addressed, it was impossible to telll which was Argus, if either were Argus, or anything of the like. The effect applied to everything, not simply Genshin, not even just him and his blades, but every last damn thing that could ever possibly think of observing him or the match in general. Even if the blade had any possibility of ever finding Argus, the blade would simply slide through him and out the side, showing no damage done aside from what looked to be paper shreds on the blade. As the cards returned to the two men and began running between them they would both flick their arms out to the side. A moment later each card would slightly increase in size and then split in half before making a similar assault upon Genshin as they had before, coming from two directions in a sort of crossfire.
[1090]
Sun Jul 01, 2007 5:04 pm · id 118301091 · page 2
There's a way, as previously stated in the first post the shadows covered the ring itself. And never was it stopped, thus, now the shadows having the ring covered makes it easier for the prey to be noticed. That's if, he's standing on the inside of the ring or on either the turnbuckle poles, otherwise, the man wouldn't be truly noticed at all. PAIN, the blade didn't move on its own accord, what happened was that a shadow lead the blade directly towards a source. If the old man was on the ring's surface or any other parts of the ring, besides the ropes, then the shadows quickly lead the blade to go directly to its point of interaction.
If not, then Genshin will just stand there until the cards came, then swiftly dip his upper body under the cards as if performing in a limbo contest then stand right up. (Edit) As more cards came, he'd do the same, then step forward back, and suddenly go into an aversion rampage making sure that none of the cards would touch him, but then he'd notice something from his left side, Argus' right and he suddenly feels his left hand extend towards Argus, Is that the fake? With a smirk upon his face he throws an energy ball directly towards the suspected fake, but at the same time does it with the other with the shadows flaring behind the other where PAIN's to be giving a stab to. One of them would react, so... which one is it. His eyes are closed, thus his senses and connection with the shadows alert him when to move. Without any usage of sight, though, this perspective illusion won't work.
Sat Jul 07, 2007 1:08 am · id 119126962 · page 2
As the energy ball and blade move in for the attack a darkness enwraps both elderly men, but not one involved with lack of light. A momentary lack of perception -a mere blink of each of the six senses and beyond- would hide the simple fact that the blade seemed to slip through and the energy ball wasted itself somewhere behind the Argus it targeted. The sound of shuffling cards accompanied the return of perception, whereby it appeared as though missing bits of the old man were replacing themselves with cards from the surrounding cloud as they returned to him. With a smirk on each of his lips the elderly men began to advance on Genshin, each hoping for a direct assault as the cards built a shell around them both.
[550-550]
Mon Jul 16, 2007 2:23 pm · id 120590541 · page 3
Was the old man floating? He couldn't have been, because if he was, the shadows would have enveloped both persons in a heart beat to let the blades go directly towards the source of each man. The mere blink in perception didn't include any perspective from the arena's air movement, because if there was a transference to be in that state, then the man would have to teleport to not be notice by the prowess that Genshin was using. These shadows act almost onto their own accord partially like a separate being, but at the same time a part of Genshin. So, fooling them, would only work if the man wasn't even within this plane of existence.
But then, Genshin smirks as he slams his fist directly at the bottom of the ring as it begins to suddenly collapse from the shadows crushing the ring entirely.
Tue Jul 17, 2007 5:28 pm · id 120803289 · page 3
The problem with tracking air movement was that there happened to be several hundred cards dancing through the air. Included with the fact that all perception seemed to ignore him for a moment, even perception that did not come from Genshin in any way, it was impossible to determine which man was the genuine article. With both now advancing on Genshin with their partially built shells of cards they would simply take one step and quite obviously be walking on air. Any shadows converging on them would meet with cards and be blocked from contacting him while they floated towards their opponent.
[600-600]
Tue Jul 17, 2007 9:08 pm · id 120842181 · page 3
Genshin thought, and noticed that the ring starting to collapse didn't collapse completely as the entities weren't even on the ring at all. So, Genshin does the unthinkable and walks directly towards both men and says to them, "Hit me."
Tue Jul 17, 2007 10:03 pm · id 120850962 · page 3
Between the shifting cards of their respective spheres the two men looked towards Genshin with quirked brows. They briefly examined the apparent feat of walking on air as performed by Genshin before lifting their gaze to him, the spheres pulling back to reveal most of their bodies. Each would advance forward and attack, the one on Genshin's right aiming a kick at his side below the ribs and the one on his left aiming a punch towards Genshin's face, left arm kept tucked close to his body. For reference, again, both were not illusions in any way, but there would not be as much force behind the strikes as there would be otherwise for a man of his size and build.
[645-645]
Thu Jul 19, 2007 10:44 am · id 121077944 · page 3
It didn't matter that the forces behind each movement for the punch and the kick heading directly towards Genshin, but this was the sheer fact that both of them now would notice why Genshin likes fighting so much and no need for words to be given at all.
Genshin's right arm goes to wrap directly around the leg that aimed to kick at his ribs. It wrapped due to the fact that the kick hits directly at his ribcage, and Genshin's arm holds firmly to keep a grip upon the man. At the same time, the left palm meets with the fist of the other to have a firm hold.
"Come on... quit trying to hit me... and HIT ME!"
Thu Jul 19, 2007 12:16 pm · id 121091762 · page 3
Each of the two float there, heads hung low, "It seems as though you are superior in terms of melee combat. Should I simply concede?" Each of them would be trying to pull away from Genshin's grip, but with no luck, the cards they had accumulated dancing around rather randomly.

Fri Jul 20, 2007 3:32 pm · id 121282256 · page 3
"I know you're not giving up..." His eyes didn't move, but his perspective did notice the continuous amount of cards that had developed. His grip became tighter as if to crush mountains in his bare hand, but why would he had such a grip? Simple... one of them would feel immense pain than the other, yes, they're not illusion, but it's only a matter of time that the real one will show itself.
Sat Jul 21, 2007 10:43 pm · id 121459875 · page 3
Both of them men stare at Genshin as the sound of crumpling paper fills the air and they look to the bits of them being crushed, "How random!" It was at this point that the large number of cards would seal the three within a sphere and a maelstrom of cards would begin to swirl inside, perfect for a good slice-and-dice blender.
[740-740]
Mon Jul 23, 2007 10:17 pm · id 121720192 · page 3
The cards seem to suddenly stop in motion right when they reach Genshin's body, but yet his body wasn't really being visible at this time. The sliding occurrence that happened before with the cards happen again but this time, the shadows were guiding the cards back toward their respective owners, to inflict the slicing dicing upon their behalf. The shadows covered Genshin's body, and since his hands are directly upon both persons, that's when they reacted like a symbiote to bond with the new bodies...
Something is bound to happen now.
Tue Jul 24, 2007 1:14 am · id 121736941 · page 3
Oh, something did indeed happen, but it was hardly what Genshin might expect, or maybe he would, who knows? Each of the many cards slide into the bodies of their new targets, rejoining with that which had expelled them. Those portions being gripped by Genshin crumpled away to nothing and left the two men standing rather nonchalantly as they blinked and their limbs were repaired. The sphere of cards began to roll away with the two men inside it, cause fights inside rolling objects are much more fun than stationary objects.
[500-500]
Thu Jul 26, 2007 3:18 pm · id 122130483 · page 3
But with the movement of the spheres, Genshin seemed to be stationary within the object itself, that's if... he was in it. The tentacle-like shadows continue to go around both bodies even though they crumbled, they continued to envelope both men. Genshin merely smirked toward them with a great intensity to see how his shadow would do.
Thu Jul 26, 2007 8:50 pm · id 122182514 · page 3
Those bits of shadow that might still be attached to the two would be quarantined inside small cages of their own. These cages, some even grown from the two men themselves, sealed up and launched off somewhere out of the way. This would leave Argus rather pristine, a soft glow beginning to emanate from each of the many many cards. He was obviously doing something, but it was as yet unclear as the sphere lifted off the ground.
[550-550]
Sat Jul 28, 2007 8:22 pm · id 122435774 · page 3
Cages wouldn't conquer them due to their enveloping nature of the bodies, and the continuous wrapping of the entire bodies ensue Argus to notice a difference of what the shadows were really doing. Then, Genshin grins as his right hand seems to stab forward directly towards the left image while the left spins around in a back-fisting motion towards the right at the head to knock them both into the sphere itself. The burning sensation of the prowess was going to be noticed by Argus from the shadows intent.
Sat Jul 28, 2007 8:57 pm · id 122441033 · page 3
The two would slide through the shell, any shadow still touching them left behind on the shell on the inside. There would be nothing left to feel, all magical events long since halted with the old man now relying on racial capabilities. The sphere itself was now bouncing around the upper floors of nearby buildings, the two men of cards walking along the outside as the rest continued to multiply inside. The question now was whether or not the sphere was actually growing smaller, or if something else was causing the inner diameter to shrink.
