After a quick stop in the Nurse's Office--really, it was much less casual than that; Xuza was, after all, hauled in on a stretcher and healed with all urgency from the gaping hole in her stomach--a curious idea had found its way into the mind of the meister: rematch.
She didn't know exactly why it was that she was doing this, but she knew every step that led up to this fight and what it symbolised for her future. A series of visions, fading in and out like breaths, covered her eyes. What she saw, standing there, face a blank slate coated with determination, body oscillating between what was earlier today and some other entity with hard-earned poise for battle, was at once a partner and an obstacle. She said nothing, only drawing her sword (Espada Ropera) quietly.

Decus Etross Tsukikage Tōshin ("God of the Sword")
The worst part about being strong is that no one ever asks if you're ok.
Decus feels Xuza appear in the area and stands. The shade chuckled to itself in anticipation a viscous white fluid like substance materializing behind it. Decus calls out as clear as if he was standing in front of the miester. As he speak he releases all the negative energy he had been keeping contained and pours it into Xuza's shade. The shade was virtually identical to Xuza, except inverted in color.
" You recovered rather quickly, and it seems that there is something different in your eyes. This being I took from you is a shade;an amalgamation of you raw emotions to put it simply. She calls herself Azux and she has only gained more powerful since you saw her last. Let me see the strength of your resolve. "
After finishing he leaps to the top of the highest pillar to observe. Azux giggles and manifested her own twisted version of her counterparts weapon. The Amalgam then watches Xuza's movements with a wicked grin.
-A double-bladed glaive, which appears to be made of polished gold and ivory that was created in a way that it increases its powers when cutting a evil spirit or demon. The glaive was forged from the gold of the two sacred wells of the Twin Moon Clan,the and is known to be able to stand up against powerful demonic and magical beings. The glaive is also capable of splitting the weapon into two smaller swords, allowing for quick slashing attacks.
b]Robe of the Lunar Sage: -The armors most notable feature is the polished golden mask , which is set in the shape of a stylized Sun with nine circular indentations arrayed symmetrically across the mask's face. The armor consist of a white robe draped in gold lined patterns that extend over the sleeves, hood and coat. The robe also features red diamond-shaped patterns that run down along the chest to form a chain at the legs and also down his sides. The robe itself features gold rings of metal around the base of the arms and also splits apart just below the waist to allow for fluid movement in combat. For footwear the armor provides white-leather gold-toed boots with heels, making him appear somewhat feminine, but eloquently stylized and tall. It offers great defense against demonic energies. As a cosmetic affect if Decus sheds blood it promptly turns into golden feathers before disappearing.
Active Techniques/Abilities: Atsu.
Yōgōdō Kiyome (, " Yang Assimilaton of the Body" : Due the the blessing of the Twin Moon sisters Decus's can use negative energies to enhance his body physically,and has a natural resistance to them. This is built on the conception of altering ratios between Yang and Yin on the body itself. Decus basically makes Yang more dominant than Yin in every part of his body, while leaving a very small Yin amount. This would enhance his bodies physical attributes at the cost of clouding his mind. Using this for extended periods of time can even lead to Decus succumbing to madness.
Eye of the Swordsman: This innate ability is one that is relatively simple in nature, but complicated in use. The Eye allows any possessing this skill to accurately gauge the fighting ability of their opponent, not by Spiritual Energy but rather by body language and the subconscious signals one gives off from their body. This also allows Decus to somewhat predict the movements of his opponents moments before they occur by analyzing their bodies and familiarizing himself with the motions of an opponent, in essence "reading" an opponent before they get the opportunity to actually enact their actions. This ability is simply result from the immense amounts of experience that Decus possesses in the field of swordsmanship. That being said, these may be taught to others through rigorous training and instruction yet may not be copied as it is not truly an "ability" rather a process done subconsciously.
--------------------------------------------------------- Mikazuki Rasengan(Three Days' Moon Spiralling Sphere) - Decus creates a white,or black orb of dense lunar energy that shines with a blinding white light,or contains a darkness deeper than night. This orb then forms a crescent moon with a star in the center. Decus must then make physical contact with the opponent similar to a Soul Menace technique.This tends to launch the target spiraling backward after being hit or, if the target is lying on the ground they will launched to the ground, the destructive force is enough to form a crater. Decus is able to throw the Rasengan, making it a mid-range projectile technique also. This is his most common technique.
Atsu ( Pressure): -Decus's signature technique that allows him to manipulate the shockwaves by channeling his power through his sword. He can send the shockwaves by swinging or just simply moving his sword. The direction of the force can be upwards, downwards, or sideways,but he is only able to only use one direction at a time. 4 post cool down. A variation of this is when Decus unleashes an almighty slash, releasing a powerful blade of pressure that appears as faint ripples of wind at his foe at high speeds; this attack enables Decus to assault things which are out of his sword's range, sending slashes which fly through the air itself. These blades of wind possess incredible range and devastating power; and Decus has mastered this ability to the point that it can cut through most barriers of magical energy.
(Kansō; lit. Express Equipmentary) - Like his sister Decus can use Kansō. This can be used for simple or for combat-related purposes. Decus is more skilled in using it, as he can equip different weapons in battle with in rapid succession,but cannot equip armor at the same rate. 1 post cool down for weapons.
Demonic Possession Magic: - This particular form of Magic allows the user to assimilate the powers and forms of different demons by touch. This magic gives Decus a variety of different abilities such as flight, enhanced speed, strength, reflexes etc depending on the demon. Decus has also shown a versatile use, allowing him to use the natural powers of the demons he's killed without fully taking their form. However, Decus must actually have defeated the demon before being able to use their form.
Demonic Possession,Tsuki Shugoshin (Moon, Guardian Deity): - When the Twin Moon sister finally established the Clan it was said they each had one champion disciple. Each mastering Yin or Yang respectively,and becoming the first masters of the Yakō,and Yaso . In this form Decus can command the Yin and Yang with in himself at will with great control. The main ability being that the Yin he exudes purifies evil,while the Yang uses evil to empower the user. However,this form can only be maintained at night and is affected by the moons presence. (Last 8 post 7 post cool down)
Demonic Possession,Tsuki no Usagi(Moon Rabbit):: -This demonic possession is one where enhanced Ying-Yang energy morphs his body incredibly as well to grant him demonic levels of strength. After an explosion of raw power, Decus appears older as far a physical body structure. His skin becomes the color of dark chocolate,hair is turned pure silver, elongated to run down past his shoulders. Aster gains appendages atop his head that strangely resemble ears,as well as blade-like protrusions coming out from his forearms. In this form he utilizes a advance form of Atsu. This is a technique that provides him with the ability to project his power using glyphs,but he only has dominion within the space the glyph inhabits. (last 7 post 6 post cool down)
Harmony of the Twin Moon: - Decus draws the Twin Moon swords and strikes them together producing a magnificent sound. Afterward the glyph of his Palm appears under him, and white-black flames of Lunar energy erupt from the ground. The flames cries out an eerie moan immediately followed by the sound of prayer chants in the form of a hymn that echoes throughout the immediate area, often confusing those who witness the transformation process.During the hymn itself, Decus's is encase in a sphere and his skin turns pure white. His powers proceeded to merge into one form, one that combined aspects from both his demonic and lunar traits in a perfect harmony. As the hymn nears its end,his Palm becomes golden and spreads over the sphere like runes.Once he channels his Lunar power thru his swords he makes a diagonal swing that causes the sphere to shatter like glass and reveal his forms true beauty. He gains a skeletal mask with horns,and his coat an hair both turn white with black ruffles on the cuffs and edges of the robe, as well as gains a long, black horn with a portion of bone covering left side of his head.(last 10 post 5 post cool down).
Meidō Zangetsuha (Dark Path Slashing Moon Wave) - Decus concentrates and condenses a lot of negative energy before releasing it at the tip of the blade, magnifying the slash attack, that flies forward. This slash takes the shape of a crescent moon or wave. Decus has used this technique in several different manners, such as striking the ground to create an omnidirectional blast to knock away incoming attacks or slashing at the ground to upturn it and crush everything in its path, or a barrage of blades that ripped apart whatever they hit. The energy used is very heavy and dense,and gains momentum the longer it travels.( 1 post to invoke the technique into the blade. 2post cool down for small-medium crescents,4 for a large crescent/arc.)
Xuza was oscillating between a surprised little senior in high school and a cold, somewhat sad-looking woman who appeared to be an older version of the herself. Surprise was from seeing negatively colored copy of herself. Needless to say, it was case for concern. In an instant she was her older self again, and drew on her doppleganger with a business-like determination in her eyes.
"S-Saw her last!" Cried the winged miester switching back to her more recognisable self. "I don't understand what's going on..." Her voice faded out as floating spheres, made of plates it seemed, faded in around her. She became her older self once more, and directed the balls around her to sweep in at Azux: five in total; in a formation that was supposed to contain/restrict her movement.

Decus watches the proceedings like a hawk. This kind of occurance was common to him. This was his preferred training method. It was dangerous but effective. The white fluid behind Azux shifts and slashes at the containment plates. .
" I'm hurt can't you tell who I am? That's a real shame. I mean, stuck inside,, waitng for years upon years for you to be able to speak with me, and when you do you don't even know who I am. "
The Amalgam leaps toward Xuza with a stabbing motion. .

"Do what now??" Xuza, switching back, scrambled a locked blades with the wily doppelganger called Azux. She was able to keep herself from taking a hit, but the creature was pushing Xuza back fairly easily.
"Listen... Whatever you are," said the meister gritting her teeth a bit, holding the imposter at the second quarter of her blade. There was a bit of clash from their wavelengths, providing a small light-show. "I'm-sure-you're-very-nice," she began in a sarcastically robotic voice, "but I'm afraid all this sun might not good for someone so--" swipe!--"fair-skinned..." Xuza doubled back and clutched her head in pain immediately following the rebuttal, oscillating from now and then rapidly with no sign of control of awareness.

Even though he wanted to step in, the warlock knew that Xuza would need to do this on her own. The white fluid behind Azux begins moveing furiously as if charging.Azux laughs..
" Heheheh you still don't get it do you? I AM YOU! You can't hurt me if you cant acknowledge that. "
The Amalgam makes no move against the swipe. As Xuza's blade reaches its target the Amalgam laughs as Xuza's skin is marked instead of her own. Azux gets closer to taunt Xuza .

A short cry from the meister signaled that the attack had indeed worked--or whatever it was. Xuza didn't know what to think of what was going on now, confused and unable to hold a thought in her trembling mind long enough to formulate a plan. She had been oscillating back and forth again, and each time she reverted to her younger self she felt the pain anew. Xuza used her warping ability to fall back, while her alter-ego pulled shrapnel from the earlier attack (floating spheres) and hurled them at Azux with the hope of either damaging her or perhaps jamming a frequency which might have allowed for this.
"Go. Away."

Azux takes the damage full on; her body ragdolling as her limbs and bones are broken. Xuza might take it as a sign of progress but Decus knew better. Azux starts laughing as she twists and contorts.

(Kansō; lit. Express Equipmentary) - Like his sister Decus can use Kansō. This can be used for simple or for combat-related purposes. Decus is more skilled in using it, as he can equip different weapons in battle with in rapid succession,but cannot equip armor at the same rate. 1 post cool down for weapons.
Demonic Possession Magic: - This particular form of Magic allows the user to assimilate the powers and forms of different demons by touch. This magic gives Decus a variety of different abilities such as flight, enhanced speed, strength, reflexes etc depending on the demon. Decus has also shown a versatile use, allowing him to use the natural powers of the demons he's killed without fully taking their form. However, Decus must actually have defeated the demon before being able to use their form.
Demonic Possession,Tsuki Shugoshin (Moon, Guardian Deity): - When the Twin Moon sister finally established the Clan it was said they each had one champion disciple. Each mastering Yin or Yang respectively,and becoming the first masters of the Yakō,and Yaso . In this form Decus can command the Yin and Yang with in himself at will with great control. The main ability being that the Yin he exudes purifies evil,while the Yang uses evil to empower the user. However,this form can only be maintained at night and is affected by the moons presence. (Last 8 post 7 post cool down)
Demonic Possession,Tsuki no Usagi(Moon Rabbit):: -This demonic possession is one where enhanced Ying-Yang energy morphs his body incredibly as well to grant him demonic levels of strength. After an explosion of raw power, Decus appears older as far a physical body structure. His skin becomes the color of dark chocolate,hair is turned pure silver, elongated to run down past his shoulders. Aster gains appendages atop his head that strangely resemble ears,as well as blade-like protrusions coming out from his forearms. In this form he utilizes a advance form of Atsu. This is a technique that provides him with the ability to project his power using glyphs,but he only has dominion within the space the glyph inhabits. (last 7 post 6 post cool down)
Harmony of the Twin Moon: - Decus draws the Twin Moon swords and strikes them together producing a magnificent sound. Afterward the glyph of his Palm appears under him, and white-black flames of Lunar energy erupt from the ground. The flames cries out an eerie moan immediately followed by the sound of prayer chants in the form of a hymn that echoes throughout the immediate area, often confusing those who witness the transformation process.During the hymn itself, Decus's is encase in a sphere and his skin turns pure white. His powers proceeded to merge into one form, one that combined aspects from both his demonic and lunar traits in a perfect harmony. As the hymn nears its end,his Palm becomes golden and spreads over the sphere like runes.Once he channels his Lunar power thru his swords he makes a diagonal swing that causes the sphere to shatter like glass and reveal his forms true beauty. He gains a skeletal mask with horns,and his coat an hair both turn white with black ruffles on the cuffs and edges of the robe, as well as gains a long, black horn with a portion of bone covering left side of his head.(last 10 post 5 post cool down).
Meidō Zangetsuha (Dark Path Slashing Moon Wave) - Decus concentrates and condenses a lot of negative energy before releasing it at the tip of the blade, magnifying the slash attack, that flies forward. This slash takes the shape of a crescent moon or wave. Decus has used this technique in several different manners, such as striking the ground to create an omnidirectional blast to knock away incoming attacks or slashing at the ground to upturn it and crush everything in its path, or a barrage of blades that ripped apart whatever they hit. The energy used is very heavy and dense,and gains momentum the longer it travels.( 1 post to invoke the technique into the blade. 2post cool down for small-medium crescents,4 for a large crescent/arc.)
It was at this moment, this instant between breathing, impossible to scream, that Xuza, wide-eyed, knew she wasn't going to be able to defeat this one as she had done with all her previous opponents. She was taken clean off her feet by the blast and sent some ten feet away--an impressive distance for an electrical attack. Cold but burnt, immobile by all means but a writhing mess, Xuza was fighting her own body to get up. A thick moment dripped by with garbled noises from the meister. Finally, oscillating so as to appear glitchy, she was able to stand before her shadow-self again.
“I don’t know what you want, but--” “You’re just another obstacle,” interrupted her future self. “You’ve been obsolete for quite a while now.” “--but I’ll make sure you know exactly who you’re messing with too! It goes both ways. And--” “Maybe you’d be better off as a training program…” “And after all… I know everything you can do as well.” The past iteration of Xuza showed a smirk, but the future variation seemed perturbed, ready to vanquish anything in her way--even if it was technically herself.
Frail, damaged Xuza reeled back and warped choosing to change locations to several feet above them. She fell and warped again--as many times as she could get away with to generate power. She was hoping to goad Azux into chasing her.

Despite how it might have looked Decus could tell Xuza was making progress. However, Azux couldn't be beaten in the traditional sense. Almost every being had two sides. A shade is merely the representation of the darkness in ones soul. It wasn't something one could defeat, as there must always be a balance. Ying and Yang must exist for Order to be maintained. No matter her power Xuza wouldn't be able to win if she did not realize this. Azux laughs glitching as well.
" THE OBSOLETE ONE IS YOU! I refuse to carry a weak queen. With you in control Paradox will surely kill us. I simply refuse to let your weakness drag us down! "
The Amalgam's takes off toward Xuza. Her warps appearing in the opposite location as Xuza. However, instead of charging her wings she seemed to be channeling the power into her weapon. The warlock looked on in silence .
-A double-bladed glaive, which appears to be made of polished gold and ivory that was created in a way that it increases its powers when cutting a evil spirit or demon. The glaive was forged from the gold of the two sacred wells of the Twin Moon Clan,the and is known to be able to stand up against powerful demonic and magical beings. The glaive is also capable of splitting the weapon into two smaller swords, allowing for quick slashing attacks.
b]Robe of the Lunar Sage: -The armors most notable feature is the polished golden mask , which is set in the shape of a stylized Sun with nine circular indentations arrayed symmetrically across the mask's face. The armor consist of a white robe draped in gold lined patterns that extend over the sleeves, hood and coat. The robe also features red diamond-shaped patterns that run down along the chest to form a chain at the legs and also down his sides. The robe itself features gold rings of metal around the base of the arms and also splits apart just below the waist to allow for fluid movement in combat. For footwear the armor provides white-leather gold-toed boots with heels, making him appear somewhat feminine, but eloquently stylized and tall. It offers great defense against demonic energies. As a cosmetic affect if Decus sheds blood it promptly turns into golden feathers before disappearing.
Active Techniques/Abilities: Atsu.
Yōgōdō Kiyome (, " Yang Assimilaton of the Body" : Due the the blessing of the Twin Moon sisters Decus's can use negative energies to enhance his body physically,and has a natural resistance to them. This is built on the conception of altering ratios between Yang and Yin on the body itself. Decus basically makes Yang more dominant than Yin in every part of his body, while leaving a very small Yin amount. This would enhance his bodies physical attributes at the cost of clouding his mind. Using this for extended periods of time can even lead to Decus succumbing to madness.
Eye of the Swordsman: This innate ability is one that is relatively simple in nature, but complicated in use. The Eye allows any possessing this skill to accurately gauge the fighting ability of their opponent, not by Spiritual Energy but rather by body language and the subconscious signals one gives off from their body. This also allows Decus to somewhat predict the movements of his opponents moments before they occur by analyzing their bodies and familiarizing himself with the motions of an opponent, in essence "reading" an opponent before they get the opportunity to actually enact their actions. This ability is simply result from the immense amounts of experience that Decus possesses in the field of swordsmanship. That being said, these may be taught to others through rigorous training and instruction yet may not be copied as it is not truly an "ability" rather a process done subconsciously.
--------------------------------------------------------- Mikazuki Rasengan(Three Days' Moon Spiralling Sphere) - Decus creates a white,or black orb of dense lunar energy that shines with a blinding white light,or contains a darkness deeper than night. This orb then forms a crescent moon with a star in the center. Decus must then make physical contact with the opponent similar to a Soul Menace technique.This tends to launch the target spiraling backward after being hit or, if the target is lying on the ground they will launched to the ground, the destructive force is enough to form a crater. Decus is able to throw the Rasengan, making it a mid-range projectile technique also. This is his most common technique.
Atsu ( Pressure): -Decus's signature technique that allows him to manipulate the shockwaves by channeling his power through his sword. He can send the shockwaves by swinging or just simply moving his sword. The direction of the force can be upwards, downwards, or sideways,but he is only able to only use one direction at a time. 4 post cool down.

Xuza grit her teeth at the shade's taunts. It really wasn't so hard to get her riled up, but there was just something about Azux that really bothered Xuza. Obviously, one doesn't take quickly to making friends with a being composed of their lowest qualities...
Having had quite enough of this, Xuza decided it was time to stir things up a a bit; this whole thing with the warping was proving so fruitless that either would sooner become dizzy than draw blood on the other. She used a portion of her EM energy and propelled herself straight at Azux.

Decus watches as Xuza makes the first move. Watching this battle was beneficial to his purposes as well. With his Eye of the Swordsman he was getting used to the duo's movements able to more accurately predict the next move. The warlock was sure Azux would try to land a critical blow. Azux would oscillate showing another saddened version of Xuza.
" You sound just like her......Think your better than me! WE ARE THE SAME BEING! "
The Amalgam's simply glares at Xuza. The once maniacal face strangely calm but somewhat disappointed. She closes her eyes preparing to stab Xuza;even if she didn't make contact she would release the concentrated lightning from her rapier and engulf then both.

For a brief moment Xuza furrowed her brow at Azux, who seemed to take on another expression. There wasn't any time to analyse it, however, as the senior met her doppelganger's attack with an electrically charged clash. Both of them would have to have taken severe damage from this. Xuza, despite herself, wouldn't let it go; the words had finally hit her.
"You take that back! I'm nothing like her!" She barked as blades trembled in the mad-made storm. The madness had begun to seep in, and it was at this point Xuza lost control over herself. Her aura began to heat up, and soon she wasn't even holding her opponent at a stalemate. Rather, she was seething, cackling and pulling at her face with her nails. Her sword took on a bright orange glow in front of her, and it would continue to amass energy until, with a flick of her wrist, enough thermal energy would be released to scorch them both.
... When the dust settled, Xuza was a lump of charred flesh and blood on the ground.

Decus curses as the duo kamakazi each other; the warlock shielding his eyes with his cloak. When the dust settled all he saw was a chunk of charred flesh. He leaps down to survey the damage.
" It has always been one sided between you two. Always asking things of your shade; calling on your raw emotions for power like thier just tools to be used or a weapon to be wielded when convenient. If you cannot fully recognize Azux as part of yourself, then your power won't manifest in its true form and therefore will always be weaker than what it's actually capable of. You both need to acknowledge each other, and come to an understanding. When such a understanding is reach this there is no way that your shade's sword can hurt you. "
The warlock gets in closer to inspect the remains more closely. Though the scene before him was grotesque and would make anyone else's stomach churn, the Warlock was use to such sites. he doubted Xuza was dead, but he couldn't be completely sure. Still he thought it best not to stay any longer than he had been.
" It really is a shame, Xuza. You hold so much power and potential for a greater beginning, but instead waste it by rejecting a big part of yourself. I look forward to when we can meet again.... Under different circumstances of course."

The energy used is very heavy and dense,and gains momentum the longer it travels.( 1 post to invoke the technique into the blade. 2post cool down for small-medium crescents,4 for a large crescent/arc.)
