Welcome to Gaia! ::

Taizen turned so that he was horizontal to Kazuki, then he sent his arms out, gathering snow, the pre-empt for strike number one... once he had the snow ready, he struck out with the back of his right fist, If Kazuki and him had been in a fist fight, he'd have been knocked in the jaw, the snow leapt up immedeatly, he made the second strike, the strike that Changed the snow in seperate, compact shards, as those flew towards Kazukio, he blocked an invisible blow, by waving his left hand in front of him, the snow responded by pulling up, and infront of him, if the Ice Shards missed, or not, he'd continue with the Strikes, two punches, and an uppercut, Each movement, causing a seperate action.

Taizen continued with his Strikes, like that could stop him.. The two punches compacted the snow into a ball, and with the two punches, the ice balls flew back towards Kazuki, he made the uppercut, not bothering to bend water, the snake strake hidden by the uppercut, no bending on that to, Kazuki was getting closer... 9th strike... he lefted his left leg and smashed his left fist into his right palm, in a fistfight, Kazuki's head would have been... well.. not pulverized, but for sure aching, bending, however, proved more lethal, on both sides of Kazuki, a wall of moving ice on his right, and flurry of snow shards on the right, meant to impale Kazuki.((Leaving.. ;.; ))

Taizen had only a bit of time to gasp, and cry out, as he felt the air being continually pummeled out of his stomach, as he flew into the air he vaguely remembered Kazuki grabbing him, he felt his arms being spread out, and being, either hugged, or chocked, maybe both, They were still in the air, he could feel the coolness of the ice sword, was Kazuki serious? He would kill him? "Oh please, like northern benders are so normal that you can't beleive that..." He thought angrily, as they began to descend, Taizen made the appearance of surrender, not struggling at all, but before they landed, he brought his knee up, precisely to where the evidence of Kasuki's Gender would be, as he had hoped, Kazuki's grip became less tight, Pushing his hands away, sword and all.

Now that his hands were free, and he was on the ground, Taizen's right hand went into mantis-style, to deliver two blows, one to his stomach, to knock the air out of him, and the other, a back-handed-uppercut, into his jaw, He backed away quickly, his left hand streaming water, in a whip, he held it up in defense, his right hand below the wrist of his right, holding his bending in place. "I surrender!' he said quickly before he could receive the speedy Rebuttal Kasuki non-doubtedly had waiting, either in the form of a spin, cartwheel, backflip, lunge, etc. all he knew was that he should have made it clear that he didn't want to fight to the death.

Taizen Let out a bubble of air, as he felt jets of extreme pressure hit him all over his body, the globe of water dissapeared and He was left gasping, "Oh.. you.. Sore loser!" He called after him through the smoke, even though deep inside Taizen knew that Kasuki had every right to do what he had done., afterall, he felt Kasuki was being Leniant, he would have MUCH worse. The fottsteps that had Kasuki retreat were getting closer, he didn't want to explain why he was beat up out near the tower, and in the residue of a smoke bomb, otherwise evidence might point towards him for the masked bender, He got zaway as the smoke cleared.

As he lay in his cot reading a scroll on the medicinal properties of Lichen he rubbed a particularly sore bruise.

(( gonk You just did the Jyuken on poor Taizen! meanie!... anyway, i got to sleep. see you tomorrow, G'night.))

Kazuki walked out his house fully reguvinated from the fight. He streched and started to walk around his hands in his pockets under his blue cloak. "What a beautiful Moroning" Kazuki said smiling and then saw two guys chasing a woman and attacking her with water whips. "Great, now my morning is ruined." he said runing across the bridge and then jumped down onto the icy ground standing infront of the lady.

The lady stoped to take a breath "Please help me" she said grabing Kazuki's shirt, Kazuki stared at the two guys not talking to the lady she then ran behind him. The two guys ran twords them and then the first one stoped "Oh come on lady, we just want to play" he called out launching the whip The second guy ran twords them to and stop "Yeah, come on and play with us for a while." he said launching his whip
Kazuki smiled and then pulled his hands into the air creating a wall of ice deflecting the whips

"You should run from me now guys" Kazuki said pushing the ice wall down to water and walked twords them "Ah its Kazuki, run!" called out a guy running and then the next on stumbled and ran "No so fast you two" he said moving his hands around his body from the right to the left then into the air back to the forward of his body creating icicles out of them their arms and legs frozzen and their heads sticking out. Kazuki then jumped onto of the bridge leaving the woman by her self know she was fine. Kazuki then walked around the city looking for Taizen.

Taizen though he heard someone, he had just gotten to sleep, and now someone was coming to see him? Great.. just great.. Taizen, reluctantly opened his eyes, and looked around, he could see a feminine shape shadowing his doorway, "O shoot!" He said scrambling up out of bed, and awkwardly bending the last of the water from his Canteen into a whip, holding his right hand back, and his left hand forwards, the Water was taught, and seemed stretched like leather, The stance and apearance Taizen had, gave him the appearance of Holding an invisible bow, while holding an aarow. "W-W-what do you want?" He asked tired, Kazuki seemed healed to perfection, Taizen didn't know how he did it!

"Yeah..." Taizen said slowly, still holding the Whip high, "you really, shouldn't scare people like that..." he said lowering the whip abit, "Otherwise you might get a waterwhip to the face..." He said under his breath returning the water to the Canteen and grabbing up the scroll. "Yes, it's a scroll, about the medicinal uses of plantlife, here in the south and north pole..." He said making sure to not say too much. "Well, anything that involves the north and south pole plant life..."

Taizen had come across that kind of poison before, but hadn't taken much interest in it, as the ingredients were too hard to find, The same could be said about the paralyzes potion he planned to brew, but it would be harder to bend something like that, then a thick paste, "I've heard about it, It's similar to the anesthetic firebenders used after the war, They couldn't get any waterbenders to come to the firenation and heal they're sick, so they made a potion that puts them to sleep, so that they could rest, and/or operate without them knowing..." he said aloud eying the liquid, "How long ago did you make it? Those ingredients, i heard could take ages to find...."
