Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ichi continued to gaze at the two fighters. Her attentionspan snapped in two and she looked up at the ceiling and closed her eyes, probably trying to remember something she forgot to do earlier today. She looked back down at the two fighters and scratched the back of her head. She leaned back into the seat and twiddled her thumbs as she watched.

While the increasing heat is finally becoming noticable, Taliman still seems unbothered. He isn't even sweating. He either has a will of iron, actually being able to stop his bodily functions from trying to cool him off, or he simply isn't that hot. The wind is actually quite nice, though. A canyon found in the southeast region of Tonep has natural consistent winds that overpower the likes of this several times over. It is within this gorge that Wesley trains at times, when not using his own gravity-based chamber.

As if alerted by some unknown force, Taliman suddenly looks over his right shoulder, taking a gander back at Sephiroth. His expression is blank, void of any concern as his singular blue orb gives the boy a quick once over. He then gives Sephiroth a slight grin, his expression stained with cockiness as he turns back to the battle. The warriros currently fighting are moving at a painfully dull rate of speed, but are at least using what abilities they have to their advantage. The demonic lord can tell neither of them are going all-out, which he finds somewhat silly given their respective battle strengths. Of course, there's no need to start a fuss. Not yet, anyway. So he'll keep that nugget to himself.

As soon as she felt Zero being pulled away from her, her brown tail released him and curled right back up around her waist. There was still a smirk on her face as she and Zero were both sucked into the tornado, glad she had made good contact.

Within the tornado she could feel the wind whipping visciously around her, narrowing her green eyes as the winds spun her around as well. She spotted Zero moving in closer, throwing a barrage of punches her way. The girl threw her arms up and around to block as many as she could. She took some hits to her shoulders, but nothing she couldn't bounce back from.

Her green eyes watched each of Zero's moves carefully, waiting. There it was. One of the punches headed for her face again and she shifted to the side. Jade let his fist just graze her cheek as she moved in swiftly, bringing up her left elbow for his neck, braced by her right arm behind it.

Jade caught sight of the spark, narrowing her eyes. That explained things, he was an android. But that information didn't help her current situation much.

She looked up at him as he spoke, moving swiftly to try and get up as close to him as she could. Her eyes watched the ki ball forming in his hand facing her as he spoke. He smiled at her, and she returned the gesture, although, her smile suddenly seemed very cold and a bit cruel.

THe blast came towards her, blowing up as it seemed to hit her. For a moment, she was lost to sight inside the explosion of the blast. But from with in the smoke came a swift and very narrow black beam, aiming for Zero's shoulder. It wasn't very strong, but dense, almost like it was a bullet, meant for cutting.

While the smoke was swirled around within the tornado, a sphere could be seen within the center of the cloud. Jade's aura was a black color now, with gold streaks flicking through it. Through the aura could be seen Jade, ebony wings curving delicately towards her front. Her face was different though, wearing a cold looking smile across her lips.

In an instant her black wings spread wide, launching her out of the flames a top speed and straight for Zero, her right fist swinging for his head, and a cold laugh ringing from her throat.
