"You have the spirit of a warrior, but you are still just a foolish little girl. You cannot become better if you are killed. Know your opponents before you jump in and attack. Our last fight you were wise to use water against me, but as you can see you no longer have that advantage."
Spreading his arms to emphasize the fact that there hadn't been running water in the Memory for quite some time.
"And unless you have gained a very powerful knowledge of water in the short time...you will be in serious trouble."
Hefting the Flameberg back onto his shoulder he started trudging towards 9, the heat began to grow more intense as he grew closer. She could do some damage if she played her cards right, but Nal wasn't going to explain to her how to kill him.

The stranger looked back and forth slowly at the edge of the city.It was the place,and it wasn't the place.He needed to know how and why.He didn't know however,what it was or who.He felt that somewhere deep inside him,his pleasant visit had been dangerous to his health.His entire being had been shattered completely."Unless....But...Why...?"He spoke to himself outloud,without note or care.He caught the scent of a couple of odd things,but was sort of spacey at the moment.

9 quickly moved back. She growled softly as she tried to think of a way to fight the flames. An electrical aura started to build around her, helping her fight off the heat slightly.
Planting her right foot into the ground she pushed off and leaped into the air. She gabbed at his upper right thigh with the short sword, trying to cut into his flesh.
"If I live will you teach me."

Nal's body was a tank! His muscles absorbed the attack, and his flesh withstood the blade. He growled as he looked down at 9. As he warned her before, he was in no mood to be angered. The little buzzing of a woman, with nothing but a short sword, which would be considered a dagger to Nal, and a dagger, which would have been a tooth pick, to call weapons. Raising the Flameberg high over his head he drove down, with the prommel of the weapon, trying to slam the back of her head.

The two were impossible to mistake at this distance.Though his skills were shabby,he easilly could recognize them.Nal was dead obvious.The girl was a bit hazy.He knew they were there though.Shrugging he wondered to himself.He needed to know,but he doubted they'd know.Taking a seat in the dirt he took his plain longsword from his back and let it rest across his lap.His two guns were snug and secure at his sides as he thought.

9 took the blow to the back of the head and fell to the ground. She ground softly as she picked herself up and shook her head a few times. Her aura only grew stronger as she tried to steady herself and not fall over. There was a sharp pain in the back of her heard now that made it hard to focus. 9 started watched his movements and got an idea. She hopped on top of his left foot, trying to drive her short sword into the leather f his shoe.

As 9 lept on to Nal's shoe he would kick, upwards, and send her vaulting into the air.
"She has the right idea, but she doesn't know how to use her knowledge..."
Nal drew a deep breath and held the Flameberg out infront of him. Growling, low and loud, he started a charge at 9.
"Watch her movements, she's fast and will try and use that against you. Peaceful, like Lan told me."
"I'm going to crush you!! RAAAH!!"
His heavy body slammed against the streets as he charged. The intent on actually harming the little woman was no where to be seen in the way he moved, or in his eyes. He respected the little woman to much to actually kill her. She actively sought a rematch when someone disturbed their last fight, that was enough to grant her respect, but she also sought new knowledge. A warrior's spirit to be found in someone so young was an oddity, and Nal wasn't going to snub out a candle's flame before it had to potential to roar brighter then the Flame Lord himself!

9 couldn't help but to let to a soft joyful laugh as he sent her flying through the air. She landed on the ground in a low. Her short sword was gone now, still stuck in his shoe. 9 sighed as she put up her dagger and started running. His charge was easy for her to avoid but getting back up onto his feet was going to be a harder matter.
As soon as his left foot hit the ground, 9 made a jump for it, grabbing onto his shoe and pulled her self back up to the sword. The air around her was fully charged and as she reached for the hilt and tried to use the electrical charge it fizzled out to be nothing but then a miner shock.

Nal growled, loudly as he skid to a halt. The little woman wouldn't stop attacking his bloody foot! Swinging the Flameberg, in a full swipe, he tried to use the blunt of the blade and slam her into, litterally into, a nearby house. He was trying to be patient with her, but she was so damn annoying!

The stranger shrugged slightly and got up.Moving closer and closer.Unless obstructed or stopped,he would continue onwards.To explore the place.Starting at the same street he had before,and following the same path to the tower.If all went well that is.His sword returned to it's place on his back.He had a two other weapons ready to snap into place at any time,though he didn't know how or where he'd gotten them.

*Mastema smirked to himself, paying attention to himself while he sat in his bed with Nana against him. Seeing this was amusing him, Zeno was sitting on a nearby house in The Memory, observing the fight. The girl had no real use to him. For intruding on his citadel, Mastema would have Zeno kill her should Nal fail to do so*

9 with pale as she saw the blade come at her.
"Oh god..."
As the blade hit she went flying once again. With the aura now drained there was nothing to help with the rebound. Her back hit flat against the building then she fell face first onto the ground. She moaned softly as she tried to pick herself up a few times. It was hard to breath after being thrown around and having the wind knocked out. 9s body trembled slightly as she finally made it back up to her feet.
"Will you train me?"
9 asked softly as she limply stood there. Her head was still held high as she tries to keep her composer.

Nal growled and wrapped his massive hand around 9's head. He continued growling loudly as he pulled her into the air, but strangly he wasn't crushing her skull. He held her in the air, growling loudly at the fist closed around 9's head

She was weakened and hurtly some from there match. 9 didn't cry out in fear as he grabbed her. She knew he could kill her when ever he wanted to. She closed her eyes as she waited for him to make up his mind.
