Sighing lightly he took his hand back and pressed two fingers to his forehead as if he'd lost patience trying to teach a child. With his free hand he pointed to her and waved his finger ever so slightly.
"Old man? Should I call you little girl then? Or would you prefer minor?"
The wave of his fingers were more than met the eye as he'd sent off two small wind based slashes through the space between them. There was no visual warning, not even an audible warning, it would be as if something, yet nothing cut small slits into Rae's net shirt.
"Now,"
He said facing her once more.
"let's dance."
A strong wind erupted from him and centered itself around Rae before it threatened to thrust her back to where she recently sat.

"Hey!" scream Rae shouted as he slashed at her top, and then she was crossing her arms over her face as his wall of wind tried to fling her back.
The girl sliced one had through the wind, wildly flinging her own, unknown power into his as a thin shield of hardened air formed between her and the sudden wind storm.

Reinhart concentrated his storm into a cone with it's sharper edge pointed towards Rae's own. He backed it himself and forced it through the opposing wind like a drill through wood. Once through he'd close the small gap between them, with his arm cocked back he'd let lose a devastating right to Rae's abdomen.
Of course he hated hitting woman but hell, he had no choice and hitting her mid section was better than busting one of her lips. He only hoped this would knock the wind out of her long enough for him to follow up and knock her out in order to get them BOTH out of hte Void.

Rae was rather shocked at the existence of the shield, but watching the man cut through it had her on edge, so she was not blind as to his oncoming fist.
The girl jumped back slightly as he punched out, her hands coming down to grab at his outstretched wrist as she tried to tug him towards her, and off balance. The wind was forgotten in that moment as Rae hopped up with a simple jump kick aimed at his chin.

He lsot a step but wasn't left defenseless. Throwing his left side back he let Rae's foot fly past his face as he twisted his caught hand and latched onto one of hers. With his free hand he hooked his arms around her leg and left her to balance on him and one foot. Reinhart swung Rae around to his left more than likely taking her balance out from under her and spun her once before attempting to hurl her in a random direction.
Assuming she wouldn't be able to hang on he'd slip free of her grasp and she'd tumble through the vast empty 'floor'. Though her nails concerned him he did wear bracers under his sleeves up to his wrists, it wouldn't have been hard for Rae to notice it by now either. He imagined his jacket was about to get ripped and maybe a portion of his hand since it was only protected by bandages.
Ah well, you gotta give a little to get a little he told himself as he hurled the petite girl savagely across the Void.

"Crap..." sweatdrop Rae manged to hold onto her sense of direction enough to give him a good kick in the stomach and to tear his coat and hand to shreds before she went tumbling though the air!
She tumbled fairly well for a few moments before she figured out how to stop herself and rolled into a crouch, waiting to see what happened next and wondering how the hell there was wind in a place so empty. xp

Her nails tore right through his jacket, the bandages around his hands, and his hands. Something was off however, his flesh was cut into but the blood that leaked through his wounds didn't leave his hand. As a matter of fact it wrapped itself around it like the bandage Rae had torn. Reinhart looked to Rae.
"Kitty has claws."
He said with a vicious smirk, his aura still smoked over him like a wildfire and showed no signs of dying out. With his 'bloody' hand he gestured for Rae to come to him then continued.
"Here kitty kitty kitty."

Her shoulders slumped for a moment, showing that she was definitely not having fun, and then she looked at him with those chaotic orange eyes, a swirl of fire dancing deep within as she stood back up and slowly walked back towards him.
She was humming under her breath, although she never realised it. Rae changed her stride from a walk to a dead out run for the last few feet between then. Just before she was within reaching distance she dropped down into a sliding kick aimed at his knees.

Reinhart reached into the inside of his jacket as Rae approached, she'd taken the bait and he hoped to make her pay for it. As she broke into her short run he planted his feet and vaulted over Rae as she went into her slide. Twisting in mid air he pulled his hands out of his jacket now in mid air looking down at Rae, he held eight spikes, four in each hand and let them lose on the sliding girl.
They cleared the small space between them like lightening and sliced the air like razor sharp blades. Like oversized needles they'd stick Rae and pierce flesh with ease. Precision was key and each spike was driven to strike Rae's joints starting from the bottom working their way up. Two in each thigh, two in each shoulder, and two in each arm. When he landed and cleared the air he'd be facing her and waiting for either a counter or for her cries of pain.

Rae had ducked into a roll as she harmlessly passed under Reinhart, trying to use a bit of her momentum to get the hell way from him again.
There was a cry of pain as one of the spikes speared into her lower left calf, another managing to snag in her long hair. The spike dug deep in her calf and halted her roll and she flung her left hand out towards him, a basket ball sized orb of black fire flickering into existence and hurtling towards him.

Well that was dissapointing. He'd expected to catch rae totally off guard but found the girl was a bit more resourceful than he'd given her credit for. Cuaght in his moment he was almost caught by Rae's counter attack but he recovered with just enough time and managed a spin to his right. Her blast of black fire (which impressed him much) singed his left side and charred his jacket all the way up to his shoulder.
However, as he spun he reached behind his back and pulled two more spikes from it. When he completed the spin and faced Rae again he let two fly at Rae. They whistled through the air intent on striking her shoulder and arm. For all it was worth he was trying to incapacitate the girl before he resorted to really hurt her. It was the memory of Raven that kept him from ripping Rae apart.

Rae threw out both hands as she spotted something in his hands, she didn't think, she just reacted! There was an instant of air rushing in towards her and then the air all round the girl exploded outwards in a concussion blast wave! HonoRaven/Rae's Techniques, Book of Wind Concussion Blast:An inwards rush of air towards the subject of the technique signals the onset of this ability. Just as in a true explosion, air is forced away from the site in a crushing ball or sphere shape. The force of the explosion of air can easily bend metal, tear buildings to shreds and flying debris and turn a body to just so much raw meat. The main difference between an explosion and this technique is the lack of an actual explosive device. There was no debris within the void, but Reinhart's spikes would be sent back at him at the very least with the force of the blast.

Narrowing his eyes he sucked his aura inward and then he ran headlong into the force of Rae's blast. Like a fish swimming ustream he went against the current aided by one of his innate abilities.Cristopher Reinhart Psychic Breach - A double edged skill which harms it's user as well as it's target. By using psychic influences one is able to create psychic forces to attack, defend, or invade a targets mind. Although allowing the user the abilities of a psychic it also puts a great amount of strain to both the body and mind. Use of this skill is limited, length of this skill is dependant on the user, may not be combined with other skills.
This should definitely catch the girl off guard and once again he planned on slamming his fist into her mid section. Unable to use any other skill he had to rely on his physical strength to perform an effective counter. If his first blow was successful he'd follow up with an elbow to Rae's ribs with his opposite arm.
Going for the body was the strategy here, he still couldn't picture himself cracking into Hono's face.

Rae's eyes were wide and showing far too much white around the edges... she looked like a deer caught in the headlights for a moment as he cut through whatever she had done.
But her hands were still out and her body reacted again where her mind refused to follow. Her left hand slashed out at his face as his punch knocked all the wind out of her...and attempted to rearrange her internal organs at the same time.
Her free hand went for his chest, claws easily slicing through cloth as she attempted to send a nice little bolt of electricity directly into him.

Blood would stain them both as Rae's nails dug into Reinhart's cheek and left three inch long gashes almost reaching his lips. He was going for a follow up but Rae managed to take the initiative and slash at his chest. Luckily for him he wore a breastplate under his shirt which was now nearly torn to ribbons. Of course his armor only provided limited protection so he also wore gashes down his abdomen.
He caught her wrist on it's descent before she could rock him with electricity and if the source came directly from her it'd travel through him then dissipate aroudn them. As this happened an apparition layered Reinhart like a cloth and quickly dissapeared with the lightening. Twisting her wrist with brute force he'd slam his free hand into the center of her chest. His vise like grip on her however would not waver and much like before he'd spin her and sling her to one side.
Rae would fall over easily as her leg was injured and more than likely skid across the ground or whatever it was that held them both up.
