Welcome to Gaia! ::

even though it appears Shadow is showing his strength for the first time, he appears to be keeping it limited for some reason. Possibly, he doesnt want to dig any deeper than he is now. What would happen if he still went down deeper is still a mystery. Shadow's aura has been lowered for a various reason as too much power wasnt necessary at this point now. Although his eyes were still glowing. He runs at her at high speed chanting the sign of fire.

Cross felt the intense heat from the shield she summoned. "How can she put up with this?" He questioned himself. "All this heat... It isn't too much for her?" He thought. "No questions!" Waru said. "Just fight." He concluded. Cross had used the stone arm he had to grab onto the shield and flip over it. When he landed on the ground his stone hand was melting and he saw some burns over his skin. "Damn." He said returning his arm back to normal. "Waru I need a little more power." He said to him. "I suppose." He said starting to glow. Cross' body began to glow again. "Okay. Earth Strike: Raging Dragon!" He yelled as he cracked his knuckles and began to open his mouth. He crouched nearly touching the ground and began punching it as pieces of rock ascended over his mouth. Cross began to yell as the rocks rose up making them fly towards Oku with a shockwave following after it. He did this in the same order continuously.

"Dammit. She's coming down onto me quick!" He thought in his mind with panic. "Grounded." He said as his body absorbed into the ground and moved away from Utsuho avoiding her attack. "That was too close..." He said as he rose back up to the ground looking for the girl.

With the sign of fire, Shadow's body combusted into blue dark flames and charges at high speed gathering it in his arm. Upon impact Shadow makes an elven chant translated as green gales. A collision of spiritual and dark power collides at a precise ratio and unleashes onto an incredible force of spirit, darkness, wind and blue fire. It pushes and shatters through the diamond shield, creating a shock wave upon releasing it. As the punch continues through, Shadow lets go of his collaborated attack and gives a powerful knock out blow to the stomach that sounded like recoil from a shotgun fire. The attack he used on the diamond was incomplete, so it has no name yet. But a unique combination that only a child of light and darkness can use.

Patchouli flew back from the attack luckily the diamond was dense enough to absorb most of the impact preventing the attack from killing her, unfortunately it did cause alot of strain on her body as she sat kneeling on the ground frantically gasping for air

Shadow slowly walks up to the panting Patchouli with his cold eyes gazing at her like someones prey. As he stood and looked down at her, it appeared he was about to finish her off. But then, he kneels down and holds his hand out to her. "Can you stand?", he said calmly. Suddenly things began to feel kinda heavy when Uko showed up.

Without much warning Patchouli coughed up some blood before collapsing

"...Wait time out, she's seriously injured" Utsuho announced coming to Patchouli's aid "We need to get her to Plus right away" She added carefully picking up Patchouli
"We withdraw" She told the others looking around the ring "Miss Patchouli please hang in there" She added
