Welcome to Gaia! ::

Wolf smiled and began moving forward more quickly, as he did he twisted his torso so that he was charging Crystal with his right shoulder facing her and the hilt of his blade pointing towards her while the blade angled across his chest. His left sleeve trailed slightly behind him outlining the shape of his upper left arm which ended at the elbow. His eyes flashed as he charged and prepared to twist his body forward and bring his blade around in a diagonal slash that would be aimed from Crystal's right hip to left shoulder.

As Crystal blocked his blade and moved to attack with the bolas, Wolf used his momentum to pivot on his left leg as it hit the ground and twisted so that his body lowered to stomach level, his head dropped under the swing of the bolas and his eyes took on a fanatic look as they saw the blunt objects speed by. As he twisted his left sleeve was pulled forward from the momentum and sped towards Crystal's right knee. The weighted end had been put in place to compensate for the lack of a hand and now was being used in a parody of the attack she had just used against him. His twist also brought his katana over his torso so that he could defend in the awkward semi backbend position.

As Wolf's legs were knocked out from under him he let them return to a neutral position so that when he hit the ground he could simply roll off of his shoulders and onto his right knee as opposed to pulling a back muscle from landing badly. His grin had not faded and if anything he seemed to be enjoying himself more and more by the moment. As he rose into a crouch he set himself for his next attack, this time he would see how she attacked and if she didn't he'd simply test her reaction speed. His blade was held horizontally across his body and his scarf hung limply over his right shoulder and the tip seemed to rest against the back of his wrist.

Wolf moved forward and to his left suddenly, straightening his arm and raising his blade to deflect the short sword even as the motion of his moving arm snapped the scarf over his shoulder and made it swing around his neck to swing in an arc towards her right side. Even as he did this the stub of his left arm was swung up so that the sleeve of his left arm swung upward in an effort to wrap the end around her arm. Wolf figured it would be difficult though not impossible for her to dodge completely so he shifted his weight in preperation of bringing his knee up to follow up the attacks he had already launched.

Several things were about to become evident to crystal, one was that the scarf did have a mind of it's own and control of it's movement. This would be learned as the scarf twisted after passing her and moved up and back in an attempt to wrap around her throat. The second would be that Wolf somehow had control over the actual fibers of his coat, this would show as they reknit themselves nearly as fast as her blade cut them. The final surprise would be show as he jabbed towards her solar plexus with the hilt of his katana and was that his right arm had suddenly sprouted a six inch dewclaw along the outer bone. If she dodged the jab she would also need to dodge the claw. Wolf was happy however simply in finding an oponent that responded well to variables and seemed to be a cunning fighter.

Wolf ignored the sensation of his hackles rising as she drew on whatever power she had. His eyes flared however and he said quickly before beginning to jab repeatedly at her sternum, Ah good, I had decided to not use any offensive magic until you did so do your best and make this fun. As he spoke he kicked at her left ankle with his right foot and swung his shoulders to pull the end of the scarf towards him. He didn't know whether she would be in a hurry to get it away from her or if she would hold onto it to prevent it's use. Either way was of little concern to him at the moment.

Wolf laughed and released her stepping back to put room between them as she fell. He smiled and stretched slowly his eyes flashing as he said Oooh now that's interesting. Let's see what else you can do. As he finished speeking his tounge rolled over his teeth.

Wolf held his blade forward and up to draw the electricity away from his head. At the same time, his aura flared and caused the seeds in his gloves to grow, and ground themselves in the ground. When the light cleared vines would be visible cascading down from his hand and wrapping his sword. He smiled and said, Ah I see, electricity eh? Did your friend 9 ever mention Wolf being an earth mage? His coat writhed as though full of snakes and whispers rose upwards from his voice. He snickered as the muscles of his hand spasmed and his blade fell from his hand but remained entangled in the vines of his hands.
