Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dark manages to evade the first few hits, and lucky enough, avoids vital damage though he took a few hits hard.
"Tch. I can't keep up... Yet." He mutters after the attacks cease. He's then surrounded by black clouds that spark red lightning. Dragon Dance.
"Now I'm a bit faster and a bit stronger... I'm intrigued at what you can do." Dark says, curious at the magic. He's still not feeling the fight.

"If I ain't fightin' for her she ain't involved." He responds, a bloodthirsty grin stretches across his face. The rocks in the surrounding area tremble as Dark quickly raises his arm and points at Ginji. The sharp, jagged rocks burst from the ground and shoot towards Ginji, Stone Edge.

Dark has never seen anything like that before. Normally his curiosity would kick in but he was too focused.
"Damn." He mutters. Once again the black clouds and red lightning surround him. He's preparing for the worst.

Dark turns only to see the crimson glow in the corner of his eye. He's shot forward and rolls a few times, he ends the roll by pushing onto the ground, bringing himself into the air and lands on his feet. His coat and shirt now had a large hole in the back. Not wasting any time he rips them off and tosses them aside.
"Not bad. But I didn't expect you to forget what I'm made of."
Dark roars, summoning a large amount of electricity into his body. He then shoots it into the sky. A massive bolt of lighting then shoots towards Ginji. Thunder.

The rocks didn't scare him, he felt confident with an Iron Defense under his belt. The lightning and Ginji made him nervous. Blocking most of the rocks, but taking the lightning hard. He jumps and slams down with all his might, causing a massive Earthquake. Small and medium shards of rock penetrate into his skin. He hopes the quake will throw Ginji off.

Dark's eyes widen, well aware he's unable to evade. Being frozen he can't even raise a protect. Bracing himself he takes the attack head on.

Black. That's all he can see. He can't hear anything but a loud ringing noise. His body is numb. Is he dead?
"No... I can't die here... I won't die here. Not to an ally, not like this. I'll choose when I die, I won't let anyone else have the pleasure."

What appears to be the corpse of Dark begins to move. He was knocked far back from where he was standing. Large gashes are found all over his body. His eyes slowly open. He slams his fist into the ground and stands up. Trembling he looks over at Ginji.
"N...Not bad at all..." He grins, seeming like he's having the time of his life.
"I certainly underestimated you. I shrugged you off as another weak Aquan... But no more."
His skin begins to flake, revealing more rock skin underneath.
"Sorry to tell you but you're gonna die here."
Vivid images of his dark past flood into his mind. The calculations of his birth, the fierce training he under went with Magma, the countless number of people he's killed. The joy of killing them seemed to fill his heart, only adding fuel to the fire. Dark lets out a roar.
"NO ONE CAN KILL ME! I WON'T LET ANYONE KILL ME! I AM DARK FIRE, WEAPON OF MAGMA, DESTROYER OF LIVES!" He seems to be speaking on instinct.

Large spikes burst from his back, 4 holes then appear on his upper chest and 2 on his back. His fingers mutate into claws, his arms grow slightly larger and his legs become more firm. His pupils shrink into beady black orbs. His hair turns black and his eyes red like his father. His canine teeth grow out slightly and become razor sharp. Losing all ability to think normally he glares at Ginji like a rabid animal.

He lunges towards Ginji, a large amount of dark energy stored inside his readied fist. A Payback.

Dark looks up, noticing a red glow coming from the sky. He roars, activating his Sand Stream ability, causing a powerful Sandstorm to sweep the area. As the flame descended he watched is move closer. He welcomed it. The flame then consumes him, though weakened slightly by the sand in the air. Before the flames could vanish, a large stream of fire is blown in Ginji's direction. Flamethrower, strengthened by Dark inhaling some of the fire around him.
