Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dark blinked at this.

"Oh. So you're scared to attack me.....I understand. It's ok"

He proceeded to walk at a steady pace towards the man, assuming nothing. He didn't care for what would happen next, but he did know one thing. He was here for a fight, and he would have one.

( Er....Chris, you're sure you want a fight? Because I don't think I can take anymore of this bullshit. So yeah, either post an attack/response instead of that, and we can trade fists, or I could just go wander out. )

( Meh. You know what I mean. )

Ryudo Kazamaru looked across the playing field and saw a person standing across from him. He remembered this place from before. It was an odd place to say the least. If two people clashed here, at fight's end they were sent back to their original spaces as if nothing had happened. This meant he could allow himself to put everything he had into this battle, without worry of what might happen to him or his opponent...

You... You looking for a fight?

Ryudo could only stare back. He was no human, but he'd let this thing figure that out for itself. Ryudo was a bit annoyed by the being's assault on his mind with its telepathic speaking. Ryudo could do the same thing, although he thought it rude.

Well then... The first move belongs to you...

Ryudo then stood his ground, unmoving. He brandished no weapon of any kind, but he looked determined nonetheless. However, as he stood, he began to ready his mind for battle, feeling his psychic abilities moving into action...

As his opponent rushed at him, Ryudo readied himself for the tricky manuver that lay ahead of him. Inside his head a pulse of psychic energy flowed down across his right arm and then spread out across its length, to form a perfect transparent shield across the whole of his arm, the whole thing glowing a slight purple color.

Ryudo then moved his arm up to block and catch the sword made by his opponent, now forcing the both of them into a clench. As his opponent's sword collided with the shield it sparked and a zapping noise could be heard.

Ryudo's boots dug into the ground as he held off his opponent, his red eyes burning with a challenge...

I'm not so easily defeated!

Or more acurately, MIGHT have happened, that is, if Ryudo didn't follow through with his next attack, which he did. As soon as the clench took place, one might notice that only Ryudo's right arm was covered by the shield. But where was his left?

Ryudo's left arm had moved behind his body when the clench had happened, and as he had done that, he pumped psychic energy into his left hand, and then in one swift movement he unleashed his combo.

He pushed off with his legs and pushed with his right arm, giving him enough force to toss his opponent off of his psychic shield. As that happened, he followed through with his torso's twist, bringing his powered left hand out from behind him and unleashing a powerful psychic blast directly into the body of his opponent!

The blast would be strong enough to toss the average human, which weighed about 150 pounds, nearly ten feet across the ground and through the air.

Just then, Anu might have a desperate need for asprin. Why one might ask? The answer was simple. Ryudo was a shadow dragon in human form, however, in his human form his body was limited to the strength of a human. But his mind was still just as keen. He let out a massive telepathic barrage into Anu's mind. Ryudo flooded his opponent's mind with every thought he could think of. Everything he could think of and remember over his 2,500 years of life came flooding across the channel, and Ryudo pried into Anu's mind as well, forcing his own mind in on his opponent's. Luckily for Ryudo, this required no psychic energy on his part since Anu was the one attempting to hold the psychic bridge, the bridge taking lots of concentration, concentration that would break if flooded with thoughts, and that meant one thing...

Ryudo was free to do as he pleased with his own psychic powers. He let out a powerful burst of mental energy, one that would hopefully cast he and Anu into the realm of thought, a realm outside reality and physical strength. Once in this mental plane, the two psychics would battle it out until one lost...
