Taizen threw himself into the sky before Fulgar could even hit him with his fire blasts. Soon he found his legs bound with the whip Taizen created. He was still in the air, with a quick moving sweep of his arms the icy whip was severed, he fell to his back quickly bouncing up again. He looked at Taizen, still in the sky, and began thrusting his fist forward from the tips of his two fingers shot balls of flame. In rapid succession he had shot of 4, headed straight for the waterbender.
He panted as he looked upward to see if his attacks had met their mark.

Taizen cursed mentally for the second time during the match, his whip had been severed! Now he only had he was open for direct hits! Luckily, this wasn't a life-or-death battle, and fulgar had taken pity on him, sparing him the pain of any real fire balls. Taizen crossed his arms, covering most of his head, and some of his chest, bringing his legs up to be as compact as possible. He felt a twinge of pain as a fireball collided with his bare hand, ah! He'd never get used to tha pinful sensation! Luckily, one of the other fireballs had missed him by a hair, the other two however, 'luckily' hit his clothing. The worst part about it hittnig his clothing was that the flames could spread. however, they simply made several sparks, after Taizen's 'cocoon' he was atleast lightly armored against fire.
All the same, seconds later when he hit the ground, he made the same movements as before when he had avoided Fulgar's fire Breath. This time, it was one roll, and this time, after launching the snow at Fulgar, he plunged his singed hand into some snow. Willing it to heal. It was hard knowing that Fulgar most likely would not fall for the same trick again. Furthermore, Firebender's tended to attack more often, Taizen winced, his hand hadn't healed. He'd always been able to perform first-aid on himself in his battles, and now he had failed?! It was probably his preoccupied mind, unable to concentrate on the healing process. He froze his the snow around his arm, bringing it up, and brandishing his ice-covered hand like a sword.

The fire attack hit him. It wasnt much, but it was enough to cause some pain. Taizen hit the ground and then stood seconds later with a sword of ice jutting from his hand. It was definitely intimidating to say the least. He did not want to be hit with it. "wow..." Fulgar said under his breath. He stood there for a second staring at the icy blade. He turned his neck resulting in a loud *pop* noise. The waterbender obviously wanted him to attack first, so what the hell? May as well comply.
He threw his hands to the sides leaving his torso open from each hand fire erupted, he smiled as the flames seared his flesh. He looked up once more (AND LASER BEAMS SHOT FROM HIS EYES. lol couldnt resist) and then leaned forward onto the balls of his feet, fire erupted from beneath his leather heels and he shot forward at incredible speed, just as he had in Omashu. Just before he was upon Taizen he let the fire stop, he leaned to the side and let himself fall releasing brilliant blue flame from the palms of his hands. He hit the ground on his shoulder and he winced at the shooting pain the went through it as he hit the ground. He rolled again, still was the throbbing pain in his shoulder. On his feet he created a blade of fire that matched Taizen's of ice.

Taizen quickly tapped his Gauntlet and shot his left hand off of it. The ice Elongated, following Taizen's pull.(Edward elric move O.o) The Gauntlet had become a sword, iTaizen had no fear of losing hold of it, it was after all Connected to his hand. But what he was, atleast a little worried about was the flames shooting out of Fulgar's body. He concentrated on his sword of Ice, on the burn covered by ice. The sheer cold was calming. Now that he knew he was not in danger of being attacked while he was down, Taizen had regained his composure, enough to heal his hand. The healing was signified by a flash of Blue.
"Are you Well...?" Taizen Asked Fulgar, he seemed to be in pain, as though drawing the sword were painful. It was a vicious looking sword, and Taizen had little Idea where it'd come from. All the same, he wasn't afraid of it. He'd faced the swords of Xio, devillish blades that sparked blue with thunder. Fulgar's was as of yet, unintimidating. "Or are you perhaps luring me into a false sense of Security?" Taizen seemed to like this Idea, and placed his right arm, at his left hip. Similar to someone who was getting ready to draw his sword. His left hand resting on his wrist. His hilt, so to speak. Step 1. Waterbending sword style.

Fulgar was almost touched by Taizen's concern, almost. He quickly replied, "just hit my shoulder, is all" he never took his eyes of Taizen. They both brandished blades made of their respective elements. Taizen moved his hand to his hip. Almost as if he were going to draw a blade.
Fulgar acted quickly, they were close now, too close for either to bend, at least Fulgar couldnt bend so closely, he had to rely on the flaming sword that was in his hand. He moved the transparent blade with surgical precision hacking at Taizen. Each stroke just as powerful as the last.

Taizen drew his blade quickly, Fulgar was attacking almost as quickly, as he drew his blade, it was all Taizen could do to knock the blade away, he could feel the heat on his face, but not the flames. What he knew however, was that with each hacking slice, his sword chipped off a bit. Taizen's own energy the only thing keeping the sword from melting immediately. One chip, two chip... Fulgar brought his sword down again, Taizen felt fire meet flesh, he'd cut him! He'd cut through his Ice sword!
However, Taizen never stopped after a small scratch. He still had the basic form of the sword. "SShhhnllss" The sound of blide sliding on Blade. Taizen was quick, his left foot moved forward, his sword gliding upon Fulgar's blade, Taizen's left hand pushing the Blade along. The heat was great, and he could almost smell his hair being burned.
To slide ones blade across the opponents, using they're force to propel your blade. That was the Watertribe way. In more uncivilized times, it was meant to decapitate the enemy, as Taizen wielded it, it was meant to. Leave a long cuton Fulgar's body. His own body folowing the blade closely, so close that Fulgar's blade was bare inches from his back. But if he succeded in pushing him- after slicing him, if he succeded in pushing him- He could retreat and tend to his Injuries. Fulgar's own body wouldn't be so kind, heck, if Taizen could manage it with the blade above his back, he'd trip him!

She smirked 'I will use what you have taught me grandfather...!' She giggled with a warmness of joy feeling. She felt a tingling of exciment she closed her eyes taking a deep breath. Her eyes shot open hearing her abrupt movements. Kurai's eyes were different now she went into a type of fighting mood. Niima summoned up the snow into a large wall using it to lift her self upon the polls. 'Amazing truly amazing..!' kurai's excitment was rising. She watched her movements, soon she heard a whistling sound. Her memories ran threw her mind when they first met '...air bending...she controls air!!!' She behide a pole as it whisped by cutting into the snow as part of the wood. "I like this! now its my turn!" she laugh of joy. She noticed the damage that she caused when bending wind, 'gotta becarefull shes got power and speed...I must find what her bending's weakness is or else im done for...but I have to admitt this is exciting!' She grinned at her thoughts a soft chuckle passing her lips.
Kurai rushed at a poll near Niima's pushing back and foreward upon the two polls. She went a zigzag pattern using her strong legs and built up velocity to push herself up. She reached the top of the poll balancing on her hands. Kurai spun her body quickly by twisting with her hands. While she did this Kurai focused her energy to her feet. She felt the heat and smirked "KYAH!" Her felt expeld 5 crecent blades of fire in Niima's direction. Kurai quickly pushed off doing a 360 twist before landing on her left foot lifting her right leg up. Her arms were strong and made a stright line that was slightly tilted and both of her palms were flat. Thou she kept her head stright and stared at Niima "come on don't keep me waiting!" She made the palm that was in direction of Niima wiggle like a small wave as a gesture to call her foreward.

His blade cut through clothes and skin like a hot knife cuts through snow. It was just a scratch, but not much. Taizen moved up and down Fulgar's own blade, quickly. Taizen's blade sliced across Fulgar's chest, a flesh wound was all. Fulgar groaned. With a yell Fulgar stood his ground as Taizen pushed against him. He wouldnt move. He let his blade disappear from his hand. Fulgar grabbed Taizen's blade and heated it putting more pressure on it, willing it to snap in half.
They were in such close quarters Fulgar couldnt think of anything else to do, he moved his head with great speed toward Taizen's head. He shoved Taizen off of him, he had a gash in his chest, quickly taking his hand across the wound he heated it so that it scabbed over quickly and stopped bleeding. He smirked at Taizen, bet he didnt see that coming.
Fulgar rocketed himself backward with his feet, and began his technique, with arching of his arms and fluid motions of a waterbender, and hard stance of a firebender solid flame appear around his feet. He was lifted into the air by the quickly growing pillar of flame beneath his feet. The fire grew around his feet and quickly encased his waist.

Meh. She needed to work on her wind blades. Like that stranger, Kurai just brushed them aside. She seemed too focused on this not realizing Kuari was now on 'level' with her.
She blinked back to the present in time to see these cresent fires heading her way. Her hands lashed out and she swiped at the air, sending bursts of air towards each, trying to douse them as they headed her way. Most of them died off and just reached her as sparks but there was one that lashed into her thigh. She bit on her tongue quickly so not to make any sound and swatted the area. OOooooowwWwww. Kurai was fast and good..really good..
After three swipes she used the position to dip down and raise up quickly, bringing a vortex of wind to wall around Kuari. Once done she shifted back on her left heel and clapped her hands together to have the wind implode on itself and on Kuari. Not only did it bring cutting wind towards Kurai but it collasped so quickly that it caused a thunderous sound..like..well..thunder.

Kurai was smiling that when she opened her eyes the gust of winds knocked her back. "GAH!" She gripped to onto the top of two polls. She smirked "Im liking this!" She lifted her body weight up and swung her body upon the polls infront of her. She shook her head trying to get the ring out of her head from the blast. Kurai hopped on her foot before blasting off to different polls in a irregular pattern. Kurai also seemed very odd. It would look like her balance would wobble and she would get a dazed look in her eyes. Her body movements became odd aswell as unpredictible, almost drunk. She paused and stared up at the sky as her body wobbled as if sleepy or weak. Kurai blinked turn her head toward Niima then look down at her feet. For a second her body leaned forward as if to fall. She pushed off the rim of the poll with great speed pulling out her fans. Kurai spun like a spear and her fans were red horse hair. For a second as her back faced the ground and tilted her head back to face Niima and smirked. She used all her strength to pull her leg upward and downward upon Niima. Kurai missed Niima and struck the poll she was on, her back faced Niima as she gave niima a horse kick. "KYA!!!!" It hit her upper abdomanal area hopping to strike the air out of her lungs and catch her off gaurd.

Though Kurai's odd behavor did worry Niima a bit she remained focused and aware. If Kurai fell..well..she should know better. It was a fight after all. You cannot baby the person you are fighting. Even if it is a spar. Because like all things..nothing is as it seems.
Niima did well to let Kurai get close and she released a choking sound when Kurai's foot made contact. She gulped for air and instead of relying on bending Niima's hands lashed to grasp Kurai's foot before it could be pulled back from the kick, a return kick given but instead to a vital part of Kurai's body it was towards the back of the leg that was supporting the girl. Once the kick was made the foot would be released, contact or not she wasn't going to allow Kurai to take her down.
Her poor stomach. It had been stabbed, torned at and now mule kicked. Or well..horse kicked but still..felt like a mule to her!

"GAH!" Niima struck back without bending that struck her as a surprise. Kurai quickly snapped back into reality using the her fans to strike her wrist with quick powerfull strike. She used her triceps muscles to make more powerfull attack (wing tsun) like a snake bite. Before pushing off flipping onto a poll she landed with unease. She rotated her ankle to relax the muscle. 'nice strike, this is getting intresting' She smiled warming up her hand like her teacher had used on her. Kurai placed her hand on her leg letting the warmth melt the pain away. She streched her leg "ah..! much better!" She smiled making sure not to keep her eyes off Niima.

It struck her as odd that Kurai used fans. Usually airbenders did. Hm. But then again Kurai was obviously unique. Niima made a face when the fans struck down on her wrist and a hiss like sound parted her lips. In truth she was still kind of 'off' after all that she had been through. But good ol' Taizen had to toss her into battle not even a hour after her awakening.
She pulled back sharply before Kurai had the attempt to do her next move, missing but not by much. She had leaped off and using the wind under her was able to propel herself a few poles away. She landed silently, the air cushioning her drop as she sank into a stance, her left hand raising as she faced Kurai. She inhaled slowly, almost painfully seeming. Her torso still stung, reminding her of the blow as she took in the breath as deep as she could. Her other hand came sharply forward to her first palm, her breath quickly released in what would almost seem in a silent 'heeyaaa!'. Since air, unlike the rest of the elements, cannot be seen, one could say a ball of sound was sent straight towards Kurai's head. The thunder from within, simply modified by Niima's own breath. It wasn't enough to hurt Kurai past giving her a nice ring.

She grit her teeth as sound hit her, it felt like stupid bird was screeching in her ear. Her eye twitched trying not to hunch over and comfort her throbbing pain in her head. Kurai grinned before using that pain to feed to her strength. "KKYYAAHH!!!!!!" She gripped the fans tightly as blue flames surrounded her body. Taking a deep breath the flames vanished but there was a new feeling coming off kurai. An uneasy feeling that would make anyone not want to run into her in a dark alley. She tilted her head up her pupils dialated flashed a color of crystal blue before flashing back to green. Her eyes looked like tiger fighting for its prey. A smile creeped upon her lips. She hopped down runing in a cross hatching pattern touching the ground and certain parts in the marble. She looked up Niima before rushing up toward her opponent. only a few feet away she sent balls of fire in her direction. She launched her self at Niima before jumping toward the side with a smirk. The ground under them rumbled before expolsions went off, thick dirt arose surrounding a large part of their field making it impossible for anyone to see into their fight. Some large noises a shocks happened some pillars went down around them so one wrong jump and they could get seriously hurt. Now on a more diffcult but even battle field kurai had created. She listened carefully to hear niima's movement or voice.

Blue Flames. She shudders visibly. Unforgiving memories. Blue flames..definate no-no. She quickly went about pulling an air 'barrier' about her, trying to douse the incoming balls of fire. She flinched slightly as some penitrated the barrier and landed hits. Even singed some of her hair. Her titian shaded hair! Twitch. Then she realized that Kurai was more or less using the fireballs to 'play' with the playing field.
"Miss Kurai lets..not..try..to destory the temple's property!" She grunted as she swiped painfully at a few of her newer burns. Ow much?
Well since Kurai was on the groundward Niima decided to go as well. Dropping down she flipped forward and as she landed her heel pressed towards the ground in a ferocious outbreak of air, sending it spilling outward in a circle in hopes to topple over Kurai. Or atleast clear the 'smoke' on the playing field.
