[[The shield was a square but....ok! sweatdrop ]]
Sakura gasp as his shield broke but acted quickly and picked up his staff behind his head so that Rivera could fly behind him and land far away. Hopefully Rivera would fly back and Sakura could finally finish this off. Sakura was getting tiredsome of this fight and wanted it over with. Truly Sakura thinks that Rivera and him are well compatible, with Rivera's smarts and Sakura's supportive abilities in battle they truly could be unstoppable, if this fight doesn't tire them out first.

((Ahh.. whoops.. sweatdrop I think shield, I usually base it off an axis... this means I'll have to change it to a planar support system of functions eek ... >.> *dies* ))
Rivera was ready for his move, mainly because she's been anticipating it for the last minute and a half... She knew she was far too light and easily thrown when contacted, making close combat her battle of speed rather than strength. She stuck the Kairyu into the ground on the way there and spun herself around the hilt, kicking towards Sakura at chest level. She knew that it wouldn't work. He'd just put up a shield anyway, and then the fight would be over. She knew she shouldn't've tried to fight right after she forged a Dominus weapon, but she was reckless like that. Rivera landed in a crouch and ended with her sword in a cross defense position.
"Sakura-kun... I think both of us would like to stop." Her whisper cut past his staff with a chilling wind.

Sakura watched as Rivera landed on the floor with her sword and was confused when Rivera stopped her attack. Sakura listened to her and responded with a, "Yes, I guess we both do." Sakura smiled at Rivera and said, "So am I good enough for you?" Sakura smirked and began healing his wounds and bruises.

Rivera gave a laugh that would've been prettier if it wasn't just an empty breath. Her whisper matched it, a weary tone, yet still with intellect. "Good enough? ... that's an understatement... I'd feel better if I could fight even a fraction as good as you can..." Rivera stood up shakily, her legs still unbalance. Her eyes focused and unfocused, swirling in multiple colors. She bit her lip and let the pain bring back her concentration. The wounds on her body were just starting to sting. Cursing mildly, Rivera rubbed the side of her head. She really shouldn't've worked so hard on the Dominus before a fight, or fought right after completing a dominus. It was her own fault that she had to stop.

Sakura watched as Rivera was stumbing over. Seems that Rivera took more of a beating that Sakura thought. Sakura walked over to Rivera and helped her stand straight. "Hold as still as possible," Sakura asked Rivera. Sakura began healing Rivera's whole body. It was a lot of energy that Sakura had to waste but, he couldn't just leave Rivera in this state, knowing that he was the one that got her this hurt. Sakura now wished that he went easier on Rivera. Shes a good fighter....She'll get better then me one day, if not already... Sakura thought to himself as he completed his healing on Rivera and asked, "Better?"

Rivera was grateful for the healing spell at first, but then, all the energy he spen went rushing back. She couldn't accept his healing at all, it wasn't compatible with her system. She blinked, wondering why it rebounded, then remembered the feathers... right... he was an anti-chaotic entity. He wouldn't be able to heal her at all. Even if he were neutral, he wouldn't be able to. Unless if the healer was 75% chaos, she wouldn't be able to recieve the spell.
She sheathed Kairyu on her back and drew her priestess' staff in its rod form from her belt. Squeezing it, she felt it grow longer into its full staff form--a long silver rod with an ornate crescent moon standard and a blue orb on a sterling water-carving base. She leant on that to steady her own weight. "I'll be okay... you're not chaotic enough to be compatible with my soul composition..." She smiled at him. It was rare for her to smile at anything that way, in something that was more than a mere ghost of the real thing.
"I knew before we started that you would be better than me. I had the preasera, the foresight... so I knew what moves you might pull... in a way, I had an unfair advantage." She sighed. "I need to brush up on my shield breaking spells... they're rusty..."

Sakura felt all the energy return back into him and he became a bit dizzy. Returning back into forcus, Sakura responded with, "You sure? I have some potions...?" But Sakura knew already she was going to refuse and stopped himself there. "You need help to the Hospital?" Sakura offered. Hopefully she wouldn't refuse and he can atleast help her somehow.

Rivera shook her head. "I've gotten worse than this and lived." She began to walk away, still bleeding, but firm in her whispering words. "I can't go to that... place... the thing you call a hospital..." She shook her head and continued to walk at her pace. "The distortion wave... it's too strong there... all it'll do is knock me out... I can go somewhere else to get fixed up..." Rivera knew where she would be headed. She could go to Crystal Moon Lake. The water there was pure, and she could heal herself there with chaos magic.
"If you have to follow me, and that is if you really must, do me a favor and please walk five paces behind me." She smiled at what she was asking him. "If a silver hair young man named Kai sees you any closer or any further headed in the same direction, he'll try to rip out your throat and feed you to the birds..." Rivera stopped to steady herself again, breathing deeply.
"That is why I suggest you don't follow me."

Sakura blinked at what Rivera offered and smilied nervously. "I guess I won't follow you then. You sure your capable to walk in this state?" Sakura asked once more to make sure. He didn't want to be held responsible if anything terrible happened to Rivera. Sakura became rather fond of her. He found her interesting and fun. Even though all they did was try and beat the life out of each other.

"Even if I can't, the wind will help me along." Rivera walked slowly and steadily with her staff towards the exit. "We'll meet sometime in the future, mark that. And we won't be fighting the next time." She blinked. Her eyes had turned silver for a moment in foresight. "You were great." With a turn and a slow bow, Rivera straightened up and walked away again, fluid like water but rigid as ice. She had to get her wounds taken care of before she loses any more blood. She couldn't afford passing out again.

Sakura was a bit confused by the analogies that Rivera presented him. All he did was bow when she did and watched her walk away, thinking, Theres something more to her.... Sakura shurged it off and began to fly. He decided to head to town since he wasn't sleepy and he didn't have a dorm yet. Sakura found a nightclub with a dragon over the entrance.
[[Dragon Nightclub...]]

Once at the Arena Taqune found a clean room for Serika and him to train in. The room was large enough for him to run in without being hindered. The walls were slightly rounded so the room was more oval than square."I think this will work nicely Serika." Taqune let go of her hand and went to the middle of the room so whats first want to show me your moves or should I be the first?"

She smiled, and walked around a bit before settling in a spot. "I'll go first, that way, perhaps you can help me." Touching her bell, her sword came out in a flash of red light. Closing her eyes and opening her mind, she began slow trance-like movements with her sword in the air. She knew that on the outside, nothing about the way she moved looked threatening, but on the inside, there was a fusion taking place between her soul and the sword. After a few moments of concentration the sword and Serika had a red aura around them both. Continuing her movements, her sash began to glow a dark blue. It was working. With her sword pointing straight in the air, she turned slowly as red rain drops came out of it to produce a red sphere around her. To anyone witnessing this, it would seem magical, right before her sword would emit a blinding light produced to distract her enemy. It was easy to see that she was one with her weapon. There was no doubt that she had been practicing for years. And not lunging at Taqune, she went towards an invisible enemy with surprising speed. When the light around her dispersed, she looked at Taqune, taking in deep breaths. "I've only just mastered not passing out from that." She said.

Taqune didn't know much about weapons but he would give what advice he could.Taqune was amazed at her control with that large of a sword."Very good, Serika, just keep at it." Taqune walked around to her left side,"Why don't you show me your sound ability. I don't know swords but sound is my speciality. Or maybe i can show you some of my abilities and you can take a rest that moved looked as if it took a lot out of you."
