Welcome to Gaia! ::

Taizen gasped as something stirred within the ice. Hadn't he deprived him of mmovement and oxygen? "Ah! Don't be stupid he's a firebender." Taizen thought to himself, if there was one type of bender to stand up after taking a beating, it was firebenders. After all, it wasn't like he was trying to Kill Fulgar, he was gonna break him out aftert a few minutes.

Taizen held his hand out to the air in front of him. Taking a deep breath, and releasing a cold mist. The mists seemed to be drawn to his hand, and formed a sphere of Ice. "hahhh!" Taizen panted, kneeling and rubbing the sphere over his aching right arm. Much like one would do to apply sunscreen to a sunburn. And just like cream, the Sphere of ice melted onto his skin. He closed his eyes, "Heal... Heal..." Again, he felt a numbing sensation, washing over the flame of pain like waves of life.

"hah..." The pain had stopped. His arm would not move. "My Healing... Has no stamina...!" Now he realized that if it werent for his ability to heal, this match would have ended a while ago, and even now, he knew that overall, he was losing out. Fulgar had exploded from his nest of ice, billowing fire, much like he had when he had attempted to fight Kazuki. Was this also the help of Cain? Or was Cain still silent? "Taizen! Niima! This is not a match to kill!" Taikai scolded, apparently, to him, the two were the least banged up. Taizen turned to see Niima's fight, despite being in the middle of a fight with Fulgar, a second's look wouldn't hurt. And when he saw Niima attempting to get away, cuts and bruises abound. He wasn't sure if he was angry with her for not giving up earlier, or proud, that she could handle herself. Meanwhile Fulgar...

Taizen was brought out of his revelry to the smell of fire, shortly followed by a feeling of extreme pain. Taizen gasped as he felt a fireball connect with his side, shooting him across the field. Hitting the snow and rolling another several yards. Taizen cursed uynder his breath as he looked at his charred robe, and the bruises gained by the fall. He looked up to Fulgar, he had a different look in his eyes. Cain. "that's too much power...! If I go close, He'll destroy me! i'll have to battle from afar, and use my speed to my advantage..." He made to stand up, and winced, His foot... under closer inspection he found it twisted. "..." He looked back to Fulgar, there was a good distance he'd have to walk/run to get to him. Maybe... He could avoid a few long-range firebending techniques. As it did seem that the farther away the firebender, the weaker said fire got.

He grasped a hand full of snow, and held it up to should heright, promptly flicking his wrist, sending the snowball flying straight towards fulgar. A mcoking blow that could hardly hurt a babe.

"don't be modest...!" Kurai could only open one eye as the other was covered with blood. She didn't want to risk loosing because she had to wipe some blood away and weaken her stance. A cold shiver went up her spine as she stood up stright. "pretty chilly up here huh Niima.." She smiled rubbing her arms. At the same time heat was pulsing threw her hands speeding up the healing process of the cuts and wounds. Kurai used her long sleeve to wipe the blood from her eye. That shiver knocked her out of her fighting stance so she decided what the heck. Placing her open palm above the shallow cut on her forehead letting the warm heat quickly close the wound from bleeding all over. She stood looking at Niima with both wide eyes and to her surprise a smile covered Niima's lips.Niima smiled. The entire time she had not smiled and this was no normal smile but something intertwined with it...A trap..a secret attack..secret weapon..? Kurai's brain was jumping off the walls of her inner skull trying to figure it out. But what could she do but stand there and take whatever was coming her way.

Kurai was in shock at how her fire diminished, "w-what the heck..!?" Before she knew it kurai went flying into the air and crashed deep into the dirt below.Kurai layed in her own crator eyes wide until she coughed up some blood.The blood dripped lightly from the corner of her mouth.As her breathing became rapid and her body trembled her fingers gripped the ground her pupils dialated. Kurai's mind began to think in another manner, a milliatary manner. Her brain concluded since Niima bends air and the fire diminished when getting in close proximity of her range she must be absorbing the fire. She sat up opening her palm examening the dirt rubbing inbetween her two fingers. She grabbed two large clumps of dirt before heading up. She faced Niima with those eyes that seem they could pierce through any armor. Her hands turned a quick red before the rocks seem to tremble in her hands. She ran stright towards Niima and threw both rocks at her. But they both went in oppisite one to the left of Niima and the other to the right. The rocks reached niima becoming paralle to one other. A loud blast and shock wave came from both. Kurai knew fire wouldn't work so she used niima's power against her. Since they exploded at the same time it created an effect such as when two fingers will squeeze a grape the inside will come squirting upwards. Kurai jumped hoping that threw the dust she'd see niima, but in that jump to hang time she rubbed both of her hand furiously with a piece cloth material inbetween.

((>.> I don't know them... But After the contestthingy is done, i'm gonna put the quote into google, and find out razz ))

Taizen limped backwards, his leg hurting him, Making swiping motions as he went, waves of snow rising to envelope Fulgar, obviously, Taizenknew how much flames were shooting out ofFulgar's body, and that the snow would mean nbothing, he was just trying to impede him for now, A look of slight fear crossing his face, "Cain..? He's been taken ove by Cain...?"

((Lets drag this out to 15, and then the thirty minutes will be up razz ))

(Crap, just reread your post, sorry I wasnt paying attention I over looked your waves of ice!

edit: fixed.)

He was pushed back with the force of the snow, ice, and water not only that but the ice had an effect Taizen hadnt anticipated, Cain was now trapped in the snow. Only from his shoulders up was visible, his eyes grew stern as he struggled in vain to free himself from the ice. When he couldnt free himself he began to laugh once more, a laugh that could throw a chill down even a waterbender's spine.

Without his arms and legs Cain couldnt do much, at his position he couldnt even breath fire and have it do anything. Each time he struggled it seemed that the ice only grew tighter around him. (Think Sokka in "Bitter Work")

Yes! A triumphant thought rang through the cavernous mind, now that Cain was trapped Fulgar could try to put him back into his prison. Score 1 good guys! Even in the position they were all in Fulgar couldnt help but grin. Cain was insane, and Taizen had just subdued him. He was amazed the power that Cain possessed, even using Fulgar's body he was still more powerful that Fulgar could ever be.

He sat in a meditative position and closed his eyes concentrating on escape. The Dark of the mind swirled and spiraled in fantastic shapes.

"Oh, Taizen." Cain addressed the waterbender for the first time, his voice having the familiar metallic ring to it (think Ansem from KH1) he hoped to have surprised on his side by knowing their names. "Very good, your master has taught you well, but what to do with me now? You kill me so dies your friend, it wouldnt matter to me, at least I would finally be gone from the hell that Fulgar has put me through." Though that was true, Cain didnt want to die, he still needed to infect the world with his evil, with his corrupt power. "I have traveled the mazes of the mind, Taizen, the knowledge I gained is vast. Enough to see the feelings you so blatantly try to hide for the airbender." Cain continued trying to pick at the waterbender's nerves, his mouth in a constant smile, and his steel blue eyes never even blinking off of Taizen. "She is very pretty, Taizen." Ha! Oh, yes, pretty she was Cain didnt know that in actuality, the urges of men mean little to him. "When I'm finished with Kurai, maybe I'll go for her. She is after all only worth the second part of my meal. I'll make you watch, as I ravage her and peel the flesh from her bones." It was a desperate move but perhaps putting her into a sexual light would provoke Taizen just enough, if that didnt work he was sure the taunts and threats to her pretty little flesh would make him snap.
