Cash watched his cousin's every motion not wanting to be caught off guard by anything his cousin could dish out at him. Of course he saw the motion of his cousin's right boot and as the rock was sent rocketing at him his left hand reached up and grabbed it. He dropped the stone on the ground and began to slowly make his way towards cousin, now with both of his arms at his side. Once he was about five feet away, he threw his body into the air about fifteen feet. He was then directly above his opponent and he would come crashing down on top of him with his right boot. As he was falling an unseen hole developed in the sole of his right foot and as he came down another black kunai would shoot unseen from his foot and exit out his boot and hopefully hit his cousin smack in the head.

As his cousin began to dash in, Clash quickly swept his left boot in front of him, angling the entire left side of his body toward his cousin...and, more specifically, the dual blades of the Slaughtersword sheathed at his back. His finger tensed on the trigger of the gunblade, squeezing....
And then his cousin took off into the air after a few steps. He watched the guy up there, waiting for him to drop and quickly come in range, and then he ducked down and swung the chain sheathe upon his back upward. Both sword points, and more importantly both barrels, were leveled with his cousin. The kunai smacked off of his own weapon and just before impact-
BOOM.
A shotgun shell exploded forth from the right barrel, scattering buckshot into his cousin's midst, the force enough to blast him away.

Just as the kunai exited his boot Cash knew of the gun that was part of his cousin's sword as Clash had wielded one before. The instant the blade was pointed up at him, a dark shell encased both of his arms as he brought them together, the casing expanded a little farther outwards as it acted as a shield and just as the trigger was pulled he reeled in both of his legs and pulled his head down behind the shield. The bottom of his legs were exposed still and his ankles and middle of his legs got shot, but other than that the rest of his body was behind the casing as he had curled up into a ball behind it. He still would come crashing down upon his cousin only now the shield of his arms would smack into him.

"!"
He was hit, the brunt of the dark shell that had become his cousin slamming into him. His body was primarily tilted backward to the right to begin with, so he attempted to go with the slam, rolling away in that direction as the earth in the spot he had priorly been occupying tented under the force of the incoming dark ball.
He skidded backwards a bit upon coming out of the roll, his head rocked slightly, left shoulder aching where he had been hit the most. He held back a snarl, surveying his form with some quick downward glances. Pieces of shot had ricocheted, one imbedding itself in his left pectoral muscle not far below the collarbone, two more in the meat of his right shoulder. His cloak had been torn by others, some had deflected off of his metal arm and the large sheathe of chains upon his back, and a small canal had been carved in his left cheek from another stray piece of shot. His own attack had literally backfired on him.
He stood up...in the same stance he had been in before, right hand gripping the hilt of the weapon at his back, left at his side, said side completely angled in Cash's direction. He waited for the shell to unfurl.

There was a small crater left at the spot of impact, after all Cash did weigh six thousand pounds. His knees and below ached as they were the only spot exposed to the shot, the flesh was torn, ripped, and very raw. The pain felt good as he hasn't felt pain like this in a while. Instead of coming out of this casing he had something else planned. He remained in the hole motionless until his whole body started to flinch and his skin started to wiggle. A casing like the one on his arms shot up all over his body as blood began to soak into the soil beneath him. His whole body was now encased and he was in the shape of a ball. He rolled at a high speed, taking flight as he ramped from the small crater heading in his cousin's direction. He only got about seven feet up but that was good. A thick layer of energy had formed around his armor and it solidified, encasing his shell with ice. As he fell icicles would be flinging off of the shell, shooting towards Clash. He would land only about five feet away from his cousin but would continue his roll hoping to run him over.

His right forearm went up, displaying the glinting bracer around his tape-wrapped wrist. It seemed he was about to be impaled by these countless icy shards...what could he possibly do?
Just as the icicles reached him, a wave reverberated in a diameter of five feet around his arm. Rotating a full three hundred sixty degrees, it glimmered with a soft blue hue. Aeonic flux drives controlled this shield, and it stopped the barrage of ice, to an extent. Due to the angle of his body, he made as small a target as possible in this position and went further unscathed.
Krrrrrrrch!
The wrecking ball that had become of his own cousin slammed into him as he dug the soles of his boots into the ground, immediately causing him to be pushed back and back. His tao shield wouldn't last long against this, nor would his faltering balance against this three-ton monster barreling against him, and so it was not long after the impact that he half-dove, half-rolled out of the way to the left.
He looked at the large swath, the frozen trail, his cousin had made in the earth, wiping grime from his cheek.
"Fuuuck."

After his cousin dove out of the way he continued going for a while before turning around. A small slit opened up in the front of this ball and it shot ice from it paving him a path. He continued to roll in his cousin's direction until he was about ten feet away. The front of the ball then opened up quickly, the opening grew until the rest of his body was out of the shell, His body was still curled up in a ball and because when he exited the ball he was moving he continued to move and he slid across the ground his arms, legs, and back getting all scrapped up as he skidded across the ground. But as the ball open the front of it whipped a seemingly harmless liquid of some sort at his opponent, enough to cover his whole body.

A loud sizzling sound was heard as the liquid spattered against the tao shield, in effect once more in preparation for another attack. There was a loud snapping sound and the rattling of chains as his cloak billowed out and sword was unsheathed, and as Cash tumbled in his direction upon the ground, he moved quickly in order to intercept the roll...driving both blades down into his opponent's upper body, in the chest area, back area, or whatever was facing him at the time of the strike. The disoriented Cash was likely to not even expect it.

Cash's senses weren't that of a normal person's. He didn't quite know what his cousin was doing but he knew he was coming at him fast. He also knew that his cousin had probably had his sword ready to strike because he could hear the chains rattling. He could simply sense his cousin's presence as he got closer. Cash's energy surrounded his entire body cooling him down as if he were soaked in water and as his cousin would come down upon him Cash's entire body would be frozen in a hard thick layer of ice hopefully strong enough to stop the oncoming blades.

Krkkk-!
The sound of impact and cracking ice was heard as the blades struck against Cash's ice barrier. This was becoming quickly annoying, but it was not like he was trying to kill his cousin...more like fend him off. However, the more this situation went on, and the more Cash threw himself at Clash, he became increasingly positive that he was going to have to use it.
But not yet.... Not if he could help it.
His left hand came up and a few quick clicks were made on the control panel of his bracer. Just by raising the forearm it rested on, it could be automatically activated to defend against certain attacks, switching settings between magick defense and high-velocity projectile and physical defenses when needed. After all, it had a mind like that. The usual light blue color of the tao shield shimmered with a purple hue now, and it echoed across the immediate area around Clash like a wall, eating up abnormal influences upon the material plane...including Cash's energy, basically creating an anti-magick sphere. The reaction would cause his cousin's ice barrier to implode within itself several times until it was gone, negating any following effects for the few seconds afterwards, unless he simply didn't choose to let the shield down. This moment would decide that. As it happened, the dual blades of Clash's sword were raised several inches, poised to strike, and then he drove it down home.

The instant blade was stopped he flipped his body so his chest would be facing up at his cousin and at the very instant the ice melted and Clash's blade came down. He grabbed each blade in one hand, just as the tips poked into his chest barely breaking the skin. He then pushed up hard and to his left so that if his cousin continued pushing down his sword would go into the ground beside him. He then kicked his right foot up forcefully intending for it to smash into his cousin's right knee and break it. Whether that hit or not he would then roll off to his right away from his cousin and onto his feet.

He watched as the teeth of the blades shredded the flesh of his cousin's hands, and then felt the return force of his cousin attempting to push them away, saw the shifting of the right leg for that inevitable kick....
...No.
His leading left boot snapped forward, misdirecting his cousin's right foot as Cash let the kick loose. Basically, his cousin's right foot was kicked away as it came, providing an opening...that being Cash's groin, as Clash drove the heel of his boot down into the area with force enough that Cash was not likely to have kids again (rumor had it that he got around with the good-looking dwellers of the other planes he frequented).
His right boot came forward then only moments after the left made its motions, and at the same time he drew the Slaughtersword upward in time with the motions of Cash pushing it away, his cousin only helping him there. With both of Cash's hands occupied in gripping the sword, it was doubtful he would be able to react to Clash's right boot as he brought that one down on his cousin's chest, effectively pinning him to the ground now.
With the tao magick shield still in effect, preventing any barrier or general magick use, he hovered over his cousin's left side in standing on him...and drove the blades down again, into his gut.

His hands shredded, nuts smashed, chest stomped, and his cousin's blades now driven through his gut. Blood splurted through his mouth as one Cash Kiddick was pinned to the ground by the blades of his own cousin. This fight was still not over. He began to speak as blood was spit from his mouth.
"Cousin, how could you do this to me?"
Cash spit blood up at his cousin's face. He reached his right hand up with his palm open.
"Clash speak to me one last time so I can hear your voice before I move on from this world."
He began to cough as blood spurted from his mouth. He wiped the blood that was on his hands off onto his face. He then reached his right hand up again as if he wanted his cousin to grab it.

As blood began to spatter from Cash's mouth, he frowned and raised his metal arm up before his face in disgust, leaving the sword embedded in the kid's gut with his right hand still gripping the hilt. The blood that Cash spat up at his cousin simply hit the metal arm in the process. He wasn't stupid enough to risk getting that s**t all over his face, and luckily, his body was covered by his cloak and other garments.
He extended his metal hand then, like he was going to shake....
""
His right boot was slid back enough toward Cash's left breast to prevent it from getting in the way, and his left hand snapped downward as he snagged the handle on his left arm with the fingers of his right hand. The cannonball burst out in a shower of smoke and fire.

A massive hole was blown into his chest as blood was shot all of the place. His hand fell to his side and his eyes rolled back into his head. He was put out of commission but one last word escaped his lips before he went unconscious.
"b*****d."
