pushing the limits: setsuka vs. elysia

setsuka walks into the snow in neiflheim and looks around, everything is white and beautiful with new fallen snow, setsuka stands and waits, hoping to face elysia to test the full extent of her new power

The space near Setsuka begins for ripple like wave in a pond until a crack appear. Elysia step out and turns toward Setsuka with an uncertain look upon her face, "What exactly do you want with me, Matsuko?"

setsuka adjusts her armor and slightly smiles "well elysia, i need to test my new found power against another worthy opponent...i was hoping you would be up for it" setsuka reaches behind her waist and draws dawn "if not that is fine too..."

Elysia whips her hand down her face and looks a Setuska, "So, your going to use me as a test subject for your powers, huh? Just because you think I'm worthy to be your opponent, but surely you haven't forgotten the I out of all my family like to fight the least." She take a deep breath and exhales lightly. "Sure I help you test your new skills, but I warn you I'm still in an experimental phase for my own. Also I might not put up much of a fight." Elyisa's soul waves begin to emit from her hands.

setsuka stands still with dawn in hand waiting for elysia to move, as setsuka's new style did not require much movement to be affective "now then dawn, ready yourself" dawn glows as if responding to setsuka and begins to rise in power

"Hmph, as always you never want to make a move, your 'Wait until the enemy strikes tactic get really old. No matter." Elysia raise her right arm and waves it to her right a crack appears and a rift opens. "Huh, I really don't care for this crap." She begins shooting wave of compressed soul blast into the rift.

Setsuka cracks a smile at her words "Oh how wrong you are...I made the first move as soon as I pulled dawn out, now then dawn do your job" the sword glows and elysia's rift begins to disappear then setsuka follows up "stocatto" multiple explosions of cell destructive energy begins exploding around elysia, setsuka stands and watches without ever moving " what will you do I wonder"

Elysia's eye twitches and as she stares in the cluster of explosions. "Really? Who need that many explosions?" She snaps her fingers and within seconds the world around them begins to shake. Soon mutiple cracks appear in there space and from each one a rift appears shoot out a barrage of soul waves all none with a direct target. "Let the play begin" Elysia jumps into the rift right next to her and exits another one behind Setsuka. She begins chantting as she places her hand on Setuska's head.

setsuka covers as the waves come in, and upon alice placing her hand on setsuka's head, setsuka just stands still and silent awaiting alice's next move, in the mean time she makes signs with one hand at her waist out of alice's line of vision

Elysia drops her hands and stares at Setsuka for 2 minutes before she finally spoke. "In case you forgot, I'm not Alice." Elysia places her hand on Setsuka's back and continues chanting. Son a golden light appears from her hand and she begins to pull something out.

"sorry momentary relapse, but all the same i can promise the result would end the same wether you were alice or not" setsuka says as she continues to wait for whatever move elysia was about to unleash, she was actually growing quite impatient

Elysia pull hee hand from Setsuka along with a small figurine that resembled young Alice. "Finally I have the final fragmentent shard of Alice's soul!" The small figure bagan to shake, then it looks westward at the sky.

setsuka merely stares at elysia, sighs and grabs dawn putting her back in the sheath "im assuming you're not going to fight me now that you have what you want?"

From the west Alice crash into the ground in front of Elysia and Setsuka with great force. A large crater was fromed, dust and smoke from the impact blanketed the entire field. Seconds later A golden shcok-wave was emmited for Alice, causing all the smoke and dust to clear. Alice stood up and stared at Elysia, then with a fury of the gods themselves she lashed out. "FUCK, ELYSIA YOU BITCH. DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'VE JUST DONE!!!?"

setsuka looks back "hmm" without showing any emotion she says "who is she?" (setsuka lost her memories of alice and some others when she fused with the priestest) she draws dawn, "something tells me i should know but another part of me says stay alert....dawn prepare yourself" a single wing made of pure energy activates itself upon hearing alices voice "what is this?" setsuka says as she looks at herself "why is my body reacting to this girl"

"You've got it all wrong, Matsuko. I needed to remove her soul fragment before we could battle. I didn't want to mess up her soul more then I already have." Elysia turns toward Alice and grined evily. "My loving sister, its so good to see you again. How have you been?" She readies herself to do some serious battling (As sirious as training can get). "Well?"

"no matter the circumstance i am battle ready, dawn elysia is priority one!, the girl is priority 2" setsuka says as the grand koi-kaze appears in her eyes

And sittin' off in the distance was one Naoki, hold the battle. He could feel and see their power from here and wasn't lookin' to get involved unless he absolutely needed to. He was sure that he had the power to stop all three of them by himself, but he'd been wrong before. He just wasn't lookin' forward to testing himself like this... not yet. So he watched.

Alyss takes a few minutes to observe her current surrounding before she spotted the child size figure of her sparkling as gold as the sun. Alyss disappears and reappears behind the figure and looks down at it. She then turn and looks Elysia directly in the face and raises her hand out toward Setsuka. "Sister, tell me. who that girl that you just ripped this fragment out of?" She awaited Elysia's Response.

"No one" She said vanishing into a rift she created moments before. "Well shall we continue?" Her voice echoed form the space around the battle field. "I now, would much like to continue our little training match. That is if you don't mind, Matsuko?" Her voice grew silent.

setsuka lifts dawn and then stares with a piercing glare "i'd love to finish....dawn be ready, prepare the zero act" dawn begins to glow and the imprint in setsuka' koi-kaze begins to rotate "now then let us spar"
