(YB) Rathan Vs. Sanctus Togashi II! (Phoenix Judging Again!)

Rathan moves with the speed and grace of a fox as he darts from one boulder to the next that he has created from his destruction last round.....

He looks tired but has much more to give in this match as he focuses in on his opponent and what to do next... and then it hits him......

Rathan moves with increasing speed as he makes his final jump toward Scantus he launches himself in the air and strait on target with his former student....

The air itself ripples around him as he lines up and impaleing flying sidekick right at Scantus'm chest.... all the while humming an anchanting tune that is ment to distract his opponent if he can avoide the blinding fast kick....

"I move with the speed of the fox..... SunEye.... guide my way!"


The fox tranquilly assails the labyrinth so fast that it vigorously impales the venom; sings near the roar of the lash!

The hammer leaps on top of the forest; parts the kick of the wind!

"Master Rathan, I'm ready to submit. I'm tired of this fight, and my diligence tells me that there may be better combat out there, however, I wish for my Dojo to remain open. So, I'll continue, for my dojo and my ancestors."

With that, the clouds above part as his ancestors answer the call and unveil the legendary warhammer family heirloom, to be used against the warrior Rathan a single grandeous time.

Sanctus rips the warhammer Dojina out of the sky, and sheathes his Katana completely in a single fluid motion. "This is the hammer that rocks the earth, this is the Dragon Dojina's sacred hammer. This is the hammer that was used against the Hellfire Wyrms... I may not be a master of the Hammer, but I am proficient in this holy weapons use!"

Using the heavy weight of the Bronze headed hammer, Sanctus leaps into the sky with the incredibly supernatural strength of his leg muscles. He turns in the air, with hammer drawn, and combines three forces into a devastating forest-shaking attack: The Weight of the Hammer pulled by the planet, the Strength of a Samurai emboldened by his willpower, and the Ki honing energies of Dojina the Hammer of Sanctus Ancestors.

Seeking to avoid destroying his opponent, Sanctus seeks only to shake the forest from it's roots, and let the hammer sink into the earth so that it can be called again at a more helpful time. The quake alone should be enough to unstabilize his opponent for an attack, and the mega-ton force of the hammer should never be used against a mans body - because it's sheer force is far too much to be stopped by muscle and bone.

The quake itself, when used properly, stops not just the earth, but the wind itself, parting the pulses of the ebb and tide of natures divine wind with it's core power as nothing would ever wish to encounter Dojina.

Following up his attack, Sanctus resoundingly holds himself up against the quaking earth, unsheathes his katana, and strikes out against his masterfully knowledged opponent. He strikes out to prove his strength to his new master, and that his ancestors are only guardians, not the warrior who has called upon them this day.
 


"It seems that Sanctus' ancestors are strong on his side and that he has proved his strength even against his former master."

Round 7: 1 flag for Sanctus

"5 flags for all!"
 

"I am tired too my honored friend and this is why I wish to end this match here and now with one last move...."

Rathan inches slowly towards Sanctus... in his well known tiger style... he watches every move of his opponent like a tiger stalks his prey in the jungle...

Rathan waits for Sanctus to move before he rips into him with a counter attack claw strike strong enough to tear him apart....

Rathan is sure to be weary of Sanctus' feet.... they are very powerfull and could be a problem but Rathan has the wits to dodge them with ease if he focuses....

Rathan strike after strike tries to wear his opponent into submission.... with each strike perfectly placed he sees it may not take as long as he thiught.....


The tiger vanquishes the vineyard; dodges the offensive of the body!

The flawless trident flips through the forest; silences the stab of the grave!

"Then let us decide!"

Sanctus holds his Katana with both hands in the high fighting style, and then channels his chi into the blade. He focuses, and hones in on his opponent. "Prepare yourself, I will not be stopped now till I am dropped, at which point I will need great medical care."

And his Draconic Rage begins, he harries his blade like the Tsubo Haihachi of legend. He holds the blade out, and high, and turns in circles as he flawlessly holds his Katana out in front of him. It's heavy mass is used as a counter-balance with Sanctus weight, using the entire force of the mass of his body as the fuel of the blades whirling cut. Beyond the perception of a common warrior, three seperate prongs are visible during the attack, as the blade shifts up, middle, and down rapidly, creating three separate whirling strikes.

Spinning through the forest, cutting like a whirlwind of three prongs of a trident, Sanctus flips about, spinning ever so rapidly in his crazed frenzy of attacks. His technique being extremely destructive, makes it incredibly hard for any opponent to strike against him with any normal weapon. This silences his opponents, those who do not fall under the grave victimization of Sanctus whirling technique.
 


Rathan can't belive his eyes as Sanctus rages right through his tiger style......

"I summon the delicate winds of the north to freeze my opponent in his tracks...."

Rathan then disappers and can be heard muttering off acient words of power as a blizzard of emmense power roars in.....

The high winds blow whats left of the lanscape to and fro.... as the ice bares down on Sanctus.....

Ice that could almost rend flesh itself falls all around Sanctus.... but no sight of Rathan can be seen..... then the blizzard stops as quicklyas it started..... and still no Rathan.... untill....

From behind Sanctus, Rathan appers..... having become one with the blizzard he is encased in a suit of armor made of thick ice.....

"I have become one with the storm my opponent..... the icy bonds of this armour will protect me from whatever you can dish out.... now.... STRIKE ME..... if you can!!!"


The blizzard delicately becomes one with the glade; scatters the storm of the sky!

The blizzard dances over the shrine; conceals the aggression of the grass! *yen*
-The Irony that we both draw Blizzard...

The spiraling, slashing, spinning Sanctus Togashi dances all over this sacred place, making battle with the elements presiding around him. He shreds that which surrounds him with his rapid movements, concealing his raging aggressions by battering the world around him. He destroys the very nature around him, carefully using his mind to control his actions with what willpower he has.

In the blizzard of Rathan's fury, Sanctus Togashi dances the deadly dance of a whirlwinding rage, destroying everything in his path, with only his wisdom managing to keep control. He spirals, cuts, and torments anything in his path in his hopes of overcoming his opponent before his bloodlust sets in. His control only able to be returned fully when either he, or his opponent is fully defeated.

The roar of his anger rises every second, steadily eating away at the land and surroundings, and himself, as the Draconic rage continues to overpower his very mindset, turning an honored samurai into a harried and raging berserker.
 

Shivering from the intense cold which frosts his breath into a plume of smoky air, Patch feels the weight of his body increase as he finds it suddenly coated in a thin layer of ice.

Looking out at the battlefield which has been devastated by so many powerful attacks, even the battle hardened judge is slightly awed at the sheer level of destruction surrounding him and the two fighters.

Speaking of the fighters, Patch sees them suddenly through the clearing mist. Both men seem to be frozen in place for a split second, and then Patch notices the heaving chest of one fighter as the other reaches up toward his chest with one hand. A hand which comes away stained with the blood that now flows out from between the cracked ice armor of Rathan. Shaking from the cold, or maybe the loss of blood, Rathan sinks to one knee and bows his head in acknowledgment of defeat. Still breathing heavily, Sanctus Togashi's slightly glazed eyes finally clear as his rage leaves him able to see his victory at last.

Round 9: 1 flag, 1 Yen, and victory to Sanctus Togashi!

"Rathan, you fought with power and guts and deserve no shame in this defeat. You fall to Green Belt 3 with a record of 8 wins and 4 losses. Keep fighting, and you will make up for this loss without problem.

"Sanctus Togashi, you displayed unquestionable skill and valor in this battle and the former dishonor you felt can now be wiped completely away. You rise to the rank of Green Belt 0 with a record of 6 wins and 8 losses. You also gained a Yen from the judge for that mighty fine display of fighting prowess at the end there. Congratulations, you earned it."
