The Fateful Encounter (Rajal Only)

[Mahado Darkstar]

Mahado was busy contemplating on what Kurts had told him on his journey back to his home. Having to figure out what he should do, he probably figured he had to muster the courage to go back to his hometown....the one that he had abandoned and left behind to seek for help. Kurts knew that he would have to do it....especually with the looming threat of Rajal in the shadows.

"There's no way around it. I gotta talk to my old man again....I just hope he's going to listen to reason....I doubt it though." Mahado says to himself while looking at the ground. He had left the mage villege without any word or any letter telling them where he had gone. He figured if he did, they would find him right away and put him back to the studies....which he didnt want. Now going back home to warn them of Rajal, he couldnt help but wonder if they would force him to study harder to become a 'Dark Magician' to protect them from the blood thirsty warrior.

"I dont see any other way...if I have to work hard again, then ill have to agree to their terms...."

[Rajal]

"Oh....who do we have here....the mage again..."

A eerie voice echos through the grasslands, as the winds die down for the voice to be heard. It wasnt long before there was a figure walking out from a single tree that was ahead down the road....revealing itself to be the Buster Blader, Rajal.

"Well...this is my lucky day. I was wondering around here, and here I find someone who escaped my sword the last time." Rajal grinned, as his arms were crossed his chest. His armor was still on, save the helm, as he wanted to look at the mage in the eyes, ensuring that he would be intimidated by the warrior.

"You know...I've been bored for a while since the last time I fought you and that....Red-Eyes friend of yours. Now I got a good chance of taking you down here....." The warrior says as he reached back for his massive heavy sword, Wyrmkiller.

[Mahado Darkstar]

Mahado froze instantly when he heard the voice....that dreadful, killer voice that he remembered all too well.

It didnt take him long to see that it was who he thought...Rajal, the rouge Buster Blader that nearly killed him a few months ago. He was too scared to move as his hand was looming over the staff he carried, but wasnt able to grip it due to the fear he was feeling from the looming warrior now coming up to him.

<D-Damn...Of all the times...why now!?> Mahado says as he was sweating bullets. It wasnt till he saw Rajal reach up to his sword, he finally musterd up the courage to fight now. He quickly whips his staff out and then points it to the warrior. "Im not going to let you kill me here! Dark Bullets!" He sends a volly of small magic blasts at Rajal.

[Rajal]

Rajal smirked, whipping out his massive sword as it easily blocked the bullets. Being as big as it was, it could easily be considered as a shield as well, as he whipped it to the side and on his sholder. "Pathetic...You call that magic. I left you alone for a few months, and this was all you can come up with?" The warrior says as he was a bit disappointed, and started to grow tired of this mage.

"If you cant even show a decent attack...your good as dead where you stand, boy." With that said the Buster Blader charges with such speed that he whips his body around, bringing the sword around to do a slicer spin attack on the mage.

[Mahado Darkstar]

Mahado knew his attack wasnt going to be of much help, but he was ready for when Rajal would make his next move. Upon seeing his sword, he leaned his body back, bending his back in an arch a bit, as the sword came close to him. As soon as the sword passed by, he quickly used his arm, bearing his staff to fire a close range shot.

"Dark Bullet!" He fired off another few shots, but this time his shots were up close and personal, as they hit Rajal up against his side, and a few on his face.

[Rajal]

Rajal's blade whipped right by Mahado's head, just inches from cutting off head, but was just about to swing his blade around for a horizantal slice....up until he saw that he was preparing for a counterattack. He couldnt do anything, since the momentum of the blad held him still for the right moment for the bullets to impact against his armor, causing him to slightly pust away...only one making a hit to his face.

"GRAH! You little....You know I dont like to get hit in the face....ESPECUALLY AFTER HAVING IT CUT!" Rajal refered to the time when he tried to attack on the Blue-Eyes villege, and the one calling herself Sapphire had managed to leave him with three gashes across his face. Just even remembering that failed attempt made the warrior enraged, as he quickly swung his sword down to bear down on the magician, preparing to cut him in two.

[Mahado Darkstar]

Knew that this type of tatic would bring out Rajal's anger, as he saw the incoming blade. He quickly dodged to the right, rolling on the ground before useing his quickly scribbling a magic circle on the ground.

"Im not as weak as you think. Spellbinding Circle!"

The circle quickly glowed, as it levitated and entrapped Rajal in its bidings, as Mahado was at ease for the moment. "I've been trainning vigorouslly for something like this....when you would ever show up. I learned alot of new spells and attacks that you dont know about...Like this Spellbinding Circle. You wont be able to move for a while, but I can get the proper authorites to take you in." Mahado says in a proud tone, figuring that he did something that no one was able to do...capture the rouge Buster Blader.

[Rajal]

The sword missed the magician, as it splits the ground in two. He was about to pull his sword out, until he could see that the mage quickly entraps him in the Spellbinding Circle, making him immoble....or to what Mahado though.

"Rrrrrgh....So you think this low level of a spell can hold me?" The warrior growled, as he started to use his physical poweress to start cracking the circle. It didnt take him long, but the spell shatters, as he looks at the mage, bloodlust already starting to take over. "You know, you really are driving me up the wall this time....mage. I shouldve killed you and that Red-Eyes when I had that chance...but this time you will die. And there's no one around who can save you."

With a devilish looking smirk on his face, the Buster Blader swings his sword to his side to slice up the mage once more.

[Mahado Darkstar]

As he watched, his circle crumbled into peices, as the warrior broke free. <How the heck did he do that!? And with his strength?!> The mage thought as he saw the uncoming attack once more, and dodges. He knew he wasnt going to last long at this rate, as he only had a few spells in his arsnal at the moment.

All he could do was dodge the uncoming attacks from the enraged Buster Blader, as he was already getting tired from the continuous dodges. "Nugh! I....wont die here! No way!" He said to himself as he scrammbled up to his feet as he had only one other way to escape...but it would require him to use as much of his magic as he could.

After having dodge another one of Rajal's uncoming attacks, he consentrates as much of his mana to the tip to prepare the signature move of the Dark Magician....the Dark Magic Attack. Although he hadnt fully learned to control it...it was better than being cut to peices, as the magic gathered at the tip.

"Here goes...nothing! Dark Magic Attack!" The small orb expands, and grows to about as large as a wrecking ball, as it fires right at the warrior.

[Rajal]

Rajal swings at the mage, trying to cut the mage appart, but couldnt seem to hit him. With a small frame compared to him, it was rather difficult...but he wasnt backing down. It was apparent that he couldnt leave the mage alone now, especually since he knew that he was still around.

"Stop moving you little insect!" Rajal growled as he took yet another swing at him, but this time was faced with a emence burst of magic coming his way. "Tch! You little fool!" He placed his sword infront of him again as the magic impacted...but it didnt disappeard like the bullets. Instead the magic ball was pushing him!

"WHAT!?" It suddenly started to cause Rajal to drag backwards further and further down the road up until it started to glow. Suddenly the ball blew, and dust settled around the area, as the Buster Blader was surprised on the force of the magic the mage caused. <Damn boy...he cracked my armor....> He thought, as he could see that his dragon armor was shattering a bit, as he frowned to Mahado.

"This is unexpected...but once again I underestimated you...boy." The warrior says as he sheaths his sword on his back.

[Mahado Darkstar]

Mahado was nearly exhausted from launching such a powerful attack...it wasnt as nearly powerful as he thought, as he could see that it didnt do much damage to Rajal. However he could see that it did manage to leave the armor he had in tatters, as it was slightly cracking. <If I only could work on that....a bit more....> Mahado thought to himself as he was ready for Rajal to attack.

To his suprise though, he saw that Rajal sheathed his sword, as he was about to leave the area. "What? Your leaving like that?" He panted, as he was nearly exhausted.
