Thread: The Princess and the Dragon ( DudeGuy and HKitten )

There were three more matches before the semi final matches came about. Many of the warriors disabled their opponents or each other in past matches. There were just a handful of them left now, and the competition would be heating up even more now. There was a barrier all around the arena now, to protect the spectators from being harmed as the Dragons would no doubt be using more powerful abilities in their bouts in an attempt to impress the Royal Family, and most importantly, the heir to the throne. Risen was set to compete in the first of the matches, along with another Dragon that had finished their match in a rather flashy matter. The guard who served as the referee came forth once more, introducing the two warriors. He then announced the beginning of the match, then jumped back out of the way. The competitor dropped back into a stance, then performed a few Tai Chi like movements, rousing the earth below himself. He rose slightly into the air on a pedestal of earth, several rings of earth rose around him, swirling around him quickly. What appeared to be a dragon made of earth quickly flew in Risen's direction. She jumped to the left to dodge it, finding that there was another rising from the place where she landed. With a fancy shuffle of her feet, she stepped back holding a hand up to shield her face. The earth dragon cut the back of her hand open, causing it to bleed. The open wound was quickly covered by black scales, and those scales soon covered her entire hand. Risen's fingernails lengthened and sharpened. She didn't want to have to go this far before the final match, but it would be reckless of her not to. When the next dragon came flying her way she struck out at it with her claw. Upon impact, a spark could be seen blowing the dragon to bits. A flurry of different earth dragons came flying in her direction. She jumped up into the air, then kicked off of the nearest earth dragon and jumped off it and down to the nearest dragon, quickly making her way through them until she was right upon her enemy. She skillfully maneuvered behind him, spinning around to deliver a kick to his torso. Her attack was easily blocked and countered, the blow rattling her skull and sending her back to the ground. She flipped over backward, narrowly managing to come to a stop on her feet. Another dragon flew in her direction, this one larger than the others. The attack was heading directly toward the crowd. She dropped down to her back and punched upward breaking the dragon apart. She rolled over onto her side, then popped up into the air, landing on the back of it as it flew back to the man. Once it was close enough, she jumped up into the air. After several rotations, she hit the earth dragon and broke it to bits. The man struck out at her, she blocked the blow and slid back a few feet. The instant she stopped moving, she took off running at the man. A punch was thrown at the man, he narrowly dodged it by spinning around wrapping earth around his hand to strike hat her. She blocked the blow with her clawed hand, sending a shock into the man's body. She flipped around and landing a blow to the man's head with her foot. It sent a shock through the man's body once more, leaving a tingling sensation. Risen turned slightly, landing several blows on the man. Each blow sending shocks through his body. She ended the fight with a final blow to the man's face, the bolt that transferred into his body sent into the ground twitching. Once again, Risen turned to face the royal family and bowed.
