Crow chuckles
"Yea but if a death does occuer my life will be forfeit anyway so i might as well make it worthwhile"

"Eh ive gotta go see ya guys and try not to murder each other"

*Even as the man-dragon continues to change Ashcroft closes his eyes and lets the rest of the demon in. For a moment nothing happens, and then slowly his eyes open to reveal the icy blue orbs are now an opaque black.*
"Don't worry Crow, I won't kill him. I know what Jallil and especially Mobius do to people that break the rules. However as he said, there's no guarantee that he'll return the favor." Ashcroft calls out, his voice now much raspier and filled with meaningless whispers.

"This should get interesting" the hybrid said a little bit off flame escaping its lips.

"My thoughts exactly. You ready big guy?"

"Yes" the hybrid yelled the two swords in his hands becoming one.

The hybrid smiles noticing the attack he flies into the air meeting his opponent blade to blade while a tail sprouted which he was trying to hit his opponent with.

*The freshly sprouted tail surprises him, and in order to avoid it he pushes off his opponent's blade and lands back on the ground*

The hybrid circles the man throwing the blade.

*With a quick slash he knocks away the thrown weapon, and eyes his airborne opponent with his sword held at ready.*

The hybrid smiles diving at his opponent while breathing fire.

*Twisting into his shielding position, he holds his sword between him and the sheet of flame, with the flat of the blade facing outward and the tip planted firmly into the ground.*

The hybrid lands and continues to breath fire while dislodging the sword from a nearby tree.

He quickly lashed out at his opponent with sword tail and talons.

*As the fire lets up slightly the demon-man twists out of his defensive posture unbelievably fast and whips off a diagonal rising slash at his approaching foe, followed by a broad sweeping stroke at the dragon-hybrid's torso.*

The hybrid quickly takes a step back and increases the rate of fire while rising into the air trying to gain the advantage over his opponent.

*Realizing how disadvantaged he is on the ground, the demon-hunter holds up a hand toward the dragon fire and a hazy cloud of red mist suddenly fades into existence. As the flames continue to scorch the surprisingly substantial mist the crimson haze begins to seemingly climb up the flames towards the winged hybrid. Even as he does this he feels the demon begin to lash out at his control, and he manages to momentarily suppress it.*

The hybrid flies higher trying to penetrate the red mist but is failing.

"What is this!" the hybrid yells as the mist climbs steadily towards him.

"A manifestation of sorts. I wouldn't touch it too much if I were you."
*As Ashcroft speaks the mist momentarily shimmers, but he then pours all his concentration into maintaining the deadly haze and the shimmering stops. Small cuts begin to appear along the hand from which the mist is issuing, but for the moment he ignores them.*

The hybrid yelled as the mist quickly caught his foot which felt like it was being dipped in acid.

*As the mist touches the hybrid's foot, Ashcroft closed his hand and the mist solidified around the winged hybrid's leg and pulled him toward the ground. However as he did this Ashcroft's focus was beginning to slip, and the wounds on his arm continued to grow.*

The hybrid yelled as the mist solidified trying to pull his leg out his arms were quickly swallowed and he yelled even louder knowing it would eventually swallow him whole, and kill him.

*Even as the dragon-hybrid hits the ground the mist begins to dissipate, and Ashcroft falls to his knees as his arm continues to bleed freely.*

The hybrid looks at the severely injured limbs and tries to move them but that only causes him more pain, he tries to stand but quickly collapses back to the ground nursing his wounds.

Crow reenters the arena
"Wow they havent killed each other yet im surprised"
