The ground incubating Brutus began to quake. First simple tremors, and then a violent earthen upheaval. Shards of earth blasted up from where he lay, each coated in psychic energy, revealing his huddled form.

The ground broke, revealing green buds, which elongated into psychic-energy covered vines. The water from the small duck pond arose, and dispersed around him, as a mist. The grass around him burst into flame, and from the flames arose the sword. The wind became silvery and coalesced into strange shapes.

But Brutus...was unharmed. No wound, no bruise, not even a cut from Matsuri's previous attack. The glowing in his eyes had ceased, channeled now, back into his sword.

Having regained his composure, his clothes had gone back to normal, along with his socks and shoes.

He brushed his free hand through his hair, "If I can help it, I think I'd prefer to maintain my dignity. Even when I fight like a savage."

He leaped into the air, "Erro'otein dou teraiyein!" and touched the sword to the ground. Matsuri looked at him sideways. Obviously she didn't understand what he had done.

But she would when she realized she had been rooted to the ground. Brutus had finally mastered the "Tree Root" technique.

Matsuri sighs.
Matsuri: "This is more in my favor since mistress taught me a few nature spells. The power to create is the power to preserve, the power to harm is the power to destroy. So mote it be!"
At that the roots disappeared the technique having been cancelled out. Matsuri teleported and stabbed the death point of Brutus' sword with her fingernails. The sword broke into pieces having been destroyed utterly.

Brutus snorted. It was all he needed. The sword broke, sure, but At least she was close enough. He reacted, quick enough to make a cobra flinch, and grabbed her throat in a surprisingly powerful death-grip. As she struggled, the psychic power circulating through his hand prevented her from breaking free. Matsuri painfully in hand, Brutus whirled around full-speed. He was growing tired of how easily she disregarded his attacks.

Finally, he slammed Matsuri, hard as he could, onto the ground, and straddled her. He leaned in close, menacing her hatefully, and grasping her throat ever tighter. And when he finally grew bored with the struggle, he leaned in an inch closer...

And inhaled.

Little by little, he was literally taking her breath away.

Ya Think?

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Then your feelings are wrong.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Bah...they don't seem so tough.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

[Zaleramancer]

You gave Brutus a super-weapon.

:P

I think one of my people should spar with Dryad's next, or until Marv is done with his Gladiator (Gladiator until proven otherwise )

Maybe against Mayumi or Urim and Thummim (Who I assume fight as a team)

Dryad, which data point would they like to go against: Duplication, Strength, Swords, or Knowledge

What do you think Dryad?

Matsuri's thoughts: *So glad that right after he grabbed my throat I switched to the Star Wars theme and copied the ability of that one bird to not need to breathe. Now let's finish this.*
Matsuri fires ten blasts of ice at Brutus.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Mayumi: "No."
Urim & Thummim: "Maybe after Matsuri finishes and Mika will wield us."

[Philote]

Sound, Fire, and Ice, Ok, so which do they want to fight.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Urim & Thummim: "SWORDS!!!"
