Gravitron

-In my defence I've died to many times before to really care about that...

Vlad grinned at hito drawing a western style longsword from his coffin

-I'll play this close quarters!

Hito looked at the broadsword with a smile..

-Are you planning to fight a upcomming reaper with that?-

Vlad raised an eye brow at the question

-Well I've already defeated the reaper before with this blade... so I figure one more scythe weilding warrior couldn't be to dificult

Vlad points the sword tip to the ground standing in a sort of preparative stance that looked rather relaxed.

Hito smiled.. He tensed up the muslces i his legs, and prepared to attack vladimir.. Tightening his grib on Chikara, he rushed it forward, not stepping closer to Vladimir though..

-CHe, must have been a fake one-

(did you throw the scythe at me?)

Vlad thought to himself

-Death is not a force you can easily mistake young man... you would be wise to remember that... No... I remember the fear he invoked as he claimed life after life... I had been tracking him for a long time... to prove something I had learned... in the end I discovered I had been right... also I learnt that death cannot be given death... I suppose I sympathise with him...

(Ehm,, yes.. It's a reckless technique he has^^^_)

-Che. you must have met the wrong person.. Reaper doesn't hand over death.. He takes away life. And i am going to be the Reaper who takes away death.. I just need to raise above his level-

He spoke calmly, as the Scythe made it's way through the air, and flew over vlad, where he then pulled the chain... It would cut through vlad's shoulder if not done anything..

Vlad looks at hito confused

-umm.... that is just what I said.... he takes life after life.... and he cannot give me death...

Vlad raised his hand catching the scythe still in though

-Take away death? That's a terrible idea! That would be the same as taking away birth... Being afraid of death or disliking it would be like fearing or loathing birth... polar opposites that are destined for almost every being in the universe...

Hito sighted, facepalming himself with a mind hand.. Or that is what he imagined

-Not like that.. Think about it.. We see it everytime.. People killed on the streets.. What if they had somethign important to say to their loved ones?-

-Well then their loved ones will have to live without that last word... It is nature my boy... for life to be taken and given on random intervals.... In fact it almost makes me envious...

Vlad continued to hold the scythe in place making sure not to let it cut him.

-But most people wouldn't understand that I suppose...

Hito looked up at the guy with a rather annoyed face...

-Do you have any idea how much Death,, cheats nature?

Vlad grinned back at Hito

-Do you know how much nature cheats him?

Hito smiled back at Vlad

-Not as much as he has cheaten me-

Vlad chuckles

-Or perhaps your scythe? All in nature attempts to play fair... but remember.. in the long run nature cannot be cheated out

Vlad tipped up his blade pointing the tip to hito

-Come...

Hito smilled, he thrusted his left foot forward, and leaped into a jump, in which he curled together, and brought Chikara left sideways down at vlad, It would cut his chest...

Vlad held the blade with his right hand, he held it up stopping the scythe dead in it's tracks the immediate stop in power resulted in a burst of wind rushing down on Vlad and denting the ground beneath him. That's a lot of power for a human... hmmm Vlad looked up to hito smirking as he pushed the scythe back and threw and intricate number of swings at Hito at a rapid pace with incredible power behind each swift, crisp swing.

Hito was send back by vlad's overwhelming power. He was attacked a number of times, but succeding in blocking every hit, he stopped it in the last second everytime, and was pushed back a few centimetres for every attack, but didn't stop standing, he did not flinch, and with the last attack, he blocked it with the very end of his handle, using that push he turned Chikara around, and sidestepped the attack, Hopefullly cutting Vlad across his back..

Vlad's arm twitched just before the attack was about to hit him, but instead of blocking Vlad walked forward as a large burst of blood splashed out of his back then trickling out calmy. A low, slow and powerful laugh echoed through the air

-heheheheheheheheheheh.... How does it feel to hit me?

Vlad did not turn to face hito

Hito cut through vlad, clean, and deep, it splashed out with blood, in all dirrection, it did not hit Hito's face though.. He stepped further away, and hammerd The handle of Chikara into the floor

-It feels like i thought it would feel.. Easy-

-Good good! Because there's one thing you should know!

Vlad still stood there with his long sword tilted to the side as a voice resonated over his shoulder

-That'll be the only time today I'll let you cut me! heheh

Vlad then rushes his blade into hito's mid back.

It's not like he he didn't see the attack comming. It was not like his body was not able to react.. He just felt like being stabbed,, felling the sharp metal pierce his stomach...

Vlad held Hito on his blade as he lifted him up slightly looking at him inquizzitively

-There was no movement... It seems you're a fan of death as well?

Flickering Chikara, the chain at the end of it, hurls through the air like a iron whip, hopefully whacking Vlad across his manly face(xD), whether it hit or not was Futile.. No matter what Hito would use the, if even just a second. Og flinching push himself of the sword, landing down, bleeding hard from the Enceinte wound in his back....

-If you want to defeat death.. you will have to try it once-

Vlad caught the chain as it whipped around, as he did so he swung the blade upwards freeing hito from the blade he then swung the chain around along with nasin and the chain and released it once he had hit an according speed causing him to make a dent in one of the metal walls.

A nifty technique indeed, Hito thought as he was swung around, "But what if this happens?" he pulled Chikara, pulling himself closer to the chain, Confidently letting go of the beautiful shaft of his belowed weapon, he grapped the chain, still feeling chikara's spirit, it made him think clearer. Swinging Chikara just a little by twisting his left hand, The blade grew into the wall, breaking it into a large crack, it stopped the thrust, just before Hito was to collide with the wall, Releasing the wind pressure on him, flacking both feet into the wall, he took no damage at all, holding on to the chain with his left hand, he pulled Chikara with the left, releasing a "Click" sound as the blade was drawn from the wall, dropping Hito to the floor..

-You are quite good-

He spoke with convintion, and flashed a never before seen smile. Even Chikara was wondering about what it could mean, they were tight bounded, but he could not see through the seemingly updated smile of Hito. He could feel it was close bounded with joy. But what kind of joy.

"The joy of a enemy, or the joy of a fight"

Hito had never respected his enemies, which was the key reason this smile was never before seen. Vlad seemingly had something about it. Maybe it was his fighting style, maybe the way of speech, nevertheless it woke up a sleeping animal in Hito, releasing it's furious wings, upon the world, Hito rushed forward, zic-zacing closer to vlad, gliding Chikara's blade along with the chain still in vlad's hand, it broke through it, giving Vlad a 2 ft long chain in his left hand. Chikara's blade hurled through the air, cutting through the resistance it would cut his chest, maybe even make it's way to his heart, if nothing was done to prevent it..

Vlad leaned to the side as the blade just barely missed him and he dived lunging his blade towards Hito in this confusing moment of high speeds.
