Between him and Past Sting crouched [Y/N].
Half of her body was painted black from the spreading wound inflicted by Rush.
"There she is," the God Slayer smirked toothily, "the one who started this all."
"Yeah, I damn right did start it," she growled, "and I'm here to end it."
The two had a stare-down, [E/C] meeting yellow.
"I won't deny it, [Y/N]. Your being here does strike some kind of fear in me," Rush spoke, "maybe it's because you've struck me down before, I don't know. But trust me. This time, we both know, you won't win."
"I won't win?" the Sound Dragon Slayer repeated, "you drag my family into this, hurt them all, and you think I won't win?"
Rush's attitude shifted, "it seems you've come here with an insatiable hunger for blood. Well, that makes two of us."
Black tendrils of shadow swirled all around him, smoke gathering at his feet. Rush wasn't playing around, and neither was [Y/N].
Her magic aura amplified as she immediately entered the Dragon Force for this battle.
"Mm, what a sight to behold. I'm graced with the Dragon Force for this battle," he smirked, "well, lets get this started, shall we?"
"Enough talking!" [Y/N] rushed at him, "Sound Dragon's Crushing Fang!"Magic amplified tenfold, she twisted in the air and swiped for Rush in a claw-like fashion. He nimbly dodged aside, shouting out a spell as balls of Shadow Magic volleyed towards her. She danced between them with ease and aimed a kick for his face. It landed, but he was not downed for too long.
"Shadow God's Judgement Day!" a giant hammer constructed entirely of shadows appeared above [Y/N] and all at once it crashed down on her, dealing a massive amount of sheer blunt damage. She yelled out and rolled from beneath it.
"Sound Dragon's Vireo Slash!" she leapt from side to side and, combating his attack, landed her foot into his diaphragm to pelt him away and, whilst he was midair, assaulted him with a barrage of destructive sound waves. He skidded backwards onto his feet and returned an attack.
For a long, long time did this battle continue in the same manner - one attack, a dodge, a hit, another and another and another, until both were on the brink of collapse, hunched and panting. [Y/N] had never held onto the Dragon Force for this long before, and she struggled to retain it.
"Given up yet?" she still managed to slip in a snarky comment.
"Oh... I'm just getting started, [Y/N]," Rush rose to his full height again, "God Slayer Secret Art:..."[Y/N]'s eyes shot wide and she braced herself.
"Mortal Doomsday!"
Milliseconds before this attack was released, the Dragon Slayer shrieked out, "Dragon Slayer Secret Art: Sonic Boom!"
A unstoppable wave of shadows met an immovable force of sound waves and, as they collided, became an infinity from nothing paradox and a deafening sound rang out. Nothing was clear for a while, the only sound the loud screaming from the ploughing of both attacks.
And when the dust fell, both were barely left standing. Rush was collapsed onto his knees whilst [Y/N] hunched over herself.
"I... I don't understand..." Rush raged, "how... how are you still standing?!"
[Y/N] weakly raised the arm that was blackened from the wound, previously wreaked by the man in front of her.
"In wounding me like this, you... you gave me the ability to absorb your magic power," she managed a grin.
"No..." he choked.
