It begins nearly instantly, one moment it is a broken conversation she didn't want and now this.. I watch as she darts side ways trying to intercept Illumi's stream of pins but Silva interrupts her counter and delivers a swift blow to the her gut.
I stare in fascination as she shows no reaction and grabs his arm in retaliation. Yuki yanks him back in swiftly, connecting her own blow just as Zeno strikes from the back. His nen passing through her and jetting outwards, Silva already a safe distance away.
I continue to watch this play out with my back against the door. The Zoldycks zip around and continue to attack without restrictions and my poor flower is starting to struggle, trying to keep up with the onslaught. I can't look away, torn between joining in and wanting to stop it.
The 4 of them have been exchanging blows for nearly an two hours now. None of them in a worse for state then Yukinaru. It's clear she has reached her limit finally. Her movements are slowing and her response time is dropping.
"Alright I think that's about enough of this game ♤~." I don't even make it a step forward before Haiji is in front of me.
I look down, his hair on ends, heckles raised and his whole body tense. It doesn't take long for me to realize what's actually happening in the center of the room. I hear a collective gasp from the Zoldycks as silence over takes the training ground.
I watch as her wings flick out with full force, her bloodlust reaching new levels in toe. Her nen glows a deep shade of blue and her eyes darken. I take note as the Zoldycks step back and regroup at the far end of the room.
Erratic flames of lightening flicker out from her wings as she begins to breathe heavier. Her wounds heal as her weapon of choice takes form, Higiroshi. This is becoming ever so intoxicating, she seems very feral right now..
Grinning wickedly, I launch a card at her, breaking the stiled air. She responds reflexively, the scythe swining out slicing the card in half and then chaos ensues. A feral scream splinters the air and she lunges forward intent on landing her attack.
I dodge, easily jumping over her and landing in the back of the room. "Well it seems everything is going as expected♤~."
"Indeed. Keep your wits about you, we can't baby sit you." And Zeno leaves just as quick and joins the fight.
After what feels like days of fighting a wild beast, Yukinaru is standing still once more in the center of the room. She is ready to fight but hasn't once taken the initiative against any of us. Taking this much needed pause to catch our own breath, best time to voice thoughts.
"She doesn't seem to be aware..her attacks and counters weren't holding any tact..." I cough up some blood looking at Illumi next to me, "Do you think this will work♤~?"
"Patience." Is all he says to me.
I roll my eyes watching Haiji who still hasn't moved from where we were. His demeanor growing ever more explosive. "Should be anytime now," I nod in the direction of her motionless cat.
Suddenly, as if on que, I feel the ground tremble beneath my feet, the walls splintering simultaneously. The ceiling cracking outwards over her head, jagged stone bursting from the ground around her feet.
Black substance starts to ooze from the created shadows, as she begins to scream. I watch as she falls to her knees, her hand cradling her head. The screams hit our ears like sonic attacks, nearly crippling my own legs.
I bare witness to her memories rapidly flickering in the flames burning around her. In mere moments it feels as though I have lived another life and yet don't know of it.
The unrestricted release of raw power envoples everything, and the images in the blaze are being replaced with blackness. The flames slowly turning jet black, blacker then even the shadows reaching up.
I watch with amazement as she stands once more, the stillness echos off in slient waves. Wings darkening as the flames over take her being, her nails sharpen and fangs pronounced grace her lips..
Yuki's expression is empty and her eyes hallow, yet she is raging like a storm. Her grip is so tight around her scythe, the whites of her knuckles are still seen clearly. An overwhelming thirst for the oppent's blood explodes around me. Her laughter is full of madness as it reverbates through the room. I watch as she flaps her wings, taking me in her sights.
"Finally♤~. Look at that burning bloodlust! It could lash out any moment! I'm even more intrigued by the mysteries this woman holds!"
Illumi and Silva both motion at me to shut up, and take a stance in preparation for an attack. Looking more intently I notice what is setting them on edge this round.
I watch as Higiroshi sways in front of her, released from her grip now, both fully engulfed by same black flames. I can hear the faint distortion of whispers stemming from the weapon."I'm killing them."
"Kill now."
"How should I kill them?"
"Just kill them now."
"Drain their blood."
"Take their souls."
"Kill now."
"I'm killing them!"This ardent desire to kill the opponent is one of the many things so fun about my dear flower. Haiji appears at her side pulling me from my thoughts. His state clearly effected through the link they share, no longer able to fight against the pull.
Chrollo appears suddenly behind her, landing solid blow to her neck with powerful surge of nen. I watch in disbelief as she suddenly crumbles to the ground along with Haiji.
The shock of the calm stuns everyone here equally, as I look at Chrollo holding an unconscious Yuki. He glares at all of us with clear anger before opening his book and disappearing with her.
