PHOENIX: Tales from Easifa #2. SCALEHART Part Two.

--- Eadala: The Port Town of Naught - empty culdesac: Mid-Day ---

Rossy~ Well Well, good to see you too Mr.Scalehart

Savas~ You... Why are you here?

Rossy~ Oh Lieutenant. Are you sweating seeing little ol' me? Have you had your fun? Did you think you can forget what had happened?

Savas~ I have no idea what you're talking about!

Rossy~ Really? When was the last time you fed on Jinn my friend? 8 maybe 9 days? How much longer will you last? That Job those adventurers are on... They are going to find nothing... questions will start to arise. After all, YOU are the one that ate them all!

Savas~ Shut your filthy mouth you clown!

Savas starts swinging his blade at the green-haired madman. Rossy easily dodges his attacks and kicks away the crutch the Savas were using to stay up. The militia Lieutenant stumbles... But he firmly places the injured leg on the ground and attacks again! Rossy smiles.

Rossy~ I see... You're using the injured knee to explain your weakened state. Your fatigue from not feeding on Jinn. Hell, when was the last time you put on the mask I gave you?

Savas~ SHUT UP! I do not need that! Kairyu! {Ocean Current}

Savas' blade is engulfed by water, he swings his whole body with every attack of his blade. Rossy dodges several times, but Savas just spins and swings again! Finally, Rossy uses both of his palms to catch the blade. Savas keeps torquing his body and it starts to push Rossy back. The clown specter smiles at this raw physical strength.

Rossy~ Auferetur {Away}

In a flash, Savas' blade is replaced with a plastic sword.

Rossy~ You like? I saw it at a shop this morning! Still, I must give you credit Lieutenant. It has been a long time since anyone has physically pushed me.

Savas~ It's not over... Not yet. Mizu Hashira {Water Pillar}

Savas chucks away the plastic sword and crosses his arms in an X shape. Using as much magical essence as he can, he creates 4 long pillars of water via hydrogen molecules in the air. Rossy whistles.

Savas~ Odei {Sludge}

The pillars of water start to change colors to a deep purple. Savas grits his teeth hard trying to keep himself awake. He can feel his essence draining. Rossy laughs, he was so impressed by the militia Lieutenant.

Savas~ DOKURYU {Poison Dragon}

Savas shoots his four pillars at Rossy. The four pillars combine and create a giant poison pillar that engulfs half of the cul de sac. Savas falls to his hands and knees. Finally, he can move on... or so he thought.

Rossy~ Wow that was a lot of poison. I definitely would have died! How scary Lieutenant!

Savas can barely move his body. Rossy smiles and picks up a small pebble from the ground. He chucks it in the air, snaps his fingers; and it is replaced by a five-horned Jinn Mask! Rossy places it on the face of the motionless savas. All the essence he was craving for returns to him. The large man slowly gets up. Rossy snaps his fingers and several men in robes and Jinn masks. Savas stumbles and gets ready to fight again but Rossy wags his finger at the large scalebound.

Rossy~ Now, no need for that Lieutenant! These people are like you. They have tasted Jinn and yearned for it to survive! They have heard of your exploits and follow you. You must already realize that you have no choice here. If you want to live on, retire with your family, or go away from Easifa, you must continue to eat Jinn.
