An Old Friend With A Fight To Finish. (Burai)

[Wei Ning]

~Wei Ning~

~ Wei Sat upon a hill within the open plains letting his sences take in the fresh air, in the stary night. For a night sky it was slightly bright even without a fire to push the stars seemingly farther away from the land. All Wei had was his cup of tea within his grasp.~

~ His swords lay within their hilts upon the ground next to him as his pink cloak protected his body and flesh from the slightly cool breeze. His straw hat covered his face from view of the outside world unless he let it be so. With his eyes staring at the back of his eyelids, he sipped softly on his cup of tea. His mind in deep thought, about a return of an old sort of friend, whom he fought next to.~

~ This would be a good night to let the wind and silence take you into a nice deep slumber, but for some reason Wei wouldn't let himself go. He was preoccupied with the thoughts in his mind.~

[Yen Wang (Burai)]

Burai was returning from the day he had spent with his family. He was walking with his trident resting on his shoulders with his arms holding it in place. When he saw a man wearing a pink cloak. "Out of all things why pink?" He thought to himself, burai took a moment to glance at his own attire, and sighed uneasily. "I'm not one to talk."

He quietly approached the man from the side; standing at the base of the hill he shouted, "OY!" hoping that his shout would get hid attention. He slammed his trident firmly into the ground. "Oy..What kind of man wears a pink cloak?" Burai found it quite odd, he wanted an answer. He slowly cracked his knuckles and then grabbed the side of his neck and rough yanked it to the side, creating a chain reaction of loud snaps, crackles and pops.

[Wei Ning]

~Wei Ning~

~Wei smirked a bit as he heard the man yell and banter, Wei couldn't quite put his finger on it though. This man sounded familiar. Wei shrugged it off a minute to finish his tea while the guy cracked himself up. He then slowly pushed his body to a stand, his swords still on the ground next to himself he turned to face Burai.~

~"So, something wrong with pink?, or perhaps you should look at it a little differently." His hues scanned over the man never lifting his head so the straw hat continued to cover the majority of his face.~

~With wander Wei knew this man. Could it be, only one way to know for sure. "Besides you were never one to care about attire in the past Burai." He said with ever so calm words as he watched the man, for an reaction.~

[Yen Wang (Burai)]

Burai stared blankly at the man. He referred to him by his name. How odd, Everyone who he had met thus far didn't know who he was. Burai pondered on this for a moment. "A man in a pink cloak and a straw hat...I don't know anyone who fits that description.." Burai placed his hand on firmly on his trident. Then looked at the head of the trident. Its shimmered in the night's sky.

Burai shrugged "Too be honest, I don't care about the attire, just the color is something my daughter would wear. Seeing a grown man in that color. Is someone humorous and insulting. Judging from your attitude, I would assume that you don't care too much for others opinions or fashion." Burai couldn't help but find an odd aura about this man.

[Wei Ning]

~Wei Ning~

~He smirked a bit as he listened to his words. "Well, my cloak is very unorthadocs i'll give you that, but tis true i careless about fashion or opinions. Though this cloak does have a function." With those words he takes the cloak off and smirks letting it fall softly upon the ground, as he slowly picks up his duel swords the same two he's had forever in fact.~

~"So, tell me, have you figured out the function, or who i am?" Wei smirked softly as he tilted the straw hat slightly higher to show a bit more of his face, figuring his swords may give it away.~

[Yen Wang (Burai)]

Burai stared at the man bluntly; the expression on his face was rather dull. Seemed as if he was unimpressed. A smirk and a slightly raised eyebrow appeared on his face. "I would be weary...If a man were to pick up his weapons, I'd think he would be looking for trouble..."


"If I taught about the identity of each man, who wore womanly clothing. I would possibly have to be a maid, and give up on my warrior's pride and toss away my weapon. Pick up a skirt." The man lifted up his hat revealing his face. Burai lifted his trident and scratched the side of his head with it. "....." fragments of thoughts gathered together in his mind to form a picture of a man. "Wei Ning is that you?" Burai twirled his trident arounf violently, and pointed at the man. "If so, I have to give you a gift...A personal offering of my vendetta! Do you accept?"

[Wei Ning]

~Wei Ning~

~Wei smirked with the name that burai let escape his mouth. He then looked upon the tridant and blinked a bit as if he were in thought. With a slide of his hand he removed the straw hat fully and nods a bit.~

~"Well seems you still know me, good to see my old friend." Wei continued softly. "seems we owe each other a gift i see. Well If we will shall we continue then friend?" Wei asked as he dropped the hat ontop of the cloak leaving his destraction devices behind him as he drew his blades.~

~"If you will, I use those clothing items in my plots, but i wish to continue ours to our fullest. Yes it be a bit lady like, but it does set possible foes through a ripple." He smirked and pushed towards a stance, one sword over his head arm drawn back, his other sword straight up and down in front of his body. "Good luck." Were his last words awaiting his friend to get ready, it was the honorable thing to do after all.~

[Yen Wang (Burai)]

"You're the one that will need luck.." Burai suddenly tossed Nanki in the air. "Nanki Devour him!" As the trident flew in the air, Burai grasped the chain with both hands. He mustered quite a bit of strength and pulled the chain down forward. The suddenly movement cause a ripple allow the chain that ran all the way up to the trident. The trident arched downward and bellowed upon Wei like, like a violent wave crashing down upon an unsuspecting boat at sea.

Burai wasn't going to rush up that hill. That would only create misfortune. Fighting an uphill battle, would only mean victory for whomever is on the top. The one thing Burai had to his advantage was his range. He was going to force Wei Ning to come to him. "This fight shall be over before it began..." He was confident in his abilities, especially if Wei Ning hadn't improved. Burai remembered the last time they fought. He took it easy on him, this time. Burai had to take out his vengeance on him. For abandoning him in his time of need.

He almost had given up completely on such a petty emotion, but this would nbe his only chance to let out that anger, sadly Wei Ning would undertake his rage that was meant for all those who left him. Burai felt oddly conflicted; Wei Ning was a good soldier, and didn't deserve such hatred. He was no where to be found like the rest of them. When Burai needed them.

[Wei Ning]

~Wei Ning~

~Wei Smirked for a moment as Burai suddenly through the trident up. Wei wasn't stupid, and he knew Burai wasn't either. An up hill battle would be fulish, any skilled warrior would know that. Fortunatly they both where very skilled indeed.~

~Wei set his hues upon the Chain Burai held so fluently and then pushed his eyes upon the trident as it pushed down. "Faster then I expected." Wei said as he was forced to push himself forward off of his left heel. The trident slashed his shoulder, due to the lack of anticipation, Wei had no choice but to shrug it off as he pushed forward towards Burai.~

~He sidesteped to not be in the chains way as he threw one sword straight for Burai's stomache, hoping the focus of Burai was still upon his own weapon to as well catch him by surprise. Wei kept one sword for his defence and attacks until his other sword would be recovered, still pushing quickly for Burai.~

~Wei was sorry for not being there, he hadn't expected such a time when he had to leave, mostly for the burrial of his most trusted allies and friends. One to save Burai's old wife and another in the line of duty. Wei had duties to preform for his friends, he'd hoped Burai would of understood.~

[Yen Wang (Burai)]

Wei Ning would pay for his crimes. Burai grinned as he watched Nanki slashed his shoulder. Wei Ning brushed off the pain and moved forward. To make things better, he sidestepped; to evade the chains. Wei Ning threw one of his swords at Burai. That sword was a threat, but he couldn't waste alot of time dealing with it.

Burai couldn't waste alot of movement, He gripped the chains pulling them back fiercely. this caused another ripple along the chains that brought the end of the trident flying back toward Burai. Burai dug his left heel into the dirt and pivoted, the sword quickly flew passed him. "I don't have time for games...I will end this quickly." Burai lunged forward, with his chains in hand. He made sure to run directly in front of Wei Ning.

"We both are at a slight disadvantage, but I fear that his predicament is far worse than mine." Burai pulled on the chain again as he ran uphill; changing the course of the trident. A smirk on his face formed. He was confident that Wei would not be able to withstand his attack.

[Wei Ning]

~Wei Ning~

~Wei blinkd a bit as he saw the ripples from the chain as Burai pulled on it. His hues didn't need to wander behind himself as he knew what Burai was doing. He then tilted his head to see burai following up towrds himself quickly.~

~Wei found himself in a pincer type menuver. He sighed softly as he knew burai wasn't going to play to long with his attacks. He then moved faster towards Burai upon reaching the man he used the higher ground to his advantage. Pushing off with his right foot he pushed himself into the air and flipped his body into a front flip, hopefully making it over his foe and landing behind him.~

~Upon landing he took a minute to wip his shoulder before moving to pick up his other sword and looking up at Burai giving him the higher ground now, but also letting his own attack fly towards him as well.~

(hopefully i enterpartied your move right? if not let me know i'll modify, just pm me )

[Yen Wang (Burai)]

(You did no worries)

"Tch" Burai watched as, Wei Ning sailed over him. This was expected he had the higher ground, but Burai was hoping he would ignore that fact and charge him blindly. "Wei Ning, you gave up your position..and in this fight that is all I needed..." Burai continued to run forward toward; no. He didn’t show any effort in trying to stop it.

Burai began to count his footsteps, “I must do this flawlessly..” He needed to time this down to the last possible moment; if he did it any soon . Wei Ning would have some time to react. He didn’t want to give this man an inch. He would strike fear in the man’s heart. Show him why no one dared to face him. Burai began to change his breathing with each step that he took. The gap between him and Nanki was shrinking. His heart began to race; flatterly rapidly against his chest. This feeling was intoxicating. A sinister grin formed on his face. “Though the thrill of battle is overwhelming, it isn’t enough for me to forget his crimes..”

Nanki was about to collide with him. In one motion Burai quickly crouched; his knees where bent and his body sunk in. He allowed his momentum to carry him. He arched backwards and tilted his head as far as he could. Nanki flew over him, just by a few inches. Simultaneously Burai regained his posture and watched as Nanki flew down hill toward Wei Ning. The trident was picked up speed as it traveled downhill toward its prey

Burai stood up tall with his hands firmly on the chains. “This is the only the beginning of your judgement!”

[Wei Ning]

~Wei Ning~

~Wei smirked softly as he redirected the attack back down towards himself yet again. His hues focused upon the chain behind the trident and smirked softly as he spun himself just before impact.~

~ In the same moment he stopped next to the out stretched chain, pushing his sword into the chain he tugged hoping the Burai being at the top of the hill now wouldn't have as good of balance now and he'd pull Burai back to his level, for a more fare fight none the least.~

~"Well, old friend. You still have the moves but do you have the brains as well?" He smirked wider as he pulled with all his might upon his sword and the chain Burai also held so tightly.~

[Yen Wang (Burai)]

Burai gazed down hill, to see Wei ning prace around the trident; he wondered how he was able to do so, so quickly. “His reflexes are in humane..” Burai frowned slightly as continued to watch Wei Ning; he grew more annoyed by the second especially when he drove his sword in between the chains.

Wei Ning planned on taking advantage of his position. Suddenly pulled the chain, was he hoping to pull Burai off balance? Burai stared at his shoulder. “If you want me to come down…I wont.” He pulled back forcefully on the chain; his eyes focused on that wound. Wei Ning was foolish to try to out muscle him. After a few good jerks, Burai loosened his grip and eased up on the chain. The force Wei Ning exerted jerked his body forward. Burai staggered to the side toward that wounded shoulder.

He had a devilish grin on his face. “Do you think it’s wise to hold on to a snakes throat like that?” Burai jerked the chain to the sided; he snapped his arm from left to right. This caused an the chain to bellow, the current swam downward all the way to the blade Wei Ning held.

[Wei Ning]

~Wei Ning~

~Wei grunted towards the jerking back, his arm was infact a hemper on his plan, he shook his head and sighed tugging the sword out of the chain before the first ripple pushed to him.~

~"Hmmm, better balance then I thought friend." He said with a slight chuckle. His hues studdied the hill for a oment and found the least steep side and started to dart up. He proved his speed was great in his earlier action and Wei desided since Burai wouldn't come down he'd come up and fight on the same level as Burai.~

~"Alright dont come down but while you jump rope i'll make a proposal, we fight till one of us is knocked off the hill, that shall play whom the victor is." He said before making it up to Burai, making his strong hand sword slash upwards towards burai. "That work for you?"~
