My Bar

[Neebs]

*Neebs eyes snap open, spinning to his feet he takes up the challange thrown at him.
*His hands flash forwards and a ball of elemental wind energy flys accross the open space between him and Lord Apoc.
*The wind ball catches Lord Apoc behind the knees bringing him crashing to the ground face first, still a way out from the mine entrance.
*As lord Apoc rolls to his feet he sees Neeb is chasing him down with Staff drawn and a battle cry on his lips.

Ssssssssseeeeellllllllllgggggggggggguuuuuuuuuuhhhhh *Neeb shouts as the distance closes.

*Lord Apoc sword in hand, prepares to defend himself from this fearsome but small warrior
*As Neebs nears his opponant he fires off 3 fire balls at Lord Apocs legs.
*Apoc lowers his sword and deflects all 3 fire balls, only to look up and see Neeb almost upon him.
*Neeb jams his staff into the ground, a small rumble is heard, then a piller of earth shoots out of the ground, diagonally, and slams into Apocs Chest.
*Lord Apoc, unable to get his guard up in time, is pushed back and off balance,

*Neeb is still running forwards, he sprints up the piller of earth and just before it disitigrates he pushes off the top with a jump bringing Lord Apoc in range of his Staff
*Neebs spins in the air bringing his staff down 2 handed on Lord Apocs head.
*A resounding CRACK! is heard around the arena, leaving no doubt who scored the first hit.
*Lord Apoc already off balance staggers back, his sword almost useless by his side in his current dizzy state.
*Neebs lands in front of the dazzed Apoc, his momentum putting him into a roll which goes through Apocs legs.
*Coming out the otherside Neebs races off in another direction.
*While lord apoc shakes his head to try and throw the feeling of dizzyness, Neebs is casting.
*6 Balls of elemental energy appear around Neeb as he gains some distance on his opponant, ready for whatever comes next.

[Z3R0]

*Leans over and whispers in Pamela's ear*

"At this rate, if Neebs keeps going on the offensive, Apoc just might have his work cut out for him.*

*chuckles slightly*

"I think he will do just fine however, he is our son. He is bound to inherit at least some of our warrior skills."

[Pamela]

*Leans towards Zerok to respond to his statement*
*Said in a quiet musical voice The Lady Pamela voices her opinion with eyes twinkling in merriment*
My Lord I think that our son will do well,however never underestimate a mage. My friend is quite accomplished,and our son is somewhat weak to magic. Apoc is a versatile and well trained fighter,I am enjoying this match immensly!

*The Lady Pamela leans back in her seat and continues watching the fight ,only possible because of a viewer provided by Zerok.Seeing as how this is in a mine and not easily accessed for viewing,the entire arena of patrons are also viewing this in the same manner.*

(Out of character) Think big screen T.V.and Football people.It.s a Bar.

[Venom]

hmm... it seems as if neebs wants this to end as soon a possable, i wonder why
*the rest of the entrances to the mine shaft vanish once again my place my right hand on to the pedistal*
5th terraform art : gaikou!
*more air shafts are added and the light inside has become quite dim allowing the fighters to see olny a few feet ahead*
the stage of the fight has been selected by the fighters

[The Beast]

*walks over to venom*
so your controlling the field i see?

[Venom]

well i not that powerful when it came to this so i need to use the pedistal to apmfly it.
*laughs a bit*
[scarcasm]
its not like i have allmighty unstopable powers that can do anything
[/scarcasm]
other than my arts and my special skills nothing has really changed since i left ,but i got a sweet new skill a little while ago before i worked at the bar
*sighs*
i wish i could use it :p

[Lord Apocalypse]

GAH!! *Apocalypse brings his guard back up his sight returning so that the three neebs become one* *thinks*~my turn~

*Apocalypse runs full tilt at the tiny mage sword held low scoring a snaking pattern in the floor* ~time it right, time it right by the gods let me time it right~ *Apocalypse reaches the swirling balls and ducks and twirls arround one as it would hit him moments later, using the momentum of the twirl Apocalypse brings the hilt of his sword round and smacks Neebs square in the mouth with the pommel*

cast with out words,

Apocalyse then goes about quick darting defensives and attack aimed at the mages hands to prevent him casting while all the time trying to avoid the balls of nergy*

Cast without words or hand gestures young one, I've never seen it done

[Neebs]

*Neebs coughs blood, his staff twirling in his hands as he parries Lord Apocs ferocious onslaught.
*Ducking and weaving Neebs is pushed back, his mind races through spell after spell and laws of magic.

Many books and styles of magic exists, this is the one that Neebs thinks of now;
(Magic comes from the mind and surrounding energies. Words, gestures and tools are mearly conduits to focus the power, or used to enhance the spell itself. Casting without words, gestures or tools, is possible, but will have a far greater drain on the mage. In theory any spell is possible under any circumstances, however great care must be taken not to exhaust yourself, an exhausted mage is a dead mage, as mentioned in CH6 Know your strengths.) - quote from - Magic for the Master, CH7

*Neebs his mind full of magic laws, controling his elemental energy balls, and trying to block/parry Lord Apocs attacks, is struggling.
*The swirling pattern of the elemental balls is helping keep Lord Apoc at bay, Neebs staff stopping anything that gets too close.
*The elemental balls gradually start to drift away as Lord Apoc presses the attack and Neebs has to concentrate on his staff work.

(Tools!!! "Words, gestures and tools are mearly conduits to focus the power")
(Can save your energies)

*Block, Parry, Twist, Duck, Roll, Parry, Parry, Dodge
*Clash, Clang, Swish
*Lord Apoc sensing his advantage pushes forward and swings the flat of his blade, horizontaly at Neebs Head
*Neebs raises his staff to block and Apoc braces for the impact as the weapons collide,
*Neebs colapses his staff and ducks,
*Lord Apoc sword continues its swing through the air, off balanced by the surprise at no impact.
*Neebs extends his staff as he lunges (gesture) with his staff (tool), the end conecting with Apocs chest. In that same instant, Lightening energy travels from Neebs hands down the staff and into Lord Apoc catapulting him backwards a good distance with a Bang that echos round the arena.
*Neebs grins and spits blood
*As Lord Apoc tries to stagger to his feet, Neebs throws his arms wide and brings back the elemental energy balls to him.
*Flinging his arms forward, he fires them off at his opponant,

*Lord Apoc blocks the first and second
*The third hits the shoulder pushing him off balance
*The fourth hits his chest driving him past the mine entrance
*The fith hits his hip, spinning him off balance to waver on the edge of an open shaft
*The sixth hits him square on, tippping over him over the edge of the shaft falling into the depths of the mine below.

*Neebs gathers his energies around him, preparing some more elemental balls and awaiting to see if Lord Apoc will emerge able to continue.

[Blue]

*orders a cake frome the consession stand*
*starts talking to the worker there*
"so who do you think will win?"

[Pamela]

*Pamela leans next to Zerok and whispers a few words meant only for his ears*
My Lord~said quietly~ I think our son may be out matched.Let us give this a bit and if Apoc can not recover from this attack I think the winner is obvious.Neebs is certainly being fair.
What say you my Lord?
*Pamels gazes at her lover with a warm smile ,then turns her attention back to the match at hand,silently cheering both opponents on*

[Z3R0]

*sitting there watching the match very intently, Zero hears Pamela's words, whispered ever so softly in his ear*

*He does not like the idea that his son might lose, yet, there is no denying Master Neeb's prowess in battle*

*sighing deeply, he takes his lady's hand and gently strokes the backside with his giant thumb*

"It would seem, that Neebs is putting up quite a fight. And I do agree that he is being every bit fair. Let us wait and see what shall occure in these next few minutes."

[Frai7ty]

*looks at Frail7ty, eyes turned crimson red*
yes i have some of it's memories... and you seem familiar to me...

*Walks over to Beast*

"I am sorry that I could net respond, my mind was... streched thin."
"I may not know you, but my soul, or Avatar as it would be, is very old. It, not" "me, may have met you in one of it's past incarnations."

(OOC: I mau not be on mcuh l8tly, as it's close to x-mas, and I now have a G/F to worry about. )

(OOC: We know hun ^^ be safe and happy)
Love Pamela

[Allpone]

{Allpone having been in his tree for several hours watching things as they progress decides to take Khal’Urvho and grab a bite to eat in the bar. Walking in he sees a server girl all alone wiping down counters and cleaning up. Allpone makes his way to is usual table and waits for the server girl to get his order . }

Allpone speaks : “ So what did you do that makes it wear you have to miss the arena events ? ”

She replies in a sassy way : “ Maybe the better question is why aren’t you watching them still ?”

{Things go silent the server girl now approaches the table and Allpone says what he wants to eat along with a glass of water. Then the server girl slips off to the back to prepare the meal.}

[Lord Apocalypse]

*Apocalypse Lies on the ground his eyes wide, clearly finiding difficulty in drawing breath*

Amazing, simply amazing. *Apocalypse smiles and coughs ups blood*

*holding his hand up Apocalypse turns to neebs and says*

Well done.......... help me friend

[Neebs]

*Neebs takes off his Hat and bows to Lord Apoc,

"Thank you, you have been a challanging and honourable opponant, I have to admit I was worried thought you had me for a while."

*Neebs waddles over to Lord Apoc, places a hand on his chest.

"Lie still my friend, there is some damage there"

*Apocs chest starts to tingle as Neebs draws on his healing magic to aid him.

"There that should help, lets get to the infirmary and get healed up."

*Neeb takes Lord Apocs hand and helps him too his feet.
*Together they make there way to the edge of the arena, stopping to bow to the Judges, the crowd, and the other members of the bar, before seeking out the infirmary.

[Pamela]

*The Lady Pamela stlill with her hand in Zerokz,rises gracefully to stand and urges her Lord to his feet as well*
*Casting a glance to her Lord ,and with her eyes somewhat shimmering,due to emotions,she bows to both of the brave fighters*
*Pamela watches as Neebs helps her son and leads him to the rest he deserves*
*Bestowing a warm smile she lifts a slender arm and waves with a warm smile bestowed at him*

*Turning first to her Lord for confirmation and seeing his nod...Pamela then adresses the crowd from the Bar*

*With a sweeping gesture Pamela motions for quiet ,as the crowd had gotten a bit rowdy*

My patrons I see that this fight has ended and I declare Neebs the winner..he will move on to future rounds and opponents in the tournament.
Both put up an excellent fight and I commend them heartily.
Sir venom will have the roster of the next 2 combatants,and shall duly enquire as to the battle preferences of both.

*Pamela turns to Allpone and spears him with a peircing gaze*

Sir you are multi-talented to be sure ,with many job classes and a familiar.
In the interest of fairness the familiar will be disallowed in your next match.
You will have to state which class of fighting you intend to use before the match and stay with that particular class.

*Pamela nods to him and taking Zeroks hand walks to the infimary*

[Mathalamus]

* recorder stops*

Mathal: we interrupt the battle to give you a break from it

* it resumes*

* mathal is slain by lady pamela*

[Z3R0]

*nodding to Allpone as well, Zero heads off to the infirmary with his Lady*

*turning to his love, he speaks to her about the fight*

"He fought well enough didn't he?"

*sighing and squeezes her hand softly*

"I suppose I should take him aside when he gets better and practice with him. He needs to learn to block and counter with speed and efficiency. I want to teach him the valuable skill of aniticpating an opponents next move in order to block and counter effectivly."

[Venom]

*turns to allpone*
i guess your class in all sense would be that of an adept rouge correct or atlest that was what my kingdom would classify yourself , highly adaptable but not a master of each skill...

*extends a hand*
best of luck in the next fight
*after they shake hands i head to the bar to check on the current roster*
hmmm so far is just allpone... pamela won her fight but who else
