Serious: Ryu and Minato Assassinate Mara!!! Chapter 1

Xark blocks and moves her blade by using both of his katanas and flips over her. "I'm always aware of my surroundings. Youn can't sneak up on me." He uses his tail to grab her hnad that was grabing the blade and yanks her out of the ground. "Shadow Twister!" He spins in high speed and sends dark energy waves in all directions.

saying that you grabed her hand, at leist in this senario is calling a hit

(really? man then this is getting hard. so a single tap would also be called a hit then?)

no, not at all, and normaly you can grab people without it being called a hit, but this time if she got grabed she would die because it would drain all her life enargy, a hit right?

(oh I get the misunderstanding: Admin-Sama is saying that you can touch people and grab them and all as long as it doesnt mean that you instantly kill off their character. Which he thinks your doing by grabbing her. I believe however that it was not your intent, and merely grabbed not to suck her energy but to make it easier for you to hit her with your next attack, right?)

(actually, I only drain if my right arm grabs them, my tail can't drain. that is correct.....althought that would be nice if it did.)

(Though I still feel that even if you were to start the energy drain procedure that it won't be instantaneous, it would take longer the stronger the person and they could try to resist and repel you or something)

((oh, whatever then no problem))

(hurray a mystery is solved! and ya it wouldnt be an instant drain it will take a while)

Mara was being spun around like a rag doll, being held by the Xark's tail. The dark energy stung as it hit her, but the fool had left himself far too open. "Bye bye." That was all Mara said as she twisted her wrist hard, bringing her sword right into Xark's tail. Even if he let go, he'd still be cut. And even if he kept his tail attached to himself, it would be cut. Her weapon only being previously an inch from Xark's tail, there would be no way he could even block it.

Xark gets his tail cut off and as she fell with the tail she sees that he isn't in pain. "...wow, you cut my tail. Big deal." The cut tail begins to strike at her even though it is cut off. "Its no big challenge to let it get cut off, tails grow back easily." Just then his tail grows back and the tail that she cut off just begins to glow. "Good Bye!" The cut off tail explodes with dark energy near Mara.

Mara was sent flying when Xark's tail was cut and she began to panic when she saw the tail start to glow. Throwing her left arm in front of her face, she prayed she would hit the ground before-- BOOM. After the tail exploded, Mara was nowhere to be seen. She had retreated back into the ground, but she wanted to scream. The blast had injured her arm powerfully. The only good news was that it was not the arm she needed to wield her sword. The real bad news was that she wouldn't be able to fight right now. There were plenty of higher ups on this island. Surely one of them was on their way.

((cue Dartz.... unless hes a coward (that should get his attention LOL) Mara has to live to one day meet Jackson, and mabey Sano))

(thats no fun, how can I kill people if they all need to live another day? T_T....fine I'll do the same thing as I did in my last fight, remove ALMOST all of the life energy. just eneough to feed him but leave enough so she lives.)

Xark looks around and then sniffs. "blood.....I got her. Now to drag her out of the floor." Xark slams both hands into the floor and then his shadow spreads across the intire ground. "Where are you my meal?" The shadow reachs where she's at and then Xark looks there and grins. "there you are."

Sensing the call for help, Dartz zooms to the scene at Superman-like speed. (If anyone actually watched smallville, the room looks as if time has stopped) Dartz saw Xark was near Mara and a shadow that covered part of the ground. He saw Xark stood there, smiling, in the process of pulling Mara out of the floor, that is if he wasn't frozen. Dartz quickly takes Mara out of the room and into Marine Admiral Raizens room, explaining to Raizen that he asks him to protect her while he gets rid of the intruders. Then zooms back into the room, and lets time flow normally again(because beating Xark while time is frozen is unfair). Xark was totally confused now wondering what happened and where was the Captain. Dartz spoke in his unusual mysterious and emotionless way, "looking for something?"

"..Dartz." Xark finished his sentence. "Allways appearing when you must save someone." The shadow returns to him. "I know of your strength and your life energy will be mine." Xark activates the life energy he gathered to increase his power and he gets covered in a dark aura and his eyes glow red. "He Dartz. Recognize this life energy I'm using? Its from your student I almost killed." Xark suddenly appears behind Dartz. "With my original speed plus the powered up speed of your student's with dark energy added to it, our speeds are now match." Xark grabs his katana. "So lets do this fairly then." Xark gives an evil grin.

Dartz replied unconcernedly, "I might as well humor you and fulfill your final wish. By the way, As a final courtesy, I will tell you my name, Captain of Cipher Pol's 8th Division and Grand Master of Hand-to-Hand Combat, Dartz. Remember it well, as the name of the man who killed you." As Xark grabbed his Katana, Dartz matched it by using a kung-fu pose. With two fingers motioning for Xark to make the first move.

((let me clairafy, when I said Mara had to live I wasspeaking as a user, comenting on the story, not an admin enforcing a rule))

(I assumed so. Whether a character dies is usually decides by its owner.)

(so I an kill her then?! YEAH!! I will now release my joy.)

"...hand to hand? That sounds fun." Xark puts his katana away and gets in a fighting stance. "Lets go." Xark moves in and throws a punch with his left hand but it gets blocked and then he spins to Dartz right and places his hand onto the ground to lift himself up and readis to kick him up at the face.

(hehehe, just incase you haven't looked at his info well. He has clawed feet.)

Dartz sees the incoming attacks and tilts his head just enough to avoid the blow. He then quickly grabs Xark's foot with one hand and attempts to throw him into a wall! It is meant to have enough force to go through the wall, making a Xark Size Hole in the Wall! He spoke, "You should not have come here, Xark. You got away from me the last time, but instead of running away and hiding like a clever little mutant. You have defied all logic and come here to die. Far be it from me to deny you, your death wish."

"who said I was trying to run?" Xark places some of his shadow on the wall he was about to crash to and with it he just landed with force against it side ways. "That little trick I did was just to buy me sometime to learn how to use your students speed at my advantage." Xark is now standing side ways on the wall. "And it was worth it." Xark jumps from the wall with the same force as the throw Dartz did on him. "Dark Impact!" With the Dark Impact and the force of the jump, Xark aims to the floor under Dartz and makes it explode with so much force that it sends Dartz hurling into the air.

Dartz saw the attack and waited until the last second to dodge the attack. While floating in mid-air, Dartz performed a devastating Roundhouse kick at the side of Xark's head in an attempt to send Xark crashing through not just 1 wall but 10 straight walls in a row! "You think that will be enough? You are so naive, mutant-kun, that its sad really. " He continued, "Had you payed attention to his memories, you'd have seen that he may be my Lieutenant but his skills and mine are worlds apart. In fact I could stop his Ultimate Attack with his Special Sword with but one finger, In what world can you ever hope to ever defeat me? Such a place does not exist."

"In this wolrd right here!!" Dartz then notices to late that Xark had grabed Dartz leg with his clawed like feet and, with the force that Dartz hit him with, flings Dartz into the ground instead of Xark going flying. "I'm still not done!!" Xark powers his right arm. "Dark Impact!" Xark punches where Dartz was slamed into the ground and the floor around cracks with a shockwave. "I don't just have his power you fool! I added it to mine while upgradeing it to a speed that matches yours using my own dark energy!" Xark grins evily. "Those hits of yours don't even compare to what I have in store."

Dartz blocked the incoming Dark Tower with both his hands in cross-shape in front of him. When the smoke cleared, Dartz was still standing. He extended his right and closed the hand into almost a fist except that it looked as if he was going to flick his thumb. Then he flicked his thumb generating a shockwave traveling at a speed 300,000 times faster than a bullet!!! Xark noticed too late that the bullet zoomed right his right ear, missing him by milimeters. "Heh. I missed...I wonder if I will miss this time" He then unleashed thousands of these shockwaves a minute, like a mini-gun! Each of these shockwaves carry the killing power of 300,000 bullets! "This attack has enough power to kill all 15 Marine Vice-Admirals at once! Unlike your Dark-Based attacks, I possess an infinite supply! Game Over, Xark, Way over!" The immense power of the shockwaves Vaporized/Annihalated Half of Marine Headquarters, including the room they were in, in an instant! Roger escaped during the battle, otherwise he would be Annihalated by this attack as well.
