As the shukusen ripped from his flesh, Tane's scream of pain and anger echoed through the air. It was bad enough he couldn't use it in this fight. Where the shukusen had been, a large cut had made it's home. Thick gooey blood, tinged gold oozed from the wound. Getting to his large feet, Tane drew his large, 2 hand sword. If only he had gotten wrist guards. He wouldn't be in this mess.
Lifting the sword, Tane pointed the tip to Alexis. "No more mister nice guy. Bring it on, disgraced filth." With that, Tane launched himself into the air. If she wanted to play dirty, then Tane would play dirty. Once again gathering light, he shot it from from his right hand again. It may be limp but he could still feel it. And that meant he could still shoot plasma blasts. Using aerokinesis, he doubled the speed of which the light was hurtling to wards the angel.

Alexis closed her eyes as she savored the scream of pain and anger. She was a being who relished in the pain and suffering of others. This was music to her ears. Opening her eyes stained red she smirked at Tane as she watched him get to his feet. She took a moment to admire his two handed sword, but focused as he lifted the deadly weapon.
"I may be disgraced filth, but you were born filth," she taunted. Watching as he launched himself in the air Alexis followed his movement with her eyes. As he shot the light at him she laughed and easily avoided it by rolling to the side, dragging Morridon with her. She let out a small hiss as the light burned the tips of her wings. Picking up Morridon she moved him to the bottom of the rock. He was still very weak and needed to rest. Stay here. she told him.
The panther nodded his head and closed his eyes. Grinning she took to the air and faced him. "You're getting slow Tane. It'll cost you." Holding out her right hand she waved it in front of her body creating a dozen clones of herself. "Only one of us is real. Are you able to tell?" all twelve clones said. With that said all of them charged for him, twin blades held out ready to strike.

"I may have been born filth, but you had a choice. Shows how intelligent you are." A growl of frustration left his throat as she surpassed his attack. She moved the panther away. He had seen what it had done when he attacked the beast. Perhaps he should use this information to his advantage.
"I've always been slow, Alexis. I'm a big beast. I'm just slower than usual" he replied to her taunting. He wouldn't deny something he knew to be true. As the clones popped up, Tane's eyes widened. Clones? But how? he thought to himself. So, he'd have to figure a way to know which was the real one and which were the clones. Taking a large breath, he again attacked with his Sonic scream. That should slow them down for a minute. He charged straight for the middle of the clones, holding his sword ready.

Alexis gritted her teeth at Tane's words. Her eyes burned with hatred and rage. They all think that. They know nothing. NOTHING! she screamed in her thoughts. "In this situation Tane I didn't have a choice. I am the way I am now because of the heartlessness of dreamers the likes of which you defend. Don't you dare assume that you know me. You don't know anything," she hissed. The words were echoed by her clones, but they weren't really clones. They were just manifested shadows that she had made. It would slow him down and she would be able to attack him easily.
Sadly she had forgotten about his sonic scream. She watched as half of her clones dissapeared blown apart by the scream and cursed mentally. Alexis grinned as he attacked the wrong person and laughed. Using her right hand she clenched her fist and watched as the remaining shadow clones dissapeared. She was behind him now and she was able to attack with his gaurd down. "You missed," she whispered in his ear. Slicing through the air she aimed for his back.

The poisoness words that Alexis spoke dripped off of Tane. "Indeed, their emotions effect us and in turn our thoughts. However you did have a choice. You simply took the easiest route out of the situation." His arm was beginning to numb. Now his plasma blasts would not work.
All of the Alexis' disappeared. He furrowed his brow for a moment before Alexis whispered in his ear. Instantly, his eyes went as big as pie dishes. The attack landed Tane a long scratch along his back muscles. The wench had found his weakness. Burning pain ran through his wings as he plummeted to earth. However hard he try to glide gently, he landed with a thud, sliding and kicking up sand. Two very small daggers flew out of the sand, each heading for one of Alexis' wings.
Slowly getting up from the small crater Tane had made, he turned to see if he had gotten Alexis. He couldn't see due to all the dust he had kicked up from his crash land. That meant she couldn't see him. He kept low, heading to ward the base of the rock where Morridon was. If he could get at him, he'd get at Alexis in a most painful way.

The words hit home causing Alexis to let out a surprised gasp. Shaking slightly she shrugged his words off. Her fury reached new levels and now all she wanted was to see Tane dead. No more games, no more playing around all she wanted was to see his blood run and stain the fields crimson.
She let out a laugh of pleasure as her attack landed causing a long scratch to appear on his back. It disabled his wings so he could no longer fly, it seemed like things were working in her advantage. Watching as he plummeted to Earth kicking up a dust of sand she sheathed her swords thinking the danger was past....how wrong she was.
Two daggers flew out of the cloud of sand and pierced her wings. Letting out a shriek of pain she followed Tane's descent back to Earth landing in a crumpled heap on the surface. Morridon. I need help. she sent to the panther. Hearing the cry for help the nightmare panther shakily got to his feet and slowly scaled the rock. He was one with this landscape. A nightmare bound to Alexis since his creation. As he reached the top he saw Tane making his way toward him.
Growling he crouched low to the ground, tail swinging back and forth ready to kill him at any second. Alexis the demonika is coming. Understanding the message she pushed herself to her feet and slowly made her way over, following Morridon's guidance.

The scream echoed to Tane's ears. He really didn't like hurting living things, though it had to be done. Tane was in a lot of pain at the moment, losing blood slowly. He'd have to end this battle quickly if he was to win.
He looked up to Morridon looking down at him, ready to pounce. Tane paused for a moment, thinking. With a push, he sent himself flying at the beast, sword in hand. "This battle ends now" he mumbled as he flew through the air.
Whipping out 4 throwing stars, he flicked them at the cat with his tail, sending th black objects plummeting down to wards the cat. A bit of air and they zoomed, almost blurred to wards the ground.

Morridon, still weak from the direct impact of the light was slow to move. The throwing stars couldn't be avoided so he stood his ground and yowled in pain as they were embedded deep within his flesh. Alexis screamed as well as four cuts opened on her body in various places oozing blood. She could no longer stay on her feet and she fell to the ground.
Her eyes dimmed a bit at the pain she felt from both her wounds and Morridon's. But she wasn't one to give up a fight. Using her hand she crawled over to her panther and yanked the throwing stars out of his skin. Using her power over air she blew the sand away giving her a clear vison of Tane. "So you've found my weakness. Bravo. You've just sped up the ending of your life."
Pushing herself to her feet she unsheathed her blades and and used them as crutches to support her weight. Freeing one hand she took out her shukusen and like before she cloaked it in shadows and threw it at him. "Die," she whispered watching as it sped for his chest.

Direct hit. Tane felt no joy in having to cause her or Morridon pain. But Tane didn't want to die. In this word, it is kill or be killed. He watched as Alexis crawled over to the panther. Tane almost felt pity for her as she was degraded to crawling across the sand. But then, she had chosen to take him on and this is what she got for doing so.
Raising his left hand to block the sand from his eyes, he was surprised that Alexis still held her powerful voice. "You are worthy to admire, Alexis. It is a pity that I had to hurt you so." Her swords were strong to hold her weight. It was indeed a shock that the tips did not break. Again the fan came, hidden by shadow. Tane tried desperately to see, shifting this way and that. Again, he screamed sonic vibrations at the thing. It didn't work.
With a sickening crunch, it embedded itself into Tane's left shoulder. Now his arm was limp. His tail snaked around, pulling out 8 more stars. Twirling each around his tail's tip, he sent them flying to wards the duo in random directions. Hanging his head, Tane spat blood onto the sand, watching it shrivel. The blood of a demon kind.

Alexis nodded her head at Tane's appraisal. "You deserve the same Tane. But I feel no pity in hurting you." As soon as the fan made a direct hit she yanked it from his shoulder once again catching it. Using the wind to form a barrier she flung the stars away and watched as they hit the floor with small metallic clangs.
Falling to the ground she sheathed her swords and summoned her shadow web. As soon as it was formed she looked at Tane and smirked. "I do not wish to die at the moment, but like I told another Sandman this fight is far from over." Since she was bleeding heavily all she had to do was hold one of her wounds over the web and watched as the web spun crazily before it consumed her and Morridon. As it hit the sand it spread out cloaking everything in darkness for a split second before receding. The web was engraved into the rock face, but it was slowly dissintegrating. This is far from over.

Again, the weapon was yanked from his body. Why couldn't she just leave it there? Tane collapsed upon the ground, pain over-whelming him. He had the sudden urge to end it.
Other sandman? What other sandman? he thought. As she spun out of the place on the web, Tane watched her go. Sighing, he lay back in the sand, waiting for his dreamer to wake. Perhaps it didn't hurt him as much as it hurt Tane. Slowly, little balls of light began to leave Tane's body, signifying that he was awaking.
