Basic rules, you pick the battlefield. You start.

I choose Ace.
The battlefield? A wasteland with only one tree in the middle of it all. LET'S BATTLE! Bring it.

As Ace enters the wasteland, he hears a sound. Readying himself to fight, he waits with caution.

As the phantom await his opponent, a stranger await in the tree. His senses were as sharp as his katanas. His name was Havik and he had come to slay this ghost. His blades had been coated with a special sealent, but no one was sure what its purpose was.

The ghostly figure surveyed the battlefield. He still saw nothing and was wondering if his opponent would ever show up. Suddenly, he heard a loud war-like shriek. He spun around and saw the young swordsman running toward him. There was blood painted on his face and his clothes were torn, but he was determined on ramming his blades through Ace's ghostly torso.

OoC: You bastard!

Ace, shocked by Havik jumping out the tree, feels the blow of the blades. But one of the blades had missed. Ace takes out his blade and heats things up with the power of fire. Havik feels the intense burn and sharply backs away. He then burns the tree down to a stump, leaving no more surprize attacks for Havik. Havik runs towards Ace, only to be overpowered with the power of Ace's lightning strike. Brought to his knees, Havik watchs as Ace pulls out a dagger, and then aiming for Havik's throat.

Ace brought the dagger toward Havik's neck. Unfortunately for the spectre, Havik was just getting started. As the blade of the dagger came forward, Havik launched himself to the left and rebounded of of the ground with a flying kick toward Ace. The rouge blade-wielder's boot made contact with Ace's chest, sending him flying. Havik quickly regained his balance and dashed toward the ghost, who was still airborne.

As Ace landed, he skidded across the dirt, sending dust into the air. Ace looked around through the dust as he rose to his feet. Through the cloud, with amazing speed, came two shining pieces of metal. They were Havik's katanas. One went through the ghostly warrior's shoulder; the other through his gut. A ghostly scream was heard throughout the wasteland, but only reached the ears of the two warriors.

Havik extended his arms so that they were perpendicular to his torso, and the blades went with them. Chunks of ghostly flesh and blood went flying to either side of the fighters. Pain filled Ace's body. He was full of anger and hate toward the young swordsman. However, something was wrong.

The sealent on Havik's katanas had rubbed off inside Ace's corpse-like body. It was all accorfding to Havik's plan. The solution ran through Ace's dead veins and affected him in a strange way. His heart began beating again. Blood began flowing through his body. He was coming back to life...sort of. He was not fully alive, and never would be. However, he could now bleed, feel pain even more, and be killed. (Again)

Ace couldn't beilive what was happening. He was sort of alive. He was about to jump up with joy, but then the pain went to him.

Ace, still hurt used his blade to freeze one of Havik's Katanas. He then moved to Havik and shattered the blade with one swipe of his own blade. Then he aimed for the other Katana.

Ace shot the ice beam, and nailed the katana. But before he could break it, Havik jumps and swipes at Ace. Quickly, Ace moves over to the right and Havik misses, leaving his katana wide open for another shot. Ace uses the oppurtunity not to destroy the katana, but to steal it and use it against Havik.

Havik backs away as Ace draw closer. Ace then tosses the katana towards Havik. Havik dodges the blade, but the katana shatters once striking the ground, thus sending ice shards everywhere. The handle of the katana, never turned to ice, bounces up and whacks Havik in the face. Ace then gathers up the shards and tosses them at Havik like ninja stars.

Havik is impaled through his left leg by the ice shards, and cannot move at the moment. Ace uses his fire power to melt the ice shards, leaving burnt flesh and holes in Havik's left leg. Ace then uses this momentary ceasefire to easen his pain as previously stated.

Ah c'mon!

The pain from the hole in Havik's leg was little compared to the suprise of his blades no longer existing. Anger, hate, and sorrow filled Havik's mind. He had made those blades himself when he was only a boy of six. Now they lay as frozen fragments on the ground. All the memories...all the days of combat and fighting...shattered like glass. Ace would pay for this.

Havik gathered himself up, ignoring the pain in his leg, and ran full speed at the now living ghost. He leaped at him and grabbed ahold of his skull and wraped his legs around his throat. He punched and flailed about like a maniac. Ace struggled to get him off, but Havik kept a firm hold.

After what seemed like twenty minutes, Ace eventually lost consciousness. He fell to the ground. Havik, who was still fueled by rage, grabbed the spectre's blade and used it as his own. He waited for Ace to wake up before he began his assault. This gave him time to rest, but he had other things in mind. He wanted him to fell every bit of pain heading his way.

OoC: It says it cannot harm the wielder of the blade. I weild it now.

OoC: You broke a rule.


Ace looks at Havik and gets up, sleeping off most of the pain, and now just aching. Without his blade, Ace wasn't much but a spirit now. He pulls out the dagger again and throws it towards Havik's stomach.

Havik thought the dagger was flying to his skull, so he ducked, only to be struck by the dagger near his stomach. The pain caused Havik to fall, and Havik's grip on the sword loosened. Ace took his blade, and started to chant.

Ace's sword turned into pure magic and Ace absorbed the magic. Ace was a ghost again (however he can still be killed). Ace then turned insivible. Havik got back up and looked around. He did not see Ace turn invisible so he thought Ace had fled. He walks over to the stump where the tree once was, and places his burnt leg on it. He wraps up the leg with gauze, only to be struck by a thunderbolt.

Ace became visible and looked at Havik, wracked by pain. Ace also was in pain, so he was no different. He used ice to freeze the ground on which they steped. Havik got up and looked over to Ace seeing that Ace no longer had the blade. This still could be anybody's fight.

Ace summoned up a storm, causing lightning to strike everywhere. Havik dodged the lightningbolts, but he sliped on the ice and a lightningbolt flew toward him.

OoC: Apologies...it's been awhile. I should probably look over the rules once more to refresh myself.

The bolt of lightning flew toward Havik. He struggled to move off of the ice, but could not escape quick enough. The bolt drew closer and closer, all in a split second. It made impact right next to Havik. A centimeter closer and the now-swordless warrior would have been electrocuted. The lightning shattered the ice and Havik got up and ran. Ace laughed as the storm continued.

Havik had to end the electric rain. He rushed toward the ghostly warrior as fast as he was able. Ace was shocked, but now literally...not yet at least. As Havik reached Ace, he turned around, did a backwards somersault over the ghost, and grabbed his arms. He placed his feet on Ace's back and kicked up toward the clouds. The spectre was sent flying right into the electrical storm. Bolts of lightning rained upon Ace in midair. Havik used this time to think up a new plan. Usually he would let his blades do the talking, but they were nothing but ice and water now.

Ice and water mixed with the sealent!

Havik: That's it!

The clever Havik ran to where the shattered, icy fragments of his blade lie. He soaked his hands in the water and picked up a few of the remaining ice shards.

Around this time, Ace had landed on the ground and was slowly recovering from his shocking experience. He was almost to his feet when Havik jumped on top of the ghostly warrior and rammed the shards into his body. The sealent once again worked its magic and Ace had become somewhat human again. His magic was disappearing and he was getting weaker. To make the process speed up, Havik mashed his hands into the open wounds previously inflicted.

This time, Ace would stay this way.

Ace, now angered by the pain, screamed loudly and tried to throw Havik away. A failed attempt made Ace angrier. He pushed harder. After the third time Ace pushed the warrior away and he runs at Ace again to repeat his actions. Ace dodges and fires a weak, but large fireball at Havik. The fire makes contact, and runs thru Havik's skin, leaving him with massive burn marks on him, for fire is fire and burns all the same.

Havik falls down and Ace walks up to him, picks Havik up and slugs him right in the gut. Havik falls down once again, only to be picked up again and punched reapeatedly.

Havik tries to get up, but has the wind knocked out of him. Ace kneels down to Havik.

Ace: I should thank you. You've given me life again. But you've damaged me too much for thanks. You die now!

Ace uses as much magic he can conjer to form an ice blade. Not a big one, but one large enough to impale Havik and kill him immediatly. Ace thrusts the blade down towards Havik's chest.
