The wooden tree elemental creature thing was much faster then Vlad expected and it moved to the side on four legs. But it was too slow and Vlad's flame should be able to hit it until something grabbed Vlad's arm and pulled it away with great force nearly making Vlad lose his balance as well. That moment of disruption made the wood elemental be able to dodge the firestream. Still confused at what was pulling him, Vlad looked at his arm and noticed vines around it, they came from the ground a few meters from him.[b][color=a0410d] "You sneaky little sh-"[/color][/b] Vlad uttered before a massive hand smashed next to him. [color=a0410d][i]"If that hit me.. I would have died"[/i][/color] Vlad thought while watching the immense power the wood creature displayed by smashing huge chunks of the platform off and eating them like it's nothing. [i][color=a0410d]" It could have killed me, or just injure me enough to make me fail the test... So why didn't it hit me? Is this so that we can learn our mistakes? I have to admit, I did become a bit too arrogant, thinking it was an easy kill but this speed and power?"[/color][/i]. 


Then in a split of a second, vines started to appear all around Vlad and quickly started to creep toward him. The creature itself ran away, to the edge of the platform. Vlad knew he had to stay calm but if the creature really thought he was scared by it's intimidation, it was dead wrong. This only pissed him off even more. 

His arm was still covered in vines, Vlad looked at them like a beast about to eat it's prey, and let out a powerful yell. But it wasn't just a yell, fire came out as well quickly burning the vines around his arm. It did burn his arm as well but Vlad didn't care, it would be healed eventually. He then looked at the vines around him, they were many but with a swoop of fire they would all be gone. He concentrated two balls of fire, one in each hand and quickly crouched down, smashing his open palms on the ground, exploding the balls of concentrated fire and sending a wave of fire around him burning the vines. He then looked at the creature, knowing the path between them was open, Vlad charged at the elemental.


While running he concentrated another ball of fiery energy in his hand. He was also breathing heavier then usual since using this much concentrated energy in such a short amount of time was extremely draining. Before reaching the creature, Vlad crushed the ball by forming a fist and jumped up before smashing the ground with the fist when he landed. This resulted in an rather strong explosion and dust being sent all around Vlad, effectively covering him and making him invisible to the creature for a few seconds which were enough for his next move. While still hidden in the debris and dust that appeared, he ran to the left. After taking some steps he stopped and focusing power into his left fist. He would use the move he used on the boulder a week ago, to destroy the creature in one smash. If he missed this, he would lose so he put all his chances into this punch. 


Fire started to spiral around Vlad's arm, slowly toward his fist which was being covered in fire more and more. It was an intense fire, much lighter than usual fire, with an almost blue hue. HIS fist and arm were also shaking due to the massive energy being put into them. This all took less than 5 seconds, usually it would take much longer to channel this much power, but Sei's training made it possible for Vlad to channel his fire much more easier and quicker through his body. If he was slower, the creature would have left the place a long time ago. But hoping that it was still distracted by the explosion, Vlad ran forward through the dust and then punched with all his might. He wasn't sure if the creature was there, but trusting his memory and instincts, it should be where he was punching if it didn't move away already. [/centre]
