[IC] Mana-script Academy for the gifted (Magical School RP)

"I knew there are rules to this whole rank thing!" He exclaimed. " Oh and sorry." He apologized about the book thing. "Seriously though, if you have any books on elemental magic above intermediate, could I borrow them later?"

[TheHangedMan]

Meruin sighed. "Well, if that is how it is. I do wonder about how I got a higher rank than Tyler though."

She looked at the challenger in question. "Would you mind waiting in the gym for about an hour? I'll need to prepare." She barely had a few minutes to prepare during her last fight with Sol, Mutt and Tyler, so this time, she wanted to bring more than just her magic books, which were versatile, but not very powerful.

[Eklispe]

Sol grinned inwardly, Meruin given a chance to prepare was like giving a Marine a chance to look through the national armory. "Part of the intial ranking system was grades so, not to be rude, but obviously Meruin would score higher in this regard." Sol stated simply. "Also the challenger has to accept the challenged's terms so off to the gym we go," Sol finished then began to walk over.

[Flood]

" Ok." Tyler said hesitantly as he knew that without preparation she had nearly killed them. With preparation he may be in a little over his head. He walked with Sol to the gym.

[TheHangedMan]

Meruin nodded as they went off and returned to her room. She looked at her Grimoire longingly. "Perhaps this is what I need to do in order for it to progress," she mumbled to herself. Fighting was not her thing, but her old master always stressed that (her) magic must be able to accomplish anything. She sighed and looked at all the books lined up on her shelf. She picked out a few and began taking out vials with glowing liquids inside them.

She wondered what else she would need. She hesitantly looked at her staff, but decided against it. She would bring that out once she decided she was actually serious about becoming a fighter. After preparing all of her items, she headed to the gym, where Sol and Tyler were waiting.

She'd chosen the gym because it was an area that she'd already inscribed with one of her Greater Rituals. If things went bad, this would be the first time she could use it.

[Flood]

"Glad to see you made it." Tyler said. He pulled out a water battle and drank some water. He splashed some on himself as well. "Call the match Sol, if you please."

[Eklispe]

"Activate your gauntlets and proceed when ready" Sol called out, eager to see how the battle would unfold

[notdeadyet]

Mutt, had been sorta left in his cloud of dust, not quite as badass as he had hope to apear. He stepped down from the mound still in wolf form and began prodding around with his nose. Somehow, he ended up bumping literally hea first into Liz.

"Oops! My apologies!" He said, totaly forgetting that few people expect wolves to talk.

[Dash375]

Liz looked at the wolf and instantly jumped away a bit "You can talk?" She asked then recognised the voice "Are you the person who took the sour sweets from me before?" The girls asked keeping her distance.

[TheHangedMan]

Meruin nodded and fiddled around with her gauntlet before finally managing to activate it. She whispered a spell and about a dozen different colored books floated behind her. From her breast pocket, Meruin pulled a golden bookmark that was covered in golden flame.

Calm down, she told herself, taking steady breathes, You can do this. It's just a duel. Master Reina and Lady Chase did this all the time. IT will be fine.

[Flood]

Tyler activated his gauntlet and closed his eyes for a moment. He then opened them as armor of water formed around him. He appeared to be floating slightly above the ground but really he was just standing on a thin layer of water. The water then began moving as he skated towards Meruin to begin the attack. Spikes of water formed on his fists as he went for a frontal assault. He swung and hoped to connect.

[notdeadyet]

"Why yes actually!" A short chuckle later, and Mutt transformed back into his human state. He was wearing his good ol reliable stretchy gym shorts, but otherwise, his clothes were tarnished by the transformation. He didnt seem much to mind being mostly nude. He stretched his limbs into a comfortable yawn, and then offered his right hand forward. "Hi im Mutt! Its great to see you again. Haha last time those sweets sure had me going!"

His hair was a sloppy mess on his head, he was covered in dirt and bits of broken leaves, and he smelt like wet dog... Every time he runs into you, its like he is trying to make a good impression. Though, at least he wasnt dragging his tounge on the floor this time. The student seemed quite calm now, an his powerfull lungs slowly raised and lowered his muscular chest. Getting a good look at him now would surely boast the most physically fit student for miles in any direction. Despite these qualities, he didnt seem to be a jock, but just a friendly guy!

[The ghost in black]

Lisana woke up with a start then winced as the pain from her battle earlier hit her "man i need to take it easier" she said as she slowly rolled out of bed and looked around the room first searching for any suspicious objects then started getting accustom to the layout. After she did this she picked up her bag and pulled out a length of sharp steel wire and made almost a web of wire around her door, window, and even the vent just to keep others out but allow her to slip between with relative ease, then she started making other security measures which most were only to stun, paralyze, or just annoy while others were for doing real damage. while she did this she started hanging her other weapons and tools in her closet and sealed it with a spell which would cause the wires on the door to wrap around the intruder's hand cutting the skin and holding them there, "There I think that's enough security" lisana said as she walked out her door and started walking she hoped towards the exit of the building.

[Dash375]

Liz looked at him in almost disgust and sighed "I guess if you are using your transformation so lightly I can use mine." She took her water form and sent a wave over Mutt to help clean him off "Name is Liz." The girl sighed and resumed her solid form and took his hand before looking towards the gym "Someone over there is using water magic, lets go" She started walking towards it pulling Mutt behind her.

[notdeadyet]

"OH YOU CAN TRANSFORM?!?! ARE YOU A WEREWOLF TOO? YOU CERTAINLY DONT SMEL----" the rest of his scentence was drowned out by gurgles, and before he could cough up the water and catch his breath, Mutt found himself being tugged towards the Gym. "Oh... Uhmmm okay i guess..." He said, not quite sure what was going on or what just happened. He wasnt against bathing, but nobody had bathed him since he was a pup, and that was just wierd!

[TheHangedMan]

Meruin could sense tha magic under his feet. That granted him superior mobility, but she'd thought that she found Tylers weakness already. If water was his sword, then her spear would be . . .

"lónchi astrapí," she said. A fairly basic spell that literally translated to 'lightning spear'. Thin arcs of electricity snaked towards Tyler, heading towrds the closest conducter they could find; his water.

[Flood]

Tyler did the most logical thing he could do in this situation with no time to think. He stopped the magic holding the water to his body and stopped his body and let momentum fling the water onto Meruin. He then pulled some earth from the ground and made a weaker armor out of that. He then began running forwards as he pulled a scythe from the ground. The scythe was made of pure earth. He hadn't quite mastered elemental manipulation enough to produce metal yet.

[TheHangedMan]

Meruin clicked her tongue in annoyance. The lightning blots just crashed into the water hurled towards her and negated them. Upon seeing Tyler charging at her, her eyes widened and shot up into the sky with a burst of magic.

[Flood]

Tyler frowned and stopped. He stomped on Tue ground and released a barrage of earth bullets from the ground at her.

[Dash375]

Liz continued to drag Mutt behind her till they arrived at the gym and tackled Sol from behind letting go off Mutt's hand "Heeey, why is Meruin fighting now?" She asked and started to intently watch the fight.
