Vingt-cinquième Grimoire THE TOURNAMENT

[wizardoftheweek]

-It was a large enough field for them, Patchouli thought. And it was a familiar enough match-up. How many times had she and Marisa met in a duel over the years? More than any other individual in her life, she imagined. Which was saying a lot for a youkai her age. Still, with all that had happened between them recently... she had to wonder of them

THE MATCH

[wizardoftheweek]

[lasersallover]

[She wobbled around on her broom a bit. In her mind, at least, she had no pangs of guilt about accidentally hurting Patchouli. She definitely likes her but if she can't dodge, isn't that her fault? Definitely the best kind of logic.]

You want to go by normal spell card rules or what?

[wizardoftheweek]

If you wish. I'll even go further traditional and not repeat a single card.

[lasersallover]

Whoa, hey! That'll give me a big disadvantage, you know!

[wizardoftheweek]

... Fine. Whatever you want. Let's just begin, shall we?

[lasersallover]

Then let me start it off with a bang, Patchouli!

[whipping out that octagonal shaped YOU KNOW WHAT]

[wizardoftheweek]

-Like that, hmm? Patchouli jets back so fast she practically moonwalks on the air, throwing up a card to counter the blast.-

[lasersallover]

Love Sign: Master Spark!

[Barely moments after the huge magic circle appeared in front of the hakkero, what could only be called a battleship class laser spewed from it, multiple different colors ringing the beam.]

[wizardoftheweek]

Metal & Moon Sign: Sunshine Reflector!

-The card activates, throwing up a shield. As it glows, the giant beam is bounced right back at Marisa, though slightly diminished.-

[lasersallover]

Geh!

[taking to the skies on her broom to get out of the way]

[wizardoftheweek]

-She immediately readies another card, also taking to the sky in order to pursue her target.-

[lasersallover]

[In her frantic retreat, she begins dropping translucent blades of light that fall for a couple of feet before beginning to accelerate toward their target.]

[wizardoftheweek]

-A small barrier goes up, forcing her to cancel out the card, but she returns fire with several volleys of danmaku, fire and earth elementals.-

[lasersallover]

[NOW THIS

IS PODRACING

Or she's just weaving a complicated pattern to just barely squish through]

Why do you keep using shields? This is how you do danmaku!

[wizardoftheweek]

When facing you, I've little choice but use these tactics.

-She forces more arrays, this time of water and wood.-

[lasersallover]

I feel like I've been complimented!

[And she was stuck dodging even more. She had an idea she wanted to try but she definitely couldn't do it under the relentless pressure that was already there. She had to think of something to clear it out.]
