Bending Arena

[Glitch]

Caleb's hair blows back as the airball goes from one side of the arena to the other, heading for Jahn.

Jahn keeps his eyes on Atraiu as he shifts the ground under his feet like water and without lifting a leg he moves slightly to the left effortlessly dodging the attack. As the airball passes by, Jahn raises his open hands pulling five torso sized boulders from the earth. When Jahn closes his fists the boulders instantly shrink to the size of golfballs. The five rocks, now smooth as marble, begin to orbit around Jahn. Jahns eyes haven't left Atraiu and his stance hasn't altered. Jahn focuses his gaze and, shifting the earth under him once again, Jahn charges directly at Atraiu.

[AfikoAir]

Atraiu stands light on his feet ready to move. Atraiu stands not moving and takes the hit. Has he falls he uses air to boost him high in the air to get a birds eye view. Atraiu forms an airball around him. He goes and circles Jahn, mocking him.

Jahn moves into the center on the arena waiting, watching Atraiu's movements memorizing the patterns like the grain of a stone. With a flick of his wrist Jahn sends one of the small stone orbs at Atraiu allowing it to be caught in the air current. Almost instantly Jahn explodes the stone into thousands of tiny jagged pieces that tear into Atraiu's flesh as they whirl around the airball at tremendous speed. The airball has become a razor blade death trap.

[AfikoAir]

As the rocks cut Atraiu's flesh he instantly stops the air ball. Atraiu yells in pain. Atraiu takes a deep breath. He widens his stance. He concentrates "here it goes" Atraiu runs in a circle and starts to make a tornado. Atraiu stands in front of the tornado splitting it making a wall of tornadoes. As he realizes he is making another death trap he stops the tornadoes and they vanish. Atraiu is frozen in fear he might loose. Atraiu runs and sends a full body air blast at Jahn (like Aang did to Zuko in cross roads of destiny).

Jahn, having prepared for the tornados is taken off guard by the singular blast of air. With no time to prepare Jahn cannot brace for impact and as he is struck the air is smashed from his lungs. Four golfball sized rocks clack loudly on the stone floor of the now silent arena and when Jahns body impacts the stone there is no satisfying thud, only a whoosh of dust that obscures Jahns half of the arena. Nobody can see what bas become of the lanky earth bender.

[AfikoAir]

Atraiu laughs in satisfaction but reminds himself to not be cocky. He is going to use the dust to his advantage. He then uses air-bending on the ground to cause dust to come up and covers the entire arena. Atraiu jumps high in the air above the giant dust cloud. He looks for movement but can see any movement. He then gently comes down and swooshes the dust from the arena. To be shocked at what he sees.

[curvedlines]

There is nothing. The dust settles as Atraiu gently lands on the arena surface. The suspense is palpable as the crowds gasps of confusion quiet to a dull roar. A small round stone skips and rolls toward Atraiu and stops inches from his foot.

[AfikoAir]

Atraiu jumped back and studies what flew towards him. He picks up the stone and throws it from where it came from.

[curvedlines]

For a moment the stone under Atraiu's feet becomes liquid as Jahns hand shoots up out of the ground grabbing at Atraiu's right ankle. The grip tightens and Atraiu is pulled into the liquid ground. The stone hardens around Atraiu's waist and Jahn rises out of the ground in front of him. Looking down Jahn enjoys victory... momentarily.
