"How many more stabs can Frostburn take?" Syric asked the Changeling. Pagoma didn't know the answer, but it seemed like Syric was willing to be patient enough to find out. The Changeling was quickly shedding energy while the Celestial was hoarding his own. Syric lashed out a few more stabs and slashes with his knives, all of which Pagoma was feeling to tired to defend against. More blood was added to the dribbles down his body and the ground underneath him. But Pagoma was stubborn and determined to a fault. He wouldn't give in until his body forced him to (if it forced him to). As Syric charged towards Pagoma again to initiate a close quarters combat with his knives, Pagoma saw him coming and once more launched the heel of his boot towards Syric's face. As beaten and bruised as the Changeling warrior felt, he was enjoying seeing Syric's face become less and less recognizable. Pagoma charged up his energy, hoping to do something dramatic enough to keep Syric at a distance, if even for a moment, so that Pagoma could breathe. Ironically, the energy that Pagoma was about to expunge was only going to make things worse for him. After gathering energy between his palms for a moment, Pagoma sent a beam of energy high into the air. Waiting to confirm Syric's exact position before sending it straight down, Pagoma launched the beam of energy towards Syric's head from a birds eye view.

Pagoma has Taken: 67.2% + (WA (x13), Sneak Attack (DR 2), Sneak Attack (DR 2.5), Flame Shield (DR 3)) 9.9% = 79.1% Damage Taken (15,378 More Vitality Damaged)

Frostburn had become predictable.
Syric’s daggers continued to do the job of ripping the Changeling to pieces, but every single time that he had tried to close the distance, he was countered with a kick to the nose. Not once, not twice, but now 3 times. He did not need his precognition to know what was coming this time around. As the hunter raised his heel once again, he blasted him with a flow of ice, looking to encase him once again, but more importantly not have his nose busted up even more.
That was when Frostburn had begun to gather energy of his own. Syric’s eyes narrowed as he traced the energy, but then it was launched up into the air. Quickly he realized what was going on and began to charge his own attack. Flying backwards as the beam almost collided, before it came right towards him. Sending a surge of his reserved energy into the blast, suddenly he formed his own attack in his hands, ”BIG TREE CANNON!!!”
It was an attack that Syric rarely used. It was by far his most inefficient attack, but he had it for one reason. When people fired beams at him, they normally were not ready for such a power consuming technique to simply overwhelm their attack.
Pushing his energy, the empowered charged attack crashed into the much weaker ki efficient attack of the Changeling. Overwhelming the blast wouldn’t take much at this point. It was on the tired hunter to figure out how he was going to handle this. Did he have enough ki to overwhelm Syric’s attack or was he simply going to have to figure out a way to dodge or block the attack and hope his body would hold out? Considering the situation doing either of the defensive options would be much harder than normal.
Syric’s breath began to hinder. Deep breaths after the struggle of beams resolved itself. He did not have time though to think about how he was going to keep this pace. Just as Frostburn had ignored his own exhaustion, the thief had to do the same.
”You are a better fight, than I gave you credit for Frostburn.”
Blasting at full speed towards his target, he looked to stab right into the side, hoping to pierce enough to hinder his kidneys with this stabbing motion. More importantly though he hoped his blade would do its job and steal some of the remains of Frostburn’s power. He was going to need it to start working if he was going to keep this up for much longer.
He kept his pursuit to stay close to the Changeling as he stabbed at him once more with his left-handed dagger and then sliced at his face with the right one.
”Your body ready to give up yet?”

Syric's knives were taking their toll on the Changeling. He was almost out of energy. The sand and debris kicked up from their fight stung his eyes and his tongue cracked with dryness. What little precious energy Pagoma had left, he nearly entirely expunged on one last energy beam, only for Syric to display his powers he still had in reserves. Pagoma hadn't saved enough for a long fight. He came out guns a'blazing and hoped to end Syric's life early into the battle. But the Celestial had other plans. Now, even Pagoma's attempt at countering Syric's weapon attacks left him frozen solid and struggling to break free. Pagoma's energy beam rained down from the sky as Syric cried out three words and met it with a beam of energy of his own. One that was much larger, more powerful, and more dangerous than Pagoma's. The Changeling could have done more to defend himself under normal circumstances, but considering the small amount of strength he had left, he knew his only hope of survival was to attempt to protect himself as best as possible. As Syric's beam overcame his and headed back towards the Changeling, Pagoma broke off his own energy beam and used most of his finite energy, along with the dwindling milliseconds, to brace for impact. He crossed his arms over himself in an "X" pattern, while crouching down on one knee. "Come on, come on," Pagoma said to himself, struggling to stay conscious as the beam of energy overcame him. He was reminded of being a child and trying to stay up late at night, despite his body giving in. "Is this my life flashing before my eyes?" Pagoma was speaking to himself in an inner dialogue but heard the words as if he were speaking out loud. As Syric's beam did its worst, Pagoma struggled to stand back up, his leg shaking underneath him as he did. He wouldn't have any time to relax though, Syric's next attack was already on its way. Pagoma saw Syric with one of his daggers plunging towards him, just in time to dodge out of the way. But when Syric came with his blades towards Pagoma for a second and third time, the Changeling didn't have it in him to avoid the blades again. "Your body ready to give up yet?" Syric asked. Pagoma stared silently, breathing heavy, one of his eyes swollen nearly shut. But Syric wasn't without blemish either, and that gave Pagoma hope. "Never," Pagoma let out. Even the strain it took to utter a single word was precious energy gone. Pagoma briefly closed his eyes, giving in to the pain for just a moment. He pushed out any reserves of power he had left in him, unable to even think about his next move other than simply trying to stay on the defense. Pagoma knew that wasn't a good place to be. He needed something just short of a miracle to change the outcome of the fight from a loss to a victory.

Also in case it got missed in OOC Battle Spam the Immobilize Roll for Ice Blast connected so Pagoma is Immobilized.
All he could do now was power up. The Changeling was trying everything he could to summon forth the power left in his body to combat the Celestial, but it had left him vulnerable. Not just because his energy was nearly completely gone, but because his body was in shambles after the Big Tree Cannon overtook his beam. Syric knew the fight was nearly over now. The ice from the defensive technique had stayed flowing over the hunter leaving him even more exposed. The thief’s eyes lit up even more. It was time to properly finish this fight. To put this fool down and go grab a pint… that was if the tavern was still standing; he had not taken the time to check at this point.
”Ice..” He said before opening his mouth releasing first a blast of pure fight, ”Plus Fire He said between blasts before releasing a pure energy blast towards his target, ”Makes FROSTBURN!”
He repeated his earlier taunt now, still finding it funny even though it was much more annoying than anything else. A thrust from his arm sent a blast of chilled air towards Frostburn now. The Kiaiho combined with his survival locked in the Ice Temple had caused the attack to be even more dangerous and yet basic under his control. It was the Syric method. Simple and basic efficient techniques that were meant to drain his opponent until he was unconscious and then leave him wounded and scarred with the remembrance of just how great the Celestial was.
Knowing his next technique had failed so greatly earlier in the fight, he wanted to try it one more time, to limit what the hunter could do. Maybe it would be reflected back at him or maybe it would finally trap him, but the electrical net he released had a simple target in mind, trap the Changeling and make him even more defenseless. Powerless, defenseless and helpless; it was exactly how Syric liked his victims being.
He faded away after releasing the net, moving behind his target as he jammed the energy stealing dagger up towards the kidney area of Frostburn, looking to put him down once and for all. Even if it did not land, he was more than willing to stay close range at this point. He was going to do everything in his power to make this a melee fight until Frostburn was simply out of power to fight back with.

Pagoma wasn't sure if he had knocked some screws loose from Syric. Not only was he repeating himself with his coined nickname for Pagoma (Frostburn), but he was acting kind of... strange. The Changeling wondered if perhaps the Celestial was suffering signs of a concussion. Whether Pagoma's suspicions were right or not, he found a bit of hope in the thought. Pagoma fought the pain and the lack of energy as much as he could but he couldn't deny that his body was on its last limb, quickly failing. But just as he was wondering how he could go on, he felt a sudden rush of adrenaline and endorphins. Pagoma knew that sometimes this would happen in a Changeling's body when they were about to die, as a last means of survival. Pagoma had never experienced the sensation before, but couldn't deny he felt its benefits right away. Before he'd hardly even realized it he had done it, Pagoma had snuck out of the way of Syric's flames and energy attack that were both fired from his mouth. Perhaps trying to be clever or ironic because of his nickname for Pagoma, Syric followed up the fiery string of attacks with an icy one, sending a cold wave of air for the Changeling. Pagoma let out a loud cry that shook the force of Syric's invisible blast, causing it to harmlessly disperse around the Changeling's perimeter. Perhaps Syric had sensed the life-saving adrenaline suddenly pumping through Pagoma's body, or perhaps he was just ready for the dozenth time to be done with the fight, but either way the Celestial wasn't through attacking. A sort of energy generated web came flying out of Syric's presence towards Pagoma. Holding up his right hand's ring finger, with a bright flash of Pagoma's ring the attack was sent flying away from the Changeling and back towards Syric. Syric shifted behind Pagoma and sent a dagger flying into his back. Pagoma felt the sharp claw of the undefended blade, cutting through the flesh of his lower back. Pagoma stepped forward to distance himself from Syric, however briefly. In a show of true barbarity, Syric continued his assault on the Changeling, trying once more to enter into a quick bout of trading physical attacks at a heightened rate of speed. Pagoma had avoided this strategy of Syric's thus far, but Pagoma figured it was time to show Syric just what his own strength was capable of. Meeting Syric head-on within arms reach, Pagoma sent a powerfully charged punch headed towards Syric's stomach. "I feel like a cheese grater," Pagoma admitted as the physical assault between the two warriors continued. He wasn't normally one to admit weakness to an opponent, but there was no denying that Pagoma's body was covered with holes ranging from minor cuts to actively bleeding, gaping wounds.

As was expected that stupid ring bounced his net back at him. Syric sighed, what a lame tactic that was being used, but hell maybe he could see how it felt. Yeah, he was kind of crazy and at this point a little punch drunk on the battle.
The net entrapping him made him ignore any last moment rage that Frostburn. It was to his surprise though that the hunter accepted his challenge to close range combat. He had avoided it up to this point with a kick to the face of the Celestial, but now he seemed eager.
They exchanged what was basically a bunch of misses to start, before energy formed in the hand of the Changeling. Syric turned his body to the side, letting the empowered punch catch air. It was hard to connect with attacks like that in this situation, clearly his opponent would have to chain things like this together if he was going to gain the advantage over Syric here.
The shift to the side, opened up a chance to retaliate which Syric was happy to do. His tail quickly smacked the arm at the elbow before he sent a quick kick towards the back of the hunter’s knee.
He tucked his daggers back for a moment, ”No weapons then?” He said seeing that his foe had decided to strike with his fist and not the sword or axe tail that he had. Maybe he was not trained to utilize his weapons in this situation, or maybe he was scared, but either way Syric wanted to play this new game.
Quickly he struck out with two jabs to the face of Frostburn before throwing a quick right hand towards the cheek and then a quick poking kick towards the other knee of his target.
”Let me think.” He said before quickly poking his knuckles into the rib area of the changeling before stomping down towards his foot, ”Where have I not hit you at yet? His tail snapped around looking to hit the hip quickly of the Changeling and then he threw one last strike, looking to poke a finger into the ear canal of his enemy.
This was a situation that demanded quick strikes for efficiency and Syric was happy to go that route. Hopefully he could find all the parts of Frostburn that he had not hurt up to this point and cause him pain in those areas too. The sadistic side of the wanted Celestial was now coming out. It was a matter of if the Changeling could handle it or not.

"No weapons then?" Syric asked the Changeling as he tucked away his daggers. Pagoma certainly wasn't going to say "no" to having a break from Syric's slashes and stabs. Syric threw a couple of jabs towards Pagoma's face that whiffed through the air as Pagoma ducked and dipped his head around Syric's fists. But Syric threw a few more attacks in the Changeling's direction which found their mark; the last two being a strike with his tail and a strike on the side of his head. "Are you part Saiyan or something?" Pagoma asked as he felt the force of Syric's tail whack against his side. Between that and a finger almost directly in his ear, Pagoma was ready to hit Syric with an attack that would actually hurt. In the spirit of keeping weapons out of it, Pagoma reared back and launched two powerful punches at the Celestial, one towards each of his shoulders. Pagoma then threw a mighty kick towards Syric with his right leg, going upwards between his legs. The Changeling was not above taking the cheap shot if it presented itself. Pagoma arched his body over putting his weight on his right leg and continued his flurry of attacks by aiming a kick with his left leg towards Syric's head. Following through with his leg, Pagoma did a sort of half spin to correct himself from having his back turned to Syric. As he did, he turned his tail on its side so that the non-bladed side of his tail flew straight for Syric's head. As much as Pagoma would have rather taken Syric's head off clean, turning the blade sideways took up much more space, thus making it that much harder for the Celestial to duck beneath Pagoma's tail.

Frostburn had managed to freely dodge a few of the quick strikes thrown by Syric, but still a few of them found a home on the vulnerable Changeling. The thief had wished he would have enchanted his gloves with the energy stealing that his dagger had, but at last he had not. Maybe it would have made them more of a threat, but for the dying hunter any strike could end up being his last at this point.
After the strikes, Frostburn asked if he was part Saiyan. Syric laughed a little, his mind focused on the fight while he talked, ”All badass thief here!” He turn his body watching both of the first two power strikes catch nothing but air as his shoulders seemed to be the target here.
That was when the Changeling got dirty and brought his leg up towards the groin of Syric. Quickly he brought his knees together to block the blow and check the kick before it could land on its target. All of his attacks were power attacks at this point. He was desperate to strike one blow and stun Syric out of this close combat situation. Maybe it was a good strategy, but the Celestial saw it as desperate times for his attacker.
Ducking down just as Pagoma had done moments earlier, avoiding the power kick to his head before the tail whipped around at him. It was not the bladed side though this time. It was just the bulky tail of the Changeling that was coming at him. He ducked under it, countering suddenly with two quick punches to the tail as it whipped past his head.
”I thought I’d knock you out by blood loss, but I guess this time it will be just pain from these hands!” He lashed out quickly with two jabs towards the face of the hunter. The bloodied nose and cheek would be good enough targets.
At this point they were both hurting and it was a battle of determination to see who would survive. The only difference really was that Syric had used a moment to pop one of the sacred beans and Pagoma had not gotten that chance. It was the relentless assault from the Celestial that kept him in control at this point. He had to keep that up.
He would do just that, launching two more rapid fire strikes, the first to the body and the second a downwards punch to the thigh of Frostburn. Eventually his body would fail him, but he knew at this point the hunters body would fail him first.

For someone who had used his daggers so much in the battle, Pagoma was surprised that Syric had seemingly put them away. Perhaps it was because he could move faster without them and Pagoma was keeping him on his toes. But that said, Syric was able to somehow either dodge or block all five of Syric's various forms of physical attacks. "I thought I’d knock you out by blood loss, but I guess this time it will be just pain from these hands!” Syric told Pagoma. "Whatever you say, Monkey," Pagoma got his answer from Syric that he wasn't part Saiyan, but Pagoma wasn't convinced. He'd never seen a fuzzy tail like Syric's on a Celestial before, and the creature had much more of a Saiyan warrior look than he did that of something angelic. Syric was able to land two quick punches on Pagoma's tail but otherwise was likewise unable to land a hit on Pagoma. The Changeling then launched a powerful kick towards Syric's chest, trying to land it in the side of his rib cage. Keeping his momentum going, Pagoma would once more try to swing the blunt side of his axe towards Syric's head. From there, Pagoma briefly dissappeared from site, reappearing behind Syric where he attempted to grab his tail. "Looks like monkey fur to me," Pagoma would say as he examined the Celestial more closely. Then, assuming his grab was successful, Pagoma would throw Syric some distance away to put some space between them. Either chasing after Syric's flung body, or just closing the gap (depending on the success of Pagoma's last attack), Pagoma shot two quick punches towards Syric's abdomen. Following it up in the same targeted position, the Changeling shot a knee up towards Syric's stomach.

”I’m far to cute to be a Saiyan.” Syric said, smiling in the middle of the grapple to show his pearly whites.
He wasn’t certain how the hunter had dodged his attacks as it happened without description, but it was certainly something he wasn’t ready for. That combined with his talking caused him to be somewhat distracted, but as the kick came, he vanished for a moment dodging away from the attack before popping in next to Frostburn once again. This time the tail of the Changeling came swooping in, but he pulled his cross guard up once again to block the tail. He wanted to punch at it like he did before, but this time around the hunter vanished right away. It was a sign of a different tactic, but also it removed the chance for Syric to lash out as he had desired.
Syric closed his eyes, he needed to rely one more time on his instinct and as the attempt to grab him came he shifted sliding away from the attempted throw and quickly gathering himself just in time to take two quick punches to his body. As the knee came up, he used another burst of speed to pop in behind the Changeling in order to avoid the strike.
Quickly, he lashed out with two punches towards the kidneys of his opponent, ”My tail is certainly cuter than yours.”
As he flew near Frostburn, he tapped one foot down towards the tail before throwing a quick punch in unison to his target. Syric was growing in confidence, knowing how he was going to end this battle now, he just had to wait for the right opening to do so.
”Smells better too.”
Shifting to the side now he jabbed first towards the underarm of the Changeling and then as he kept moving the shoulder, ”I’ll promise to not kill you, if you just give up already and pass out.”

"I'm too cute to be a Saiyan,” weren't exactly words that Pagoma was expecting to hear from Syric, but did nonetheless. "My tail is certainly cuter than yours."Syric sent two quick punches towards Pagoma who turned towards his opponent and slipped to the side, out of harm's way. Syric made a comment about his tail smelling nice, but Pagoma was too busy avoiding another punch and a foot towards a tail, using some fancy maneuvering to avoid Syric's strikes. Syric came towards Pagoma once more with a couple of punches under one arm. Pagoma shoved each of Syric's arms out of the way, using careless technique that reflected his current mental and physical state. "This is exhausting," Pagoma said to his opponent. Pagoma was running out of energy and the exchanges of quick punches and kicks with Syric was wasting time. Pagoma had to do something to pace himself without being too weak to defend himself. Compromising, despite his preferences, Pagoma slipped back down into his Third Form, losing a good chunk of his power but also helping to conserve some ki. That was when Syric made an interesting offer. ”I’ll promise to not kill you, if you just give up already and pass out," Syric said. Pagoma would have been foolish not to at least consider it. Did he really want to die on PTO Business? After a bounty for some Zeni he didn't even need that badly? His tired and aching body twitched as he struggled to look straight at Syric, reading the situation. "Perhaps it is a guise to get me to lower my defenses," the Changeling wondered. He was talking to himself but didn't care if Syric heard. "It is a nice offer," Pagoma answered. His breaths were labored and speaking was a challenge. "But I'm afraid I must decline."Pagoma threw a punch with his right hand followed by a hook with his left, trying to strike Syric in his upper body. "My pride," Pagoma continued. "I guess it really will be the death of me."The Changeling threw a knee up towards Syric's stomach before doing a roundhouse kick towards the center of his chest. Pagoma knew he was a fool to decline Syric. It was likely accepting his death and the Changeling knew it. But he was determined to prove himself. He was tired of losing to opponents more skilled than him because of his youth, and their experience on the battle field. Pagoma had studied, learned new strategies, even made a special trip to Toffit to find the sword for cutting down Celestials. Why was it still not enough? Were the odds always stacked against him and there no point in trying? Pagoma's rage burned on as he pondered how to get an upper hand on Syric before death.

Pagoma has Taken: 96.1 + DR 2.5 Pinpoint Strike, 6 QA’s (2.2%) = 98.3% (+3,573 Vitality Damage)
Syric has Taken: 61.7% + DR 1.5 Banku, 2 Blocked SA’s, 4 Full SA’s (2.9%) = 64.6% Damage Taken (2,153 Vitality Damage)
Frostburn was certainly good at dodging. Ever since they had gotten into this high-speed combat situation, he had seemingly found a way to easily dodge almost all of Syric’s quick strikes. One attack sequence after another it became clear that the Changeling was adapt at running away if nothing else.
Having had another attack sequence easily dodged and his generous offer ignored, he decided it was time to end this charade of a battle.
He held his arms out after Frostburn dodged once again and decided not to defend himself. Hard strike after hard strike crashed into his body, causing him to take the full brunt of the powered down hunter once again. With each strike he took though he smiled, an arrogant grin that would probably only make the next attack hurt that much more.
The trickster was up to something though. With each powerful strike attempt the Changeling launched at Syric a bit of energy invisible energy was released. The Celestial’s favored attack was his invisible freezing blast of power. This was a form of that attack, spread out to bits of energy, a combination he was sure would end this battle this time around.
As he fell back, the pain of the strikes echoing over his body he spoke clearly, ”Goodnight.”
One after another invisible beams of energy that he had released launched at the Changeling. The targets of each were precise as well. Each attack targeting wherever the greatest wounds his daggers had left on the body of his opponent were. Four strikes in total, to match the four physical attacks he had taken to make them. They would be timed to land one after another, the invisible nature not allowing for the cowardly dodger to avoid them as he had his quick attacks. The style of attack enough to really emphasis his strategy of defeat by a thousand pokes.
Syric did not need the big attacks many liked to use. He actually enjoyed chopping foes down like trees, breaking them and seeing just how much pain and suffering he could cause before eventually his enemy would fall.
He grimaced suddenly, the shock of the physicals he took head on reaping the rewards and costing him a chance for a cool ending that he had hoped for. If only he could have given Frostburn a wave and called him Frostburn one more time! That would have been the ending he desired. Maybe the Changeling would surprise him and find a way to survive and still grant him a chance to get the ending he desired from this battle!

Pagoma had no words to describe how he was feeling, nor did he have the energy to try and find them. His body felt like an orange wedge that had its juice squeezed from it entirely, only to be stomped on. But somehow, in its state of agony, Pagoma's body had gone into survival mode and was acting purely on instinct and adrenaline. Then something strange happened. Syric went from being annoyingly evasive of Pagoma's attacks to suddenly just letting Pagoma attack him. Pagoma hesitated at first but didn't want to lose a precious point of attack. Still, he wondered what trick or trap he was playing into. Pagoma knew there were many ways to absorb energy attacks, but wasn't aware of anything that converted physical attacks to energy. But Pagoma would apparently be proven wrong in that regard. "Goodnight," Syric said after taking Pagoma's last strike and falling back. Pagoma thought he had won, but quickly sensed that Syric was building energy for something. "Nice try," Pagoma said to Syric as he held up his blade. The energy expunged from Syric's attack was absorbed into his blade which then coursed through his body, making it his own. But Syric had a few more blasts to follow up the first. As the second approached Pagoma, he let out a quick barrage of small, painless bolts of electricity. These latched onto Syric's attack, once more restoring part of Pagoma's energy. As the third attack came, Pagoma was running out of ways to absorb the energy that Syric was sending him and decided to do the next best thing. Pagoma nearly touched the energy before it wrapped around his body like a warm cloak of fire. For the final blast from Syric, Pagoma quickly added a protective layer around himself to add to the power of the one made from flames. Somehow, Pagoma had escaped the quadruplet of matching energy attacks almost unscathed. Not only that, but he still had a layer of protection around him in the form of two types of shields. Perhaps Pagoma's body really was just acting instinctively, knowing he was moments from death. Pagoma felt like time had come to a stop as the images in front of him became a blur and slowed down. He looked down at his own body, covered in holes and bloody marks, noticing something... A small piece of something not much larger than a pebble had begun to drop out of his armor, where a cut had gone through to one of his interior pockets. "Talk about a lifesaver," Pagoma said as he reached out for the familiar seed. He had no idea that he had any senzu beans left. He hadn't been on anywhere that sold them in months. But somehow, one of them must have been lodged inside of his pocket in a way that went unnoticed. Pagoma quickly popped the seed into his mouth and chewed, feelings it effects immediately. The first sign was the pain. Pagoma had been in such pain before he didn't even realize it. Now, despite the Senzu Bean's effects, the Changeling was feeling all the cuts and stabs all over again. But then, a rushing waive of calm settled in doubled by a revitalization of his energy. Pagoma would do his best to hide any signs of improvement from Syric, biding his time to attack while the Celestial was acting cocky.

Frostburn had finally done something except for dodge. This time he had shown the extent of his ki defenses it seemed all in a burst. Syric was impressed, but as he saw the Changeling finally consume a senzu bean of his own he smiled. Others might have been annoyed, but the Celestial knew what it meant. More time to hurt this hunter.
”Please tell me you are going to fight now?” Syric had stolen many senzu beans and already used one in this battle. He knew what the beans looked like and what they did, ”I want to actually have a fight and not a dodging contest.”
With the hunter taking all his time to defend it had left Syric time to catch his breath as well. He didn’t have the need like Frostburn had though to recover. Instead, his plan was rather straight forward here, continue with the process that got him the advantage to start with.
He flashed his daggers out once again, gripping them tightly before rushing back in. He could see the healing that the recovery bean had done and that was going to be his target to undo all of its hard work. Frostburn had needed to recover and that gave Syric time to make the wounds on his body that much deeper.
Darting in towards his target, he slashed his right-handed dagger up towards the body of his foe and then stabbed the other towards his side. Not wanting to relent he pushed forward, stabbing with the right hand this time into the chest before bringing the left-handed dagger up to stab just under the Changelings ribs.
A quick combination of slashes towards the face followed, looking to cut from ear to nose on each side before he slashed both daggers downwards hoping to cut from the top of his head down to his cheek. A smirk came on his face as he continued the motion stabbing down at one shoulder of the Changeling before slashing at the neck for his final strike of the flurry of weapon strikes.
He figured Frostburn would probably start to dodge again, but even with the help of the senzu bean he was going to have to do something quickly. His weapons wouldn’t win a race against Syrics or at least that is what the Celestial believed. He had proven himself the far superior weapon user in his mind to this point. He needed to remember that if he decided to fight in a grapple again.

Pagoma had been doing what he could just to keep up with Syric's attacks. But that was before the Senzu Bean. Now, he actually had a chance to react with his own offensive techniques. The only trouble, was he was burning through Ki too quickly. He had energy for perhaps one more large attack and then after that he would be spent, with no more tricks up his sleeve. "I want to actually have a fight and not a dodging contest" Syric said before rushing towards Pagoma with his daggers at the ready. "Maybe I'm just too quick for you," Pagoma challenged. The blades from Syric's next weapon attack caused the Changeling's defensive shield of fire to erupt in the Celestial's path. "Don't worry. I'll make it easier for you."Pagoma then relaxed his body as he regressed into his first, most energy-saving form as he allowed Syric's next attack to hit him around his chest, as the blades dug into Pagoma's body once more. The senzu bean had made it feel as though his wounds had scarred, and by Syric opening them back up they were that much worse the second time around. "I don't particularly like battling most opponents in this form," Pagoma admitted. "So weak, compared to my true self. But since this is apparently a marathon, I must save some energy. Maybe now... You can keep up?" Syric's blades struck Pagoma six more times and the Changeling reeled his head back from the pain. He had let Syric get his chance to attack so that he could focus his energy on what came next. "My turn," Pagoma replied. "But don't forget what you said. You want a fight... Not a dodging contest."Pagoma removed his Apollyon from behind his back and charged towards Syric. The blade felt larger in his energy conserving state, but its blows were still capable of deadly force all the same. Pagoma slashed towards Syric's head before changing directions with the blade and stabbing towards the Celestial's stomach. Pagoma then quickly spun around with his Axe extended on his tail, trying to make contact with the Celestial's torso, to leave a nice gash in his side. Pagoma then backed away, putting some space between Syric and himself, but without taking longer than necessary, he placed a palm vertically and pointed it towards his enemy. A powerful beam of energy escaped Pagoma's forward facing palm as it narrowed the distance between Syric and himself. Once it was within a close proximity to his target, Pagoma swirled a finger as if he were stirring his tea and caused the beam to circle around his opponent like he was sizing up his prey. After a few quick laps, Pagoma then sent the beam straight for his enemy's position.
