15 + Destruction +

``Ha!`` A man in a green tunic and some black trousers lunges forward with his sword in both hands. His opponent opposite of him cuts the attack down with a swing of his sword to the flat of his sword causing the his sword to be pulled down. Acting quickly on his feet the green tunic takes steps back to see his opponent's sword sail in front of his face.

His opponent continued changing through to a thrust aimed at his face. The man brings his sword up and parries his opponent's sword while moving back creating distance between him and his opponent.

They both take time to observe each other, switching guard positions now and then to be less predictable in their next attack. The man's opponent is wearing a dark blue tunic with some grey trousers who had an average built with black hair and a gently forming beard. They both hear the cheer and jostling of the crowd around them to continue the fight.

``Get em Gaiden!``

``Strike em down Taavi, I got money riding on you!``

The man named Gaiden wore the green tunic and had his sword laying on his shoulder right now in a crouched position facing his opponent. His eyes were narrowed onto the man in front of him who seemed rather relaxed having his sword almost touch the ground pointed at Gaiden.

``Fool!`` Gaiden did a heavy horizontal attack while taking a step forward to strike. Taavi took a step back and to his left thrusting the sword under Gaiden's sword hitting the side of Gaiden.. Gaiden's sword was left soaring in the air hitting nothing, and to combine this to his movements he took a heavy hit in his side making him fall to the ground clutching his side. The crowd roared in cheers.

Taavi stood over Gaiden victorious ``Good job naming the guard.`` He held his hand out for him.

Gaiden began to stand up slapping taavi's hand away. Taavi shrugged and held his hand up for the crowd to roar once more in his acknowledgment of his victory.

``Taavi!`` A big man to the side of the ring comes up to him. ``You've officially become the strongest young fighter in the village!`` He pats his old friend on the back which felt like someone striking his back with rocks.

Taavi answers while beginning to move out of the ring ``No, This ain't official until Bo comes here and fights me`` He climbed out the side of the ring where many men and women shouted and cheered for him once again upon seeing his face.

The big man nicknamed strong responded ``We don't know if Bo is going to come back, he might've died on the battlefield.``

``Ain't true I saw him leave the battle alive, He had that freak An behind him as he was leaving.`` He placed the practice sword into a sword holster to the side.

``Maybe he recognizes the greatness of a warrior such as you when you were on the battlefield.`` Strong smiles at Taavi.

``Yeah, right!`` Gaiden who was just licking his wounds shouts over to taavi and his big friend ``If my big brother was here I would've beaten you to the ground!``

``Gaiden shut the hell up, You couldn't even swat a fly with that sword must less beat anyone with it. Striking air like you want to bloody make something non existent appear`` Strong retorted back

``Shut up! You're not even participating in this competition, I can destroy you with one of my eyes closed like this!``

``We both know if I joined the competition I would've brutalized your skinny as*!`` Strong took a step forward and Gaiden heavily misjudged his height so when he also step forward he was staring at his chest.

Taavi stopped them and said ``Strong lets just continue this conversation else where.`` Placing his arm in front of the two

Taavi opened his mouth to say something else but he heard a large boom, and the crashing of the roof commenced causing him to be sent back flying as pieces of the wood were seemingly sent flying in all directions. The wood was burning and when they hit the floor the floor also started to burn.

He heard combat and sword clashing as he struggled to get to his feet. He saw a fight scene occur in front of him a man with armor broken and skin that had bright red cracks in it as if the man was just made of stone and inside of him was a volcano ready to blow.

The man was fighting with the fighters in the village, He struck his sword down the side of one of the elders taking steps and spinning perfectly to dodge another strike which sailed into the floor and then he thrusted his sword into another's neck. Pulling it out he ducked perfectly under the strike of a middle aged man causing the other who got hit in the neck to be struck in the chest.

The middle aged man sword was stuck and he began to look where his opponent was but was met with a sharp slicing of his neck. He was right beside him, after slicing his neck he pulled the sword to the front fending off an attack to his chest. He pushed the other man's sword to the side with the sharp and struck the man in the chin in one fluid motion; he took a few steps in this as well.

By this point he had killed a total of five people in quick succession without falter in movement, when he took a chance to stop moving the men to the back of him began rushing forward when the other man fell to his knees clutching his neck. He rushed forward and wanted to thrust into his skull when he was met with a side step and with a strike to his gut. The demon made the strike continue into another motion snapping it in front of him just in time to ward off an attack and cut into someone's shoulder.

The man was utilizing still standing but wounded individuals for cover in his movements, the man holding his neck was used to obstruct the man and make his back covered and when the noise of his knees touching the floor was heard he easily deduced an attack.

Only when everyone was on the floor around him did people eventually stop coming and striking, The fighters he killed were some experienced guards who weren't fazed by the intrusion and immediately struck without a coherent plan other than to kill the man and get everyone situated.

Taavi recognized the situation everyone else was in when he saw the ease of each of the man's movements. He moved like an expert and did his movements with ease even though they were sort of complex in their own way.

He got up and began to shout ``Everyone run! Leave the building it's a monster!`` Taavi was generally frightened by the monster but he also didn't want to just run like a coward he continued ``Only fighters stay and deal with the bastard in front of us!``

Taavi looked around and grabbed a knife that was inside of a carcass of a dead animal. He just needs to get close and deliver a good thrust to end him rightly. He and the warriors of the village began to close in on the monster. To their surprise it moved first headfirst into the crowd of warriors.

He did a diagonal strike moving a sword down and away followed by an ascending cut into his jaw. He continued forward bringing the sword into a thrust aimed at someone's exposed chest. He spun and took a step to the side dodging a diagonal swing. He then did a quick strike aimed at the mans exposed wrist. He got hit slightly with the point of a blade on his shoulder.

He continued with another horizontal strike controlling his opponents blade and thrusting into his neck. He got hit again with the unnecessary movement on his back but it was shallow and most likely superficial.

He continued forward spinning around and ducking under the man's follow up swing to thrust into his chest, following the spin he kicked his leg out causing two men to fall to the ground. Once he got up he did a wide motion swing which led to him getting a deep wound in his side causing him to stumble to the side.

He began to move forward to strike someone else that was in front of him While moving forward he felt a sharp hit in his back making him spit out blood and stumble forward.

He stumbled forward and began to float into the air, contracting all of his arms and legs to form a ball a visible torrent of what looked like to be air surged forward encasing him into a bubbled and then he jutted out his arms and legs suddenly causing an explosion to happen around him.

Boom. . . .

Whoever was the closest to him got immediately burnt to the crisp and limbs blown off unrecognizable in the face. Taavi was among those of the closest readying his short blade for a thrust to his neck. The building was blown sky high and the people who made it out was faced with fire all around them.

The streets were burning, the log house behind them was burning and it looked like there was no way out. Some of them died a quick death when they were hit with rubble from the pieces of flying material others were burned and those who lived long enough were able to see him.

They swore that in the next life they would torture the man, Folke who they wanted to kill was unrecognizable to their eyes they couldn't recognize him no matter what face he had. Folke had sandy blonde hair but this man's hair was darker then folke and his face also exuted some sort of coldness never seen before and his eyes were lifeless like he never could understand what he was doing to them.

But most people changed their opinion when they saw the man who destroyed their town expression change, A woman looked at folke with a child in her arms `He's smilingly?` Then her neck was cut when Folke rushed forward and cut her neck. They would rather never meet the man in the next life at all if possible.
