Water Sorcerer

"Are you going to get off the stairs?" Asked Tamayo irritated about how long Lavender sat on the stairs.

"I can't move my left arm," uttered Lavender. "Is this some type of poison?"

Lavender finally got up from her seating position and made her way down the stairs.

"You finally came the stairs huh," Tamayo said laughing. "Now I will show you my strength."

Tamayo rushed at Lavender releasing an array of punches, Lavender trying to keep up with the punches tries to wait for an opening.

As an opening appears Lavender goes in for a punch, causing Tamayo to smile.

"To slow," Tamayo shouted.

As she says this her elbow connects with Lavender's temple causing her to go flying.

"Even if you can find an opening your still too slow, I can still sense you're cursed energy."

"I can't keep getting hit," Lavender thought to herself. "I've already been poisoned, I suspect I have around 10 minutes before the poison spreads across the left side of my body."

Lavender again got up "I can't risk getting hit."

As she rushed towards Tamayo again she yelled

"Water Element, Water Pillar Projection"

As pillars of water came from the ceiling appeared on top of Tamayo's and slamming into the ground.

"What a futile attack," Tamayo said as she easily dodged the attack, and appeared in front of Lavender with her claws out.

As she swiped her claws towards Lavender's arm. Lavender shouted.

"Water Element, Water Shield"

As Lavender spoke these words her arm suddenly was covered with water. As Tamayo's claws reached Lavender's arm the water caused it to only scratch the sleeves of her jacket.

"If it wasn't for her water protecting her arm, I would've clawed her arm off," Tamayo thought to herself "She's quite impressive."

Lavender with no hesitation once again rushed at Tamayo, even with her lack of speed and the incapability of hitting Tamayo, her water shield blocked all of Tamayo's threatening attacks.

"Damn! Even if I'm blocking her attacks now I still need to tag her. If I don't I'll run out of time."

"That's it! If I'm lacking in speed I'll just use that technique," Lavender said

"I'm no way near Manjiro's and Shita's level in terms of mastery over this technique but I have no other choice,"

As Lavender disappeared from Tamayo's vision, an expression of shock forged onto Tamayo's face then a look of confidence.

"Still," Said Tamayo as she turned around and slammed Lavender to the ground by her neck. "Even if you increase your speed I can still sense you by your cursed energy,"

As Tamayo let go of Lavender and got her claws ready to slice Lavender's head off, She sensed a kick coming towards her chin.

Tamayo easily dodges the attack by stepping back, but in the process she let Lavender get up and escape.

"She went out the main entrance her partner kicked down before our battle huh?" Tamayo spoke while trying to sense Lavender's cursed energy. "She is fast indeed, if I didn't have the ability to sense cursed energy her speed would be too much for me."

"That was close," Lavender thought to herself as she sat down on the grass. "Even with my flash step, she could still grab me."

As Lavender was sitting down trying to figure out how a technique like the flash step would get countered so easily she remembered something.

"That's right! That girl demon can sense my cursed energy all I have to do is get rid of that ability," Lavender said as she saw Tamayo leaving the castle.

"Are you ready to die?" Asked Tamayo

With no hesitation, Tamayo ran towards Lavender with the attention to end the battle.

As she went in for a punch towards Lavender who was standing still. Tamayo realized her body was unbalanced her body started tipping forward. As she looked behind her she saw Lavender was still standing but with her fist extending forwards.

Tamayo still confused about how she missed Lavender felt a series of punches land all over her body. She went flying to a nearby forest in which she slammed into a tree.

"Why you!" Tamayo shouted as she got back up and rushed towards Lavender.

Tamayo threw every move she knew in her arsenal but with only one hand Lavender easily blocked her.

"Damn It! Why can't I sense your cursed energy?" Shouted Tamayo with anger in her voice as she went in for a punch.

The punch however was easily grabbed by Lavender who responded to Tamayo's question "Why can't you sense my cursed energy?" Lavender went on "It's simple I suppressed it."

Before Tamayo could open her mouth she ate a roundhouse to the face shattering it.

"During the start of our fight, I wondered why you relied on sensing my cursed energy." Lavender uttered "But now I know is it because your… Blind?" Lavender asked.

"Why you!" Tamayo yelled in rage

"I'll take that as a y- huh?" Before Lavender could finish her sentence she noticed something different about Tamayo

From Tamayo's hands, she emitted two black holes.

"Darkness, Black Holes!"

As Tamayo yelled those words everything around her started getting sucked in by the black holes including Lavander.

"Nothing can escape from my Black Holes, including light! Only my two brothers have escaped this attack now die!"

Lavender who was desperately trying to escape from getting sucked in shielded her body with water.

However just like the surrounding area her water was easily sucked in. With no water protecting her Lavender starts flying towards the black holes.

"This my battle!" Shouted Tamayo as she saw Lavender heading into one of the black holes.

"Water Element, Water Wave!"

As Lavender was reaching Tamayo's palm a wave of water scooped her up and sent her crashing in the middle of the forest.

"That was close," Lavender gasped trying to catch her breath. "Half a second more and I would've been sucked in by her attack."

"My left body is starting to get numb I only have around 3 minutes," Lavender said as she got up from the poodle of water. "I have enough cursed energy for my final attack."

"I hoped that I didn't need it for this fight but she's stronger than I expected," As she started to tie up her wet hair "After this attack, I'll most likely pass out."

Outside the forest, Tamayo, still full of rage was more angered that she couldn't kill Lavender right there and then.

"Damn her! I'm going to kill her even if it's the last thing I do!" Tamayo said as she powers up increasing the size of the black holes.

The increase of the black hole caused all the trees in the forest to get sucked up and even parts of the castle.

Taking too much damage from all the fights the castle starts breaking down.

"Manjiro!" Said Shita who realized that the castle was going to crumble any second "We need to get out of the castle! Go through the hole Sozo made!"

As they both make it out of the castle they see Tamayo on the other side of the castle.

"We need to go help, Lavender!" Manjiro shouted

"No he's getting up," Said Shita, as both looked at Sozo getting up.

As the forest was nearly all sucked away a giant shadow appears on Tamayo.

As she looks up she sees a giant creature soring in the sky, its size doubling the size of the castle.

As the creature sored over Tamayo and wrapped around the castle preventing it from falling, it stared in the direction of Tamayo.

"Don't tell me… Is that a dragon!" Tamayo said with fear in her voice.

At the top of the dragon's head stood Lavender.

"Water Element, Water Dragon"

As the water dragon rushed towards Tamayo, Tamayo again powers up increasing the size of the black hole, but the dragon's speed is too great.

"No way my black holes can't keep up with her!" Tamayo yelled as the water dragon rushed at her with its mouth open devouring her.

As Tamayo was defeated by Lavender her water dragon disappeared causing her to fall from the sky and crashl to the ground causing a crater.

"Manjiro…. Shita… Win!" Lavender screamed as she lost consciousness.

As both Shita and Manjiro stared at Sozo they heard Lavender's scream they both responded simultaneously.

"Right!"
