The brute man sped blitz into Gabi causing him to crash into the brick wall. When Gabi's back made an impact with the wall the muscular man pulled out his sword and aimed it to slash diagonally at Gabi's body.
" UGH!" Gabi yelped from getting slashed feeling the aching burning pain on his torso.
( He's too fast.)
The man didn't just stop there he attempted to punch Gabi's head with his right fist into the wall but Gabi gripped his arm with his left hand and uppercut the man in his chin with his right fist when the man lost his balance for a brief second Gabi hurried up and place his two hands on the ground and put all his strength/ curse energy in his arms to boost him up from the ground so his feet can make contact with the man's face causing him to launch him away from him. Gabi grabbed the sword the man dropped.
( I guess I can play around on his terms.)
The man got up from the ground and cracked his neck, " That kick had a lot of power in it." the man pulled out a dagger with a jitter-shaped blade out of the curse mouth that was wrapped around him.
" You think that small weapon can stop me," Gabi went on guard.
" Size doesn't matter kid," The man was taunting Gabi and walking up to him not even worried about Gabi's next attack.
( Is he messing with me?)
Gabimaru gritted his teeth at the man and hated how the man looked down on him. In a normal battle, Gabi will most likely have a cool head but what ticks him off the most is having his opponents think he is not capable of being on the same field as them.
" My name is not 'kid' it's Gabimaru and you will remember it. "
The man shrugged his shoulders, " Nah, I don't remember names it's not my style but you will remember mine."
Gabi gripped the handle on the sword tight and charged without thinking straight he let his anger take control and with that, the man spun around him and grabbed Gabimaru by the back of his neck and used the majority of his force and slam the boy in the ground face front causing more damage to the ground and now the cracks that once was there turn into crumbles. The man lifts Gabi's vegetable body by the neck so he can see his pitiful face.
" Hmm, I was wrong about you. I thought this fight was going to be fun. Oh well, " The man was about to fling Gabi away but he was surprised when Gabi did an unpredicted attack and pierced the man in his stomach by using his vines to cover his left hand to create a reverses curve knife but out of vines. He dropped Gabi to the ground due to feeling a sharp pain in his body.
" How are you operating properly when I split your skull open?" The man said with a smug look on his face while he touched his wound with one hand while holding his other hand holding his dagger.
Gabi got off the ground, " Of course a person without curse energy wouldn't know that you can also use curse energy to defend yourself from attacks," Gabi rubbed his somewhat gashed head. " It still hurts like a bitch though."
The man ripped his shirt open and wrapped it around his wound tightly to stop the bleeding "Yeah, this thing you gave me hurts like a bitch, I haven't gotten this badly injured in a long time. Let the beast inside you come out because all I see is a trapped animal. You sorcerers act all high and mighty thinking what you do is good for society but at the end of the day we are all killers." The man licks his danger getting ready to attack.
Gabi pushed the dripping blood from his eyes to get it out of the way of his sight. " Never once I thought I was high and mighty I despise people who act like that."
The man gave out a light chuckle, " My name is Toji and this is the first time I've found someone who has a similar mindset as me. It's a shame I have to kill you though." The smug look that was on his face disappeared and became dark.
Toji and Gabi charge, facing each other blows. Gabi pulled out his vines to trap Toji by the ankles but just like last time it didn't work the powerful man broke out of it and lunged at Gabi with his danger.
( I will just accept this attack.)
Toji thought he had the upper hand when he pierced through Gabi's body from the front to the back of him. A smile wore on Toji's face as blood splashed on him and he was wearing Gabi's blood as an honor but little did Toji know Gabi made his curse energy flow towards his fists to unleash this huge immense energy onto his fist. On Gabi's fists, you can see how his curse energy went from blue to black and he gave in two blows to Toji's body causing a great deal of damage to him.
" What the fuc.." Toji couldn't finish his sentence when blood gushed out of his mouth.
Gabimaru started to feel lightheaded due to using that move. It was an attack that he's been working on ever since he was 10 years old. Since he only has half of his curse energy, using that attack two times made him almost reach his limit.
" That is Black Flash," Gabi gave the man a cheeky smile with his eyes half-closing.
( Damned it. I have to stay awake! Come on Gabi!)
Toji wiped the blood off his mouth, "You sneaky brat."
Gabi forces himself to stand up straight to not show his enemy that he's weak, "I'm sneaky? You use a curse weapon that can nullify any curse attacks. How is that even fair?"
( That stab he gave me caused me to lose a lot of blood and I used up most of my curse energy. I'm a goner at this point. )
Toji regains himself from the big attack that he received from Gabimaru even though he's weak at the moment he still has enough energy left to kill off the teenage boy. Toji walks up to the worn-out boy and is about to decapitate his head but his plans fail when a red-haired girl punches him in the gut creating distance between them as he is flying in the air he pulls out his handgun and fires shots at the girl's body. As Gabi's eyes were closing due to exhaustion he saw the bullets penetrating her body he tried to come to her side but his body gave up and he fell backward on the ground.
" Makima…" his eyes finally closed.
