Kaze vs August and Winter, Part 1

"This is so boring!" August groans.

"Patience, brother, this is a job given to us by mother," Winter replies. "We should be grateful that she even still sees us…"

Currently, August is sitting on top of a pile of bloodied, mangled Pro Slayer corpses like a throne, with his hand resting on top of a decaying skull like a trophy . August is using a bone to pick the human-meat out of his teeth. Winter stands besides her brother, watching his display of half-cannibalism with mild disgust.

"GRATEFUL?!" August snaps. "We were only given the least-important job in this war 'cause that bastard June stole our mother from us! The Blue Demon was only my first loss ever!"

"What about Death's son, Daniel?" Winter asks.

"Doesn't count," August grunts. "He had his half-demon form, I didn't."

"But that's the same with your first fight against Luis…" Winter replies.

"He at least had his half-demon mode!" August snaps. "There's a greater power discrepancy in half-demons between no half-demon mode and half-demon mode, than between half-demon mode and full-demon mode! My victory against the Blue Demon was fair!"

"What was that about the Blue Demon?" A voice asks, and August peers up to see a Pro Slayer in a flight jacket and goggles approaching him.

"EHH?!" August grunts. "Who are you?!"

"Slayer Kaze, a Pro Slayer," the man answers. "Your enemy."

"Whaddya' want?!" August then burps, sending bits of meat and blood flying out of his mouth. Winter pinches her nose shut from the stretch of August's breath.

"I heard you mention Luis, what's your gripe with him?" Slayer Kaze asks.

"The Blue Demon?!" August shouts with another burp. "Ima kill him during this war for humiliating me in front of my mom, and that bastard June, too!"

"I see…" Slayer Kaze replies, as the wind around him begins circling around Slayer Kaze's body. "August and WInter, right? Two half-demon siblings who betrayed the Slayer Organization…I can't let you pass!"

"I see…" August repeats as he hops off of his piles of corpses and stuffs his hands into pockets, slowly stumbling towards Slayer Kaze, like August is drunk off of meat and blood. August stops before Slayer Kaze, staring up at the Pro Slayer. "THEN I'LL HAVE TO KILL YA'!"

Without another warning, August launches a Cursed Power Barrier reinforced punch towards Slayer Kaze, who counters by sending the wind circling around his entire body exploding outwards, and sending August flying backwards.

"Air Manipulation: Sky Shuriken!" Slayer Kaze shouts as the wind circling around him begins to rise into the air and condense, forming a shuriken of wind spiraling in Slayer Kaze's palm.

With a roar, Slayer Kaze swings his arm outwards, sending his Sky Shuriken ripping towards August.

In response, Winter leaps in front of Slayer Kaze and says: "Cryokinesis: Frostbite," and extends a hand outwards, bubbling with Winter's icy-blue Cursed Power.

When Slayer Kaze's Sky Shuriken makes contact with Winter's hand, before it can shred the girl to bits, Winter's icy-blue Cursed Power spreads outwards and wraps around Slayer Kaze's Shuriken, freezing his wind in solid ice.

"Flesh Clones-" August begins to say as he spreads his arms out to his side, and two mounds of flesh begin to bubble out of them, splatting to the ground before molding themselves into two clones of August.

"-Doppelganger!" August shouts as the fists of his clones begin bubbling with red Cursed Power, which they use to slam through Slayer Kaze's frozen Sky Shuriken, shattering it to bits.

"Shatter!" August cackles as he drunkenly kicks around the frozen chunks of the remnants of Slayer Kaze's attack.

"Air Manipulation-" Slayer Kaze begins to shout again as he extends a hand towards August and Winter, but Slayer Kaze is interrupted when a wave of pain courses through his entire body, followed by a squirt of blood which rushes out of Slayer Kaze's nose, forcing the Pro Slayer to drop to the ground on his hands and knees.

"Dammit…" Slayer Kaze grunts as he stares at the ground, his vision cloudy and his breathing ragged. "Luis' friend; Slayer Midori, rescued the Sniper Slayer Squadron and brought us back to the Slayer Organization Headquarters to be healed, so I wanted to return to the battlefield to make up for our crushing defeat at the hands of Treachery and Greed, but now I can hardly move…I suppose I reap what I sow…"

"EH?!" August cries as he stares down at the fatigued Slayer Kaze. "THIS IS ALL YOU GOT?! Paaaa-thetic! And to think you had the balls to challenge me, the Red Demon, Pro Slayer!"

August cackles as he sends one of his Flesh Clones towards Slayer Kaze, kicking the man up into the chin and forcing Slayer Kaze's head to violently snap upwards, before he crashes back to the ground on his back.

August cackles madly again.

"Brother, there's no need to torment this man," Winter pleads as she tugs at August's gi. "Allow me to just kill him now."

"EH?!" August snaps as he spins around to face Winter. "And give you the final shreds of mother's respect that she holds towards us?! Give me a break!" August snaps as he knocks Winter off of him, sending his little sister stumbling backwards.

"You're the failure here, Winter!" August continues as he sends his second Flesh Clone storming towards Winter. "It's because I lumped together with you that mother doesn't favor me anymore! It's all because you can't enter your full-demon form, only your half demon form! You've always been a failure, little sis!"

"You've grown cold after your defeat, brother…" Winter whimpers as she extends a hand outwards, freezing August's clones.

"As ice," August growls as he takes a step towards Winter. Winter -in turn- takes a step forwards, as well, the two half-demons leering one another down.

"Um, excuse me-" Slayer Kaze pipes up as he struggles to his feet. "I'm still here, you know."

"Tch," August grunts as he turns away from Winter, and back towards his original opponent. "I'll make this swift…" August grumbles as he stumbles over to Slayer Kaze.

"Air Manipulation: Towering Tornado!" Slayer Kaze shouts as he slips his arm upwards, and the wind around August and Winter begins to spiral rapidly and rise into the air, forming a giant tornado standing around the two half-demons.

"Plus…Sky Shuriken!" Slayer Kaze then shouts as -within his Towering Tornado- miniature shurikens of wind begin to fly out of the rapidly spiraling winds of the tornado, towards August and Winter, who -in turn- hop out of the way to dodge.

"Cryokinesis: Silver Grip," Winter says as she holds a hand outwards, which begins bubbling with her city-blue Cursed Power. Winter then swipes her hand downwards, freezing the air in front of her, and forming a shield of ice which Winter uses to block Slayer Kaze's attack.

"Flesh Clones: Doppelgangers!" August shouts as he spreads his arms out to his side, and two mounds of flesh begin to bubble out of them, splatting to the ground before molding themselves into two clones of August, which he sacrifices to block the attack.

August sighs as he stares up at the giant tornado. "Not that I need your help or anything, but Winter…if you'd please?" He asks.

"Of course, brother," Winter replies as she takes a step towards the edge of the towering tornado, and places a Cursed Power reinforced hand to the spiraling winds.

Cryokinesis: Frostbite," Winter says, and instantly, Slayer Kaze's entire tornado freezes in its tracks.

"No…way…" Slayer Kaze whimpers as he stares up at the frozen mass of wind.

"Now, brother…your turn," Winter orders.

"Yeah yeah, I know!" August snaps as he spreads his arms out to his side, and two mounds of flesh begin to bubble out of them, splatting to the ground before molding themselves into two clones of August.

"Flesh Clones: Juggernaut!" August shouts as the fists of his Flesh Clones begin bubbling with red August's Cursed Power, which the two Flesh Clones use to slam into one part of Slayer Kaze's Towering Tornado, shattering one segment to bits, and creating an opponent for August and Winter to step out of, and evade Slayer Kaze's attack for good.

"So I can't use ranged attacks…because Winter can just freeze them. And I can't use melee attacks…because August can counter with his clones…" Slayer Kaze mutters to himself. "So I'll have to try…small attacks! So that even if WInter freezes them, I don't expend too much Cursed Power!"

"That's it!"

"Air Manipulation-" Slayer Kaze shouts as he aims his palm at August and Winter, wind swirling around him. "-Sky Shuriken!"

The wind swirling around Slayer Kaze then begins to condense into miniature shurikens of tangible wind and fly towards August and Winter.

"Flesh Clones: Juggernaut!" August shouts as he sends his Flesh Clones charging towards Slayer Kaze's attack in response, their fists bubbling with red Cursed Power.

August's clones attempt to punch through Slayer Kaze's attacks, but instead, Slayer Kaze's wind arrows pierce August's clones, causing them to dissipate back into August's red Cursed Power.
