Just a 'little' fight

Alexiel's eyes narrowed when the cocoon was empty. She looked at the puppet and rolled her eyes. She knew him well enough to know that it wasn't the real him. "Using clones instead of yourself? Now that's not the bravest thing you've done, Jira," she said, insulting him, wherever he was.

She aimed more rocks for the puppet, and creating more cracks in the earth. Hopefully some, or all, of the unused blood would spill in, so when she closed it back up he would be forced to come out.

"Doesn't look like you could win if I did that, ok Ill lower myself just for you."

She just wanted to die as soon as he said this. She knew it was an insult and she knew exactly what he was attacking. It didn't take a genius to figure that out. Fists clenched as she grew angrier... she was never going to be good enough, was she?

"Shut the hell up and just fight on your level," she growled, holding back some nastier words she could have said at that moment. "Just FIGHT."

The whole cave was rumbling now. Stalactites and rocks were beginning to fall at random, crashing to the floor and breaking. It was a good thing that they weren't in some sort of city, since it would probably be in the process of destruction... and had this been winter, well, avalanches weren't pretty either. The outside of the place was beginning to get pretty shaken up as well.

She dropped one of her fans and didn't even watch as it dug into the earth. She was just too upset to do anything but fight right now.

October held the blade of her scythe to Adelina's neck.

"Is this over yet?" she asked with an impatient sigh.

Adelina kicked the younger girl in the stomach, keeping her away. She didn't bother answering, just wanting her little sister to regain her own mind.

Alexiel merely stared at the blood. The ground rumbled again and in a moment, her fan popped out of the ground, followed by boiling water shooting out, somewhat like a geyser. It was just a little bit in front of the blood, so hopefully that would do something. Adelina's slush had kept Jira from using the blood, so maybe mixing water with it would too.

She had to take a step back, though. It was hot, and not being a water elementalist, she couldn't change the temperature or where it went. Alexiel prepared herself to do something else, just in case the geyser didn't do anything to the blood.

She pouted slightly. Unfortunately, that hadn't worked. Alexiel grumbled slightly, but didn't make any effort to cover the hole back up. Maybe it could at least do some physical damage later on, if it didn't do anything to his powers.

The fifteen-year-old brought up a rock wall once again. For now, it was really the only defense she knew how to do. Whether those spikes would break it or not, she didn't know, but she hoped that they wouldn't.

Alexiel breathed a sigh of relief when the blood didn't crash through the rock. Something fishy was going on, though, but unable to spot it, the fifteen-year-old calmed herself for now. She didn't think that there was any way for the blood to reach her.

However, there were two cracks and hole's that the blood could most likely get through to get to the teenager. It was just a matter of time before that actually happened.
