Dogura rigorously trains in the woods. sweat dripping down the tip of his nose, and soaking his sheath... i require battle with a skilled counterpart...

Blank steps into the clearing, a look of surprise on his face when he sees a familiar face.

Well, well, look who it is. Dogura, glad to see you again. By the looks of it, you need someone to spar with you. I'm on my way to North Castle, but I have time to practice a little. Whenever you're ready.

The would-be nomad draws his lousy Deku Sword and Shield set and prepares to spar.

Dogura turns to see Blank standing there. Well well well. look what the cat dragged in! hahaha. all right Blank. lets start!
Dogura lunges twoard Blank hoping to make him flinch, and if he did, Dogura could attack!

Rather than flinching, Blank drops into a crouch and hurtles forward, ending up directly behind the vagabond. He turns sharply to face his opponent's back, and aims a kick to knock Dogura off guard....

Dogura saw this happening, but could not react quickly enough! He ends up on the recieving end of a spine shattering blow! He goes flying through the air, but regains his focus, and catches him self with one hand, leaps back, and rapidly throws 5 shuriken at blank!

Blank easily deflects the first four stars with sword and shield, but the fifth strikes him square in the chest. He stands still for a moment, looks at the shuriken protruding into his sternum, glances up at Dogura, and then continues fighting, regardless of the weapon caught in his chest.

He runs at his comrade and fakes a thrust, the slides under Dogura's legs and jumps up to deflect any blow Dogura may throw. When no attack is issued, he quicly spins around in front of his opponent and strikes.....

Dogura notices this happening, and Teleports around his back, and thrusts with, not his sword, for that would surely kill him, but the hilt of his sword!

OOC: If you read the post, whats this? that alex the zora helped Dogura take care of, you will see that he somehow gained the ability to teleport! He went off to train with it and eventually harnessed its power.

Blank takes the opportunity to grab his opponent's hilt and fling the weapon away from the battle. Then, taking advantage of Dogura's unarmed state, aims a hefty blow with the flat of his blade.

Dogura takes another hit! A little stunned, He lands on the ground. Hmmph. Perhaps i am taking it easy on you! However now i am prepared to do damage!! Dogura Teleports to 6 different places, creating after images all around blank! Then, when Blank seemes most Vulnerable, He Attacked, Faster than the eye can track!

Although Blank's eyes are well tuned to his surroundings, he doesn't see the attack coming and is quickly knocked off his feet. Landing with a bitter thud, he groans and rolls away from his adversary, springing to his feet in a half-motion and locates his sword. He then begins preparing his trademark sword ability, the Blazin' Cyclone. In five short spins, Blank loses track of his opponent.

Where the hell.....

Dogura, While his after images are still circling, Quicky jumps into a tree! Hoping blank would tire himself out shooting at the images...

Blank notices the real Dogura retreat into a nearby tree, realizing the tactic. He swiftly jumps towards his opponent's hiding place. Conjuring up his spin attack once again, he completely obliterates the tree in a flurry of ash and wood chip, causing Dogura to fall from his perch. As his oppnent falls at an accelerating speed, Blank prepares to kick the vagabond in midair.

Seeing the kick coming, the only thing he could think to do was teleport, but he was still in a state of shock, and couldnt focus! wham!! the kick was right to the side! Dogura flew right into a tree! Badly damaged, he got back up and prepared for impact, for he knew that when Blank attacked, it was never just once, it came in flurries!

And yet, Blank was slowly becoming more and more tired. His fatigue brought him down to a state of clumsiness. As he charged at his fallen opponent, he swung out sloppily with his sword, narrowly avoiding Dogura, but avoiding him nonetheless. His sword was stuck! He pressed his foot into the trunk of the tree and pulled, giving Dogura an unmatched amount of time to take control.

Dogura saw the opertunity! He musters all his might, and uppercuts Blank in the stomache area with the hilt of his blade!
