Drunk as They Like (Open)

[Felix Falora]

Considering Leslie did not follow the Spellcard System, his neck had indeed been snapped... were he not a Ditto. "I don't have any real bones to break," he said to the more then drunk Oni. "But hey... I'm sure weirder things have been seen."

The next piece of music started up as Yugi was sent in to fight alone. Well at least these girls have honor, I'll give them that. Especially since they're stronger then they look. Taking battle stance, no weapons upon him, he grinned. "Ready when you are," he replied.

[ShadesofGrey18]

Suika wiped sweat off her brow. "Whew! That's a good thing; we like to fight, but I don't wanna kill someone. That just makes the fight seem bitter."

Yugi took another drink from her dish and smirked. "Here we go!" She tossed her sake dish up again, then jumped high into the air. She fired more danmaku as she descended. After the volley, she launched herself downward, fist extended.

[Felix Falora]

Yup. She's seen weirder alright. This ran through Leslie's mind before Yugi's attack. The minute she attacked, he could see her throw her sake dish up into the air. Is that how she controls her powers? Deciding to test something in the middle of battle, he managed to dodge her danmaku, but then jumped as she tried to punch him. Landing on her head, Leslie pushed off and immediately reached for the sake dish.

[ShadesofGrey18]

Yugi turned around. "What the... oh, HELL NO! Don't even think about touching my sake dish!" Yugi flew after him, eyes blazing. She prepared another spell card as she lunged for Leslie's legs. "You probably don't know how difficult it is to make a dish that could withstand an Oni's level of fighting!"

Suika, watching from the sidelines, thought to herself, slightly panicked, 'If that thing hits the ground, Yugi's gonna flip!'

[Felix Falora]

"If this thing is how you control those powers, then I can't let you keep it!" Leslie was a tactician, but he was also ignorant on the denizens of Gensokyo. Highly ignorant. If he was not stopped by Yugi, he would probably learn how exactly ignorant he was when she started to beat the shit out of him. Thankfully, however, she did stop him. As she lunged for his legs, he did not move them in time. She could easily throw him out of the way and reclaim her dish. Now the question was... would her sake finally spill?

[ShadesofGrey18]

Yugi said, "My powers come from me! I just drink from that dish!" Yugi lunged for her falling sake dish, just barely saving it from hitting the ground. Suika started to sweat bullets as Yugi looked at it. "Hm... Not even a drop. Consider yourself lucky, buddy."

Suika released a breath she didn't even realize she was holding.

Yugi said, "That was far too close for my liking. This ends here!" She activated her spellcard, her personal favorite. "Four Devas' Arcanum: Knockout in Three Steps!"

[Felix Falora]

Not even a drop?! Is this woman a god?! Dear Arceus, what have I gotten myself into?! He wasn't panicking on the outside, but his mind was currently a maelstrom. Good thing the Oni didn't have mind reading powers or else they'd be able to take bigger advantage of his mental stress then Yugi already was by getting ready to knock his ass out. "Knockout in three-OH SHI-!" The attack would definently take him off guard and by the time his mind would be fit to react, it would be too late.

[ShadesofGrey18]

Suika said, "Ooh! I haven't seen this in a looong time!"

Yugi punched the ground with her free hand. A shockwave went through the area as small danmaku hovered close to her. "ONE!"

She then stomped with her right foot. Another shockwave went through the area, a bit more powerfully, as larger danmaku hovered a little further out. "TWOOOO..."

Finally, Yugi punched the air. No shockwave occurred, but then again, there was no need for one. The large circular danmaku filled the area as the smaller bullets flew outward. "THREE!"

Yugi took a drink from her dish. Sake always tasted sweeter to her after a battle. "The End."

[Felix Falora]

The shockwave knocked him into the air. The second shockwave kept him airborne. And then the bullets utterly destroyed him. Because they were danmaku as opposed to bullets, he did not appear as swiss cheese. But were he a normal human, he would've been deader then dead anyway. Broken bones would've seen to that. Still, he wasn't actually knocked out. That would've been a shock. But he did collapse trying to get back up, so it was still game over nonetheless.

[ShadesofGrey18]

Yugi chuckled to herself, saying "Hahaha... I haven't had this much fun since the time that Shrine Maiden and her friends went through the Ancient City! C'mon, Suika, help me get this guy on his feet. Change the contents of your gourd to something that'll help him recover."

Suika jumped down by Yugi. "Sure, sure! That was fu-un! Maybe we should hang around with this guy for a while, he seems cool!"

Yugi picked Leslie up, saying "Yeah, I don't see why not. I mean, it's not like we have anything important that we need to do. 'Sides, he fought us, and lost fair and square; he's cool in my book."

Suika said, "'Kay, I changed my gourd's contents from Sake to a healing potion. Open his mouth, willya?" Yugi did so, and Suika poured the potion down his throat. "Might be kinda bitter, but that oughta' do it."

[Felix Falora]

He couldn't resist when Yugi picked him up. Energy spent, he was at their mercy. He could barely make out what they were saying. If he had, he would've most likely protested. However, when the potion went down his throat, he felt his energy returning until it was at a point at which it needed to burst. His body began shifting rapidly, fluxating like crazy, until it finally stabalized back into his natural human form. "Wow... that felt weird." Rubbing his eyes, he picked himself up easily. "Thank you... oh, wait, healing, that reminds me." Letting Ninetails out of her ball, the Pokemon was at rest, but still healing. Taking out a spray labelled High Potion, he began to use it on her. She bristled a bit; the spray naturally stung. However, within a couple of seconds, she bounded back onto her feet and shook it off.

[ShadesofGrey18]

Suika, after changing her gourd's contents back to her precious Sake, took a look at Leslie's Ninetails. "Hm... kinda reminds me of Yukari's shikigami, Ran. 'Least, the tails do." Suika thought for a minute, then uncorked her gourd and held it out to Ninetails. "Wanna try some?"

Yugi said to Leslie, "Hey, don't worry 'bout it. You fought us, and fought fairly, win or lose. We Oni respect that. Tell ya what, would'ya be willing to have us tag along with 'ya for awhile? We don't have anything better to do here, we just like to fight." She held out her (free) hand.

[Felix Falora]

The Ninetails looked at the gourd and sniffed it lightly. However, she couldn't just drink out of the gourd, lacking the proper anatomy to do so, and shook her head lightly. The potion that her friend used on her helped enough and she rather didn't trust herself around the gourd.

Leslie listened to the Oni's offer. He tried to look interested, but he already knew his answer. Though he shook her head. "I am honored, but I apologize. I'm on a mission... a hunt of sorts. And I'm currently not looking for company. Still, this world seems ripe full of warriors. I'm sure you'll find one more challenging then I." He gave a soft smile as he said this.

[ShadesofGrey18]

Suika looked slightly disappointed, she was kinda hoping that the little fox would try some of the Sake. She shrugged and took a drink, herself.

Yugi smirked. "Tsk. That's too bad, but best of luck with whatever you're doing. 'Ya ever need help, just look for us, and we'll help ya. That's an Oni's promise!"

[Felix Falora]

"I'll keep that in mind." He nodded softly. "Best of luck in your search for the strongest, I'm sure." After giving a proper farewell (bow and all), he turned to leave. The Ninetails, her ears perking up, immediately followed suit.
