◄ HAVEN'T YOU HEARD WHAT BECOMES OF CURIOUS MINDS? This wasn't going as well as she had hoped. The sudden quick strike while her own body had trouble adjusting to both the speed-up and the slowing hit her and she tried to back away. When a sudden volley of strikes followed, it really spelled the worst possibility to her as she felt the strikes hitting into her body. Cuts tearing through her suit and her condition was just worsening by the second, this person she was facing definitely seemed to favor speed above all. She guessed it was practically his 'gimmick' at this point. When the man leapt away, Crowe hoped to gain some breathing room as she stepped further back. Perhaps to heal or something, but it seemed the attack had not finished as Crowe kept track of the man who had found a... ball from the audience? Really?! isn't that a foul? Who was throwing things in? Bringing up her arms, she gritted her teeth as she took the ball. The ball exploded into her as she felt herself lift from the ground and fall back on the ground and slide away. Thinking back on this match and her talk with Ramza. It seemed to be her turn to get tossed around then? Better... not let that... happen, she thought a little bothered by the situation. If Ramza was going to get attacked from two sides, it would probably not spell good for him either. Curative energies were charging through her body, but Crowe found her spell not functioning as well as it should. Was it the damage? Or something the man did to her? Actions 1. Guarded some of the Blitz Ace's final hit. 2. Charging Curaga, which is takes a charge before cast due to Delay Buster. 3. Removed due to Slowga.

The pressure was felt as their blades made contact with each other, but at the same time, this pressure in a way made things exhilarating in a way as well. Though his face remained stoic and calm, his face wasn’t able to really express just how intense this fight really had become. It was a true challenge, and a challenge he would not back down from. Each strike from his blade was a strike that allowed Zest to respect the opponent that he fought.
With his shield back in his hand, he was now back in a better position. In an attempt to strike, Zest attempted to utilize Ultimate Shield upon Ramza, but Ramza managed to counter in a way. Narrowing his eyes and gritting his teeth, Zest let out a loud grunt as suddenly a surge of energy burst forth from Ramza. It truly was a powerful blow, but though Zest was hit, he was lucky that at the very least the technique of Ramza was weakened due to the shield he had tossed. With his defenses weakened from the earlier slash, Zest could only cringe in pain as he was knocked back. His feet began to slide upon the ground, but the warrior managed to remain on his feet, moving his arm all the while. Though his initial strike was parried, Zest continued the assault. With the final blow of his Ultimate shield, Ramza was knocked back and with it, Zest managed to gain some breathing space for now.
Slouching a tad and panting a bit, Zest managed to compose himself and rise up, standing strong and firm. At that moment Zest could feel the movement of his body feel almost lighter, as if they were sped up. It was a feeling he was familiar with and knew that his ally had managed to use time magic upon him. “I am fine! Stand strong!” Zest yelled out to his companion as he raised his hand waved it to the side, calling upon the power of white magic to cast Protect upon himself.
Bolstering his defense with his action the warrior’s assault began once again. With the tip of his sword now pointing down towards the ground, his blade began to shine a radiant light. “Shining Wave!” Zest yelled out as he swung his blade upwards and released his light towards Ramza. Numerous pillar of light began to burst upwards from the ground and started to form a trail that traveled towards Ramza. Each pillar of light was close to each other and erupted upwards fast, forming almost what did seem like a wave heading towards Ramza.
With his strike now released Zest was prepared to follow up with another blow. Whether Ramza dodged, defended or even got hit by the blow, the blond knight would soon find himself being the target of Zest’s shield. With a mighty toss Zest attempted to toss his shield straight at Ramza and then proceed to dash forward and thrust his blade forward at him should the shieldmake contact.

Location: Disney Town Mood: Determined Status: Heavy Injuries Ramza took a quick glance at his partner while the adversary Knight readied himself; the situation looked dire, as she was under a powerful attack from the enemy. He gritted his teeth and focused on Zest; she would need to manage to resist the attack without him. He had a plan, a risky one, but one that seemed his only option in the currently dire situation. The opponent seemed to rely a lot on his shield for offense. That made him a fearsome long-distance fighter, but also was something Ramza could exploit. As the opponent launched his pillars of light, Ramza braced himself - that would hurt, but there was no other option for his plan to work, as he lacked the necessary maneauverability due to Slowga. He took the explosion head-on, being launched even further behind, even closer to Tidus, standing between Tidus and Zest. He prayed that Crowe was still fine, and prepared himself as the Knight did what he expected - another long-range blow with the shield. The weapon crossed the air like an arrow, straight towards Ramza. The Squire dodged in the very last second that his slowness allowed, Rushing straight up. The shield flew below him, inertia carrying it further - towards Tidus! Trading his own blood for a positioning boost, Ramza made sure to be in the right place to turn Zest's attack against his own partner.
Surely, Tidus would try to avoid the strike, and likely would succeed, due to his natural agility and athleticity. That is, if Ramza didn't intervene - which he did. He focused on Tidus as he ascended and, as soon as the blond athlethe tried to move a muscle, Ramza would Throw his Rocks at him, hopefully harassing him enough to stop his evasive maneauver and make him a victim of Zest's shield - and whatever came after. Finally, Ramza landed, feeling his normal speed returning. Thanking the gods, he observed what Crowe was doing - seemed to be casting some sort of spell. Both of them were very injuried, and the fight seemed to be going on the enemy's way - but Ramza was confident they could still turn the tables around. They forged a connection on the last round, and Ramza would trust his life to Crowe if needed. Right now, he prayed she would do the same, for he had another plan. He made a quick gesture - something they planned previously, between the rounds - and left on her hands if she wanted to gamble on him, or follow her own strategy.
TAILWIND ON CROWE: 1 MORE TURNS SHOUT ON RAMZA: 2 MORE TURNS
Summary: Ramza took Zest's Shining Wave attack, using the knockback of the attacks to position himself in a straight line between Zest and Tidus. Then, he Rushed out of the way of the first portion of his Sword Thrust (as in, the Shield throw), making it go towards Tidus instead (ACTION 1). He then used Rock Throw against Tidus, nullifying his next defensive action, trying to make the shield hit him (ACTION 2).
OOC: Not entirely sure if Sword Thrust still goes through against Tidus if the shield hits or if Zest can cancel it mid-move. Clarification would be appreciated. ✿ EDEL ✿

Was it cheating that Tidus got the audience to join in on his attack? Maybe, but he knew how to entertain a crowd and this particular member of the audience had approached him, prior to the fight, asking if she could do anything for him in his upcoming match. That was the main point of this for the creators of this tourney right to entertain the crowd and for the contestants to show what they could do. So despite maybe the legality of his move he figured it would put on a great show at least which is all that mattered. He made a mental note to apologize to Crowe after the match just to be safe, but for now he had to stay focused on the match. His attack hit and caused the girl to look very ragged in damage possibly even being close to being defeated. This put a smile on Tidus’ face as this meant they might just beat these opponents too. How exciting would it be for the two of them to win despite just meeting each other? Would certainly be a fun tale to tell Yuna back home in Spira. The match wasn’t over though as Tidus looked back at his partner and his opponent and he seemed to being some hefty damage to Ramza. “Yes,” Tidus said in excitement as Zest’s shinning wave hit Ramza and was ready to continue his onslaught upon the girl when Ramza appeared between him and Zest. “What the?” Tidus said in confusion when he realized the boy’s plan as he was attempting to use Zest’s shield against him. Certainly a nice strategy, but due to the boy’s sluggish nature from the spell he cast earlier Tidus knew he could dodge at least one of the two attacks. The blonde decided the rocks would be easier to dodge than the shield so he jumped away from the rocks using a flip and pivoted off his landing foot to parry the shield away with a thrust. The shield would travel away from Tidus and he would continue his momentum into a jump into the air. His sword would glow for a few seconds and he would slash the air with his sword. Energy beams of light would launch out of his blade and hone in on Crowe and converge on one point to hopefully deal a finishing blow on the woman. Hopefully they could end this match soon as Tidus knew he wasn’t going to last too long with this onslaught of attacks. Actions:1. Tidus used Cut and Run to dodge the rocks and attack the shield away from him. (flips away to dodge attacks and thrusts forward to opponent dealing light damage) 2. Tidus then used Energy Rain upon Crowe. (Charges Weapon with energy and fire beams of light at enemy causing massive damage) [Uses Two Actions] CD:Blitz Ace: 3 posts Quick Hit: Ready Cheer: Ready Cut and Run: Ready Ramza Beoulve @crowe @zest

◄ HAVEN'T YOU HEARD WHAT BECOMES OF CURIOUS MINDS? This hadn't been playing out as well as she had hoped. Seeing Ramza rush towards them, Crowe switched from attempting to use the Curaga on herself to Ramza as the curative energies went there instead. Speaking of this, the Kingsglaive was curious if this would confuse Tidus somewhat. The charge was already unusual, but she felt all the slowness had dissipated from her now. However, the increased speed was still there she found as she saw Tidus charging another attack. With Ramza now nearer, she used Mental Code to increase both Ramza's and her magical attack and, more importantly right now, defense as she then started to move. Her body was still hurt pretty bad and she felt the impact from the beams of light hitting into her. She hoped Ramza knew in what great of a pain she was right now and thought his plan through, because she wasn't going to last another attack like this. Bringing both hands up, she focused on Dual Black Magic as she then fired both Thundaga and Blizzaga at Tidus. Actions 1. Used Curaga on Ramza. 2. Used Mental Code on her party to increase magical attack and defense for Ramza and Crowe. 3. used Dual Black Magic to fire both Thundaga and Blizzaga at Tidus.

His attempt to strike Ramza had met with success as his Shining Wave managed to make contact however his follow attack was skillfully countered. Zest was in a bad situation as the shield he tossed began to travel towards not Ramza but Tidus instead. Zest had to praise the fellow knight in regards to this action, the fact that he was able to position himself so that Tidus could take the hit was impressive, but Zest needed to act quick.
As the shield continued to head towards Tidus, Zest raised his hand waived it to the side “Saber!” Zest said as an aura of power began to coat the warrior of light. Crouching slightly he immediately kicked off the ground and dashed straight towards Ramza with great vigor. In this moment he chose to trust that Tidus would deal with the shield strike as he continued his own attack. Without his shield Zest begun to rely on his skill as a swordsman. The knight rose his hand and with it he held the hilt of his blade with both hands as he dashed towards Ramza.
It was while Ramza chose to focus on Tidus that Zest made his way towards the blond knight. Raising his sword he swung a downward slash in an attempt of striking Ramza, his strikes more powerful due to the usage of both hands. With the first strike at an end Zest immediately shifted his footing in a swift and quick movement as he then proceeded to slash horizontally as well. Actions:1. Zest uses Saber on himself 2. Zest dashes towards Ramza and slashes at him downards while holding his sword with both hands 3. Zest follows up with another slash this time horrizontally. Moves Used/Active: Saber A spell that can be cast by utilizing the giants glove. This spell is a spell of enhancement that increases the warriors strength (1 post duration, 3 post cooldown)
Moves on Cooldown: Protect An aura of light engulfs the Knight and strengthens his defense (1 post cooldown)
Shinning Wave The warrior of light immediately sticks his sword into the ground and immediately swings the sword upwards. Upon doing so pillars of light will burst out of the ground and head towards the enemy. (2 post cooldown)

Location: Disney Town Mood: Determined Status: Medium Injuries Ramza smiled in gratitude as Crowe directed her healing skill at him. She truly was a reliable partner, and her trust would not go to waste. As he felt his wounds healing and his energy returning in full, he gave it back immediately using Chant, sacrificing a portion of his own health to restore twice as much to Crowe, taking her out of the critical state she found herself in. Then, he waited as she attacked the blond man. Tidus was a threat that needed to be neutralized as soon as possible - Ramza was completely aware that the fight had not been good for them so far, but maybe they could turn it around with a good knock-out. Time was running out, so it was now or never. As such, once more, he would trade blood for opportunity, as he completely ignored Zest - something that he was sure would have consequences, which he was ready to embrace. Zest was very far away from the focus of the battle, which would give Ramza enough time to act before being interrupted by the brave knight. Crowe fired a powerful spell against Tidus. Slick as he was, Tidus would surely find a way to defend himself. That was when Ramza would act. Gathering his own magical power, Ramza got ready to utilize his final attack - the one that he couldn't successfully land on the previous combat. The air flickered with powerful energy as Ramza prepared to unleash his most powerful move. He would do it as soon as Tidus escaped/defended Crowe's spell or, if it hit, right after, when Tidus would still be flinching from the impact and pain. "ULTIMA!" He screamed, drawing power from his core, the move that he suffered so much to learn back in Ivalice, only accessible to those who traveled far into the path of a Squire - the ultimate power of an underdog, the table-turner of those in need! Ramza would bet this entire fight in this move - coupled with Tidus' previous injuries (and possibly Crowe's attack), the attack could easily spell the end for Tidus, if it hit. And naturally, Ramza was not going to just hope that it did. That's where his sacrifice was going to come from - he could hear Zest approaching, and he didn't care. Instead, he once again used Rock Throw as soon as Tidus tried to dodge or block Ultima. The impacts of the Rocks would cause Tidus to flinch or otherwise hesitate, and that would be his end. Ramza had only enough time to turn around and take Zest's attack head-on, instead of on his back. The air left his lungs with each powerful slash, and Ramza's blood spilled into the floor from a signifficant cut from the second one. However, when Zest looked back at Ramza, the blond knight was smiling. Blood, for opportunity.
SHOUT ON RAMZA: 1 MORE TURN
Summary: Ramza healed Crowe with Chant (Action 1), then unleashed Ultima on Tidus (Action 2), using Rock Throw right after to cancel Tidus' next evasive action.
EDIT OOC: I feel the need to call the attention of the judges to the fact that Tidus ignored my Rock Throw action twice (Last post and on the next), in which I stated I was going to use it to cancel his next actions (which I did in the fight against Alma and Lea), interpreting my move as a low-damage offensive one instead of the harassing/disrupting way I've been using it in the tournament, and stated clearly in my post. ✿ EDEL ✿

“Oh no,” Tidus said aloud as he could see what Crowe was doing. Magic attacks weren’t his forte and he certainly wasn’t the best at actually defending himself against them. Sure he could dodge and weave most attacks due to his speed, but magic had a different way of actually hitting than say a sword or any other physical attack. Still he had to think fast and he spotted Zest shield lying on the ground near him. He quickly grabbed it with his free hand and decided on a risky tactic. He needed to avoid as much damage as he could from magic and since he didn’t know which exact spells she would be using he decided to use the shield to stop three of the four possible elemental spells he knew existed from his fights with Lulu. He stopped moving for once and tossed his sword high into the air hoping that the water imbued into his sword would conduct any lighting that may be directed at him. He would of course duck down below Zest’s shield and use its sturdiness to block as much as the two spells as possible. When the lightening his sword he could feel bits and pieces of the element travel in the ground causing him to flinch a bit due to electrical current, but he wasn’t damaged too much. He could handle that, but then came the ice that made impact upon the shield. He could feel the cold race all around him and even saw his breath form from his mouth, but like before he wasn’t in too much pain. In fact the only true pain he suffered from the ice magic was the impact it made upon the shield. His teammate must have had really good defense to use this shield in battle normally and to get rid of it so constantly. Tidus was a bit impressed about this, but it was no time to ruminate on his thoughts as he needed to go on the offensive now. Tidus got up from his crouching position and that’s when he knew things would really be trouble for him. He could feel the energy flicking around the air and he quickly took a look at Ramza. He was casting something and if Tidus had to guess it wasn’t going to be pretty for the blonde swordsman. Acting as fast as his legs could take him he rushed to Crowe with Zest’s shield still in his hand. He abandoned his sword not looking for the blade. “I’m sorry Wakka,“ he said to himself as he felt bad for leaving the word his friend had given him so long ago. Tidus needed to do something quickly and searching for the sword would most likely cause him to lose the precious time he had. When he got close enough to Crowe he shouted, “We aren’t finished yet!” This would be a second use of his cheer ability in this battle and though he was a bit peeved to be using the same ability twice in a fight he felt it was necessary if they were to win. Strength coursing through his body Tidus used the shield to bash into Crow and attempted to push her into the air above him hoping to push her into the ultima attack that would be incoming his way. Everything would ride on the possibility of her getting hit by the attack. Even if the attack worked or not he decided to keep moving in case of any attacks that the two might send out for him. This turned out to be wise as he was targeted by Ramza’s rocks again, but due to the exhaustion of the fight he was hit by them. With his cheer ability activated though he wasn’t damaged by the attack, but he could feel something off and he knew if he was attacked again he might have a hard time defending against it. “I’m not out yet,” Tidus said panting slightly from the amount of energy he was spending. He wished he had Yuna’s curative abilities by his side at the moment. Actions:1. Tidus threw his sword in the air above him while crouching down with Zest shield above his head to defend against Blizagga. 2. Tidus used Cheer to raise his and Test strength and defense. (Raises party’s Strength by one tier and lowers incoming damage by one tier) 2. Used full slide to push Crowe into the air to take the hit of ultima. (Three hit attack that deals light damage and knocks opponent into the air causing aerial status) CD:Blitz Ace: 2 posts Hastega: 3 posts Energy Rain: 3 posts @crowe @zest Ramza Beoulve

◄ HAVEN'T YOU HEARD WHAT BECOMES OF CURIOUS MINDS? Feeling her wounds become healed, Crowe started to move back as her attacks would explode. Hopefully this would set Tidus off as he was dealing with the next assault, seeing Ramza get closer. When Tidus suddenly got closer towards her again, she cast immediately Aeroga. Not exactly at Tidus, but at the space between them before he would get closer. The explosion sent her flying back while hopefully it would stop him dead in his tracks to counter his movement. With some luck he'd be unable to get out of the Ultima from Ramza now. Now with some more distance, Crowe activated Magic Code to enhance her magical power and launched a Firaga at Tidus as well. Hoping the focus on Tidus would wear him out and take him out. Hopefully Ramza wasn't getting any trouble right now being between the two opponents. Actions 1. Used Aeroga as Tidus got closer to launch herself away and attempt to halt Tidus. 2. Used Magic Code on herself. 3. Used Firaga at Tidus.
