Battle Style: Freestyle
Story Advantage: None
Turns of battle: 5 Turns (Twin, if you want longer or shorter, lemme know)
Judge: Needed
Rave sighed as he sat in the abandoned Neo-Arcadian Floating Tower. It had been forever since he'd seen Twin, the last time they met was with HighMax, when Twin had gone ballistic with the Juuka power in him... He hoped Twin had chilled some, he was looking forward to a reunion.

*Twin trudges aimlessly into the Neo-Arcadian tower, twirling one of his busters in his hand. It had been forever since he'd stayed here last...training with Inertia wasn't the most pleasant of memories. He shivered at the emptiness of the place that had once thrived with live. But when he really thought about it, Neo Arcadia didn't stand much of a chance to begin with. All of its members were rogues, bent on doing things their own way. It was like a clubhouse for powerhouses, and to many of them there was no point to sitting around in a headquarters all day long. As Twin passes through the cafeteria, he steps on a crumpled up poster, dusted with age. Displayed on the poster is a chibi form of Inertia with his hands outstretched over all of Gigamerica. It reads "All your base r belong to us" He didn't know whether to laugh or sigh, what a goof...Kicking the poster out of his way, he came across an open door. Was someone here? Walking inside, Twin finds his friend Rave sitting there and grins. It had indeed been along time since he'd seen anyone other than Sonatia or Tomonori*
Twin.EXE: Rave?

The Navi looked over at Twin as he entered the open door, waving halfheartedly, then looking up as he recognized the figure he'd thought he'd might never see again...
Rave.EXE: Twin...
He sighed and leaned back, staring up at the ceiling. They were in one of the panel rooms, the ones that shifted location when Inertia willed it. Now that the master was no more, the building had stilled its wildness, aligning to a more uniform appearance, with the panel rooms fading to nothingness. The Ice room, the Ocean room... All had gone to the same uniform appearance, Rave had only recognized this one because... It was his own.
Rave.EXE: This place holds little meaning to this one yet holds so much.
He raised his head up and looked Twin in the eyes, and Twin could see Rave's light hair framing his face - one of the rare instances the Navi had ever removed his helm. It lay to the side, standing upright. Rave hadn't wagered that anyone would be here, but since Twin had come...
Rave.EXE: ...So what brings you to this lost tower of memories?
(OOC: Battle can start on my next post if you wish, or you can start, or whatever, it's all good.)

*Twin grinned and felt somewhat relieved. He hadn't expected to meet anyone here, he'd expected to be alone again. It was difficult for him to explain his need to depart at times...to just leave and focus on his life. It was as if getting away from everyone else helped him get away from himself...as if he were looking down at himself from afar. It was here that he could best judge, best decide which choices to make and who they would effect. The great consequence to this was, of course, that he hurt others whenever he fled so unannounced. But seeing Rave pleased him to some extent, the base seemed less empty like this.*
Twin.EXE: Actually, I came to visit my old floor. I thought about getting some training in since...well, you know what happened.
*Twin shuddered at the thought of his last encounter with a large group of navis. He had arrogantly stood in front of everyone he trusted, against a navi he stood no chance in defeating. Twin reached a hand to his sandy brown hair and messed it somewhat, sighing as he did so.*
Twin.EXE: I'll have you know I can control it now...to a degree. Greiga doesn't own me completely. I'd also like to apologize for how I spoke to you last. I guess my entire point in coming here was to train, to prevent something like that from happening again. I can't rely on Sonatia to save me everytime I lose my grip.
(OOC: You can start the battle with your next post)

(OOC: Sorry this has taken so long. >_< And this is a stretch for Rave's character SOOOO...
<<Battle Start!>>
Rave.EXE: It pained this one to have to step down like that to Highmax, but sometimes the old adage "Discretion is the better part of valor" holds true, as it did then.
To be destroyed then meant everything. The WWW would have attempted on their own to defeat Eon. They may not have been defeated by Eon but could they have stopped Revelation Forte? Rave was glad they didn't have to find out that answer.
Rave.EXE: It is the same for this one and Suki in a sense. This one defeated his own inner demon, you can do the same. You came here to train...
Quickly Rave's hand snapped up, firing a few icicles at short range to spring Twin away from him as he regained his feet. As the third icicle left his hand, the hand returned to near his hip as a flash came from that area, ice forming and strengthening into a longsword. He swung the yet-forming sword as if drawing a sword from its sheath, sending a shockwave through the air at Twin. If Twin wanted to train...
Rave.EXE: Then this one would see how much you have improved.[/color]

(OOC:Funny story, I typed almost my entire response to this last night. Unfortunately, I went to change the batteries in my keyboard and ended up holding down backspace before I was done with the post. -_-;)
*As Rave fires the icicles, Twin leaps back and almost effortlessly moves out of the line of fire. The last icicle flies a mere centimeter from his head, causing the hair on the right side of Twin's face to blow around. Moments later the icicle shatters against the wall behind him. Twin wasn't the least bit relieved by this manuever, however. He understood that Rave was only testing him, and the second attack wouldn't be as easily avoided. Quickly regaining his composure, Twin flicks both of his arms out at a 45 degree angle from his body. It was here that he was lucky his blades weren't sheathed, because he had only miliseconds before Rave would make his next attack. Two short, silver blades slide from the interior of wrist guards that ran the length of Twin's forearm. Not taking his eyes off of Rave for a second, Twin moves his arms up into an "X" formation for defense, but still takes the brunt of the shockwave. Overpowered, he slides into the wall behind him where the glass had shattered only seconds before. He was a reconaissance type, but he already had reason to believe that Rave may be faster. It would be very foolish of him to let his guard down now.*
Twin.EXE: Inner demons...? What plagued you Rave?
*Not waiting long for the answer, Twin unholsters two busters from either side of his belt and takes aim at Rave, firing a flurry of bullets in his direction. Moments before they reach Rave, however, the outercovering of the bullets explode and each one breaks into three small thorns, razor sharp at the point. Twin uses the preceding attack as decoy, and rapidly moves to position himself above Rave. He pulls his legs together and crosses his arms about his chest, diving towards the ground at equal speed. Before he reaches Rave's position, he uncrosses his arms and brings the two blades down, as if to strike Rave in each of his shoulder blades.*

Rave snapped up his empty hand as Twin's buster was raised in his, and launched his own icicles, as if he was firing off machine gun shots, picking off some of the thorny bullets before they even reached him; the ones that he missed he sprang to the side to avoid, somersaulting as he came to his feet, raising the blade hand up, blade angled down his back, meeting Twin's blades. He pushed up on his sword against Twin's, sending him back into the wall, and whirling, he slashed at Twin across the chest - the shockwave this time was at point-blank range.

*"Up against a wall" was beginning to have a very definition for Twin. He struck it a second time, moving quickly before Rave's counterattack. A bright emerald aura surrounded him quickly, shattering with the shockwaves attack, but saving Twin a decent amount of damage from the attack. Pushing off of the wall behind him, Twin dives low to the ground, swinging one leg in a complete semicircle to meet directly with Rave's face. Using the kick as a stall for time, Twin dashes back towards the center of the room and turns to face Rave again. A second wave of energy, similiar in color to the aura, surrounds Twin's blades as he strikes them into the ground. The force of the impact sends two disks of bright gold energy racing towards Rave*

Rave knelt as he knocked Twin's leg away from him with his arm, diverolling away from the disks as the raced past him, exploding into the wall. He panted as he regained his knee, looking out towards Twin. He raised his arm and with a sharp grunt of exertion threw his longsword, spreading the fingers on his hand quickly, and moments after the sword left his hand bullet after bullet after bullet of pure water energy lanced out. His left arm doing the firing, his right arm began to raise above his head. The stream of bullets stopped as his water energy went to swirling around him, racing to his extended hand as it formed into a large globe. Two more split off this one, as Rave made a sharp throwing motion and the first globe streaked towards Twin, the other two waiting for his command...[/i][/i][/color]

*Twin raises his own blades to knock Rave's longsword away from him. The sword spiraled rapidly to Twin's right, crashing into the ground and diverting its energy to the wall adjacent. Twin took a deep breath and pressed his hands into the ground, focusing completely on his untapped skills. He had to thank Rondo for this one, though he would never get the chance to do so. The floor in front of Twin seemed to distort, as if the seems of its physical state were being broken down and recreated by the magick energy flowing from Twin's palms. In moments a torrent of water was flowing in front of Twin, absorbing Rave's shots of water. He looked up from the spell just in time to see the globe hurled towards him and rolled quickly to the side. He managed to avoid the brute force of the attack, but was struck pretty hard in the shoulder. The forest navi crouched and took a minute to regain his breath, surrounding both of his busters with energy simultaneously. He merged the two together, forming a long cannon that was pointed towards Rave, collecting more power at the end of its barrel. Twin kept his aim steady, and his eyes focused on the two other globes of water that were at Rave's disposal*

It wasn't the first time Rave had stared down the barrel of a gun, but it was the first time in a while he'd done so literally. Diving to the side, he slung out his hand and cut the air towards Twin, firing off another ice cutter as he regained his feet. His left hand was beginning to glow dimly, summoning a skill to mind, knowing what Twin intended with that gun - it wasn't entirely rocket science. His right hand shot towards the ground, and a quick rolling mist of ice began to form in the area, over the floor, intent on freezing the forest Navi in place, but his eyes stayed locked on Twin, almost daring him to pull that trigger as his fist clenched, ready to use that ability he'd prepared. The globes of water above started to freeze with the room's temperature, but didn't move from their spots.
