Aruna

What?

Aruna stopped chanting mid spell, realizing he was 100% serious.  Then, she continued chanting just for good measure, finally finishing her spell and laying the area with portals.  But your magic and mine, its similar but different.  Besides... you understand the light about as much as I do, that's what I need to learn.

Perhaps she should have not been so quick to turn down that human from before.  Even a human mage could teach something.

Zeke

Nope. DARKNESS

If she were green as a grasshopper against him, that might work. But he already faced Aruna twice, that current timing was second to him. The moment before the spell finished, his eye glowed black. Darkness flared and absorbed the foundations of that spell. Zeke snuffed it out. It never even saw the light of day... how sad.

Don't try to fool an old man with the same tricks. As she was right now, she was worthless.

Not at all. I understand just fine. That's a grace, right?

yinsukin:
Aruna

"Yeah..."

Truthfully, she wouldn't have remembered to call it that, but the second he used that term, that voice flashed into her mind.  It was a grace, whatever that meant.  "And what do you know about it?"

Weird, she had never seen him use that power.

Kotomine_Rin:
Zeke

I know enough. I'm the original prototype after all. He cracked his neck and stretched, grinning wildly at her. His words were utterly insane, in fact just talking about that was insane in the first place. But it made sense. After all, before God created anything, there was nothing. Whatever Zeke was, it predated concepts such as heaven or hell.

Whatever connection he had to it, it must have been why her grace throbbed so much back when they both went all out.

Hmm... it smells familiar too... oh, don't tell me! Did you steal it from that old stickler? Hmmmm... He scratched his head and looked away, trying to remember. It was almost comical, he looked like he was full of openings and his guard was as low as it got.

Ma... Ma... Mael! That's right! He paused. When he glanced back at Aruna, his grin was as wild as the worst of demons. It was a cruel grin. You killed him like a dog, didn'tcha?

yinsukin:
Aruna

Aruna's eyes turned bright red, glaring at him from the ground.  Then, it subsided, before turning her head away and said, "Yeah...  I did.  This power is mine now, but I don't know how to use it."

At last, she returned her gaze to him.  "So then prove it.  What can I do with this?"
