Characters: Saïx and Link
Content: More experimentation.
Setting: Somewhere
Time: Somewhen
Warnings: None, yet.

Once again, it was time to let the darker side of the moon show its face to the world. This time, however, the prospects looked far more intriguing - this particular subject was closer to what he might call a worthy opponent. A hero, even a trapped one, should be far less naïve than the last subject.

Yes, this would be well worth the time. A hero caged was hardly something one saw everyday, after all. Perhaps he could even manage to enjoy this, or as much as he was able to.

Link jumped easily over the blade, using its broad flat surface to tap off into a second jump. This one carried him in a flip over Saix's head, even as the blade of his knife began to glow an ominous blue.

Landing in a crouch facing away from Saix, Link rolled forward to escape the reach of the blue-haired man's sword. His blade now glowed red, and flames danced around its surface - a sign that the magic was set. With a battle yell, Link broke the first law of bladed combat and threw his knife at Saix. He hoped the man would try to parry it.

If he did, he was in for a fiery surprise, for the corona of energy would explode on contact with anything...

Rather unsurprisingly, Saïx did indeed block the incoming blade, quite unaware of what was in store. Naturally, the resultant explosion took him rather by surprise.

Not long thereafter, however, he was once again heading back into the fray, rage glinting dangerously in his eyes as his sword swung in once again.
