Circe's Manor

[Circe]

Bullet Stone! *Circe dismisses the rock wall and sends a hail of mediumn-sized rocks flying at Callista.*

[AmbushCat]

Callista: *eyes widen* Crud!

*Callista raises her arms to protect her face, then raises one knee to let the armored portion of her leg protect her stomach. A number of rocks hit the areas that are unprotected, however, and she flinches as each one hits.*

CA: 330,000

[Circe]

*Circe glances at the HP counter.* Down 70,000. Not bad.

[AmbushCat]

*Frowning, Callista starts spinning rapidly on one foot. A short time later, she stops spinning---just long enough for people to note that her leg has caught on fire---and charges towards Circe*

CA: Diable Jambe...

[Circe]

*Circe summons up a wall of ice between herself and Callista.*

[AmbushCat]

*Callista channels all her power into her flaming leg, then leaps at the wall of ice foot-first...*

CA: Mouton Shot!

*...and smashes clear through it, her kick targeted at Circe's mid-section*

[Circe]

*CIrce hurriedly backs away from Callista.*

[AmbushCat]

*The flaming kick barely misses Circe. Not one to be deterred, Callista pivots on one hand and tries again, aiming for the same area.*

[Circe]

*Circe teleports about a foot back, putting her out of range.*

[AmbushCat]

*Growling with annoyance, Callista tries one last time to score a hit. Pushing herself off the ground with her hands, she rights herself and sends her blazing foot downwards in an axe kick.*

[Circe]

*Looks like the third time's the charm, as kick connects.*

[AmbushCat]

*Callista hops backwards a few meters after she lands the kick, her Diable Jambe powerup wearing off as the fire is extinguished.*

CI: 2,550,000

[Circe]

Now, it's my turn. Tornado Cutter! *CIrce thrusts her hands forward in a Hadoken-ish position, releasing a tornado on Callista.*

[AmbushCat]

Callista: If that name's any indication...move, girl, move!

*The shopfreak punches the ground, her muscles augmented by her costume. Boards and debris are sent flying upwards into the path of the Tornado Cutter.*

[Circe]

You'd better be willing to pay for that. *The debris is sucked into the tornado, possibly making it more painful when it hits, sending Callista flying against the wall, while small cuts appear on her body.*
