It was only the second time he'd stepped into that arena, but he already hated the place like it was a second home. This time will be better... He reminded himself. No blinding lights, and he was armed to the teeth. A sword strapped to his hip, a dagger just above his knee on a pair of black jeans. A stave clipped to his back, and hidden is his long red coat was a pair of pistols. Just in case. He also wore a white shirt, untucked of course. A few mobility stretches, as always, and he was ready to face whatever was going to come out of those doors. He punched the air playfully. He didn't really expect to be punching anything is the fight, but then, he wasn't really expecting anything. "Bring it." He whispered to himself.

Angelus walked into the arena for his third time. The surroundings seemed to have changed since his last battle. He scratched his arm and stuck his finger through the hole in his sleeve where Ithilwen's sais had pierced them.
He took and quick glance over to his opponent who had also just entered the room. He looked at this student who he had never seen before. There were weapons all over this boy, in every place possible. "Trying to compensate for something?" Angelus yelled over to the boy, "or are you trying to hide something?" With a little swipe of his hands, Angelus summoned a little air current that lifted Pen's red cloak. Angelus saw the pistols. "Wow boy! You are really trying to compensate for something."

"Yow, a fiesty one." Pen grinned "And I can perform just fine, thanks." His right hand moved between each weapon, slowly, floating over each one. Except the pistols, it was only a friendly fight in the end. "Which one is it gonna be?" He called playfully. "Oh! I know, this one!" His right hand touched the dagger hilt, but instead of drawing it he quickly pulled his left hand into a fist. Opening it up quickly, and showing the palm to Angelus, he shot out a single ball of fire. Pendragon had thought about hiding his power over fire, just like the last fight, but decided against it.

"Woh" Angelus yelled. He had not idea what powers Pen possessed and was caught off guard by a sudden fireball flying at him. Angelus punched the air in front of him, throwing an air current at the fireball. The fireball split into many and they still came at Angelus, singing some of his clothes and burning through some of it.
"So fire is your power?" Angelus asked even though it was very clear that he knew the answer. "Well, air is mine. This shall be interesting." Angelus reached behind him and grabbed his staff and pulled it in front of him in a battle-ready stance.

"I know a few other tricks too." Pendragon called back, drawing his stave from his back. He cast another fireball, only this time bigger, it stayed in place in front of him. He spun his stave round quickly, calling on it's enchantment to summon a blast of air. The gust pushed forward the fire, creating and almost dragon like flame. Pendragon kept summoning up more fire, keeping it going.

Angelus ran quickly around the arena as the fireballs came flying at him. Some caught the end of his shirt and burnt through the threads. Angelus soon stood with no shirt on because most of his shirt was burnt off. There were only some loose pieces of his shirt hanging off of his shoulders.
There were still some raging fireballs flying at him and he needed to think of a way to block the attack. He whipped out his staff and began to spin it rapidly. he was able to deflect many of the fireballs, but the heat was still getting through the Angelus and the high temperatures were making him very, very tired.

Pendragon sent three more fireballs flying at Angelus, they were only covering fire though. Pen followed behind them, crossing the space between them in a matter of seconds. The stave was held high above his head, but he quickly dived down on the ground. He flipped the stave out to the side the second he passed Angelus, going under his foes staff and straight for his ankles.

Angelus prepared to block the fireballs that were hurtling at him. He then glimpsed a figure running at him. It was Pen! He tried to block the attack, but Pen was too quick for him. Before he knew it, Pen had made contact with his ankles and Angelus had lost his balance. Using his agility, though, he turned his fall into a front flip. he landed stealthily and ran at the fireballs that were still coming at him. He launched himself straight between them.
He held his hands as though he was praying. When he was bout 2 feet in front of the fireballs, he spread his hands out, sending the fireballs to either side of the arena.
He landed and turned. Pen was just turning himself around to looks at Angelus. He griped his staff and threw a hung blast of wind at Pen.

The attack had been a success, but Pen had lost his stave in the process. It lay in the floor between them know, the only thing which could have stopped the latest wind blast. Still on the floor, but now facing Angelus, Pendragon drew both Pistols. He fired several shots, all aimed for the staff. It was a seriously bad idea, the wind force pulled them all back towards Pen. Luckily, he wasn't hit. The wind still sent him into the nearest wall, however. He breathed heavily, gathering energy. His eyes seemed to glow even brighter than before, if that was possible. Without putting his hands down, he got to his feet. Almost as if his whole body just tilted upright. He extended his arms to either side, palms glowing red.

"Oh no you don't," Angelus yelled from across the room. He did not want anymore fireballs flying at him in the near future. He swung both of his hands forward (like arm circles) and summoning two very thin gusts of wind. They were aimed at both of Pen's hands in an attempt to stop his attack.

Pendragon swung one arm up, and the other down. Still in line, his palms began to grow hotter. He breathed even more heavily, taking in as much air as possible. "Fire's a funny thing. Air can take it out." His hands were almost pulsating in the heat. "But it can also make it stronger."

Angelus realized that his attack was easily avoided by Pen. He then ran forward, aided by a little gust of wind, with his staff in his right han ready to attack.

Pendragon yelled, a use of oxygen he knew he'd regret later. He threw both hands forward, creating a wave of fire. It was headed towards Angelus, but that was the least of his troubles. Following the wave, Pen sent out heat. Lots, and lots of heat. So much so, that he burned all of the oxygen in the room. He didn't know if Angelus could create wind, or just manipulate the air. If it was the latter, he was in for some trouble. If it was the former, then Pen was going to be the one feeling the heat.

((Angelus can manipulate the air...I just wanted to clear it up.))
Angelus raised his hands in from of him as if if he was pushing against an invisible wall. He need to stop this wall of fire coming towards him. The wave got closer and closer and the pain Angelus felt trying to stop it got worse and worse. Eventually, he felt that he had control of the fire. He thruster his hands farther out in front of him, stopping the fire. The heat from the fire, though, continued forth and Angelus felt it a few seconds later.
Angelus lost his breath as the heat took away the oxygen in the room. He held his breath, but not being able to breath made his powers weaken. The fire began to creep closer, but Angelus till had some control. Angelus pulled one hand back to his mouth and created a small air pocket to replenish his oxygen supply. He put his hand back. He then split his hands apart and with this movement, the fire wall split as well. He pulled them to either side of the arena. He then brought the fire closer to him. He played with the streams of fire and let them twist their ways around his body.
He then threw his fists forward. The fire rocketed forward towards to opponent. As the two columns of fire went towards Pen, Angelus opened his hands and imitated what Pen had done before. The columns of fire combined to make one big fire phoenix.

Angelus was breathing, Pendragon had screwed up and now he was the one holding his breath. He dived forward quickly, scooping up his stave, and darting back as the pheonix appeared. He twirled it quickly, restoring air to the room. He had a bigger problem now, the fire pheonix. He crouched down low and eyed the beast, though not taking his focus completly off Angelus. Two ways to tackle this. He decided Either dive pasted the fire, and take out Angelus. Hopefully, the pheonix will go down with him. Or, waste energy on the beast first, to make Ang and easier target.
