My, it appears quite a few people are feeling unwell these days.

[Not that Cecil himself sounds remotely unwell. In fact, he seems to be surprisingly cheerful today.]

I'm afraid I cannot help everyone with that. However, a small dinner for the whole family should definitely cheer a few people I know up, don't you agree? Please show up promptly. I'd rather not have to drag you back home if I can avoid it.

[And drag them back he will, if he has to.]

[[ooc: Repressed abandonment and betrayal issues -> full blown yandere clinginess. Tread carefully.]]

[Cecil starts approaching Kain once more, slowly and with his sword out. he doesn't want to attract the bees' attention just yet, but it'd be cruel ~~and cowardly~~ to just leave Kain there, out for blood or not.]

[Kain is busy trying to wave bees away with his spear and - OW THEY STUNG HIS CHIN.]

[Staying very far away from that spear, thank you very much. He needs to find a way to knock Kain out quick- owowow that was his hand, dammit. Back away once more.]

[Kain is still mostly busy swatting away ANGRY BEES, but eventually he returns to the battle at hand, and stabs at Cecil repeatedly.]

[That is not good at all for our dear paladin. He raises his shield as quickly as he can to block those attacks... Only to start punching at Kain's spear with the shield. Not that it actually does damage. To think that Yang and Ursula make it look so easy...]

[Kain tries to keep going, with a few bees still buzzing around him in anger- apparently he really got on their bad side. He smirks a little despite all the stinging pain he's been getting lately... maybe he's going to have that victory very soon. Yet again. If only he could talk right now, he'd like to be mocking his friend.]

[Of course, that smirk just manages to remind of a certain part of Kain that had been hoping to run him through with his spear, which reminds him of the reason why there were two Kains in the first place, which reminds him that Kain is a betrayer who wants to abandon him, which pisses him off. He finally starts genuinely attacking, with surprising fury.]

[...and Kain himself is very borderline on that darker self, not that he can really stop it with his mind so set on the fighting. All he can think of is winning this battle, overcoming Cecil at all costs. Proving himself stronger. He moves to block Cecil's incoming, smirking all the more when he realizes that Cecil isn't holding anything back. Just what he's always wanted. He stabs at him to counterattack.]

[Cecil only partially manages to dodge that one; he avoids being stabbed, but at the cost of a nasty slash on his sword arm. Not that it stops him. In fact, it makes him even angrier, leading to even more relentless attacks. He's aiming to hurt, by that point.]

[Yes, this is much more like it, and Kain keeps at it, countering his attacks with his own, but ending up taking a couple hits in the process himself. Which only pushes him on further.]

[It's lucky they're both wearing armor, really, because otherwise they might be pretty wounded by now. They're reasonably well-matched, and Cecil realizes that.

Which is why he suddenly uses Teleport, disappearing from view. From which direction will he attack next?]

[If there's one thing Kain hates the most in battle, it's Teleport. Yuber teleports. So there's a lot of viciousness to his random strikes of his spear, as he turns in all directions to try and locate Cecil...]

[Is he stabbing upwards? Because he might want to be stabbing upwards, right now.]

[Circling, circling, looking up!]

[And here is Cecil, pulling a Sephiroth with a greatsword instead of a katana. Thank goodness he's not very good at aiming or using gravity, really.]

[The lack of good aim is a relief, giving Kain just enough time to avoid impalement. He's used enough aerial attacks in that very same manner to be able to judge how to avoid them. Though it's a really close call all the same.]

[Cecil seems ever so slightly unbalanced as he lands, even if he raises his sword to attack once more. Teleporting up is now filed away as a bad idea in what little sane part of his mind remains. But that still leaves a few directions for later...]

[Kain is ready and moving to deal with that sword blow, bringing the pole of the spear to block it, before thrusting forth... this time adding some Filial Wind to boost his attack and attempt knocking Cecil back as he counters.]

[That wind has the desired effect, unbalancing Cecil. Which is why he teleports again. And again. And again. Each time in a completely different direction, barely allowing Kain a fraction of a second to see him.]

[Grrr that teleporting. Kain attempts to jump around and follow Cecil, jabbing often at the open air when the other vanishes.]

[After a few teleports, he starts staying in place slightly longer... But htat extra second comes with a sword jab each time. It seems he intends to tire Kain down and keep him on his toes, for now.]

[That's definitely having its intended effect, as Kain is getting vcery worn down by now. Not that it's stopping him yet. He keeps on countering Cecil's attacks with his own.]

[It's also having the unintended effect of tiring Cecil down, no thanks to his low MP reserves. Thus, the next time he finds himself behind Kain, he finally stop teleporting and starts up a true attack, instead of his previous quick jabs.]

[It's a relief that Cecil is no longer teleporting, but not that it helps too much at this rate. Kain is slowing rapidly, barely managing to keep himself going. But his insane determination keeps him going.]

[Kain has his insane determination; Cecil has his fear of being left alone. This fight won't reach a conclusion easily, tired or not.]
