Thread: this town has no room for you
Post: RE: this town has no room for you
| The refusal earns a raised eyebrow, the move forward even more so. Shaju stands like a marble statue in the rain, a silent monolith for Sunjata to throw himself against. The blade clatters to the wet ... |

Post: RE: this town has no room for you
| They exchange blows, a few nicks here, a few bruises there, and the rain increases in intensity. It hammers around them, muting the sound of the fight, muffling the sound of onlookers (if, indeed, the... |

Post: RE: this town has no room for you
| They are both still breathing, and if anything the anger is welcome. One would swear Shaju was smiling, but that's between he and Sunjata right now. So up they come again, pacing and circling. The rai... |

Post: RE: this town has no room for you
| The panther is a disappointment rather than a surprise, and the steel that shoots through eyes already like mercury makes that much very clear. Sunjata has chosen to debase himself further, though it ... |

| Circle, launch, circle, react. The boy dances a predictable dance, and his movements are near panicked in their clumsiness. Violence borne out of fear is never as effective as violence whose seeds wer... |

Thread: on the heels of high tide
Post: RE: on the heels of high tide
| The curse, like the disrespect, is taken with the sort of infuriating indifference of the overly confident. Shaju pauses just beyond Nate's peripheral vision, in such a way that the Ascended will have... |

Post: RE: this town has no room for you
| Dawn breaks.
The gauntlet has been thrown.
And Shaju approaches, as he has done twice so far in his life, to face his Trial. To win at all costs. Does he bring a gun to this knife fight, this time? ... |

He has chosen this place especially for Nate; a natural cavern which floods with every rise and fall of the tide, a cavern which has crack... |

Thread: Unexplain the Unforgivable
Post: RE: Unexplain the Unforgivable

Thread: don't look back

Thread: Unexplain the Unforgivable
Post: RE: Unexplain the Unforgivable
| Sorry Nate.
Not tonight, you're not.
It's entirely by chance that Shaju spots his opportunity earlier than planned. Because this has always been the plan, you understand, and were it not for luck an... |

Or perhaps it's just a second's effort, snatched in a second too opportune to pass up.
