So far Koorittou's plan had worked flawlessly. He was a master in the art of causing anger and frustration in his opponents. Largely due to his incredible speed.
'This one has been hard to frustrate so far...' Koorittou thought to himself 'maybe theres some truth in her claim to have reached the highest state of calm.'
" So Serendice, shall we continue this little romp through a field of daisies, or are we ready to retire?' Koorittou said, his ice blue eyes glistening in the high noon sun.
"Personally, I would like to continue this battle very much. You are a very worthy and...." Koorittou paused as he again relaized Serendice's great beauty, even if she was trying to kill him. "um..worthy and strong opponent."
With this, Koorittou began to power up what appeared to be his ice-covered ki attack. Serendice braced herself and awaited the apparent attack, but it didn't come. Instead, Koorittou took the ball of ice and crushed it in his hands, causing it to splinter into long sharp shards.
Serendice looked on with a confused look on her beautiful face, as she wondered what Koorittou was up to. She didn't have to wait long for an answer. Koorittou took the ice shards and divided them equally, holding them in either hand, and began to throw them at Serendice, using the shards as shirukens.
A surprised Serendice had a hard time dodging the onslaught of the ice shards, and was struck by many of them on the sides of her arms and legs, tearing her chimise and pants slightly. None of the wounds were even close to being fatal and they bled only a little, but the bitter sting of coldness eminated from every wound that covered her body.
'Good' Koorittou thought to himeself 'Damage done but nothing fatal.'
Koorittou again took up a fighting stance and awaited Serendice's next attack, with a slight smile on his face and his blue eyes still shining with the noon sun.
