[Luke goes flying back. He hasn't been deflected like that since fighting Van, and that's saying something. But he's not easily knocked down, and only touches the snow for a moment before he's able to flip back and then land on his feet.

He doesn't take a moment to breathe, kind of afraid of what might happen if Zelos tries getting a spell off. So he charges in again, feinting at the last second. His right hand has a surprise-- a Raging Blast of fonons. JUST FOR YOU.]

[The feint it successful enough that he has to use his shield to block it instead of outright dodging. And the force of it still knocks him back some. However before he hits the ground he's able to flip himself and land on his feet.]

[He knows Luke will probably try to charge again. And since the kid seems not shy about using artes-]

[There's a glow of brown-orange before he slams his sword down into the ground, much like Luke did earlier in the fight. Except instead of sending up chunks, this seems to cause shockwaves in the earth itself as it ripples towards Luke. Grave Blade's gotten a bit stronger.]

[Haha, Luke really is Zelos nerfed.

As he starts to charge again, he finds the ground liquefying beneath his feet. Oh shit. He's caught right in the middle of that Grave Blade, but he hunkers down and guards himself. The barrier only softens the blow so much, but Luke stays on his feet.

He's a little scraped up now, but by no means is he ready to give up. He resumes chase, leaping and gaining some air. Kind of a foolish move, but with all his force behind it, Havoc Strike usually manages to hit at least once-- either with his foot or his sword.]

[Yeah going up into the air when fighting an angel is possibly the dumbest move you can make, but sure Luke. Go ahead and try]

[Zelos moves quickly yet again, out of the path of the Havoc Strike. And with another swipe of his sword, a large blast of wind hits luke from the side as he's still in the air- intent on throwing him off course and to the ground]

[Whoop. There he goes. But, like Zelos, Luke is used to fighting. Despite being knocked back, he doesn't spend a lot of time on the ground, though the cold snow makes him wish he'd worn a full set of gloves instead of just his fingerless ones. He rights himself once again and resumes the assault, this time not stopping for an arte-- only an onslaught of slashes, left, right, and left again.]

gmail i s2g stop hiding stuff

[And Zelos is ready for him. The regular onslaught of sword attacks seems to be doing better than artes. It's much harder to be left open when you're simply attacking compared to using those. And so no attack comes, but at the same time, Zelos seems to be matching each of the slashes- meeting them either with his sword and shield. It looks like he's certainly putting in effort! Luke is that good! But he's not struggling either. In fact on the whole his reflexes don't even seem human with how quickly he reacts to each slash.]

Not bad!

DAMN IT GMAIL

[chosenfake]

[He really isn't human. Luke should've known he'd be like this, considering he's seen his wings and all, but damn.]

You're not bad either!

[Luke is struggling to keep up, but he's not tired yet. This time, instead of trying to force him out of a parry with brute strength, he aims a foot toward Zelos' solar plexus.]
