1st Tenkaichi Bending-Kai Preliminary Tournament- Fifth Match: Vermilion Emperor Kouzai Vs. Kyoko

“Hello folks, and welcome to the second annual Tenkaichi Bending-Kai Preliminary Tournament's Fifth Match!” The announcer said into his microphone, the noise blasting over the roaring crowd. The battle would take place in a circular Ba Sing Se arena, which had pools of water around the edges, as well as a pit of magma in the middle, which was surrounded by a pool of water. While there would normally be more tricks and traps set up, they were disabled for the preliminaries.

“Today, we'll be witnessing the fierce battle between Izanagi Ezofuji-no-Tsukuyomi and Kei Kanazaki. The gates will open on my mark. With the combatants set, and the battlefield ready for them, let's give them a warm welcome!”







 --------------------------------------------------------------

Fifth seed match, Vermilion Emperor Kouzai Versus Kyoko. Kouzai will have the honor of the first strike.

Izanagi awaited his opponent. Kai Kenezaki. A Dark Bender. Hmm, this would be fun. Izanagi had never fought a Dark Bender before, and he did await this opportunity. "You are an honourable opponent," smiled Izanagi with a bow to Kai, "No matter who wins, I wish this to be a good and venerable fight." Though, Izanagi was sure he would win, he had to be sure in himself of this was going to be a short match. He was going to start things off, and he had just the right moves planned to do it. Izanagi began to concentrate deeply on his bending. He pulled back his arms to his side, compressing flames as tightly as he could, and then shot a ball of white fire at his opponent. The shot propelled him back enough to make his skid on the ground and kick up dust. And he watched as his attack went towards his opponent. He called it, the Shooting Star.

Izanagi raised a shield of fire, but it was all too late. The force of the Tornado of Darkness sending him flying back into the wall. Izanagi felt his muscles strain and bruise as he made contact with the stone wall. It hurt. Izanagi stood up, his hair dangling down in front of his face. He chuckled, "I guess it's time to get serious." He stood up, and untied the strings that held his robes together. The gi fell open and revealed the center of his well-muscled body. Then he shrugged it off, "Damn thing only got in my way anyway," he smiled, "Come on then, let's get the fun started. Are you read?!" Izanagi roared the last part of his sentence with a wild enthusiasm about him. He was normally calm, but he was dealing with a cunning, and perhaps someone mad genius. Strength and strategy can't beat insanity, only crazy can be crazy, that was his strategy. Izanagi ran foward, using his flames to propel him forward in a fiery blast. He raised his fist, flames covering it, heading towards his opponent, Kai, with a wild ferocity. "HAVE A PARTY!" he roared, shooting towards his opponent, the match was heating up.

Kei was sent flying into the wall. He let out a wince and a groan as he stood up. He'd straighten his hat here before sending his arms in a waving frenzy. A surge of dark matter would build beneath his feet as he would run forward. He would then do a front-flip, sending this surge towards his opponent.

Izanagi raised a massive wall of white fire, blocking the attack and smothering it as he gave life to the wall. Well, not really life, but the wall collapsed as if it was solid. It wasn't, but that didn't let the audience stop awing over it. The dark technique was smothered, and with a gleam in his eyes he pulled the spreading flames in towards him. He collected them into another ball at his side, preparing a second Shooting Star. Or was he? He could already see Kai anticipating it. So, Izanagi spun clockwise, away from his opponent. Then, as he spun, let his leg send a burst of flame at his opponent's feat. As Izanagi completed his spin, he jumped in the air and shot a concentrated wave of flame at Kai, hoping that this one would connect. It wasn't a Shooting Star, but it was just as dangerous.
