Turn 6:  Pain.

Driver raises his hand, and covers the part of the cracked headgear.

Driver: [Dammit, it's too soon to lose it. I guess if i reach the final phases I wouldn't mind it getting destroyed... but now not, not yet!]

Sho: What's the deal? Are you so afraid of revealing your identinty, Driver?

Driver: Trust me, dude. It's for the best this way.

Driver moves his arm around the helmet, and with that stroke he uses his Ten: Create to recreate the missing part. That small ammount of time however was enough for Sho and Ayane.

'''- Oni-chan... You saw that gaze too, right? He... didn't seem like a bad guy to me.'''

'''- I think he's a decent guy too... But that changes nothing. We have to advance, to make our way towards our future.'''

'''- So how do we do it? '''

 - We keep pushing. '''

Sho takes the initiative, and charges at his opponent. The man readies himself, but he barely has time to react.

Driver creates a plate on his left hand, and uses it to block Sho's attack. His left straight however, enchanced by Ayane's powers was quite destructive, resulting in the Shield breaking into pieces.

Driver goes on the offensive. He generates two daggers and twists them a few times around his palms before using them on Sho. He tries  to stab, slash, penetrate and decapitate Sho with his amazing works of daggers, and manages to inflict a few new scratches on his opponent.

Sho feels the burning of the scratches which is amplified due to the nature of the energy blades. Driver lifts his hand up, ready to bring it down, having found and opening in Sho's defense.

Driver drops both daggers, loses his balance on his skates and falls on the ground.

(Wind Dragon's Dizziness)

Driver realizes that Ayane's Ten was at play here, and he tries to stand up, but doens't manage to.

Driver: I think I might invest in some Ku passive soon.

Driver uses his own Ten's passive to achieve some control over his own brain, at the expense of his own Blade Works' drive. Because of this, the aura that was covering the arena got a little smaller, not covering the outer edges of the arena now.

'''- He used his own Ten's passive to partially protect himself against my powers. I can still attack him, but at least he can stand now. '''

'''- I see... But did you notice? The Arena Works got smaller.'''

'''- Yes... I think it did'''

Driver: I can see it again, you're spacing out. Let me guess, you're trying to understand what happened. Let me spare you the effort.

It's all about cubic meters.

Both twins, as well as the crowd seems suprised by the statement.

Driver: My Blade works can only generate stuff that covers cubic meters up until a certain point. This is the drawback of my Arena Works, and this is also why I haven't created anything the the Greatsword ever since I used the Drive.

Sho: That's why you also closed some weapons to create others...

Driver: Exacly.

So now that you can focus on our fight again... I'd like your full attention.

Driver gets very low, almost as if he was going to do some push-ups. He only keeps his Arena and Skate works active, while also creative a new pair of Skate works on his hands.

Driver almost dissapears from Sho and Ayane's line of sight. He reapears behind Sho, and standing on his legs, tries to slash Sho with the ice skate-like blades on his hands. Sho blocks the incoming strikes, being used to blocking strikes from a much more powerfull sword fighter.

Driver swings his left hand's blade one last time, and after it misses, he raises his right leg, trying to cut Sho with the blade.

Keeping up with Sho while also trying to block Ayane's powers proves a little too challenging for Driver, but he manages.

He places his left hand on the ground, and as his right kick is still mid-air, he raises his other leg, swinging it at Sho with force.

Sho didn't see it coming, and gets a new wound on his forearm. Driver is standing on his two hands now, and is rotating, creating a whirlwind of strikes with his legs.

Sho thinks he has it under control, but Driver suprises him. As he is still spinning, he generates a small edged object exacly were his leg would soon be. He hits it with force, and launches it at Sho.

The object impales Sho, who finally gives in. The swiftly rotating aura getting stuck inside his shoulder burns his muscles, and he totally loses his cool, falling on one knee. Driver stops the move, and lands on his feet again, making the skates on his arms dissapear.

Ayane, seeing her brother like this, shows a side of her personality she rarely does...

She appears behind Driver with shadowed eyes, and some wind gathers around her fist that was covered in a purple aura.

Driver appaers infront of the girl, really calm. With a simple hand movement he pushes the girl's arm away. She looks at him for a second, and without hesitation tries to punch him in the face.

Driver dodges, and hesitates again. He find the courage though, and raises his fist. No aura on it whatsoever, not even his Chi aura.

Driver starts moving his arm, but suddenly feels cold. He can feel darkness behind him.

A hand placed on his shoulder... And a whisper.

'''Touch her with your stained fists... And I will murder you.'''
