[Jim vs. Shade #9]
Finally getting a grip on him, it continued on. It started pulling itself up across Jim's body, and wrapped itself around his torso and settled there. It sat there completely still, not even the slightest ripple going over its surface now.

(Toriji, how much shadow is in the arena?)

[About half The tall walls of the coliseum cast a large shadow.]
[Jim vs Shade #10]
Jim struggled in relative silence inside the blob. He couldn't really fight it seing as how his sword seemed to do no damage. he just continued to try to break the surface, but with no luck.
(C'mon ketaro... I think we can move on now...)

[Johnathon vs Seiji #7]
"So you entered the cloth because it seemed like the easiest choice?" Seiji asked with a scowl as he stepped back into the shadows, promptly disappearing. "That's borderline sacrilegious if you ask me ..."

((Hey, I'm just playing it through ^^. And atleast gave you a chance there. Officially, that was just its way of playing a prank on you )) [Jim vs. Shade #11] A sword, followed by an arm and then half a torso, suddenly burst out from its surface. Just as quickly as it had done this, the sword was coming down for a stab right through Jim's face.

[Jim vs Shade]
Finally a sword, something physical, something he could affect. His reflexes came back to him in a screeching head ache as he used his own sword to deflect the other. He rolled in stinctively, but he was still inside most of the blob. At least it wouldn't be a shut out he thought.

[Jim vs. Shade #13]
As Jim rolled backwards the rest of the blob jumped off him in the opposite direction and formed into the rest of a body in midair, doing a roll of its own as it landed. As it turned around, Jim was now looking at Jim. The blob had gone and transformed into a replica of him, it had even duplicated his sword apparently. "Ahahah, oh wow. That had to be one of the funniest reactions yet!" it said humorously in a soft voice.

[Johnathan vs. Sieji #8]
Johnathan blinked watching the man disappear into the shadows. When he heard sacriligious he just shrugged. "Never did have much faith." He looked around him, wondering where Seiji would strike from. Seeing as he dealt with the shadows to disappear, Johnathan had a good idea that staying near shadows was asking for trouble... But seeing as the priest was currently at the densest part of the shadows, he was in trouble.
Johnathan tensed for a minute as wind blew through the stage, reminding him of a Mexican standoff. He slid a foot back and crouched slightly, before going off at a sprint to a non shadowed side of the arena.

"Then that's even worse!" The shout came from ahead of him, where the boy had disappeared, but an instant later, that scythe came spinning through the air like some oversized, deadly discus, shooting toward him from behind.
Seiji had utilized his Shadow Step to move to a shadow behind him, but the priest had already started running, so instead of striking him in the back, the Persona User had been forced to use his weapon at a range.

[Johnathan vs Seiji #10]
When the whirling sound of the scythe flying reached his ears, the priests eyes widened momentarily, before trying to duck and move away from it. It was a good plan, but he still ended tripping up on the shaft of the weapon. With a slight "oof", he hit the ground in a bellyflop, after the failed roll. He rolled over and sat up after untangling himself. He grabbed the shaft, hoping he wouldn't get damaged from it popping out a secret blade or something, and used it to stand up. He made his way into the sunlight side of the arena, thankfully being an arms length away from where he fell, and turned around to look for the shadow walker. "I really wish I knew how to use this, but worse comes to worse I can beat you like it is a regular stick boy!" He called out, hoping to goad the (ex)soldier into making a mistake.

[Johnathon vs Seiji #11]
But Seiji stepped out of the shadows, chuckling darkly. As the shadows whirled around him, the scythe faded from Father Anderson's grip. "Don't be ridiculous!" Seiji's voice was abnormal, his own overlaid with a deep, sinister, mechanical echo. "It occurs to me I've yet to tell you what I am. Tell me, Father, do you even actually believe in a god? Because I do. But not just any god. If God exists, then he must be a God of Death!"
The shadows whipped up into a vicious twister about his form, obscuring him, and when it faded a moment later, Seiji was not the one standing there, but a terrific demon of black metal like some sort of heavily armored black knight, great bat wings spreading out from behind it. It held out its hand as the scythe reappeared there. "That is what I am. I am Deathscythe, the Reaper God!"

[Jim vs Shade #14]
As Jim rolled he shifted his momentum and kicked up to his feet and landed a few yards from what used to be a blob. "Hmmm. I see we have a shapeshifter. I've heard hollows can do things like that, but seeing as how I've never encountered one, I had no idea how to react." He pulled his sword up into a fighting stance. "Don't expect it to be that easy from here on."

[Jim vs. Shade #15]
He looked puzzled at the word 'Hollow', not quite understanding what Jim meant by that. Disregarding it then, Shade waved his new sword around, or rather Jim's sword really, getting a feel for it. "It's been awhile since I got to fight with one of these. Its so different from that last one I got to use, thinner. You sure this is a workable sword now?" He chuckled, moving to mirror Jim's stance. "I guess, you should attack first. I'm going to need some time to get used to this thing."

[Jim vs Shade #16]
"My pleasure." Jim charged straight at the shapeshifter as if he was to attack head on. He often used this to easily dispatch weaker, less intelligent enemies. He waited for the enemy to begin a response to the attack, then he would Flash Stepped behind and finished his swing.

((Heh, you spelled enemies wrong ;D ))
[Jim vs. Shade #17]
Shade didn't react to him, rather he seemed to be ignoring that Jim had just charged at him. "Aha! I remember, this is one of those falchions, right? Looks similar anyways," he thought outloud to himself. He absentmindedly swung the blade downward, ending the swing long before Jim had gotten within striking distance. "Huh."
