tempredmental: (Hanging On for Life)

[Evil Keith snarled as he spun to face Manabu again. It didn't take much to get Keith going, but he was fast in this form, chasing his 'prey' down. That said, he wasn't thinking clearly and, whereas he probably could have coated the ground in ice to gain an advantage, he didn't, just charging forward at full tilt, looking to use his increased size to just barrel his opponent down.]

[Manabu's only got a few free seconds to wrack his brain about this beast, and he can't help but think there's an air of familiarity in them that shouldn't be there? but he can't really-- OH SHIT NOPE NO MORE THINKING JUST RUNNING, this thing is FAST.

that dreadful awareness of space filling up behind him threatens to override Manabu's senses and just straight-up panic, but he manages to rein it in enough to bring his pistol close to his chest before he's tackled down. that way, in the midst of twisting and trying to break free, he can push the barrel and press it up against the flesh baring down on him and fire away.]

[Keith barely manages to grab Manabu's wrist and push before he fires, the bullet grazing Keith's arm. He shoved hard, making to twist the arm back and away from him in the hope that his opponent would drop the gun. If not, he would move to pin that hand against the ground before pulling back with his other for a hooked punch across the face.]

[it's not a real brawl if Manabu's not getting decked in the face, and yet every time it happens, he can't help but feel outrage like it's a brand new concept. he nearly bites down on his tongue when he grits his teeth and takes the hit. while the hand holding the pistol is captive, Manabu works to get his other hand free.

once he does, he brings it to Keith's face, heating up and igniting with searing heat.]

Get! OFF ME!
tempredmental: (Fight Me)

[The heat near his face triggered something, and Keith jumped back, releasing Manabu. He hesitated, his crossed in front of his face, hunched down, almost fighting himself for a moment before his temper spiked and he almost completely burst into flame himself.

It was just a primal roar before he charged in again, flames everywhere.]
siriusly: (ACTION YELL)

[personal profile] siriusly 2022-08-29 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[Manabu doesn't waste the chance to get back up when space is made to do so, and the heat of Keith's flames is at his back when it flares up. it just serves to spur him into moving again, his omen reappearing in a puff of steam to race ahead.]

Go, Magnet! Lamp! Lamp!

[because he needs to get the hell out of here once he's finished this merry chase away from populated streets.]

C'mon, ugly! This way!

[It was probably a good thing Keith wasn't going to remember Manabu calling him 'ugly' so many times.

But he definitely continued chasing him down. He pulled back one arm during his run at some point and hurled a fireball like a baseball towards Manabu's head. He might want to duck.]
siriusly: (actually that's not okay but uh)

[personal profile] siriusly 2022-08-31 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[real shame he's not looking behind him to know he's supposed to duck.]

GYAH--!

[Manabu staggers a few steps, flinching when fire bites at his neck and scalp. also a real shame he doesn't have his hunter's jacket on for that, but it's summer - it's too hot! so he'll just have to deal with the searing.

he hops a tilted, iron fence into an abandoned potter's field, relieved to see buildings spacing out as a sign of low population, but...that's less cover for him! he has to keep his eyes on the prize - namely, his dog banking out of the field and toward the dim glow of an incoming lantern. this emboldens him to whirl around and fire a few wild laser potshots before hopping the other side of the fence and veering down the street after Magnet.

with the lantern in sight, Manabu drops to a trot to turn back around and take a couple more precise shots, aiming for shoulders, for legs...]
tempredmental: (Rawr I'll Fight You!)

[Oh, look, Keith was chasing him on all fours now. He crashed through the dilapidated fence on one side of the field, but leapt over the other. It wasn't like a potter's field was going to have big fancy fences, anyway, especially not an abandoned one. Dodging the random potshots was easy, as they were badly aimed to begin with. The creature snarled.]

You cannot stop me!

[Keith's speed was unrelenting, and he kept up the full charge. When he saw the weapon aimed at him, he attempted to switch from being covered in flames to having icy armor. But ice doesn't work well against lasers, and it burned a hole through the armor enough that Keith actually yelped and stopped advancing for the moment, changing his tactic from a full charge to something more serpentine in approach. He zig-zagged his way closer, making himself harder to hit. And then the Evil, fully aware of Keith's powers, tapped into something Keith hadn't learned he could do, yet.

He crackled with electricity for a mere second before shooting bolts at Manabu.

There was still some distance between them, though. If Manabu were to run, he'd make the lamp before Keith...]

[it can talk?!

...wait. that voice...is he crazy, or is there something familiar about--

NOPE NEVER MIND THINK ABOUT IT LATER. Magnet's sharp, urgent barking, coupled with Keith's supernatural speed jolts Manabu out of the shock of the voice; he chances a couple more shots before giving that up, turning and racing for the lamp.

anywhere but here is good, he's thinking, but that's likely not going to get him anywhere at all. so where--]

Willful Machine! [sure! that one! he shouts it just as he makes a leaping dive and catch the lamppost by the hand and hug close to it, bracing himself for any parting-gift swipes before the fog can fully envelop and spirit him a way.]

[Surprise! Granted, whatever vocabulary Keith had left at this point was pretty limited, so it was doubtful that he was going to have a full-on conversation with Manabu while stuck like this.

For a moment, he thought he had him... his quarry had fallen, curling up in a ball on the ground. He reeled back, ready to throw a long javelin-like icicle... the fog began to gather, and Keith had a feeling as to what that meant. He snarled in anger. No! No! He couldn't let him get away! He flung the ice at the last possible second...

He'd never know if it actually made contact. He roared in frustration as Manabu disappeared.]
