The crossed paths

SFDFB 4/5: Kill a real witch

Medusa appeared behind them with a crazy look on her face and a creepy smile.

-Ara, ara, now I can train with kids and not with monsters.- she said while a black snake appeared on her mouth.

-DON'T CALL ME KID!- Shouted Tiger angrily. Medusa got into her "fighting pose"

-Let's dance, Tiger. I've heard that snakes and cats are the best dancers in the world.

-Slice and fart, Masamune!

Tiger charged against the witch and did lots of slices, but she dodged all of them.

-First, you're slow and your attacks are really predictible.

-Then, speed up!

Now his attacks were faster than before, and Medusa was suddenly cut on her shoulder and then in one of her knees.

-Oh, well, it's because of this that snakes has tails.

She used her tail to replace the leg that was cut, and before Tiger could charge again, she used her magic.

Nake snake cobra cobubra: Vector Plate!

The vector appeared just under Tiger, and it was pointing to the wall. He crashed with it. But, before Tiger could open his eyes again, Medusa got in front of him and kicked his stomach. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 hits and more. When he coughed blood, Medusa returned to her original place. She laughed.

-A human cannot defeat a witch!

-Shut up! Why our opponents always says "a human cannot defeat me"?! They always end dead!

-It won't be the same here, Tiger. Look.

Vector Plate Prison

More than 10 vectors appeared around Tiger and Medusa, and they were all pointing to Medusa.

-I won't let you escape, until I die or give up.

-Then I'll have to kill you... how nice.

-Tiger! Don't push yourself! We know you can do it!- shouted Julia from the other side of the vectors.

-... understood!

-Don't look away from your opponent- said Medusa before punching Tiger on his face.

-Kage Bunshin no Jutsu- he said smiling, while this Tiger disappeared.

-I see... a copy, huh?

Tiger got behind her and stabbed her stomach from her back, but she just smirked.

-False snake- she said smiling while she transformed into a black snake.

-Man, that was soo predictible.

Tiger turned around and sliced Masamune just in the right second to stop Medusa's attack. It was surely a strange battle. Nobody seemed to get weak or injured, they just kept battling.

Meanwhile, Nikora was watching the duel and looking at the others. Julia and Yukimura looked so weak... and Endou looked like a simple kid. Chikara would kill them with only one attack. But then, why were they in such a dangerous place? And where was Dragon?

Suddenly Medusa crashed with a wall and broke it. Tiger punched her.

-That... hurt... huh?

At the other side of the wall, only darkness could be seen. But you could heard screams and cries.

-Looks like we broke the wall of the secret room...

-What's the secret room?- asked Tiger.

-I don't know. Let's do this, man! We stop fighting for a while and go to see what's in that room!
