The hunt for Tia

As Tia raced towards Scarlet she saw her opponents attack come racing towards her and Tia had to quick move to the side causing her to crash into the ground. Tia groaned as she slowly stood up as she wasn't ready for her opponent to attack her in the air "You will leave even if i have to drag your beaten body out myself." Tia said as she tried to sound tough but she afte that crash and seeing some of Scarlet's power she didn't know if she could defeat her mysterious opponent. However, Tia wouldn't just give up as she would breathe more cold air at Scarlet to try and freeze the girl again.

Scarlet couldn't help but look on at Tia as the girl dropped down onto the ground and fell down like she did, the beautiful red hair of the witch began to flutter in the wind that was coming from the dragon girl who was blowing cold breath at her. Scarlet would quickly try and move one of her missiles would move in front of her and scroll like text would expand around her as a sort of bubble of magical text.

It began to freeze as Scarlet would then try and jump back and avoid the girl's breath, because soon enough the shield that she made would start to break from the cold. " Wow...scary." Scarlet let out as she would then fire off her second missile towards Tia's body in attempt to hit her with an arcane bolt of energy, and as she did the two missiles would reform above her.

Tia saw Scarlet put up a shield but she knew it wouldn't last long against her breathe but then Tia was forced to take flight to avoid the missile Scarlet shot at her. Tia wouldn't relent as she would fly towards Scarlet again this time however she tried to fly behind her opponent and grab the girls arms. "Time for you to freeze." Tia would say as she would try to breathe her breathe down Scarlet's back to begin to freeze the girl "You should have left when i gave you the chance." Tia would say as she would also try to wrap her wings around Scarlet to prevent her from running away.

Scarlet gritted her teeth a bit as Tia decided to fly away from her which simply lead to Scarlet's magic missing it's mark, which wasn't something that she enjoyed that much but it wasn't like she had a choice about it. All that she could do was to remake her missile and keep firing at Tia, but it seemed as Tia had other plans than that as she soon went in behind Scarlet. The Dragon girl was quite fast in the air and with that Scarlet knew she had to act quickly, as Tia grabbed a hold of her arms Scarlet would try and kick her leg back to attempt and smack her foot hard against Tia's knee and attempt to weaken the girl's position and try to fight her way free.

Tia had just started to try and freeze Scarlet when the girl kicked her in the knee which cause Tia to stumble backwards. "Leave my cave or die." Tia said as she started to panic as her opponent was a more capable fighter than the last few hunters that came after her. "That is your final warning." Tia said before taking flight again to try and outmaneuver Scarlet.

Tia didn't know what to do as she circled Scarlet, her opponent seemed like a challenge and Tia didn't know if she could take her. However, Tia then had an idea "Lets see how you handle this." Tia would say before diving straight at Scarlet to try and tackle the girl straight into the lake at the back of the cave. Tia figured that in the water she would have a better chance since she could breathe underwater and Tia doubted Scarlet could do the same.

Scarlet let out a loud breath of relief as she managed to kick Tia back and then turned around only to watch the girl fly away like she did, something that made Scarlet groan a bit, it was a pain to deal with someone who could fly, she had done so before but that didn't mean that it was easy. It was difficult every time one would deal with a flier, but at least she had the ability to use long range attacks.

Scarlet would grit her teeth a little and attempt to start channel her magic into her palm, the palm started to glow and feel hot, it would radiate heat all around her but Scarlet seemed to be unaffected by it, she knew that this fight could be difficult and hope that it wouldn't be, but when Tia came down for her again, and tackled her it seemed as if Scarlet had no choice but to take that hit. She hadn't managed to finish charging her next blast, since she wanted to take this thing alive, she couldn't go full force and it was more difficult to control a small amount of arcane power than to simply unless an enormous burst of it.

With that she kept trying to channel her energy as she was flung into the water with Tia, now underwater she would release a fair bit of air that went up into the surface as bubbles, things seemed dire but she knew she could do this if she could only hold out for a little while longer, all she needed was a few more seconds and she'd be able to bring some pain to the dragon girl.

Tia felt a bit releaved that she was able to get Scarlet into the water. Tia immediately went on the attack as she knew that given time Scarlet may be able to take advantage of this situation. So, Tia charged at Scarlet through the water to try and ram into the girls stomach before swimming away and turning around to do the same move again.

Tia knew she was at home in the water and if her fast swimming attacks wouldn't seem to faze Scarlet then Tia knew she would just have to freeze her opponent solid and let her sink to the bottom of the lake.

Scarlet took more attacks as Tia came back again and smacked right into her forcing the girl's mouth to open up and air to just leak out of her, she couldn't stand being in the water for long, she knew that for sure, but soon enough her magic had finished charing into what it needed to be, a mighty and powerful attack that was now under more strict control just so that it wouldn't be able to kill a human, though she didn't know how much damage this dragon girl could take she wasn't willing to let the chance of bringing her back alive slip away, as such she would wait for Tia to come down towards her again, readying her fist.

Tia saw that Scarlet seemed to finish preparing for her attack and Tia couldn't help but feel a little desperate. Tia knew that she had to end this fast or she might lose the only advantage she had. So, this time before Tia charged at Scarlet she used her ice breathe on her own fist to cover it in a think layer of ice. "This should finish her." Tia said to herself before charging at Scarlet except his time Tia aimed her ice covered fist right at Scarlet's face to try and knock her attacker out cold. However, Tia focused on her attack so much that if Scarlet dodged Tia wouldn't be able to strike her back until she stopped completely which would give Scarlet an opening to attack her.

Tia's plan might not have been the smartest to do against Scarlet as the girl's magic was heating up the area around her hand quite a bit, within her hand it was burning hot, so Ice had no chance of stopping the girl's power right now. With that Scarlet fired her fist up against Tia's face as it hit the girl's magic would be released and with a flash of blue light she would try and strike Tia with a concentrated and less deathly impactful version of her Arcane Fury spell, with that she attempted to drive the force and impact of the spell and her body up to try and shoot Tia out of the water with a heavy impact.

Following which Scarlet would quickly try and escape from the lake within the cave and get up onto the surface so that she could breath, finding the very lack of air something dangerous and rather scary.
