The frigid winds rushed past his face at breathtaking speeds, the night air around him slowly becoming a flurried blur of white and black. In this moment the world was shaken up like a holiday snowglobe, a blizzard forming more flakes than it would ever make sense to count. In the approaching distance, a sea of trees became like green confetti as the thick layer of snow draped their branches. Throwing a large plume of fiery energy, Kaen easily adjusted his trajectory and put his body into position for a solid landing. A roaring, swirling storm of silver and white crystals exploded into the air on contact. Standing from his three-point landing Kaen flexed his body and instantly increased his body temperature causing the surrounding flurry to melt and re-freeze, falling to the ground with soft piddar-padders echoing across the untouched snowscape.
With a deep breathe Kaen would exhale slowly, a large plume of steam exuding from his razor-sharp toothy maw. With another deep inhale from his nostrils, his ears would perk up. Something familiar was in the air, an embarrassing, unfortunate event to be sure. Luck would not be on their side this time. What they were doing out here in the middle of the night, alone in the mountains, Kaen could not say. Though he was out here as well, he had no room to talk. But none the less they were both out here among the mountain-scape of Lightning Country. Paint him fortunate, Kaen was excited for a second chance to settle the score with this so-called flame user. It was time to settle the score for good. Stretching his arms high and then leaning from side to side, Kaen would prepare his body. "Alright, it's time our paths crossed once more. I hope you're ready!" With a single bound Kaen would launch himself into the air leaving a veil of vapor from his heat.

Suddenly the ivory laden scenery, laced with the shadows of night bloomed to life as Kaen's plethora of fireballs littered the night sky. "I found you!" Kaen's attack would threaten Uri with little to no warning. Would he be able to move in time, was he even paying attention? The attack was not meant to kill, but cause injury at best. It was a declaration of intent, Kaen's eyes were filled to the brim with it. The Flame Court Hybrid was out for blood, and he would taste it by the time the brilliant aurora shimmered on the frosted peaks of the Spine of the World.

Suddenly Kaen's own Ancient aura burst to life and enveloped his body. 
His sentence was unexpectedly cut short as a massive wave of water enveloped him and drowned his ring of fire to nothing but wisps of steam until finally nothing at all. As the flames died down a new creation would be in place of where Kaen once stood. Wearing his contract like a suit of armor, their own power, and looks melded into one new, more powerful being. Metal darker than the night above them, jagged edges crueler than an assassin's dagger, a monstrous blade that towered in length more than that of Kaen himself. What was this new amalgamation before Uri? Death, no, the grim reaper himself. It's malevolent aura almost oozing out from beneath the chinked armor. Uri would not survive this night, and this 
Nothing but faint wisps of shadowy energy was left in his place as Kaen reappeared a short distance away. A shit eating grin still plastered on his toothy maw. 
The power struggle raged on shaking the mountains surrounding these two fire users. It would end quicker than one would have expected. Kaen's gaze remained unaverted, locked onto Uri as he attempted to maneuver himself out of sight once again. Kaen had enough of these silly patty cake games, it was time to take what was his. 
The fire-based slugfest continued as Uri was quick to respond. Power sliced out from the cloud ninja, the ground torn asunder from its a brilliant destructive force, rushing towards Kaen. Blue fire erupted along its trail and then ignited Kaen himself. The surrounding forest was unfortunate to receive yet another dose of flames to the already growing bonfire. Relatively safe within his crude armor, Kaen would ignore the searing pain that enveloped him. Seething anger erupted out from his helmet like a steam vent. 
Kaen's aura would explode enveloping the surrounding area in a fire so bright it made Kaen appear as nothing but shadow. This was his true essence, that of the souls of not just himself, but the plethora he had consumed since he escaped that prison so long ago. In addition to that the very essence of Homura himself, the Lord of the Flame Court. Kaen's grip tightened before he threw the Cloud nin away like he was nothing. Suddenly a swirling vortex of energy erupted from Kaen's palm enveloping Uri. Shooting upwards Kaen would raise a single arm directing it towards the rising ninja above. Condensing chakra into an orb Kaen would focus it more before it compressed down even further. With the slightest of motions, Kaen would direct the energy towards Uri. Still, his foe would not be taken down, he could feel their resolve weakening, however. This would not take much longer for the Hybrid. 
Kaen would relinquish his blood covered forearm from the depths of Uri's chest, large droplets of blood dropped and dripped over the bloody Ninja's body and onto the ground beside him. Kaen would hold his prize just above his head. The tiny thrumming ball vibrated in his hands, glowing with an almost otherworldly blue hue, it was Uri's soul. A keen gaze would notice the golden band and with his free hand would steal it away for himself, this man would need it no longer. With both prizes in hand, Kaen's visage would escape behind the glistening aurora dawning over The Spine of the World.
