"I wonder if there is a catch to begin with...?" Izanamon inquired back mysteriously. Still now that the two has supported to that extent, she only have one way to do it. Letting herself stabbed with Ankh's feather on the nonvital part, Izanamon knelt on the ground, obviously wounded. However, miasmic gas even stronger than the red liquid before came out from her. Still, for some reason, it doesn't go beyond area one meter in radius from her...
"Well, then, now that it has come to this, it's clear that I'm way too old for this... still, even this granny wouldn't stop before she has given her lesson to you children. Who knows? Now that it has come to this, it's clear that your experience is higher than your mother... I guess those who fight while considering her surrounding cannot fight that well afterall... Still, just like you, I have one thing that I want to do... this trial is a bet... and exactly because it's a bet that I'll try hard to win."
From the blood sprouts higanbana, each droplets produces one, and now that her blood slowly trickles down, Izanamon danced in a war-dance like move, offering her blood to the cursed ground. Once she's done...
"Yomi's Invitation."
1000 higanbana uprooted from the ground, transforming themselves into 1000 bulbs of said flower. Izanamon slashed all of them, changing them into vortex of poison. However, not done with just that, a strong kekkai produced from four points in the battlefield, locking the duo with the hell queen. Before it fully closes, Izanamon sent out her bulbs outside, which seem to be really weird. They spreads somewhere else.
"Now I can fully fight without worrying about safety of my children."
Four Point Kekkai:
Locks all combatant in special kekkai that meant either as protection from interference. The more Izanamon got damaged that turn, the stronger the kekkai will be. 7 turns active, 7 turns cooldown.
Yomi's Invitation:
Applies sleepiness, blindness and numbness to the enemy if they inhales the poison. If they doesn't inhale it and it touched their skin instead, the poison would give paralyzing effect that would greatly lower the success their action for three turns.
Crimson Rain ~ Red Mist of Bloodbath:
One turn remaining, chance to get affected: 75 %. Because four point kekkai, the chance will not go down.

Ayaka looked at her aunt somewhat perplexed. She said that there wasn't a trick, yet her words had made her fight seriously. She grew angry at Ankh for ditching his promise, but this wasn't time to argue with the person who was helping her to come back to Mana. Still, now it seemed that Izanamon was fighting seriously, and as a newly formed vortex of poison descended upon them. And so, she had revealed the reason why she had been lenient with them.
"So that was the trick? You were concerned by the safety of my sisters? You could have done that earlier if that preoccupied you. Alright, the true fight begins now".
She knew that even if she was currently in her most superior form that there was even greater power for a Konohamon to acquire; a power so big that it killed or severely exhausted most of them. She knew that if she could, she'd use that power to pass this test, to be reunited with Mana but... she couldn't. But even then, that didn't mean that she couldn't unseal a part of her Digicore's power; a pretty big part, if she had to say. The ornament on the center of her obi began to shine brightly as her features became even more refined and her hair longer; the end result was an even more beautiful digimon than before... but above all, a way more powerful one. Ayaka's defensive instincts went into an overdrive with that boost, providing a much needed defense mechanism against all the toxins from her previous technique's that she couldn't evade now due to the kekkai greatly diminishing their mobility. She'd try to hold her breath as much as she could, but she knew that it wouldn't be that easy to dodge her aunt's technique.
Still, she had to seize her newly acquired adventage. She wouldn't wait til the poison reached her, so she'd try and surprise Izanamon. Due to the insanely fast she was now thanks to her newfound burst of power and her previously muttered incantation, she took a deep breath and dissapeared into a blur, trying to appear as close as she could from Izanamon's back. Now that the damage was unavoidable, she had to pull this one out. She joined her palms again, but this time, she released four wide arcs towards Izanamon, just in case the initial two failed to hit again. These blade's width was even greater than the previous ones, and in case they'd hit, Ayaka was pretty sure that she could turn the scales in her favor (again). Yet, this time her lungs had failed, and she had breathed a handful of the two noxious clouds on her ordeal. She began to feel her senses dimming at every second that passed but... that... wouldn't... deter... her... from... reaching... Mana.

Ankh scoffed, as the feather projectile hit her. However, the scoff turned into a grimace as soon as he realized he had broken his promise. This meant, Ayaka was displeased. But, he had no time to remorse this now. It was that hag's fault to let herself hit at all.
However, it turned out that Izanamon hag had some tricks in her sleeves. She let herself hit so she could perform some kind of weird trick that sprouts thousands of weird flower thing from her blood. Looks like his movement was proven to be mistake at all. Not to mention there was a barrier that locked all combatants in. This of course, made his movement limited.
"Tsk, so that was the purpose, huh?!" Ankh grimaced, that his action had helped Izanamon to perform such weird trick. Damn. He should have known it well. So she had been drawing them into hurting her, eh?
And Ayaka transformed... into more powerful form and gained buffs? That was something. She then casted the wind blades again at Izanamon, which hopefully could stall her a bit longer. Knowing that poisonous fog was still around, Ankh held his breath as long as he could before continuously shooting at Izanamon and approached her. Now with the speed buff from earlier still remained for short time, he could still make use of it, so he could encircle her before shooting her again and reaching to her side.
Once he managed to get to Izanamon's right, he would punch her at face with his fiery fist. But then he saw Ayaka... weakening?! Damn. It could be dangerous if he didn't get her out of that fog quick. He was close to run out of breath from holding too long, but he tried his best to take Ayaka away from this toxin before she ran out of breath, or worse, died.

"Tsch!" Unable to dodge the attack thanks to the supreme speed of a Konohamon, Izanamon took the brunt of the attack, unable to see or to hear. This is good... She's less naiver than many of the Konohamon, to add this kind of status effect to her attack, this is really well thought. However, when she saw that the fiery Beelzemon tries to shoot her, she tries to dodge. It was effective for few moments until suddenly she felt as if she can't move at all. The second waves hits her, resulting more blood spilled to the ground, creating more higanbana. Not helping that she got punched to the side!
"Kh...hh... Such a scary move..."
However, thanks to her getting damaged, the kekkai becomes stronger for that turn. The yomi dweller is not willing to just like that goes down, though. Now that it has come to this, she glanced down at her collarbone, where a mirror dwells. She'll have to use it afterall... but she can't do it now. Still, all that matters is that Ayaka would need to act fast otherwise she and her potential lover would be in trouble.
Rollcheck:
Ayaka inflicted by Crimson Rain ~ Mist of Bloodbath (the rollcheck said 68. If it hits 0-25, she won't get it)
Crimson Rain ~ Mist of Bloodbath is now over. Duration of the debuff is for three turns in Ayaka's body.

Ayaka's affected by Blindness, Sleepiness and Numb for 3 turns
Ankh affected by paralyzing sensation for 3 turns

On the good side of this, Ayaka hadn't felt the blinding effect of Izanamon's poison, due to her current form already being blind, but the bad side was... extremely worse; after the extreme pang of pain she felt in her chest, she almost didn't feel her body and felt extremely tired and slow. Even if her powers had been augmented, she actually felt that she was even weaker than in her perfect from. Yet, she wouldn't surrender. That wasn't even a choice.
Still, it seemed that even the part of her from that actually depended on her thinking was failing on a rather extreme manner, the energy that the aura of her body radiated became really strong. It had almost reached the climax of its power, and even if her passive defense wasn't as flashy as her incantations, that, combined with her Eien no Haru would at least provide some protection to her usually fragile and almost unconscious body. But that didn't mean that she wouldn't do anything.
She joined her palms, but this time she didn't separate them; instead, a green glow began to surround both her and Ankh's bodies. That was her healing move, and even if the injures the pair had sustained so far weren't consequential, it had an added bonus that'd sure come in handy.

Tsk. That old hag was up to that again. She deliberately let herself hit just for... this. She grew some more of that higanbana whatever it's called thingy, and she was really into it. That flower made a contact with him and... he suddenly felt a jolt in his body. His body suddenly felt heavier than usual. That's right, his moves were limited.
"Tsk... Fuck you, old hag!" Ankh shouted at Izanamon as his body was frozen from the attack. He couldn't even move his fingers, that he stayed like that in the time being.
Ayaka then casted a spell to heal him and herself. But it wouldn't help really much. He at least could feel his body a bit lighter... But still, he had to struggle to even aim the gun at her. That would take a wile until he could move his body effectively to shoot her.

Izanamon stood soon after, the mirror on her bosom shining brightly. However, something really scary happened. On Izanamon's forehead, two horns starting to sprout, changing her appearance to those of closer to an oni. Her red eyes shining with color of blood momentarily before it turned pure white slightly darker shade for the pupil and iris. Izanamon's intent is clear. She's going to be a notch more serious this time. Her claws grows longer, and now, her naginata completely abandoned.
"Bravo, bravo my niece... but still not enough. too bad for you, isn't it? Now let's see how you deal with this one."
Izanamon spreads her arms, creating more poison. However, this time, instead of an effect that immediately came to action, there's seem nothing weird with it. They can breathe it normally, but there's something that seem to be really amiss. Only then that both Ankh and Ayaka would feel that their debuff from Izanamon has gone completely. However...
"Inverted Blessing."
Should Ayaka's healing take effect this turn, it'll not cure her and Ankh, but rather, it'll damage them for the same amount instead.
Inverted Blessing:
In return for banishing all negative status effects in both allies and enemy, inverse the buff to debuff. On the following three turns, all positive status will be negative, healing move will be damaging move, debuff would become buff, poison would become healing move. Six turns cooldown.

She could feel herself growing stronger by each passing second, even if she couldn't do much, it seemed that Izanamon couldn't do much either? In her eyes, her aunt wasn't moving at all, except for the transformation she was suffering right now. Her visage became a demonic one as her nails grew and she dropped her Naginata to the ground. Exhaling another cloud of poison, this time, she felt her body lighter for a second, at least until she felt her own energy constricting her body. It was as if her own power were draining her right now. Looking at the previously shining ornament in her obi now had a polluted glow.
So, it seemed that this 'Inverted Blessing' had really that effect. Feeling extremely weak due to her own power-up used against her, mustering all her effort, she placed both her hands in the jewel, cancelling the burst of power altogether. She wouldn't be able use it for the rest of the trial, but she was happy that at least it had proved to be of some usefulness. Feeling her body restored, she felt that her other ability had been tainted as well, feeling a pang of pain in her chest instead of the soothing sensation she had felt previously. There was no time to waste, then. Even if the adverse effect would be rather obvious, it was time to get to work. She joined her palms away as she muttered her most potent healing incantation. It would surely backfire some way, but Ankh's safety was first.
"You definitely caught me off-guard, Oba-sama" she muttered "That is a truly terrifying technique".

Ayaka uses Haru ni Kakusareta on Ankh (Immediately shrouds her target in a veil of flowers, granting it stealth, silencing its steps, shrouding its smell under the fragrance of flowers and healing it for a mega-level attack. This improved stealth lasts two posts or until the target attacks/is damaged or affected by any harmful means. 3-post cooldown after the cast).

Looks like the hag was up for another trick again. She transformed into the demon he had seen earlier. Now she was getting serious, that's right. Ankh was still frozen from the higanbana attack, but something happened.
As the hag sprung more poison all around her. This time, the poison was rather... soothing. He could feel his body lighter, and can move with ease. He even didn't feel the freezing sensation in his body anymore. However, the healing spell Hanahime had casted became the pang of pain in chest instead. This time, he could breath easy from the "poison". She had casted the "Inverted Blessing" for this one, it seemed, but looks like he realized what she was after once she saw Ayaka grunted in pain when in that power-up form and prompted to cancel that.
To turn Ayaka's moves into backfire, so she would wound him instead.
As the Hanahime casted her most potent healing arts, Ankh warned her, "No, Hanahime! It's the trap!"
However, it was too late as the flowers surrounded him. Sure, the stealth move was... becoming debuffing move as the flowers was rather provided more strong scent. And there were... squeaks. Yeah, squeaks in his boots. But still, he could take the advantage of the poison, and the side effect of a heal. But then, the healing move became a pang of pain in his body instead of recovery, gradually hurting him over time. His Flame of Rebirth was sealed, yet again. So, the yellow and green hue disappeared from the red flame.
He then used his third eye, Eagle's eye to look over Izanamon. From his sights, he found a faint glow from the hag's chest. That's right, he found the weakpoint. Ah, screw that anyway. He then aimed his gun in his left hand at the mirror, attempting to shoot it. But, he needed a focus to make the shot accurate from his Eagle's Eye, otherwise it wouldn't work.
(OOC: Eagle's Eye: Improves accuracy for attacks, but need a 1 post charge to make a sure hit.)

"Using your healing here is useless and would only damage your ally more, Ayaka. Do not repeat the same mistake," Izanamon chided as she took her naginata again. She's still bloodied, however... Izanamon casted something to herself that seem to make her weaker. She inhales her own poison mist, which colored purple... and her wound slowly healing itself. However, it's clear that doing so, too, make her weaker. Going by the logic of inverted blessing, then that means actually Izanamon is damaging herself and make herself stronger in doing so.
Still, now that the two in rather odd state with the first damaged by her own spells while another... in totally funny state of being totally exposed and damaged. Izanamon raises her naginata and summoned seven thunders to hit Ankh yet again. With her poisons sealed, she may not use it otherwise it'll heal her opponents instead. However, one thing would happened if Ankh keep charging. Instead of sure hit, it'll be sure miss.
However, not satisfied with just that, the mega charged to Ankh, slamming the blunt end of her naginata, aimed toward his gun and then he himself before slashing once.
Inverted Blessing: 2 Turns Left
Izanamon uses Forbidden Sacrifice to increase her Attack and Defense.
In return of raising two of her parameters, Izanamon poisons herself. The poisons and the effect stacks each turn. Three turns active, three turns cooldown. May be cancelled anytime.

Damn it! Ayaka gritted her teeth. She had comitted a silly mistake, and now Ankh had been damage because that; she hadn't predicted that healing moves would be affected too. Calming herself, she began to concentrate. Time to do things the right way, she'd have plenty of time to correct those mistakes afterwards. Now she had to think about something that would remedy the situation, as most of her abilities had just been nixed by the combination of Inzanamon's aura and that 'Inverted Blessing' thing. Her aura was still active, and functioning at all its power, while it was a good bonus, that was just what it was supposed to be; a bonus, not a workhorse.
Seeing that Izanamon was seizing her inversion too to heal her wounds, Ayaka had an idea. As she began to summon the thunders from her Naginata, she muttered yet another incantation, but this time, her target wasn't her nor Ankh. She'd try to actually try to 'bless' Izanamon with her Omamori: Umi no Un. If she had got the gist of what was actually happening, the technique would actually make her aunt's movements way more sloppier if it was effective. Otherwise, the mental assault that she'd suffer would a good enough distraction.

Damn. That hag was about to disrupt Ankh's concentration on using the Eagle's Eye. But then, he already got the most of the grasp of the accuracy on the target by the time the demon hag summoned the seven lightnings at him. Fortunately, Ayaka had come with her incantation, which hopefully would hinder her movements, given the Inverted Blessing effect. While it still remained, Ankh decided to take the advantage on the strange effect of inverted healing and poisoning.
"Now!" Ankh shouted as he jumped to evade the thunders and fired the gun, attempting to shoot the mirror. And then the hag charged in, trying to knock off his gun and slashing him. He got his gun knocked off, but he blocked the slash with his cannon.
Ankh scoffed at the underworld queen, and then he tried to punch the Izanamon with his fire fist at her face before attempting to give her hand an elbow smash and kick her at gut. Hopefully it would be enough for her to lose her grip on the Naginata, so he could snatch it from her. If he succeeded to steal her weapon, Ankh would use the weapon against its owner, slashing her twice before throwing the naginata away and shot it down.
"Hah, is that all you got?!" Ankh retorted.

"Gh!?" Izanamon could feel it... She could feel herself becoming sluggish and more than not, she's starting to feel like her vision has gone blur. Izanamon gritted her teeth in frustration... however, they made a fatal mistake. The moment the Beelzemon shot her mirror, her horn gone the moment it hits and shattered her necklace. Izanamon coughed blood out, cancelling the effect of her current healing. However, she can feel it... she can feel the sudden surge of power. Her buff cancelled, and her mirror would need full seven turns to return.
Izanamon blocked the flaming fist with a strange martial art-like move where she twisted her hand to negate the strike's power. Incoming assault felt like nothing, an elbow smash to the hand. She dodged it and twisted her spear to strike Ankh back on his elbow instead. Strike to the gut. Izanamon uses that as a leverage to gain distance back from them, but not before slashing at Ankh..
"Hmph, such a waste of chance. Now let's get this started yet again."
Izanamon quickly called twisted her naginata again and this time, she called the red liquids again. Izanamon snapped her finger four times. Instead of becoming scythe like before, the attack now become twenty homing projectiles that aimed itself at Ankh. Not helping, Ayaka's buff from before has stacked with her poison's effect, making the bullets crazy fast and accurate.
"I will not let my niece swayed about by man with ridiculous double standard," she announced. "You're talking about peace without oppression yet you oppress other peoples opinion yourself, you discourages fight, but I bet you'll do anything to delete your adversaries... in the end, your path is cycle of madness."

Well, Ankh and her definitely weren't a good team. Apparently, that mirror was linked with the the strange state that made things go backwards, and now the incantation that she had muttered was actually helping her aunt to... well, dish damage. On the plus side, at least healing was possible now, so she only had to try to buy enough time. The benefit of her incancation would probably fade, but it also seemed that now Izanamon had seized that bonus quite handily. Not even her most potent incantation would save Ankh from that, so she seized the moment. She was fast, crazy fast, but if she didn't have anywhere to dodge, no amount of speed would be enough. Unleashing a tremendous amount of power, Ayaka concentrated it in her palms.
Right after, she released nine enormous blades of wind, each one going at a different direction, covering most of her aunt's escape routes. Even with her speed boosted, Ayaka had still her aura at full power, and given the width of the attack, she'd have to try really hard to evade it, and if just only one impacted her... things maybe would finally begin to get better, even if she knew that her aunt had an ace up her sleeve. She was just sure of that.

Goddamn. So the shot hit the mirror, and the Inverted Blessing got reversed. It was proven to be backfire for him, as the buffs became... buffs again. Izanamon was faster and powerful than ever, while he got his Flame of Rebirth still locked. Maybe he couldn't use it because of his own impatience, and then he got his melee moves blocked and got hit by her own, receiving a strike on gut. The slash was dodged, but still, Izanamon gained upper hand once more. As she stood on the distance, Ankh picked up his gun back.
However, Ayaka still had aces up in her sleeve. Maybe he could rely on it somehow. But he also had his own move. The flames pulsated around him, and he focused all of his desire and power into his own body, making the flames burn stronger. And the moment the flames coated his body...
"This is my power of desire to change the world! Flames of Desire!" Ankh bellowed.
The flames became the extension to his own body, granting him with superb attack power and strength. Just as Izanamon summoned the blobs, Ankh made use of his tripled power and speed from the Flames of Desire to dodge the bullets, to keep up with Izanamon's speed. Ayaka casted the incantations to summon wind blades more than ever to seal her aunt's movement. He then shot the gun and cannon repeatedly in attempt to either rain the old hag or just to crowd her so she would be trapped and get into the wind blades Ayaka had made. Either way, her movement was limited... for now.
"Maybe... I know my methods aren't acceptable, but know this... I'm doing it not for my own sake. It's for Hanahime, and the world itself. Even I have to enforce the order and peace, It's more than okay to establish the condition where we don't have to suffer from obligation to seek power. The right will stay protected, and the wrong will stay punished. I'll just give them appropriate reward and retribution, that's all." Ankh responded to Izanamon's declaration. "But then, I'll try to find more suitable place for such of you to live, so you and ones like you can live happily like Hanahime..."
