Ian was almost too late to dull the blow to his groin. A secant later, and he would have fell the full force of her blow, though it still hurt rather intensely. As he saw Xira try to distance herself from him, Ian began to cover the floor of the dome with dirt. From the dirt, he made hundreds of small vines appear, and they began to grip all around Xira, pulling her to the floor, holding her there. Ian stood and stared over her. He said "You really should have taken this more seriously. You wont be able to burn through those vines, either: they gain strength because i've directly burrowed them straight through to the water below. they will continue to grow stronger and stronger, no matter how hard you struggle. It was an interesting match, but I have to move onward." With that, Ian punched a large hole in the side of the dome, letting the water cascade in as he dove out and began to swim to the surface. The sheer mass of the dome, now that it was filled with water, meant that she was not giong to be coming back to the surface anytime soon. Ian rose above the water, falling on more lily pads as he stood. He looked out, waiting to see what was next to come.
(sure it seems cruel, But its over
. and thats what really counts. Not bad, given that i've only had experience with one other RP before.)
