Tsuru ignored what the stumbling Knight said. Yoko knew that Tsuru wanted words with Virizion before carrying the battle on further, and so lit his fiery wisps, should Virizion try to strike him again. "'Such a pointless and ignoble death,'" Tsuru said, quoting Virizion as he raised his whip again to strike. "Those are your words, do you remember them? 'Such a pointless and ignoble death'. That is what you said as you ran my mother down! That was your eulogy, for a woman who gave her very life to protect the innocent! And you call yourself a Knight?! You are no Knight! You have no sense of honor, no sense of justice! You simply acted, unquestioningly, unthinking, like a fool! How pointless and ignoble was it now, Virizion? How pointless and ignoble was it, now that the boy she gave her life to save stands over you, prepared to end your life?! How pointless and ignoble will her sacrifice have been when I take the lives of your brother, and your King, and every other one of your monstrous kin that dares to even think of taking up arms against humanity?! Answer me, Sir Knight, how pointless and ignoble was her death now?!," Tsuru shouted, enraged, as he brought down his whip near Virizion's back, striking the ground. |

"She ran...Like a coward!" He said as he focused his energy making his horns grow sharper. "She could have stood and fought!" |

"You know better!" Tsuru shouted, cracking his whip at Virizion again. "She was a caregiver and a healer, not a soldier! She fled to protect a helpless infant from being butchered, by your hand! And you ran her down like a beast!," he shouted angrily. "But that is how you, and Vivian, and your wretched King view all of our kind, isn't it? Insects to be crushed underfoot, beasts to be hunted and butchered. Humans never knew--or cared--that your kind existed, and yet you brought war to us with all the strength you could muster! Humanity never posed you a threat...until now...," Tsuru said with scorn, looking down on Virizion with derision. "And it is all thanks to you, you and your wretched King. I am who I am because of you! I will unmake your precious Court, and cast down your beloved King, and in the end...you will only have yourselves to thank for it," Tsuru said, pacing before the weakened Knight. "I am the seed of your destruction, watered with the blood of my murdered parents, nourished by that 'pointless and ignoble' death," Tsuru said, practically gloating over Virizion. "And it was you, Virizion, who planted that seed. Knight of the Verdant Forests, indeed," he said with a chuckle. "So I will ask again, Sir Knight, how pointless and ignoble was that death? Hmm?," he asked mockingly. Yoko stood by as Tsuru had his long overdue talk with Virizion, should the Knight try anything he would be ready to intervene. |

"There was another option." He said with a smirk as blood dripped from his mouth. He shifted back into his human form and in one quick motion to fast to stop drove the blade trough his heart. "It is better to die than to be killed." He said coughing. "Brother!" He screamed up to the sky "I have failed twice to slay this human....Though you have no love for me or our fallen kin...see that...he...pa..pays..." And with that he dropped to the ground his body turning to a patch of flowers. Th orb of his soul lifted into the air and shattered. |

Tsuru and Yoko both flinched as Virizion stabbed himself through the heart and took his own life. As his body dissolved, Tsuru stared unblinking at the spot for a long moment. Once he blinked, he seemed to come to his senses, and his face was the very picture of rage. "You...coward!," he roared at the ground. "Your fate was mine to decide! Mine!," he bellowed as he dropped to his knees, smashing his fists overhead into the ground just beyond the flowers as he rest his forehead on the grass. "Death...or imprisonment...your fate was mine to decide...not yours!," he shouted, smashing his fists into the ground again. After a few moments, Tsuru collected himself. He stood up, brushing the grass from his knees as the green fire that surrounded him guttered out and the vines that clung to him fell away. "Once again, you have robbed me," Tsuru said, standing over Virizion's 'grave'. He stepped forward, pulling Virizion's sword from the ground. As his body had dissolved into flowers, this would have to do. He also plucked four of the grave flowers. "Let's go. Yoko," he said, one last glance at the gravesite before turning his back on it and heading back to the Maiden's Sanctuary, led by her vine. |

As Tsuru entered he was greet by Keldo. "My I have his sword...?" He asked. "No matter what you may have thought of him...He was my brother." |

"That is why I brought it," Tsuru said, holding up the sword to look it over. "He took his own life. I had him utterly defeated, and while I tried to decide his fate he drove his own blade through his chest, calling to the heavens for his brother to avenge him with his last breath," Tsuru said solemnly. "Sometimes death and bloodshed are beyond our hands," he said, relinquishing the sword and one of the grave-flowers to Keldeo. Edited by JPThunda, Feb 1 2016, 11:35 PM.

"Thank you." Keldo said tossing the sword into the air as he drew his own. With a quick strike he cut the other blade in half. He took the flower and tucked it into his hair. The Maiden approached. "I have received word from my brother, Your friends Ume and Maigo are getting married." She said. |

Tsuru watched as Keldeo destroyed the blade. It seemed a waste to him, as he was all but certain the blade must've held some mystic power, but he was not in a particularly argumentative mood. The battle's conclusion left him feeling somewhat melancholy. "I see," Tsuru said. Having just come from a funeral, he was in no mood for weddings. "Please have him give them my best. Unfortunately, I have other matters to attend to, and I doubt I will be able to attend. I promised to help restore the powers of He Who Gives Life, and I intend to keep that promise." Changing topics, and removing one of the three remaining grave-flowers, he offered it to Shaymin. "At the conclusion of our battle, while I wrestled with whether to imprison or execute Virizion, he took his own life, driving his sword through his chest. All that remained was his blade, and these flowers." |

"That does not surprise me..." she said taking the flower. "And you might be able to find some hep at the wedding, A few of my kin are there. They may have good hints as to where to find help." |
