Prelude Of Showdown [Open/Noharu/Ranma]

Yea. When that hand gripped her just a little too tightly, she wanted to believe that Shura was not going to be like this. But ...that kinda sold it.
Before that recitation of the Kido could leave her mouth, Noharu's hand whipped across Shura's face, slapping her solidly, as the blade in her hand, as well as the tattoo on her arm promptly burst into a bright array of red strings. And as Shura fired off that Kido, Noharu gritting her teeth as that blast shot into her, burning along the front of her body but otherwise missing her center of mass as a knee slammed up and into their joint hands to knock that blast to the side as she shifted her body. though only partially. In that instant, a section of her shoulder and chest were struck with that roaring Kido.

And then Shura's entire body would suddenly be locked in place. A flurry of Razor-sharp strings tightening along her frame before Noharu pulled back with her free hand. Causing those bright threads to tighten as a bit of blood ran down her shoulder. Yea... that fucking hurt. In that instant, she'd been able to activate her Shikai , her REAL Shikai, by slapping Shura across the face. And that sudden explosive burst of energy kept her from being more seriously injured. But the look that Noharu gave Shura was not a happy one.

She whipped her hand to the side, and those threads promptly shredded the Third seat in front of her. Cutting trough muscle and tendons with every single intent of cutting through the major muscle and connective tissue in her arms and legs, practically flaying the woman's limbs into uselessness. Nothing that would be permanent, but well. Shura would be spending a bit more time in Second Division that was for sure.

"Stupid Cunt." She hissed out, right before her free hand would grab onto the back of Shura's head, and she slammed her knee with full force and speed into the center of Shura's face. Fully intent on viciously knocking the woman out.
