On the top of an run down building Mystiques red hair blew in the wind as she put up a pair of binoculars waiting for her target to walk by the fountain. She had an idea of what her target looked like and waited patiently.

Kida made her way over to the fountain and sat on it's edge, unaware that someone might be watching. She stared out over the desolate landscape as she plotted her vengeance.

Mystique smirked seeing her target sitting at the fountain edge. Though long range wouldn't cut it for her right now. So she decided to lure her in. She snuck close to the fountain but not too close. She changed herself into a small girl. She then sniffed and started to cry to get her attention.

Kida heard a child crying and didn't know what to make of it. She was slightly suspicious though, as a child out in the wilderness wouldn't survive very long on its own, particularly not since Iblis had taken over. That meant there must be others somewhere close by, and the child had either, genuinely gotten lost and separated from the group or that the child was being used to draw her in. She wouldn't put it above Iblis' followers to stoop to such tactics, so she approached the child with caution, her grip on her spear tightening, "Are you lost?"

Mystique looked up in her disguise little girl form in tears looking at Kida. "Y-Yes, I lost my momma and I don't know what to do. I'm all alone and I-I-I'm scared." She cried holding her knees to her chest. Mystique needed Kida to get a little closer.

Kida stayed back, coldly eyeing the child. The only innocents she was genuinely concerned with protecting were her own people. She would feel no guilt just leaving the child there and continuing on her way, but she she had nothing else to do, so she figured she could offer her help if it was actually needed, "And just where did you see her last?"

Mystique points towards a broken statue and whimpered a little in her form. "She was there.....then.....fire came....and-" She cried covering her face. Mentally though she was almost excited but she was very good at acting after all she was a master of disguise.

Kida raised a brow, "And you miraculously survived?" she asked as she glanced over to the statue, "If there was fire, then your mother's likely dead, sweetheart."

Mystique smirked as she slowly pulled her hands off looking at Kida. "Like you will be." Letting herself change back to her blue skin self she jumped right at Kida and drew a knife.

Kida was briefly surprised, but barely managed to dodge Mystique's attack and swung her spear downward, aiming to slice off Mystique's arm. She hadn't honestly been expecting the actual child to be the enemy.

Mystique expertly dodged the spear and grabbed the wood. With a twist of her wrist she broke the wood holding the spear tip. She smirked tossing it away as she walked around Kida. "Now let's make it interesting. Hand to hand is much more fun don't you think?" She smirked clenching her fists.

Kida eyed Mystique carefully, refusing to answer her taunt as she leapt forward and harshly brought her fist to Mystique's jaw. She'd been training for thousands of years, and she was the best fighter amongst her people's warriors. Mystique didn't intimidate her in the slightest.

Mystique recoiled back from the punch in the jaw. She smirked as she wipe some blood off her chin. "Not bad, but not good enough." Mystique then ran to her and kicked Kida hard in the stomach.

Kida didn't respond as she moved with the kick, not quite quick enough to fully dodge it, before grasping Mystique's leg and using the woman's own momentum against her to throw her to the ground.

Mystique used the momentum to flip with her hands to effortlessly get back on her feet. She wasn't impressed by Kidas skills. She moved to the left keeping some distance between waiting for her to make the next move.

Kida eyed Mystique carefully, "Any particular reason for the ambush?" she asked waiting patiently. She honestly didn't really have time for this, but it would be an annoyance if this woman followed her home. She slowly circled closer to where the remains of her spear had fallen.

Mystique gave a small smirk as she saw what Kida was doing. She wasn't worried though. "Let's just say a fire demon you know has sent me to finish what he started." She smirked as she slowly pulled out a dagger from her boot.

Kida growled in rage, her anger overtaking her good judgment as she flew at Mystique. All the hurt and pain from the loss of her own people, making her strikes fast and hard, but sloppy.

Mystique smirked at Kida charging at her. Mystique easily dodged the fast and sloppy attacks with ease. She dropped under another attack and held her dagger tightly. She smirked as she swung her blade at Kidas leg.

Kida hissed in pain as the blade cut into her calf but struck out and kneed Mystique hard in the jaw, the same place her fist had hit earlier. She turned and grabbed the half of her spear that still had the sharp blade attached and wielded it with fury coming at Mystique again and again.

Mystique spat blood out from the knee hit to the jaw. Now she was pissed looking over to Kida. Mystique used her dagger to counter the spear blade. She gained a small cut on her forearm but she didn't care. Using her dagger she slashed at Kida in the stomach area.

Kida grinned fiercely, the heat of the battle causing her adrenaline to spike, and ignored the cut on her stomach in favor of going after Mystique once more. Her blade coming down swiftly in a tightly controlled arc as she aimed for the hand Mystique was using to hold her dagger.

Mystique used the dagger to block the spear and smirked at Kida getting excited. "Now we're talking." She kicked Kida away and flipped back a couple of times. Taking the dagger by the blade she expertly threw it right towards Kida's other leg.

Kida barely managed to deflect the blade with her spear and paused, calming herself down and catching her breath, the wound on her stomach starting to make itself known to her. She tightened her grip on her spear and studied Mystique searching for weaknesses and an opening in her guard.

Mystique hissed slightly looking at the cut on her arm and her jaw felt a little sore but there were no serious wounds. She took a breathe to calm herself. Held up one hand in the air as she took a stance. She smirked at Kida as she waved a hand toward herself daring her to come at her.

Kida studied the woman carefully, not rising to her bait. She kicked the knife farther away from the both of them so Mystique couldn't pick it up again. Kida then slowly approached the woman, on the defensive, waiting for Mystique to make her move.

Mystique was impressed that Kida didn't take her bait but bait or no bait Mystique planned on winning. She charged right towards Kida. She threw swift and deadly strikes but barely left any room to counter.

Kida kept up with Mystique's strikes well, having been building up her stamina and endurance for millenia. Kida swiped down at Mystique's legs with the bladed end of her half spear and viciously headbutted the woman.

Mystique dodged the blade but could not avoid the head butt. She growled in pain and looked over in anger. She let out a roar as she grabbed the half of Kida's spear. She used it as momentum to throw Kida toward the dried fountain.

Kida's head hurt a bit, but the look on Mystique's face was definitely worth it. Kida kept her grip on her spear, and barely managed to land on her feet. A painful jolt ran up her legs when she landed, but she ignored the pain. She refused to let go of her weapon once more. Kida roughly twisted the spear to free it from Mystique's grip.
