Two Paths (Sequel to Why Me)

Tadashi vs 'Mariah'

Mariah lunged for Tadashi with the intention to kill. Tadashi held up his sword ready for her attack but she took out her special sword and swung the blade making a flash of lightning come out cutting Tadashi's arm.

"I hate that sword." He complained clutching his wound.

Mariah smirked at his comment as her sword retracted. She put it back in her belt and made hand signs.

"Lightning style: Lightning shock!" She shouted holding out her hand.

Little bolts of lightning came shooting out her fingers heading towards Tadashi.

"Earth style: Mud wall!"

A huge wall of mud came up from the Earth blocking Mariah's attack. When Tadashi's wall disappeared Mariah was gone also. Tadashi turned around seeing Mariah shooting fireballs at him which he returned. The fireballs cancelled each other out. During the mess, Tadashi got his sword and snuck up behind Mariah. Taking the chance he stabbed her in the arm causing her to grunt in pain. She activated her shield pushing him back.

"Water style: Water bullet no jutsu!" Mariah shouted sucking in air.

            As she released her breath the water bullet shot out hitting Tadashi sending him back. He fell to the ground but made hand signs.

"Water style: Tidal wave no jutsu!" He shouted.

 A huge tidal wave then went towards Mariah which she couldn't dodge. The giant wave hit her head on sending her back a mile. She was soaking wet, water dripping off her clothes.

"Ice element: Ice piercing dragon fierce tiger!" She shouted.

 A giant ice tiger formed running towards Tadashi. He looked around for something to deflect it but it was useless; it hit him head on. He laid on the ground motionless. Suddenly Mariah was forced back hurling through the air at an immense speed hitting the ground creating a large and deep creator in the ground. She groaned in pain as she got up. Mariah looked up to the sky and figured that she was about 200 feet in the ground and saw Tadashi standing at the edge with a smirk on his face. She felt a stinging pain in her back but she ignored it for now. She poured chakra to her feet and leapt into the air landing on her feet on the ground. 

"Ninja art: Black tornado!"

 Soon a huge black tornado came and sucked up Tadashi but he started to make hand signs. He created his own tornado countering Mariah's making them both disappear. She looked towards Tadashi who was standing up. He saw her eyes turn light blue and fangs grew.

"You sure do have a lot of chakra. I'd just love to have it." She said with a sadistic smile. "But it is annoying how you have the same techniques as I do."

"It's because we were the same person Mariah,"

Mariah ran towards Tadashi with her fangs barring.

"Crap," He muttered.

Quickly he dodged her not wanting to be caught. When she got close he took out a kunai throwing it at her making sure not to aim for any vital points. She dodged the kunai easily and grabbed Tadashi's arm bringing it close to her mouth. In attempt to escape, Tadashi sent his demonic chakra down his arm which consumed Mariah. She screamed in pain as the chakra burnt her.

"Bastard!" She growled.

Doing a back flip, she put distance between her and Tadashi. She then began to change. Her eyes turned red with her pupils in slits, she has long sharp claws, razor sharp teeth, horns began to grow on top of her head, the wind began to pick up making her black hair to whip around, her skin turned deathly pale making her look like a ghost. She didn't look like Mariah anymore; she looked like a completely new person. She then began to laugh.
