Jin, the wind master versus Gale, the sure shot. The flame-haired demon was as happy-go-lucky as he ever was, grinning at his opponent while he hovered cross-legged, "Finally another shot at a place of our own! A little piece of heaven it is! No Urameshi here to go boom all in my face, either! Should be excitin' if I say so meself! Well, if'n ya don't mind me, I'll get a wee bit of fresh air before we go round 'n round!" The demon grinned and shot straight up into the air, high above the stadium. Koto looked on and announced, "And there he goes! Jin sure loves heights! I wonder... wait! What's Gale doing?"<br/><br/>Gale grinned and squinted up into the sky, "Just like she said he would. I'll be damned. C'mon back to earth, little birdie." The marskwoman raised a hand to the sky, squinted into the distance and then snapped her fingers twice. Two tiny energy orbs, barely bigger than a bullet, went screaming into the sky. Jin snapped out his reverie just in time to see the spiritual gunfire headed his way and dodged off to the side, "Good god, the woman's takin' potshots at me! That's hardly fair!" He streaked through the sky, dodging more 'gunfire', each shot seeming to get closer to it's mark. It was hard for Jin to close in, but his agility helped him stay just out of the reach of the shots.  "Gale's a living flak cannon! Jin's fighting to stay ahead of those shots! It's like a duck hunt! Albiet the duck is very handsome."<br/><br/>Down below, Gale grinned again, "Got'cha." She murmured, aimed, and fired. A direct hit! The flame-haired demon dropped from the sky like a stone as the shot passed through his leg. He hit the ring hard, putting a crater in it upon impact. Though like all fighters of his caliber, he was up shortly. "The hell was that! Unfair it was! Ye don't shoot a guy tryin' to get a little sun, missy! It's not sporting!" shouted Jin. Gale shook her head and smirked. She prepared to fire again, but the demon was on her in the blink of an eye, charging in with a hard punch to her gut. The impact knocked Gale back and she went tumbling, obviously unprepared for such a shot. As she rose to one knee she saw Jin charging up his Tornado Fist, the demon forming a miniature tornado around his left arm. Gale aimed at Jin and began to fire, but the demon simply held up his left arm, the shots deflected by the rampaging wind wound around his forearm. He continued to come at her. Gale managed to pull herself up at just the last moment and leap back, but true to it's nature, she didn't need to be close to get hit. The wind generated from the attack launched her backwards and she barely landed on her feet. "God damn!"<br/><br/>Jin grinned at her, "How'd ya like that, missy? Ain't so fun bein' the one chased is it?" Gale grunted, "Nope. But I'm not done either." The markswoman pulled off her long coat and tossed it to the side. It landed with an impossibly heavy thud, burying itself in the ring a few inches with it's sheer weight. Jin boggled, "You wearin' weighted clothing?!" Gale nodded and grinned, the woman rolling her shoulders a little to loosen up. Undeteered, Jin launched into another attack, soaring at her from across the ring. "That's right, come right at me!" Gale yelled, planting her feet firmly and intercepting the demon head-on. "She's crazy!" marveled Jin as he closed in, aiming to deliver a solid punch!<br/><br/>It never landed.<br/><br/>Miraculously, Gale grabbed the redheads arm at the bicep and held him at bay, her sheer strength keeping the demon pinned where he was. The force of wind coming off the tiny tornado whipped up her own red hair, making it flutter behind her. She pulled back her other fist. "Here we go! I heard about this one a few years ago, tell me if I'm doin' it right! Spirit..." The woman's hand glowed blue with spirit energy, particularly bright between her fingers. Jin seemed to blanch as he saw what was coming.<br/><br/>"SHOTGUN!"<br/><br/>The explosion was immense. The close-up impact send the demon soaring out of the ring and crashing into the opposite wall. He stared up at the sky a moment, in a daze, "..Dammit.. I thought I got away from that... kid. What's he got... a bloody sister?" And then promptly passed out. Gale grunted and shook her left hand where she'd been holding Jin back. The entire left side of her body ached from the miniature twister she'd practically been kissing. "Damn, that was rough. The Detective's tips worked though, gotta give her that." As she moved to yank her coat from the rocks, Juri finished her ten count and announced the next winner,<br/><br/>"Winner... Gale Barrows, Team Temple!"
