The next level... For Priere.

Well, before this tournament started, Priere was going to need to level up, ya know... It was always imperative to be at the best you could be, even if she was convinced that beating the other team would be easy pickins... It just scratched something off of her to-do list.

"Take ranking exam, check. Now to see who comes and whether I pass or fail..."

In her eyes, failure was absolutely not an option.

^Takai would appear appear in the area release a rather strong amount of black smoke from his hands for some reason. Takai for some reason was feeling very into fighting right now and felt ranking someone was just what he wanted to do. Although Takai would raise an eye brow when he noticed Priere.^

Takai- Really you again?

Priere was ready for this ranking exam. She drank some Cactus Water just to get pumped up, playing with some magic in her hand.

"This is it... Heh heh! Signis, Blue... Whenever I need you, come forth--

She was cut off by the sight of Takai. She sighed heavily. narrowing her eyes, saying the exact same thing that he said.

"Really? You again?"

This was kinda ironic... Oh well, she wasn't going to complain... Too much.

"Well, as you know, I'm Priere and I'm here for an exam. I assume you'll be my proctor again... So, what do I have to do, Mr. Proctor?"

*With in a instant Maze himself would appear in the ranking area between the young girl and Taki. He turned toward the girl smiling. Maze heard that this was her second exam...and he hadn't done one in a while.*

"Why don't you let me take this one Taki."

^Takai was about to release a very powerful attack to start things off but before he could Maze would appear. Takai would instantly stop and the smoke coming from his body would disappear as he would stand with his hands in his pockets.^

Takai- Ahhh Maze-san its been a while well if you want go ahead as long as I can watch from a distance. Have fun.

^Takai would sign and would disappear in a cloud of poison and would reappear a good distance away creating a throne of poison and would sit to watch the ranking exam.^

Priere gasped, sensing a very strong magical presence from this guy... It dwarfed hers so much that it was... Stupid. She tried not to show how amazed she was at his power...

"... Heh Heh... So, we're gonna switch it up, are we...? Haha, Nice to meet you, Magic Man. I hope I do well."

She readied herself, conjuring up some magic...

"Huh! So you use magic too. Hmmm....and it looks strong to."

*Maze took a fighting pose much like the guys who do karate. He flared up his magical energy around him causing a type of aura to appear around him. The ground shook as Maze showed off his power.*

"This is gonna be fun. Come on then show Ol'Magic Man what you got."

Priere smirked, ready to give it her all. But to ensure that, she drank an entire bottle of Cactus Water before hand, her eyes gleaming brightly afterward.

"Okay! Let's go..."

She started to wave her hands around, which would create a fluctuation of magic. Around Maze some thin sheets of ice would appear rather swiftly and Ice Spikes would try to shoot out of them to impale him from all sides. In addition, ice seemed to form unnaturally on the ground as if water were right there, making a few larger ice spikes jut up from underneath him. Priere continued to wave her hands around and watch to see what would happen...

.- In a quick yet powerful burst the aura around Maze would flare out in a wave of magical energy that would completely blow away all of Priere's ice spikes. She had made sheets of ice in the air so that she could use her attack even off the ground. Maze was impress but no it was his turn. Maze would appear behind Priere his fist cocked back and ready to chop at Priere's neck with great force and would knock her out.-.

Fighting speedy foes was not Priere's strong suit at all. But at least she could see now that he was a speedy adversary...

"Damn... Strong--"

Before she knew it, he was gone. Where the hell did he-- She felt a burst of wind behind her from his speed of movement. She had to dodge immediately, or suffer the price. She stopped everything was doing and immediately snapped her fingers, changing her magic and using a different attack, the Dark Flux. Just then, right behind her, as Maze's hand was about to make contact, there was a watery explosion between the two of them that shot Priere down. She didn't know what happened to Maze, but as she fell, she continued to wave her hands around as if she hadn't even stopped in the first place, spreading her arms wide before catching herself in the air.

"Ghhh... I'll have to really learn to preserve my power..."

"AHHH~!!!!"

.-Maze would shirk in fear. Thou he was left unaffected by the explosion due to the strong aura around him he was scarred for Priere. Maze thought he had blown her up in some freak clash of their two magical powers. Maze would catch Priere in his arms holding her tightly crying a bit.-.

"OH MY GOD ARE YOU OK?! WHY WHY DID YOU BLOW YOURSELF UP! PLEASE BE OK! HERE HERE YOU RANK UP OK JUST PLEASE BE OK!!!!"

Before Priere knew it, she was caught by Maze and he seemed to be in fear. She was pretty... Confused.

"... Eh? I passed...?"

She was rather confused, but happy to hear about it. She was actually too confused to even tell him what happened.

"Eh...? ... Eh...?"

She looked around, then up to him.

"... EH!?!?"

"Oh no....she must of hit her head!!!!!"

.- Maze figured that since she couldn't talk and all she was saying was 'eh'-.

"Oh my god do you....DO YOU NEED TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL?!!"

.-Maze shouted in the thought that she might of damaged her hear as well. -.

Priere winced at his screaming, feeling absolutely fine.

"Err... I'm fine. I'm just a bit... Uuuuh... Confused. But you say I ranked up?"

Priere didn't seem to be at a bad disposition at all. She kinda seemed a little happy, even though she was still confused.

"Yes yes anything to make you better. Speical Jounin ok!?"

.- Maze was worried about the girl and he wanted to do anything to help. However she was strong...and her fight style was unique..she deserved a rank up. -.

Priere smiled, laughing a bit. This guy was a spazz, but he was cool.

"Haha, I'm fine, I'm fine I tell ya. Hey, you're the first person to be unaffected by my magic at all... You must be really good, huh? Think you could give me some pointers some time?"

She really admired the magical power that this guy gave off and wished to surpass him one day.
