As Reimu's leg sweeps around, the dust cloaking her opponent swirls and blows aside. Before she can recognise what she is seeing, something drops down from above. Reimu's kick strikes a startled fairy, and moments later Meiling's heel comes down hard on her spine, slamming her into the ground.
The gatekeeper quickly follows up, flipping Reimu into the air before she can recover and then delivering a powerful punch that sends her to the top of the arena.
Meiling shoots through the air, matching her enemy's speed. She's sweating hard, but at the same time she seems to have something of a glow about her. Literally.
"It comes down to this! This is my last spell card; if you can survive then I'll allow you to pass."Reimu begins to slow, but Meiling is still travelling upwards.
"Spell card..."Reimu has just begun to fall as Meiling comes to a halt above her. Her hair seems to flare out and waver, though there is no wind. Drawing back her hand she crumples the card, and it flares with rainbow colours that flow down her veins before bursting forth until her entire hand seems converted to light.
With speed greater than any in the battle before, she fires herself downwards towards Reimu.
[spoiler]
"Attack Sign: Roc Fist!"A shaft of light erupts with a roar, spraying out as it collides with the spell border. The fight is over. Meiling can no longer continue, but what about Reimu?[/spoiler]
