Leona Vermillion - A Flame Hot Face Off
Life was always in motion. It wasn’t something that was in a straight path and so when things came some had to roll with the punches. Leona was one of those very people. Her entire life was changed but there was nothing she could do. She didn’t really care about anything anymore. Her place was in the wild where she could live as she pleased without the care of others. That was the life she enjoyed the most. Maybe it was because of all of the pressures that had come with the boring life of being a noble of Clover. While she was out in the wild, she did have many times where she missed her family but she felt more at home and connected to her true self in the wild and that was why she stayed for so long. She used that opportunity to train and get stronger and do whatever she wanted outside of all the rules and regulations that she was under while in Clover. Her favorite place overall was the volcano. It cleared her mind and she got to bask in the heat around her.
While she was enjoying her time away she was pulled from her life to be forced back home and then forced to keep a secret that her father told her. He was cruel in his ways and it wasn’t something that she respected or cared for. Being forced to lie to your brother about the true reason you had to return and act like everything was okay while in the background you were being given a position that you didn’t want at all while it was being stripped from your brother was not the way she wanted things to go. She didn’t want to be the heiress of the family nor did she want to be forced to hurt her close ones like this but alas she had no choice. Her true calling was in the wild, not dealing with the politics of the family but it would seem that out of spite, her father wanted to cage her. At first, things were okay since the position wasn’t quite hers and Taiyo was able to continue with being the heir, at least to his knowledge.
On the bright side, she got to reconnect with her cousins. She and Leonora had a strong bond as close cousins would but the other side to that was their rivalry. She had never lost to her younger cousin but they did have a few times where draws were the result. She had been thinking about that quite a lot in recent times. She knew it was only a matter of time until they face off again but with the way the family was, only one of them would be walking away alive. She wasn’t sure if she was ready for that fateful day to happen but it was inevitable. Their loyalties were in different places and that was quite okay. All she needed to do was make peace with it and make sure that she enjoyed the final showdown and whatever may come then it was.
When she was named the heiress of the family, it put a strain on her relationship with her brother but it wasn’t irreparable unlike his relationship with their father or even her relationship with the man. On the fateful day where everything changed, Taiyo ended up killing their father and she was conflicted with her feelings but overall she stuck with her brother. She loved him and wanted to stick by him no matter what. Their relationship was repaired and she and he trained some of the time. He was much different from the kid she left. In their spars, he was able to quickly take her down which was something he wasn’t nearly able to do when they were younger. She was proud of the warrior he had become but was afraid that he would eventually lose himself more than the bit she already realized that he had lost. In the end, she had to leave it up to him.
The bond between Leona and her mother was strong. It was hard seeing her mother go through the pain she did when Taiyo did what he did. Even so, she was there to assure her mother that everything was going to be okay and what had happened was unavoidable so now they had to live and carry on. She was happy to see her mom back to herself, while not fully the woman she was, she wasn’t stricken by guilt or feeling broken anymore. If Leona was to perish, she needed to make sure that her mom would be strong and wouldn’t relapse into that state.
The other person she reconnected with was Lucia. It was nice to see that she was still around and giving her service to the family. It was no surprise that after the split she stuck with Taiyo. She had been there for him since he was tiny so it was a no brainer. Her spatial magic always came in handy and saved a lot of time in many situations. She was also good at healing which was in a lot of cases a necessity. Though the woman was closer with Taiyo than with her, Leona and her had a good bond.
Having made up her mind, Leona spent some time with her mother, her brother and all of those closest to her before deciding to journey one last time. She had given her final goodbyes whether the recipients knew it was or not. She wasn’t emotional so there were no breakdowns but as she departed through a portal she asked Lucia to make for her there was one single tear that fell before evaporating through her fire magic. She stepped through the portal and was in the Forsaken region. From there she journeyed to the Volcanic Grand Magic Zone. She was going to enjoy her time in the wild until she ended up facing off against Leonora and she wasn’t going to let anyone else have the pleasure of beating her. Whether it took days or months, they were going to cross paths eventually and that was something she was betting on. After a while there, Leona wandered again, moving to another area where she could sit and enjoy nature's goodness. WC: 1073 TWC: 1073

Ostanda stretched from her standing position on her broom. She was still sore and annoyed from the past week. She dealt with a spar a few days ago to dealing with trying to ensure Enlil understood his place. That socialite was so damn stubborn and was more worried about his damn teaparty with his circle then the danger he was in, in her hideout. She was catching on to taiyo's obsession and his movements. Could she just walk up to his estate and move on in. Yes. However, that estate would not be standing if the two were in the same building. She wanted nothing more then destroy him and all he held dear. She wanted to end his bloodline and rid his existence of a stain from this world. None of the other vermillion can this. She was the only one who could.
[BReAK][BReAK] Her biggest issues with her plan was she wasn't sound in mind or body. She needed to find her balance again. She just wasn't sure how. Going back to the life she lived was the best way, but that meant putting back on that mantle and bearing the chains of clover's judging eyes. Plus at this point she would be in the green mantis, and while that wasn't bad because kea was there, the green mantis just wasn't the squad she would want to be stuck in.
[BReAK][BReAK] Her anger grew more and more each day in acknowledgement of the unbalance. She needed to keep moving and occupied. She had to start making moves and ensuring balance was restored and the first part was to go after his supporters. Her first victim was going to be his sister.The woman was all about battle and the wilds yet she follow him like a lost puppy even after what happened. the woman was fit to exist. She sighed knowing where leona was to be found as she flew down ending up a few feet behind her " you are much too easy to find traitor."She said coldly stepping off the broom
Once a sword owned by the Coral Peacocks Captain; Silas Vermillion, this sword has a rich history of courage and war. Using it for quite some time during his Magic Knight career, this sword had grown in strength significantly, but it had never been a relic. During the former Captain's death and the Shatter itself, some of his soul remained in the sword. Being locked away in Ardere Kasai's office for months, it had been neglected. it had once been passed down to Lydia, who had formed a bond with it more powerful than its predecessor. It had served the former vice-captain of the Crimson Lions well that was until her disappearance. To this day no one knows what fate befell the once noble warrioress, with the sword having been found in the temporal grand mana zone without its owner beside it the worst was believed to have happened. The blade was again broken when it was found and was reforged into the current form it has.
[break][break]
These twin blades are seemingly made out of molten metal and lava and so give a vibrant glow that can cause first-degree burns even to the owner if they are not careful. The hilts are around 20cm long while the blades themselves are double-bladed and around 38cm in length. The blades themselves seem to be semi-ornate at the hilt till around halfway down the sword where the molten lava and metal can be plainly seen. It is almost as if the blade has had enough of being broken and reforged and so protecting itself from that eventuality from happening once more.
Moving their hands into a steeple before pushing them together and rolling them to make a V shape is enough to activate this ability as a runic seal of golden orange appears allowing what appears to be molten feathers to pour forth and completely surround the wielder of the swords. Eventually, the feathers fall away leaving what appears to be a completely different person standing there. The wielder would now stand as a 5'9" slender woman with blonde hair in low-tied pigtails, and slightly glowing red menacing eyes that have bronze-coloured war paint markings underneath. She is found wearing black reinforced leather armour. The armour's pauldrons, helmet and boots all have black feathers that become blood red rear the end.
[break][break]
On her back is a set of black wings that become blood red at the bottom, these wings are functional allowing the owner to fly. In addition to this, it can allow the wielder to keep themselves warm against the cold. The wielder can choose to transport one other person while they are transformed but they will only be able to travel at 5m/s in this instance. To see through this illusion a person needs only 10 sensory which then breaks the transformation restoring the wielder's original appearance for that person.
The wielder clenches their fists turning them to where the fingers are turned towards them they place the right hand on top of the left before pulling their hands apart in a diagonal direction creating a spear of pure lava that is perfectly sized for the wielder with a tip that could be described as resembling that of a wasp's stinger. This spear can be used as a melee weapon or can be thrown in the direction of an enemy, regardless, of if it hits someone or not it will lose its shape and cause a 1m lava pool to be created. On a successful hit, a person will be dealt junior rank damage as well as being knocked back for 2m with an additional 5m being added for every 10 power the wielder has.
[break][break]
In addition to this, if a person finds themselves within the lava pools they will gain 1/2 junior rank damage. It doesn't matter if a person is directly hit or stands inside the lava pools (this includes the wielder), they will gain third-degree with a chance of gaining minor second-degree burns (the wielder will only gain these burns if they stand in the lava puddles). Additional spears can be created with the possibility of additional lava pools being formed, with the use of the ammo rules and can be handed off to allies if they so desire.
Running the flat near the hilt of the right blade of the left causes a set of golden-orange runes to appear hovering over the flats of both blades showing that this ability is activated. If a person were to get close enough to the blades they would see the edges moving like molten lava running from a volcano, but this only places them in a semi-active mode allowing for third-degree and minor second-degree burns to be given during melee fighting. Thrusting the blade up causes a ten-meter golden-orange runic circle to form above the area as the ability fully activates releasing what one may believe at first to be scolding hot rain, this, in fact, are large lava drops around the size of a thumbnail. Those within the spell's range will be dealt Junior rank damage upon the lava drops landing on them burning clothing and leaving third-degree and minor second-degree burns on any flesh they touch.

Leona Vermillion - A Flame Hot Face Off
And so the time came where the inevitable was happening. Leonora and Leona were about to have their final face off. She noticed Leonora behind her and heard her words. A grin formed on her face in excitement. “Maybe that was because I was waiting for you to find me. It’s been awhile, Leonora.” Leona said as she turned to face her cousin. ”Funny thing, you’re more of a traitor than I am. See, I am considered a traitor to Clover because I chose to stay loyal to my family. Technically, you and your brother and all of the others who chose to remain in Clover are traitors as well. You're traitors to the family and for what? A society that decided to butt into family affairs that had nothing to do with them. Not only that but they decided to turn their backs on the entire family instead of simply outlawing the person they believed is responsible, they outlaw the entire family. So, yeah, I don't care for that kind of society.”
Leona folded her arms and her grin slowly dissipated. ”The thing is, I am not bound to chains and neither are you. We have the freedom to do whatever we want to and I decided to use that freedom how I liked. I can go out and hunt and be in the wild all I want. Also, don’t come down here acting all high and mighty about what happened like you didn’t hate your parents the same way my brother and I hated our father. The difference was your parents didn’t manipulate you into lying and being someone you’re not. That’s why I care not of the result. Sure, things could have gone differently but now it’s too late to even speculate on what would have been different. I guess it comes down to simply this path we are now on.”
The flame lioness got into a fighting stance and her smirk returned. ”For your sake, I hope you kill me here because if you don’t, you will be the one dead. That said, there is one request I have, dear cousin, should you kill me here, I would like to rest by the volcano. Can you do that for me?” WC: 383 TWC: 1456

“Then I should have kept you waiting till you turned into a sack of bones.”She said, folding her arms as she listened to her. “”Oh, I have not betrayed anyone. I am still firm in a good view of clover society, I am an honored magic knight after all. And loyal to your family? Cut the Bullshit Leona. I didn’t allow my brother to behead my father. I didn’t stand by and let my brother threaten my mother twice and de-tounge a servant in front of 19 other servants. You were someone I once view as my equal and a rival. You never allowed anyone to dictate your life. Yet all I hear is I was scared to tell the little brother I love that daddy is making me silent. He didn’t seal your ability to tell taiyo. You had no guard on you at every moment to ensure there was no way Taiyo was to find out from you. No that is an excuse of a cowardly alley cat that was declawed.”She spoke removing her hands from being folded in front of her chest
[BReAK][BReAK]
“That you are right, I am free from my chains but as much as I like my freedom, I will use my chains to bring us back into unity and balance.”She said “ As for my parents, They lost that title when they gave up helping Kea. I Didn’t care what they tried with me, However, the moment they refused to help Kea. They are dead to me.”She said.
[BReAK][BReAK]
She laughed at her last comment as she smirked “ Oh I dont have to worry about losing to a declawed feral kitten. You will be ended here Leona, I will ensure your bloodline and all who followed Taiyo will end. Including your mother, the elders, and Lucia. There will be nothing left of any of you.”She said “That isn’t a threat but a promise.”She said “ As for where your body will be… That just depends if you can actually do anything to repent for your sins and failures as a sister, a cousin, and someone who was suppose to be strong and the loudest roar of all of us.”She said
