You would think, given how he had fled from his two attacks on The Typhoon's residents that he wouldn't be back. But with his successful attack on Atbash, the savannah was high on an adrenaline rush. He was confident and arrogant at the moment, thinking that he could succeed at whomever his target was next. Admittedly, Caesar didn't have a specific target in mind and instead, he was just planning on attacking whomever happened to cross his path. He was within The Typhoon's jungle, not pausing to relive the memories he had here. The Typhoon was not his home anymore.[glow=COLOR,1,400] ━ ✧*:･ﾟ[/glow]

Caesar had made a fatal mistake in returning to The Typhoon's territory. Maybe if he had encountered anybody besides Roan at first, he would be fine. He would be able to get another successful attack off, and would probably go cackling all the way home over it. Or well... whatever he considered to be home, anyways. Unfortunately for the brightly colored male, Roan was the one that he was going to encounter first, and the soothsayer had no patience left within him. Despite being a generally grumpy person, the medic wasn't usually very angry. He wasn't usually filled with legitimate hatred for someone else, for the most part. Caesar Cipher was the exception to this rule, though. The feline had maimed and killed indiscriminately, and his recent crimes were some of the worst. Deldrach, Goldie... hell, the siamese even would've been furious about Atbash if he had known about it. He may not have known her personally, but she was still a member of an allied group, and nobody deserved Caesar's bullshit.

Roan had also been out in the jungle as Caesar approached, having been busy with gathering herbs to bring back to the temple. The first thing that tipped him off to the fact that an intruder was near was the scent. Although the Cipher no longer carried the smell of any of the other major groups on him, he still had a distinctive rotten scent. The very same one that had been on Goldie's shapeshifted form when Roan had gone to treat her. He instantly tensed up upon smelling the other, his pupils narrowing down to dangerous slits as he glanced around him. The siamese wasted little time in stashing his satchel under the roots of a nearby tree, before heaving himself upwards, into the branches above.

It only took a bit of tree-hopping before Caesar came into view, and Roan felt red-hot anger bubbling within his chest. His claws dug lightly into the branch below him, and he had to resist the urge to snarl aloud. Instead, he just waited until the other was directly beneath him, finally lunging forward once Caesar was in place. He aimed to swoop downwards onto the other's back, landing roughly on him and shoving the other's muzzle into the dirt if he was successful. It was then that he growled from the back of his throat, his claws slipping out as he spoke, "Caesar Cipher. You've made a grave fucking mistake coming back here." The medic felt no guilt or worry about the fact that he wanted to kill Caesar. After all, the other had felt no guilt when he hurt or killed countless others, so why should Roan? He fully intended to rip the eyesore limb from limb, although unfortunately, fate wouldn't be in his favor for such an event.[/td][/tr][/table]

You would think given how recognizable his pelt color and scent was, Caesar would learn by now to change that. The demon knew it would benefit him, especially if he were planning on wrecking as much havoc as he wanted to do.
Being well-hidden was one way to ensure he wouldn't get his ass kicked before he managed to do any damage, considering how he wasn't well-adapted to physical fights. The rustling of leaves and branches made the savannah look up, ignoring the pain that shot through his shoulder from the wound Goldenluxury had made - only to see a draconic Siamese cat coming straight down at him. Before he could register what was going on, the Soothslayer pinned him down.

Caesar had no idea who Roan was, nor did he particularly care. What he did notice, though, was the fact that Roan carried the scent of herbs on him. A medic. Oh ho, how funny would it be if The Typhoon's medic was harmed and unable to do his job? Claws dug into his body from where Roan held him down, and dug into his muzzle, but the pain that he should be feeling didn't register. Instead, the savannah felt a rush of adrenaline; he lashed his tail, lighting himself on fire as an attempt to burn Roan's paws or at the very least try to make the younger feline release him.

No words from Caesar, not just yet. Especially y'know, given how his face was being shoved into the ground.[glow=COLOR,1,400] ━ ✧*:･ﾟ[/glow]

Unfortunately for Caesar, the other wouldn't fare so well in attempting to injure Roan. While the draconic feline very much was a medic, he wasn't useless in combat, either. His mama had taught him plenty, as well as Ahab showing him a few things, and he was far from afraid of what Caesar could do. Especially considering Roan had elementals of his own to utilize. As soon as the male saw flames beginning to overtake Caesar's body, he found himself snarling, "Don't you fucking dare" His snarl was rough as he utilized his own air elementals, thinning the air over Caesar's body before he leapt upwards. His elementals would not only effectively neuter the flames left with little oxygen, but it would also hopefully have the added benefit of making the Cipher lightheaded.

With his wings holding him upwards, the siamese came to a landing nearby, not waiting long before he attacked once more. With a snarl, he launched himself at Caesar's side, attempting to dig his claws into the other's shoulders and drag downwards, over his side. If he was successful, he'd likely be able to give the other jagged scars running down his side, as well as possibly leave the other with a limp from injured tendons or important musculature. As he attacked, he found himself muttering sharply, "The thing about fighting a medic is that I know exactly how to injure you the most." It wouldn't have surprised Roan that Caesar couldn't feel pain, but he also wouldn't have cared much. Instead, his aim was to humiliate the other, and there would be nothing more satisfying than seeing the other frantically limp and stumble away from The Typhoon's territory.

Well. There were a few things more satisfying, such as seeing the other's body strung up on the gate, but Roan would have to see how things went.[/td][/tr][/table]

If there was a way to fight against air elementals, Caesar didn't know one. His sister had the ability to control the wind too, but unfortunately he did not have that same ability. Not that he found it particularly useful, but it was annoying when it was used against his own elementals, ruining any chance he got to really get a fire going. The air was being thinned, making it hard for Caesar to breathe until the savannah half-jumped, half-scrambled a few paces to escape that specific patch of air that was being thinned. Caesar tried to bounce back as Roan came down from the air, but given that the demon had no idea where he was putting his paws, he didn't jump very far back.

Caesar felt his skin being torn, as well as his shoulder collapsing from the sudden weight and injury. He felt no pain, of course, instead feeling only the pressure from Roan's paws and wetness from where his black-colored blood was trying to cover the wound as quickly as it could. With what little strength he could manage with him being knocked over from the deep wound, Caesar tried to headbutt ROAN in the chest. He... didn't have horns like Roan or Roxanne did, so the worst he was doing was probably giving his own damn self a concussion or a pounding headache from the attempt.[glow=COLOR,1,400] ━ ✧*:･ﾟ[/glow]

Roan couldn't help but feel a sick sense of satisfaction as he noticed Caesar's struggling, a slightly menacing grin coming to his muzzle. Despite not taking pleasure in the pain of others for the majority of his life, the soothsayer found himself able to make an exception just this once. For Goldie, Deldrach, and Marianas... and everyone else who had been hurt by the Cipher. As he stood there, black blood dripping down from his claws, his thoughtful expression soon turned to a snarl, his tail lashing behind him. He saw Caesar moving to headbutt him in the chest, but he made no move to stop the other. Instead, he just let out a loud grunt as the other's hit connected, reeling back a bit. The hit did genuinely hurt, but not enough to cause Roan to back off. In fact, Caesar charging forward had put him in the exact position that the medic was hoping for.

With that former wicked grin returning to his face, Roan found himself hissing viciously, "Ojo por un ojo¹, Caesar Cipher." And with that, he rushed forward once more, both paws coming up with razor sharp claws out. One paw aimed to shove hard at the other's jaw, hoping to make the other's skull connect with the ground. At the same time, his other paw came up and aimed for the other's eye, attempting to rip it out of its socket with the force of his hit and the downward momentum. It seemed like the ultimate sort of poetic justice for the young feline. Smash Caesar's jaw against the ground for Marianas, and rip his eye out for Deldrach. It was a shame he couldn't further burn the other with his electrical elementals, though. Something told him that Caesar wouldn't be sticking around long if his attacks connected, though.

TRIGGER WARNING - gore in both paragraphs, starting at the third sentence of the first paragraph and ending after the first sentence of the second paragraph.

Ironically, this wouldn't be the first time that Caesar had lost an eye. The first time was whenever he was in his strawberry tiger body, back during his time in Elysium, when he tried killing Warringkingdoms. Rin had shot an arrow at him and it ended up lodging itself in his eye due to Goldenluxury leaping out at him to protect Warringkingdoms - Caesar had purposely pulled the arrow out of his socket, pulling out his eye along with it. Of course, he ended up fleeing right after all.

The eyes were an important part of a dream demon; they were the most sensitive part of a demon's soul and so when Roan's paw hovered over Caesar's eye, the savannah tensed up for a split second, before pain exploded throughout his body as the Soothslayer's claws dug into his eye socket and eventually started to pull his eye out with the momentum. A loud screech escaping his mouth as much as it possibly could with his jaw being pushed to the ground, the savannah writhed underneath of Roan, before he started to try and kick at ROAN's legs and stomach to try and knock the Siamese cat away from him.

If he was successful in getting Roan away from him, Caesar would immediately try to scramble to his paws and fled the scene, black blood trailing after him.[glow=COLOR,1,400] ━ ✧*:･ﾟ[/glow]

( tw: mentions of blood + a severed eye )

He... he had done it. He felt his claws scrape against sensitive flesh and tug at fur, before suddenly there was a release, and he was being struck in the stomach. He recoiled with a shout as he felt Caesar's paws connect, legs kicking directly at the soothsayer and claws scraping against his skill. Still, though, he found that he couldn't be too irritated about the pain. After all, he had gotten the revenge that he had so desperately craved. It wasn't quite as satisfying as if he had managed to actually kill Caesar, but this was the second best thing.

With his ears flattened back against his skull, the siamese took a step back away from Caesar's flailing body, a grunt leaving him. The other's black blood had already begun to stain his coat, much to his own chagrin, but he could deal with that later. For the moment, he just shouted after Caesar, blue eyes blazing as he raised his voice, "That's right, run! And don't you dare fucking come back, coward!" He wasn't just talking nonsense, either. He sincerely felt that if Caesar returned to The Typhoon's territory, there would be nothing holding Roan back from murdering him. For the moment, though, he just looked down at his prize, a huff leaving him as the Cipher's unseeing eye gaze back at him. He wasn't sure what he would do with it, but he was sure he could figure out something.[/td][/tr][/table]
