[Jade had been somewhat missing from the apartments. After all, the man hadn't been in his right head. Something had just begun to deteriorate. He was still there enough to know that he needed to be around the Coral for now, just to keep himself sane and... well, alive. He was currently sitting on top of the Coral, murmuring to himself and reciting what sounded like some kind of chant. It flitted between what sounded like an equation and just mumbles in some other language.

In his hands was a small glyph, constantly shifting and moving under his gaze. What he was attempting was unknown, but he seemed solely focused on it and it alone, whatever he was saying having some impact on the shining lines floating above his hands.]

[Normally, Cielo is content to let a fleeing enemy escape, but he isn't sure at all if it's okay to just leave someone like that loose, so he dives down, landing with both feet planted firmly on the coral. He leans over it, baring his demon's jagged teeth.

Are we going to fight more, bro?]

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

[Apparently he did.

Jade had simply been using his hiding time to charge up a larger spell to throw at the intruder. The glyph was under his feet and it looked like he was at the end of a chant.]

... Run mine enemies through-

Thunder blade!

[A large cloud formed above them and from it spouted a thick column of lightning that had formed into a sword that was sent charging right at Cielo's head.]

[rainbowarch]

[It's a direct hit, and Cielo is saved only by his demon's innate resistance to electric attacks. Alright, that's it. He roars and lunges at Jade, intending to pin him down with his feet.]

[Jade is crazy, not stupid, so when the giant demon flies at him, Jade books it out of the way, yelling something that did no sound pleasant as he dove. There's a sound of scraping as Jade rolls somewhat ungracefully away and wiggles to his feet again.

The target is very powerful. Jade's frazzled brain is beginning to wonder if he can beat him.]

[rainbowarch]

[Cielo's claws catch only the ground beneath him, and while he's missed the target, it does give him an opportunity to cast a quick healing spell on himself. He might be resistant to electricity, but it can still hurt when it's flung at him by a skilled mage.

Although he can't see Jade, his other senses help him tell which way the man has gone and he gives pursuit. He can't run forever!]

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

[Jade keeps moving as he circles around the Coral and away from Cielo. When he can, Jade turns around, thrusting his spear out to try to catch the demon as it came around. Maybe he could use momentum against te other, even if it cost him some balance.]
