Now that's more like it!

[Oh and his form was huge. Even for fitting along with somebody as huge as himself, it was pretty intimidating. He disappeared in a flash, reappearing in the other guy's hand and just as massive as he made himself out to be. The Meister's hand rests in the center of the ring, waiting and itching to be spun and thrown.]

Well? Find something to throw me at, big shot!

[ooc: That video several seconds before 2:00 mark :]]

[While he isn't small - barely missing the six feet mark - Bakura still finds himself wondering how the hell he is supposed to wield a Weapon like the one he is now holding in his hands. Fuck, two-edged sword his ass, that thing looks like the lovechild between a helicopter's rotor blade and a saw gone wrong!

Giving the Weapon a disgruntled glare, he shifts his hold on it and tries to lift it as a test. At the same time he tries to reach out through and create a resonance.]

Throw you? I thought you said that you are a sword and not a boomerang.

[Winters sighed. Was this guy gonna think outside the box or what? What was so wrong with being thrown? He didn't even get to the best part yet...but if he wanted to play it differently then he could see what the guy had.]

It's pretty fucking simple even if I'm something like a boomerang...that kills. Spin me around fast enough and I'll tear through anything or incinerate it to a pile of ash. If you want to swing me around then we'll see how that goes I guess.

[~~Usually the same thing that is what makes throwing any weapon you have a bad idea unless you have plenty more where it comes from. It does not return.~~]

Fine. [He sighs and does as he is supposed to. Despite its size the Weapon is surprisingly light and once he has it up at an acceptable height he gives it an experimental spin in front of him. Like that, huh...?] Well, I can't say that one gets bored using you.

[The remark is dry as he switches tactics to add short, surprising slashes to the twirling of the blade. Now for something to toss it at... Glancing around the field, his eyes settle on a pair that is training next to a big tree. Seconds later his face has pulled into an evil smirk.] That should do.

[He didn't really find it difficult to connect with this guy which was better than he could say about that one guy that gave him a shot not too long ago.

Despite the obvious annoyance this guy had with this whole thing, he could feel his mood change the instant he noticed another pair training. With the way the guy was experimenting with doing more than spinning, maybe this wouldn't be so bad.]

You read my mind. They won't train very well without putting a little fear into them.

[His expression twists into an insane sadistic grimace of a smirk for a moment and then he sends the Weapon flying - right at the height that would be needed to slice their necks off if they didn't duck fast!]

Whoops, sorry!

[As Winters went sailing over the heads of those that were training and getting to be that close to a pair of wusses to pretty much smell their fear, he laughed out loud as his form spun endlessly above them before arching back around. Seeing them have to duck once more and roll away was satisfying enough even if he would've like to see a little blood now and then.

As his form shot back towards Yami, he was pleasantly content with how this was going so far. Bloodlust was indeed a driving force for amusement.]

And they expect these people to protect this shithole? Pathetic!

[His expression showed a mild look of surprise as the Weapon started moving on its own in the air that quickly turned into a sadistic grin of glee as Winters returned. Catching him from the air, he chuckled as he kept the Weapon moving in a lazy spin.]

So that's how it is... Not bad!

[Winters was only sorry about the part where he couldn't do the wielding himself, but he was really getting used to this as long as he actually had people here that were willing to actually kill.]

See more targets out there?

None that we could take down without having the rest of those fools right on our cases.

[Speaking of the devil, there is already an instructor heading towards their almost victims.] We should change place for a bit.

[There was always some asshole coming to spoil some fun. He sighed, but he was not stupid enough to disagree.]

I guess you're right. If that asshole turns their back, make sure to toss me to finish the job.

[He gives him a short surprised look and then snickers.]

Not much for taking it slow and steady, are you? What else can this Weapon form of yours do?

[He thought for a moment. He knew what he was capable of doing when spun around really fast. Nobody ever tried anything else.]

Well if you spin me fast enough then I'll catch fire and melt things I'm thrown at...and no. I don't like taking things so. I have better things to do than sitting on my ass all day.

Fire, huh? [He sounded a lot less surprised with that than most people would. He gives the Weapon a casual look as he tries spinning it fast for a moment. He still has problems seeing the Weapons of this place as something else than replacements for cards.]

[And Winters only saw this form as the weapon he had in his own world and Meisters generally as a waste of time when he could do the killing himself. He was giving the guy credit for not complaining and just starting to spin him. if their resonation was good then the sparks would begin....

Already he could feel the heat building which began to raise his excitement. He remembered Natsu throwing him at the enemy and having it melt completely.]

Just a little bit more...

[Just a little more, eh? Bakura smirked to himself as he increased the spinning speed even more before he abruptly stopped it and brought the Weapon down in a straight upside down slash.]

[Well this was unexpected, wasn't it? He had never used his own weapon the way that this guy was using him right now. When he was moved into that slash, a sharp flame followed that arched outwards and tore through the earth it happened to come into contact with.]

Oh? Well that's new!

[He let out a low whistle at the unexpected effect of his playing around.]

Is it? You never tried out doing something that basic before?

[He sighed. Usually shit like that would get his blood boiling, but it was becoming a hell of a lot easier to point out the obvious...at least to him what was obvious.]

Do I really look like the kind of guy that would go around creating fancy shit when I can just tear through my enemies in simple ass ways? You want to add some flare? Be my fucking guest!

Hey, no need to become upset just because I found the second gear that you missed. [He smirked at him just because.]

You know...you're making me want to transform back just so I can punch you, kid.

[If he bothered to care about learning such moves then he would've by now.]

Are you looking for a fucking pat on the back or something?

[Kid? This guy had no clue!]

I don't. All I want is an useful weapon for now. One who is fit to challenge the gods with me!

[Winters didn't often show any thinking when it came to age.]

A useful weapon, huh? To challenge the gods? And you got yourself stuck with that weapon that almost got you killed?

[He chuckled.]

Next mission comes around and we'll see what we can do against some real enemies.

[The declaration surprises him a little, but he smirks anyway.]

Will we? I'll be looking forward to it in that case.

[Was it really a surprise? He wanted to see what he could do! That was why he was here after all!]

Hehe...likewise!
