The most wet part. The ground is very soft because of a the massive rains that occur here. You can literly drown in puddles.

Enjoyed the relaxing trip through the marshlands upon a small wooden ferry he had burrowed to enjoy the scenery as he went to battle. His body adorned in the normal attire as usual, a white long sleeve shirt, black open vest, dark blue jeans. His only weapon was a katana at three and a half feet in length, milk white like bone, wrapped under a sheath of what appeared to be tanned skin. His blade held a handle at twelve inches in length, and the guard was half an inch thick and stood out at two inches from the center. A black painted chain was attached to the bottom of the blade which extended two and a half feet with narrow links and a hoop at it's base which had an opening big enough for his wrist. This hoops was currently fastened around his right wrist as he awaited his opponent while enjoying the scenery. He could also be spotted wearing his trademark ring and earrings

Gazing the scenery he took note of Fox, unsure of his exact words due to the distance but he held a strong sense of what he must have said. He reached in the ferry for one of the oars and gently push the end into the water, bringing himself to shore.
Once at the shore he would press the end of the oar into the ground to steady his balance before poll-vaulting himself onto the moist earth with his left hand upon the oar and his right gripping the handle of his blade, the majority of his weight on the oar to prevent his feet from sinking into the earth to deeply. Such a troublesome terrain he thought to himself as he felt his feet sink into the ground like if it were trying to devour him. His attention back to fox he would lift his head yelling out to project his voice the distance.
"No holding back this time fox, no matter how boring things get."
His voice was stern as it boomed over the wet marsh, his left hand released the oar to take hold of the skin sheath, and slide it into the loop of his belt to lock his sword into place, pulling his right hand from the hoop at the bottom of his sword and switching it over to his left wrist so not to affect his reach.

Upon hearing his response he held a smug smirk on his face, eyes closed as he looked to the lower right
"Human... It has been awhile since I have been called that."
He smirked as he raised his right hand to his right earring, before stopping himself.
"No... serious or not I should wait for that."
His hands lowered to the air in front of him, swaying his wrist upwards then down and to the right.
"Augmentation compound, duel cross."
His upper body above his waist began to emit a red aura, almost as if his body itself were aglow like the sun, while the lower half seemed to repel the air around his legs and feet. The wet grass blowing against him as his body slowly suspended itself form the air, causing him to levitate half a foot from the moist ground as liquid from the marsh dropped from his sneakers. His voice boomed out over the battlefield to reassure if Fox was certain on his choice."
"Fox, never offer the first move unless you are certain of victory. Are you certain?"

Grinned as he chanted to finish the combat augmentation
"Mind of the water, Spirit of the flame and body of the wind. Elemental Trinity"
His eyes seemed to water over as the tear drop scar burned bright for a moment upon his face. His body leaning forward as he dashed to fox at a speed clearing 1/10 the distance every second with the help of the augment on his wings sending him flying through the sky. While this movement began a loud humming noise echoed from around his legs at a high frequency, not readying his strike to see if any defenses were ready, and waiting for the last defining moment to where he would make his move against Fox.

At the last second of reaching fox, 1/10 a mile a way, his body vaulted itself directly in the air by crunching his body up and jumping off the air below him, causing his body to do a series of frontward flips until the 1/10 distance in front was replaced by equal distance directly above. From here he regained momentum as the vibrations which echoed around his legs screamed out, his body being shot down at sonic speeds, which were then amplified by gravities pull, and the effect of his released accel causing a double sonic shockwave to break from behind him. This energy was then redistributed to his right fist as it was balled up and slammed forward to lead his dive into the ground, the energy though would not disperse on contact though due to the fire augment, but instead remained inside his fist, transferring the damage from an impact type into a penetration type, keeping its damage from start until finish of the movement. The attack in respect was aimed at the center of foxes head.

As fox dodged he wasn't as worried about the counterattack as being stuck in the marsh from the impact. The moment fox was out of the way the attack had already collided with the ground before fox began his counter due to distance and speed. The fire augment was then dispelled through the right fist which landed into the ground to cause to energy to disperse through the ground then and blast outwards around Lloyd's body. This series of actions would super-heat the water around the moist marsh around him, heating it immediately into steam, which was repelled around his body by the wind element in his legs, and up into the air engulfing Fox's body. Water in it's gaseous state is highly absorbent to electromagnetic energies. (how it works is quoted below from a source.)
As the moisture was drawn from the ground it became hard and dry for the moment where Lloyd impacted the ground, allowing his fist to easily be removed as he used the water Augment, which was stronger now due to the lack of the fire Augmentation, which heightened his focus to sense the oncoming attack, which he countered by dodging out of the way by pressing off the ground on all four's forward to avoid Fox's strike, though still being in front of him.
"The absorption of electromagnetic radiation by water in the gas phase occurs in three regions of the spectrum. Rotational transitions are responsible for absorption in the microwave and far-infrared, vibrational transitions in the mid-infrared and near-infrared. Vibrational bands have rotational fine structure. Electronic transitions occur in the vacuum ultraviolet regions."

As he came to a halt his mind was still wandered elsewhere, focusing on the fields of attacks Fox could use, he had to consider the possibility of higher forms of attacks from his opponent. His body would set itself onto the ground before Fox had begun the attack, the wind blowing away from his body as well as releasing the water augmentation. A long exasperated sigh escaped from his lips while he moved his right had up, removing the right earring, and then switched to the left in order to remove it as well, each earring, upon removal, would cause the air pressure around Lloyd to become significantly higher, as if a great weight was released from each. The voice of the young man would also change to a much deeper and serious tone.
"Fox. I was hoping to save my stronger side for later, but this is my actual body, to damage it now would be a hindrance for the future. Thank you for getting stronger." His right hand tossed to his right side, as the earrings shattered to dust as your attack began, and the fragments swirled like a cyclone around his body. The wind itself ran violent and raged, cloth blowing rapidly like they could tear from his body, and his hair lifting into the air itself from the upwind.
"Black Trinity"
His body would slowly become engulfed in a black cloud, making another layer of pitch black skin, darker than night itself, over top his own form, even his clothing, leaving him merely a pitch black lining of his former body. From his chest a white diamond would crystallize at his center, showing veins stretching out around his body. This crystal was his essence, the very condensed being of his life force, and the body a form of pure phantom energy, sustained in it's condensed environment by the power of the crystals will at his core. The hot water washed over him from the ending to your attack, but as water collided with his skin it would find itself repelled, unable to touch the ice cold texture of his body. His right hand reached out, grabbing the hilt of his sword, the bone inside the sword reacted to his presence, wrapping the blade in the same energy he himself was engulfed within. The water found itself forcefully repelled back, being blown away by a pure repulsive energy, which crated in and leveled the ground five feet in all directions from the white crystal at his chest.
His voice seemed to come from the black figure, though there was no sign of lip movement for speech
"Black Trinity was a technique I only used once on Gray because I was forced too. Please show me I am not wasting it by using it willingly on you."
He would mock as the form lifted itself from the ground to an equal height of foxes, rotating in mid-air in order to face him.

Black Trinity is version of trinity branch of skills which alters the aura flow of the mind, body, and spirit to better adapt yourself to different situations. Black Trinity, alters the flow to better adapt oneself to use Phantom energy
"Phantom energy is a hypothetical form of dark energy that is even more potent than the cosmological constant at increasing the expansion of the universe (i.e., it satisfies the equation of state with w < -1). If it exists, it could cause the expansion of the universe to accelerate so quickly that a scenario known as the Big Rip would occur. If this is true, the expansion of the universe reaches an infinite degree in finite time, causing expansion to accelerate without bounds. This acceleration will pass the speed of light (since it involves expansion of the universe itself, not particles moving within it), causing the observable universe to shrink, as light and information emitted from distant stars cannot "catch up" with the expansion. As the observable universe contracts, objects will be unable to interact with each other via fundamental forces, and eventually the expansion will prevent any action of forces between any particles, even within atoms, "ripping apart" the universe. This characterizes the Big Rip as a possible end to the universe."
The above is just the basic concept, there is farm more considered to it, and it falls into the field of quintessence. From there the black trinity, once altering the mind body and spirit to a similar nature of Phantom Energy, I am able to use it to maximum potential, though there are major draw backs as well which I won't mention. As for the black cloud and form around my body, it is like an aura shield, for easy understand it would be similar to the Kyuubi cloak on naruto. As for the sword, the bone used is recreated from bones I made to match my own and the flesh is skin from my body tanned for a sheath, so the aura's affinity is shared, and thus the power of the Trinity will also be bestowed upon my weapon.

The entity would nod his head to Fox in understanding, using the vast amount of time fox used to power up he would spend letting his body fully adapt to the change. His body would suspend itself off the ground slightly higher, his arms spreading out to his sides as the white crystal at his chest glowed. The grass decaying, the power that leaked from fox into the atmosphere would find itself being eaten away like a leech. Whatever energy not contained and controlled withing his being would be slowly sapped and eaten away at, stored inside the crystal chest piece, causing it to glow a bright silver.
The time that he was allotted through foxes power up gave him ample time to take away the non-sentient life of the marshlands, leaving it nothing but a decayed swamp of tainted water and dead grass. All forms of non-sentient life and lesser sentience would be stripped of their life-force and absorbed into himself, in turn extending his time limit in Dark Trinity as well as drastically increasing the overall output of this form.
"If this is enough show boating, then I think it is time we move on?"
Despite the show of energy which fox emitted from his body, the energy that came from Setsuna was non-existent, as if there was none to be radiated, or if there was, it was of a different form.

Would nod his head to Fox in agreement.
"That's right, I was the one who showed Gray and Deyton this form, though I never showed them it's true usage."
He would let out a quiet laughter, a glow formed on his body which emitted around the battlefield, a gust of ice cold wind burst from his body with a single pulse as he prepared his stage. The dead grass and tainted water blowing away from the ground below him outwards, before finding itself slowly being levitated off of the ground, as if the rules of gravity no longer applied for the objects on the earth around them
"I permit you the first move"

Behind the black cloak which covered his being a smile formed upon his lips, his body would toss up into the air, its form parallel to the ground as it jumped over the linear attack of the swords strike the instant fox began his strike, measuring the angle of the sword and wrist to predict the attacks trajectory. From her he used the cloak to propel himself forward at fox, a sharp pain would emit through foxes left arm as a cut was made upon it far before Lloyd's image even reached him body. After the cut was made, his image would be seen dashing past fox, slashing the end of his dark blade across foxes arm through the air the cut had appeared, followed moments later by a large pressure of wind and sound booming over his body against him as Lloyd stood a good two hundred feet behind Fox's form with his back to fox, slowly rotating his body to face him.

His eyes didn't bother to watch the incoming blades which approached him due to their number, instead his focus was at the core of the clone attacking him. Left arm shifting behind his back he held the blade loosely in his right hand, not aiming to destroy the clone due to the danger countering would entail. Instead he focused all his reflexes into his right arm, while slowly hovering back, moving his body as needed as he danced through the air, blocking the first blade which struck at him with the side of his own. At the point of collision a burst of wind shot forth in the form of black energies from his blade, the repulsive force pushing back his blade, while abusing his momentum to redirect his sword through the air to block against the next incoming attack. Rotating his sword and wrist as needed as he danced on the wind to block each incoming attack. Using the momentum to increase his speed so that light itself could not keep up with his blade, already distorted from the cloak around him. Each deflection caused another burst of blacked wind to shoot out from his blade, as he focused purely on deflecting the attacks, waiting for an opening to appear in the near future for a definitive blow, allowing himself to be pushed back slowly through the air.

Each deflection caused another burst of blacked wind to shoot out from his blade, as he focused purely on deflecting the attacks, waiting for an opening to appear in the near future for a definitive blow, allowing himself to be pushed back slowly through the air. The heck with this. *Fox used spatial depletion, to appear 10 ft behind Lloyd, freezing time around himself, turning invisible and then firing a wave the size of 2 football fields upon Lloyd, in a massive dimensional slicing wave* *Glaring, Fox created a force-field around himself that repels any attack that is meant for evil purposes, then he wrapped the barrier in spiritual flame which can burn a soul, finally Fox formed fired a circular wave of fox-fire outward, up, down, left, right, and horizontally and vertically at once* Hopefully, I won't have to use -that- ability. I can think of something that may just stack the odds in my favor, hmm. As fox made his move his counter would be simple. With a flick of his hand he held behind his back the swords found themselves resonating at a loud frequency from the phantom energy he poured into the oncoming blades with each attack. This caused the blades to crack and shatter as Foxes attack was released behind him, Lloyd pushing forward, to impale this sword forward with a thrust upon the clone in front of him with the opening his disarming technique created, and spinning his body around to use Foxes own clone as a shield to absorbed the brunt of the attack while charging his energy through his blade. Once channeled he then thrust it forward to release a narrow beam at the heart of the attack, causing it to create a small opening at its center to flow around him, in sense dodging it.
The moment that attack was avoided, a black pulse went around the field once more, the levitated objects responding in resonance to the cut upon Foxes arm, as rocks, dirt, and water would be launched towards him, like his body was emiting a massive attractive pull for the objects to respond to, the attacks fox made would easily deflect this, but the atmosphere around him would be filled with dirt, dust and debris as Setsuna evaded the random attacks which approached him, dancing away from Foxes body to gain distance through the air.
