Ash was wondering why Jason hadn't clawed Shade's underbelly yet

Well, maybe because everytime he wounded Shade, all that came was a bit of blood before black ooze. It wouldn't do any good.

Jason hooked his claws into Shades' rib cage, ignoring the black goo that got on him as he swung his brother to the side. "Just give up!"

Shade fell to the ground, but stood, shaking. "No, you know we both want each others heads. I'm not walking away from this!"

"Maybe that's true, we both do. But." He used his tail to sweep Shades' talons from under him. "Do we really? We're brothers, after all."

Shade snarled, standing and latching his jaws around Jason's neck.

Jason roared in pain as Shade slammed him to the ground, getting on top of him and slamming his wings against him.

Shade clamped his jaws over Jasons' head and bit down, hard.

Jasons' body writhed in pain, blood starting to come and drip down his scales.

Shade dug his back talons into Jason's underbelly, ripping back the layer of pure white scales.

Ice Shade gasped, talons covering his little snout.

Ash couldn't just stand by anymore, and Puck felt the same. They both just jumped in, trying to get Shade off Jason

Shade shoved at them with his wings, jaws letting go of Jasons' head as he snarled at them.

T.D.M sighed. "Let it run its course. Do not step in." She said calmly, flicking a hand as the shadows around solidified and started raising a spiked wall around the two brothers.

Ash tried slicing the spikes with his sword

It did no good.

Jason shoved Shade off of him and got to a stand, breathing heavily due to his wounded underbelly. He threw himself against Shade, latching his teeth into his brothers neck.

Shade screeched, blood flowing into his throat as he tried to pry Jason off.

Puck tried to climb the spikes, Ash not giving up on trying to slice them yet

The Dark Mistress watched them. "Try as you might, the end result will remain."

Jason dug his teeth deep into Shades' flesh, refusing to let go until Shade stabbed his side with his stinger. He released, reeling back as Shade barreled into him full force.

"Then why don't you take your spikes down and we'll see if that's true or not?"

"I do not because then if either of you try anything, you just might die." She said without any emotion at all.

Shade rammed heavily against Jason, shoving him against the spike wall and ramming him over and over.

Jason roared in pain, loosing too much blood and starting to grow tired.
