(Part 3)

Grun charged at Cyan in a range, using the same stroke aimed for the neck. This time, he noticed that the wolf faunus had a sword in hand. Cyan excecuted a stroke that knocked Grun's dagger off course before he hopped back.

The rebel glared at the faunus as he took breaths. Cyan just stood there, before he traced his blade with his fingers, causing the sword to glow yellow and emit sparks, a sign that there was electric dust inside it. Then he stuck his blade to the water, embedding it to the shallow bottom of the swamp.

Confused, Grun took his chances and lunged at Cyan, who dodged it before taking a piece of ice dust and forming it into a spear.

"Time to go to work." Cyan muttered to himself before charging in.

As much of a swordsman Cyan was, he was no slouch with pole weapons as well, taking advantage of his ice spear to keep the rebel huntsman at range with proper strokes. Grun was having none of it and set his daggers ablaze using the fire dust within them, he aimed a downward stroke near the spearhead and shattered it.

Cyan immediately repelled Grun with a quick blow to the temple with his improvised ice staff. He looked at his broken dust weapon for a moment and dropped it, he then turned his back towards Grun and walked towards his sword, which had bubbles starting to form around it.

Grun took his chances and jumped towards Cyan, aiming to stab the faunus in the back.

Suddenly, his target disappeared, along with his sword, causing him to hit the water instead.

Then, there was a lound bang, Grun found himself flying through the air and into the fog, he hit the ground, the impact disorienting him. His aura was on critical levels as he struggled to get up and look.

"What the hell ... was that explosion?" he said. Then he felt that someone was eyeing him. He was prepared to fight in order to get out of here.

It didn't help much as he felt a blow to his solar plexus, knocking the wind out of him as it shattered his aura. His vision blurred and as it faded to black, he saw Cyan, with a now unsettling smile on his face.

"... I think I might have overdid that one." Cyan said to himself as he sheathed his blade, Grun's body was in a heap in front of him.

"I guess the hydrogen explosion was a bit powerful." he shrugged as he remembered Aster's result via electrolysis. He took a scroll off his pocket and said.

"Cy here, target neutralized, we have all of them now."

Now the hardest part of a mission, waiting to be picked up.
