V-Kornerupine-One had asked it to spar.
It accepted... hesitantly.
The Kornerupine was both a lot smaller and a lot less experienced than Labradorite was, and also had a habit of spontaneously setting themself on fire. It didn't want to accidentally hurt the other, nor did it was to be set alight. But the canine had been insistent, and Labradorite figured it'd be good for both of them to have a little sparring session.
It'd just have to be careful, that's all.
"Are you ready?" It'd get a nod in response. Then it'd reiterate "This is just a spar. No serious injuries." Because it felt like the corrupted gembound could use the reminder, given the almost hungry way Labradorite was being stared at. "You can start first." Then it'd settle into a defensive stance, waiting for the Kornerupine's first move.

What was Rue's motivation for challenging a creature over twice their size to a spar?
Boredom, mostly. And a habit of poor decision making and picking fights they can't win.
Besides, if V-Labradorite-One hurt them too bad- or dare say even chrystalized them- then the Labradorite would be the one punished. Y'know, no friendly fire and all that. And Rue knew that V-Labradorite-One wouldn't EVER break the rules. It was one of the big, silent, obedient ones. A real goody two-shoes.
So, Y'know, a little boring, but maybe this would make it a little less boring.
They watched the oil dripping off the gembound- funny, it wasn't even corrupted. But if that oil was anything like normal oil, then the Labradorite was probably AWFULLY flammable. One good spark and...
'This is just a spar, no serious injuries.' Oh right. The whole 'no killing your fellow forge members' thing applied to Rue just as much as it did to The Labradorite. That's no fun. At least they got to go first! Time to get this show on the road!
The underbelly seemed like a good place as any to start- The top was covered in spikes, and mostly out of reach anyways. Going directly under approximately one ton of swamp monster didn't sound super wise, but hey, Labradorite couldn't kill them.
Rue would dart forward, trying to sink claw or fang into Labradorite's flesh. They managed to do something but the oil was thick and slippery enough to hinder their attack. And the fact that Labradorite was, y'know, very big. It was a good start though, right?

As quick as a flash, The Kornerupine had darted towards it, and out of sight. Then it felt something sharp pierce it's flesh. It growled in pain, and it's first instinct was to drop it's weight down, crushing The Kornerupine if it wasn't fast enough... but it couldn't do that. Not without breaking the single rule of this spar. It didn't know if The Kornerupine was aware of how it had tied a hand behind it's back, but Labradorite was sure it was well aware.
If The Labradorite knew what a lawyer was, it may have sarcastically compared The Kornerupine to one.
So, it kicked a leg out where it approximated the hybrid to be, hoping to get it back in the open where it's have more options. This was hard when it couldn't SEE it's target, though. It felt something connect, heard a yelp soon after, and then The Kornupine was sprawled out in the grass a short distance away.

Rue was feeling pretty confident about it's strategy. Then it was regretting ever starting this stupid sparring session. It had overestimated it's ability to dodge, and underestimated the amount of damage even a nonlethal attack from a kaiju could do.
They heaved to their feet, still catching the breath that had been knocked from their lungs. Chaos whispered sweetly in their ears, and they allowed that song to reach a crescendo as they drew upon that power in an attempt to even the playing field, a little bit.
Tentacles burst from the ground, tangling around The Labradorite's legs, slipping against the oil but eventually finding purchase. Rue grinned, even as they felt a tentacle begin to bud and burst from it's left thigh, slapping irritatingly against their bruised flank. Ugh. They'd have to deal with THAT after this battle.

Labradorite jerked in surprise as something wrapped around one of it's legs, then it's other, then it's other.. It looked down to see horrid, writhing tentacles wrapped around it's legs, pulling as if trying to drag it down into the earth.
It'd tug at the tentacles that tangled it's legs, trying to break their grip. It'd yank each foot upward, forcing the tentacle to either release their grip or get torn out of the ground. One or two got severed but still remained coiled around a limb, writhing like a gigantic worm.

The Labradorite had made quick work of the trap that tried to ensnare it's ankles, but it was still a great distraction, providing an opening that Rue planned to take full advantage of. As The Labradorite tugged it's first foot free, they would dart in, hoping to get in some good old fashioned ankle biting.
Unfortunately, the tentacles got in the way more than anything else. Rue ducked and wove through the tangled thicket of corrupted limbs, but they were unable to actually get close enough to Labradorite to bite it.
Maybe they should just stick to magic. Its not like they could physically compete with The Labradorite, so why even try?

It could hear The Kornerupine running about beneath it, but it was impossible to see where exactly it was, with the tangle of corruption it had summoned. The Labradorite huffed. This was ANOTHER reason why it didn't like fighting those so much smaller than it.
It'd slowly turn, sweeping it's tail low against the ground in the hope of catching The Kornerupine with it. It felt the tentacles, slick with oil, pull and tug and tangle against it's tail, but it also felt something furred and arguably MORE chaotic slam against it's tail.

She was running, she was (trying to) bite, and then she was stuck to Labradorite's tail like it was some unholy combination of a fly swatter and fly tape. And Rue didn't like feeling like a bug.
The summoned chaotic limbs would slink back into the soil like awful, gigantic worms. Rue would try to summon a single large tendril, one good for slapping. Preferably right in Labradorite's ugly face. The tentacle breached the surface like a worm from dune, slamming against The Labradorite's chest.
