Spar / Training

Yuri had decided to take her sleep at the training areas ever since her acceptance into tengakure due to her nature. She stretches herself in the morning and with some basic facilities that allowed her stay there extending till noon before the big meal, she would find a rock around anywhere sheltered and starts lying around like a good-for-nothing if no mission orders came to her sense of hearing. As for this morning, she had decided that she would slack off since the day started with a cooling weather. Forgoing a shade due to the weather, she simply lie down on the flat ground of the training ground worth at least a hundred meters wide, so much for the technology of the architecture that allows such wide and high training areas. She was sure that she heard "grounds" more than "towers" before coming in here. She looked down at the other end of the area with her vision able capturing half of the area due to her position.

A new presence... Yozora's crimson eyes opened. She was sitting in a corner of the training grounds, a field of open space just under the training towers. The girl was in a meditative pose, she was here from the early morning - training and such. In a bypassing shade of the cloudy sky her faint aura was invisible to other eyes. The weather today was not the best out of Tengakure's weather palette, but it did not bother the girl. She was trying to improve her concentration and master her doujutsu better. At least she used to be while she was alone, which she wasn't anymore. Her Meigan spotted somebody else in the field which was completely empty the last time they looked at it before closing. The person seemed to be another girl, laying on the ground. What immediately caught Yozora's attention was the amount of chakra leaking from the girl - it was far beyond any other Genin she had seen so far and not even half of Jounins in Tengakure had that much. The young konoichi got rather interested. For this she did not mind her meditation to be interrupted. She would sit and see what happens.

The cold, hard breeze disheveling the hair of Xyxer was met by a neutral expression; one that did not express a like of it nor a dislike. Instead, he somewhat greeted the wind that found it right to spoil his scruffy hair, his chin pointed at an angle as his eyes peered upwards into the sky. In fact, this boy was standing on top of one of the towers that littered the area so he was relatively hidden from the view of most. He'd accomplished so little during his life time, and he was angered. He was not just angry at himself however, he was angry at everyone around him. He had not been brought up to be a hero, he was brought up to be a villain. A villain that obeyed orders no matter what and killed innocents on the whim of his master. Was there any chance he would ever accomplish a great feat? He hoped that was the case. Attempting to wash those vile thoughts from his young mind, he peered down from the tower and by some feat of luck he had noticed someone, a person that was.. he wasn't even sure. However, after his recent bout with ninjas of Tengakure, he knew that these shinobi were in dire need of training. Nodding his head to himself as Xyxer acted upon his instincts. Activating his ring, armour encased the body of Xyxer, the armour known as "The Abysswalker". Now formally dressed to be a badass, he braced his legs for a moment as he focused on his "prey", and in a blinding display of raw speed, Xyxer disappeared from the rooftop at an incredible pace, one that would be rather hard for even a speedy shinobi to keep up with.

In just a matter of seconds, the demonic-looking figure would descend from the heavens and landed just a few meters away from the body of Yuri. As soon as his feet touched the ground, a shockwave expanded directly from his body (strength of 40 just so I don't actually end up killing you with it lol). Dust was also carried by the shockwave, giving the entire experience an almost surreal aspect due to how sudden this had unfolded. Thankfully, due to his armour, the shock of the landing was absorbed and did not falter Xyxer in the slightest. Standing, he awaited the dust to settle before he began to speak, he wanted this shinobi to fear for her life, he wanted to see how the ninjas of Tengakure really fought. As he spoke, his voice had somewhat of a mystical tone, not sounding as if it was from this realm, "A being has made a pact with me. I slaughtered them on a whim, but I shall cooperate with their last wish. To kill you."

Whatever Yuri can see peacefully settled themselves, or at least she would like to think so. But the next noise she heard ruins it all. It came from her right and from the feel of the vibrated stagnant air hinted her training had started as she turns her head to the right. It might be her first time looking at an concealed identity, though it looked strange to her it was not the time to spend her thoughts figuring out who the person might be. She could felt the slight gradual change of air that meant a calm before the storm but she is still lying down. Thankfully, she could time the strength of the impact even though the unknown person seems way above her league given his methods of surprise appearance. She knew that this opposing force that showed an area of impact will get to her when any shrapnel that spawned from this force or imbalance of the victim is ensured. Her only blade beside her at this point of time gave her an idea.

She unsheathed the blade immediately and expanded its width to roughly that of the length of her feet and pushed to recover herself up with her other free hand. If she chose to ran now it would had been stupid as the dust kicked up by this commotion is just 5 feet from her. She simply jumped with her right hand holding onto her expanded blade. With its tip slightly above and perpendicular to the ground and the blade being nearer to the impact than her body. She did a normal jump and felt the harsh impact coming at her, it would be now that she allowed her right leg to replace her right hand as contact to the blade as she gradually adjusted the sword from having its thickness facing the ground to having its width facing the ground instead depending of the force of impact. Her left leg had also felt the face of the blade by this point of time with the impact affecting the position of the blade. With the final shifting of her body weight to her left, an explosion of such caliber took her at least 2 meters off the ground, sending her at least meters worth double digits from the point of explosion. On her hang time on air now, she would think that she had her methods of participation since any hard contact would have been deflected by the blade's other face at this point of time facing the armored one and she shouts I'm flying !!!!!!!!!!!

Silently sitting there Yozora did not notice a shadow blink in the sky. Suddenly a new figure appeared in the field, landing not too far from the other girl, causing almost an explosion, a great noise and a lot of dust. With the blast cause by the landing and all the dust Yozora lost sight of the other girl, but she heard the new figure speak. The tone was that of a young man, but it sounded a bit weird. "A being has made a pact with me. I slaughtered them on a whim, but I shall cooperate with their last wish. To kill you." Yozora was quite sure those words were not meant for her, but most likely for the other person. Either way it sounded like a threat and by the time most of the dust was down the girl was already on her feet with her right hand on her katana's hilt, the weapon hanging on her back and the hilt over her right shoulder. When the dust cleared enough she could finally see the man. He wore a set of armor hiding his body and head. But even through all the gear Yozora could still see the chakra flowing out of his body. She was shocked - the man way more than the other girl, almost twice as much chakra. This was the first time Yozora had seen somebody with that much chakra in Tengakure. She had mixed feelings now. If she got a chance to test herself against the other girl she could call this a worthy, successful day. But now an even more powerful being manifested in front of her - she was unsure if this was an even greater luck, or a twist of fate which could lead to her demise. She was not sure if she should rejoice or despair. And so she just stood there, waiting to see what happened next, her Meigan active at all times.

No longer was the mind of Xyxer burdened by his physical form. He felt as if he had undergone an apotheosis, he was no longer just Xyxer, he WAS the Abysswalker. This person did not know who he was, to her, he was a real threat, and she would be right in believing that. As soon as he had noticed her begin to react to the shockwave he had created using his sheer STRENGTH, he moved his hand with practiced ease and drew out 4 shuriken, holding them loosely between his fingers on his left hand; with his right he dug in and pulled out a singular kunai with he held in a reversed grip. When the girl (Yuri) was left dangling in the air he acted swiftly, throwing one shuriken at Yuri from this angle at a trajectory which could not be ignored by the girl, he immediately used his immense speed to appear at the opposite end and threw another shuriken straight towards the same girl with deadly intent before he appeared at two other angles and threw his remaining shuriken straight at Yuri; all of this happening within a few seconds as the girl remained motionless in the air. However, that was not the end of it, Xyxer was the Abysswalker, and he needed to be feared. As such, he spun his kunai in his hand and made the handsign for the body flicker technique, using it to reach the position in the air that was just above Yuri that was invisible to the naked eye (210 speed for the movement). When he appeared there, the right leg of Xyxer would move upwards and swiftly back down towards the girl, catapulting straight into her chest unless something else was to occur.

With both her feet on her expanded blade, Yuri could at least balance herself in the air. Thankfully the height she is in allows her to have near undisturbed vision levels. She knows that she couldn't embrace the impact for even a moment as she looked around for the next movement anyone can make. Before she could see the armored, a small object could be seen propelling itself towards her. It was probably planned to flank her, which could very mean very well that he will not waste her time on air. The movement by the other was easily spotted due to the affected dust particles that were forced to move another way at the bottom of her eye. feeling the need to prepare herself, she formed a kunai quickly from her hand and deflects the flanking shuriken. While given the time to look elsewhere, she was quick enough to swing the same kunai to deflect the next one. However, there were 2 of them coming for her next from her lower part of her sight.

Deflecting both of them would be impossible with a single kunai. So she quickly another one with her left hand and deflected them both. However, she could not beat the last obstacle as a presence came close above her to only sense it. Decoy..... Her eyes lashes changed color immediately (200 speed) as she uses the strength of her left leg to react to the changing wind above her, pushing the blade to back her up from behind with the assistance of direction of the wind from the explosion. It was then the blade would have been pushed down hard, hard enough to allow his attack to get through the blade to her. Ugh! As she took the reduced impact done with a kick from above, she finally had enough time for her right hand to grab the handle of the blade again while descending faster than she had expected. It was then she re-sized the blade to its original width as she only had enough time to swing the blade from her back to her front as she stabs her sword on the ground with both hands and did a somersault to land without getting hurt. Thinking that whoever might land on her, she quickly uprooted her sword from the ground again, taking herself at least 10 meters away from the larger descending mass.

{Considering you're both at least twice as fast as me and you don't seem to be toning it down...}

Yozora remained an observer. The fight in front of her was clearly the fastest she had ever seen. It was so fast that actually she couldn't in fact even see it. Even with her Meigan active all she could catch were blurs of movement and occasional metal flashes. Whoever had landed back there was now actively attacking the other girl and from the looks of it she was fighting back. Luckily no attacks were coming this way. But the girl felt that this fight was way over her league. How could you fight an opponent you couldn't even see. Finally the fight seemed to have reached at least a temporal calm. Yozora could see the other girl and the figure she barely escaped a moment ago. She'd try to bring some sense into this. "What the hell is going on?!"

Xyxer descended towards the ground as he followed through with the kick; he had felt resistant during his flip so he knew that his kick had connected, so all was good. Flipping so that his momentum wouldn't carry into the ground, he'd descend down onto the ground and crouch slightly upon impact, his dark blue torn cloak that was wrapped around his neck and hung down his back jumped upwards a little before resuming it's position. He could tell there was someone else in the area as he could see a faint red light in the form of eyes a fair bit away. Perhaps collateral damage was not the best idea for now. He spoke with his calm and soothing tone, no longer sounding as ethereal as he did prior, "Who knew, one shinobi of Tengakure whom can actually fight. What a welcomed surprise. And what about our little guest, the timid little mouse who was too cowardly to help a stranger?" With a flick of his head, the male directed his gaze towards Yozora, his eyes hidden behind the shadow crafted by his helmet.

[Its purple if you are talking bout my eye lashes, its a small mistake so its okay.]

Yuri can now safely assume that she will be expecting a lot from whoever is standing in her vision as the other would expect of her. However, she was too focused on that to realize another on the training area but it was inevitable given the circumstances. She had to put a lot of effort for the exchange of blows even if it only occurred for less than a minute. Not the most suitable opponent for the comparison of power, she also come to see that her sheath was missing from her. It must have been blown away earlier on, I can't let my any of my arsenal fall to those hands if i had to keep up. Gripping onto the sword too tightly would meant weakness, but letting it go lightly would go against her, she must find the balance. She still can't see the person behind the armor, this would mean that hidden tricks are harder to be guarded against. This is especially true on some of the eyes. But it gave a new trick to her as she had encountered such a shinobi in her roaming in the wilds. It can only be used in the right moment but she also had to be mindful that this fight already has that and its just that she is considered to be too weak to be used against. She can't be sure if this is a good learning experience for her and get herself ready for any next possible move. To make it worse, there is now another fighter to be taken note of.
