Ain't No Mountain High Enough [P]

Takeo shook his head. "Not that I recall. Honestly I forgot about it almost completely. When father finally kicked the bucket I didn't have time to care about the past much." Takeo moved from the chair he sat in, and looked out the window once more. "How amusing. It turned out that after all that, your actual home was Tengakure and not Kirigakure. And yet you had it destroyed to rebuild this tragic place." He laughed, turning around and making his way towards the door. "I won't stick around long. If you can find someone to run the place, you're welcome to join me on my travels." It was a strange offer, perhaps Takeo now understood why he had stuck around with Xyxer for so long. This 'family bond' thing that people had harped on about to him years before when he had neglected his family in favour of life as a shinobi of Tengakure. "And fix your hair colour, no relative of mine should be walking about with blue hair." That was the last thing he said before exiting the room, the sound of his bitchin' heels tapping against the floor echoing throughout the otherwise empty building.

It appeared it was time for some brotherly banter. You know, banter banter. The banter like in A Song of Ice and Fire where one brother (not naming names 'cause i don't want to get banned) pushed the face of his other brother, a rather mutty guy, into fire. That kind of brotherly banter. So, naturally, as Takeo stood and spoke, so did Xyxer towards Samehada. A few smirks arose, and when he was starting to walk out of the room, Xyxer decided it was time for some CHEEKY BANTER, lifting Samehada and simply jogging towards Takeo with a lazy horizontal swing, wondering if they'd get a cheeky nandos after the ordeal.

Ah, it seemed Xyxer wanted to engage in some sort of 'brotherly bonding'. Despite Takeo's usual attentive nature, he didn't actually pay attention to Xyxer's actions for the most part. However when the boy had swung the sword in his direction, Takeo finally noticed. Not that he cared much however, his automatic defence activated itself and would surely defend. "I don't feel like playing ga-" He began to retort, until he felt the shield fail as the chakra in the OWR was absorbed away, the sword continuing on through. Naturally, he should have predicted such a thing. His chakra flared upwards in response, One Way Road being reactivated at it's full power in response in order to stop the sword dead in it's tracks, and send it rebounding away as if it had been parried. Takeo spun about, his own blades being activated and becoming unwound from his wrists. Flicking his arms outwards, the Bararaq Sei blades would arc out like lightning towards the boy in response. Naturally, this wasn't at his full strength or speed. Takeo was very much aware that Xyxer had not put much effort in the assault to begin with.

Samehada grinned at the absorption of chakra, feeding him even more. He spun around some when the parry occurred, the event confusing him.. As if the boy had a force field! Like X-Men! Whooaaaaaa! He knew the boy however, as the blade continued to be spun due to the parry. He was smart and capitalised on weakness. So he'd be trying to attack him when his back was turned. Naturally, since the active usage of OWR was used, Samehada was being moved around at 150 speed. That meant Xyxer could easily spin around and bring it back torwards his torso to defend as the sei shit was thrown by Takeo. Naturally, the stopping of the spinning was a bit difficult but he anchored his feet, allowing the blades that probably had lightning on them to strike the bandaged skin of Samehada, if it continued. He grinned towards the boy, "Good job not losing your neck this time."

If Xyxer had failed to have blocked his weapons, Takeo would not have ceased the attack. It would be an insult to the way they had done things for as long as they had known each other. Retracting the two blades back into the grip of his hand with a slight rotation of his wrists, the shield around him would fade away as it was deactivated. The comment at the event of one of their previous spars made Takeo all too aware of the jagged scar that lined his collar bone on his left side. A slight smirk beckoned itself, "It seems this time you at least have the courtesy to not put your entire strength into an attack for no reason, brother." It felt odd leaving his mouth, Takeo running his mouth along his teeth after speaking. "My offer still stands, I'll be heading back to the mainland in a week or two. Maybe longer, it depends if I run into any good bars in this refugee camp." He spun again, and disappeared out of the room.

Takeo assumed that most people would have reacted slightly differently to this entire thing.

Shame Takeo wasn't like most other people really.

It was a word Xyxer did never expect to hear directed towards himself. He only knew brothers in combat, the blood pact he had made with Kenchi.. Now it was said to him by a brother of the flesh. Smiling a little, he offered a small wave towards Takeo as he started to leave, a few words escaping his lips, "Try to not cause too much trouble, Takeo. I don't quite feel like destroying a village because you got too sassy." and with that, the boy was most likely gone. Probably to AFK a shit load.
