Genin spars. (Zyxis)

[We're going on as if the Kick was used after body flicker ending]

The genin swordsman smiled and as the other two prepared to go into battle, so did Ryūka. As Zyxis performed the Ram handseal, Ryūka started running towards Hoshi. It was odd. The technique Zyxis used seemed to have boosted his speed but they were moving at the same speed, with Ryūka just one step ahead because he hadn't stopped to use the Ram handseal like Zyxis, but had taken that time to take that first step.

As they moved, Zyxis seemed to be locked into action, unable to perform another technique, while Ryūka unsheathed his katana. As they both arrived near Hoshi, Ryūka realised Zyxis going for a kick. With his previous speed boost technique seemingly finished, Zyxis in his flying kick, appeared to be moving slower than him now. Ryūka dashed in between the two other genin, to push the mid-air kick of Zyxis out of the way with his right hand, as his left fist would aim a punch at Hoshi's guts.

Ryūka didn't know why, he just felt like punching Hoshi in the gut for some reason.

Hoshi was overwhelmed as both genin's immediately dashed towards him at blinding speeds. He had only began the fight and already he was target number one, which because of his provocations was exactly what he wanted. Though seeing this he thought there would be no way to get out of this unscathed. The jutsu used by Zyxis seemed to boost his speed immensely whilst the mysterious Ryuka instead of using a jutsu simply ran at a blinding speed already. Thinking down his possibilities in a moments notice. 

Remembering his bag to which he brought drinks and practiced with this morning was simply 6 metre's away all he needed to do was to perform the hand signs quick enough Tiger Boar. They were halfway there. Closing in on him. Ox Dog. They were right infront of him. Though Zyxis seemed to slow down abit Ryuka did not, Before ending the jutsu ,to which he did the last sign just barley to late, The fist of Ryuka landed firmly into his gut. The pain spread instantly as it wasn't just a punch. But directed towards a vital as well ,But gritting through the pain and spit coming out of his mouth ,the final gesture was performed and Hoshi appeared 6 metre's away though the substitution should buy him some time. He prepared himself in a defensive stance

Zyxis, simply landed, not wasting any time as he began to run backward. At the moment that Ryūka had hit Hoshi in the gut, Zyxis had landed and was already moving. He used the Ram seal once again as he first took a step, no delay in the movement since he could move his arms at the same time he moved his legs. He blurred forward at [Speed 40] towards Hoshi.

Everyone knew that Substitution was only an illusionary technique like all the other E-Rank ones they had learned at the Academy. His body vanished once again. Since the push had only knocked him barely a meter away, he flashed forward to where Ryūka was. The reason why he used the Body Flicker was that, physically, Ryūka was faster than him.

He appeared in front of Ryūka at [Speed 40] and instantly lashed out with a fist towards his chin and if that connected he would throw another fist at his chest.

[Your flicker is in CD Zyx, i'll assume you ran instead]

Ryūka smiled as he recognized the handseals Hoshi was performing. It was a jutsu he had taught Zyxis after all. Hoshi did a fatal mistake of choosing to use a Jutsu with too many handseals, while standing still, and not even attempting to run away from Ryūka or even attempt dodge his strike. The punch would have landed, if not for Ryūka choosing to stop the Jutsu from being performed instead, breaking the handseals by attacking Hoshi's forearm (the one closer to him) with his palm, pushing it to break away from the other hand. 

At the same time, He let Zyxis land and prepare his next move without attempting to give him any trouble about doing so. He pushed Hoshi away, to put a 2m distance between himself and Hoshi so he could focus on Zyxis. 

Zyxis didn't blur, nor did he disappear and reappear, but ran straight towards him. Ryūka was still smiling. He was confident he had this. As Zyxis attacked him with a punch using his right fist, Ryūka would simply dash to his right and Zyx' left, getting out of his range with ease, given the speed difference between them. Since the first punch did not hit, Zyx would not throw a second one. With his short, swift and subtle movements, Ryūka would have put Zyxis right in between himself and Hoshi, 1m away from him and 2m from Hoshi. (So they would be in a straight, 3m line)

[All actions max speed yada yada]

Hoshi was through with these people treating him like a rag doll. He kept getting knocked around easily even with Ryuka trying to push him away in an instant, as if too see hoshi's too pathetic an opponent to even try against. Hoshi needed to resist the push with his superior strength [Ryuka 20 vs Hoshi 25] , only barely, reducing the what would be 2 metre's into a simple 30 cm push. Right at this moment Zyxis was fully focused onto Ryuka, of course the major threat with such high level speeds without even using the slightest bit of jutsu, which gave an opportunity to attack Zyxis. But Zyxis is probably the easier foe to beat. With the priority being Ryuka.

As Zyxis appeared to miss Ryuka and so with that dodge Hoshi thought it a perfect time to also dash a small distance -of 0.6 metre's- Attacking Ryuk'as left side with not a normal attack no. More like a bestial swing. Since this was a practice session Hoshi could practice this technique (gives no advantages since not completed). With these swings he would turn around trying to rapidly hit Ryuka if even a single attack missed he would keep going to slay him down and with this Hoshi glanced towards Zyxis with a slight nod as if too say we should co-operate for now.

If Hoshi would miss an attack he would continue. If he got hit he would continue *Unless powerful enough to greatly knock the wind out of him* His goal was less to win. And more too see these enemies fight back as he tries to become more animalistic. With his old childhood nickname being the demonic hunter. As even within this state all Hoshi would have on his face is a gigantic grin with glee as he focuses on his foe

Zyxis couldn't help but be irritated with the situation right now. Ryūka knew that he was faster than both of them. So they weren't able to flee nor were they able to create a jutsu with their close proximity. The only tactic that Zyxis had come up with was using Body Flicker to increase his speed enough to the point where he could actually hit him. He couldn't engage in Taijutsu since he didn't have a good enough grasp on the moves he had just learned, and any basic attacks would be forfeit. So all he could really do was wait and think. Although, there was one jutsu that he didn't use yet. It was the Haze Genjutsu. Maybe he would be distracted enough for him to actually land a solid hit for once in the fight.

He held out his palm towards Ryūka. Soon he and Hoshi would disappear from Ryuka's view and be replaced by a forest similar to Kumogakure's own. As soon as it took effect, chakra would already have been channeled through his body, and with a Ram hand seal, and he would have appeared in front of Ryūka with [40 Speed]. Without wasting any time he placed all of his chakra enhanced and strengthened fist into his diaphragm, sending him sprawling. At that point, he would have been severely disoriented from the blow and Genjutsu that he would probably not be able to get up quickly. He would then turn to Hoshi with his hands in a Snake symbol, a three-meter-long cone of electricity heading towards him at [10 Speed] and shocking him, locking up his muscles and causing his face to twitch with [10 Power]. While he was being electrocuted, Zyxis would rush forward, slamming his fist into Hoshi's face. Just like he had wanted to the whole entire training session.

He would then settle into a fighting stance, waiting for Ryūka or Hoshi to come at him, both two meters away from him, so six meters away from each other in a straight line.

Spoiler:

Ryūka was smiling, enjoying this friendly spar between friends. When he dodged the attack of Zyxis, he could barely hold himself back from saying, "Wow, friend, this is sure a fun friendly fight we're having. Thanks for your friendly company!". He didn't though, since he had to look tough for the fight, instead he prepared himself to avoid Hoshi's attacks. And he thought, given Hoshi's superior strength, it was time to spice things up, rather than  blocking him or dodging as before. As Hoshi dashed towards him, Ryūka's body turned into smoke. 

As Hoshi attacked him, his punch went through the smoke that Ryūka now was. Then, in this new form, Ryūka noticed Zyxis reaching out to him from a distance, as he thought "That's never gonna hit." as he was teleported into a forest. "What?" he thought, not understanding what was happening, "Oh. This must be a Genjutsu. No other explanation really. If it was a real space-time technique, it would have taken either Zyxis or Hoshi, whoever used this technique, a much longer time to do this and I would have noticed. Like Damon, Genjutsu users just need subtle movements to use their techniques... Kinda broken actually...". Ryūka started being pulled into a swamp. "Of course..." he thought, "Why not? Damn. Should have paid more attention at the academy, I guess... I can't even remember which handseals were used to break out of Genjutsu... Oh well... I'll wait it out I guess...". Zyxis' attack on Ryūka would also go through him. "Who does this?" Ryūka thought, broken, "To a friend?"

OOC:

As Hoshi began to use a primitive version of the Passing Fang -pretty much for now a flashy yet somewhat effective move which replaces a bog standard punch- As he connected to Ryuka he felt himself go through him! Did Hoshi accidently kill Ryuka, Was it a trick, was it a jutsu? Ok last one seems alot more realistic as the body turned to smoke (Not an ordinary thing for humans to do. But hey this world is pretty damn crazy) But damn just as he prepared himself to attack Ryuka he just flat out bailed on me that moment.

Even though the assault would've been worthless it would still be great practice to fight such a fun foe, But still there was one foe who he still could swing at with the name of Zyxis. The small squirt who's fast and rapid with moves yet looks pretty exhausted ,as if reaching his limits. Infact this very foe was preparing to attack him with a slow move. A jutsu? What kind? How much would it hurt him?

Unlike the Ram technique this was snake? What could it even be? Who cares ,and with an internal chuckle, let's see who is stronger then. The jutsu about to be used at a powerful force towards his head. Or the Iron claw about to be used against his opponents head. Since Zyxis went towards his opponent he was close enough for a trade between the two just 0.5 metre's apart. Hoshi unlike the beginning of this fight was hunched abit with a constant simle and deep breathes as he could of easily just dodged this attack. But instead he wanted to see who would be stronger in this quick exchange!

[35 strength 25 spd from attack]

Spoiler:

Zyxis frowned as he saw Ryūka vanish into smoke. His face took on one of sadness, and Zyxis felt bad. He would have to explain himself later. Hoshi began to move towards him. Even though they weren't that far away, the jutsu was only one hand seal, Lightning hit Hoshi, electrocuting him and locking up his muscles. Even though his muscles locked up, he was still coming at him fast with the Iron Claw Technique. He immediately used Inside to Outside Block, with an open hand. His [25 Speed] was just enough to match Hoshi's, maybe even faster since he had just been electrocuted.

He weaved between the Iron Claw, as it was aimed for his head and the Inside to Outside Block was used to arms and attacks that were above the stomach. He was easily able to move out of the way and slam his palm into Hoshi's chest with [20 Strength]. He didn't stop there. As he was hit, he brought his other fist up and uppercut him since he was still bringing his arm up and was just knocked back by his palm.

He would then begin to move back after the second hit, starting to move a meter away from Ryūka who was still in a fog, literally and metaphorically, and Hoshi who would still be recovering from the hits if they connected.
