Uub: “ NO ! NO ! NOOOO ! I Refuse ! Im tired of playing your stupid little games ! ” He shouted out to Keyth who had already vanished, Lu’s voice being heard by no one but the tunnels walls that shook at the vibrant energy exerting his voice bouncing among wall to wall. Swiftly picking up one of the wooden logs from the ground the now distant Lu would seat himself among one of the logs. “ You’ve got to be kidding me “ He lightly sighed placing both his hands on his pony tail pulling the white band that held it firmly into a ponytail slowly pulling it out allowing his hair to fall freely among his shoulder, Lightly sighing in relief Lu would look to the wooden log scattered among the floor “ Alright , Lets get to work “ Lu quickly rose up from his seated position on the log staggering his way towards the first log he had come across. He slightly bent over pushing his hands firmly on it’s base rolling it towards the log he seated himself upon pulling it over its base seating it firmly on top of each other. “ One down “ Turning towards the rest of the longs “..forty-nine to go “ 30 minutes passed Lu being on his forty fifth log would pant among one of them his breathing growing heavier due to his body temperature gradually falling, Lu turned toward the remaining 5 logs staggering among the ground lost between which way was left or right. Lu attempted to push two logs at the same time it took a couple failures out of pure frustration Lu would slam his fist among the log, “ DAMMMN IT !! Gahh ! “ Cracks grew among the place he slammed his hands among quickly he would lift the long up with ease launching it at the pile of logs, The log landing vertically among the stacked logs Lu eyes darted open at sight of what had just happen when Keyth told him he was gonna make an animal out of him he didn’t believe him but now that he had a glimpse of what an animal was he began to fear his safety he began to fear his sanity. All those years of work his he and his grandfather had done was now about to be for nothing was he becoming his father, Lu quickly shook his head he had no time to think such wretched thoughts he had to get out of here and he was running out of time. Lu placed the four remaining logs around the stack of logs that stood a great 5 feet 8 inches. Lu quickly climbed it sitting himself among the vertical log. Referring back to his Chi training with Densuke, who seated himself legs crossed among the other as his hands laid firmly on his knees only difference was that Lu allowed his fingers to touch his thumbs slightly bending upon contact a triangle forming in it’s center , Lu slightly tilted his head over his hair covering his face completely. He felt his body drop a stream of blue chi leaving his skin acting as an aura around his body. His chest grew as he began to inhale and exhale he quickly swung his head back the logs quickly catching on fire being engulfed by blue flames ((http://th06.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2010/357/e/2/shioon_meditating_2_by_sentrythe2310-d35jjla.jpg)) The encircled him Lu quickly launched his body off of the stack of logs rolling among the tunnel grounds watching as it caught flames, He heard the tunnel begin to rumble as an opening slowly opened before , Lu sighed in relief lightly crawling to the light the stars set for him he felt the cool breeze travel through his hair , “ Hell yess “

Thunrian: ( http://www.listenonrepeat.com/watch/?v=paPFl5WMZqs ) Within the inside of the cave like tunnel it would have seemed like time had passed rapidly. And when lu had made his exit through finally he'd see that he'd be outside once again and The sun was already in the sky by high noon. The insects chirped and clicked in response all throughout the area as the sun beamed down on the humid forrested jungled area. he'd be greeted with none other than a man. With long flowing black hair under a straw hat of some sort. The man had been none other than 'Matsumanta Kaito Legendary twister blade of the New America wastelands' He was one of the crimnials in the New America prison holds for his attempts at killing high political officals and the such for a high pay. He had been in prison for over 20 years... and is extremly dangerous. Keyth had personally paid for him to be released in exchange for Lu's training. Though Densuke said he'd pay him back the full 500,000 tanz that it cost to get the guy. Standing in the middle of a field white doves floated all sat around his body before he lifted his katana and slightly unsheated it. ( http://media0.giphy.com/media/4Ev0Ari2Nd9io/giphy.gif ) The doves began to flow all around his body in response to the man's blade. He swung his blade once and all of the birds bodies exploded into slashes of blood and guts. " You are the one I must fight for my freedom..." He said looking at Lu through the corner of his eye. Keyth who had been sitting on a tree not to far off in the middle of the grass plains had spoke out. " What do you do when your fighting an opponent and your not armed!?" Keyth said to Lu with a smirk on his face. If Lu looked at Keyth who had been sitting in a tree eating an apple he'd have Lu's blade that had been given to him in his hand tossing it up and down. He had taken it from him when he dashed by him and out of the tunnel the first time. " When your fighting an opponent that wants to kill you! What do you do!? It's you or him! Your unarmed! If he wins he gets his freedom! But if you lose then the girls, you die, and everything you've ever worked for dies! WHAT. DO. YOU. DO!?" Keyth said shouting from the top of his lungs before he shut up simply eating the apple as he watched everything begin to go down. " Face me.. young one. And die with honor..." He said pulling his blade up and pointing it at Lu.( http://www.listenonrepeat.com/watch/?v=taAeBe8_-4A ) And within the blink of an eye he'd be right infront of the male with his blade pulled back the ground had errupted in half as he moved at the speed of light it almost looked like. He'd be right in Lu's face, eying him as his eyes had been locked onto his own. " I can see it in your eyes... you are no killer... you lack conviction.. this will be... AN EASY KILL!" He pulled the blade up so quickly that if it connected it would have slashed a deep diagonal slash down lu's chest with so much force that it would have blasted him back by 10 feet into the grass if it had connected to his skin. Pulling the attack forward with his right hand. ( http://25.media.tumblr.com/12e36e4a71debd4cdae8e1a21bf705af/tumblr_mqh6cpmSGW1r03uwto1_400.gif ) The speed would have been inhuman, flowing with a hellish and almost demonic flow. If it connected a burst of blood would ripple from Lu's body that would have left him heavily stunned had it connected. Though if it had missed some how, He would have taken a step back by 3 feet and continued for another attack. If it had been dodged then he would have taken the flow of the dodge in attempts to push his back towards Lu and roll of him ( http://funnymama.com/store/130806/201905_v0_600x.gif ) So they'd do a 360 like spin before he pulled off two seconds afterwards attempted to hack at Lu's waist with his blade, attempting to cut him right in half with the swift right hand horzontial strike that happened 2 seconds after he pulled off from the 360 spin they had did just a few momnents ago.

Uub: Lu quickly pushed back as soon as there body disrupted from a 360 spin, Lu pounced back staring at his opponent eyeing down his blade, In search of any sudden movement “ Damn it.. You don’t get it do you I do have a weapon bub.. “ Lu quickly dug his hand into the grounds his palms filled with dirt and particles drifting from the emptiness between his finger. He held his head low allowing the wind to bring his long black hair into animation where it would soon imitate the movement of the winds following it’s every direction. “ … The world is my weapon ! “ Following these words would be the clapping of his hands Lu would attempt to use these like he would a smoke pullet. Which if were to be successful would rob the man of his sight of Lu, Lu would then take this to his advantage pushing his body upwards landing upon the tip of the men's blade with his toes only , But his toe nails would be laid firmly against the blade which if successful would allow Lu to quickly attempt a 360 spin on the tip of the blade , Forcing his fight foot outward in search of a collision with the palm of his foot and the man's skull. If this were successful Lu would quickly use to blade as leverage to simply leap over the man grabbing hold of his shoulder, He would be left standing on his arms on the base of the mans shoulder quickly attempting to spin his legs pulling his weight towards where Lu would land if he were to do a backflip attempting to perform a double backflip with the man. If successful Lu would have the man thrown over his shoulders, As soon as Lu’s feet touched the ground. this would allow ((http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lnc04jjek41qcfba3o1_500.gif)) to Lu attempting to throw a barrage of punches into the mans chest every 10 punches ended with a head after 30 punches, The man would slip from Lu’s point of rich slashing his sword at Lu’s feet who quickly fell back a stream of bloosing running down his ankle , The man then came down with one more whipping of the sword aimed down at Lu was now on the floor. Lu quickly rolling would grab a rock while he rolled forcing his body to stop at the midst of a tree facing the man on his sides quickly launching the rock at his eye. Once it was hit the man would fall to his knees as blood began to pour for his right eye. He groaned in pain while placing his hand over his right eye blood pouring out of the creases in his fingers. he slightly raised his body up wielding his blade in his left hand aiming it at Lu’s chest. “ Just for that I’ll have you die slowly boy ! “ Following those words would be the disappearance of his feet due to his inhumane speed, A trail of dust following his feet leading from where he once stood Lu quickly pounced back moving his body out of the blades reach (( http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140316145406/yakuza-mob-roleplay/images/a/a9/3555383-1031214123-tumbl.gif)). He quickly ducked one reaching for a rock and as he saw another attempt come at him by the man with the blade Lu would quickly throw the hand that held the rock in the blades way forcing it to make contact with the rock it’s edge being caught within it. Lu would quickly pull the blade back with the rock back with an excessive force unarming the man. The man would quickly force a kick into Lu’s lower abdomen kicking him a far distance. Lu rolled the blade still caught within the rock .” Give me back my blade boy “ The man commanded Lu his hand still covering his right eye. “ You want it “ Said Lu placing the sword face down on the ground digging it’s tip in the dirt. He would then force his feet on the end of the blade while pulling the grip of the sword the other way quickly splitting the blade in half “ Come get it “ Lu shouted before charging at the man, the man quickly putting his guard up Lu stopping at 2 feet away from him ducking to where his shoulder would be aligned with the man's waist quickly tackling him. This would force the two to too roll upon the grass both trading fist, Lu using the grip of the blade to puncture the man’s skull ending the roll , Lu quickly sat on his chest repeatedly jabbing yje grip of the blade at his face , the mans face completely unrecognisable. The blood jumping from his face covering Lu’s skin, Lu quickly stopped at sight of the man who laid there unable to move a muscle , Lu slowly stood eyeing down Keyth wiping the blood from his face “ Happy “ It would seem as if Keyth wasn’t due to the series of training that followed after that fight which drove Lu mad , Days have past on that island and it felt like years losing track of time little did Lu know that his little glimpse of hell was almost over

Keyth:( http://0-media-cdn.foolz.us/ffuuka/board/a/image/1367/45/1367450193100.gif ) To the young man's response Keyth simply lit a cigeratte in his mouth, taking a drag on it before he tilted his head back with a smile and let the smoke fume from his nose in a cloudy screen of white that flowed around his face. ( http://youtu.be/Ryzm-Slxuro ) " Am I happy?" Keyth said looking down at the young man before he tossed his dagger back at his feet. " That man has killed innocent lives, children, women... whatever he could to get his job done. And he was gonna kill you to... Aren't you happy? Shouldn'y you be happy? Because of what you did just now... he'll never hurt anyone ever again.." Keyth said standing up. " You would have just been another spec' on his bloody list of death. Don't you see? He had to die... There was no way around it. No alternative... this man was a killer and he had to die..." Keyth said leaping off the ledge and walking over to Lu. " This isnt a comic book... this isnt an Anime... this is real life kid. And sometimes... you have to kill a son of a bitch... Sometimes you gotta make some die, and be out of the picture permantly because they won't stop no matter how hard you plead... in this game. From my side, and your side... this game of cat and mouse... or your case.. owl and mouse. You have to kill people... Don't turn it into a habit. You kill when its nesscary.. when it's needed. Don't be like me... my hands are stained with blood. But yours dont have to be..." Keyth turned to see a group of his men about 20 of them all waiting for Keyths command. " Anyways... trainings far from over..." Keyth said taking a step back. " This has been a check point... few more days and you'll be at Mt.Thunder... were giving you another headstart.... At the top of Mt. Thunder... its cold... better find some kind animal to wear or your gonna die... and freeze to death... get moving.." By the time Keyth had spoke, Lu had already been on the move that's if he said something to keyth in response at first and all. Days passed... and as Lu would have been gaining onto the mountain...the climate would have changed drastically, snowing heavily at the top of the mountain. Keyth had taken a back way and had gotten there before Lu where he sat in a room with the 'hostage.' They had been in an old run down military fortress. Apparently used during WW3 At some point. Over 50 of Keyths Arasumaru lurked around in this area. Making sure to kill and detain the young man if any of them saw him. (How the base looked, though of course it's snowy ->>>> http://cdn2-b.examiner.com/sites/default/files/styles/image_content_width/hash/b8/01/b801daf9497958653a5506056560adbe.jpg?itok=usSJp6L6 ) Keyth sat in the room with the hostage, it had been the last day and Lu had exactly 24 hours to get the girl out before Keyth would make his move on killing her. "... Keep the secrucity on level 10. He'll be here... don't... underestimate him. And don't...let your gaurd down." " SIR!" They all shouted at once as they scattered from the large meeting place making there patrols throughouth the base. Keyth took a set next to the knocked out hostage who appeared to asleep in a chair. "... Don't worry... your wonder boy's on his way..." He said letting the cigar sit in his mouth.

Uub: Days that seemed like weeks passed Lu climbed that snow fill mountain that reeked of death with one thought in his mind saving that girl and getting home. As Lu traveled up the mountain his hair swaying at his back acting as a cape as it flowed beneath the frost coated winds. Lu all suddenly fell to his knees he held his arms staring at his breath caused by the winds, frost beginning to form on his brows. He stood on his knees noticing he’s been approached by four legged creatures in the distance but he couldn’t catch a glimpse of them due to his vision failing him Lu was soon out cold on the winter snow…. Lu had awoken to stream of smoke leaving a campfire Lu lightly opened his eyes his view caught by a man.. but he wasn’t a man.. looked more like a monkey mixed with a cave man.. the man was oddly shaped he held much hair on his chest and much more on face that covering every inch of his skin he circled Lu sniffing his hair a bit “ Hey .. Hey stop that “ Lu scrambled a bit lightly pushing him away as he retracted his body back. The man stood up beating his staff against the ground “ I am Shinko “((http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130129003802/disney/images/e/ee/Rafiki_KHII.png)) He quickly squatted completely violating Lu’s personal space he lightly poked at his nose “ And who might you be ? “ he questioned Lu his eyes remained on him not giving any sign of any sudden movement “ .. The names NightOwl.. “ Lu muttered quickly pulling himself back to his feet he turned towards the door noticing Bears marching into the room they gave off a light rawr at the man, He quickly waved his hand “ It is fine .. he is not one of them “ Shinko told them with most comforting words. “ One of them ? “ Lu questioned lightly rubbing his head “ Yes the men in those armor they have been poisoning these woods since they’ve showed up here and they must be stopped “ Lu gave him a quite smug look “ What If I told you I can help you take these guys out “ Lu stood up firmly circling the man “ I can help you take out each and every one of them “ Lu grimace while awaiting an answer “ Sounds very promising .. but what’s in it for you “ Lu slightly tilted his chin giving off a sly smirk “ Well lets just say a certain man over there owes me .. “ Shinko lightly nodded his head Lu nodded along with him giving the pack of Bears a stern look “ … Keyth told me act on instinct no time to plan just act.. well it’s about that time “ Lu reached for a piece of wood beating against the wall while lightly sharpening it’s tip to where it would be as sharp as ever. “ Ehh may I ask what you are doing .. NightOwl ..“ Lu looked back at him “ Well I'm making a weapon” Shiko lightly chuckled “ hahaha.. wood ? why mess with wood when we have Iron” Shinko slightly narrowed his hands out to a group of bears that held iron weapons locked at the grasp of their teeth. Lu grinned a bit “ Ooo I'm loving it “ Lu chuckled picking up one of them analyzing it an Owl then shot through the window landing upon Shinkos staff it placed it’s beak in shinto ear his expression quickly changing. Suddenly he kneeled before Lu the beards following him Lu lightly raised a concerning eyebrow. “ You are him.. the blue flame “ It had seemed that was the very owl that save Lu’s life twice and he never left his side analyzing his every movement referring it back to Shinko where they looked to Lu as a god. The savior they’ve been waiting for since then they’ve acted at Lu’s every command preparing for their attack on that camp. This time for once and for all Lu will end this and save that girl...-c-

Lu stood in the midst of the cold wind that winter night in his lion coated sweater his eyes analysing every corner of the camp. Lu squatted down a bit creating a plan by sliding his fingers against the base of the snow. “ The girl.. should be here.. Go in there cause hell get her out and slip out of there seems like a good enough plan right ? “ Lu quickly looked up the owl landing on Shinkos staff who stood at his side the Owl whispered into his ear once more Shinko looked towards him “ He has found the girls location follow him and he’ll take you there we’ll cover you Lu lightly nodded jumping on one of the bears back “ Lets roll “ Lu commanded the Owl shout out into the sky a flock of owls following him soon swallowing up the sky out shining the stars flying over the camp, Lu quickly swung his iron sword up((http://www.listenonrepeat.com/watch/?v=V6CwrwWSL3Y)) “ GOOOOOO ! “ they all ran down the hill charging at the camp in fierce numbers ,((http://www.residententertainment.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/vlcsnap-2013-04-20-20h07m54s14.png)) The guards that stood before the door shooting but constantly missing due to their overlapping fear Lu quickly swinging at the bullets with his sword, As he made it to the gats he would swing his sword slashing at one of the guards neck while he was still in motion the guard falling among his back , (( http://static.tvtome.com/images/genie_images/story/2013/s/Spartacus%20301_GIF%201.gif )) Shinko quickly followed. The bears rampaged through the gates Lu making a slight turn with his bear while Shinko along with the other bears acted as a distraction. Lu followed the owl towards the room that Keyo held the girl in .The owl stopped at a window that was held up in a tower like building. Lu allowed his bear to charge at the tower while he slowly stood up on it’s back quickly attempting to keep his balance Lu focused his knees forward quickly launching his body upwards attempting to bust through the window doing a front roll forward within the room. (( http://www.fanaru.com/spartacus/image/18552-spartacus-spartacus-the-jump.gif)) And If Keyth were to be there He would quickly focus in a 360 spin towards Keyth narrowing his sword at Keyths nick completely covered in blood, He’d look eye to eye at Keyth just so he can witness the monster he himself created. “ Let the girl go .. it ends here “-e-
