Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yuki chuckled as Hisaki dove into the fight head first, quickly launching an onslaught of attacks from his 'Realm Techniques'. "Hisaki is a bit different from most Shinobi. He likes to be the center of attention and loves to entertain crowds." He responded to Kaala, "Although, because of these attributes, one should not underestimate his power. I know for sure that he is above me in every which way." Except Genjutsu. He hates Genjutsu. Yuki finished the rest of his sentence mentally, remembering Hisaki's outburst about the Sound Nin using Genjutsu in all of the trials so far.

After his short explanation, two Kunoichi entered the room, one was Hastuma, the four-armed girl from the second match. The other girl was the fireball Oasis. The red-head appeared to not like Notwen that much as she had called him Snotwen when she asked about him. "It seems, as of now, that they are at equal level." Yuki answered before the bird boy. Next, Notwen tried to stealth into the forest, and did a better job than the Yamanaka would ever do, and tried to launch the same attack he had used on the dog in the Second Trial. However, Hisaki's reflexes beat the hands of the Barada Yoga away with the Sword of Oblivion. "This is, by far, the most interesting match yet." He commented again, as a small smirk crawled onto his face.

Kaala turned to the door as he heard the voice of the annoying red-head kunoichi. She entered the room and pointed a finger at him, asking how "Snotwen" was doing. Kaala was going to make an argument, but thought better of it. He was not going to stoop down to Oasis' level.
"My master is faring well so far. I would appreciate if you showed a bit more respect for your comrade, because he hasn't said anything ill of you." The phoenix-boy watched as the masked boy left the room. It seemed like he didn't want to be there while the red-head was there, which was understandable, but Kaala wanted to see the fight to the end. He turned his gaze back to the arena. Every so often there was a flash of red and blue, and a small burst of fire would peek out of the canopy. Suddenly Kaala saw Notwen break through the foliage and prepare a will o' wisp that then rained down on the terrain, the flames were not powerful enough to set the forest on fire and soon extinguished themselves. While this was going on, Hisaki had also climbed to the top of a tree. The two were lost to sight soon afterwards due to going back into the forest.

"Respect is earned through actions, and from observing what I have of this fight his methods are entirely emotion based and bound to make him a hindrance to his team..." Hatsuma chimed in looking over to the stranger who clearly knew oasis as well as the notwen fellow in the arena. the shinobi with the mask left shortly after oasis had entered, he was already suspicious with the mask thing but the fact he seemed to avoid oasis brought up his suspicion level a bit more. there was another in the room Hatsuma didn't know and likely a friend of the Hisaki person, He seemed a little more together then hisaki at least on the logical level. this person could be trouble in the future if anything went down between their countries. Hatsuma observed the fight and only shook her head at both fighters predictable tactics... though they were quite close to her original plan she never got the chance to implement it in her fight.

Yuki turned around as he heard something that wasn't filled with stupid. The Kidomaru girl from the first match made a wise point about having respect, and then threw her own opinion about emotions in. "I agree with your opinion on respect, it is earned through actions." He kept a hand on the glass, almost as if he lets go, it would fall apart, "However, we're only human, and as such, we are made to have emotions and not having them makes us nothing more than puppets. Granted someone with an abundant amount of emotion can not only be predicted, but manipulated as well, but it is something we must learn by trial and error." He turned back to the window to watch the forest, since that is the only thing he could see right now, and continued, "As a hindrance to his team? I doubt it. I worked with Notwen in the Second Exam and he was quite capable with a team. I do agree that his emotions may get the best of him, but like I said, we're only human."

The red-headed one, Oasis, said something about the Amaterasu flames as she had warned Notwen's comrade. Yuki didn't care about the trust between the Suna-nin, it was something they should take care of themselves, but using the Amaterasu Flames? "What do you mean the amaterasu flames?!" The Yamanaka's voice, usually dripping with sarcastic venom, was now showing concern for his friend. I remember hearing about that from my father, they were flames that were inextinguishable. Using that on Hisaki could be fatal to his health, maybe even limiting him from his life as a shinobi! Yuki's palm that was holding the glass was now balled up to his side as he scanned the arena with his emerald eyes. Not being able to see anything, he turned back to Oasis, "Tell me. What is going on? What is happening to Hisaki at this moment?!" Yuki was nothing but worried now, his face twisted up in an angry snarl, "Please!"

"Those flames are dangerous, you said so yourself. How can I act calm when he is covered in them?" Yuki stated quite cool, surprising since his anger and worry began to escalate. She mentioned a weird energy holding him by his throat. "Barada Yoga, a stunning move created with some type of energy the boy can manipulate, and by stunning, I do not mean spectacular..." The Yamanaka announced. He felt horrible now, not only did he just admit that people who have an abundance of emotions are irrational thinkers, here he was worrying about his best friend. He wanted to jump out the window, heal or save him somehow. He glared at Notwen's friend, possibly his best friend, and began to think of how the blond would react to seeing him in agony.

Yuki shook his head, vengeance is not the answer. Revenge makes a bad shinobi. Powerful, but hated. He bowed lightly to Oasis, "Thank you for telling the truth, I know I shouldn't underestimate my friend, but..." The emerald eyed Yamanaka politely trailed off as he turned back to the window, gritting his teeth.

Oasis let out a light snort how annoying, no matter what you owed to someone you didn't have to call them 'master' did he BELONG to Notwen or something it was so obnoxious. "I don't know if I can trust those words Kaala." She knew his name cause when they were in the book store she was able to read his lips for a moment when Notwen spoke to Kaala. "You are so loyal to him, you would lie for him, wouldn't you?" she questions as she looked back to the glass for a moment before her eyes returned to the boy who seemed to belong to Notwen. She was watching him for a bit and saw with her glowing eyes something strange about his person which revealed itself when he buckled with a strange pain from who knows what and feathers temporarily appeared. "...okay, that explains a few things." she said in a near whisper. She realized she hadn't responded to the other who was speaking to her before. "...They may be dangerous, but I have very powerful healing abilities, this is just a test I'm not going to let someone be ruined for a stupid contest or exam... Not for someones entertainment that isn't good or fair." she states as she looked at Kaala a bit longer, if Notwen was willing to use such a technique she would hate him completely and disconnect from him entirely. That kind of technique was nearly as bad as destroying the body, memories were sacred and important. What Hisaki had done was bad, but it was only two memories even if they were important. "Thats, a technique I didn't know he had..." she states quietly as she tipped her head to the side curiously, an invisible arm that could hold people in place how, well clever really. "I wouldn't lie to such an honest request." she says returning the light bow to Yuki "Maybe or maybe not Kaala... I don't know how strong my healing technique can be... Maybe... I can make it strong enough to even reverse death itself." she states in a very serious tone.

Kaala recoiled at the barrage of words coming from Yuki. It was obvious that he wasn't looking at the bigger picture. The phoenix-boy sighed.
"Please understand, Yuki. Although you are his friend, and your views are noble, you are not the only person that cares about Hisaki. What about his parents? Do you think they can live with themselves having a maimed son who has no recollection of who they are? How selfish can you be to think that you are the only one that matters in his life? Sometimes one has to sacrifice a dream for the best outcome. As for the mental bond my master and i share, it's not like we can communicate with thoughts. We are able to feel each others' emotions. You are comparing Hisaki's lifestyle to the memory of the faces of his little brother and sister. About three years ago, a man named Dokuro broke into Notwen's home while his mother was away on a mission. He tried to fend off the man on his own, but failed miserably, and Dokuro murdered his siblings in cold blood in front of my master. Their memory meant everything to him. Do you know how painful it would be to forget someone you loved so dearly? You are talking about my master being impulsive, but you should look at yourself first before taalking about other people."
