"Vahn? A name change? Who does he think he is? Me?"
Reiko looked at Silver and grinned. Now he had an idea. For the moment, Kasuga, Vahn, whoever, wasn't important. But now Reiko was gonna start doing stuff, because.
He cupped his chin in his left hand and took a deep breath.
"Well I'm afraid you'll have to be my hostage. Just for a little while. You don't have a problem with that do you?"
He proclaimed as he rose his right hand and made a tight fist at face level and leaned in towards Silver in a threatening manner.

"Yeah, he goes by Vahn now... I figured you woulda heard already, but just didn't care, as--"
Silver's eyes widened at the sight of the fist, and he hopped back, raising his arms into a defensive position. Whether Reiko was actually attacking him or not, the previous assault had made him a bit jumpy.
"Tch. Hostage? For what? You think it will draw Vahn out? Look, pal, I don't even know where he is, but I can almost garuntee you he's not in this city. He's might not even be on this continent... but you're welcome to try me, anyway!"
Silver grinned and held his right fist up triumphantly, declaring:
"I'll show you what Vahn's best student can do! If you don't fear the flame of this devil, then LETS GO!"

"I don't care about someone who I've beaten twice. My intentions aren't what you think."
Reiko held out his left hand and motioned for Silver to come at him. What was Reiko planning? Even he himself didn't know. So what the heck was he fighting Silver for? Well once he was done he'd figure something out.
"Make sure you give it your all so you will have no regrets."
Reiko's right foot went back slightly before he put his left hand down and then started walking towards Silver with his fists clinched. But still keeping his left side leading.

Silver lowered his head and raised his fists, the grin still on his face. That was the kind of talk he liked to hear. Maybe Reiko wasn't so bad after all.
"What's the point..."
He pulled his right fist back, putting his left side forward, but he didn't advance any.
"If you don't give it all you've got?!"
With that, his right fist shot forward, and along with it, his entire body flew at incredible speed. As his arm extended, it erupted in white flame from the fist, a shockwave of energy shooting out around it in all directions, creating a ring around his entire body to pass through.
"SILVER BULLET!"

Reiko edged to the left and parted his left arm from his body to catch Silver's arm under it. Sharply jerking slightly to the right after catching him.
"Silver bullet? I think I heard that on a commercial."
He rose his right hand up to face level, grinned, and then pushed harshly at Silver's face to send his head back and him to the ground. Of course, releasing his arm from captivity directly after the push.
"Too straightforward. I saw it coming."

The wall far behind Reiko caved as if something large had collided with it, but to the casual observer, nothing was visible. Silver winced as his arm was stretched in a way it was not meant to.
Countered?! Wha--
"UAH!!"
Silver's whole body was sent backwards as his head snapped back, but he managed to recover his footing before toppling over backwards, stumbling back several paces.
Not even phased. This guy's for real!
He brought both of his fists up again into a defensive position, leading with his right, and slowly advanced on Reiko once more. Once within range, he would "test the waters" by throwing a couple of light jabs with his right hand, aiming for Reiko's face.

As soon as Silver came in range and began his first jab, Reiko's left forearm came up semi-defensively along with his left knee and then he thrusted out the foot out at Silver's midsection to violently push him back once again.
"Are you still testing me? How much more convincing do you need?"
He kept his hands down at his sides and waited. Silver wasn't going all out yet. Maybe he was the type to explode when he was backed into a corner. Something Reiko could relate to.
"Should I come at you instead? Perhaps I would be open to attack."

"Agh!"
Silver staggred back again, taking the kick hard in the right side of his ribcage. He stood there for a moment, breathing heavily, as a single bead of sweat ran down the side of his face.
He clintched his fists and stepped forward again.
"We're just getting started!"
He advanced quicker this time, leading with his right again. Stepping close to Reiko, he'd try to push in close enough, starting with a jab from the right while lowering his left hand, then quickly shift to the left and throw a body blow to Reiko's lower left side.

Vahn Kyonuske Ezekiel raised an eyebrow, visibly surprised at the words that came out of her mouth. Arguably everyone else was more than a little alarmed, but Victor remained unphased. "And where exactly is it that you need to go?" His head never even bothered turning in her direction, eyes remaining closed, and his whole body relaxed. The others stood in silence, the tension within the hidden chamber mounting. Who..is this woman? Ezekiel continued to stare towards her, with his remaining eye. And why...does she seem so familiar? *Sierra laughs softly, angry amusement playing across her delicate features.*
"I know you don't need to ask me that. However... If you insist on playing games, I will go to Vahn. I will go to my fiance's side and lend him my strength."
*Her eyes flick to Ezekial, her molten gaze resting on him. Her eyes burn, drowning pools of golden flame and a glimmer of something dark behind them. Her empathy channels were picking up on his shock and curiosity, which of course caught her attention. She says nothing though... and simply observes him, her gaze full of unvoiced challenge.*

Reiko's left forearm came up in and slightly out to the left to knock Silver's Right arm away. Afterwards he turned his upperbody and swung his left elbow, since it was already up, to the right to elbow Silver across the face.
"Are you trying to be a good student? Because 'second best' will never be good enough"
He was now prepared to continue in an offensive manner.b

Silver took the elbow in the right cheekbone, under his eye, his head whipping to the left. It stung like hell, but he didn't stop. He quickly brought his right arm back and down, and shot it up at Reiko's exposed left side with his arm still up.
Then, whether it connected or not, he would bring his left arm up, and as he whipped his head back to the right, his whole body would move to the right with it as he brought the left arm across with hook to the head.

Silver Alexander He quickly brought his right arm back and down, and shot it up at Reiko's exposed left side with his arm still up. Reiko's body bent slightly forward and left after he took the hit. "Ow." Apparently Silver wanted to trade blows with The Sakagami-man. Which was fine, because he was tired of seeing Silver hit nothing. Or something like that. Anyway, slightly after getting hit, Reiko tightened his right fist. Silver Then, whether it connected or not, he would bring his left arm up... This was the opening needed. He thrusted a ready right fist at Silver's left midsection. ">=|"

"HRGH..."
The blow collided solidly with the left side of Silver's body. But still, he didn't back down. Sliding his right foot back to keep himself up against the blow on his right leg, he followed through with the left hook, aiming to catch Reiko on the right side of his face.

Of course, there was an observer.
A black crow, perched upon a nearby roof. It saw the fight clearly from its prime seat, but it was of no interest to it. In fact, nothing so far had been of any interest. It was time to move on...
After a bit. If the crow stayed a bit longer, perhaps something interesting would come up. If it returned with nothing, master would be displeased- or at least disappointed. So the crow waited, and watched with it's unbiased gaze for anything worthy of note.

Reiko's head cut left as his body leaned left. In fact his hat almost flew off. But it didn't and that was good.
"..."
It was time to break this up. But Reiko didn't want to be the first to withdraw from the exchange, it would look bad, even if he did win the fight. So he sucked it up, and gave one more effort in pushing Silver back. His body was already bent to the left, so he curled his left arm... and shot it up at Silver's chin to send his head and body back.
