Raj nodded and walked with Rei. He was very confident that they'd be able to handle Firebenders better together than Raj would have alone. Even though air fed flames, they could also redirect the path of the flames. He'd been looking into the bending arts for a while, really just studying the stances and the effects of each element against the other.

Tsuzuki shook her head, tired of waiting for an answer. "When we're allowed to enter the corronation, I'll be there. Thanks for the invite," she said and walked away.
After an hour of walking through the forest, she found a small port. The boats weren't that amazing but they were good enough to get her to the Fire Nation in no time. She bought a ticket on the next boat out of the Earth Kingdom and, once she was on it, knew that the next time she saw the Earth Kingdom, they'd be in war.

((I reclaim this thread for the Band of Three! xD)) It had been several hours since the trio had met, around twelve or so. There was a fourth, but Xeon, an Airbender, had ran away, afraid to fight the Waterbender Tekagami. There was also Xaio the Earthbender, and Ryuk the Firebender. Ryuk had beaten Xeon and tied with Xaio. He had also met and tamed a Mongoose Dragon named Kouryuu. The fights had gone early into the morning, and Ryuk fallen asleep after his fight against Xaio, exhausted from the training and fighting he had done. Even though he had been tired and sore, he was sure he had gotten stronger, getting to his ultimate goal, becoming the greatest Firebender ever known, for his mother's sake. It was now early in the evening, the sun was close almost right above them all. Ryuk stirred slightly before opening his eyes, blinking several times. He slowly sat up and yawned, stretching his arms and cracking his back several times. He got up, stretching a bit more, then turned around, patting Kouryuu on the side. Ryuk walked towards the put out fire pit, which had burned a few more hours after he had slept. He looked up at the sky and smiled.
"A new day and I feel great." He said.
Ryuk shook his head, getting small insects to fall out, and looked around, trying to spot the others.

Tekagami had been training with his waterbending skills while Ryuk had been sleeping. But once he awoke and began moving Tekagami walked over and smiled. His breathing was a bit off but that was because of the training. He looked at Ryuk with a determined look in his face. He then said " Alright it's my turn today. Let's train." He jumped back about five feet making the distance between them ten feet. He got into his waterbending stance and waited for Ryuk to begin.

Ryuk hadn't been able to find either of the two, but knew they were around, somewhere. After a few minutes of wandering around, he had given up, knowing they would show up eventually. By now, Kouryuu was up and about, eating the last on the centipede. Ryuk's stomach growled and he looked around. He saw a fruit tree nearby and ran up it, grabbing an apple, and falling back down to earth. He held a small orange fruit in his hand. It was a Oranpple, a fruit that had many vitamins and a sweet taste.
"It's a fine breakfast." He said.
Ryuk quickly ate the fruit, the food in his stomach making him feel better. He yawned yet again, covering his mouth with his hand. Suddenly, he heard noise and spun around, seeing Tekagami appear from the direction of flowing water, no doubt practicing his Bending. He offered to train with Ryuk, and he smiled, taking a few steps forward.
"Where are my manners? I haven't beaten you yet." Ryuk said, laughing.
Tekagami got into his fighting stance, and he did the same, he kept the normal footing, but his hands were different. His left hand was sideways and forward, palm facing down and slightly cupped. His right was pulled back, palm up and slightly cupped. He stood still, this style of fighting required Tekagami to attack first.(Battle with a Waterbender) Training Post One

Tekagami smirked " I'll take the bait." He would take both of his wrist's and pull them together. Then his body began to spin as his wrist's began to fold into eachother and spin aswell. Then water began to come up from his belt and form into a ball raised a few centemeter's. Then he would complete his 360 degree turn and then thrust his palms forward. The water heading straight at Ryuk. But then once it reached about three feet away from Ryuk. Tekagami would seperate his wrist's and split the one ball of water into two ball's of water. Now headed for both of Ryuk's shoulders. Instead of just his chest.

Tekagami agreed to attack first and quickly started. He pulled his wrists together and started spinning. Water came from his belt and made a ball. Takagami stopped spinning and shot the ball forward. Ryuk quickly reacted, the adrenaline already pumping. He had grabbed the goggles around his neck and pulled them up over his eyes. He saw the ball coming at him and darted forward.
"So it begins..." He said, smirking.
Two balls of heat were creating in his palms, watching the ball. He was about to thrust his hands forward when the ball split in two, both flying towards his shoulders. Out of reflex, he lifted his hands up to catch the balls. The heat met the water and they exploded in steam. Ryuk jumped back, shaking his hands, then wiped the steam from his goggles. He smirked and looked up at Tekagami.
"Nice try. But now it's my turn." He said.
Ryuk bolted forward, left hand forward in an open palm, and the right pulled back, cupped and facing upwards. He planned on getting close to Tekagami, about a foot away and thrust the right hand forward, sending a blast of flames at him.(Battle with a Waterbender) Training Post Two

Tekagami would wait for the last moment when Ryuk's hand was thrusting forward. Tekagami would take his right hand and sweep it by his belt gather water around it. Then his left foot would sweep itself back and his right hand would thrust forward with the water to battle Ryuk's right hand. If all went accordingly thier attacks would cancel out.

((Sorry it took so long, I've been really busy.)) Ryuk had successfully gotten close enough to Tekagami to use his technique. He thrusted his hand forward, but so did him, his hand engulfed with water. The fire and water collided, canceling each other out in a flash of heat and steam. A small smirk formed on his mouth and he jumped back, performing several back flips before landing on his feet, about ten feet away.
"So this might be a bit tougher than my other fights." He said.
Ryuk stretched his arms, neck, legs, and back, bending in odd and painful looking positions, cracking bones and loosening muscles. After finishing stretching, he looked up at Tekagami, a bit of steam fogging his goggles, but not a lot. He got into his fighting stance. Legs bent and leaned forward, left hand forward and cupped, palm facing the sky, and the right pulled back, cupped and facing down. He quickly switched into a fist, then into two fingered fists. He had the pointer and middle finger sticking out, both aimed at Tekagami. Ryuk then shot forward, running low towards the ground. He quickly reached Tekagami, thrusting his left hand forward, aimed for the center of his chest. If it hit, he would then jab the right hand up at his chin, grabbing his throat and flipping him. He knew the weakness of Waterbenders. They could not Bend at point-blank range. They needed room to move their arms.(Battle with a Waterbender) Training Post Three

(( It's ok. I don't mind waiting. :3 ))
Tekagami kept calm as he looked at the firebender stretch. Then once he got into his position and began moving, Tekagami smirked aswell. Then once Ryuk got close and stretched out his hand, Seth bent backwards then bent his legs and flipped back. Hopefully his legs making contact with his outstretched hand. Using his hands to support himself he would bend them and flip back more onto his feet. But while his body was horizontal to the ground he would turn both of his arms around in a circle. Water following thier movement's. Then as soon as Tekagami's feet would touch the ground his arms would stop thier rotation pointing out towards Ryuk and sending two long streams towards him. The streams about 3 feet long each. They also looked sharp and they were headed for both of his shoulders once again.

((Same deal...)) Ryuk's punch was easily avoided. Takagami then flipped around, kicking his hand into the air. This threw Ryuk off balance. He then preformed a Bending move, sending two streams of water at him. He was still at an awkward angle, and let gravity do it's job. He stopped trying to get on both his feet and fell back, catching self an inch off the ground with his arms. The two attacks would hopefully pass and he could get up. Even if they did hit, he would ignore the pain. He got up, the cocky smirk on his face, and grabbed the goggles on his eyes, adjusting them slightly. Ryuk then shot forward, taking in deep breaths as he ran, slowing down his heart and using up less energy. He decided to go with the same tactic he had used before, close range combat. As he ran, he quickly hopped back and forth, incase Tekagami dcided to attack then. If he reached him, he would throw a punch, which was short, then use that hand to flip around and bring his right leg into Tekagami's shoulder, all the while thinking of more strategies against his opponent.
I hope this works... He thought to himself in mid=attack.(Battle with a Waterbender) Training Post Four

When Ryuk fell tekagami smirked and muttered " Perfect" He would the take both of his hands and slam them together infront of his body. The two water streams would come together and become one thick water pillar. Then now only using one hand. his right one he would take his index and middle inger and thrust them into the ground. That's when the water pillar would quickly change directions and shoot straight down at Ryuk. Who would now be just reaching the ground at this point. the tip of the water pller changed into a point. It looked like it could cut right through a tree trunk. but since it was water it would just cause alot of pain. It was aimed at Ryuks stomach. (( Traning with a Fire Bender. Post 5 ))

Ryuk's attack had failed. He wasn't able to get close enough to Tekagami to finish up his attack. Tekagami created two streams of water, which formed together through Waterbending. It then shot forward at Ryuk.
Crap. He thought to himself.
He thought of several scenarios in his mind, trying to decide which would work out the best. He could use Firebending to cancel it out, but it would take up a lot of energy, and he wanted to conserve it. He could dodge it, but Tekahami would just move it so it would hit it. He kept thinking, while falling through the air. He let out a sigh, deciding on a plan.
"This is a tough situation." He said.
Ryuk landed on his right hand and flipped onto his feet, crouched with hands and feet on the ground. He saw the point and gulped, knowing it would hurt if that hit. He waited till the last moment, then launched himself into the air, towards the pillar of water and Tekagami, but above them. His plan was to get behind Tekagami and get some punches in, though he kept his body tense, waiting for the pillar to come back. If it did, he would use waves of fire to take it apart, then go after Tekagami.(Battle with a Waterbender) Training Post Five

(( So in my understanding your in the air... O.o ))
Tekagami sighed as he tried something he was interested in trying ever since he was little. taking both of his hands he out stretched them and seperated all of his fingers. The pillar then at that point seperated into ten small little water balls. Concentrating hard on the water balls he begin to bend them and twist them until they were each small water picks. (( As in a thick base but a sharp point. )) Then using a power he wasn't used to he would create ice out of the ten ice picks. This took alot of energy but he wanted to show Ryuk what he was made of in this spar. Then he would begin to manuvere his hands thorught the air in fluent movements. As if his arms, hands, and figers themselves were dancing. The ice picks would go with the dance and eventually end up going towards Ryuk. The ice picks positioned themselves with two underneath Ryuk. Two infront of Ryuk, Two behind Ryuk, Two above Ryuk, and two lay stationary in the air by Tekagamis head. Then tightening his hands into fist's. he watched as all of the ice picks thrusted forward towards the airborn Ryuk. Thier sharp points threatening to cut deep into Ryuk. Obviously not killing him but just injuring. Plus since they were positioned all around Ryuk in a 360 degree area. It would be hard to avoid all of them. But now Tekagami just watched to see what the firebender would do. Sweat begining to form on his face and his breathing was harder then when he started. This spar was harder then any battle he had been in. (( Training with a FireBender. Post 6 ))

This was the only time Ryuk had ever wished he was an Airbender. This was a really bad situation.
I should have just ran forward. He thought to himself.
Tekagami had waited until Ryuk had jumped into the air, then he stretched his hands out, extending his fingers, and split the pillar of water into ten small balls. They then started to transform into needles. He then turned them to ice. They started floating around Tekagami, then shot at Ryuk. Two from under him, two infront, two behind, two above, and two by Tekagami. Ryuk looked around, trying to think of a plan, but none were coming to mind.
"Damn." He said to himself.
He took in a deep breath, flipping through the air. He looked at all the needles and guess where they would hit. He kept his breathing, spinning while he was in the air. He was curled into a ball, which made it hurt to breath. He took in a final breath, then shot his arms and legs out, changing how he spun. He shots fire out of every limb, quickly making a ball of fire around him. He knew some of the needles would get through, but not all.(Battle with a Waterbender) Training Post Six
