Welcome to Gaia! ::

Junichiro easily evaded the kick from Nicholas while he was on the floor by simply stepping back, what came next did however feel somewhat unexpected of Nicholas. Seeing Nicholas make a dash, not to attack junichiro, but to simply stand behind him, and then simply stay there, made Junichiro rather confused but at the same time rather annoyed at the fact he could not get Nicholas from mimicing him. ''Damn it Nicholas, get the hell to the front and face me, doing this will not buy you much time!''.

Junichiro and Nicholas went into a sort of Chibi comedy strip as Junichiro basically side stepped in a circle with Nicholas folowing him, slowly Junichiro sped up to a stupid speed with Nicholas still folowing to the point Junichiro dropped to his knee's for a briefe moment and began hitting the ground with false tears running, and then shouted''Why are you tormenting me damn it!? WHY!?''. Then resuming the seriouse scenario, Junichiro stands up and sense's a rush of reiatsu from behind, quickly realising a way to counter nicholases rather annoying technique Junichiro form's a split second plan.

Junichiro makes a mad dahs forward as soon as the feeling of reiatsu got too near to him and then dives onto the floor and commences a frenzied rolling motion on his side. ''HA! You can't stay behind me if I am rolling can you!'' Junichiro begins laughing very loudly and confidently as while rolling he loses focus for a moment and rolls into a large rock. ''DAMN ROCK!'' Junichiro leaps up and begins stomping down on the rock in a comedic manner of rage before remembering Nicholas would most likely try getting back into a miomic position and Junichio immedietly turned around to face him.

''Now let's try some MARTIAL ARTS!, not this funny business.'' Junichiro now take's the offense and dashes forward toward's Nicholas at a formidable speed, upon reaching roughly 2 meters from him Junichiro leaps into the air and quickly grips his right leg, raising it to his shoulder at the meter point he releases his leg aiming to perform a mid-air axe kick down onto Nicholases head with enough force to shatter a boulder, just like the one which interupted Junichiro's roll previously.

((There you go Nicholas, Junichiro put on a little comedy act for you to lift you're spirit a little.....before trying to kill you xd ))

Junichiro knew an attack was imminent as suddenly he could not sense any reaitsu flow which would have given hint to a kido or a charged fist etc, Junichiro being yet again annoyed at Nicholases irritating mimic from behind just waited for the assault. When his hit finally connected to Junichiro's back, he simply chuckled as all it managed to to was shunt him a few meters forward off balance, and also managed to rotate him back around to facing Nicholas.

''I am not very muscular in comparrison to most shinigami, but still, I have a strong skeletal structure, so it makes up for the lack of muscle, and that move, without reiatsu charge, was no more than a forcefull shove to me.'' Junichiro begins cracking his spine as the attack did manage to slightly stiffen his back a little. ''Now you wanted me to show you what I got, please, I will show you the basics, but to show you my true prowes in the martial art's would be to insulting....only to another true martial artist would I go that far.'' Junichiro takes a slow sprinting start toward's Nicholas before he drop's and perform's a slide right under Nicholas, and then reappear's behind him.

After shooting up to his feet from sliding under Nicholas, Junichiro pulls his right hand back slightly and charges it slightly with reiatsu as he thrusts his palm toward's the base of his skull where the spine and skull join. Junichiro was very fond of odd maneuver's in avoiding and getting around people, this sliding move was Junichiro's most commonly used and as stated, it was one of his most basic forms of evasion and way's of getting to behind someone for sudden attack's.

''Nicholas, honestly, I'm hoping you learn something from all of this which is why I used such an easyily detectable attack, if you could not dodge it, then you would most likely be dead right now, so congrat's.'' Junichiro was then slightly amused at Nicholases rolling around, ''You enjoy dirt a little too much I think Nicholas, you spend way to much time on the ground.'' Junichiro began to chuckle a little to himself.

In the midst of his little moment of humour Junichiro saw Nicholas lashing out with the high kick, hearing him add the word 'chan' on the end of his name seemed to aggrivate junichiro, ''Don't use Chan dam it! And what are you talking about stealing that move, a high kick is a basic move, not a signiture move!'' Junichiro tucked his arms together to one side and took the kick directly, the plated gloves gave more than decent protection as Junichiro came out from the attack fine, but the kick did however have enough force to push Junichiro back a little.

''I am going to have to make you pay for the chan comment, and not to mention all the other disturbing thing's you've said to me today, brace yourself....'' Junichiro's expression became much more seriouse, he slowly moved his right hand to his eye patch and began uncliping it, then upon removing it Junichiro's other eye was revealed. ''I do not expect you to know why I wear an eyepatch, but, let me say this at least, you're chances of hitting me have now decreased.....ALOT!.'' Junichiro then performs a jump into the air and tries to do a mid-air spinning kick to Nicholases head.

((Math kill everything, I HATE MATH~! burning_eyes ))

''I am not a pirate!.....And I told you stop using the chan suffix!'' Junichiro saw his body movement's align as he got back up from dodging the kick. With his two eye's now active, he could analyse every tiny movement of his muscle contraction's. ''I see through you....'' As Junichiro landed Nicholas lashed out with a barrage of furiouse punches, all of which Junichiro blocked by lifing his hand's up making his punches collide with the plated glove's, though Junichiro was being technically pushed back, he was taking no damage.

Eventually upon the point where Nicholas stopped punching Junichiro knew how much damage had been done to the metal, the damage was moderate, several small dent's and scratches, nothing a trip to the smith won't fix. ''Not bad Nicholas, you could be a rather good boxer'' He then saw the leg flinch as the muscle in his thigh's contracted, quickly side stepping the kick. ''I told you, hitting me will not be as easy now.'' Junichiro took a lazy defensive stance roughly 2 meters away. ''I feel generouse, so come at me and feel free to try that again.'' As he said that he glanced down to see a very faint scuff mark of dirt on his chest where he had tried kicking, ''My, My, seemed you got rather close there, but that was porbably luck.'' Junichiro smirked as he chuckled lightly under his breath fixing both eye's on Nicholas and making complete eye contact.

((the elbow to my spine is a auto-hit so i will ignore it and pretend you just jumped behind me....))

Junichiro saw that clearly his opponent had plenty of fighting spirit even when fighting aomeone with superior hand to hand skills in the martial arts. Upon landing behind Junichiro..........again Junichiro on instinct remembered that Nicholas has the habbit of mimicing therefor Junichiro did not move, but felt a slight vibration in the air as though somthing was raised above him, so on impulse Junichiro raised his arms quickly above him where the kick came down and caused a slight crack in the floor from the impact.

''Not bad, maybe you should take Kick boxing, you have good power in you're arms and legs, and a possible talent for a type of boxing given you're attack method's, when somewhat normal, would be good for a type of boxing.'' Junichiro smiled and laughed slightl;y to himself for a moment before realising Nicholas had withdrawn his leg and launched a punch to the side where junichiro dropped his arm and took the impact to the plated glove again causing further slight dents and bits of damage. Junichiro takes a step back where he turns around to see a kick heading right for him, Junichiro took the split second to react and leaned right back avoiding the kick barely by a hair line. After dodging Junichiro rolled to the side and darted to his feet where he quickly formulated a quick and simple assault.

After a moment of thinking Junichiro had it, He took a large step forward and perfromed a low sweep kick in an attempt to trip Nicholas, and then quickly aimed his right hand close to Nicholases solar plexus and said while smirking, ''Hado #1 Thrust....'' and sent a large thrusting force of contained reiatsu in his right hand to hit Nicholas whethere the sweep hit him or not in a off guard moment he had hopped to open from it.

Matsu let out a sigh and chuckled. "If you want to know, then I can give you an answer. However, there is no way that I will spar an injured opponent." He jumped down from the tree and walked over to him. "If you want to find someone to help you in martial arts, then I suggest you go to the 7th squad, since they specialize in that." He then turned to Junichiro. "Also, good fight! It was very entertaining!" he told them.

(He probably knew that. He has a way of putting random things in his posts even if he already knows it.)

Matsu simply rolled his eyes and let out a sigh. "Well, I was not intent on hiding. Besides...It may have been rude not to tell you that I was here, even though it seems that you already knew I was here." he said, looking Nicholas. "However rude it may have been, do you not think it would be even more rude to interrupt such an important spar between friends?" He took a sip of his sake and looked at them again. "Putting that aside...I believe that the reason why you got a higher rank than me is not completely because she had faith in you. I, myself, believe that you are very good and deserved it."
