Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hibiki struggled to stay on, but he dug deep within himself. He barely managed to calm his shaking arms. He took a deep breath and pulled himself up as his other hand slid its way up the chain. Once his hand had a firm grip on the chain, he pulled himself up to that hand. He panted and winced as his hands started to feel like someone was pricking them with small needles all over. He took a breath and held himself there as he hoped that it would soon pass. His mind tried to go off onto different thoughts but he focused his mind every time as he hung there in the air.

He took a deep breath as he felt his arms near their limit. He wondered how much longer they could last holding him up. He smiled as he dug deep. His arms trembled slightly. He reached up the chain and held on tightly as he pulled himself straight up. Once his arms were locked in their position he took a deep breath and began to think about how he should make his next move. He had to hurry. He also had to wait until the sign. He kept forgetting that part. He wondered why that was. Hmmm. He lifted himself up with his arms slightly to test how much strength in them. He figured he had about enough for another pull or two.

He raises his hand up the chain like before. He gripped it firmly enough. He started to swing his back as the hit made a slight spasm and his hand slipped. He caught the chain and winced as his back hurt from the movement as well as from the sudden stop. He rolled his eyes. Not really anything you can do about. He looked down at the floor and was about three feet up the chain. He sighed slightly but was happy he didn't at least fall all the way. That would have hurt. "Hibi... Hibi isn't hurt... He just wanted to make it more difficult. That's all!" He nodded to himself as he hung there on the chain.

His arms were becoming weaker every second. He fought back the best he could. Which at this point in time wasn't much at all. He took a deep breath and forced his arm up the chain still. His hand didn't even grasp the chain again because his other hand gave out and he came crashing down onto the floor. He winced and stayed on the ground. He didn't want to move right now. He closed his eyes and just laid there. He wasn't going to try the chain again so soon or he may be in trouble. He took a deep breath as he laid there. Even the position was slightly awkward but he didn't want to move he was too tired at the moment for any of that.

Hibiki took a deep breath as he forced his hand to slide slowly upward along the chain. He waited till his arm was at a comfortable spot before he tried to pull himself up. Once he found the spot a smile bloomed on his face. "You're Hibi's slave now chain! He will beat you up!" As he was yelling at the chain his hands were slowly losing strength and slipping. He blinked as he started to slide. "DAMN YOU CHAIN!!!! That's cheating!!!" He had learn that colorful language in the lab when he was being born..errr... created. He stopped the sliding and winced as his strength seemed to be vanishing.

He glared at the chain accusingly. It WAS the chains fault after all. He made his tail wrap tightly around him so he wouldn't get smashed or anything like that were there to be another sliding event. He waited for a few moments to make sure he wouldn't start sliding back down again. He waited and waited. Nothing. He nodded to himself as he went to go another level higher but he started to slip again. He squirmed as he tried to get a better hold on the chain. He slid and slid as he cursed the chain until his feet touched gently down onto the floor of the cell. His chains rattled as the brushed against each other.

"If you had a throat! Hibi would strangle it!!!!" He kicked the bottom of the hanging chain and nearly fell over. He caught himself on the chain so he wouldn't fall. "Hibi still thinks you're stupided." He raises his nose up at the chain and then looked at it and sighed. He slowly began to shake himself out as he readied for his next attempt. He made a fist a few times before he nodded and grabbed a hold of the chain. He slowly pulled himself up to his usual starting area. He smirked as he was starting to feel lighter. His muscles strained slightly as he began to pull himself into a holding position as his other hand was sent ahead to find a place to grasp. He found a spot and pulled himself up.

He smirked at his slow progression but he began to notice that his arms were actually feeling lighter if only a little. He sent his hand out, as he held himself up, searching for a new spot to grip. Once he found one, he slowly began to pull himself up. His arms my have felt lighter but pulling up his whole body wasn't that easy. He latched onto the spot as his other hand slid up into place beside the highest one. He held himself there as he thought about his next move. He wasn't strong enough yet to place one hand in front of the other like a machine. Although he was a super killing machine and no one could tell him different.

He pulled back his arm and punched it up toward the chain and just before connecting he opened his fist and grabbed it tightly. There was no way he was going to fall now. He was where he was before he started to slide down the chain. He took a deep breath as he shifted his weight as he swung up and pulled himself up as he started to sway on the chain. He held himself there and started to give a light pant. He wasn't used to this kind of stuff. He was good at smashing plates and throwing them in such a way that they broke but... This was way different. He closed his eyes to try and focus on staying attached to the chain.

He looked up the length of the chain. He eyes his next hand placement spot. He felt pretty high up though he still have a little more than half way to go. He nodded to himself saying in his head. "Go go Hibi! Go go! Go go Hibi, go go!' He moved his head back and forth to the pace in his head. He reached up and stopped every time he was thinking a word. He looked like a chameleon as he reached up the chain and grabbed the next spot. He pulled himself up to the same rhythm too. It looked... very odd to say the least but he himself was an odd child. He bobbed his head from side to side as he held tightly onto where he was.

Falling was by far his least favorite part of this training. Recently, thankfully, he's been catching himself and only losing some ground that could be made up later anyways. He took a deep breath and reached upward toward the spot in the chain he had decided on. His choice was a bad one for as he grabbed it his hand slipped and he started to slide down the chain. He winced as the links ran against his gloves. He forced himself to hold on tighter. Stopping just a two feet from where he was. Thankfully he didn't have slow reaction time. He held onto the chain tightly to avoid anymore slipping.

Hibiki looked at the distance he would not have to cover once again. He sighed as he hung there waiting. His strength was hard to control right now. It'd give him bursts of strength for a while then suddenly nothing. He didn't know if he had to continue to do it for a long time so it won't vanish like before or what. He took a deep sigh and continued to raise his hand up as his forehead beaded with sweat. He looked at the chain intensely as he glared at it. His hand grabbed a hold of the chain and slowly he began to raise himself higher up. He smiled as he locked his arms in the new position.

He felt like a real super ultra killing machine with all this training. He couldn't wait till he felt that he was strong enough. He was about half way over he thought. If he touched the top he would just have to slide himself down and work his way up to doing it again. He smiled as he took a deep breath and felt the tug of his muscles as he hung there in the air. He reached up with one of his hands and grabbed a hold of the chain about a foot or so above him. He smiled and begin to pull himself up. He was quite proud. He was having some troubles before but now it was a pie walk. He locked his arms in place once more as he reached the mark. He nodded to himself, obviously pleased.

He laughed at the chain as he hung there. "Hibi told you he was going to beat you! Kukuku.~" He taunted the chain by continuing his laugh as he slowly began to push his way up. A few more and he would be at the ceiling. He smiled happily as his hand darted upward along the chain and grasped the chain with all his might. He slowly began to pull himself upwards only stopping now and then for a quick intake of air. He forced himself the rest of the way up and help his position against the chain so he wouldn't slip back down and have to restart all over. He looked up and smiled as he saw the ceiling only two feet away and out of his reach.

Hibiki liked when things went his way. It was so much more fun like that. He smiled as he was liking this training. He was going to break down that door down soon. He could just feel it. He took a deep breath and reached up to the ceiling. He latched onto the chain with a smile. He began to pull himself up. He quickly became lightly headed though as he started to slide down the chain. His hand gripped weakly, causing him to gradually fall instead of heading straight to the floor. He started to slide a lot more than just the two feet he has usually been falling. His feet touched the ground and he slumped over feeling the moment of being lightheaded slowly pass.

He was very grateful that he didn't have to deal with that problem often or let alone ever really since that was his first time. He blinked his eyes and shook it off not knowing what that was. He grabbed a hold of the chain as he looked back up to the ceiling. He was going to touch it. He was! He placed one hand level with his shoulders on the chain for an anchor point. His other hand slid up the chain and grabbed a foot or so above his head. He smirked as he felt his strength slowly returning from the lack of holding on. He took a deep breath and quickly pulled himself up to where his highest hand held on. Once there he let out the breath and hung there.

He smiled and shook his head. This was going to take longer than he thought it would. He nodded and began an inner monologue. 'Hibi climbed the metal rope with chains all over him. He reached up for his amazing ultra cool... uhhm... what was that word.' He raised his hand up the chain but it stopped mid way and stayed like that as he tried to find the right word for his monologue. 'Whatever. He did that one thing and that thingy thing and got upper on the metal rope thingy.' He nodded to himself as his hand continued up the metal rope thingy. He held onto the chain and pulled himself up another level with a smile on his face.

He flipped his tail and patted himself on the head with the tail. 'Hibi did good job. He deserveded pats. NOW BACK TO BEATING THIS METAL ROPE THING-A-MA-JIG!' He nodded started to kick the metal chain as he raised his hand up to the next level. 'Hibi may not be higherer ups than before but he will still beat you!' His shut quickly once the chain hit it but because of his kicking it it had begun to move. His hand closed around nothing as he went to shift his weight. By the time he had noticed that he wasn't gripping anything he had already begun to fall. He yet out a yelp early in anticipation of the impact, his eyes squeezing shut. "Ga-!" His feet touched the ground lightly as he cringed.

He opened an eye to see what was wrong. He blinked and looked around. He was on the floor standing next to the chain. He blinked at the chain and nodded. "You are a worthy opponent. I will make you my minion! You will be called. 'Hard metal rope thingy thing version 2.3.' Yes yes... I like that." He nodded as he begun to talk to himself and then pointed to the chain. "Hard metal rope thingy thing version 2.3! Aka Hmrttv 2.3... You will help Hibi climb you and reach that upsided down floor thingy that Minion mark one was doing sit ups on." He wanted to get to the ceiling so he could do that too. He put his hand on the chain and tried to pull himself up. His arms were still apparently weak because as he began to pull himself up his arms just gave and he landed lightly on the floor once again.

Hibiki held on with both hands as he took a deep breath and smiled. He had to remember to breathe. Otherwise he may just fall off. He made his feet grasp against the chain to help slightly with being able to push himself up. His legs seemed secure, more secure than his hands usually were at least. He didn't know why he kept slipping. He just left it at the chain was a stronger opponent than he had thought. He was okay with that because he was going to feel stronger once he beat it. He moved his hand up the chain and smiled as his legs held most the weight. He smiled as his legs slipped and he slid down a foot.

He clung to the chain tightly and he breathed a sigh of relief. He was so near and he was going to beat this no matter what. His hand ached slightly as he continued to hold himself up. He didn't want to rush it and cause him to either slip or be in pain. He used his sore hand to raise up the length of the chain within his reach and grabbed a hold of it. He slowly push and pulled himself up. He shifted his weight from his feet to his hands to his right hand and then his left. He was making this pull his own as he finally reached his destination this time. He hung there as he panted slightly. He hated this feeling of being worked hard. He was supposed to be a killing machine after all.

He dug it out as he began to focus as he hung there. He was about half way there. He didn't want to look down for fear of possibly falling. He held tightly onto the chain and he bit his cheek and forced himself to slowly slide his hand up the chain and latch on. He felt a little stronger but the small flame of doubt was in there. He was no way near the point of giving up. It was against his nature and truth be told he was probably to stupid to understand a difficult situation where he should probably just give up, but that was what made him the lovable killing machine he was or should I say will be. He smiled as held himself at the new height happily.

He felt a small thrill inside him as he continued. He feel good. When he felt good. Good things happened in which he became even more happy. He took a deep breath and focused as his hand stretched up the length of the chain and latched onto the a fixed distance ahead of himself. He picked a spot a little within his reach without having to stretch as far as possible. A good comfortable position in which he was able to hold tightly. His tail began to swish from side to side as he pulled himself up. He locked his arms in place as he looked up above him and saw the ceiling yet another foot or so closer.

The thrill grew in the pit of his stomach. A tingling feeling that wouldn't go away. He didn't know what it was. It felt funny to him but he still felt good. He kept the smile on his face as his tail wrapped around his waist once more. He took a deep breath as he reached up, more than before, the length of the chain. His grip was slightly slacked but he figured he'd be able to get up there regardless. He pulled himself up with a smile and went from another one anxiously. His hand slipped under his pressure as he slide down a few feet. He caught himself and groaned at the sudden jolt that wreaked his body when he stopped.

He took a deep breath as dangled there. His body ached all over as even the slightest breath brought him near a wince. He closed his eyes as he focused on something else. 'This isn't anything. Hibi can do this easily.' He winced slightly as he began to pull himself up the metal chain and latched his hand to what looked to be a secure hold. He tested it slightly as he pulled on the chain with a few jerks that remained him of his recent fall. He ignored the trivial pain as he continued to pull himself up the chain where his hand had been resting before. He took a deep breath as he held himself there. He looked up and sighed.

He thought to himself 'This is not going to be a pie walk but Hibi will give his all and beat it!' He nodded proudly to himself as he continued to hold on with all his might. He nodded once more as he sent one of his hands up slowly. He searched for a new gripping where he could hold on tightly to. He felt around until he found a good grip with his hands. He smiled as he slowly pulled himself up along the chain. He was slowly getting closer, foot by foot. He reached his hand and placed his other beside it as he hung himself there, waiting for his next burst of energy.

He closed his eyes to try and save what little energy he could for the next pull up the chain. He was feelingly slightly sleepy but that was probably just his muscles straining after all the falls and mess ups and holding himself there. He had to hold himself there otherwise he would fall all the way back down, well most likely anyways. He really didn't want to test his luck more than he already was so he continued to hold on. He slowly felt his strength growing more and more. He reached up with one of his hands as he grasped the chain tightly. He felt it was safe enough as he put all his weight into it and began to pull himself up.

He smiled triumphantly as he reached his arm. He brought the other one up and above as he felt along the chain for a new gripping. He searched for a little while uncomfortably until he finally found a decent spot to pull himself up next. He waited though for his strength to build up once more. He hated it but he wasn't going to rush and fall on his tail again. He could see the ceiling easily and nearly touch it. He took a deep breath as he surged up the chain until he was where his hand was previously. He could probably reach it if he reached up but his arms were to shaky at the moment to be able to do something like that without falling down.

Hibiki rested there as he looked at the ceiling. It felt so near he wanted to reach out and touch it. So he did. He reached his hand up above his head. He was only less than half a foot away. He put his feet together as he slowly began to raise himself higher. He was getting closer and closer. Only an inch apart and his foot slipped and gave way. He would have fallen but his arm still attached into place anchored him in. He took a deep breath in before releasing a massive sigh of relief. He struggled to hold on as he dangled there. He wasn't going to let go no matter what. His muscles straining and ached under his weight.

He let out a gasp of pain as he tried to pull himself back up. "Gahk. Hibi won't take this laying down! You hear chain? Hibi will beat you!" He slowly swung himself along the chain as he quickly grabbed by his other hand and pulled up. He reached up weakly toward the ceiling. He latched the chain before his feet once more as a precaution. He reached up and was almost able to reach it up stopped and decided to wait until his strength had recharged slightly. He took a deep breath as he smiled. He was so close. There was no way he could be discouraged now. He looked at where the chain and ceiling met with a smirk on his face.

Kyojin was balancing on his chair still, also balancing a few throwing knives on the ends of his hands, and his nose. "Oh?" he flipped the knives up as he purposefully tipped the chair over the rest of the way, stepping off it and unto the floor looking unruffled, as one hand caught all three knives out of the air. "Ah, good. Well done Hibi-sama!" he gave a dramatic thumbs up, his Cheshire smile unbroken, as he stated certainly. "Hmrttv 2.3 didn't stand a chance! Chi chi chi chi." he then turned his head slightly. "Now that your a total beast, allow this humble minion to get us out of here." he walked to the bars and began to rattle the with the handle on one of his Kozuka

"Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhooooooooooooo! Excuse me! Waiter! My windows a bit to high, it has bars on it, and I don't much care for the whole "prison" decor. Might I request a different venue?"

One of the guards walked over from their patrol back and forth down the hall, the other looking at him as though he was crazy.

"Look you raging psychopath...we've already told you, you aren't getting stake, you aren't getting an easy back chair, I don't now what an easy bake oven is, and we don't even HAVE a cotton candy machine!! If you make one more jackass reque-" but the man had made the mistake of getting to close to prison bars. In a move that cheated the eyes, Kyojin seized the man and slammed his face up against the thick bars, a knife raising to his throat.

"Hi!" Kyojin said as though this was a normal way to introduce yourself to someone. "I'm Kyojin-senpai. Do you want to know what I like about bars?"

The man merely trembled with the knife at his throat. "You can reach through them!" he said as though this was the punchline to a joke he was telling. "Say, what's your name anyway?"

The man blinked still terrified, his partner standing back unsure of what to do. "I-Ichijo."

"Ichi-kun!" Kyojin said, still happily. "What a fun name! Two points." he seemed a little too relaxed to be threatening someone with a knife. "Say! Ichi-kun, you do much fishing?"

"W-what...?"

"Fishing, ichi-kun, keep up with me here if you don't want to lose those 2 points."

"N-No!" the man spat out. "I-I don't like fishing!" he said frantically.

"Hey!" Kyojin said approvingly. "You know most people when I ask them a question with a knife to their throat always answer yes!" he stated as though he often held knives to people's throats. The man's eyes widened in terror. "No, no," Kyojin assured, patting him on the other cheek with his free hand encouragingly. "That's a good thing ichi-kun! I like you! In fact, you can be my delivery boy!"

"You-your....what...?" Ichijo inquired looking terrified even still.

"You know!" Kyojin said cheerfully. "Like a messenger boy! You'll deliver my message to your employers!" he stated still as though he was having the time of his life.

"U-uh....what's...the message...?"

"....Chi chi chi."

The man went pale.

"Oh...you'll see." he released him, backing away from the bar's and leaving the guards confused...until her held up the key to cell. The guard immediately checked his key ring...before going even paler. "Don't worry ichi-kun..." he tossed the key to Hibi. "We're nice guys....we'll count to one hundred!"

The two guards took off running.

"Chi chi chi," he held up and hand over his mouth chuckled gleefully. "I lied. We're not counting to one hundred." he gestured towards the door. "After you Hibi-sama!"

The Last laugh gave a content toss of his hair as he stepped out of the cell, looking up at the ceiling as he answer Hibi's questions. "An easy bake oven is for easy baking....and an oven! And Cotton candy is like cotton...only candy!" he stated as though he was imparting the divine secret of the universe, before giving a rather dramatic turn about, holding up up a finger. "The answer to that is very simple!" he pointed to the far more frail iron bars on each of the cages. "We could either go get the key...or break all the bar's off their hinges!" from merely the way he emphasized the two options, it was rather apparent which one he would have found more fun, the other prisoner's of Oto getting up in their cells looking shocked and hopeful, those that were healthy getting up looking ready to fight. "If you would, Hibi-sama?"

The cage rattled as the bars smashed into one another with enough force that it caused the bars to fall out of place and create an opening. He smiled happily as he moved to the next cage. "Hibi will save you people next. Just wait a moment while Hibi warms up." He rubbed one should with his hand as he rotated it. He had seen a bunch of big bro's use it while they played fists with one another. He took a deep breath as he pulled back his arm. He threw his arm over his shoulder. It missed the hinges and slide along side the bars until his face smashed into the bars once more. He winced as he could feel more pain on his face and nose.

Hibiki slowly pushed himself back onto his knees as he pointed to the cage door then the other. "You two are in cahoon's with one anothers aren't cha's?! Don't bother lying because Hibi will just destroy you anyways for keeping big bro's and sis's in here!" He walked across the hallway as he faced away from the cell. He turned around a took a deep breath. "Now die!!!" He yelled as he charged with his fist raised. When he was a few feet from the cell he jumped up and gave a double heel kick to the frame as the hinges cracked and slowly slide off and fell onto the floor with an anti-climatic 'Plop.' "Hibi told you all he could save you big bro's and sis's! No need to think Hibi. Just remember it was Hibi and not the old hag that saved you! H- I- B.-... I." He paused for a moment to see if he needed another 'EEE' sound after the 'BEE' sound. He think he got it so he didn't care.

Hibiki took a heroic pose with his hands on his hips as he stood there while people acknowledged him. He liked the job well done feeling he had gotten from helping them. They were his big bro's and sis's after all. He patted the man on his arm as he spoke. "There there big bro. Hibi is a destroying mashine! That metal cagey thingy can't keep Hibi in or stop him. Kyo-sen helped too Hibi supposes..." He nodded over to Kyojin as in saying. "Good job. You got a new name for helping." He watched Kyojin blow a hole through the wall. He tried to impersonate what Kyojin had done but ended up spitting all over the wall in front of him. He heard Kyojin call for him and looked up. "What? OH! Hibi coming too!!!" He ran after him and matched his pace with Kyojin and walked beside him. He puffed up his chest as his head swung from side to side with every step. "Clomp clomp clomp clomp kipkip clomp clomp clomp." He was making sound affects for his walking and nearly stumbled onto the floor. Hints the kipkip of little feet catching up. He would have hated to stumble in front of his first minion that was being promoteded.
