Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tao didn't quite feel the attacks, it was more like a loud noise. His body flew across the training field, leaving the other students in his wake as he landed with a thud several feet away, and very clearly unconscious. For a few moments, Tao remained completely motionless. No one could even see whether or not his chest rose and fall with each breath. It was only a few moments later, when he involuntarily coughed up a mouthful of blood that there was any sign of life at all.

((Hmmkay... rest post 1/9 ^_^))

In the dark subconscious of Tao's mind, the impacts of the previous fight replayed themselves again and again. Of course, being Tao's dream, armor was now involved. And against all logic, his attacks were actually occassionally doing damage. And there was also a dragon, and for some reason a bunny. A butterfly flapped its wings in Kohona, resulting in a massive hurricane in the background of this epic battle.

Back in the real world, Tao cooed.

((rest your hp but your done with the lesson))

"...Now." After setting tao to the side to keep him from being trampled, giglamesh would move on those that havent tried as much as tao and asterny. First giglamesh would move on yumi appear directly in front of him with a very evil grin. And it would seem like he didnt move at all and would simply appear doing a upper cut like palm trust at her chin, due to his height if it hit it would push her far up in the air and seem increddibly painfull. But like all his attack they are cushioned with chakra so cause little damage but hurt a great deal more than they actualy do. (also yumi i belive i hit you few pages back as well.)

Next he would set his sight on the boy witht eh dog. with his technique still in effect he would quickly move from left to right at him, at the far end of the move he would pasue every so lightly giveing a visualy delay effect which makes his approach much more menacing. With the after image effect from his jutsu there would bascily look like five giglamesh's moving at him and would the mind would simpley gregsture his moves as single movment like a blur. As he got close enough he would slide his left foot very violently threw the ground soil and kick his foot extremly hard at the boy's dog, but before he would have time to feel bad for the dog a hard right palm would be directed at the boys face. With his high kick at the dog giglamesh would stomp his leg down with great power, cracking the gorund under his wake. And then he would vanish he used the force from the stomp to move even faster at his last target.

He would completly vanish and moving right for the tadia, he would simply try to clothsline him, and due to speed he was moving it would hit extremly hard proably causing him to flip. He was sweating which wassent usual he wassent sued to so many acdemy students, not to mention the longer period of rest between the acdemy classes, he wassnet out of shape simply doing more that he has had to any any previous class.

((So basically this is supposed to be like the first Lavos fight in Chrono Trigger... we're not supposed to win or something?))

Tao watched You Me get lucky, and two other classmates (plus an animal for some reason) being completely the opposite. The inner animal-hater within Tao couldn't help but to smile brighter as the sharp "yelp" rang through the training field. Hell, he almost clapped. Stupid animals.

Still, Tao really wished he could join back in. However, apparently you weren't supposed to get back up after being knocked down. Hardly seemed sporting.

Tao frowned, feeling as though immortality had somehow passed him by. As though, if the gods of kicking a** saw things say... 1/20th more in his favor, he would be sitting on a mound of pure glory right now, rather than watching his less-skilled classmates being beaten to a bloody pulp. Granted, their fates wouldn't have changed, but that didn't matter. HIS fate would have been awesome.

Instead, Tao was sitting in the dirt. It was humiliating.

(7/9)

Tao rolled back and forth on his back for several seconds, before kicking his feet up. A moment later he was erect once more, stretching his arms upward as he felt his wind return. A student (one whose name he never bothered to learn and would probably die on his first mission anyway) landed at his feet. Tao turned his head side to side, and stepped over the seeming carcass beneath him, walking over to return to the classroom.

"Since I'm no longer allowed to play, I'll be catching up on homework," he chirped. "Though its a shame this game had to end so abruptly, my moment of triumph was quite close..."

In a flash, Yokou was holding the Asternyx with her left arm, while easily parrying off Giglamesh's final blow with the sheath of her Kusanagi sword. Incredibly accurate, where she had chosen to position the sword - making even a long katana capable of defending from many angles by a single slight tilt. Long, dark blue hair suspended for a moment in the air before falling over her shoulders once more, trailing in the slight breeze. Though her face remained impassionate, her voice told something else. "That's enough." Was her simple words - yet they did not radiate the usual coldness. The Kusanagi was kept leaning gently against her right arm as she formed a few handseals, palm glowing mystic green. Asternyx's wounds recovered quickly - almost as if she was never hit.

Shikamori...he wasn't paying attention to Tetta. He would've probably sent the other rock flying at the boy for the jibe. Right now, the Nara's attention was concentrated on Yokou. Why...? She never express such concern before for a member of her own clan... Perhaps losing much of her clan had changed her...
