Welcome to Gaia! ::

The other healer glanced up at Anzu, who looked back. The other healer was about to give the sign for being unable to fight, but then Shinko shifted and got to his feet. His head was lowered a bit more than usual, casting a soft shadow over his eyes. When he looked up, there was a tiny golden spark deep in his eyes. Without warning, and somehow faster than before, he pushed the other healer to the side and aimed a hard punch at Kazuma's jaw.

Anzu blinked in shock, then gritted her teeth as Shinko went after Kazuma again with a series of punches. However, she knew that Kazu wouldn't give in so easily and stayed back from the fight. When he was close to the Rabbit Boxing Champion, and when the shift of his hair allowed it, the unusual golden spark could easily be seen. Even if he were to get hit, he would continue fighting like nothing happened, at least until his body was at its limits.

Shinko kept fighting back. Only when his limits were at their ends did his body finally give out. The golden spark left his eyes, then he collapsed a moment later, unconscious. The other healer immediately started treatment while Anzu checked on Kazuma, healing him as well. "What the h**l was that about?..." she whispered, knowing something was very 'off' about this fight.

Kiriel scratched the back of her head, leaning back in her chair at the computer, staring at the screen. "What the heck was that all about?... Something's not right here..."

Sarael smirked and merely slipped away from the sports area ever so casually, brushing her glorious green locks over her shoulder. Licking her fangs, the vampire just continued on her way.

Anzu finished healing Kazuma's injuries, sighing. "That's not the first time I've seen that spark though," she said quietly, looking over at Shinko. As a healer, it was her duty to assist the other elf with treatment. It also gave her a chance to examine Shinko's body. "No physical markings different that could distinguish the person who did this. It's like... mental warfare..."

Kiriel thought for a bit, crossing her arms while keeping her eyes on the screen. "Most people on OZ seem to like physical abilities like Kazuma's, or magic abilities like Anzu's... Not too many people have chosen a mental ability like this. Is it like mind-control or something crazy?"

Anzu scratched the back of her head but nodded. "Yeah, we're good. That guy, Shinko, seems to have been controlled by someone else. That same golden spark is showing up again."

"It's a bit of a coincidence that you two seem to be coming across a lot of these weirdo people... Could someone be after you?" Kiriel suggested.

"I don't know... Anyone acting suspicious in reality? Maybe they're after us because they know you two," the elf pointed out.

"Both maybe? Who knows. Maybe it's just someone you know who doesn't like you guys?" Anzu explained, crossing her arms.

Kiriel could only shrug. "I dunno. Not too many people hate me. They just think I'm weird for being nice and dress in black and such."
