Welcome to Gaia! ::

So, Kawaii's plans didn't go the way he wanted. He was now being gripped by Genshin's massive hand and being thrust forward, feeling a punch struck into his stomach. But his hands were still gripping the wrist of Genshin's grasping hand as his covered face squenched to the pain of the punch. He now felt himself descending, meaning he was about to be struck into the ground. This will have him now coming toward the ground back-first, if Genshin was executing an effective slam. But this all did not interrupt Ultima Weapon's effect on the ground. As stated before, the cracks would be traveling from the blade with some heading for Genshin. In the middle of the slam, a piece of the earth that Genshin was standing upon will suddenly rise up, his opponent's feet right at the edge of it, having the descent of Kawaii probably stop in midair after an outstretched arm will be no success to sending its prey to ground.

One after another of earth will be cut under them, the cracks stretching and branching further out across the arena, sending them floating into the air, rising. As for Kawaii, he growls as a sudden flash emits from Genshin's grasping hand, something expanding underneath, which would naturally cause his opponent's fingers to move further and further back to distribute against the growing force. In truth, it was only a field of energy, displacing Kawaii's face, but moreso, his entire body, allowing him to get free from the hold and falling toward the ground. This was one time he was happy to have his magic shield ability. He lands onto sand, but he was now placed onto a piece of rising earth that was just ten feet below Genshin's piece of rock.

The sound of showering sand could be heard as the grains fell over the irregular pieces of earth that were moving into the air, falling into a twenty foot crater. This crater represented how much of the earth was now floating in the air. The size of the rocks ranged from five feet length and width to eight feet. And the third dimension of each was probably from five feet to ten. Although rising into the air now, all were in at least ten feet of one another, having them all together take up fourty feet of z-dimensional space, but broken up, not as a smooth plane of ground like before. His Ultima Weapon remained on the piece of earth it was struck into, glowing. Kawaii's left hand would cause his second keyblade to appear in his left hand, having it spin before pointing it directly into the air, a flash emitting from its tip. The bottom of the bottom-most piece of earth within this cluster will stop at the altitude of two hundred feet. But at the meantime, they were still quite close to the ground.

((For technical purposes, the rocks will ascend twenty feet per post. The bottom-most piece is just arriving off the ground, so it's at 20 feet from the crater. The top most is 50 feet off the ground. During your post, the bottom of the bottom-most piece will now be 40 feet in the air.

There are five levels of this cluster of rock. The bottom most is on the first level, which is currently at 20 feet, based on the bottom part of it. The second layer contains Kawaii, which is 30 feet. The third layer, which may contain Genshin if he does not move, is 40 feet. The fourth layer is 50 feet, and the fifth is 60 feet.

And for visual purposes, here's a map:

Legend
- First level
] - Second Level
- Third level
- Fourth level
- Fifth level

Each sector is ten feet wide, long, and tall, by all three dimensions. There is a three foot margin between rocks that are on the same level and next to one another, but all rocks are at least ten feet apart on the z axis. The G on the map is the position of Genshin and the K on the map is the position of Kawaii. The U on the map is the position of his Ultima Weapon.))

Kawaii may have agreed at first, but rules were meant to be broken. Especially when he wished to add another exciting element to their supposed melee battle. The shadows would only go into a standstill struggle with the magical conjuration from the blade, thus, the cracks will cease in place, waiting for the opportunity for these "shadows" to leave.

As for the removal from the grip, it requires no plane transfer, but simply a matter of physical displacement. Genshin's hand was on Kawaii's face. At this time, Kawaii would activate his magical shield, which started from his body and expanded outward into its normal size. That meant that the face that Genshin was touching would exert the magical force suddenly, exploding outward and having Genshin's hand moving back as the shield increased, since Kawaii would be near ground now. Basically, his shield just placed space between his face and the grasp to allow him to fall away, like an air bubble or something of the like.

He would roll backwards seven feet only to return to his feet, his right hand on his stomach, as his expression seemed to be in a wince like state. He would look back to his keyblade and then forward, seeing that his magic was temporarily halted. It did not matter. His keyblade would find a way to work around that. In the meantime, Kawaii had to find a way to increase the odds against Genshin. The man was taller and stronger, at least for now. He couldn't grow a few more inches this quick, but he could increase his physical capabilities. This brings a smile to his face as he straightens his stance, a flash erupting from his body. When it ceases, red lightning-like energy would be crackling along his body as the color of his attire changed to mostly red, with a few traces of white and black lining. The designs on his clothing had changed, as well.

This was called Kawaii's Valor form, the very enhancement he needed to match fists with his opponent. Only a smile would mark his face as he places his fists forward in a ready position, his left leg bent and forward while the foot of it seemed to be slowly tapping the ground, as if Kawaii was impatient somehow in not having anything to do. But Genshin will soon find out that this physical change was more than meet the eye.

The cancellation would only be occurring against Kawaii if the shadows were at all in contact with him. But even then, they would have had to first been able to affect Kawaii's body or a least his special attire. This cancellation would have worked. But instead, it would fail, still allowing Kawaii to remove himself from the grasp and enter into Valor form. When the shadows would try to go against him upon reaching the ground, his suit would exert a magical defense, placing them into a constant fight for control over one another, entering into yet another stall, only this one, Kawaii's being had the same vantage, since it was always active, meaning it was existing even before Kawaii entered into this match. This was the power of his Twilight Suit, and thus why the cancellation against Kawaii would be futile.

The boy, anxious to start this brawl, would say: "You want a fight, I'm giving you one." He would suddenly lunge forward, feet quickly stepping across the ground as he moves slightly to the right in the first two steps upon going toward his opponent. He would already be within three feet of Genshin by then, his speed suddenly being faster than Genshin had witnessed before, and a left fist was moving back before being sent forward toward Genshin's stomach. But, Kawaii will expectedly be waiting for Genshin's reaction to this, meaning his punch would not be full force, but just enough to give him a chance to move his fist in time, in case a counter or block comes into view.

Kawaii's left foot crosses in front of his right as his left fist stops only inches from the stomach of Genshin, hopping off his right foot as he shifts suddenly to his left, now sending a right fist for Genshin's stomach at the closer distance, while moving his head out of the direction of the palm that faces him. His left foot will land just when his fist hits, assuming it does. If it do, a great surge of power will be felt going through Genshin's abdominal area from the crackling energy emitting around his body. If Genshin touched his right forearm, hand, or wrist, such as trying to knock it away or grabbing it, he will receive a sudden shock that will create a reflective force, making whichever limb that touches this limb move back. It would stop Kawaii's punch, but he will do significant damage to Genshin, although not very much to be considered any worry.

When the swords shift, the keyblade will suddenly flash, disappearing from its position. Genshin's shadows could not negate something such as thing, for they will have to penetrate the keyblade itself. The weapon, moving as an invisible energy trail as normally, reappears twenty feet in the air, hovering there for the time being.

Direct hit! Although the lightning-like effect of his arm was long gone. He would have to wait another moment before he could use it again. As Genshin leaps, Kawaii continues his momentum, crouching to the point where the hand would not be able to grab him while his left hand goes into a fist. And as he rose, he attempts to give Genshin a good strike in the chin, having bypassed the guy's offense.

Kawaii's adrenaline was now pumping. He could feel the rush of battle and the advantage going his way. After the uppercut, in the middle of the small leap of his attack, he seems to spin immediately right, creating a horizontal momentum that a normal person would not be able to achieve in mid air. When he is coming to face Genshin in his quick spin, Kawaii's right foot would not be going for the man's chest in an attempt to knock him back once again, attempting a follow up of his uppercut. This was his little version of a roundhouse kick.

Just when things were getting good, he is suddenly pushed back in mid air, now tumbling himself backwards as the man releases some energy like attack at him. But Kawaii just as easily recovers, his right hand resting upon the ground and his left to the side. His teeth clench before his mouth open, seeming a red aura now surrounding his opponent.

"Well, now, I'm finally outside in full now. No more of the good to interupt in what I want to do. Now then, Kawaii, let's really start this fight."

"Wha...?"

Genshi suddenly runs very fast at Kawaii until he sees nothing. Well, almost nothing, but he did see Genshin run behind him, having Kawaii qiuckly look back. But he was gone just as fast, now moving elsewhere, starting to juggle the teen's concentration when suddenly a strike hits the back of his head, sending Kawaii rolling forward unbalanced across the sandy ground, but he thrusts his right hand into the ground and suddenly leaps back to his feet, facing the direction of his opponent. He was fast. Faster than before. Not a very good sign.
