Welcome to Gaia! ::

What seemed like hours later, Ami woke standing in the same spot. The telltale headache told her she'd been put into trance by the cursed performer's voice, but her hunger and exhaustion allowed her to chalk it up to another horrible thing that's happened since her arrival here.


"Well now what am I going to do. I'm lost, alone, out of place, hungry, poor and tired. I feel like picking a fight."

"Stop right here"

"What?"

"Right here!"

"What the..."

Reiko hopped off the back of the bike while it was still somewhat in motion. This, of course, freaked out all traffic behind him as everyone slammed on their breaks and swered as to not hit Reiko or crash into eachother.

Most of it failed.

Without doing anything to the drivers, Reiko had blocked off a certain portion of the town by causing 4 massive accidents, and traffic jams following.

"NOW THAT I HAVE ALL OF YOUS GUYS ATTENTION! I AM REIKO, THE WORLD'S CURRENT FIGHTING CHAMPION! AND I'LL MAKE THE MAN WHO DEFEATS ME RICH, RICH, RICHT!"

There was silence. Well except for the sound of a few car horns and loose car parts falling off the cars they belonged to.

Tellus walked through the town, neither feeling at unease, merely cautious. The young Leviathan lady, holding her nagamaki with a air of confidence. She with her long blue hair, and slimming summer dress and sandels, looked only barely old enough to be out of high school, not the mother to two young toddlers. Her bright green eyes that seemed to twinkle with happiness was a bit of a far stretch from the somewhat moody yet friendly teenager who still always had a nice thing to say about everyone.

"Are you sure about this?"

Tellus simply nodded and continued walking, her eyes looking in every direction as she mumbled to herself. "Alright....Juuni...Papa...Alex...." She had faith in that fact. Papa didn't die. She honestly wondered if Juuni or Alex could either. "Where are you...." The voice on the other end of her cellphone said something but Tellus simply shook her head and sighed, though her knuckled became white as she gripped onto the maki and her slight smile became a thin line of pain.

"Ummm...there's too many people here to do that." Hoping -that- excuse would work on the woman as they continued walking towards the dock, where Tellus hoped her father would be and indeed where he was.

"Papa...."

She spotted him as he stood at the end of the dock, appearing to simply be looking for something to purchase. The gentle breeze from the water, making him seem as much as dream as everything else. Her foot paused, unsure if she could even approach him now. He wasn't looking her way but there was no doubt he would know that she was here now. She simply waited...and hoped.

"Oi- SHABzot!"

The youth was already coming down by the time the Comet was launched; and, possessing no means to manipulate his direction while airborne, it was the best he could do to twist his body to the side and overexaggerate the motion of the kick that he had already started.

The 'comet' flew past, though not entirely so; the aerial rotation had twisted the youth's body enough so that the ball of Pupu Energy was not aimed directly at him, but it still caught the edge of him as it went past. The comet-shaped ball of force struck him in the chest with the feeling of being shoulder-checked, but his own momentum combined with the almost unceasing 'onwards and upwards' attitude of the Pupu's Comet caused the youth to 'roll' off of the edge of the semisolid ball of force and expedite his trip back to the ground.

The heels of his hands slammed down onto the pavement in the street as he came down; positioned at either side of his shoulders as if he had been performing a push-up to absorb the force of the impact a bit. One foot was down, and the other was held hovering beside it for just a moment before it pulled upwards to about where his knee was and kicked off from the ground in a rebound. Tiem was facing away from Reiko now, due to his tumble, and the quick kick up that he had just performed threw him head over heels, or heels over head, using his hands upon the street as a base for a handspring in which his body twisted to the side in the midst of it so that he landed, finally, in a three-point crouched position about ten feet away from the people's champion, facing him with one hand pressed lightly to the ground for balance.

"...okay... plan B?"

Reiko stomped with his right foot and curled his arms downward as if to flex his upperbody's muscles. Which he was doing except... as he flexed his body's muscles, they began to grow larger, and expand greatly, until Reiko's upperbody was five times its size.

"RAAAAH!"

He could only hold it for a short period, after 3 seconds he leaned back slighly and threw his arms out sideways, revealing what made that freakish show possible. His energy rose to the top of his skin and then shot up into the air, taking with it, Reiko's muscle expandature show.

"Do you still want to fight me now?"

Reiko folded his arms and shook his head.

"Nope, never been good with parlor tricks. But I have a doctorate's degree in Pupu-ology."

He stuck out his right arm and gave a thumbs up, a rather large one, not expanding his hand, just creating a large yellow hand in the same likeness and pose as his own.

"Are you done here?"

Reiko looked at Rose who shrugged her shoulders, then looked back at Tiem.

"Nope."

"You're one to talk. You won't even buy your own sandwich!"

Reiko folded his arms. He appeared off-guard, however he was waiting for Tiem's attack. Of course it wasn't solely for the purpose of dominating, more for the reason of showing off.

Hmm. My attacks will dazzle the crowd. Just like me hopping off in the middle of everything. But what attack to use?

Oops, now that did it. Reiko turned his back to the boy and cupped his chin with his right hand. This was quite the dilemma. There are so many techniques he is able to use. Too many for one situation.

"Hmm~."
