Welcome to Gaia! ::

Torrest watched as Ginsa tried to introduce himself and Torrest to the group of men that confronted them. But then Torrest remembered them all and tried to stop Ginsa from advancing any farther. However, Torrest was to late as Ginsa was punched hard in the cheek and sent flying. Torrest watched as Ginsa slammed through the nearby tree before looking back to them all, thinking that they were playing another game. “Are we playing tag? Okay! Since I’m the guest, your all it,” said Torrest as he turned to run but he collided with a fighter who stood behind him. Torrest fell to the floor and gripped his head, rubbing up and down feeling the pain from landing upon his butt. Looking up, he saw a figure blackened by the sun behind him but then felt the man grip the front of his collar and pull him upwards until they were face to face. “How dare you show your face here again you insane punk,” said the fighter as he lifted a fist, drawing it back to punch Torrest hard in the face. Torrest launched a knee to strike him in the stomach but was too slow as the fist connected with his face and sent him flying backwards, bouncing off the ground a few times before slamming into the wall hard, leaving an indention where he collided. After falling to the ground, Torrest opened his eyes and then shook his head a bit before getting to his feet. “Okay... I guess it’s my turn to be ‘it,’” said Torrest as he put a smile on his bleeding face.

Suddenly, Torrest shot forwards with quite a bit of speed as he threw a punch forwards towards one of the men that was closest to him, flame appearing around his fist as he managed to use the Burning Fist technique that was learned the last time he was there. The man was struck hard in the torso and started flying backwards in a flurry of fire as he continued through the air towards a nearby set of trees which he collided into. The fire erupted into a bonfire but that didn’t last long as villagers quickly poured out from their houses with buckets of water before throwing it upon the fire, effectively putting it out. However, they found there was a fighter within the ashes, having died from inhaling the flames which, in turn, burned the throat and lungs, causing the airways to be blocked by massive swelling and the lungs to be filled with excrements from the body’s natural reaction to the fire to try to drown the fire out but in turn accidentally drowning the fighter as he lay unconscious within the flames. Torrest smiled as he cocked his head to the side, unaware of what he had done as the others started to get incredibly angry with Torrest. Suddenly, a few of them pulled out weapons like sai’s, spears, swords, staffs, and other weapons of sorts. Torrest merely smiled at them as he adjusted himself so he could get ready to run, thinking that they were all it again. Just as suddenly as every one of the fighters started to run towards Torrest, the idiot started running away from them thinking that this was still some type of fun game that they were playing.

As one of the men got close to Torrest, he thrust his sai at him but missed as Torrest stepped to the left with a back hand backwards into the man’s face, sending him sprawling upon the floor, gripping at his face. Torrest continued to run, only to stop as he found there was a shadow around him. Torrest quickly used a Cannon Shot upwards into the air, slamming straight into the man’s stomach and sent him flying back upwards into the air. Torrest laughed at the men chasing him, taunting them as he sang out, “You can’t catch me! You can’t catch me.” But as he continued to run, a few of them managed to get close to him with smiles on their faces as they swung their weapons at Torrest. But the boy quickly turned around and then gave out a roar so powerful, it literally knocked back the fighters that were chasing after him, sending their weapons flying through the air. Torrest smiled as he kicked off the ground backwards before turning but was unaware on where he was going and slammed face first into the wall before sliding down a bit. Suddenly, there was a knee in his back as one of the fighters used the Tiger Crush technique to send him flying through it and into a tree behind the wall. Torrest slowly got up as a shadow covered his eyes, his arms swaying as blood dripped down from his head. Suddenly, Torrest lifted his head so the light shown the cold look in his eyes as he gritted his teeth to an extremity. Torrest suddenly started yelling so loud, it was also then enhanced by the Lion’s Roar technique so that the trees around him had their bark blown right off before Torrest punched straight into the side of a nearby tree, causing it to collapse under its own weight and Torrest caught it as it fell. “You are all cheating,” cried out Torrest as he then threw the tree, having it crash through the wall that surrounded the village and towards the group that was following him.

Many jumped to avoid the tree but others used a fighting technique to break the tree into pieces before advancing forwards. But as they moved through the splinters of the broken tree, they found Torrest was in their faces. Suddenly, a hand shot out and grabbed one of them by the face before being pulled forwards towards the knee that created an image of a tiger upon impact, sending the poor man flying into the air. The others near Torrest weren’t too lucky as Torrest turned towards another man and grabbed him by the neck before moving him over to Torrest’s left and was kicked hard in the chest, sending him flying into the man behind him and both slamming into the tree that had been destroyed after Torrest threw it. The rest of the fighters were rather surprised to see how insane this child can be but they then found themselves alone as Torrest disappeared with a ring of dust forming from where he once stood. Suddenly, Torrest appeared under one of them before kicking off, upwards into the air and sending a well aimed uppercut straight into his jaw, causing him to bite off a part of his tongue and sending him high into the air. Torrest landed upon the ground and looked around as the rest of the fighters were landing all around him trying their best to get into their fighting positions but Torrest suddenly ran for the closest one before throwing a fist straight at him, an image of a tiger forming upon impact and sending him flying. But it wasn’t really the punch since after the punch connected, Torrest followed up with a second attack. A knee thrust that coincidentally turned out to be a Tiger Crush. Torrest slid on the ground a bit before stopping all the way and slowly took in a deep breath. He then turned towards the rest of them but his face wasn’t mad… But rather he was happy or something of the sort. “Okay! The penalty has been given so let the game continue,” cried out Torrest with a large smile.

Ginsa looked towards the direction of the voice and said, "It is good to see you too." Ginsa had lifted up a hand towards a fighter before a blood dragon shot forth from it, slamming into the body of that particular fighter before sending him flying into two more of them. "Where have you been anyways, stealing more hearts for your collection?," asked Ginsa as he started walking towards her, tired bodies of fighters around. Ginsa was also fatigued but his face wouldn't show it. As he stopped around fifteen feet from Furanken, a taijutsu martial artist flew from the trees nearby and bounced over the grounds right between them before colliding to a stop in a tree. Suddenly, Torrest slid to a stop to Furanken's right with a smile on his face with his opening statement, "You came to play tag too?"

Ginsa remained as emotionless as he was before as Furanken attempted to discipline him on how to take care of Torrest. But a man quickly attempted to cut Ginsa's head off but the blade stopped suddenly upon Ginsa's neck. A blood dragon shot out from his self made wound upon the finger of his hand and slammed straight into his body, making him fly off into the distance before the blood dragon broke up back into average blood. "Torrest thought it was tag and continued to play as such. Apparently these men knew Torrest before and started attacking right away. Also, congratulations on getting those hearts." Ginsa was completely emotionless as he looked towards Torrest who was grinning form ear to ear. "Furanken won't play? Okay then," said Torrest as he turned around and saw three men headed their way. Suddenly, Torrest shot forwards, slamming his knee into the middle one's face before grabbing the one on the right and throwing him into the one on the left. Torrest landed on the ground with a smile on his face as the three men bounced along the ground away from them.

Torrest smiled and then turned around saying, "Okay! Time to play Leap Frog." Torrest then ran off at another group that appeared. Ginsa looked at Furanken after hearing that she wanted a rematch. Ginsa hadn't put his sword away yet so he took a few steps back before lifting the blade up to shoulder height with the tip aimed at her while Ginsa's blood transformed the blade into a more stronger version of itself. "I accept your challenge," said Ginsa, still emotionless as ever.

But before she would even be able to strike the first time, Ginsa activated the replacement technique, switching him with a Raibushin no Jutsu, exploding upon impact that would deliver a powerful shock to Furanken as Ginsa wouldn't need to use hand seals, thus not having to give away his intentions. Ginsa flew out of a nearby tree, pointing his bleeding hand towards Furanken that shot outwards a bloody dragon that headed towards her. If she were to be bitten by it, it would cause an automatic win even though Ginsa didn't activate his Haynes Blood nor Infectionl. If he did, that would merely result in the loss of a valued team member.

(Edited)

Ginsa felt something grab his neck and apparently knew something was wrong. It felt like there was a hand on his neck but it really didn't do much to him because of his Nemean Lion Defense hardening his skin. Ginsa looked over towards Torrest to see that he was still alive and then turned his attention back towards Furanken before having several shadow clones appear around him before dropping to the ground towards Furanken, blades ready to stab at her.

Unfortunately for Furanken, a few of the clones managed to dodge the attack by either jumping or dropping closer to the ground and letting the hand pass over them as they noticed a breeze appearing as the arm cut through their air which caused the leaves on the ground to move. The Ginsa clones continued their attack and since they were originally only 3 yards away, they had finally reached her and threw punches at her adding the effect of Exploding Fist. As for the real Ginsa, he blew the fire into a turmoil half way but using the Great Break Though technique to create a powerful gust of wind from his body.
