"Thanks, Xyn. I guess I'm having a pretty good day today..." Serena replied to his complement while waiting for him to kick the ball. It was rather annoying, hearing Shisei drone on and on about stuff just to make other people mad. Well, it was making her mad, too. Aggravated, and she knew Xyn was going to be that way, too, probably a lot worse, seeing that all he was talking about was him and Maya. The Raiken sighed and glared at the gold eyes. "I'll stop when you stop, you hypocrit!" She retorted, looking at the snake boy in a taunting manner as she turned sideways to catch the ball coming towards her. "Really, Xyn...if you won't hit him, I'll do it. I've been wanting to do it since he accused me of spying during class." She gave a small smile and proceeded to switch places with him again.

“Yes Maya-sempai. Let us do this again. Another time.” Shisei said turning away from the girl and moving away. He was ready to wait for the next round while the rest of the stragglers worked to catch up. He was going to sit back and gage the rest of the competition again until his thoughts were interrupted. Gold eyes turned and looked upon the weird eye youth. Xyn was slightly trembling. Especially his fist, which now had small tears of blood around it. Shisei’s eyes grew slightly wider. Maybe Maya wasn’t the only one with a temper. Still she and Ero-sensei were the only ones who had the power to lay anyone around to waist with their rage. He listened to boy as he began to ask his own questions. The serpent youth wanted to snicker at this, but contained the urge under his expression of deadpan. After Xyn said his words the snake child would speak his.
“Threatened by you? As you stated about me before, you are of no importance to me. Maya-sempai is though. I cannot stop her from who she builds relationships with. It was just a simple question, but I guess you cannot answer it.” The amber orbs then turned towards Serena. “Serena why don’t you mind your own business and let Xyn speak for himself. Just like with the bug boy and spying on the class, you like intervening in things that don’t concern you? Should I start intervening in your business then? If you really want my attention so much then I’ll give it to you another time. the serpent youth stated mockingly. “But can you be a little easier on Xyn? You must have hurt him in the last play. His hand is bleeding. We wouldn’t anything to happen to a fellow student now.” the snake child further stated deciding to keep his eyes on the game between the Raiken and the crow. His vision specifically on the boy. Just what would he do next? “Your armor is already beginning to shatter Xyn.”

Serena held the ball silently as she watched the arguement between Xyn and Shisei spark. She noticed the blood dripping from Xyn's hand, and immediately took a deep breath in and panicked in her mind. What should she do? He made his hand bleed! She really wanted to go hit Shisei now. After a couple of minutes, though, she relaxed and shook her head, kicking the ball without much though. "Shisei probably has nothing in relation to her. He's just doing it do get on your nerves. If anything at all, the sneaky little critter's just trying to use her to his own advantage." The Raiken glanced at Shisei again. She was trying to make Xyn feel better. As if the snake eyes cared about what she said, even if it wasn't true. At least, it sounded like Shisei..after spending a whole night trying to figure out his name, she learned a lot about the boy..he had absolutely zero positive emotions about him.

The girl just wouldn’t let be would she? Well now this could actually be fun. Inwardly the snake was smiling, because now he just wanted to see if he could push his intellectual rival and the bleeding boy. She was smart so it would prove a feat, but he wanted to see how much he could push both of them. Sun colored pupils maintained their stare at Xyn, but now his mind was also focused on Serena. “Correct Serena. I don’t have any relations with Maya-sempai as yet. I do want to get closer though. Is that what you wanted to hear Xyn? Is that also what you wanted to hear Serena? Advantage is such a harsh word though? You sure you aren’t just jealous girl? I’m starting to think so. You spy on my classes, choose to stay out all night with me and then proceed to interfere with my affairs. Does it bother you that Maya-sempai is more important to me than you?”. It would be interesting to see their reaction. The snake’s face was as expressionless as a blank wall. Within though he was awaiting their reply to further break Xyn.

((Since I won the lie roll, the mod was added to my kick making it 13>12, I score again! ))
Xyn tapped his right foot on the ground. It was hard today... He half turned to Shisei while he spoke, only to turn his body back to the same position as before. He took one knee to the ground, kneeling close enough to try and break the partially frozen soil. He rubbed the dirt in his palm, making several fists before brushing his hands together. The wound had already closed, although Xyn had never bothered to look at his palm to see the extent of the damage. He let out a rather long grunt, but only the initial part of it was audible.
"Your words betray your actions." Xyn knew there was something behind Shisei's overbearing curiosity, and it seemed Shisei was unwilling to give a proper answer. Very well, there was no reason for Xyn to answer such a pointless question if Shisei would not provide worthwhile information.
"You words having any truth, your pursuit is pointless. Why gather information... you do not need...?" Xyn was far more calm now. All Shisei had were words. That alone was nothing the Douken boy should concern himself with. If that was Shisei's only weapon, his ammunition was fleeting and his power had no substance. He closed his eyes while taking in a deep breath once again. There was something to what Serena said, but there was still the problem of what Shisei hoped to accomplish...
"If you want information, you should offer something of equal value. All your questions... they only show how inferior you are." Everything was about balance. Shisei's actions were so far unbalanced that it was breeding anger from everyone around. Xyn could easily rise above something so childish. With that in mind, Xyn looked at the ball as Serena was about to kick it. He wasn't trying very hard to win, and yet he was thinking too hard about how to win. There was no balance. If he could just...
Without another thought, Xyn heaved his entire body into the path of the ball, not even realizing he had blocked it before he hit the ground, quickly retrieving it before it rolled away.

If Xyn remembered correctly, catching that meant he and Serena had the same number of goals, as well as the same number of balls remaining after this kick... there might actually be a chance he could walk away from this game with a tie. He had to think about this carefully, just not overthink. If he could score this goal, then there would be no pressure to score or block again. Serena only had one ball left, so...
Xyn picked up the ball, staring at it, then at Serena over the top of it. He eventually let his muscles weaken so the ball was instead in front of his chest.
The thought had crossed his mind to convince Serena to end the game. However, that was only one of his thoughts. He hesitated only a second before letting the ball drop from his hands and kicking it when it barely hit the ground.

Maya had been listening almost impassively, focused on Baki. But Shisei's words...Xyn was hurt..? Maya whirled on the snake, snarling.
"Stop assuming I'm gonna go along with anything you've got planned," she snapped, baring her teeth at him. But then...
She turned back towards Serena and Xyn, snarling at them as well. "This is a crappy festival, if all you guys are gonna do is argue with each other and hurt each other." Maya turned her eyes at Shisei, glared, then glared at Serena, then let her gaze soften infinitesimally when it landed on Xyn. With a low curse and a snarl, she tore a band of fabric from her jacket, walking over to him and grabbing his hand, wiping the small, half-moon wounds (self inflicted...go figure...), and tore another band of cloth, wrapping it around his hand tightly, but so quickly and gently that it rivaled even Tenko's care. She muttered, "Be careful," and walked to the edge of the training grounds, sitting on the ground and simply looking out over the area. A low growl in her throat showed that she was very obviously unhappy.

Serena squeezed both of her hands into a fist and tried not to yell at the Shisei. "You know what? Fine. I'm not gonna say anything. See if I care." She smiled at him over her shoulder and turned back around to face Xyn. The Raiken wasn't going to anyone more upset than they were now..especially Maya, who seemed to be getting a bit annoyed by their arguments. She winced a tiny bit as the Maya looked at both Xyn and her. Slowly, she bent down and scooped Xyn's ball up, which left her clutching the ball in her hand and switching places with Xyn again. She'd rather not talk anymore until the mood was a bit better, no matter how annoyed she was at Shisei. Someway or another, she was going to play his mind again.

Last one one..and then Xyn goes..and then the game would be over. Serena quietly watched as Maya bandaged Xyn's bleeding hand with care. Would he be okay? She gave him a small smile as she walked by him to switch again and set the ball down, giving him a bit of time to get ready and adjust to the cloth that was tied around his hand. "Here goes, last ball" She whispered to herself and gave the ball a swerving kick. This one seemed pretty strong. If Xyn caught this one, he possibly had the chance of winning, but if he didn't, they could possibly end in a tie, or she would win. Either way, it was fun, until the interference a second ago..

I only hope...
Xyn was a little dazed when Maya came to him. Once again she had done something like this... he always felt in debt to her kindness, but he didn't have the slightest clue how to return it.
My only hope is...
He was unable to say anything to her, even as she walked away. His face filled with a solemn stare that could only engrave this scene on his memory.
Maya...
Xyn clenched his fist again, but only to rub his fingers along the cloth she had given him. There was a pain in his heart as he tried to look away from the girl, holding his fist against his chest. A sudden sense of urgency filled him as he turned to Serena. Last ball? Xyn widened his stance, waiting for the ball to come before skidding his foot toward what he believed to be its path, but something was different. The boy put all his weight into sidestepping the ball, but he somehow managed to go in the opposite direction, the ball flying passed him without any resistance for the first time. A little shocked, Xyn looked toward Serena with a slight amazement, although he quickly shook the expression from his face.
"... my turn."

Xyn gripped the ball in just his left hand, his arm barely extended away from his body. The game was finally almost over, although it was still early in the day. He wondered what else this new kage had in store. Whether or not he scored no longer really mattered, with this last kick he could go talk to Maya.
My only hope... is that you know how much I...
"Thank you... for playing against me." Xyn lifted his head slightly, then let the ball drop as his left food moved out. Even though it went under the ball, it was his right foot that made contact. The awkward movement caused the ball to move in an equally awkward direction, just barely reaching the goal. Xyn clenched his toes to keep from running after it.
Lost... Xyn nearly grunted, but he simply cracked a half smile, turning his face away from Serena in a way no one would actually see. Without even waiting for Serena to catch the ball, the boy started to walk off toward Maya, only hesitating when he looked around for Munin... well, that could wait. He continued his stride as before.

Karite walked into the training grounds a little late. He was a little tired from the swim and dive. Smiling as he waved to everyone he sense a very high level of intensity. So thick you could cook meat in it. Brushing the back of his head with his hand the boy looked at all the people with confusion before sitting down next to Maya. "Maya, did I miss something? Every seems a little less happier then a few moments ago." Karite wasn't sure what happened but what ever it was he was glad he missed it.
Kore followed closely behind Karite bounding up and down and spinning. More than anything the cub was just happy to be back in one piece again. Having wounds in vital places like he did was not good for a cubs playful personality. Seeing Maya Kore ran a little faster than normal to build up enough speed to bound into Maya's lap. Looking up at Maya the young cub seemed to be very happy to see her as well. Kore was very playful today and it seemed to be showing.

Rokugi dragged his big bag barely above the ground for he was a bit tired. When he arrived at the place Hamma had pointed at he found himself in what seemed like some sort of play/training ground. Around the place there where a bunch of kids that seemmed around his age as well as some older ones. They all had the look of being used to a lot of physical excercise and possible a lot of Shinobi training. Rokugi was somewhat intimidated by this but then he noticed their faces. They all looked happy in a way, yes they seemed to be arguing over some competition but they all where enjoying themselves.
Looking at everyone from behind his hair he watch closely at what they where doing. He couldnt understand what was the game exactly . He had played very little back home for not many children lived with the Caravan. They seemed to be kicking a ball around although to what purpose was a mystery to him. Being shy as he is Rokugi walked over to some place where there was shade from a nearby tree and stood there to watch the other kids play. These where the people he would live with from now on,His train partners, His competition, his teammates and although he should start to get knowing them better he muster up his will to go and say hi.

The Tategami girl’s words had snapped the youth out of his game. He was ready to reply to Xyn with something that just might have made the crow go over the edge. Those words would never be heard now. Maya’s intervention had put a damper on his curiosity. So much, that Shisei actually began to scowl when she walked away. Part of the reason for the scowl was the warrior girl’s sudden care for mono eye. “There is no doubt then…” the snake child thought to himself as Maya wrapped Xyn’s hand. The mystery had been solved in his mind, although such tender care was annoying. Not even the snake’s mother had that much care for him. At least not over some small wound on his hand. The situation was becoming sickening. A warrior being resort to treating a boy over a small nick that was his fault. Shisei continued to watch the game for a while longer between Xyn and Serena. His mind did not pay much attention to Karite. The reaper would soon figure out the situation. His attention was not also set on the new person that entered the fray. He’d allow someone with more ‘hospitable social graces’, such as sly smile or the reaper, to become acquainted with him. Once the game was over between boy and girl, Xyn decided to take his stride over to Maya. “Like a blasted hurt puppy…” the serpent thought turning away in the opposite direction. For now three was a crowd and the maverick was not feeling in dealing with another couple at the moment.
