Welcome to Gaia! ::

The sixteen year old teen walks through the shadows of the corridor as he approaches the arena, the cheering of the crowd growing louder and louder. The adrenaline was running through his veins as his heart began to beat faster and faster. Coming to a stop just a few feet before the bright light that was the arena, he inhales, then exhales sharply, walking out onto the sandy ground as the entirety of the bustle hits into his ears, revealing the crowd that sat before him, awaiting to see a great match. It was up to him and his opponent to not disappoint them.

His appearance revealed a spiked brown haired boy with a black open short-sleeved coat over a blue and red underneath shirt. He wore a mix of red and black for pants with two pouches strapped to them on each side of his waist. His shoes were quite big for his feet, but they worked well for him. And on each hand were fingerless black gloves, which he makes sure is fit tight to the form of them.

He walks toward the center, hoping to meet his opponent at the same exact place. He didn't know what was in store for him, but he knew this fight would take him to his limits.

The darkness that overcame the place so suddenly indeed had placed him into a worriment, stopping as he looked around with worry on his face. Rather, curiousity to what was going on. When he saw a man walk out from a malicious looking vortex, he simply sighed in relief, glad that it wasn't some monstrosity with three heads, large wings, or whatever demon image came to his mind. It was only a normal guy. Well, almost until he sensed a large wave of darkness go through his body, obviously caused by the conflicting evil within his opponent. When the two finally meet at the center, Kawaii simply stares on, seeing the fangs and feeling the continuing evil intent that swarmed the man's mind.

"You better entertain me, boy."

In that moment, the keyblade appears in Kawaii's right gloved hand, the two and half foot long blade decorated nicely in its ornate fashion of which was the Ultima Weapon, daining the symbol of a heart near the tip. Kawaii bends his knees as his left hand also meets the handle of his wielded weapon, taking stance with a bit of ten feet between him and his menacing opponent.

That is when he says:" Same to you, too."

Kawaii smiles as he nods. In a way, he was also feeling the building urge to fight, this being fueled by the crowd's roar and the readiness of his opponent. He sees the man relinquish one of his blades, PAIN it was, into the sand, while keeping the other one in hand. Was he being fair and allowing Kawaii a "chance" against him, or was that sword for another purpose? Obviously, the swirling sand would be noted in his mind.

But now, Kawaii was ready, his opponent was ready, and heck the entire crowd was ready. But that sense of darkness was still nagging at him, and he knew the feel of the impending doom-like emotion and energy from his past experiences. He stood there motionless for a moment, as if starting a staredown with Genshin. That is, until suddenly Kawaii lunges forward, left foot first, swinging his blade from right to left after raising it a bit from its place to his right side. The horizontal yet slightly angled slash was aimed at the frontal part of Genshin's body, mainly between the chest and the abdominal area, going for a half foot deep cut from his range.

The sudden surprise of Genshin's seemingly long blade attacking indeed was a last second realization from Kawaii. As his swing is following its path, the sword is going forward. However, the fact that he raised his sword gave Kawaii just enough time to see this action occuring, as simply tilting his blade toward him would already alert the teen to not run into it. When the stab comes, the keyblade changes course as from its intended path to a more unorthodox one. Simply, Kawaii quickly has his hands move up and toward his left shoulder, bringing the keyblade into a tilt toward the ground at a 45 degree angle while Kawaii bounces off his left foot, starting a mid air turn, deflecting himself from the attack, using the stabbing sword of Genshin to ride himself into the air as the keyblade moves against it, which will change the course of Fury's stab to the right, particularly at nothing.

He will now be upside in this aerial cartwheel. His motion would be quicker, however, than a normal person's flight through air, as his descent brings his feet toward the ground as he follows his new manuever. Yet right when his left side will be facing toward the ground during this, a sudden flash from under Kawaii's feet will occur. In this instant, Kawaii will turn his body to the right in a very abnormal motion to face Genshin, followed by swinging his keyblade at an angle that defined it between a horizonatal slash and a vertical slash, from right to left, going for a cut through Genshin's left shoulder, as he will execute a slight aerial charge at him, as if he was flying now. This time, only his right hand held the keyblade, having his left arm move in balance to add more fluidity and speed to the attack.

Kawaii was truly in trouble. This man had not only stopped his attack, but was about to give him the worse wound of his life. That is until Kawaii performs a quick leap as he follows the pull by his opponent. Like he was on a spring, he bounces into the air, spreading his legs wide to have the stab just barely miss, as he leans his body forward to have him look down at Genshin from his angle. He was bobbled how the man could take grasp of his weapon without being cut by the sharpness of the keyblade, but maybe he had tough skin. Either way, as the stab misses, Kawaii utters one single word:

"Fire!"

In that very instant, fire erupts around the blade, a severe surge that can cause major burns on Genshin's right hand and arm. But this was only the wake of it. Only a split second later would he feel the full effects of his magic. A great explosion will occur, which will cause a recoil to slide the blade out of Genshin's hands, if he had not already removed it during the initial fire eruption. While Kawaii will be flown back for probably fifteen feet, Genshin would be met with a point-blank fire projectile that will not only knock him back for some distance, but also inflict him with a force that can easily send a person into a KO and flames that can seer through many metals in only a few seconds. It probably wasn't a good thought to imagine what it could do to a living being, but Genshin was about to be the first test subject of this.

He sees as his attack hits, yet the problem was, the man still kept hold of Kawaii's keyblade, as smoke erupted upwards after the fire swirled around Genshin's body. Of course, his feet would touch the ground two feet to this opponent's right due to his descent being shortened by that pull on his blade. And then came the words:"Is that the best you can do?"

His keyblade is suddenly pulled on while at the same time another stab was coming at him. He had no choice but to relinquish his method of attacking for a moment's time to save himself from a painful attack. With a roll to his left, the stab would be avoided just in time, while he places himself behind Genshin at the same time. And right near that vibrating sword, too. He knew something was up with it when it caused that small sand pickup. It was no normal item, and Kawaii knew not to trust anything that his opponent had. When he had rolled, the keyblade will flash, suddenly disappearing from Genshin's grip, moving as an invisible magical entity back to Kawaii's hands.

When his roll is finished, the keyblade appears back in his right hand, while kneeled a bit with his right knee nearly touching the ground, and left hand planted on it. He was right behind Genshin with no time to waste. Using this to his advantage, he dives forward yet to the left a split second after his roll. This movement will have him pass diagonally from Genshin's back and past his left, while at the same time, sending a swing from his keyblade toward the back of his right leg's knee and left leg's knee, the right being the first target in the path. If struck, this can very much severe his thighs from his shins. But if he truly was as strong as Kawaii thought, then the blade's power would merely trip him on his back, while doing some good damage while at it.

The keyblade was not just a channel to send magic from one person to another, but also part of Kawaii's soul. In truth, it represented his will, Kawaii pledging trust in it, while it does the same. Any attempt of nulling its abilities would reslt in failure, as usually, the blade would just disappear, not wanting to be tampered with any longer by a foreign body that it does not see as its master.

It was a weapon with its own will. To copy or read it in anyway, Genshin would have to do a lot of diagnosis on it. He would also have to disrupt the thing that stood between him and the keyblade's true soul: that being Kawaii himself, which meant killing him. And so, no matter what his intents were, they would not help in trying to disable Kawaii's weapon, having it easily return to the boy's hands, as wanted.

"Mmm... it seems this Ultima blade has some acquiring abilities."

Kawaii sees now that he has yet to get his opponent off guard. Because of this realization, he does not attempt his dive attack, as he had failed in trying to surprise him. And so, it would not be known if Genshin would have wanted the blood wall to come up in the first place or as a way to block an attack that never happens. If the kick would happen, Kawaii would roll to the left and a bit forward once more to dodge it, only to stop kneeled down and see PAIN shaking with glass around it not too far from him.

"What," he says upon seeing it before returning his attention to Genshin. This man was truly a case for Kawaii, but he would not allow him to discourage Kawaii to back down. It was only the beginning of the match, and he had yet to show his stuff. Kawaii would stand back to his feet, keyblade in both hands and to his right, looking toward Genshin who was only seven feet away. A smile comes onto the teen's face. He was ready once again for another clash.

With that, Kawaii dashes at Genshin once more, keyblade raised a bit with the tip pointing forward.
