Ryūko had awoken beside [Name] still somewhat asleep he was mumbling something that didn't quiet make any sence. When she tried to get up she found that his arm from the previous night was still around her waist.

She was about to move until [Name] wrapped the other arm around her and began mumbling something she couldn't make out. She after about a minute decided to just give up and wait for him to wake up instead he had a rather firm grip.

As she did she put herself in the position she had been in the previous night and scooted closer to him. She was about to fall back asleep until [Name] had woken up.

"Oh *yawn* hey Ryūko-chan." He then saw how close they were and where exactly his hands had been. He at that moment got up a blushing mess. "S-sorry I-I didn't know." He then clapped his hands together and bowed his head saying "please forgive me."

Ryūko had to admit that he looked a little cute when he did that. He then got up and was about to leave until he heard the female in the room. "You know you talk in you're sleep?"

He turned back to the other and said "That's a little odd to bring up but yes I know. why?"

She just giggled to be honest [Name] had no idea why she was being this way he usually didn't remember his dreams. He just sort of shrugged them off as nothing more than fantasy.

"Well see you later." [Name] said as he left the room. As he did he saw Mako at the door. "Hey Ko-ko-chan where are you going?[Name] asked.

"Well I wanted to go to the park today." She said as she was about to walk out the door.

"Well we can come with you." The voice of Ryūko said as she walked past [Name].

The girl nodded eagerly and [Name] stuck his hands into his pocket to make sure the gloves from yesterday were still there. When he felt both he relaxed a bit. 'I just can't shake this feeling.' [Name] thought as he left for the door.

They walked through the park and oddly enough [Name] was relaxed and went to the sakura tree that was at the top of a hill. He just sat their until he heard someone sit beside him. He looked over to see the girl he shared a room with.

"Hey [Name]" she said as she took a seat next to him.

"Hey Ryūko-chan what is it?" The male said as he closed his eyes.

"Remember this morning when I asked you if you knew weather or not you talk in your sleep?" At this the male sat himself upright and looked at her.

"Yeah I remember. Why?" [Name] said as he gave the female questioning look only then did he notice that her face was nearly as red as it had been when they were playing the Pocky game.

"Well you said something in your sleep that got me just a little curious about something." Ryūko said her face only becoming more red.

It was at moment that the ring that [Name] always wore glowed a violent shade of black. This got both the teens attention.

[Name] looked at it before his grew wide in horror and he whispered "Mako" before he ran off.

Ryūko followed close behind they ran all over the park until they found Mako running towards them and they soon saw why. The elite four where chasing her. [Name] shoved Mako behind him and Ryūko got her scissor blade ready.

The four had heard about how fast [Name] was that alone was intimidating. Top this off with the Ryūko girl and they were not in the mood to wait to show off their final forms. When they did Ryūko yelled out "Kamui Senkutsu".

[Name] saw a bright light that he looked away from and when he looked back he saw Ryūko wearing a very revealing outfit. The male blushed and felt a nosebleed coming on but then he remembered the task at hand. 'I can ask her about it later.' [Name] thought as he reached into his pocket.

Ryūko then turned to see what he was doing when she did she saw him slip out two red gloves from his pocket and put them on. When he did the gloves seemed to tighten around his hands. he then bashed his knuckles together and said "activate".

As he did the gloves became a pair of red gauntlets that had three distinct features about them. They cover his entire forearm and where broken out into scales the next was that they had holes on top of them facing towards him they then released a small amount of steam and stopped.

The third and most noticeable was they now had seven small orbs where the back of his hands were they formed a circle and contained what looked to be nothing but a white design in the shape of flames.

Ryūko looked over his weapon of chose one more time. 'That's a close range weapon. How on earth does he plan on using it?'

"This may stop other but you are forgetting that [Name] can move faster than the normal person can see." Senkutsu explained.

"I'll take Ira and Uzu you can have the other two." She nodded and they split into the group they had decided upon.

[Name] looked at the two in front of him and smiled. "Well now it has been a while since I was so on edge. So who do I owe this unexpected pleasure to?"

Ira rushed him and tired to punch him. when he did his fist met that of his gloved one. He smiled and went for a second punch. That was until the holes from [Name]'s gauntlets released a massive amount of steam and forced Ira back. When this happened [Name]'s other hand released steam and made contact with Iras gut.

The force from this punch plus the help that the steam provided sent the muscle bond male into the air. [Name] then while the first male was still in the air went after the second. When he did something strange happened Uzu actually managed to dodge it.

'Strange I was using almost 50% of my true speed. How did he manage to dodge that?' [Name] then smiled and got excited about the fight.

As the air born male came to a landing he landed on his feet and turned to Uzu "I guess this guys no push over." Uzu said as he to smiled.

The two males then ran at him and separated trying to they came at him from to different directions and Uzu went high while Ira went low in a move that surprised the two. [Name] flipped dodging both attacks this made clear as to why when the jet streams on his right glove released some steam and his hand was sent into Uzus side.

After he was upright in the air he used the steam to grab the leg of Ira and righted himself on the ground before the male could counter with a kick he was sent face first into the ground. [Name] then felt something hit his side he turned to see what looked like a wooden sword.

He then saw who was holding said sword and only became more excited. As the two looked at each other they nodded and Ira grabbed Uzu and sent him into the air. When [Name] looked up at the air to see Uzu he felt a sharp pain in his side he looked to see Ira with a smirk on his face.

[Name] went skidding about ten feet and when he stopped he looked at Ira and felt a crushing pressure from above him and looked up to see Uzu with his wooden sword planted into his back.

When the impact was done Uzu got up and walked over to Ira they then saw they male stand back up.

"Damn that little trick of yours actually hurt." [Name] then sent a glare at the two "I should warn you though I never fall for the same trick twice." As he said this the two smirked and Ira once again threw Uzu into the air. Only this time [Name] darted at Ira.

Ira stood still and smiled when he did [Name] returned it with his own and held his hand across his chest and sent steam shooting out of it when he did he rotated on his heel and his hand met the face Uzu. This shocked Ira to the extent that he hadn't noticed that [Name] put his hands out in front of him and steam once again shot out of the gauntlets. Both his hands were sent flying into the gut of Ira which cased the male to cough up a small amount of blood.

When the two got back together they heard the teen announce "I could have swore I told you I wouldn't fall for the same trick twice." [Name] said with a satisfied smirk planted on his face.

He then heard something that took his attention immediately. It was the horrified scream of Mako "Ryūko-chan NO!" When he heard that not only was his little sister scared that Ryūko had also went down as well he didn't think twice before he ran off. When he got their he saw Ryūko laying on the ground not dead or bleeding but she did seem to be unconscious.

He then looked to the other two that had soon become four. "So you two haven't beat that new kid yet." Nonon taunted.

"No we haven't actually so far we've only gotten two hits on him ,but now that all of us are here we should be able to deal with him rather quickly." Ira said with little shame.

"What happened?" [Name] asked as he turned to Mako.

She looked at him and began to explain "Well when Ryūko-chan was going to attack the girl the boy popped out of no where and hit the back of her neck. After that she just fell down."

'The back of the neck huh. So he knows marshal arts this combined with the muscle head the ninja wanna be and the unknown girl factor could turn out to be a bit more troubling than I had originally planed for.'

He looked down at his gloves then faced the four of them and placed his hand together as if he were praying "activating stage two". When he said this the glove changed color and became white as well as the jet streams now shooting out white flames the orbs that had once been on the gloves dissolved and became one with the newly colored glove.

When he turned back to the four he looked at them. "So you still intend to fight us?" the girl said as she walked forward.

"Of course I do you came after my family and that is unforgivable." [Name] said as he rushed forward when he did he felt a pressure on his ribs he turned to see the boy with teal hair with his palm hitting what he knew was a pressure point.

[Name] was sent flying into the girl who had kicked him over to Uzu he tried to use his gloves to punch the green haired male but when he did Uzu dodged and sent him to the ground with his wooden sword. [Name] was about to get up until he felt a large fist hit his gut. He looked to see Ira pressing his hand into his stomach.

This cause [Name] to cough up a large amount of blood. As he did Ira picked him up and tossed him over to Mako. [Name] looked up to see Mako looking at him with a horrified face. He felt it coming he was about to pass out and soon darkness took over.

'I . . . I have to protect them . . . but how?' Where the thoughts of Mako.

Mako stood in front of them and she wasn't going to attack them but she wasn't going to just let them take her best friend and big brother. As they approached she suddenly saw Uzu dash forward and felt him hit her in the ribs. She was sent straight into Ira who grabbed her by the color.

"We still need to punish you for what you have done." He then looked over and said "Not before we mako you watch what we're going to do them first of course.

As Hōka walked over to pick up [Name] something very surprising happened. The fabric on his left hand and index finger got eaten away. This revealed the ring [Name] always wore.

The ring started to glow a violent shade of black once again and they then saw [Name] raising to his feet. [Name] looked over to Ira to see that he was holding Mako he then noticed the rather large bruise that was now on her right side.

"First Ryūko-chan then my Imōto Ko-ko-chan." as he said this the ring turned from black to red.

"No . . this will not be allowed." he then removed his gloves and reached for his ring. he looked up at them with cold dead eyes the same that installed fear into the hearts of the three boys he had faced. "Lets see how long you last-" as he said this his hand touched the ring and the shine only became brighter "when I'm accessing all of my power."

When this was said he removed the ring and a massive amount of wind was released. His muscles became slightly bigger and more defined and his wounds and bruises started to heal very fast. "Now then . . . lets continue."
