"Hey, am I completely invisible or what." Gray was almost mad. Then he though 'Wait.... I know this dude ain't just call me a kid.' Gray leaned in closer to the ominous figure, "Hey just who do you think you are, I happen to be seventeen. So you can't go around calling me a kid, that don't fly." Gray leaned back out of the figures face and told him his name. "I'm Gray, Gray Adison, and you better not mess with me." Gray didn't want to walk away, but his gut told him he was ad news. His pride won, then he remembered his mother, 'You really are turning out to be more like your father, Gray. Next thing you know, you'll be plunging head first into battle without thinking.' That's exactly what he was doing now. He knew this guy was trouble, and that he may have to fight him, then he finally noticed the guy standing next to him. "Hey, are you Xenos Altair?"

[Silver Rose]

Xenos stared at the stranger with a sarcastic look, although none could see it because of his sunglasses. "Yeah. Sure. You throw out bit of ice and now you think yer some kind of boss man. Puh-leeaase." He cracked his knuckles. "If it's a fight you're looking for then I have no problem taking you down."

He turned to the boy as he was called by name. "Yes sir," he replied with eagerness. "Xenos Altair. "Brave, courageous, and quite the ladies man, if I do say so my self. Do want an autogr-wh-wha-wait one freaking second! How en el nombre del Diablo did you know my name?"

[Maximus Kenzijuki]

"Hmm" As staring at all three people. Like nobody is paying attention "Ugh, I hate being third-wheel, my name is Cicero Nexor. I am a, well. I like using shadows, now don't call me a weakling for that, shadows are cool you know. They are very good to tell the direction and time." As saying this like he doesn't understand the conversation at all, maybe they are talking about the explosion that happened "Now that I introduced myself, what happened here?"

[Quinn Estiva]

Yet another person Naajai hadn't recognized. Where were these people coming from, and how many more will suddenly pop out of nowhere. And where was his gang? Are they being delayed just as he is?

Naajai glanced at Cicero. He wasn't sure whos side he was on; his side or the... whatever side Gray, Rip and Xenos claimed to be on. Guess he'll find out soon enough. Afterall, 4 against 1 would make this a fair match.

"This is a waste of my time." Naajai sighed. "Let's make it quick."

Naajai forms a handful of icy throwing stars out of the palms of his hands. As he continues to form the sharp stars, they begin to swirl around him as if creating somewhat of a barrier around himself. Focusing on his targets, the stars one by one appear to be shot out of the swirling barrier toward Gray, Xeno, and Rip. Since he wasn't sure about Cicero, he simply kept a eye out, but once the kid makes a wrong move, he'll be ready.

[Ryek Marachion]

" ugghhh. Hey, ugly. Did they teach you fire safety in class?" rip asked with a bored look on his face. Though no one else could see it through his mask. He lights his body on fire, melting the barrier with punches." chemical fires can't be snuffed out by such weak amounts of water." he said laughing as he ran after naajai." I made this coat, lacing it with a chemical, so, as long as I want, I'll BURN!" he then used the flames on his feet to float, centimeters of the ground, going faster towords a building that had seen the explosions true wrath." your ice tricks won't work on me."

[Silan Jester]

"First we kick some tail, then I'll explain how I know you." One of Gray's eyes flashed Silver, the other Yellow, and he called. "Paradox." He glared at the Ice as he formed as many paradoxes as possible, Fire melts Ice, Thunder shatters it, Water slowly melts it, that was good enough, Gray had enough powers now. Gray formed a Water sword infused with Electricity and swirling with Fire. "Who told you this was going to be easy, I still stand undefeated." Gray smirked as he awaited the moves of his newfound allies. Then, he saw a figure approach Naajai from behind, a female too. It seemed she was his ally, and from the look in her eye, she probably caused the explosion. She turned to Naajai and said, "Master, I will be fighting too. If that's okay?"

[Silver Rose]

Xenos scowled again. He wasn't too crazy about secrets being kept from him. "Fine kiddo, have it your way." He turned back to Naajai. "Okay Frosty, let's see how well ya dance." The young man had no trouble dodging the ice stars. However, his opponent wasn't a pushover, he noticed, as one of the stars went for his feet. Quickly, he jumped over the star, but not without being hit in the sholder by another.

"Gah!" Xenos grimaced. "You're gonna pay fer that punk!" He looked around the area for a host. He needed someone who could help him wipe the dust with this kid, and fast. He looked at Gray. That boy was doing fine on his own. There was that creepy shadow kid, but he wasn't too sure about that guy. Then there was that other kid that was watching them. He looked like some sort of ninja. Xenos had noticed him right before the fight. However, he didn't trust that kid either. That left......

"Hey you!" Xenos shouted at Rip. "Yeah, you. I need you to turn around." The masked boy didn't respond. This made the young man irritated. "Come on you clown college reject! That's right turn around you overgrown matchstick!" Xenos wasn't sure if Rip was angry, irritated, or what, but for a split second, the boy turned around.

The black haired boy smirked, that''s all he needed. Xenos rushed towards the flaming boy, and in one swift motio, pulled back his fist an buried it into Rip's chest. After a fraction of a second, Rip's body had absorbed Xenos'. Instantly a light shone and a large sword appeared in Rip's hand. "Okay flaming mime." Xenos instructed, the humor gone from his voice, "Listen up. I need you to cut this punk down to size, ya hear me?" After he spoke, the sword burst into flames, melting the nearby ice stars.

It was at the moment that a girl appeared behind Naajai. "What the-? I could've fused with that pretty girl....aw man....."

[Maximus Kenzijuki]

"What the-" Cicero seems to be confused from all this fighting "Okay, just stop this" Shadows popped out of nowhere holding Naajai, and another shadow choking him. "Not cool bro, I don't care who you are, but that was just wrong to mess with them!!'

[Deleted]

Gray nearly laughed out loud, as he saw that Xenos was disappointed for not fusing with the girl. He was laughing to himself when he noticed the girl approach him. Her hands held down, but there were small crimson orbs in her hands, which were probably used to make the explosion a while ago. Without looking up the girl sent the orbs flying, they exploded on the ground by both of Gray's sides. "I will only ask this once, what is your name." When she looked up, Gray was surprised at how cute she was. In a split second he was inches from her face, "Gray, Gray Adison." She started to blush, then another orb formed on the back of her hand and she swung at him, the explosion sent him flying. "Natalie Kert, I'm going to be the one who kills you." Gray stepped back, "not gonna lie, that caught me off guard, but there's one thing you're missing. I can't die." She became dumbfounded, "wait, what. What do you mean." "I mean, I promised my mom I'd be back before midnight, so therefore, I can't die. If I break my promise, my mom will kill me." "You really think a promise is going to stop me from killing you." She flung the orbs at gray, who deflected him with his sword of Paradoxes he gathered a while ago. "You know, you have really pretty eyes." "Will you... you really think.... hey stop that!!" Gray smirked, "Oh I see now, everyone has there weaknesses, yours just happens to be a good compliment." She swung out another explosive orb. "Why you," Gray dodged effortlessly, her aim was starting to fail. "Why won't you die, I don't like you," Again, Gray was inches from her face, "But I like you." She started to blush, "You know, you're really cute when you blush like that. So why do you even work with that guy?" She thrust an explosion at him, but it moved slowly, even though Gray was point blank, he was able to dodge it. Gray was even starting to think she stopped trying to kill him. "Why aren't you fighting me, I am your enemy, but instead you shower me with compliments. I know they aren't true." "Actually, I meant all of it. I won't fight you, It isn't right to hit a girl." Natalie remembered everything Gray had Said to her, 'You know you have really pretty eyes', 'You're really cute when you blush like that', 'I don't like you' 'But I like you', that last thought stuck in her head. She turned and ran she had to get away from Gray. Natalie was feeling a lot of mixed emotions, loyalty to her master, some feelings for Gray, she didn't know what to do.

[Quinn Estiva]

Naajai was struggling to keep the icy star barrier going with Rip punching through. A normal person would've been cut to pieces, but he was lucky he had fire on his side. He then noticed Gary using... what was he doing. The sword the kid formed looked interesting. Water, electricity, and fire. This guy had a unique set of powers. If only he was on the right side.

Naajai heard a familiar voice and glanced over to see Natalie, his apprentice. This was a good sign, for it meant that the last of the charges were set. It was intended for him to check-up on the progress earlier after watching the first explosion, but he trusts that she was successful in her task. With that taken care of, the bomb should start going off any moment. Luckily, the fight was taking place on the opposite side from where the explosion would be taking place.

"Fine by me." Naajai said to his apprentice's request.

Naajai suddenly found himself struggling with what appeared to be shadows coming out from underneath him. This confirmed that Cicero wasn't on his side. The distraction of the shadows holding and choking him kept him from keeping the icy barrier up. The icy stars that remained simply fell and shattered. He formed ice throughout his body to help prevent the shadows from crushing him. Then, he struggled as he started using the ice around him to push away the shadows. Unfortunately, this distraction wasn't helpful for him as he also tried keeping up with where everyone was. Afterall, it would be a shame if someone got him from behind.

[Maximus Kenzijuki]

Cicero seemed to look at the girl while struggling Naajai "She was on that guy's side, hmm. She looked a little cute but that was just weird" As the shadows became weaker Naajai seemed to get the shadows away from him. "What the, I must of not been paying attention, ehh, to lazy to strangle again" As Cicero looks at his watch and seems he is late for something he seems get going "Got to go, tell me what happens, it should be in the news or something anyway." Cicero puts on his hood and mask and seems to teleport away into shadows.

[Ryek Marachion]

" I don't care! I'm ready to KILL SOMEONE!" rip shouted out. Then in his conciousness, he spoke to xenos. I didn't need you to tell me to turn this man into a human wreck.rip then utilized the flames on his feet and the sword to rush after naaji. He wildly cut, trying to slice him into a wedding display. if this doesn't work, I'm killing the girl. his old temper was getting the best of him. This sane thing happened in kindergarden when he lit two kids on fire. He grabbed them by the shoulders because they were making fun of his drawings. The next thing he knew, the two children burst into flames.but that was old news.

Gray sighed, he had always been popular at school, but he never really went with any of the girls. Then reality set back in, he also had that other guy to.... the bombs, they're still, then another explosion went off, kicking up dust. Gray could barely see anything, he took his blade of paradoxes, he cut his way through the sandstorm. Then his blade dissolved, he began to paradox the explosion, "Paradox," Earth.... that's all he could think of, good enough. He used his new paradox to bulk up his body as he charged into battle with Naajai. He punched at him but it was effortlessly evaded. This form made him too slow, but at least it wold protect from his Ice.

[Quinn Estiva]

With Cicero gone, Naajai could focus on the other two... or three... considering whether or not Xeno counts. He decided on a defensive plan as he dodged their attacks. First, he sprayed a thick coat of ice on the ground. This caused Gray to stumble a bit and allowed him to put more focus on just one guy, Rip... Though the ice under Rip's feet quickly melted away, which was creating a smoky mist. He was part of his second plan of defensive.

Using the combination of fire and ice to his advantage, Naajai blocked more than he evaded Rip's attacks with intentionally weak icy shields. He knew that he wouldn't stop slicing away, so he used his aggression to created a lot of mist. However, he noticed that the plan wasn't working well as the steam evaporated too quickly. Time to change tactics.

Taking a step back, a glare from a building's window got in his eye, distracting him enough to take a minor cut to the forearm from Rip and a heavy punch from Gray that sent him flying a few feet away. His new plan came to mind.

He formed a more durable icy shield on his right hand and an icy sword on his left. He's noticed in the past that being left handed had always gave him the upper edge being that most people are right handed and are usually training and encountering with other right handed people.

As his continued his battle, he used his shield to reflect the sunlight from the icy shield at his enemies. This made it easier on him to deal with them. However, he did notice that landing a hit was difficult being that Rip practically melts his sword (which he quickly fixes in a flash) and Gary practically feeling nothing even with a successful hit as it doesn't even manage to get through the tough earth. Though he was successful in distracting and avoiding the attacks, he needed to find a weakspot to finally get rid of them once and for all.

[Silver Rose]

Xenos, not too happy about his choice of host let a message boom in the boy's mind. Look here ya idiot! You can't beat this guy by using me as a freaking base tool. I'm a living, breathing weapon for freaking crying out loud. If you want to destroy this guy then use me right punk! He let the message echo through the masked kid's head for a few seconds.

Now, he said with a much calmer voice, I need you to wait and listen. Xenos let his mind focus on Naajai. He focused mainly on Naajai and his attacks. This guy was definitely no rookie.

Xenos noticed the ice warrior's battle technique all too well. He was simply conserving energy bu using weak manuvers and attacks. If he were to use his full strength against three other fighters using their full strength, even with the girl on his side, he would be toast. But, if he waited until Xenos, Rip, and Gray were worn out, then he would have no problem mauling them.

(Hmmmmm,) the sword thought, (Theres gotta be a way......Aha!)
Rip he spoke, in the boy's mind again Although swords did not have mouths that didn't stop Xenos from being heard. We have to get him from behind. and there is only one way to do that. The flames on Xenos died down, Throw me
