Tai Training Ground[open]

[†Lσcк†]

[continued from Ramen to start the day if somone followed renton]

Renton oproched the training ground and craked his neck and knuckled before undoing the straps that were across his chest. Renton then removed the metal vest that coverd his chest and droped it near the entrance of the training grounds. He then had on a black slevless shirt that was lose and wrinkled. Renton then removed the starps from his wrist before removing the clovves on his hands. Renton then craked his neck and turned around to wait for any one that acompined him to his training.

[kouros]

Kouros stepped into the arena fairly slowly, almost without a care in the entire world, as if he were on a stroll through the gardens. His bare feet touched cold steel, causing him to look down and see a metal vest on the floor, something odd indeed but he shrugged it off. Must have come from that guy. Golden eyes found a black haired boy near the center of the training grounds, cracking his neck no less, and apparently waiting for someone to come here. Guess he was waiting for me. Bare foot with the cool grass on his feet, yellow cargo pants that resembled a cheetah, and naked chest up save one single red and gold armband. Kokushu came as well, since the cheetah never leaves Kouros' side, spotted like a cheetah but with black fur down its neck and blotches of black on its tail.
"Did I keep you waiting?" Kouros chuckled a bit to himself, "Well at least I made it, even if it was fashionably late. You ready?"

[†Lσcк†]

(sorry bad post)

Renton turned to see the man with his bare chest. "Its cool I didn't wait to long. I will let you make the first move." Rentons eyes now focused on Kouros before getting into the goken stance. A small smile apeared across his face. 'It has been a while since I had a spar.' he thought 'wander how good this guy is.' Rentons focused on what move the opponet would make and how he would counter it.

[kouros]

"Its cool I didn't wait to long. I will let you make the first move." Kouros raised a single eyebrow over his left eye, then laughed a bit afterward, dropping his head a bit.
"Man...I hate making the first move...fine. Here it comes. My name is Oshikake Mitsurin Kouros by the way." Raising his head with a wild grin on his face, Kouros dashed forward at around the same speed as a sprinting cheetah, moving closer with each step. He stopped only five feet away from the black haired boy, dropping down and then jumping quickly, making a blur that traveled upward a bit.

~Option one~
Should his opponent happen to look up he would see nothing, while Kouros' foot will darts out aiming to trip the boy, his foot sweeping across the grass aimed for the boy's ankles. Should it be successful, the eight tons of weight on that leg will triple the effect of the trip, which would send Renton on a nasty ride. Next he would follow up with a low grounded roundhouse, also known as a rising roundhouse, aiming to strike while the opponent spins in the air from the successful trip (if the trip is successful that is). Finally Kouros will chase after the opponent should the roundhouse be successful, since the opponent will most likely be sailing through the air, and he would jump over them and deliver a quivering palm thrust down on his opponent. Successful or not, Kouros would land and leap back, making sure that he was not in range for a counter, waiting to see if his opponent could still attack.

~Option two~
Should the trip be unsuccessful, which would mean that the opponent did not look up, this is the course of action that will take place. Kouros will leap from the ground from his crouched position, unleashing a kick toward the opponent's face, hoping the knock the opponent silly with his eight ton leg kick (eight tons is the amount of weight he has on each leg). Should it be successful, which would mean that the opponent took a nasty blow to the face area, Kouros would land and then leap forward. Bringing up his right knee as he leaped forward, he would aim it toward his opponent's chest area, hoping to send him stumbling backward or knock his opponent flat. Should that be successful, Kouros would jump back and wait for his opponent to stand, if his opponent can still stand after the attacks, ready to counter or dodge if he has to.

~Option three~
If neither Option one or Option two are successful, Kouros will have to do something totally different, starting after the look. If the opponent does not look up at the distraction, which means that the opponent looks down, Kouros will leap up with his right knee extended. Aiming for the opponent's face, Kouros is going to attempt to send the opponent skyward, rising with him at the same time. However before they get to high off the ground, Kouros will send an elbow downward toward his opponent's exposed chest, if the knee worked of course, sending his opponent back toward the ground. If that is also successful, Kouros will begin to spin in the air rapidly at a nearly horizontal axis, closing in on the opponent as he spins faster and faster. Once in range, Kouros will send a heel drop kick down on his opponent, aiming for the chest with the momentum and the weight of the attack.

~Dodge Option~
Of course, if the opponent happens to dodge it all, well there is not much Kouros can do about it, and so he will have to do his best on the counter attack.

[†Lσcк†]

Renton would look up and see nothing before geting a suprise from below a masive sweeping. Rentons left leg would be the first hit before rentons body went airborn. Rentons right hand would land on the ground open palmed as the other fighter did his rising roundhouse. Smaking renton in the ribs on his right side. Rentons right hands fingers now dug into the ground keeping him from going airborn. Rentons body would smak the ground about 8 meters away from kouros. Preventing the third atack that Kouros had planed. Renton coughed up a small amount of blood before getiing back to his feet. Renton then whiped his mouth with his right forarm before mumbiling to hiself "That was pretty good. The names Renton By the way."


Renton then dashed for his opponet moving swiftly before leaping into the air before using Konoha Daisenpu which would hit the opponets right side if it did hit. If this would his renton would land on his feet in a crouched position before jumping towards his opponet who would be laying on the ground and slaming his right fist into the opponets chest weither that hit or not renton would use the force from the punch to flip back onto his feet past the opponet.

If Konoha Daisenpu missed than Renton would land near the opponet on his right hand and continue to spin launching his left foot towards his opponets lawer face chin area. This attack would be swift and almost unnoticed. If that were to hit his opponet would then be in mid air and Renton would push off of his hand to get air born behind his opponet. When his opponet would hit the ground Renton would land legs first ontop of him or if it was doged land on the ground before jumping several meters away.

If the Konoha Daisenpu is countered which is very unlikly Renton wounld definetly take the hit because he is comited to the teqnique already. Renton would then probably be sent back in someway shape or form before he would try to get back up if he was far enough away to do it without being interupted.

[kouros]

"That was pretty good. The names Renton By the way." Kouros grinned as he took a step back, noticing the blood that was spit up by Renton, but it was obvious that Renton was tough and not to be trifled with nor underestimated. Kouros took a step back just a bit, unsure of what Renton would do, watching as the boy rushed toward him with just as much speed as himself. It would seem that this guy is the same as me, unable to use that stuff they call chakra. Suddenly he say Renton leap forward and spin in the air, launching two kicks in his direction, one low and one high. Very deadly. Lifting a knee he blocked the lower kick, however he could not block the upper kick, taking the blow straight to the face, Renton landing on his right side. Another kick caught him off guard as he turned to look, connecting with his chin and sending him spinning through the air, a kick that hurt like hell too. Extending his right hand he caught some ground, using it to pull his legs down to the ground, then backflipping as fast as he could. Feet slammed into the floor just in front of him, Renton then leaping away from nearly having stomped him into the ground, Kouros landing on his feet but falling backward and rolling a bit into a sitting position holding his jaw. Blood trickled down the side of his mouth, however he grinned a bit.
"That was pretty good, I wasn't expecting that." He rose to his feet and began his assault on Renton.

~Option one~
Kouros closed the distance quickly, his feet carrying him with the same speed as before, a glare in his eyes as he charged. As he closed in, he ducked and skid a bit on the ground, twisting around and causing his move to look much like another sweeping trip. This was a feint however, and instead he leaped backward, sending his right elbow backward toward Renton's face (or chest if Renton leaps from the feint). Successful or not Kouros would spin toward his left, using the momentum he would try to strike Renton in the face with the back of his fist, completing the turn so that he is face to face with his opponent. Successful or not he would drop into a crouch, his right fist would shoot out toward Renton's abdomen, an attempt to knock the breath from his body. Successful or not he would then backflip, if the crouched attack was successful he would strike with his knees, if not he would strike with both feet instead. He would land a distance away, perhaps only six feet or a bit less, and he would wait to see what Renton would do next.

~Option two~
This attack is before he sends out the elbow, the rush still being performed, which means that it is a different course of action all together. Kouros will come within range of a kick swiftly, sending his right leg out to strike Renton across the face, however the attack will begin to fade into nothing as an after image. Instead Kouros will be above Renton, falling down on the boy from above, launching a swift punch with his right hand toward Renton's right shoulder in an attempt to off balance him. Should it be successful, Kouros will grip Renton's shoulder with his right hand, landing in front with his back toward the boy. From there Kouros would send his unoccupied left elbow backward toward Renton's gut, hoping to knock the wind out of his lungs, as well as make it easier for his final attack. If successful Kouros would then back into Renton, getting his body underneath his opponent's, and would launch him forward with a throw.

~Option three~
This attack is before he sends out the elbow or the after image attack, the rush still being performed, which means that it is a different course of action all together. Kouros would quick step to his left (Renton's right), pushing off with his right foot and landing on his left, skidding just a bit from the speed of it. A right hand fist would fly from him then, aiming for the right hand of Renton's face, hoping to dizzy him a bit from the swift blow. Successful or not Kouros will aim a left hand toward Renton's face again, hoping to strike him hard enough to stumble him, hoping to give him some time for the next attack. Successful or not Kouros would send a kick toward Renton's face, however Kouros would start to fade away, an after image it would seem. Kouros was now on the other side of Renton now, a side flip sending him over Renton's head to land on the other side, sending his left leg toward the side of Renton's head.

~Dodge Option~
If Renton dodges it all, Kouros will take a few steps back, however he will probably end up taking the next attack, since he is rather open right now.

[†Lσcк†]

Renton saw Kouros running for him before he knew it he slid to Rentons right. Renton would then get an unexpected hit to the side of his face causing him to be dazed for a spare moment but long enough for Renton to get hit with the follow up punch knocking him back. Renton then saw a kick coming for his head and he raised his arm to block but soon learned that that was not Kouros instad he receved a kick from the side he had not been watching. Renton then flew about 5 feet from kouros before sliding across the ground. Renton then stood up before spitting out a small amount of blood. A grin than appeared across Rentons face as he had found somone worthy to make a team with.

Renton would then dash twoards the opponet getting into stricking range before leaping a few feet off the ground. Renton than began to spin his legs twoards his opponet his left leg would reach near Kouros face while the right would be close to his hip but neither would even have the chance to hit beofre they fadded out.

Renton would then appear behind Kouros and lift his right knee to kouros spine located in the lower back. If theis were to hit it would cause intense pain for a short moment long enough for renton to create an afterimage and apear infront of Kouros where renton would then reach to grab his head and pull it down to his knee smashing kouros face but with only enough force to launch him back and not cause sever damage.

Renton could also apear to Kouros left before launching a swift right hook to kouros kidney. before launching a left hook to kouros dead center chest right below where the ribs stop hoping to cause him to lose his breath. If these two punches would succeed then renton would leep into the air spinning his left foot hitting kouros in the back of the head knocking him forward. Renton would then land before jumping several feet back.

[kouros]

Kouros watched as Renton charged toward him, leaping forward to perform that spinning kick again, however something was different this time. Instead of Renton even getting close to striking him, his image began to fade away, disappearing into nothing. Sugizou! It was almost too late when he realized, hearing a faint scratch to his left, turning his head to see and putting an arm between his body and Renton's right fist. It did not do much, he could still feel the blow to the kidney, but at least he would not be pissing blood at the end of this spar. There was no time to dodge the next strike, Renton's left fist catching him right below the ribs, knocking the breath from his body. Then Renton leaped into the air, spinning around him at the same time, suddenly he went forward with the force of a blow to the back of his skull. Even with stars exploding before his eyes, his lungs on fire from the blow that knocked the breath from him, he managed to roll as a recovery from the fall he was taking. Pushing off of the ground with his hands he was airborne, twisting his body so that he would land facing Renton, coughing up a bit to get the air flowing again. Regaining his composure he rushed forward...

~Option one~
Once within range Kouros would spin his body hard to the left, lifting his left leg as he skid across the grass, aiming a kick for Renton's jaw. Successful or not the follow up would be a right leg roundhouse, also aimed for Renton's face, the spin continuing afterward. Successful or not Kouros would drop down into a crouch, his left leg sweeping toward Renton's legs, aiming to trip him or at least make him lose balance by leaping into the air. In either case Kouros will complete the spin so that he is facing Renton again, rising from the ground he will send a straight forward kick toward Renton, one that would hit him in the chest if successful whether he jumped or was tripped. Kouros would then skip back a few feet and wait for Renton to come at him, knowing that the next attacks were going to hurt just like the ones before them, but eager to see what would actually come forth from this fighter.

~Option two~
Coming within range of Renton at such a swift speed, Kouros will raise his hands in the common boxer stance, stepping in with his left foot first. First a jab will be delivered toward Renton's face, Kouros' right arm flying forward in a blur of movement, one that could possibly daze Renton if it was successful. Whether it is successful or not Kouros would follow up, his left fist aimed for Renton's chest, flying out at about the same time as the right fist was being retracted. Following the left fist up Kouros would slide his left leg back and lean to the right, his right foot moving forward, his right fist launched in a hook toward the side of Renton's face to knock him silly if successful. Finishing that is Kouros' final move, his left knee rising to strike Renton in the gut after the hook, hoping to stun Renton into submission but highly doubtful.

~Option three~
Kouros would leap forward and skyward, performing a twisting swan flip almost over Renton, that way he was facing Renton's back as he was coming down. However he extended his legs as he got close to Renton's back, a double kick between the shoulders is what he was attempting, hoping to send Renton to the ground or at least stumbling forward. Continuing the flip Kouros extended his hands and landed on them, pushing up so that he could twist his body and land on his feet, rushing forward regardless of whether the double kick was successful or not (View Sub Option three for events if Renton falls to ground from double kick). He would leap forward with both knees aimed toward Renton's back, hoping to knock him flat on his face, as well as land on him as he fell to the floor. From there Kouros would leap into the air, backflip once, and then attempt to land on Renton with both of his knees again.

~Sub Option three~
If Renton was stuck by the double kick to the back, and then indeed fell on the floor, this is what would transpire. While on the floor Kouros would send a kick toward Renton's ribs, hoping to strike him hard enough to be stunned by the pain, as well as to lift him from the ground. If this is successful Kouros would move with the now airborne Renton, sending an elbow down at Renton's back and bringing a knee up, hoping to double strike Renton on both sides of his body. If successful Kouros would then grab Renton by the back of his collar to keep him up, placing a most likely dizzied Renton back on his feet, unleashing four jabs to the face (two with each fist) before leaping back and waiting for the attack of Renton.

~Dodge Option~
If Renton dodges it all, Kouros will take a few steps back, preparing himself for Renton's counter attacks.

[Yrael]

( I'll fight the "Winner", so here goes an out of order post, plus it will be short, and sweet. )

After a while, Tsuki went looking for his brother. Coming across the grounds that his brother and Renton were fighitng at, Tsuki sat on the sidelines and then yelled: "I fight winner!! and then continued watching the fight.

[†Lσcк†]

Renton would see him come towards him once again this time he would raise his left arm and bloack the first punch but still sliding backwords. Renton was than hit in the chest by kouros left arm. Renton quickly caughed as his eyes widended from the punch. Renton then lifted his left arm again this time blocking the hook that he managed to see coming Renton then slid sidways before getting a knee in the chest as he coughed up a small amount of blood. Renton then flew back several feet before landing on his feet once again although in a crouched stance. Renton then sttod up once again before smiling once again this time blood can be seen on his his teeth. Renton would then close the gap between him and kouros quickly with a dash. Renton would then drop and perfore what apeared to be somthing similar to a basbal slide towards kouros feet.

[option 1]
Renton would hit the legs of kouros causing him to become airborn spining forward towards renotn. If sucsesful renton would then grab kouros by the back of his head or his hair whichever he could get his hands on first. Renton would then bring kouros' face twoards his right knee. Kouros would then go backword over Renton. Renton would finish slinding and keep kouros from landing on him. Renton would then push with his hands fliping backwards landing on kouros back before leaping off backwards.

[option 2]
Kouros would leap above Rentons slide and Renton would gab his legs as he slid under kouros bringing him down to the ground. Renton would then Roll over and jump to his feet still hanging on to kouros feet. Renton would then jerk his body right and throw kouros to the left. Kouros now airborn would be open to Rentons next attack where Renton would grab the hair of kouros as he jumps onto his back smaling his chest into the ground. Renton would then leep backwords off of kouros.

[dodge option]

koros manages to doge all attacks

[kouros]

Heh...I'm pretty tired and this guy doesn't let up...man, talk about stamina. This might be my last set before I go down...this sucks... Kouros watched as Renton charged toward him, amazed that either one of them were still standing from this fight, but it looked like he would be the one to stop first. As Renton began some kind of baseball slide toward him, an odd opening attack at best, and one that slightly confused Kouros. However he was not about to let that confusion stop him from moving, leaping into the air to avoid the slide that traveled underneath him, however Renton had something else up his sleeve as well. Kouros felt a hand grip his leg, looking down surprised that Renton had caught him, feeling his body rushing back toward the ground. Slamming onto the ground, a bit of dust rising from the loose soil that they had loosened, Kouros coughed a bit as the air left his lungs. He felt his body jerk from the ground, and then suddenly he was sailing through the air, Renton closing in and reaching for his head. Kouros decided to do something about it then...

~Option one~
As Renton got closer to him, Kouros began to twist in the air, his long legs able to reach the range just enough to strike a good blow. Using the momentum of his spin Kouros attempted to kick Renton along the right side of his face, using his left leg to strike the blow, one coming at an upper diagonal that would send Renton toward the ground; a gamble at best because he was totally defenseless. If successful Kouros would flip in the air, landing on one knee and breathing heavily, his body sweaty from the exertion. Rushing toward a most likely recovering Renton, he closed the distance in no time, throwing his right fist toward Renton's face. But the attack faded just before it could strike, Kouros now on Renton's left and delivering a kick toward his face with his right leg, aimed right at the side of Renton's head. Spinning he lifted his left leg, aiming to clothesline Renton with the roundhouse, however that attack faded as well. Instead Kouros was in front of Renton, aiming his left knee toward his opponent's chin, hoping to knock him skyward.

If successful Kouros would follow him skyward, spinning his body the whole time as well, using the momentum to build up power for his next attack. Once he reached the same area as Renton, he would launch a kick with his right leg toward Renton's chest from an upper diagonal, one that would send Renton back toward the ground at an incredible speed if successful. He wasn't about to let up just yet though, landing on the ground near Renton, picking him up from the floor after such a massive fall. Sending two fists toward Renton, one right and one left, Kouros was aiming to pummel Renton a bit. Afterward if it was successful Kouros would open his fist, sending his palm toward Renton's chest, his entire arm shaking violently from the technique he was performing. If this was successful it would most likely cause some internal bruising of Renton's organs, although it would only be slight, but it would be painful for a while. Kouros would leap back afterward, falling to one knee some distance away, coughing up quite a bit of blood and breathing heavily.
"I can't go on...that's it for me..." Then he fell forward on to his face.

~Dodge Option~
The ending will still occur, Kouros falling on his face from exhaustion, however Renton would have dodge all the attacks.

[†Lσcк†]

Renton was airborn as he saw kouros spining before the leg came towards renton raised his right hand which took the kick instead of his face. Renton flew to the grownd sliding slightly before getting up onto one knee before seeing the fist coming towards him. Renton lifted bolth of his arms to bloack the punch before getting kicked in the face from the left sending renton to sliding across the ground. Renton was now on his knees as if he was begging before he saw the spining to do the clotes line. Renton fell back onto his legs and avoided the knee by acident. Renton than heard kouros anouce that he was exausted before falling. Renton than stood up and looked down onto the one he had just been engaged in a great spar with. "your good but i win." Renton said before falling back to his hands and knees before caughing up a small amount of blood before he stoped and whiped his mouth with his left forarm. Renton than stood up again and looked over to the one that came half way threw and noded before speaking "So your my next opponet" Rentons face now slightly swolen and he had a giant headach.

[Yrael]

"Yeah, I'm up, but you cant hit me as hard, I'm not a Master in the ways of Taijutsu. But, I'll let you use, oh, say, 2 of your weight-poles. But remember, don't swing too hard!"

Tsuki hopped up to face Renton, coming into a small crouch, with his katana out. He was in a stance that let little room for attack open.

Standing there, he stared into Renton's eyes, trying to discern any movement he might make, because Renton was obviously faster and stronger. But perhaps not as much of a thinker, though Tsuki could be wrong, very, wrong.

OOC:// Yucky, bad post...

You should get exausted, and i'll play a lullibie on my flute, and put you to sleep, lol.

[xsnixx]

Hitomi was passing the arena, eyes locked on te ground in front of her. But, curiousity piqued her and she turned her head to look at the field, where voices and fighting seemed to be taking place. She turned and hopped closer, crutches slowing her ascent forward, but she got there eventually. She stopped, leaning onto a crutch and looking out onto the fighting...was it a trio? No, only two were actually fighting, a girl and a boy. Hn. She hadn't actually met either of these guys, maybe seen them around, but never met or knew them.

She slowly laid down her crutches and sat, watching them curiously. One, as she had seen a tid-bit of, was a taijutsu user. The others, she actually hadn't caught what they specialed in. She remained silent, continuing to watch. If she could learn from any of these people, perhaps she would get a better understanding on who they were.

[Yrael]

( Where did you get a girl and a boy? It's three dudes here! )

[xsnixx]

Ooc/ OMG!!! I thought it was a girl, I don't know where I got that from..Sorreh!^^'

[†Lσcк†]

Renton bent over lifting his pant legs before he took out twelve poles and begining to asemble them. Renton created a ten foot pole then grabed it from the middle. Renton then sliped one end of the pole under his right arpit the pole pointing out towards the next opponet. "Names Renton and this is my weapon of choice. Your up, you make the first move." Rentons pole pointed about three and a half feet away from his hands. Renton was ready to counter Tsukis sword with his own pole.

[bad post this sucks]

[Yrael]

Staring back into Renton's eyes, he noticed Renton picking up and assembling his poles. After he finished. Tsuki exclaimed: "Hey! Only two pieces! Or none at all!"

Standing there, he waited for Renton to undo his pole.

[another bad post]

[†Lσcк†]

Renton disasembled his pole and said "your no fun and i got to go and take care of a job." {exits}

[xin]

lol, you runnin away from me....
