Rumble in the concrete Jungle

[Deleted]

Seemingly randomly our two combatants would find themselves in a place that could only be described as Neo Tokyo. Towering sky scrapers of reflective glass seemed to gleam and glow in the sun that glowed a bright orange as it started to set. There were hundreds of flying machines that seemed to zip past over head at speeds of 70-80 mph. Shiki watched as the machines whizzed past and to say he was taken a back was an understatement. With his gear Shiki was used to being the cutting edge of modern technology. But this was... Insane. 

A bullet train shot past him at speeds that broke 200 miles per hour. Shiki watched as the train was seemingly floating over the rail. "Magnets?" Shiki said as the machine whizzed past him. He only had his talos arm guards on him and his Tokihaga. He gripped his blade a bit concerned. Whats going on here?

Everything was a blur, Amira couldn’t make out what it was that she was seeing as she pushed herself up from where she had apparently fallen. “Shit that hurt…” Amira grumbled as she pushed herself up from the metal grating of what would be recognized as a train station roof to the average person, but Amira was left unaware. She wore an olive tank top and a khaki pair of cargo pants to match her fire resistant boots. Her mesh tactical harness was fist over her body, fixed with a crossbow pistol holster on left side, just about under her armpit. Two small pouches on her right side of the harness housed a pair of fully loaded crossbow pistol magazines. On the left side there was a pouch full of 40 explosive tags and 1 kunai, and a second pouch with 15 bo shuriken. On her left hip was a leather butt pouch full of 2 slots of shuriken, 40 fake explosive tags, 20 locking tags, 10 fire tags, and 10 ice tags. The pouch also held 1 frag grenade, 2 smoke grenades, 2 sting grenades, as well as 4 kunai knives and 2 loaded magazines with balanced shafts and broad head arrows. On her right leg she had a holster with 4 Kunai knives, each fitted with an explosive tags as well as a large combat Tanto made of a special Umbrite. Her Darksteel Katana was fixed on her right hip as she pushed herself up to a standing position.

Her hair was tied back in a ponytail, but her brown hair looked a mess as she stood to face Shiki at the other side of the train platform. A speeding train seemed to be moving by, but Amira couldn’t comprehend where she was. The city scape stretched for a while. The flying machines, the smell of pollution, the large moving vehicles things, everything seemed too surreal. She had never seen such things, and was very concerned as to how she had gotten in such a place. “Shiki, what is the meaning of this?” Amira asked as she looked at Shiki who was higher up than she was standing somewhere above her, as she stood next to a stair case leading back down a small path towards the cityscape away from the train platform. She was scared, clearly who wouldn’t be. Her urge to run was certainly very tempting, but regardless running wouldn’t do much good if she ran into more of this strange machinery.

She had a journal stashed away in her pack for notes just in case she wanted to take some, and figured it would be good to document things as she analyzed where she was. The Train was coming into station, and she had to deal with Shiki before things got out of hand and innocent people go hurt.

Shiki shrugged as he looked over at her. "This seems to happen a lot." Shiki said offering very little explanation. "You know the drill of course. We fight each other until we inexplicably stop fighting as per usual." Shiki said a bit annoyed that he was forced into another one of these strange fights. Shiki reached his hand down on the edge of his Tokihaga and pulled the blade from its sheath. He closed his eyes and when he opened them his blood limit was active.

"So... Shall me?" Shiki said with a playful grin.
