Snippet #2396023

The dust cleared and Hark could be seen holding himself up with one hand, his other behind his back. He was hand-standing on top of his boomerang which itself was perched atop a spike right under him. He dropped his arm and fell onto one of the spikes, and as he fell on to it it shortened until it was no more and he touched the floor of the arena. He touched the spike his boomerang was on and it shrunk down to nothingness as well and Hark grabbed his boomerang mid-fall. He swung the giant boomerang with his right arm and smashed the spikes around him down. He stomped and their remains shrank away. "Earth against Earth usually makes for a tough match up," he smirked, "but let's see you handle something else, maybe the Gale Strike." He reared his arm back and flung the boomerang with great force. It flew fast and had an added boost of air behind it, strong enough to move Hark's jacket forward. The deadly weapon flew toward Piper quickly, trailing behind it was a forceful gust of wind.

A woman in with raven black short hair in a blue military jacket approached Kaine, and tapped him on the shoulder, she asked if he was the contestant from a couple of matches back. She showed no amusement or excitement in anything she said, in fact she showed no emotion at all. She was accompanied by a hunched figure in a hooded military jacket, he stood so still that someone might have though he was a statue. Neku noticed as he looked over at the noise, that when he looked at the figure, there was absolutely no magikal aura, not even the small amount present in living things, but he knew that this must be a person. Neku didn't like what he got from the figure.

Evan looked at her and her expression. She was mad, but not at Evan specifically, she seemed to hate Kaine. "You act like he's a soulless monster, but I don't know why, if you've known him for so long then maybe you can explain why he's hanging around those people, why he chased after me in my confusion with the girl in the ring, and why he didn't do worse to Yurishi, why he would hold back or even care to be friendly to anyone." Evan tried not to agitate the situation or irritate her. He saw Kaine being approached by the black haired woman and a figure the same as at the stairs to the balcony. He thought now, that maybe if he could at least learn a little more of this situation, that maybe he could help.
