Rai Hiso - 18

Light was sprinting along rooftops, testing out the extent of some of his abilities. He was quick, moving fast, jumping and pulling on the buildings in front of him, to propel himself towards them faster. He began to slow and exhaled, having fun with his own powers. As he stretched his arms up he could feel a drop of sweat fall from his brow. He began to laugh as he walked to the edge of the building, “That’s enough for today.” He said as he stared off. He didn’t see Kazuma in the distance, and he didn’t really even think about the boy. Instead he just stepped off and plummeted down, landing on the ground and causing a few cracks to come out from beneath him. He exhaled as he landed, and his knees bent to absorb the impact, with his inhuman abilities aiding in keeping him safe. He was ready to just start to relax except that he was picking up reiatsu now, not to far off. Though it was weaker than his, if only slightly. His eyes began to scan before they landed on Kazuma who wasn’t too far. He wondered what the boy would think, but Raito didn’t move, he would let the boy move if he chose too.

Rai Hiso - 18

Light was looking at the boy who was moving towards him now. His eyes stayed focused as he was unsure of the boys intentions, especially with the large grin the boy was sporting. His hands stayed low and he looked very relaxed, though he were playing out scenarios of this boy being dangerous within his own head. The boy asked what he was up to and Light stared at him. “Practice. Just practice.” He told him, using his senses to sniff out the boy’s reiatsu. It felt similar to his own, a little hollow. This was another fullbringer. Which in itself became clear when the boy began to play with his rings which let off some heat that even Raito could feel, even though they had some distance between them. “What do you want?” He asked, sounding slightly hostile, not use to meeting others like him. He was still worried about the boy’s intentions. There had to be more to what he wanted.

Rai Hiso - 18

Light listened to the boy and slowly began to relax. It seemed he didn’t truly have any ill intentions. But it seemed he was looking for something to do. Rai knew he could easily give the boy something to do and the word fight rose up more than once, making Rai think about a friendly spar. Rai could already picture the fire that that boy would be using against him. His darkness whip and shield could only do so much, but he wondered what the one in front of him could do. “Rai..” He said offering his name, still analyzing the boy and wondering what tricks he had up his sleeve. “If you’re truly looking for something to do, then a friendly spar could ease your boredom, if you don’t mind getting a little hurt.” Rai said honestly, “Now you are?” he asked expecting to get a name in response. Once all of that was cleared up Rai would step back and reach downward, and his shadow began to move up into his hand, creating a katana made out of darkness with no guard on it. His shadow was still there in it’s entirety. Then Rai, would stand and wait, “Your move.” he said, waiting for the boy to initiate some sort of attack.

Rai Hiso - 18

Light raised his weapon quickly to attack. The boy’s claws sparked against the katana of darkness before the boy was spinning to forward thrust kick. Light quickly moved his head to the left, while his blade shifted and moved so that it would cut horizontally along the attacking boy’s calf. It wouldn’t be a dangerous cut, but it would make the boy think twice before using any attacks without his weapon. When the boy jumped Rai didn’t move an inch, instead he waited, and as the boy came down there was suddenly darkness that shot from the ground, forming a shield that protected Light from from the claws that attempted to cut down his back. And as the boy was coming down, now unable to see Rai who had his hand touching th shield, shooting a piercing beam of darkness that would pierce right through the boy’s left shoulder, nearly impossible to dodge because of the boy’s own attack, and his inability to see Rai to know he was launching a counterattack. After that the shield would vanish, and Rai would be lunging forward with a horizontal swing, aiming for the boy’s stomach, left to right, before he follow up with a diagonal strike, from the boys right shoulder to his left hip.

Rai Hiso - 18

Light didn’t bother as he saw the boy had moved back and away, instead he let his fullbring completely set in as his shield returned into his shadow, the darkness rising up and wrapping around Light, even creating unstable looking wings of black on his back. “I’m waiting to see it.” Raito said slowly as he pulled his blade in close to his body. As the cross of fire was shot at him Rai lowered his body, then jumped, rings of blackness that seemed to suck light in appeared, his bringer light was actually a darkness. As Rai was jumping he was flipping, at the end of his flip he swung his blade, getting pushed back a little by the force of the impact before he shifted right, letting it slide off his blade. Suddenly he turned, sensing the movement of the boy, spotting the two fangs were now coming at him. Rai floated to the left and let one pass by, before he swung at the weak second fang that was trying to ignite him. His blade did ignite for a second as some of the fang’s energy lingered on it.

“Come on.” He said as he was breathing a little heavier than he wanted to be. “Keep it up, I’m not even sweating yet!” He taunted, “Where’s the heat!” He shouted disappearing and reappearing in front of the boy, his bringer light making the air around him dark as he appeared, there was a quick upward slash, aimed for the boy’s chest to simply graze across him and make him bleed and step back, before he would point again and fire off a beam, aimed for his side, in between his right side and arm, to cut both.

Rai Hiso - 18
Fatigue - 15%

As he reappeared the boy disappeared, and so Raito stopped and didn’t press his attack. Instead, he sensed the trail of reishi left by the bringer’s light, and his head snapped up. As the boy began to drop, Rai took the sword in both hands, along his hip, ready for a quickdraw to attack, and as he could see the same form as before he began to swing. The heated reishi collided with his blade and the flaming fang would split, shooting off past either side of Raito. He began to sense again and looked up to the buildings, the trail sending his gaze up there. Rai inhaled deeply and smiled, this boy was shooting a lot of fire, there was no way he wasn’t about to start feeling some fatigue, and Rai had barely done anything. He was feeling good, stretching his arms up, his muscles out to fade out their slight aching.

After this he began to walk up, green lines showing where his bringer’s light was affecting the air, creating a super denseness that allowed it to be walked on. It was like he was on steps approaching Kazuma. “Come on now, you’re not afraid of the dark are you?” He asked Kazuma before he began to start sprinting. He expected another one of those attacks, and if one came he would jump to the side and continue to charge up his imaginary steps to get closer.

At the end he would be on top of the rooftop, with about fifteen feet between him and Kazuma, with a smile. “Let’s do this right now.” He said looking up to his left, the side he had just run up. if he pushed the boy to the right, he would gain a huge advantage. His eyes never flicked to the side to show what he was thinking, but the sun was perched to his left, Kazuma’s right and it wasn’t doing Raito any favors. “C’mon!” Raito taunted, waiting for the boy to come at him.
