Ranshi looked at Akira. He had no desire to engage him, so he put it briefly.

"I won." He said, giving Akira an icy stare. To him, Akira seemed to an arrogant, disrespectful brat who seemed to think everything came to fighting skills. The way he disregarded life like one would a mere coin was one of the lowest things a person could do. He's probably trying to analyze my fighting tactics as we speak...

"I won." Ranshi said.
"Well, I kinda figured that one out for myself." Akira chuckled.
"Mind telling me how? Even though it pains me to admit it, but we are on the same team. We need to share combat and tactical styles with one another if our team would stand any chance at all when it comes to a squad battle. For example, lets say if I was team leader, and I had no idea of your fighting style, your strengths, and weakness, I could order you into a situation where you would be at a disadvantage. Which would result in your death. Even though loss of life is acceptable as a Ninja, loss of Human life should be avoided at all costs, and senseless lose of Human life is stupid. I will make you a deal, you tell me your style, and I shall tell you mine?"

"Well, I guess it's my turn now," Raziel said with an uneasy tone walking towards his sensei. He didn't really pay attention to the others as he approached Yuuki. "So, sensei, you wanted to talk?"

(OOC: Dangit, Spec! Allow me future suspense! ...Lol...)

Ranshi, annoyed at his teammate's persistency, was becoming tired of the sound of Akira's voice. He opened the coffin that was sitting next to him (As it was no longer on his back due to the fact that his strap was broken). It was angled so that Akira couldn't see it exactly, so grandma remained hidden. Focusing his chakra slightly, so slight that Akira wouldn't be able to pick it up unless he was trying, he made the skeleton erect itself in the coffin. Akira, still being unable to see it, was sitting next to him. With a quick jolt of his chakra, he made the skeleton rapidly collapse - Onto Akira's lap.

"That" He said, "Is a sample of my jutsu. Although, most of the time it's used combatively."

"Dying is more honourable than surrendering…I look forward to the day I can praise you."

Hisoka gradually sifted through his thoughts and calmed himself once more. With that the sharpening stone went back into a pouch as Yukki-sensei’s and Ranshi’s words echoed in his mind. I still need to grow up…I still need to prove myself… He thought to himself as he added, As to what sensei said, I’ve been taught there’s two sort of fights one for your honour…and one to protect. But I’ve also been taught you should know when to fight and when to run…but when does running become a surrender? The boy wondered as he casually spun his kama with the string like tie that was wrapped onto his hand. Should I ask Uncle, or Yukki-sensei for their views…no I’ll work it out myself, I’ve cast away my honour too many times today especially in front of my team mates. Well maybe later…


"To use family as a weapon is, in my clan, giving the highest amount of respect to the life, and death, of that person. She chose to give her remains to me…to further myself through her death."

The whole concept of Ranshi’s clan and using the remains of relatives to fight was alien to him, and he had to admit it did unnerve him slightly. At this point he wondered if the other boy knew what he was doing as he pulled out his Grandma against his own weapon based techniques. With a sigh he caught his weapon mid whirl as he picked up on something else Ranshi had said.


"Combat is the way we have chosen, and we recognize the risks. So holding back is not in your best interests."

With a decisive nod he rose and headed over to Ranshi, “Hey I’d just want to take back what I said earlier, If we have another chance I’d like to fight you again. Just as long as you know I’ll be using my weapons to fight against your grandmother..” He said hoping the other boy understood what he was trying to say. In other words he’d fight, but he’d be using his weapons with full knowledge of the damage they can do.

At this point he ignored Akira.

Ranshi was thankful for the distraction, and stood up to talk to Hisoka. He liked talking to him rather than Akira, because his personality was bearable.

"I will accept your challenge, when the situation permits." He said, looking him in the eyes.

The thing that dropped into Akira's lap was nothing scary or new to him. However, using the dead for combat is a disgrace. This monster that disrespects the dead, is no better then Orochimaru of the Sannin. I have lost all respect for him, and will hopefully one day kill him. How dare he? If this was my brother's bones, I would kill this dishonored so called ninja right now. But laws must be followed, and one day I will hopefully get my chance.

"Thats nice." Akira lied, and gently placed the bones back on the ground.
"Well, I'll give you a taste of my fighting styles then as agreed."
Akira focused what little chakra he had.
Ram - Rat - Tiger
"Suiton, Mizu Shurinken no Justu (Water Style/Element Water Shurinken Justu)."
From out of the ground (or so it appeared) two Shurinken made out of water appeared, and floated into the air.
"My chakra is infused with these, and I can control any way I wish. The more Chakra I pure into them, the Stronger they get, and the faster they go. The faster they go, the more piercing power they get, and you should know what that means." The shurinkens fly around Hisoka's head. "Ok, thats enough for now. Maybe, if you live long enough, you can see more." The shurinkens explode above Hisoka's head, drenching him in water. "Oops."

(mtg! Come on! You're being slow...)

Ranshi recovered his grandma's bones, and put them back in the coffin.

"Interesting technique... Although, you may want to perfect it more - You wouldn't want them exploding randomly in battle, would you?" He said, walking away.

"By the way, you're a terrible liar." He said, calling back.

[Species8472]

"HAHAHAHA! Yea true. And yes I was never good at lies, thats against the Akira clan code. Unlike your clan, at least we have respect."

(yes where is mtg... omg)
