"That was my money! Hey give it back!!!" The shuffling of hands towards the male sprinted throughout his arms, showing that he was much weaker then the individuals that overtook the boy, with a shove and a push to his body, he stopped and fell to the ground with a look of despair. "It's mine, why do you want it, get your own damn money!" A kick came from the supposed leader, as he trampled the boy prompting the others to begin to do so as he chuckled.
"Wow, this is a lot of yen, 30,000, you must of worked for a long time to gain so much? Whew, this will be buying me and my guys here dinner, shorty, and from now on you will be buying us dinner once every week, with the reply towards such a thing, a beating from us to you... do you understand?" He said with a sadistic grin, as the boy would try to run towards him with the full might of his fist, however he tripped under a subordinates foot and fell, crying more so. "No... you can't..."
The figure moved to the boy and grasped his head, laughing as he watched his face cry tears of total sadness, the boys faced featured small nicks and a bit of blood from his nose. "Just what are you going to do about it kid, nothing that's what..." The male said with a small laugh and then an erosion of laughs from his posse would come.
"Wrong..." A shift in eyes would come to a lone figure, who had been watching and waiting the entire time, looking towards the guys around the school, he had only sighed and scratched his head. "So, what's this, pick on a lone weak guy who can't fight? Man what a sorry bunch of bitches..." He said placing his hands in his pockets as he laughed.
"Kinniku-senpai?!" The beaten kid said as he watched in astonishment of the opportunity to see the legendary "fist" of the school, the one who had been fighting not only within boxing, but fights in schools, having a sort of reputation of protecting the weak, however not gaining a girlfriend, much to his disappointment was a downside, but he still hated the people who would use the weak to do their dirty work or wouldn't fight their own battles, but when it came to crowds, well it was something he couldn't stand to see.
"Huh, hey dipshit, who the duck are you?" The leader said throwing the boys head into the grass, as he began to walk forward with a large frown. The leader had prompted his subordinates to go around Kinniku and begin to get ready to beat him as well. This only made Kinniku laugh, as he scratched his head.
"Just call me something along the lines of, Asskicking Deliverer, ya know, yeah something like that..." Of course, he was arrogant and that always got him into trouble in the past however, this wasn't the past. Kinniku didn't even move in inch, he didn't look scared, nor was he afraid of them. He looked positively calm, comfortable and great; he was within his natural environment, the battlefield.
"So which one of you stupid-asses wants to come at me first, eh? I'll let all of you or some of you or even, just the leader there..." He said with his lips yawning halfway through the sentence scratching his head.
The leader had gotten out a "toy" something he loved to use in a fight, a bat, which he grasped and began to play with. "Well, all I can say is, you're going to get a worse beating than he is..." He slid the bat forward twisting his fingers along the shaft and swung it forward, as he laughed, and smash, came the bat towards the head of something... but it wasn't Kinniku, it was a subordinate.
Kinniku had been behind the male and was now bending to the fallen student on the ground brushing him off as he placed the yen within his hand, something which dumbfounded the leader as he searched his pockets.
"How the fuck did that happen?!" He said as he began rushing towards Kinniku, his subordinates following as Kinniku's eyes shifted, his body straightening slowly, as he a flash would come forward, with such reflexes and quickness, he had begun to hit the individuals, without actually being seen by them or anyone for that matter, as he was already behind them, he had begun to spin his arm. "Not even a warm-up..."
The individuals had fallen on the grassy outdoors, and had been knocked unconscious by Kinniku's incredibly fast and strong punches, however, he hadn't used even a fraction of his true strength knowing the effects of what he could cause full well. He however did break the bat which was made of wood by snapping it with his bare-hands."Yamada Uichi, you actually tried to fight back, so you earned all I did for you, just be careful next time, OK?"
He smiled, and looked to Kinniku for a second, before Kinniku looked back to the gang, and sighed beginning to pick up their bodies. "Now for the overkill..."
A few minutes later, Kinniku had hung the individuals from a wall structure, from their school uniform (consisting of a buttoned jacket with dress pants both the same color) and wrote with a marker he had asked for from someone close by. 'We suck ass...' On each one of their foreheads, as he had been done with his "job" he had patted the wall and laughed, going towards the school doors once again.
"We need to reinforce these walls, how the hell do rival schools get in so easily, either way good thing its a free period or I would have been in trouble..." He sighed and looked forward scratching his head, "Hm..." Kinniku had sensed something, a feeling of killing intent was close-by and made Kinniku look a bit on the unsure side, he scratched his head. "But where is it coming from?"
Lilith came to a halt, she had unwittingly arrived near the high school. She sighed, turning half way to look behind her. It was still pursuing her. Of course it would be, she had barely moved from it’s path. She didn’t want to have to fight it, but she could never justify leading it toward children. She bit her lip as she considered her options. She could run, try to get past it. But even if that worked and she lost it, look where she had lead it. It seemed she would have to take responsibility for it.
The large creature poked its head out of one of the streets, eyeing her with what seemed to be a grin on its mask.
“So you’re the tasty treat I smelt ” it cackled, approaching her with obvious excitement. “And you can see me too? Aren’t you an interesting one”
“I don’t suppose there’s any chance of my convincing you this is a bad idea for both of us?” she asked, her tone borderline concerned. She hadn’t fought anything for a long time. While she had a move that had come naturally to her, the idea of killing again… She couldn’t say for certain how that would impact her at this stage.
Ignoring her words the hollow greedily approached. Her slightly saddened mood quickly turned into one of annoyance. Here she was trying to be noble, and all it was thinking about it how nice she would be to eat. It was hard for her not to be indignant. She rose both her hands into open palms, closing her eyes in concentration. White strands of chilled water pulled from about her converged between her palms, slowly forming a tiny maelstrom in her hands. The little storm quickly had icy spikes bobbing to the surface and back until the entire thing froze into a jagged pale blue sphere of ice. Opening her eyes to the hollow who was ignoring her actions, it mouth ajar as it began reaching out to snatch her, she pushed her hands forwards, firing the ice toward the hollow.
It realised the danger of the little girl too late. The icy sphere disappeared into the mouth of the monster. A moment later there was a muffled bang its upper body and head violently shook, small red ‘blades’ appearing on its neck. With a thud the creature collapsed.
Realising what she had done, Lilith turned on heel, a mouth of her hand in case her throat gave in to the sick feeling that was swelling. She dare not look back out of shame. Her wide eyes searched the street while inside the cogs of her mind were at work processing her actions.
It was self-defence. And you could not deter any hollows she had met. They were all die-hards. Desperately wanting to be out of the way of the hollow she had murder, she began to shuffle forward, away from the corpse.

(This was before the Arturo Incident)
What was this feeling of power, something that seemed different somehow, everything about the swelling of power. It wasn't as strong as his own power, but it was still an incredible amount of force. Gazing and thinking of what may have caused such a strong signal. He had calmed himself down, and made his way towards the signal. The path to pain was paved with the sorrows of a female who had just realized her own strength.
"Woah?" Slowly, he took in what he had just seen. This female had great enough power to kill a Hollow by herself. What was this day, it wasn't as if he was confused about the powers of persons abilities. He wasn't so sure that she had known what she had done by herself but given the circumstances it was quite a feat. He walked over to her, looking at the husk of a Hollow's masks having a gaping hole within it.
"Well, well..." He kicked the Hollow's body towards the side, placing his hands within his pockets looking to the woman who was frightened at what she had done. "You're mad cause you killed one of these things, don't sweat, they are evil and corrupt bastards who don't do anything but kill people so it's fine." Taking her hand into his, he would shake it grinning. "My names Kinniku, I'm actually the enforcer of things around here with those things, they are called "Demon's"." He was obviously wrong about that, it didn't really matter however. His voice would be cut short as now he felt even more paths of power coming within the scene.
"Well, guess we have company." Taking up his neck, cracking it to the left and right. "You got some power right, or I can take all these little bitches down, don't matter to me." He would sigh, placing up his fists as roars came from all over the place, four Hollow's would converge as he stood within the middle of the fray. "So, can you fight?" He asked not turning his head a small grin was on his lips. This was the day when he could have some fun, by fucking up the Hollow's around him. Did he even need his powers for this group of lowly bastards, probably not.
His aura would however be in full swing, as it grew, the light green tint that covered over him had gone up, similar to a flame. "Let's get this party started!"
Lilith nearly flinched when the boy made himself known. At first it didn’t register he could see the hollow too, not until he kicked the body. She made to tell him off for doing so but he casually addressed her first. She turned away from him unable to so quickly respond to him as he casually shrugged off the death. Young people were always more rash, and perhaps quicker to learn. She could understand his perspective even if she frowned upon treated the death with so little consideration.
“Hollows…” she corrected as little more than a whisper. She turned to the boy, studying him momentarily so as not to be rude and stare. A highschooler. Just a kid. Though no, that wasn’t true at all. He carried himself with unshakable confidence. He could see the hollow and did not seem in the least concerned. If she had to guess she would have said he was like her. Though given his confidence, clearly he had not met with loss yet. She was about to ask him if he even knew what they were when a powerful feeling took hold.
She gasped, realising they were surrounded by four hollows. She turned her head to look at him. His confidence really was unshakable, she gave a curt nod, before raising both arms above her head. Focusing on that feeling again, she felt her power surge. It’s intensity notably less than her new companion. Water flowed from thin air from her body up her arms before a final surge came, and in a blue light her arms were coated in a layer of thin ice, with three knife-like claws on the end of her frozen fists.
Lowering her arms into a crude fighting stance she checked on her ally, who was now practically glowing a faint green. She stared at him. He really is like she was when she was younger, maybe even more in control of his own abilities. Stightly unnerved by the boys surprising power she turned to face where one hollow was coming from.
On his words she bolted forward, both her arms out stretched on either side, slightly tilted forward, ready to slice her enemy. The blue hollow made a jab towards her, she jumped to the side, raising a clumsy fist and bringing it down into the hollows arm. It roared in pain before making to swat her away. She was barely able to withdraw her bulky arm to dodge in time. She dodged another swing, this time making towards the body on the hollow, aiming a thrust into what would be a vital area for a human. But this time the hollow used its elbow to deflect her entire assault, knocking her to the floor. She has to roll to avoid the hollow pounding the ground where she lay not a moment ago. Steadily raising herself once more she frowned. These fists sure looked scary, but they were far more weight than she was used to, and she was already feeling a slight strain.

The source of the female power, the essence of an icy overtone went up his body as the temperature would decrease a bit, his hands in his pockets. "Ah, so I see the beautiful princess is going to fight against them too, no doubt these powers are able to freeze your own reiatsu, interesting strength." Keeping a smirk on his face, taking his hands out his pockets, he would begin to stride forward, beginning with the Hollow in front of him, he would kick with an incredibly strong blow, spinning his body in rotation.
Taking his hands to the ground as his body unwound he would slip his leg underneath the Hollow's foot, a loud smashing blow could be heard. His attacks making the Hollow fall towards the ground. This was no problem for him, something that could be solved easily with his amount of strength and incredible martial arts prowess. Taking his foot into an aerial attack he would smashed into the Hollow's body, not killing it only making it screech. His leg would twist for a moment as it went unconscious.
"Yo, how you doing there, Ice Queen?!" His eyes gestured back to her, watching her attacks he was quite impressed she knew how to handle herself so well. However, this would be overshadowed with the Hollow he kicked away coming at him with a fierce will to kill.
"Die!" Would scream the oversized creature with a rhino mask, made for its head. The attack would come, but no go would the ask actually arrive. Kinniku had already made an angled kick towards the hollow's head as he kept his watch towards the female. "H-how?"
His voice would be calm with a hint of sensation, the thoughtlessness of the crude tactics of the enemy had not truly affected him. "You gotta be weary of your surroundings, that's the first thing they teach you in Jeet Kune Do, especially since..." Kinniku's fist would smash into the Hollow's Mask beginning to bleed, as he chuckled. "You guys are easily seen through, so much will to kill so little t-" He stopped, after he had seen that she was in trouble, Knuckles wouldn't hesitate. The Rhino Hollow would begin to disappear screaming. There were three left.
As the creature would begin to move for a strike, his body leaped, the powerful legs which he had utilized to kick the first Hollow away, needed to be used this time as well. Powerfully, he would use a leaping kick towards the head, releasing a screech, as the impact power of his own kiai would increase the impact. Sending the creature flying, as he shuffled, pushing his thumb into his nose as he landed on the ground. "Yo, Icy Queen, always be on your toes, it doesn't seem you have a handle on your body, so you need to be a lot more careful, you may have powers but you are still human!"
Kinniku stood in front of her the three Hollow's left seeming looking as if a bird, a muscle man, and a shark man. "This human is becoming a nuisance, get the hell out of our way!" Kinniku would laugh and shuffle once more.
Lilith was too focused on her own fight to really pay attention to what the boy had been doing. She trusted that he could take care of himself and that was that. She was becoming so immersed in her own fight she had nearly forgotten about him entirely before he kicked the hollow away from her. She stopped and blinked at him, surprised to realise that he must have been watching her. Even more so to then realise he had already dispatched an enemy, and without breaking a sweat at all. She turned back to the shark-like hollow, she had wounded the hollow, but his last hit on her had proven that he was hardly down and out yet.
She rose her arms again. The hollow seeing this screeched again, swinging another mighty fist down upon her. She leap to the side and charged again. This time he swung his other arm towards her. Leaping above the arm, continued her charge, raising her left claw dragging it across the hollow’s skin. The hollow howled in pain again, brutally tearing his arms high, her claws embedded resulting in her being flung into the air too. He brought both fists crashing down, fracturing the concrete.
Lilith landed between them, barely able to keep an unsteady footing. The hollows eyes narrowed, its mouth curling into an unsightly grin. Both hands clapped together. Lilith barely had time to raise her arms into a defence. She was only lucky she was able to keep herself from getting squished. But still disorientated the hollow unclasped his hands to look at his prey. Seeing her off guard he shot a brutal punch, knocking her into a nearby wall which cracked a little from the impact. Lilith fell to the ground after the impact. Her lip was now cut, a faint flow of blood trickling out, and her body was bruised. She looked up at the approaching hollow.
She knew what was missing. Her fire. Long ago she had the will to fight, but now. It was just too painful to go back and reclaim that part of herself. It was buried beneath too many painful memories.
Picking herself up she staggered to her feet, raising her arms shakily for round 3.

She had gone away, the caressing powers of her powerful claws making him shift his foot, as the Shark Hollow chased her. Kinniku was about to go after him, yet was stopped by the muscular Hollow, the creature who began to laugh. "You're ours little bitch." Beginning to change its fist into a pair of of gauntlets. "All ours!" The bird-like Hollow would dash towards him, firing off feather like projectiles as he would dodge in a backwards leap as they went and dug into the ground.
Kinniku had then been chased by the Muscular Hollow, whose fists had been strong enough to make an intense impact where Kinniku had last stood. He breathed outward sliding out of the smoke. He was going against two on one, and though he had incredible power, the muscular Hollow had strength and the bird-like Hollow had projectiles. 'I also need to keep that woman safe...'
"Stop running away, you stupid little jackass, you aren't living to see another day, going down our stomachs will be your last memory!" Kinniku had dodged with relative ease, he had to think of someway to get out of this situation. The bird began to screech loudly making a sound-based blast as it pierced the skies, Kinniku was hit by such an attack, and sent flying as he screeched. "There's just so little a human can do, face it you two are gonna be our next meals!" Once again, the muscular Hollow would say beginning to walk as the bird Hollow flew.
"Shit..." He said as he would watch them both, he had to get a grip. Now was the time to not allow this to happen, he needed to do something he wasn't planning on. Not only that, but it seemed the female was having her own problems with the Shark-Hollow. Kinniku had began to smirk. "You bastards seriously believe you can beat me, in your motherfucking dreams!" His aura began to rotate around him, a fierce green color releasing as his bandages began to grow, rapidly twisting and twirling with power as they enclosed around his fists. "HA!" A crater would be made from his source of power, releasing as it did.
"What, he wasn't being serious!" The bird-like Hollow had screamed, as Kinniku leaped into the sky, twisting his body as he did a flying spinning twist kick. The absolute epitome of his fierce strength had began to crash into the Hollow's mask. Sending it downward, beginning to disappear, with him landing on the ground with nothing but his body. He would then move towards the muscular Hollow from a flying diagonal thrust kick, his foot going against the Hollow's gauntlet like fist and sending a shockwave throughout. However, Kinniku's foot didn't break, the Hollow's gauntlet did however, due to the increase in physical strength.
"NO!" The Muscular Hollow would say, as Kinniku would wave his finger back and forth, smirking at the creature who was now in pain. "You aren't as strong as you thought, right?!" The Hollow was angry, releasing a large scream and a "DAMN YOU!" in the same punching turn. Kinniku would leap, dodging the attack and with his fist infused with spiritual power, he would focus an extreme amount of power to break through the mask of the Hollow, who was sent flying by the force, going backwards into the ground, rolling as it began to disappear.
Kinniku was surprised at himself, but would not stop, for the moment. The woman was still in trouble. "Icy Queen, come on dammit you gotta attack the mask, the mask!" He would begin to run towards her sliding as he grunted. 'Shit, I can't do anything, that may hurt her pride unless she asks me, I saved her that last time because she almost got bashed... but now I can't.' He gritted his teeth. "Damn..."
Lilith look at her enemy through unfocused eyes. Her body was heavy, and the wind had an active role in moving her as she swayed on her feet. Drops of blood specked on the ground having rolled to her chin from her split lip. This hollow was more powerful than the last one, of that there was no question. She could still use her ability, but she knew she only had the power to use it once more, she had to make it count.
Her arms felt heavy also. She should not have summoned so much. Claws also might have proved enough. The loss of weight may of made the last attacks dodge-able. Going on the dulled sound of the hollows laugh her hearing was not at full capacity either. She saw the hollow reaching out to take her. She made to bat the hand away with a claw, but it moved from her range in time, causing her to stumble forward and around. Then snatching her from behind. She pushed invain against the fingers which gripped her in an iron hold. She turned her head to see the hollow opening it’s mouth once again.
With a momentarily smirk she once again began summoning the water around her, fusing them into the icy sphere. Over its rows and rows of teeth the hollow probably couldn’t see what she was doing. Then next thing it knew a spike was driven into the back of its throat, causing it to splutter in a bloody mess, letting Lilith go as its arms flailed wildly, sending her again into a wall.
A dull purple flash and a muffled boom again was heard. Icy thorns now protruding from the hollows upper body. She avoiding looking at the corpse of the hollow. Instead summoning her remaining power to pick herself up. Crack. A large fracture appeared on the ice on her left weapon. A moment later both shattered into a million pieces, landing on the floor around her. Now somewhat lighter she rubbed her head trying to settle her senses once again. Depsite the events she wanted to be in control around the boy. He was a spiritually powerful person, he had an amazing level of confidence and he seemingly sought her out. Who knew what his angle was.
She pressed a finger against her lip, immediately withdrawing it in a wince of pain. She glanced her now-red finger before sighing. She was now a complete mess. She begrudgingly look up at the boy, Acknowledging he had been waiting for her. She shuffled forward to speak with him, as fast as her pained body and legs would permit.
“So…” she began unsurely “Does this happen to you a lot or were you going to ask me the same thing?" she asked, shifting somewhat uncomfortably.
Post by Kinniku - Kyoumou Kobushi on Jul 2, 2011 2:46:41 GMT
It was amazing how much she had been hurt. Damn if this wasn't something that he wanted to be apart of, her pride was what he wanted to think about so thus he did nothing but stood there, sweating. "Come on, Icy, you can make this bastard die!" Kinniku clenched his fist inward more, pulling backwards and then watching as she got hurt even more from the ongoing attacks of the creature.
The Hollow had begun his onward striking motions and patterns sweeping through the attacks of the female. But then, she would be grasped by the hollow's mighty hands, taking advantage of her small lithe body. She was about to be eaten it seemed, as Kinniku jerked forward, beginning to move quickly towards her. "No, Ice Queen, come on!" Yelling loudly he would begin to dash. However, he stopped seeing how she did something that was almost rudimentary.
Utilizing her power to pike the insides of the Hollow's head, the woman had finally defeated such a creature. She was obviously exhausted after such a workout. He smiled and placed both arms on his hips, within a knuckle press. "Well, well, seems like someone knows how to fight against that bastard, eh?" He chuckled lightly, as she began to move towards him more and more. "It happens to move everyd-" He stopped talking seeing she was hurt, he would place her hands on her sides, and look at her.
"Wow, seems like your bodies got a lot of cracks..." Energizing his arm to display the same bandages that had been displayed before, he nodded towards her. "Here, these bandages will help, they have the ability to heal the body faster than normal over a set period." He would say, the bandages beginning to spread over her, going towards any wounds or broken places, they would cover them in dense wraps.
"You gotta be more careful lady, it's dangerous out here, you could of been killed if ya wouldn't of had that trump card." He said smiling.
Lilith struggled to maintain her composure as the boy approached her and began speaking to her once again. She felt as though she was tired, struggling to maintain consciousness. Perhaps that last knock had given her a concussion? She mentally slapped herself, and poured her focus on the boy. She was still uncertain of how to respond to his somewhat vulgar marks of the hollows. The more he did it the more she began to wonder about the name he had given them before.
‘Demons’ It wasn’t at all possible he had been brain washed into thinking that by some cult was it?
No, probably not. That sort of thing was rare among normal people, it was probably much more so on spiritually powerful people.
But if it was it might be something to be concerned with. Religious types could be unpredictable, at least that’s what her knowledge attained from movies and books had taught her.
He commented on her body, and she flushed. She was a complete mess, was beaten up, and had a 15 year old looking at her body in detail. Today was just not her day it seemed. He began talking about healing her when her mind finally exhausted its remaining power. The world began to fade from view, the sounds was getting turned down, and her pain was easing at an abnormal rate. Her body began to topple over with its driver now away from the wheel.

Because of what had transpired, it would seem that the female was about to fail herself with the exhaustion of her body. She seemed to be less able to stand than before with the constant of tossing and turning. The bandages wrapping around her body with the maneuver of each and everywhere for which the damage would persist. As they did their jobs, and he watched over the female for this moment. He paused, watching her as she would begin to fall.
"Woah!" Kinniku caught her body, much smaller than his was, moving his hands under her legs and back as he watched her for a moment. "Are you ok?" Twisting his head, looking back and forth with the usurp moving his hands yo clench her. He would begin to walk away, looking down to her body. 'She's probably just exhausted, nothing life threatening I can bet.' Starting to move into a sprint, slowly placing her on his back a she pushed her body into his, moving his hands underneath her thigh.
His body would shift, beginning to hear the sounds of the overwhelming scream through Hollow's. Coming and going within the confines of the city, concentrated powers of the creatures beginning to move towards the smell of his own strength. "Damn, looks like the frays coming..." He would have to miss his next class after all, this was a serious matter of life and death. He couldn't leave her alone to fend for herself.
Kinniku was almost caught by the Hollow, he would look to it, with gritted teeth. "Hey, dumbass get the hell out of my way!" Screaming as the creature began to push forward, swiping at him with a clawed hand. Kinniku would leap into the air, and with his fist going straight into the monsters face, Kinniku wouldn't stop his body from moving. Beginning to climb up a building from close by, the creature causing a large crater. Sirens would begin to light-up as Kinniku gasped. No one saw him within the instance he had done what needed to be done. But now he needed to find a way to get her to safety.
From the skies, two more would jump as they came after him, Kinniku had pushed his foot against the ground, leaping into the sky, he would begin spinning rapidly. "Tatsumaki Senpukyaku!" A rapid twisting kick, going across the sky with an extremely powerful twist, the strong amount of gust would send them flying away. Kinniku saw them falling by the way side. "Come on, come on!" Kinniku saw that his signal of power, would give off a huge scent towards the Hollow's.
He would begin to focus, his eyes would release a burst of reiatsu, as he grasped his fists tightly. His power would be converted into his legs, as he screamed heavily, the vastness of this power giving him a rocket start as he had finally disappeared from view, the Hollow's watching and stopping as he did, confused at what had just happened. The screen would fade as they began to look left and right.
Kinniku would finally be at a quiet place, underneath trees, pushing her against the bark as he gasped, looking at her with a silent gesture. He smiled and took his seat, watching over her for the moment. "..."
Twittering. That was the first thing Lilith could sense. Moments afterward she realised she had been asleep, jolting her body upright consequently hitting her head off of something thing. Wincing and rubbing her head, mumuring something about ‘stupid’ she groggily took a note of her surroundings. Those were definitely birds singing, as she wearily looked around she seemed to find herself by a small group of trees, possibly in a park. With some effort she turned to look behind her, finding a tree. She mentally cursed it for her new bruise on her skull. As she focused on her head she suddenly became aware exactly how uncomfortable she was. Her lip felt swollen and her body ached. She slowly and gently touched her lip. It felt like it met her hand half way. Yes, it was swollen, and by the sting likely cut too.
It was then she recalled. The fight. The hollows. The boy. She looked about for him, quickly finding him just looking at her. She paused, not exactly used to someone just staring at her. It was then it occurred to her. ‘Why didn’t he take me to a hospital?’ She eyed the boy cautiously. He didn’t seem to be doing anything else out of place, plus she did feel better than before. But still, the child was an enigma to her. She could no longer really relate to people his age, plus she could not know the circumstances of his life, how and why he acted the way he did. It was still best to play it safe.
“So if I might ashk, ish there any reason you bought here ash opposed to a hospital or clinic?” She asked, trying as best as she could to both sound relaxed and casual, as well as talk through her lisp her new lip gave her. She was successful on the former, less so on the latter of the two.
All the while it could not escape her notice he had made sure they were alone. She felt curious to ask about it, but being too direct on such an issue may for his hand if his intentions were anything less they admirable.

Taking his time as he placed her down, taking his time, moving his arms forward as he laughed. "You sure are something sweetheart, look at the mess you got me in..." She was still unconscious during this time, he took his time to lay against the tree, scratching his head slowly. He took his time, making his hands move forward sliding against the ground with a large smirk. "Oh well, not like I'm not used to it by now..."
It was a bit into twenty minutes, his eyes began to flutter a bit, bored out of his wits. This girl would sleep all day if she had the chance. However, he didn't really complain about it from that time. Overzealous and taking much of the strife he had to go through. She had finally awoken, taking her eyes to him, he watched her for but a moment. It didn't seem she was really happy about the placement of her body.
"Wow, aren't you a klutz." He laughed at her banging her head twice against the branch, but as she watched him now. She would ask why she wasn't within the hospital or the clinic. "Ah, so you would be able to explain what happened to your body, and why you almost died?" He shuffled his head, and took his time. "What you really don't want to do is have the suspicions of the people... besides, my bandages are able to heal you, just keep them on for a while."
His head would move downward, but then arise. "Look, you maybe don't know this..." He would begin to walk forward. "You gotta be more careful on those creatures, you could of died easily..." He shook his head for a moment, and took his time to watch her. "I know we just met and stuff, and I know I don't look like much, but it doesn't look like you're that strong with your abilities." Kinniku would sigh, blushing as he looked down.
"S-so can I train ya?" He would say in a kind of nervous step into her direction of questioning.
Lilith studied the boy as best she could under her condition without being obvious. Perhaps it was the bruise on her head but she began to wonder if he really was just a kid. Not some menace to her. After all he had done nothing to warrant such suspicions. He seemed nice, if a little friendly to violence. That was something she planned to ask him about, why he called it a demon. Had it been some figure of speech she was not familiar with, or had he simply been taught that?
She rubbed her head sheepishly with a faint smile when he called her a klutz. It was somewhat rude to talk to someone so unknown with such familiarity but she appreciated the humour, anything to lighten the load of pain, and slight guilt. As he continued she considered the prospect for a moment. Sure on a one-off occasion it could be explained as a freak accident, attacked by a wild animal or something. It would be if she began to frequent the hospital sporting such injuries that it would become unexplainable. She was about to comments that he could have when he asked her another question.
This one startled her somewhat. ‘train me?’ she thought confused by the proposition. At first she felt a pinch of anger at the idea she might help him kill hollows. Immediately after her brains thought process kicked in and she realised it would be for her own protection. But she had these powers for weeks already, and the first time anything had occurred, it was seemingly down to him. Perhaps that was a coincidence, in which case she had been extremely lucky. So she decided to break the silence with a question of her own
“Do you think that’s really necessary? I’m really not the type to go looking for fights” she asked, not sitting up from her position, looking up at him with a faint confusion on her face, her head slightly tilted in puzzlement.

Seemingly, he needed something a little more. She seemed to be on edge about him, taking things in a literal sense. He couldn't blame her, him being a person that just shot out, having the power to fight creatures that she couldn't. He wouldn't allow himself to lose whatever trust she had of him. She just needed the time to think, and was easily someone to allow that to happen.
He was excited, he was very open to this excitement that someone outside his family that was human had the power to fight. He had pumped his fist in the air, as he began to use a maneuvering of his fists and kicks into the air, shadow-boxing with a smile. She needed this time to be on her own in such a big situation. It could even be life-changing, this was a big decision.
She would then look at his eyes, he would gaze at hers with a confused look. "Oh, that?" Kinniku would say, tapping his forehead as he made his way moving back and forth. "Consider this, you are a spiritually powerful individual now... your spiritual power is great enough to be sensed by demons, and that entices them to come after the most powerful signal they sense in the vicinity... you." He pushed both his hands into his hips.
"It's your choice, I understand if you wouldn't want to be trained by me or anything, I am just another guy you met." He breathed outward, and crossed his arms. "But, your powers need to be trained, whether by yourself or someone else you can find, because the demons will come after you, whether you want them to or not." He frowned, taking his fist towards a tree. "They lock-on to you like you're there next meal, always being hungry, I've defeated a lot of them, since I was just a kid of twelve or something..."
Kinniku would sit in an Indian style, taking his eyes to the ground, he would begin to talk slowly. "My clan, is a clan that fights demons... for centuries, we have fought against the threat against ghosts and people combined. They are creatures that have no true sense in the word restraint, and you can't reason with them. They take what they want, and they do it with no moral vintage." He laid against the ground watching the sky. "They don't care if you're a good person or a bad person, a meals a meal." He spread his legs, and closed his eyes for a moment.
He would sit back up, and watch her once again. "Look, you don't have to make a decision now, all you gotta do is think on it and get back to me," He said starting to walk towards the trees. "Just make your decision then, come back to me, anywhere you sense a Hollow attack or track me by my signature energy, I'm usually one of the stronger signatures around here, I'm also in Karakura High..." He waved the back of his hand moving forward. 'Until then, I need to make sure she's as safe as she needs to be... I don't want her to get hurt, but I'm willing to take the risk.' He said to himself.
