Chapter 1: Appearance of the Stray Panther
Soaring through the air, Storm Riders fly to become better than others. Claiming territory and keeping it. Some with those territories keep a bad reputation to keep others away. In a run down alley, there is a group of Storm Riders beating a girl for trespassing on their territory. One rider had dark, spiky hair with a rough boy attitude. He belonged to the rough boy group called "Rafu".
"Don't you know whose territory you are in?" yelled the leader, Buru.
"I'm sorry! Please do not harm me!" cried the trespasser.
"You know what we do to kinds like you." Buru squeezed his hand into a fist as the trespasser closed his eyes, but left one barely open to see what was about to happen. A second before the strike, another Storm Rider, appeared and kicked Buru 3 feet away.
"You got some nerve getting ready to strike a person who is unarmed." said the character that just arrived.
Getting up, Buru replied, "You got some nerve to kick me while my guard was down! Don't you know who I am?!"
"Unfortunately, no."
"Grr… I am Buru! Leader of the Rafu!"
"Well, it is a pleasure to meet some deplorable degenerate like you."
"What did you say, punk?"
"So, you're a bully and deaf. Some leader"
"You are just waiting for a fight are you?"
"Hmph, why not?"
"F-Class, Dash! Right here and now!"
"Alright, I win, you guys leave this place."
"And if we win, we get to beat the snot out of you!"
"Seems fair enough. Let's go!"
As they prepared for the race, the kid trespasser watched intriguingly. The goal was at the other side of the territory, the north side. It was an one on one dash to the goal.
"Ready?" a voice of a Rafu member said, "GO!"
They raced on the streets quickly. As they reached half way, Buru realized that the newcomer was keeping up. Then he starts going faster. With the desire to win and keep the reputation up, he began to strike him. Buru leaps into the air. He dived straight at the leading component with a high jump kick. Suddenly, the component leaped to the side and landed on a side of a building. He hurried and jumped of the building, making a good time to counter.
"So, you want to play it like that? Alrighty then!"
Buru shook in fear as he was still in the air after he missed.
"Tsume Sutoraiki! (Claw Strike)" the component dove down and started spinning, with arms stretched out. He caught up with the falling Buru and stroked him with his claws like a spinning tornado. Buru shrieks as he fell to the ground and was knocked unconscious from the height and damage. As for being unable to move on, Rafu has lost.
Cheering, the trespasser had ran up to the winner and thanked him for helping him. "Thank you for helping me out!"
"No problem, I just don't like how Air Treks are used these days."
"I know what you mean. I wish they could just ride the skies freely without being troubled by someone's territory or something…"
"You use them to?"
"Yes, but not much, I am not real good at is. You looked pretty awesome back there!"
Soon, the Rafu members helped their leader, as he regains conscious, he asked, "Grr… I will get you back… Rafu will own this city! But before I we go as agreed, what is your name, kid?"
The winner grinned as he was asked for his name. "My name, is Akiuro Kunisaki, age 15."
Buru grinned. "Akiuro Kunisaki huh? I will add that name to my black list."
The Rafu soon vanished as night came.
"Oh no! I'm late!"
"For what?"
"I have to meet my father! I was suppose to meet with him…" he looks at his watch. "in 5 minutes! I'll never make it to city hall by then!"
"I can take you there. It could shorten the time."
"You sure?"
"Yea, I have time. Let's just say…I'm stray."
"My name is Kanshi Momohashi, age 14 by the way."
Kanshii held to to Akiuro's hand and they sped to the city hall.
