A Beowolf runs towards the opponent directly in front of it on all fours. It begins to lift up a claw, then gives a side slash towards the opponent. It appears to hit, but all the Beowolf was able to hit was the shadow of the opponent, and left a large claw mark onto the tree. The Beowolf was beginning to get irritated. Every time it slashed the enemy, it saw a clear hit, but all it would hit is a tree, or miss completely, with the enemy reappearing behind it.
One again, the Beowolf turned and stood on it's hind legs. A howl was heard through out the forest. It charges once more after getting on all fours, and towards the young man in the black jacket. The Beowolf jumps off the ground, slashing at him with all four claws. The enemy seemed to turn entirely black, the aura radiating off of him. The slashed sent a ripple through the black aura. Before the Beowolf was able to comprehend that the enemy had evaded it once more, it was hit with a dozen slashes, and hit a tree, slain.
"I'm sorry about that." Adeth sheathed the nodachi and walked over to the Beowolf. He placed his hand on it's head. "But this was necessary. Your brethren thank you."
A girl would drop down from the trees, slightly shorter than Adeth. She wore samurai-looking armor, and had long blonde hair, tied back in a ponytail. "Adeth, you seem to have everything under control." Nasam looked into his eyes as he smiled. "And those beautiful silver eyes are still there as well." She then looked behind him. "I see overkill is still you."
Adeth turned to look behind him to look at what she meant. He saw many of the trees were sliced down and several of them were knocked over and on the ground now. There were also branches everywhere. It was a major difference than before he had attacked. The trees were nice and beautiful, and it would seem like a great place to relax and train. Now there was this mess.
He then turned to the Beowolf he slayed. It had slashes in many places, all a result of himself and his Semblance. He pondered the strength of the Semblance if the tiredness that came was it was removed. He could be unstoppable. But, alas, he had that weakness. He was panting heavily. The slashes took a lot out of him. "Oh, you know me well," Adeth said. "Now, come, we must move quickly."
Adeth would lead Nasam as he moved forward. The moved aside some of the long wooden branches that were close to the ground, letting him pass. Nasam ducked as the branch as it swooped over her head. "You shouldn't use your Semblance so much," Nasam commented. "You'll tire more quickly. I can hear you panting."
"He deserved a good death," Adeth said, unemotionally. "Just as all his brethren do."
"But-"
Adeth turned and pointing the tip of the nodachi at Nasam's neck. He saw her bite her tongue and stop before she said more. Without another word, the weapon was sheathed and the two continued.
Adeth went through the forest with Nasam, and then looked up into the sky. He saw the beautiful sight of the might blue sky, a single cloud soaring overhead. A single bright green leaf would fall from a tree, landing onto the lush green grass, right where Adeth would step and squish it.
He went over what he would do, and how he would do it, along with who he was meeting. It was two men, Kauve and Shung.
Kauve was an intelligent young man, and very dignified. Adeth recalled how he always wore something proper, such as a suit, along with his glasses. He always looked calm and composed, but Adeth knew how he was like. He would be a monster in the battlefield.
Then there was Shung. He always wore things that really showed off his muscles. Usually it was beachwear, such as a muscle shirt along with some shorts. Adeth knew this was because of his Semblance, though.
Adeth and Nasam eventually got to where they were supposed to. Kauve sat on a stone, his back facing Shung's, wearing his usual suit to look professional, while Shung wore his beachwear, looking the complete opposite of Kauve.
"Finally!" Shung stood and went over to Adeth and Nasam. "Kauve was starting to bore me. He kept going on and on about politics! Man, was he annoying. Have you ever spent-" Kauve lightly touched Shung's shoulder, and he dropped down, struggling to stand. "Damn it! I hate it when you do that."
Kauve adjusted his glasses. "I'll let you up when you apologize."
"For what?"
"Calling me boring and making me waste stamina on doing this," Kauve answered. "Idiot."
"Kauve." Adeth sounded strong and firm. He looked into Kauve's purple eyes, and Kauve looked back at his silver ones.
That was enough of a signal. Kauve would nod in obedience, then kneel down, next to Shung. He lightly tapped his shoulder once more, and Shung got up and dusted himself off. "You're lucky I don't squash you," Shung warned.
Kauve ignore him. "So, who do we have here, Adeth?"
Adeth would close his eyes and begin to remember. He then opened slowly when he had everything ready. "Four people met so far. First, a boy named Mavi, he has a sword that can turn into a shield. Well enough of a threat. Next, a female, Nogi, tonfa into a staff, big threat. Finally, Sien Gurando. Major threat. A recognized prodigy."
The three others seemed to waited. Nothing came. "Who's the last person?" Shung asked. "You said there was four. You listed three." Shung could have sworn he then heard Kauve silently comment something like, 'Oh, it can count.'
"The final one is a young man named Conaire. Not a threat." Adeth would check on all three, seeing if they all got it. They nodded in response. "Good. Move out."
Adeth and the three others would begin to move forward. For a while, it stayed like that. Then Kauve came up to Adeth. "Boss, when do you plan to start?" He asked.
Adeth gave him a small grin. "Soon enough, Kauve. Patients is what is needed. We wait, see if what I reported is confirmed, then initiate step one." Adeth signaled for him to go back.
Kauve nodded and did as told. And so, the four people in this clan would continue through the forest, Adeth leading, and slicing any grim, leaving all unharmed.
