Hello everyone! It`s time for some magic training between Ragna and Ken. I always happy to see how people seem to like my story and I`ll always try to do my best work for you.

Now let`s get to it!

The party was over for some time now and the morning was coming. Ragna was slowly waking up and as he did, his eyes stopped on a sleeping Tsubaki. She was laying peacefully on her bed as The Grim Reaper was watching over her (that doesn`t seem quite right for the name tho). As he raised from the chair he was sleeping in to stretch, he heard the red head waking up. ''Morning''

Tsubaki was still affected by her evening and wasn`t to sure of who said that. She took her time to sit on her bed, rub her eyes and look around to see Ragna, standing beside her bed. ''Ragna? What are you doing here?.''

''Was making sure you were ok after last night. So, how you feel?'' he asked.

She rubed her head as she could feel a slight pain from it ''Well my head hurt a little...I shouldn`t have eaten all those chocolate.''

Ragna chuckled ''Told you there was alcohol in that.''

''But they were so delicious. Actually, I think that's the first time I turned drunk.'' she replied while rubbing her forehead.

Ragna chuckled again ''Well don't worry about it, you weren't the only one wasted last night.''

''I think you are right. If I remember well, Noel was lying on a table half asleep with a bottle in her hand. I should have watched Makoto more, I'm sure she did some kind of drinking contest to make Noel like this.'' Tsubaki thought out loud.

''Don't worry about it. Celica took care of Noel and she was fine. But I'm surprised you guessed that the squirrel started a driking contest.'' The Reaper said.

The redhead giggled ''When you take the time to know her, you discover that she is a very good friend, but her tendency to always try to have fun can bring her some trouble.'' At this she started to stretch. ''You know who participated?''

Ragna tried to remember ''Well, if I remember Noel was there with the squirrel, butt floss and Ken.''

''Wait.'' Tsubaki exclaimed ''Colonel Mustsuki wasn't participaiting?'' she almost seemed shocked.

Ragna chuckled ''Nah, that Hibiki dude was forbidding him to get close to anything related to alcohol. It's like he was being tortured.''

''I see. So do you know how it ended?'' she asked.

''Not really.'' he answered simply ''Last time I checked, Noel was out and Ken was busy trying all the different kind of alcohol he could find while the two other girls were arguing over something.''

The former Wing of Justice seemed more calm ''At least she didn't caused chaos like last time.''

''Was that bad?'' the Reaper inquire.

The redhead giggled ''You have no idea.''

As she was getting up, Ragna started to walk toward the door ''Well, I think i'll go now, I got to meet Ken for a training session. See ya.'' They waved each other goodbye and the Reaper went to the training room Hibiki had reserved them.

In another room, Ken was slowly waking up, but he was still a little drowsy from last night drinking session. Well it was totally worth it, he was able to try 13 different kind of drink and he was finally able to try the famous Red Dragon Sake and it was damn good. Even if his thought and senses were still weak, he was still able to enjoy the fluffiness of his bed sheets and the warm and soft wind blowing on him...wait a moment...there was no windows in his room and the feeling...he could swear he already felt this kind of sheets before... As he slowly opened his eyes, he could saw a fluffy tail covering him like a blanket...him? Not only him, but there was some one else beside him. 'Not again' He thought as he reluctantly turned his head to confirm that Makoto was there, but he saw Bullet. Yes, the white haired mercenary was laying beside him in bed sleeping peacefully also covered by the tail. He created a new kind of red as he realized the situation he was in. He quickly looked at him to see that, thanks to god, he was still fully dressed and so were the other two. ''That's a relief.'' he said to himself, but loudly enough that a certain beastkin woke up.

''Uh...you awake?'' she asked still half asleep. He wasn't able to answered because of how flustered he was. She sat on the bed, taking back her tail in the process ''Hope you slept well, cuz i sure did.'' she said as she laid her head on his chest ''You're confy too you know.''

Nothing that was happening right now was helping him to calm down. He was trying to remember as hard as he could how the hell he ended up in this situation. He remembered his talk with Ragna, the food he took and Makoto starting a little drinking game. Everyone had a bottle of sake and the first to finish it had won. Noel, Bullet and 5 ninjas participated and so the game started. Makoto, Bullet and Ken drank directly from the bottle, ignoring the glasses that was beside it and as she saw that, Noel tried to imitate them, bad idea as she wasn't able to handle her drink and ended up drunk before she could even reach the half of the bottle. Soon after, the five ninjas were also eliminated as they fell face first on the table, on the ground or simply jumped from their chair to reach the bathroom. Ken was the first to finish, but he was almost immediately followed by Bullet and soon after Makoto. After he asked what he had won to the two other participants left, he started to try the other liquor around the table without even waiting for the answer. After that, the last thing he remembered was to be pulled by two person.

Makoto giggled as she saw his confused and flustered reaction ''What, you don't remember? It was the price we agreed to give you even tho I would have preferred to have you for myself.''

''I heard that'' said a certain mercenary that was slowly turning around to face the two ''Like I would make it that easy for you.'' As she said that, she grabbed Ken's arm and pressed herself against him.

As Ken's face was still creating another variation of red, he was trying to think of a way to get out of this situation since he felt that anymore of that would kill him. His mind was racing like crazy and then he remembered ''Girls, could you please let me go, I need to go to an important training session with Ragna.''

Both girl looked at him a little disappointed ''You can't stay a little longer?'' asked the beastkin.

''Sorry.'' Ken answered as he hoped that for one time, his bad luck would go see someone else.

''If it's for important training then...'' Bullet said and she let go of his arm and laid on her side of the bed. ''After all, we'll still see each other later.''

Seeing that the mercenary let go, Makoto did the same with a little disappointment. Ken quickly got up from the bed and went for the door, thanking heaven that it worked. ''See ya later.'' He said as he go out of the room.

Later in the training room, Ken and Ragna were sitting face to face meditating, or at least trying to meditate since Ragna seemed really pissed and agitated. After a moment, a spark of black energy appeared on the Reaper's body ''Damn it!'' he yelled.

''Calm down, getting worked up won't help in this situation.'' Ken told him as he opened his eyes.

''We've been at this for hours and i still can't make the thing! Of course I pissed!.'' The angry Reaper yelled.

Ken chuckled ''What you thought that just because you wanted to produce mana it would appear like magic?''

Ragna stopped for a moment ''Uh...Ok this one wasn't bad.''

As the Reaper calmed down a little, ken thought about the situation ''Maybe we started at the wrong end. I thought that getting you to produce mana would help you learn magic, but I think we'll turn this around.''

''What you mean?'' inquired Ragna.

''Get up.'' Ken said as he also stood up. ''We'll focus on making you summon magic.''

Ragna was confused ''How can I cast a spell without mana?''

''Nah you got mana inside you I'm sure of it. You're just not able to control it yet.'' Ken told him ''So in order to bring it out, I'll make you summon your magic nature.''

''Magic nature?'' asked the Reaper.

''It's the magic you're suppose to have the most affinity with. Like me and lightning.'' answered Ken.

Ragna seemed to understand ''Ok so how do we do this?''

Ken took a few steps back ''First you have to close your eyes and focus on yourself. Once that's done, try to pinpoint the first thing you can feel about you and get a grip of it as hard as you can.''

Ragna did as he was told and focused. At first he didn't felt anything, but after a moment, he could see something, he could see a small light inside of him and as he reached to grab it, he could feel it, his burning desire and anger. The Ragging inferno of his life and emotion completely surrounded him and as he opened his eyes, he realise that there actually was fire around him. Although he could feel the heat from it, it wasn't burning him and it was even feeling comfortable. He was about to look at ken to talk to him, but he didn't saw him ''Ken? You there?''

''Over here.'' The Reaper looked and saw that the man was actually laying on the ground with some minor burns ''Damn, you sure made it flashy.''

As Ragna managed to suppress his fire he went to check on the man ''Hey, are You alright?''

Ken got up as he dusted off ''Yeah, was mostly surprised by the blast. Should have been more careful but hey congrats for that.''

Ragna scratched the back of his head ''Thanks, can't believed it worked so well.''

''Well for people like us who have strong emotional side, it's sometime easier to release our magic by this side.'' Ken explained.

''I see.'' said Ragna ''So what's next?''

''Now we get a little sparing session.'' Ken answered as he went to the other side of the room.

Ragna grinned ''Good for me, but even if it's just training I won't go easy on you.''

Ken grinned in return ''Wouldn't have it another way, but just one thing, try to use your magic in this fight as much as you can.''

''No problem.'' The Reaper said as he readied Blood-Scythe.

Both fighter looked at each other in the eyes and as if they had agreed, they both dashed at the same time toward the other. Ragna was throwing a downward slash and it was met by a fist. The Reaper was surprised that it didn't just cut right trough it, but then he saw that the fist was clad in a protective barrier made of black energy and lightning. Ken managed to push the sword away and gave the Reaper a good kick to the side that send him away. Ragna managed to land on his feet and was quick to counter-attack with his trademark ''Death Spike'' but this time, the attack was covered in flame. Ken tried to counter with his ''Cerberus'' but Ragna's attack was stronger and blasted through the three heads before hitting the man that was now trying to protect himself with his arms.

After he recovered fom the blast, Ken looked at the Reaper with a smile ''Well that's some power you got there.''

''Can say the same about you. Only got a lucky kick so that's not much.'' said a grinning Reaper

The smile on Ken's face became a little darker ''Now you're asking for it.''

Black energy and lightning burst form Ken as he dashed toward Ragna. The Reaper readied his sword to intercept as the energy around Ken formed a large black wing. As he launched his attack, he yelled ''Black Drake'' and the blade and the wing crashed into one an other. Ragna was the one to be pushed back by the hit and Ken rushed him once again with a lightning fast roundhouse kick to the face.

As the Reaper went back into his stance he said ''Ok never mind what I said.''

''Ready for more?'' asked Ken willing to keep going.

''Keep it coming!'' shouted the Reaper as the two began to exchange blows for blow, some were regular, other enhanced by their BlazBlue, other by their magic and some time by both. Their fight went one for several minutes before they were at a stand still once again.

As Ragna was about to charge again, Ken stopped him ''Hey Ragna, let's try something else, what do you say?''

The Reaper stopped ''Sure what is it?''

''Lightning Emperor''as he said those words the lightning around Ken's body intensified and Ragna could feel the new strength that his friend was emitting. ''I call that 'Full Body Magic'. To keep it simple, you infuse your body with your magic and you keep it there. It's like an overdrive.''

Understanding where Ken was going, Ragna started to focus his magic on his body, at first he only felt his regular flame but as he focused more and more he finally felt something really close to his overdrive ''Fire Rampage'' Ragna's body was emitting intense heat as it was covered in fire and both man could easily feel the new intensity of the power.

''Damn you make it look easy.'' Ken said with a small chuckle.

''Got a good teacher, he keep it simple and easy to understand.'' Ragna said also chuckling slightly.

Ken went back in position ''Now that you can do that, what about we test that new strength to its fullest?''

Ragna readied himself ''Bring it on.''

Both man powered up to the max as their power was making the whole room shaking. Both their right fist became the focus of all their power and once their attacks were ready, they dashed yelling ''Hell Fang'' ''Dark Rampage''. Their fists were about to connect as a loud sound was eared in the place and both fighter released their power and fell on their knees while holding their stomach.

''Can't believe this is happening right now.'' Said an half ashamed half angry Reaper.

''Should have seen it coming. We didn't eat since yesterday and we've been training for hours.'' said Ken with the same expression as Ragna.

''I feel like Tao right now.'' said Ragna

''Same here. I think we'll stop here. You've learn around everything I could teach you anyway. Let's get something to eat.'' Ken proposed.

''Yeah good idea.'' Ragna said as they got up. Both men walked out of the room exhausted, but happy with their session ''We should do this again from time to time.''

''Sure, just call me when you want me to kick your ass.'' said Ken with a smirk.

''In your dream.'' replied Ragna with a small smile as they went to the dining room.
