Gundam Wing: The Five Saviors
Chapter Two: Nataku

The onyx-eyed priest glared down at the man before him. The priest wore a black sorcerer's cloak over his normal fighting clothes. He was the head of the Altron temple, a home for fighters and mages in the Shenlong kingdom. People from far and near would come just to face the master MageKnight in battle for exceptance into the temple.

The man before the priest bowed before him. "Please, master Wufei, MageKnight Nataku, accept my humble challenge to you for admittance into your temple."

The Knight Wufei stood from the throne he was sitting on. "You request, noble warrior Dermail, is accepted. You do know that the penalty for losing against me is death, correct?"

His gray-haired opponent nodded.

"The battle will commence immediately. Follow me." Wufei turned away from the man and headed down a side hallway. Somewhat reluctantly, the other man followed. No one knew this Mage's style of combat, for whoever he beat was killed, and he was undefeated.

The hallway led to a small chamber, with a circle drawn out with chalk on a soft floor. Around the circle stood many other priests, their faces hidden in brown cloaks. Behind them was another circle, this one of blazing torches which cast shadows around the room.

Wufei walked into the center and removed his cloak, tossing it aside. He wore black pants with a black shirt tucked into it, a three-headed dragon emblazoned in gold on the shirt's back. He also wore elbow-length black gloves. Rumors said that he had no true hands, but dragon claws.

Dermail stretched, hopping around a bit to stretch his legs. His opponent did nothing to prepare, he just turned and waited. Seeing no better chance to attack, Dermail leapt forward.

He led his assault with a fast and hard karate chop. This was always his first move, and it's speed and strength always surprised his opponents. But this attack didn't surprise Nataku at all.

Right before the attack would hit, Wufei's eyes flared with a red light and he let out a ground-shaking, inhuman roar. He ducked the attack, and brought up hi gloved arm, catching Dermail in the stomach and lifting him a bit off of the ground.

Dermail reeled backward, in pain. He didn't even see the spinning kick until he was knocked twice by his opponent's feet. The attack was immediately followed by many strikes to his injured stomach by the gloved fists and elbows of Nataku.

Dermail hit the ground hard and gasped for breath as a solid blow connected to his stomach. He sucked in painful breaths as Wufei turned and started to walk away, pulling a glove off of one of his arms.

"You are defeated. Now face the penalty."

Dermail climbed to his feet, scowling, raising a handful of sand. "I will not ... be defeated...that easily...."

Dermail leapt forward and Wufei spun around.

The last thing that Dermail would ever see would be a striking Serpent.

"That was an impressive battle, Nataku, your skills are improving."

Wufei looked up at the tall bald man who served as his master as he gloved his hand again. "I thank you, Master O."

The man was solemn faced as usual. "It is time, Nataku, for you to venture out and strike at the hordes of evil. They are about to strike."

Wufei nodded."I will leave immediately, master."

"One more thing, young one."

The fighter looked up.

"You will encounter four other warriors, each as strong as you are. They will help you in your quest."

Wufei snorted. "I do not need help from anyone. I will accomplish my mission by myself." With that, he turned away and headed to gather his things.

Master O shook his head."Your confidence will be your downfall, Nataku..."
