Same Ground Ch. 4: Sparing and Swear Words Part 1 (Unedited version)
ooooooooooooooooooooooooo
(Draikiel's pov) The next day at the Onsen, I again had to do 10,000 more push-ups and sit-ups that Ianna told me to do. Not only that, she took away my sword so I had to do it with my eyes closed. "Bummer," I said while I was doing the last of my sit-ups. I then heard the sound of footsteps. "Great, He's going to gloat in front of me…" the door opened and Hao came in. He was going to let me know he was in (since he knows he can't open his eyes) but I simply said "I know you're in here Hao. If you're only here to gloat and or kill me, get out or Ianna will do something worse than death to you if she finds you here." This surprised him, I could feel it. "Chill, Draikus, I just need to ask you something- alone." He said calmly.
(Normal pov) This time Hao surprised Draikiel. "Okay. Come on then. I know a place where we'll not be disturbed." He then stopped doing the sit-ups; he was done anyway. He, using the rest of his senses, touched the wall. A door appeared and he opened it. He motioned Hao to follow him. When they entered Draikiel still walked up ahead. When they stopped at a Sakura tree, Draikiel stopped and sat under the tree. "Well, you're here, so ask away." He said. "Well, I was just wondering," He said also sitting down under the tree. "Why do you always close your eyes when you don't have the cloak on?" "Well as you know, the sword that I use, which is called the Sword of Unity, has the ability to transform into anything I want. It not only has the power to transform into anything, it also has the power to block other special powers." Draikiel explained. Hao shook his head. "But that doesn't answer my question." "Hao, I have special abilities. When I look into someone's eyes, they'll be under my control. That's why Yoh was acting like that before you hit him." he said. "…So why did you put him under your control?" Hao asked. "I just wanted to see if he could fend it off. He kind of resisted it, but only for a little while." Draikiel replied standing up. "We have to go now; Ianna might think I'm slacking…" He said sweatdropping.
When they came back, an angry Ianna was waiting for them. "Where were you? You just wasted fifteen minutes of my time and Draikiel's time." She said. "Oh, that's right. I was supposed to spar with her after training. Let's start then." Draikiel said smiling. She nodded her head and headed outside. Draikiel followed her and got ready. He was about to ask Ianna for his sword but she quickly interrupted him. "Why don't you use that intelligence of yours and use your bandanna, Hm?" she said coldly, putting her bandanna aside. Putting his bandanna over his eyes, he said sarcastically, "That really killed me." She smirked as the rest of the gang (including Anna) came out and watched. "Oh, please, you're already dead." She said as she got into fighting stance. Draikiel got ready too. Then Morty came out in a referee costume and walked in front of Draikiel and Ianna. "Okay, the first one to hit the ground loses and to win you need to get a two out of three as the score. First spar is martial arts followed by weaponry on the second spar. If needed, the third one is a team spar using integration, oversoul and or double medium. If there is a third spar, please use your own weapons. No killing, please and any perverting, killing and or swearing matters will be forced to leave. Anyone who disagrees will also be forced to leave." Morty said. The gang nodded, all except for Anna. "Who the hell died and made you Buddha, Shorty?" Anna yelled standing up. "Relax, sister, I paid the Shorty to do the work." Ianna said. Anna gave her a stern look but agreed to the rules and sat down. Morty then stepped back a bit and got a red flag (out of nowhere) and put it in front of the challengers. "If the challengers have any last words before the fight, please say them now," Morty said. "HEY MORTY YOUR ASS LOOKS FAT!" Yoh yelled. Morty stomped to Yoh and slapped him so hard he went around the world and hit the Onsen with a bang, leaving a hole which looked like Yoh. "JACKASS! I SAID THE CHALLENGERS, NOT THE AUDIENCE!" Morty yelled. He turned to face them again. "So, any last words, challengers?" Morty asked. "Yeah, tell my sister's fiancée not to do that again or he'll have to answer to me," Ianna said. "And believe me, no one wants that," Draikiel added. "Riight… 3, 2, 1, Fight!" Morty said quickly getting out of the way. Ianna made the first move and quickly high jump-kicked Draikiel. He quickly parried that and did a boomerang kick (if you know Tekken 3 (which I know is really old), this is King's Move, the Deadly Boomerang). Ianna back flipped to dodge the move and scissor-kicked him right on the spot. But he quickly dodged that. They continued fighting.
Meanwhile the gang was having second thoughts about the two. "Wow, those guys are evenly matched. They didn't even fall down on the ground." Yoh said as the gang nodded in agreement. Then Ianna took Draikiel's hand and threw him over her. Draikiel quickly balanced and was about to land on the ground but Ianna slammed him on the ground. The gang winced in pain as if feeling Draikiel's pain. Morty blew a whistle and held a silver flag up. "First point goes to Ianna Kyoyama! The next spar will start in a few seconds so hurry up and choose your weapons!" Morty announced. "Draikiel, you mind if I use your sword?" Ianna asked. "No, I'll just use a bo…" Draikiel muttered as he got a metal bo from the table nearest to him. Morty blew the whistle soon after. "The second spar will start. You may begin whenever you like." Morty announced. Suddenly…
