Kyle and the others continued to walk to the circuit they headed down an alleyway only to find a boy who looked about yoh's age blocking the way.
"Hello there" the boy said.
"Who are you?" Kyle asked.
"My names dash and I'm here to challenge you to a fight"
"I'm guessing you want to knock out your competition before the tournament," Anna said.
"Sure am so who wants to fight me" dash asked.
"Do you think we have time to play your little game" Kyle said.
Yoh stepped forward.
"It's ok Kyle I'll fight him," he said.
"You sure" Kyle asked.
Yoh nodded and walked towards dash.
"You ready dash" Yoh asked.
"Lets go" dash replied.
The two boys started to fight and everyone was surprised how good dash was. But Yoh could still handle him ok. Yoh punched dash in the face dash came in with a roundhouse kick but he missed. Kyle watched as the two boys fought and Kyle knew he had seen dash's moves before. Yoh sent dash crashing to the ground but dash wasn't done he jumped up and hit Yoh with a fly kick Yoh staged back as dash ran up to him. Dash tried to punch Yoh but Yoh grabbed his dash's arm and twisted it behind his back. Dash kicked Yoh in the shin and Yoh let go.
"This kids good" horo horo said.
"Yeah he sure is a strong fighter for someone of his age" Ryu added.
The two boys's attacked each other again and Yoh soon found an opening and once again sent dash to the ground. Dash once again ran at Yoh and it soon became obvious that Yoh had the upper hand. Yoh gave dash a punch in the stomach and dash fell to the ground holding his stomach.
"Need a hand dash"
Everyone turned to see a guy in his late teens. Kyle looked shocked.
"Wesley" he said.
"How's it going Kyle long time no see"
"Why are you here Wesley" Kyle demanded.
"For the tournament when we found out you would be here we thought it was time to get our revenge"
"What do you think your doing Wesley"
A girl who looked in her early twenty's appeared.
"Mariah" Wesley said.
Kyle remained silent.
"I didn't mean any harm sis," Wesley explained.
"I don't care I told you no fighting until the tournament starts" Mariah told him.
"Someone's in trouble"
Another guy who looked about Kyle's age appeared.
"Lee" Wesley said.
"I should have guessed you'd try to find him" lee said.
Lee turned to Kyle.
"Sorry about this Kyle we don't normally attack opponents before a tournament," he said.
"Really" Kyle replied.
"Especially amateurs like this" lee smiled.
"What did you say" ren shouted.
"Oh looks like one of you has a temper" lee said.
"That's enough lee now why don't you guys get out of here" Kyle demanded.
"Watch it Kyle you're not the leader of our gang anymore" Mariah told him.
"It's ok mariah we were going anyway"
Lee and the others turned to leave.
"Oh and Kyle"
Lee turned back to Kyle.
"If we meet in the tournament your going down"
Lee and the others left.
"What was that all about" manta asked.
"I'll explain latter," Kyle said.
Meanwhile in another part of town spike was heading to Dom's bar only to find the gang leader he threw though a window a few days ago and 10 of his mates waiting for him near the bar.
"You back for more" spike asked.
"I'm going to make you wish you never messed with me," the leader told him.
"We'll see about that" spike said.
"Well this doesn't look like a fair fight"
A guy appeared who looked about spikes age.
"Ricky" spike said.
"Spike" Ricky replied.
"Well I'll be dammed" spike said.
Spike and Ricky greeted each other.
"I see you've been upsetting the locals," Ricky said.
"You know me. So what's new with you?" spike asked.
"Everything and you"
"A few things" spike said.
"Can the reunion wait we are in the middle of something here?" the gang leader shouted.
"Wow what did you do to this guy spike?" Ricky asked.
"I kinda threw him though a shop window"
"So that's why these guys are after you"
"Well why don't we show these guys who they're dealing with" spike said.
"Just like old times" Ricky added.
The two friends attacked spike knocked one of the gang up against a wall another gang member came in with a knife spike grabbed the guys hand and kicked him around the head. Another one of the gang came running at Ricky. Ricky dropped down and rolled the guy over his back and kicked him in the face.
"Now let liven things up" spike said.
Spike picked up a stone and put it between two fingers and placed his fingers near his forehead.
"Finger cannon," he yelled.
Spike threw the stone at one of the gang the stone hit the gang member and knocked him out.
"And another one bites the dust" spike said.
Ricky ran up to a wall and flipped off it and took another one of the gang down with a fly kick now 8 of the gang were down only 3 remained.
"Well don't just stand their get'em," the gang leader shouted.
The gang members attacked. But spike and Ricky soon took them down the gang leader backed up against a wall. Spike and Ricky walked up to him.
"I don't suppose we can talk about this," the gang leader said.
Spike and Ricky looked at each other.
"Nar" they both said.
Both fighters punched the gang leader knocking him out.
"Now that was fun" spike said.
"Yeah it's been a long time since I've been in a good fight" Ricky replied.
"I'm guessing you're here for the tournament" spike asked.
"Yep and I'm not alone deadeye and his gang are here too" Ricky replied.
"That should be a nice surprise for the white tiger gang"
"The white tigers are here"
Spike nodded.
"And there not the only ones Kyle and all his friends are here too" he said.
"Well this tournament going to be most interesting" Ricky added.
"Yes there's going to be surprises for everyone as old friends and foes meet once again"
