Chapter 7: Rematch!: part 1.
Lophin ran home, feeling so stupid for ever challenging Talon. "I'm a demon!" he thought, "How could I lose to a simple boy? Where in the world does that make sense? I have to learn how to control it...That way I can prove to myself and everyone else how strong I really am!"
Lophin entered the door to his apartment. He went into a kitchen and took out a well-sized knife. "Last time it was triggered, I was in pain," he thought, " could it possibly work again?" He began to stab his own arm, holding back the shrieks of pain. He kept stabbing again and again, the repetitive motion seemingly as endless as the wooden bird at the watering hole. Soon he had covered all of his body parts three times, a fourth of his kitchen floor permanently stained. "Maybe its emotional pain?" he wondered as he let his demon heal his wounds. He started thinking about how things had been and how they were now. This got him so angry that he punched his kitchen table, snapping it in half, and breaking his hand in the process. "That is enough!" he screamed. He began to focus his chakra to his body parts and let out wave after wave at his kitchen wall...
Lophin was running to the Anbu Headquarters. He arrived panting, and horribly wounded, from his retries. He demanded that the man at the information desk tell him where Talon lived. The man took one look at Lophin and thought that he must have been beaten by the best ninja in the sharingan bloodline and wanted a rematch...
"He's down by the lake, fishing," the man replied. Lophin resumed his heavy sprint this time in the opposite direction, heading west towards Lake Kaito. When he got there, he found Talon out in a boat fishing, just as the man had told Lophin. Lophin did a chakra leap onto and through the boat and upon resurfacing, challenged Talon to a rematch.
"What the hell do you think you are doing? You sank my boat!" Talon fumed. "That's it now you owe me. When I beat you again you have to pay me for property damage!"
"Whatever I just wanted to fight with you again," Lophin replied.
