"Fighting in the bright blue uniform is Shin! Which as you've probably have noticed," He laughed a bit to himself, as Shin waved and introduced himself to everyone. "Is quite the friendly character! Don't let that fool you, though, folks! If he's made it this far, he must be full of surprises!" The announcer reminded them, as he turned his attention to the other fighter. "And in the green and yellow, Samu! Who doesn't quite look like someone you'd want to mess around with!" He laughed, as a lot of the more animal-like people in the audience cheered for the fighter who seemed most relatable.

"Hmph, just watch and learn, Roshi." Shen laughed, as he leaned on the brick wall that separated the audience from the arena grounds, eager to watch the beat-down unfold. "This kid won't last ten seconds against one of my most skilled pupils." He assured his rival, as the announcer continued on.

"Okay, guys! Let's try and keep this nice and clean!" He asked of Samu and Shen, as he backed away to the outskirts of the platform. The announcer lifted his microphone high in the air, as he screamed, "Let's get those punches flying!"

A helper in the background sounded the gong once again, as the battle began.

Eno crossed his arms, as he halted at the other side (from Kiro) of the temple's entrance to get a good look at the battle. Eno saw a couple of Shin's fights, but it was extremely difficult to get a read on where he stood in power, as the boy defeated all of his opponents so quickly. He had no idea what the outcome of the battle would be, and that made him uneasy. His face was shown to be calm, as revealing any emotion would only make him seem weak to everyone else, but the young man was very nervous nevertheless.

Shin heard the gong ring an stared down his opponent. he got into a fighting stance with one of his hands up to his face and one to his side. Shin kept staring at his opponent. "How should I come about fighting this guy he was trained by the Crane Hermit?" Shin thought as he inching closer to his opponent. Shin began to run full speed trying to catch him off guard. He doesn't know my skills I may have the upper hand Shin thought as he began to throw a combination (his master's signature technique the Jan Ken). "Rock, Scissors, Paper!" Shin yelled out as he thew a punch, poke him in the eyes, and hit him with an open palm.

"I wouldn't count the boy out that quick that boy is way stronger than he looks," Saitama informed master Shen. "I only know based off of experience"Saitama said as he watched the battle very closely he wanted to see the boy who denied his spot in the quarter-finals in action.

Samu growled as he was nearly hit in the eyes. This kid must not have paid attention to the rules as there was no eye poking. He put his paw up, absorbing the palm blow. Samu could feel the power from this kid, but knew he was just as strong. He took a step forward and snapped out with his sharp teeth, hoping to knock Shin off balance as he dodged. Samu then left his claws unsheathed and lashed out with his left then right and finished with a pounce backwards. He wasn't worried about being knocked out of the ring as Shen taught then some flying. Samu knew no boy like this could best him. To add some insurance, Samu backed up close the edge, hoping to dodge and send Shin flying out of the ring.

"Look at that, folks! It seems like Samu managed to easily block Shin's attack!" The announcer explained to the crowd, as the blow was stopped by Samu's hand. Shin had moved so quickly, the announcer assumed he had only thrown a single punch. If he would have saw the eye-poking incident, Shin would have received a warning. "Uh-oh! It looks as if Samu's using his teeth and claws as weapons now too! How will the boy counterattack!?" The announcer continued to express the just of everything that was going on for the people both up close, and also very far away from the arena.

'That wasn't a single punch that kid threw! It was three attacks! Collectively known as the Jan Ken Fist! Only a select group of people are aware of that move! Who is this boy, really!?' Jackie Chun questioned, as he watched the battle from the outskirts of the temple with the others. 'Could his father really be?...' The turtle hermit questioned to himself, as the deceased fighter flashed through his mind.

'That idiot! If he would have just let the kid poke him in the eyes, the battle would already be over!' Eno angrily expressed in his head, as he clenched his fists. He understood Samu wanted to get a good fight out of the match, but if a person can take a win, he should. At least, that's what Eno always thought. If it were him out there, he wouldn't have wasted any more time than he needed to, and would have gotten the kid disqualified.

"Yikes!" Kiro exclaimed, as he jumped back a bit with every bite Samu snapped at Shin. A bite like that would leave more than just a scratch, at least, that's what Kiro figured. The battle had only just begun, and things were already getting intense.

Master Shen simply smirked, as he watched Samu dodge the poking attack. This pleased the crane master, as he felt as if the boy, along with all those supporting him, needed to learn who was the superior fighter. Especially with Roshi talking how he was.

Shin dodged the bite and almost dodged the claws. They slashed a bit of his shirt, but before Shin could retaliate Samu backed off and close to the edge none the less. "Ahhhh!" Shin yelled out as he began to run full speed at Samu as he did a flying kick at Samu. Shin effort was for nothing as he ran straight into Samu's bait attack as Samus easily dodged his attack leaving him wide open.

Samu easily evaded Shin's attack, hoping the boy would continue to fly through the air and land out of the ring. Samu then noticed the boy had a hairy belt wrapped around his waist. He snapped at it with his teeth as Shin went flying over his head.

Ally finally found Roshi and sat beside him as the fight was halfway through. "Good matchup, huh?" she said, not realising Roshi was already Jackie Chin.

Shin moved his tail before it could get bitten and slapped Samu with it, but Shin momentum was to much he was going to land out of the ring. Think of some thing quick! Shin thought as he starting to slow down. Shin began to move his tail in a helicopter motion flying all the way back to the ring. Shin then threw up the peace sign. "Yeah! I made it," Shin yelled as he laughed, but then was snapped back his attention to Samu who looked like he was preparing his next attack. Shin got into ta battle stance he was ready for anything.

"Oh it's...It's...," Saitama stuttered realizing he didn't know Roshi's student's names. "My Pupil," Saitama said with a awkward laugh rubbing the back of his head. quickly looked at the battle and saw the boy was flying. Saitama mouth dropped wide open as he didn't know the boy could fly even Saitama knew he couldn't fly. "Amazing!" Saitama yelled, "Go kid you can win!" Saitama yelled as he realized he caught himself rooting for the guy who knock him out how ironic.

Samu's head turned as he was slapped. It didn't matter to him that Shin got in one last hit, but then Samu realized Shin was flying. "Hey! You're not a Crane, Turtle lover!" he barked. Samu got on all fours and the visible fur on his neck rode high. "You won't forget this one!" Samu yelled and ran for Shin. He skidded his claws on the stone stage and drifted to be behind Shin. Once behind him, Samu snapped his teeth at Shin's butt. "Mailman Strike!"

Ally shrugged as Roshi acted strange. He was a strange man in general, but she figured this higher awkwardness was stress from the upcoming fight. Then Shin flew in the air, "Wow! Come on, Shin!"

Shin turned around catching his mouth with both hands to stop him from biting him. Shin was struggling but then he pushed him off and kicked him right in the gut. Shin then took a step back allowing Samu to recover. "Wow this is a awesome battle i've never had a fought this serious in my life," Shin thought as he began getting excited as he got back into to his fighting stance.

Samu was kicked across the stage and the air was knocked out of him. This guy is really tough... for a Turtle guy! he said in his head as he recovered. Samu got back onto two legs and ran towards Shin. "Five Finger Strike!" Samu yelled and began shooting his ten fingers, all claws out, at Shin as fast as he could, his hands only seen as blurs to the audience. He needed to end this fight quickly, just as Eno told him, and he wasn't afraid of seriously hurting Shin in the process. He can't escape this! Overall Samu was really tired and just wanted to go to sleep, but he would be able to sleep all he wanted once Shin was knocked out and the battle was won.

Majin Eve had watched as everyone got their slips with numbers on them, she had noticed that the fighter known as Jackie Chun seemed happy and excited to have gotten paired with her for the fights to come. Eve smiled, she remembered that guy, he was the one who beat that girl who used the bright light technique on him.

'maybe I should introduce myself, it'd be nice to get to know a who I'm going to be fighting a little bit before our match begins'

She thought to herself as she began approaching Jackie Chun with a small smile. As she approached the seemingly grey haired man, she gave a passing glace towards Eno, she didn't really know why, but the second she looked at him she felt her brows want to knit into a glare, her hands unconsciously closing into fists for but a moment. As the moment passed she pulled her vision from Eno to look to Jackie Chun who she now stood four feet from. She then felt strange, could this be nervousness?, then she remembered, she didn't have much experience when it came to talking to others, they were normally to afraid of her appearance to try and talk to her, let alone speak to her when she talked to them. She seemed to look doubtful for a moment before she smiled a little shyly.

"Hi Jackie Chun..."

She said before she held out her hand towards him in what she hoped was the proper way to greet someone, she had seen people do this before so it should be right... right?.

"It's nice to meet you, I look forward to our fight"

Eve said with a slightly nervous smile as she continued to hold her hand out to Jackie Chun.

Shin hit hard by the attack hitting the ground hard. Shin seemed as if he was down for the count as he was lying down on his back with is eyes close. The announcer rushed over to the unconscious boy. "Wow everybody Shin is down let me begin the count!" The Announcer yelled as he he put his had up as he was about to start the count. "One....Two.....Three....Four!" The Announcer yelled as he continued to say the count.

"Oh no there no way that boys's getting up well that's a darn shame!" Saitama yelled as he was really invested into the fight.

"HA! I told you that he would be that boy with no problems," Master Shen said with his arrogance was showing.

"Five....Six...Seven....Eight....NINE!!!!Te-" The Announcer stopped as he saw the boy jump right back up.

"Oww that really hurt!" Shin said as he was rubbing his head. "That's it I guess I have no choice but to not hold back anymore!" Shin yelled giving his enemy a warning that he meant business. Shin got into a stance that left him wide open, "looks like I'll have to use the Afterimage," Shin though to himself as he was about to move as soon as Samu moved.

"Haha, serious! If you think I'm serious you really are a silly boy!" Samu said even though he was super serious and about eight years younger than Shin. He prepared for the Five Finger Strike again. It was a powerful move that Master Shen taught them and since it was so effective, he figured he could use it again. Samu ran at Shin who was wide open. Ha! What an idiot! He let out a bark and shot his furry fingers out again at Shin. I've got this in the bag.

Shin moved so fast leaving an afterimage which Samu attacked. Shin then appeared behind Samu, "over here!" Shin yelled as punched Samu in the back. Before Samu could turn he made another afterimage. As Samu turned around he was right behind him again, "ARe you looking for me!" Shin yelled as Samu turned around to hit yet another of Shin's afterimage. "Up Here!" Shin yelled as he came down kicking Samu right in the forehead. "That was a double afterimage," Shin explained as he vanished again.

"I knew that boy wasn't finished!" Saitama yelled in Shin's face. "Go boy!" Saitama yelled as he began to jump up and down.

Samu was hit in the face and his head twisted to the side. He jumped up to attack Shin but was hit again! "What are you doing? Stop it!" he shouted, not understanding how he could make copies of himself. When he was kicked in the face, he decided it was enough. Samu covered his eyes and started to fly into the air to avoid Shin's attack. Once he figured he was high enough, he uncovered his eyes and began growling. "We are the Crane, we can fly!" Samu laughed roughly. He felt safe since no one could fly like the Cranes could! Besides, this kid seemed dumb enough to just tire himself up by trying to reach. Samu would automatically win because Shin would tire himself out. Also, if Shin managed to fly somehow, Samu could see it coming from a mile away! "You can't win, Turtle lover!" He put his paws up to his head and began charging the infamous Dodon Ray. Just in case this gets out of hand...

"It's nice to meet you, I look forward to our fight"

Eve said with a slightly nervous smile as she continued to hold her hand out to Jackie Chun.

"Yes! Yes! I am very excited for our match!" He exclaimed, as he immediately grabbed Eve's hand with both of his, kissing it up and down, making a variety of 'smooching' noises. "Maybe if you're feeling up to it, we could grab a bite to eat after this whole tournament-mess!" He laughed, as he rubbed the back of his head. "Just the two of us! On me, of course!" He assured her.

"One....Two.....Three....Four!" The Announcer yelled as he continued to say the count.

"Huh?" Chun popped his head up, as he looked through the doorway from afar, just barely able to make out Shin's motionless body. "Is it over already?" He questioned. "That's a darn shame, I thought that kid had quite the potential." Jackie Chun admitted to no-one-in-particular.

"Get up, Shin! You can't lose now!" Kiro screamed at him, cupping his hands over his mouth so his voice wouldn't be as drowned out in the large crowd.

"Five....Six...Seven....Eight....NINE!!!!Te-" The Announcer stopped as he saw the boy jump right back up.

"Oww that really hurt!" Shin said as he was rubbing his head. "That's it I guess I have no choice but to not hold back anymore!" Shin yelled giving his enemy a warning that he meant business. Shin got into a stance that left him wide open, "looks like I'll have to use the Afterimage," Shin though to himself as he was about to move as soon as Samu moved.

Jackie Chun had turned his attention back to the beautiful girl in front of him, until he had suddenly heard Shin's voice once more. "What the-!?" He screamed, as his mouth gaped open, even he was shocked at the young boy's endurance.

"Wow! A single syllable away from a knockout! Give him a round of applause, ladies and gentlemen!" The announcer exclaimed, as the crowd went wild in response to the boy's quick recovery.

Shin moved so fast leaving an afterimage which Samu attacked. Shin then appeared behind Samu, "over here!" Shin yelled as punched Samu in the back. Before Samu could turn he made another afterimage. As Samu turned around he was right behind him again, "Are you looking for me!" Shin yelled as Samu turned around to hit yet another of Shin's afterimage. "Up Here!" Shin yelled as he came down kicking Samu right in the forehead. "That was a double afterimage," Shin explained as he vanished again.

"I knew that boy wasn't finished!" Saitama yelled in Shin's face. "Go boy!" Saitama yelled as he began to jump up and down.

Samu was hit in the face and his head twisted to the side. He jumped up to attack Shin but was hit again! "What are you doing? Stop it!" he shouted, not understanding how he could make copies of himself.

"Wow! It appears that Shin has made numerous copies of himself! How does he do it!?" The announcer questioned, as he watched on, just as excited about the match as the crowd.

"What the-!?" Jackie Chun repeated, as his mouth gaped open even farther down to the floor. 'Those aren't any clones! He's moving so quickly, it's leaving behind a mirage of himself! It's the afterimage! How could he have possibly mastered it so quickly at such a young age!?' The disguised master questioned, possibly the most surprised at Shin's abilities. The boy had the potential to be a great fighter one day.

When he was kicked in the face, he decided it was enough. Samu covered his eyes and started to fly into the air to avoid Shin's attack. Once he figured he was high enough, he uncovered his eyes and began growling. "We are the Crane, we can fly!" Samu laughed roughly. He felt safe since no one could fly like the Cranes could! Besides, this kid seemed dumb enough to just tire himself up by trying to reach. Samu would automatically win because Shin would tire himself out. Also, if Shin managed to fly somehow, Samu could see it coming from a mile away! "You can't win, Turtle lover!" He put his paws up to his head and began charging the infamous Dodon Ray. Just in case this gets out of hand...

"Unbelievable, folks! We've never seen such a fight here before!" The announcer shouted into the microphone, as Samu began to float up to the sky. The announcer ran over to his location, as he became fully covered in the man-wolf's shadow. He simply stared upward in disbelief, as the fighter continued to fly in the sky. "This isn't any illusion! Samu is actually flying! And it looks like-" The announcer squinted to get a better look at the situation in the sky. "It looks like he's charging up some sort of powerful attack!" The announcer continued.

"I don't know how the kid survived Samu's Five-Finger Strike, but this is it for the kid." Master Shen chuckled. "I'd be surprised if he actually lived through to see another day after being hit by..." He paused for dramatic effect, as he pointed into the sky, right at Samu. "The Dodon Ray!" He exclaimed.

"Hey come back here I'm not done with you yet also why do you keep calling me a turtle lover i don't even like turtles that much!?" Shin yelled as he tried to explanation out of Samu. Shin put his hand over his eyes to try to make out what the dog man was trying to do. He seemed to be charging up and attack that he was about to blast at Shin. "Hey that's unfair your cheating! Shin yelled even though he clearly doesn't know the rules.

Saitama was looking up, "Huh did you say do do ray...what does it do turn him in to a Dodo bird?" Saitama asked unsure if he was going to get a response at all. "Hopefully that kid doesn't get turned into a bird" Saitama thought as he a thinking bubble started to play out the scenario of the boy getting his by the ray and turning into you guessed it a dodo bird.

Samu ignored all of Shin's questions and continued to charge. "Dodon Ray!" he shouted clearly, launching the yellow beam of energy from his finger at Shin. Trhis is it, I've already won the battle! Eno will be proud! he thought, happier than ever. He would carry on the good reputation of the Crane School and lower the Turtles' morale by crushing one of their puny Turtle Companions.

(I accidentally described TriBeam in the last post. XD)

Shin was looking at the attack knowing he could have dodged it but Shin was stuck in his place as bad memories of Mercenary Tao using it against his father. Shin was hit right dead in the shoulder making Shin slam off the ground leaving a burn on his shoulder. Shin was once again down on the ground "AHHH!" Shin yelledw while laying on the ground. before the announcer could get the chance to count Shin got up putting his hand over his injury. "No I...I can't lose to this guy if I lose here what would be thee point of my training it, and i wouldn't help Kiro either if i lose to this guy it would make that other Crane student unbeatable" Shin thought as he began to grind his teeth to keep his mind of the pain. "I won't lose!" Shin yelled so Samu could here. Shin began to move really fast making a bunch of Afterimages, but they were only distractions for his real plan. While Samu was trying to find the real one in the group Shin jumped as High as he could jumping even higher of where Samu position Shin was began to fall down coming right at Samu.

"Wow what a powerful attack how could he stand after that is he even Human?" Saitama asked he was began to see that the kid was up to something but what.

Samu let out a bark of victory as Shin was hit. He would've liked to hit the kid in the face, but this was good enough since he was injured. Samu laughed so hard his eyes closed for a moment. When he opened them back up, he was surprised to see several Shins around the arena. "What? How?" Samu yelled. This... This can't be happening! I won't lose! He began to shoot ki blasts at the Shin copies, trying his best to find the boy. "Where are you, Turtle Boy?" He looked around, trying to find the real Shin as he dispersed these illusion clones. "You can't hide from me forever!" Samu saw something flash upwards and felt his fur get ruffled by the wing. "What the-?" he stammered before looking up, only to see Shin's foot coming straight for his face!
