Shin kicked Samu in the face jumping off of him to catch more air at the same time. As he started to go face forward to make his speed go faster so he could catch up Samu who was falling when he caught up as began to throw punches and kicks as both were falling Shin made sure to say above knowing if he let him get over him he can just fly off. As Shin felt he was going to about to lose Samu he jumped off again realizing he went a little far away he began to use he helicopter to slow his fall a bit closing off the distance again grabbing on Samu leg so he would fly off. "I'm not letting you get away!" Shin yelled as he began to climb on the dog mans back.

Samu spun in the air and put his arms in front of his body, trying to block as many kicks and punches as possible. No, no, I can't lose this fight, especially not to a friends of the Turtles! he screamed furiously to himself. He bit out at Shin, hoping to catch him off guard, only furthering to expose his face to the attack. There was nothing he could do at this point. He couldn't fly away, he couldn't launch Shin off of him, all he had to do was take this onslaught and then get back up. "You won't win this, Turtle Kid!" Samu barked, his voice cracking a bit. His throat dried as the pain continued to grow and grow. You need to win this for Master Shen.

Shin then keep climbing until he was on top of Samu accidentally covering Samu's eyes as he almost lost his grip. Shin then jumped off of Samu back up into the air again. "I need to get him back to the ground once I can I can finish this, but how " Shin thought as he began to come down with another kick but to only for Samu to dodge it. "I missed!" Shin said as he began to fall back down to the ring Shin began to fall down faster and faster. "Dangit I'm defenseless like this Shin thought my only way of getting out of this is if I get to the ground quickly" Shin thought as he turned away from Samu to go face forward to reach the ground as fast as possible.

Samu felt relief once he managed to dodge one kick realized that Shin was now turning away from him! This is my chance! He started to fly down towards Shin, the annoying Turtle Friend, and started to charge up another Dodon Ray. He was going to charge up his ki enough so that he wouldn't have to worry if he hit anywhere but the face. If Shin was even grazed by his powerful attack he would be knocked out instantly, or at least Samu guessed. "Say goodnight, Mr. Turtle!" he growled, closing the distance between him and Shin as he flew down faster.

Shin could see Samu's shadow off of the Ring seeing that he was coming right behind him. He did a flip landing on the ground on his feet and quickly moved dodging the Dodon ray. As soon as Samu was in ranged Shin leaped and punched Samu making him crash right off the ring making breaking some of the tiles of the ring. Shin had huge grin on his face "I got him!" Shin yelled in excitement while landing clenching his fist in excitement all he had to do is wait for the announcer to count as this could be the end of the fight.

"What! the boy pulled a complete 360 in the fight!" Saitama yelled. "No wonder why I lost to him he's on completely different level then I am only means I need to work harder" Saitama thought to himself. "I will get stronger," Saitama said under his breath making the promise that he will train even harder than ever before even harder than training until he was bald.

"H-Huh?" The announcer stuttered, as he saw Shin look off in his direction. "O-Oh, right!" He exclaimed, as he quickly ran over to the manwolf on the ground to begin the count. Everything happened so fast, the announcer was still trying to comprehend all of what took place! "One!" He counted, putting out his index finger to the unconscious Samu's face. "Two!..." He put up two fingers.

Eno growled, as he took a step out into the open, just outside the entrance to the temple. "You're not going to give up so easily! Get up and fight, Samu!" He angrily shouted, his fists clenched tightly. He sounded rather harsh, but it was only because he genuinely cared.

"Stand up, you worthless mutt!" Master Shen shouted angrily at his young pupil, as he leaned over the grounds' barrier to make sure Samu heard him nice and clear. "If you don't get up now, you'll be a disgrace not only as a Crane Pupil, but as a fighter!" The old man assured him.

"Three! Four! Five!" The announcer continued.

Samu's body ached and all of his energy was zapped from the Dodon Ray. "One...! Two...! Three...!" He began to push himself up, the pain in his shoulders unbearable. He knew he couldn't lose this battle, not for himself, not for Master Shen, and most importantly not for Eno. He heard his friend's calls from the crowd. "Four...! Five...! Six...!" He heard Shen's words and they hurt him more than the physical pain. The world was spinning around him and he was losing balance even though he was only propped up on his elbows. He had felt pain before, but this was worse than any of that. I can't lose! Samu thought desperately as he rose even higher, now on his palms. "Seven...! Eight...! Nine...!" He noticed his claws were torn, some completely missing, but this only flowed determination higher. He tried to push up using all of the strength left in his thighs. The world continued to spin and Samu's body failed on him. He collapsed as the count hit, "Ten! Shin is the winner by knockout!" Just then a Dodon Ray blast shot right for Samu! He couldn't do anything but close his eyes and let out a whimper. He didn't mean to upset anyone by losing, he really did try his best, and now he was going to die because of this friend of the Turtles.

"Ten! Shin is the winner by knockout!" The announcer exclaimed, as the crowd began to go wild once more.

Master Shen growled, as he raised up his finger, pointed straight at the pupil. "I'll kill you!" He shouted angrily, as the powerful yellow beam shot straight out from his finger tip, aimed dead-center for Samu's forehead.

"What!? Look out!" Jackie Chun exclaimed, as he watched in horror from the entrance of the temple, there was nothing anyone could do to stop it. He should have known the old fool would try something of the caliber.

"Master, no!" Eno screamed, as he started to dash off for the platform, but things were already too late. Master Shen's ray was much faster and stronger than anything the two students could ever shoot. Suddenly everything seemed to go silent, as Eno heard an impact, he was certain that the manwolf had been hit. It was too late.

Shin saw the blast coming,"No!" Shin yelled as he got in front of the blast open up his arms shielding the blast. the blast hit Shin right in the chest making him fly into the wall breaking it. Causing him to become unconscious as his dragon ball fell out of where the hole was left.

"What are you doing!?" Saitama yelled at Shen as he got in front of Shen before he could shoot another one. "Stop this now!" Saitama said. "What kind of monster shoot's at his own pupil?" Saitama thought as he looked he turned around to see that damaged that was done. "Not the kid i liked him" Saitama thought to himself wishing he was strong enough to take master Shen on himself.

Akita held her breath as the blast headed straight for Samu. She knew she wasn't close enough to get there in time. Her jaw dropped, as their companion ran in the way. "Shin!" Akita shouted and ran onto the grass to be beside the boy who was partially stuck in the wall. She placed two fingers on his neck and tried her best to feel for a pulse. It was there, but Shin was still out cold. "He's still alive!" Akita shouted to the audience that cheered for Shin's heroic actions. "I knew you'd win," she chuckled and let the paramedics take over. "I can't believe he made it through the fight and that attack!" Akita told Kiro when she returned to him.

Ally cheered for Shin as much as anyone else. He had beaten the odds and defeated a Crane student! "That's right, Shin!" Then a blast made its way for Samu. She wished that she was quicker and could take the blast instead of Samu. He was beaten and now he was going to be killed! Then Shin took the blow instead. "Shin!" Ally yelled, but it was no use. The crowd waited in mainly anxious silence, very few whispers ringing through. When Akita yelled out Shin's condition, everyone cheered. The boy was alive! "Yeah, Shin!" She then looked over at Roshi clapping and commented, "Wow, that boy really can take a few hits, can't he?" She then realized the man next to her wasn't Roshi. "Wait, you aren't Ro- You know what, never mind." It wasn't worth even discussing, this must've been one of Roshi's hair-brained schemes to keep up his Jackie Chun persona, and it was working... for the most part.

Samu closed his eyes tightly as he felt the warmth of the ray, but nothing hit him. He opened his eyes after a minute only to see Shin being examined by a Turtle. Tears welled up in his eyes as he barked as loud as he could, "Thank you, Turtle Shin!" With that, Samu blacked out completely drained physically, emotionally, and psychologically.

(I realize now that you only made Samu black out so you wouldn't have to roleplay him anymore. XD)

"Yeah, that kid's pretty s-strong." Kiro stuttered, if Akita or he were hit by such an attack, it more than likely would have killed them! He never imagined that the tournament would get so intense!

"And brave too. I've never seen a boy like him before." Jackie Chun interjected, as he approached the two, his eyes never leaving the unconscious boy.

"How did he know he'd survive like that?" Kiro questioned, even from so far away, the young boy could feel the power of the powerful attack the master had shot.

"Mmm..." Jackie Chun mumbled, as he stroked his beard. "Look over there, you two." He pointed off in the distance, past the paramedics looking at Shin, as a shining orange ball was visible, which had rolled just a bit aways from the boy. "He didn't know. The boy jumped in the way without knowing the outcome that was to follow. He was ready to give his life away for a man from the same school as the person who killed his father, and if weren't for that ball of his, he would have. It looks like Lady Luck still has some plans for him." The old man laughed awkwardly, as he tried to distance himself just slightly from his two pupils. "Or something, you know!" He laughed, he couldn't be too personal with them, or else they'd catch on! Probably! 'Perfect...'

"Ladies and gentlemen!" The announcer announced spoke through the microphone, as he got to the center of the stage. "We will be taking a brief intermission of about thirty minutes to check on Shin! Please stay tuned! In the meantime, why don't we give another round of applause for the young boy's heroic acts!?" He exclaimed, as the audience gave some mighty claps in return, as the announcer quickly rushed over to the wounded boy.

"He'll be just fine." One of the medical officials assured the announcer, as he scooped Shin up in his arms. "We'll get him all patched up; things definitely could have turned out a lot worse." He informed, as his other staff members nodded in agreement before carrying the boy off.

Shen struggled to look past the bald man blocking his path, until he suddenly calmed down. "Get off me, you fool!" He exclaimed, as he pushed 'Master Roshi' out of his way.

Two burly security guards approached Shen, as they patted him on the back. "We're going to have to ask you to leave the premises." The informed him in a very monotone fashion.

Shen gave one last look at Samu before turning to face the men. "Get out of my way." He angrily mumbled, as he pushed both of them very easily to the side. With that done, Shen began to make his way through the crowd, assumingly to leave, as he disappeared in the thousands of people.

Eno halted just in front of Samu's head. He took one last look at his departing master before slowly bending down towards Samu's back. He got a firm grab on Samu's robes, holding onto the logo of their school. He suddenly snatched upwards, as the logo was completely torn off. Eno dropped it, as the piece of fabric slowly floated towards the ground, just in front of the manwolf's face. Eno purposely stepped on it, as he then proceeded to wriggle his foot to completely ruin it. He then slowly lifted his foot backwards before launching it forward towards Samu's face, to potentially send him flying through the crowd. "You no longer deserve to call yourself a pupil of Master Shen." He whispered, as he turned back to the temple. Without another look back, he walked passed Jackie Chun and the others to return to his original position, as if nothing had happened.

"u-umm..."

Eve's brows raised in surprise as Jackie took her hand and kissed it up and down, she didn't know how to respond to this, never had she had this happen to her before. Ever since she could remember after she had woken up on this world the people tended to want to keep their distance from her, or lash out at her with insults and names. Though she never really cared what others thought or had to say about her, she never liked having to hear it. So she found the way Jackie Chun greeted her to be rather shocking. Then Jackie had mentioned something about getting something to eat after the tournament, just the two of them and that he'd pay for it. Though it'd be really hard to tell for obvious reasons, a faint blush had found it's way to Eve's cheeks.

"yeah... that sounds... nice..."

She said with a small smile before proceeding to watch the match that was ongoing. After the intense battle which Eve watched with interest she got a little excited.

'it looks like the fighters in these rounds of the tournament are much stronger than in the beginning, I might actually find a challenge here'

Eve thought as she let loose a small excited giggle.

'I can't wait for my match!'

(I realize now that you only made Eno kick Samu is so I have to roleplay him again.)

Samu was still knocked out, so he didn't feel the patch being ripped off nor was he aware that he was kicked over the wall and into the crowd. Paramedics now had to go to him, though it wasn't nearly as serious as Shin.

"Hey, what was that?" Ally shouted at Eno, though he probably couldn't hear, then spoke to Saitama-Roshi. "What's that kid's problem? That's his fellow Crane, right?"

Akita considered Jackie Chun's words. Shin was on a mission to kill a man from the Crane School and yet he so quickly saved a student of the school. It was indeed noble of the boy and it showed that he probably didn't have a hate for the school itself, just the man who killed his father.

(Some unspecified time later...
Although Saitama can respond to Ally if he wants to...)

The wall, along with the platform, had now been temporarily fixed so the next fight could continue without any complications. The announcer made his way back onto the center-stage, as he held the microphone up to his lips. "You'll all be pleased to know that little Shin will be able to continue on to the semi-finals!" Before he could continue, the crowd became rowdy, as the screamed and clapped for their hero, Shin. "Now everybody, without further ado, get ready! It's time for the next great match!" He exclaimed to try and get the crowd fired up once again for the second match in the quarterfinals. "You might just recognize one of these two fighters, folks; it's Akita, versus Gin, the great hero of West City!" He revealed to the crowd, as they became louder than ever before. Many of the young girls in the crowd began to faint, as just being in such a man's presence was just too much for them. "You heard that right, people! The Wind Chaser has come to claim the title as the world's strongest! Will Akita be able to keep up with West City's very own superhero?" He questioned. "Well, if it's anything like the last fight, I'm sure this one is sure to be full of surprises!" He assured the crowd, as he awaited the appearance of the two fighters.

"Break a leg, Akita!" Kiro laughed, as he patted her on the back. "Well, actually..." He paused for a moment, as he reviewed over what he just said. "Maybe forget the leg breaking, and just go beat him!" He exclaimed.

"Thanks Kiro, I'll do my best," Akita said, smirking at his silliness. Akita gulped and made her way up to the stage. She tried to remind herself that it was just another fight, but it was hard to think that way when so many people were watching. Once Gin got onto the stage, she bowed to him like Roshi taught them and then got into a neutral fighting stance, ready to defend or attack on a moment's notice.

When Akita's name was called Ally began to cheer. She had no doubt the girl would perform well, and knew the girl had a chance of winning. She politely cheered when Gin's name was called and hoped he wouldn't use his music. She didn't want Akita to be off of her game in any way.

Gin watched the first matches and was curious to see the first battle between the Crane and Turtle schools so that he could see what kind of competition they could pose when his matches against them came up. Gin was startled by master Shen attempting to kill one of his students and was going to intervene, but Shin beat him too it. This Crane school seemed to enjoy committing acts of extreme violence, even with their own students. He was worried about Shin when he saw the boy take the brunt of the blast, but he was relieved to see that his new friend was unharmed.

The announcer then came on the stage and announced Gin's match with Akita and the young hero became super excited. He quickly flew onto the arena and did a graceful landing and then pumped up his fist at the cheering crowd.

"Hello tournament viewers! This match will be dedicated to truth, justice and the hero's way!" he shouted loudly to the crowd and they gave a cheer. Some of the audience had clothing and wearable items themed off his costume, they were fans of his acts of heroics and they were cheering him on. Gin did a hero's pose and then turned his attention to Akita returning her bow.

"Let's give these awesome people a fight to remember. First some serious fighting tunes!" he said and then pressed a button on his suit.



Once the music began playing, Gin got into a fighting stance and his facial expression became more serious. After waiting several seconds to think about how to begin this fight, Gin went on the offensive and decided that it was best to go on the attack before Akita did. Gin spun around like a top and a twister of air was created around him obscuring him from view. The twister then quickly dispersed and Gin shot towards Akita at insane speeds and was a total blur. His right fist was pulled back and he was looking to land a powerful punch to his opponent's gut.

(The announcer never said to begin, so I'm going to have him go ahead and do that. XDD)

"In the red gi, we have Akita!" The announcer exclaimed, as she came onto the stage. Once Gin came onto the scene, the crowd went wild, as it was clear that the man needed little introduction.

"He's even more handsome in person!" One of his fans exclaimed before fainting, much like many others, sadly, no one was there to catch her, as she slammed into the ground.

"Looks like I don't even need to give an introduction for this young man; it's the Wind Chaser of West City, Gin!" He confirmed for the crowd, as they continued to cheer for him.

"Fighters, take your positions! Let's go!" The announcer exclaimed, as the gong was rung once again, signalling the start of the battle.

Once the music began playing, Gin got into a fighting stance and his facial expression became more serious. After waiting several seconds to think about how to begin this fight, Gin went on the offensive and decided that it was best to go on the attack before Akita did. Gin spun around like a top and a twister of air was created around him obscuring him from view. The twister then quickly dispersed and Gin shot towards Akita at insane speeds and was a total blur. His right fist was pulled back and he was looking to land a powerful punch to his opponent's gut.

"It looks like Gin's put on his own..." The announcer coughed awkwardly. "Theme music?" He questioned confusingly, as he began to scratch his head. "Could this be a dangerous technique to throw off his opponents rhythm!?" He suggested to the crowd, as Gin immediately began his attack. The announcer covered his face with his arm, as he tried to keep himself from flying off the stage from Gin's twister. He took a few forced steps backwards, as he tried to keep his ground. "It looks like Gin is spinning so fast, he's creating a tornado of sorts around him! What an incredible technique!" The announcer exclaimed, as the cheers from the audience confirmed that they all indeed agreed.

Akita knew Gin used winds and music, but she didn't know what his tornado attack was. The music distored as he spun, so she tried to ignore her hearing as best as she could. She was fast enough to see Gin, but didn't know what kind of attack he was trying, so when he launched she rolled away, getting caught on her left foot by the massive punch. It hurt to step on, so she switched her stance and stood with her right leg in front rather than left. I hope he doesn't notice, she thought. Akita figured it would be best to stay defensive while her foot rested. She knew he would be fast if he made a tornado, so now she wouldn't be off guard. She needed to find a way to counter him.

Gin was hoping to land a full punch on Akita when he attacked, but she managed to dodge enough so that her foot was hit by his fist. He quickly spun around not wanting to lose track of his opponent and saw her firing off dozens of energy blasts towards him. Gin dove out of the way to try and dodge the oncoming attacks. Gin managed to dodge most of the blasts, but two of them managed to hit him on his back and burn a bit of his cape. He cursed to himself as he rolled on the ground to put out the fire on his back and he quickly got back on his feet.

"Hurricane Hammer!" he shouted and a hammer made out of glowing solid air appeared. With a motion of his hand, the wind construct flew towards Akita and with movements of his hand, Gin was able to control the direction of the weapon's flight and had it aimed to slam right into his opponent with incredible force. If she dodged it then he would make it chase after and force her to focus on it rather than him.

(For the record, I did edit my previous post and removed Akita's ki blast attack, but don't worry about editing your post. Let's just keep going like Gin didn't get his back and cape burned. Sorry about that.)

Akita crossed her arms over her chest to form an "X" and took the hammer's blow. The pain in her arms wasn't extreme, but it was enough to be very distracting. Focus on him, not the pain. Once she had absorbed the whole blow, Akita raced to Gin. When she was about a foot away from him, she dropped down on her right leg, keeping her left leg straight and bending her right to create a "4", and slid between his legs. She caught both in a much harder than needed grip and dragged them with her as best as she could, hoping to knock him to the ground. She wasn't exactly a ground fighter, but if she could throw him off his game, then this was what she had to do. She popped up from the ground and faced Gin.
