Hiwatari Rei: Burst Forth

You know, no matter how long you're with someone, it's seems they'll always find a way to take you by surprise. So it was that I looked back to find the kid hurtling after me. Now I should be clear, the fact that she was chasing after me wasn't entirely surprising, in fact it was to be expected after all. She obviously wanted to lay her hands on the trap and getting a chance to stop me was simply double the fun. That said, what kind of speed master got scared of someone else displaying speed of their own?

There's a difference between those who have lived their lives running, like yours truly, and those who race behind them. The others start panting, they slow down, their faces contort. 

You ever watch a professional race?

The champions make it look easy. 

Just a little opening of the stride. A cocky grin to get those endorphins rushing. Oh yeah, that cheeky nod to the audience as you realize no one else is going to catch you. And most of all: the best have fun being the best. 

It's not showboating, it's living. 

Of course, that little trick of just improving my form wasn't all I was about to do. Cyare was no pushover, even without the added benefits of her new partner's magic, but she also wasn't a champion like yours truly. I had quite a few more gears to turn on, no way was I was about to just let the others catch us and hurt the poor little trap. 

"Hey jungle boy. Hold on tight." Was the only warning I really had for the guy, as I kicked things up another notch, "Vermillion Bird Style - Hyper Cast Off: Wings of Fire!" With magnificent flare, bright flaming wings spurted out of my back to propel me forward for another massive burst of speed. Even when the wings had faded, fire continued pump through my legs leaving each step more explosive than the last. They didn't call me the blitzing magician for nothing. Although I confess I feel a little bad for the poor birds that scattered from the trees the moment my wings made their explosive beat. Shockwaves aren't fun for anyone that's not in the epicenter. 

All that said, I really didn't know if I'd lose the others for long, that's what happens when you don't know your opponent's magic. But I had another weapon up my sleeve as well. They had me in this three legged races, and I was currently only hopping along on one leg. 

"Hey Jungle Boy, you know what would really impress the kid. If we beat them in this race. Trust me, she's a sucker for anyone with hyper competence, and if you can boost my speed even further she'd probably throw herself at you."

Okay, so I exaggerated things a bit. Still, the jungle boy was my partner right now, whether he realized it or not. Still, never underestimate the passion of juvenile crushes. 

Honestly, kids are something else.
