<i>Almost soundlessly, the door to GYM opens and a glasses wearing teen enter the facility. He scratches the back of his head sheepishly and looks around.</i> I think I'm still in Japan but.... I didn't think there'd be so many strange people out in the open here. This could be another TATARI. I really don't want to deal with another one of those... <i>Taking notice of the impending tag battle needing a final participant, he curiously ends up walking towards the three prepared for battle. Before he can ask what they plan on doing he ends up tripping into the arena and almost landing on his glasses.</i> Ow... That's not the impression I wanted to make...

<i>Taking the gut punch as Luard says the fight should come to an end. Avoiding the staff aimed at his knife hand, he lightly jumps back and hopes Gou will call off the bullet before he has to remove his glasses.</i> That was pretty intense! You guys might be able to give Arc a run for her money at your best. If this had been a more serious kind of thing I don't know what I'd do. Akiha'd kill me for fighting regardless though... Oh crap, Akiha! She's going to kill me for not getting home! It was nice meeting you three. I might see you all again next time I'm in Tokyo. <i>Assuming he didn't have to deal with a bullet train sized... bullet, Shiki would adjust his glasses, give a short wave and run out of GYM.</i>

<i>With neither of the two opponents directing their complete focus on him, Shiki crouches low before pushing off the ground with both feet. Moving faster than the average human eye can perceive for a brief instant, he goes to appear directly in front of Gou as if he teleported.</i> Hah! <i>With a shout, he attempts to kick Gou squarely in the chest with his right foot, attempting to push off the ground with his left and take them both to the air. If successful, he'd slam Gou down before landing himself.</i><div class='edited'>(edited by Tohno_Shiki)</div>

Huh? A fight? I'm more of a pacifist really but... <i>Shiki stands and glances at Luard as he draws his circles alone. Sighing, he continues.</i> I guess I can't just let him fight by himself. Try not to kill me though, ok? I don't usually enjoy fighting against mages. <i>Taking a deep breath, Shiki's eyes become serious in stark contrast to his previous more laid back demeanor. With a practiced motion, he draws a small knife from his pocket and jumps back towards Luard.</i> I'l try not to slow you down ok?

<i>Pausing his counter attack, Shiki quickly responds to Gou with a smile.</i> Don't sweat it! I'm just a bit out of practice is all. Try this on for size. <i>Narrowing his eyes, the boy quickly turns his knife in his hands and vertically slashes at Gou, attempting to distract him with the attack to once again <b>Flash Dash</b> and get behind him.</i> I just hope I won't have to go all out just to put up a decent fight. <i>Shiki uses any time got with this maneuver to glance down at the ground around himself and Gou over his glasses. How strange.</i>

Huh? <i>Shiki attempts to right himself in the air rather unsuccessfully given he's but a human and tries to cut through one of the energy bullets for little gain. Getting hit by all the shots that would strike him on his way back to the ground, Shiki is left even more surprised by Gou's speed.</i> Oh crap! <i>Fumbling a landing, Shiki brandishes his knife and begins to reach for his glasses before stopping suddenly. Opting instead to try and feign a retreat with a quick backstep. If he's lucky, Gou would fall for the basic strategy and not expect him to immediately dash forward and aim a strike with the back of his knife and the man's chest.</i>

I finally realized... <i>A look of comprehension briefly touches his mind.</i> You remind me of those live action super heroes I used to watch growing up! I didn't think those actually existed! This place is crazier than I thought. <i>Grabbing a handful of rocks in his free hand he throws them at the two bullets moving about without a care.</i> This is a team battle now isn't it... So that means... <i>Lifting his glasses up for a moment, Shiki Flash Dashes again, this time trying to end up in front of Harry as Gou is in the air. With a bit of luck on top of the element of surprise, he'd hopefully be able to slash at the ground beneath Harry and break that part of the arena into several pieces that fall into themselves as he jumps away.</i>

<i>With a slight smirk, Shiki's knife seems to flash in the light as he readies it.</i> I'll show you some flash if that's your game. Don't get too mad at the results though. <i>As the shots focus on the unaware Shiki, he stabs his knife in a seemingly random spot on the ground. Slicing through the ground like it were paper, he quickly cuts a chunk of the arena off and slams his foot on it to launch it up. Grabbing it with his free hand, he'd chuck it at Gou to buy some time as he sprints around his current opponent slicing the ground around him.</i>
