Chapter Five: Determined to Win

Myra watched Yu as he smiled happily to himself while eating bacon. "what is up with this guy"myra thought to herself. " It's almost like whenever he's training or things or come to his family he gets super serious and his eyes get pupils...but when he's not in conflict he's relaxed and happy and his eyes are normal blue...."

"Myra are you gonna eat those eggs.... because of you aren't I sure want them!" Yu said snapping her out of her thoughts. "Oh no no you can have them, I'm full!" Myra said tossing the thought away for later questioning.

"Attention... everyone please report to the arena for the first duel of Izanami vs. Modorya!" A woman's voice said crackling over the PA system. "Well I guess it's time for me to go!" Yu said cheerfully rising from the table and setting of at a light jog. "Wait for me!" Mrya shouted trying to catch-up.

They soon arrived at the area that was designated as the arena. The arena was indoors and shaped like a bowl, with the bottom of the arena flat while it had walls that rimmed it to keep the fighters inside. Above the walls were seats that people could sit in and watch from a safe distance. Soon those seats started to fill with eager students.

Myra put a hand on Yu's shoulder." Hey you gonna be all right....?" Yu brushed the hand off, once again in that serious mode of his." I don't want.....your....concern.... friends only make you....weaker." Yu said harshly walking off into the fighting part of the arena. Myra watched him go with a concerned look on her face." Don't worry I'll get through this little barrier of his eventually!" She thought skipping off to watch the fight from the stands.

" Welcome to the deul set between Yu Izanami..... gift none....RANK-D....family secret art none!!!" The female announcer said proceeding over the fight. whispers rippled through the crowd. "RANK-D...." "no gift...." "I got money on Ananias...." "hey, why is the female announcer wearing cat ears and a tail?"

"And on the other side of the arena we have Ananias Modorya....gift superstrenght... RANK-C...family secret art... Goliath!" Everyone cheered. "The rules are simple. The black armband that I gave you yesterday have your rank and gift on them. The fight will continue until one person refuses to get up. The loser of this deul will be forced to leave the academy and will not be able to enter the tournament of God! Any questions fighters.

Yu shook his head no as he stood there sporadically in his black shorts, dark blue t -shirt, and dark green headband so long that the end flapped off into the air behind him the normal part tying back his spiky black hair. His electric blue eyes held black pupils showing that he was serious.

Ananias shook his head no standing in a relaxed manner still wearing the school uniform, with a brown dress hat and a single boxing glove on his left hand. He was covered in a brown aura that clung to his body like a second skin.

"Alright when the countdown reaches one the battle will begin..." the announcer woman instructed the fighters.

"Three!" The whole crowd shouted in harmony.

"Two!" the crowd shouted again.

"One!" They screamed in unison.

"Goooooo!" The announcer woman said as Yu and Ananias dashed at eachother with unnatural speed.

"Yu....please do okay!"Myra said as she watched the two fighter dash twords eachother eager to prove there worth.
