(Fight?)
Crkpunch!
Shiryu does not get a moment to process the situation as a fist cracks his jaw sending him sprawling across the town
“To think the Chief has fallen off so badly that she has to bring with her a monster to fight against us” a young man cracks his knuckles, his eyes are the same pale gray as Aki but his face is rougher and his head shaved
Cracsh!
He jumps up then smashes down elbow first onto a confused Shiryu
“At least explain–“
“–Granite fist!”
Crckbifff!
“This a fight for your life monster, if you plan on talking it will be in the afterlife”
(Shit)
…..
Feowwwwooom!
A blast of fire whizzes past Aki,
“You going to have to try better than that brother,” Aki dusts her shoulder
The young man across her smirks brushing his fiery orange hair back,
“I don’t want to hear no excuses when I turn you char then–
–Scorpion burn!”
“Poison fog!” Aki blows out then claps the magic gas at him forcing the young man to cancel his attack
“Burning cheetah pounce!”
The man punches speedily like a beast, his hands covered in flaming fiery claws
“Hyah!”
Aki agilely slides under him as soon as he gets near, locking her legs around his neck she shifts the momentum and–
Wharck!
Slams the mans head into ground,
Whump!
At that same moment Shiryu’s body rockets into the woman knocking her down
“Shiryu!” she pushes him off her angrily
“Aghh I can’t just stop myself from being thrown in mid air, that guy is handing me my ass”
“Switch then” Aki pushes him aside going for her other brother
“I can’t hold back with you the man grimaces”
“Diamond fists
Rocket punc–”
Stampp!
Aki leaps up in an instant mashing her foot down on the mans face,
“You were always the slowest Bane” she says taking out a brass knuckle
Braachkk!
And punches it down on the man’s skull
“Shiryu out the way!” Aki shouts holding the woozy man’s arm over her shoulder
And with one twist she–
“Erghh”
–Tosses the muscular body of the young man over shoulder,
Shiryu understanding her attempt jumps at the orange haired man pushing him in the way of–
Wham!
The two collide
“Aghh, get off Bane!”
“Had enough Natsu?” Aki taunts stretching her arms
“That’s it, I’m using it”
“Go ahead, you know what happened the last time.” Aki retorts though she cautiously begins to conjure a cloud of smoke surroundings her
Natsu takes a deep breath clenching his fists before saying the word
“I hear no ev–”
“–Do no evil!”
The icy cold voice of another person interjects,
The fiery young man stops moving completely becoming like a lifeless mannequin,
*Punch!*
Aki immediately darts up to land a quick blow on the man who falls limp
“You have to stop making stupid bets like” a woman walks out of the large bamboo structure
“Aghh” the other man gets up,
“Aki said she’d be back in eight days, the sun just set so she didn’t make it,”
“I didn’t make it into the grand tent but I got here a while ago,
Surely that counts” she argues
“It doesn’t, and Fuyu, Natsu is going to be very angry when he wakes up” he turns to the other woman,

She looks near identical to Aki, although taller and her hair is a long, silky snow white
“Natsu knows how my requiem works, and he was going to use his first so I stopped it,
Tell him to take it up with granddad”
“Well, I say it does anyways,” Aki cuts into the talk replying to her brother’s previous words
“And I am the chief”
“Is the fighting over?” Shiryu speaks up still confused from the series of events
“Why did you bring home beast Aki?” Fuyu looks curiously at him
“Shiryu is actually a human… I think,
But he is also a dragon”
“Hey, I told you don’t go blurting that out”
“Relax these are my weakling siblings, they will keep quiet or I’ll kill them
Right?”
“Mghh” Bane grunts something picking his unconscious brother up and carrying him into the grand tent
“Shiryu…” Fuyu still eyeing him
“What kind of dragon are you?”
“I don’t know ma’am,” he responds feeling intimidating after that unexplainable spell she did
“Ma’am?
Are you afraid of me?” the woman smiles pleased
“Inside Shiryu.” Aki pushes the boy into the empty tent
“Fuyu likes to be feared stop being so weak around my siblings”
“My fault, I didn’t anticipated to be caught up in fight against strong people without warning”
“Neither did I and I still whipped them, you should have used your dragonic power or at the very least your human magic”
Tap-tap-tap. Tap tap-tap tap. Tap. Tap. Tap
{--- .--. . -.}
Aki taps her foot down on the wooden floor inside the ten, the sound echoes back as a section of the floor opens revealing a downward staircase
Bane is already in front quietly carrying his brother down the stairs
“You will get a chance next time” Fuyu breathes down his neck
“I don’t think I want to fight you guys next time,”
“Fuyu is weak, don’t be fooled by her requiem,” Aki steps aside to let the other two go down
“If your want to be her don’t move and she can–”
“–Shut up!” Her sister snaps
“Don’t go talking about people’s requiems so openly”
“As the chief I can if I want to, and I already told you what Shiryu is so it’s only fair” haughtily responds Aki
“Then talk about your own Requiem, honourable chief” Fuyu snaps again in a disrespectful tone before nudging past everyone stomping away
The open floor above the staircase closes behind the group, leaving then in an underground winding corridor
….
“Where are going” Shiryu asks
“You are pathetic,” the chief takes her annoyance out him
“Excuse? I’m just asking a question…
We came into this tent and then into some passage underground,
No need to get so emotional after fighting your siblings
I would have thought you would be more composed chief Aki.”
“–Go back up”
“Huh?”
“Go back upstairs Shiryu,
I don’t feel like bringing a monster like you to my quarters,”
“But..”
“Go back up right now or I will do you worse than my siblings have done you”
(What’s gotten into her?)
“Ok, I’m leaving, but where do I stay for the night?”
“I don’t care,”
“What if people mistakenly attack me”
“Then you die now go away.”
