22 A Moment Please

Tokyo, Japan,

Shibuya Ward,

Samuel POV,

Samuel chuckled at Rin, "It's all good." He slowly got to his feet making the girl stare at him with wide eyes, wasn't he just gravely wounded?!

"It's all ....." Samuel trailed off looking in the direction Gun had left... it was alright,....

...

....

...

....Like hell it was alright!

He couldn't do anything, Rin was there. Taking his hand off the girl's head, Samuel cracked his knuckles and moved his arms around for a few moments, then he cracked his neck all this time wearing an empty expression on his face, albeit the veins popping out on his forehead couldn't be hidden at all. Samuel felt as if his body was on fire.

Samuel.... wasn't angry..... no he shouldn't have been angry at something like a loss, losses are a part of life after all.... No, that was a lie. He couldn't accept this outcome at all. Looking at Rin, "You can walk the rest of the way, I'll head to the hospital. Let what happened be our little secret." He smiled ..cheekily at her and the little girl nodded in a dazed stupor.... Wasn't he badly injured?.....Was he just acting like he was hurt? No, that couldn't be it.... but then, where were the wounds?

As these questions entered her mind, Samuel had already shot off running in the opposite direction at speeds a normal person would be shocked to see..... Rin looked in his direction for a few moments before silently albeit with some difficulty, picking up the cake they had bought and started walking towards home which was, in all honesty, not really far.

Hell it would be completely fine if she walked to school by herself just her parents refused to let her do so. One thing that she noticed as she walked away was that.... "Oh...no."

Samuel's gloves were on the ground.

Tokyo, Japan,

Shibuya Ward,

Gun POV,

Gun walked through the streets at a slow, relaxed pace, smoking as he did. He was getting quite a few looks from the passing ladies considering he wore nothing except a coat draped over his shoulders, his well built chest was open for the world to see.

"That ....kid." Gun mumbled thoughtfully looking at the sky as he blew out some smoke, that kid was a monster. Copying martial arts and somehow improving in the physical department mid fight, if that kid was in Korea, with that calm demeanour, Gun would have named Samuel his successor in a small time.

Except, he forgot to account for one thing, "....Wait..... accounts of violence?" He stopped in place, someone that calm and docile couldn't possibly have such a history... What exactly was the case here?

The kid appeared honourable and truthful, calm, composed yet wild, why and how did someone like that have such a reputation?

Before he could linger on his thoughts any longer, a shadow fell over him making him quickly turn around annoyed yet before he could complete his movement, he felt something literally bore a hole near his shoulder making him jump away with wide eyes..... How did he not notice? Had he been stabbed?

"You thought we were done?!" Samuel asked him... no, he was grinning at Gun, the fingers of his hand bloody, the blood was naturally Gun's. Gun looked at Samuel's unsightly hands with slightly wide eyes, "You were...holding back?!" He roared with a wide grin on his face, he was overjoyed by this development even as he felt warm blood trickle down his back.

"No shit, fuckface." With those words Samuel was upon him, his fist pulled back with a wide grin plastered on his face, eyes carrying a hint of anger and pleasure. This time even if Gun punched him in the face he headbutted the punch itself before kneeing him in the gut, at the same time punching him from the right side.

"I lost to this!" Ignoring the punch to his guts, seeing as it would heal regardless, he ignored the pain and wrapped his hands around Gun's head, kneeing him in the face, this time carrying much more force than before making Gun cough out but not back down, "Good!" He got into the Kyokushin stance, hitting Samuel straight in the chest, blowing the teenager away.

"You're like a damn animal." Gun mumbled as a long gash formed across his chest, just as he was blown away Samuel had slashed at him with his right hand causing a deep wound, one that would surely leave a scar. "I don't mind being one at all." Samuel replied, not having lost his grin despite coughing out blood.

Gun moved forward this time, aiming to punch Samuel straight in the face and indeed the punch connected bending Samuel backwards to an unnatural degree but as that happened, the teenager slashed upwards gouging out the man's eye ball with a grin before falling back on his hands, spinning around delivering a several kicks straight to Gun's face.

At this point, Gun seemed to be grinning widely, his wounds increasing with each single exchange. He employed the 3 inch punch once again but this time found that his arm had been slashed, a straight cut running up to his shoulders.

Uechi Ryu's Auto Counter.

Samuel stepped backwards and using his back foot as a fulcrum, he spun around generating considerable momentum before slamming the other foot straight into Gun's face... or rather Gun put up his only usable hand barely blocking the hit though even then, he was blown away.

Capoeira's Armada.

Samuel looked at Gun who was thrown to a wall, cracking it in the process and licked the blood on his hands, a smile on his face, "Get up, will you? I'm nowhere near done." He walked forward ripping out the fence from one of the walls and then folding it by force straightening into a makeshift blunt weapon/rod.

"You think that was enough~?" He asked with a smile, dragging the improvised metal rod on the ground, this..... this was exactly what he was trying to prevent Rin from seeing.

"What even... are you?" Gun asked, trying to stand up, which was now proving to be quite the task considering one of his arms was broken while the other had a deep gash in it. "Ask yourself that." Samuel replied driving the rod into his shoulder and then placing his foot near the stab wound itself.

"Good luck." Samuel licked his lips, somewhat crazed as he kicked at the rod ripping it out vertically upwards as blood sprayed everywhere, the arm now hung limp half of it appearing as if it was sawed off flesh hanging out.

"What the fuck?!" Gun kicked the grinning Samuel away with his feet, he hadn't fought someone like this since...Goo, this man was fucking insane! Gun was wrong, this 'animal' wasn't fit to be his successor at all!

"Consider that payback." Samuel gave him a close eyed smile, blood splattered on his face.

Gun expected him to keep going but.... Samuel stopped in place, no he froze in place..... "...I....again." He muttered to himself, Gun was wincing in pain and too busy trying to leave the place. He.... had given up, fighting to the death wasn't his goal after all..... This was a test, a test Samuel failed badly.

Before leaving though, he took one last look at Samuel who wasn't even paying attention to him but rather looking at his hands.

No patience I swear.....
