Ch. 28 - Demon's Paw

[I just started playing Skyrim today, lol. Hopefully, it is as good as what other people says.]

|-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_|

"I call this technique, Demon's Paw!" Jin said, making Po's eyes glow in excitement.

"Are you ready to learn, Po?" Jin proudly raised his head and asked.

"Y-yes!" Po stuttered as he felt like Jin was basked in light, further enhancing his image to Po.

"Then I am your Master!" Jin loudly declared almost making Po tear up.

"Master! Uhu, sniff!" Po wiped the tears that threaten to fall on his face.

"Don't cry." Jin said before throwing his handkerchief to Po, who catched it and blew his nose out.

Seeing that Po tried to give it back to him, Jin immediately refused him and said.

"You can keep it. Just take it as a token of being my first student." Jin smiled and said, he could see some snots on the handkerchief, there's no way he'll be taking it back with him.

"T-thanks!" Po scratched his head, as he placed the handkerchief to his small pocket. He'll surely place it as a display in his room and pray to it everyday.

"Good. Now I want you to watch closely, okay! I would not repeat it again!" Jin strictly ordered as Po opened his eyes wide, making sure that he catches everything Jin will show him.

Nodding his head in satisfaction, Jin assumed his Kazama-style stance as a large tree is in front of him.

There's a small distance between him and the tree, allowing him to step forward quickly while bending his upper body slightly forward. His left leg were stepped forward than the other.

His right arm is already cocked back and under just a second, his arm blurred and connected in the middle of the tree.

*Boom!*

A large booming sound occurs as the entire tree was uprooted from its soil and flew a few meters away, colliding with several more trees before coming into halt.

Meanwhile, Po just stared at this with his mouth open. In his mind, that technique is so cool that he could finally show off in front of his fellow Valley of Peace citizens and also to his dad!

"Before you learn that, I'll teach you my Kazama-style stance first, so you could execute the Demon's Paw technique."

[A/N: Demon's Paw is actually Jin's Technique in the Tekken series, so if you're curious on what it looks like, you can search it up on Google.]

Po nodded his head seriously stood up as he tries to imitate Jin's Kazama-style stance. There were some fee errors on his side which was fixed by Jin.

For the next few hours, Po finally managed to grasp the technique, however there would be some instances where he would break his knuckles or walk in a wrong foot and tripped himself.

However, despite all these hurdles, Po kept on insisting in mastering the technique, Jin could only admire his courage and determination, which is something he lacked because of relying on his template.

'Maybe I should learn more harder techniques, something that even Jin Kazama himself would be having trouble?' Thinking this to himself, Jin knew that in his current life, relying on his template system isn't bad, after all, there's a reason why he has it and only an idiot would think of not using it in excuse of 'Relying too much.'

He has the system and he'll use it to his heart's content.

As Jin was training Po, Crane landed near them and saw that Po was exhausted and his knuckles were bleeding profusely, but in his eyes, there is no pain except for determination.

"Jin, we have a situation in Plant Village. A bunch of thugs are harassing them as usual." Crane reported to him, making Po who was in the state of focused, excitedly said.

"Finally! It's time for some action!" Po raised his fist in the air.

"No, Po. You're staying here. You're exhausted and injured. Stay and heal yourself." Jin poured cold water in Po's head as he explained and pointed at Po's bleeding knuckles.

"Oh, this? This is nothing, haha..." Po noticed his knuckles and quickly tried to hide it behind his back and step forward. However, when he did so, his ankle suddenly bent sideways, making him trip on the ground while his ankle turned swollen.

"Oohh~, that's gotta hurt. Looks like you're staying, Po." Jin made the decision, much to Po's dejection, however he could understand Jin as he's just taking care of him, so he nodded his head and used his other feet to jump and make his way towards the infirmary.

"Let's go, Crane." Jin turned his head to Crane and they both nodded their heads in unison.

"Quick! Hurry up, we should get out of before those masters come." A large bear with a scar on the left side of his eye, ordered angrily, as the coyotes were flocking around the village, taking some of their valuables.

"Unfortunately for you, we have arrived." Hearing a voice not far away from them, the large bear with a scar turned to look at the source with a trembling body.

Seeing the full squad of Jin and the Furious Six, minus Po who was in the infirmary, the large bear started trembling more intensely while pushing some of his coyote subordinates as he made a decision in his mind.

'I'll take whatever I could take. With my subordinates holding them off, I would surely be able to escape without any problems.' Speaking in his mind, the large bear grabbed all the bags he could carry before dashing off while pushing the coyotes away from his way.

Raising an eyebrow, Jin chuckled to himself.

'Back in my world, humans used to be scared of bears but now, the bears are the one scared to a human. Oh, how the tables have turned.'

"Handle those lackeys, I'll change that bear." Giving out an order, Jin started running forward, with his eyes staying glued on the running bear.

All the lackeys that were in his way were used as stepping stones for him to increase his speed.

It didn't take long before Jin arrived near the bear.

"Surprise!" Jin grinned as he patted the bear's shoulders and when he finally got his attention to him, he waved his hand.

"Hiieeee!" Realizing that his fate is doomed, the bear tried to increase his pace, however due to his size, Jin would always catch up to him.

Just when the bear was about to shit himself, they came across a small rabbit that seems to be doing a set of workouts.

The bear's eyes gleamed in excitement as he rushed forward and tried to grab the rabbit in surprise.

Jin finally realized the plan of the bear that would definitely take the rabbit as hostage. Obviously, the situation would be troublesome to him, so he hastened his pace and tried to stop the bear

However, it was already too late as the bear was on the verge of grabbing the rabbit, who finally realized that a large bear has bad intentions to him.

Much to the bear and Jin's surprise, the rabbit suddenly jumped backward in a quick manner. The rabbit's speed was so fast that it turned into a blur.

'Fast! Is he also a master?' Jin thought to himself. Inside his heart, he was glad that the rabbit managed it avoid the bear's grab.

Deciding to finish the bear before he could cause more trouble for him, Jin grabbed the bear's back head and pushed him with his a strong force, plummeting the bear's face on the ground, finally finishing the bear.

Meanwhile, the rabbit arrived in front of Jin and excitedlu introduced himself.

"You must be the Dragon Warrior! Thank you for saving me! My name is Fluff!"

'He's a child? How did he even dodged the bear earlier? I didn't expect rabbits to be these fast, though?' Jin thought to himself before nodding his head at Fluff.

"You're welcome, Fluff. By the way, what are you doing here alone in the forests? Children like you should be with other kids their age. Where's you parents?" Jin asked, while wrapping a rope on the large bear.

"I'm training! I want to be a Kung Fu Master and join the Furious Six and save innocent people!" Fluff said with an innocent but excited expression.

"As for my parents? Uhmm, I don't have any parents. I was told that I was abandoned the moment I was born." Fluff then scratched his head and said. If someone were to hear him, they'd think of him as poor orphan and take pity on him, however from Fluff's expression, Jin could tell that Fluff doesn't have any idea what the role of parents are and their importance to a child.

"I see. Come with me, Fluff. I'll introduce you to my friends." Jin carried the large bear over his shoulder under the amazed eyes of Fluff before offering his hand for Fluff to take.

"Okay!" He answered.

***

As soon as they got back in the village, Jin could see that the chaos has already subsided and the coyotes were laying on the ground while some are tied in ropes.

Jin also saw Tigress and the Furious Six.

"Guys, I'm back." Jin greeted them while dropping the large bear's body on the ground.

"You got him. But, who's that?" Monkey stared at the large bear before his eyes darted towards Fluff and asked out loud, causing the rest of the Furious Six to also notice Fluff and ask the same question.

"This little pal here is Fluff. You can say he kinda helped me in catching the bear." Jin said, whole giving a wink at Fluff, who was nervously but excitedly staring at the Furious Five.

"H-hi. I-I'm Fluff." Fluff stepped forward and introduced himself.

"Hey, he kinds reminds me of someone..." Monkey said while seemingly thinking about something.

"Po. He reminds me of Po." Mantis answered.
