Re-Test pt. 2

"Twin Funnel" He smashed his hand into the gong.

A.N. (Before I continue cause I'm getting ahead of myself Thaleus helped Kip with his ki and he in turn helped Derek he taught them how to constantly stay in a meditative state causing their ki influx to skyrocket.)

*BOOM* the numbers on the board jumped at Derek's powerful blow. 20... 40... 60... 80... the numbers kept climbing until they finally stopped at 226.

"DAAAAMN" Kip's jaw practically hit the floor as both him and Thaleus traded glances before looking at Derek again. "I've been practicing that move for the last two weeks. It's the strongest single strike I have." Derek shrugged. "I still sometimes have issues fully utilizing my ki to cause the most damage."

Thaleus nodded his head and then leaned over and whispered in Derek's ear. Derek's eyes widened in shock. "I can do that?!"

"I'll show you the difference when it's my turn just make sure to circulate your ki into your eyes so you can watch."

Derek nodded his head and looked to Alice. "I guess it's my turn" she shrugged.

She slowly walked up to the gong she kept her eyes closed as she took a deep breath. As she released her breath sparks of lightning surrounded her body. She took another deep breath and the friends watched in awe as the lightning solidified around her body like armor. when she released her second breath her eyes opened and they were shining a bright electric blue while a gauntlet of lightning surrounded her right arm. The boys could now feel all their hairs standing on end from the dense electric power in the vicinity. They felt like if they walked too close to her the surrounding current around Alice would shock them. Alice hop skipped and slammed her first into the gong. as her fist connected her armor moved into her gauntlet causing the force from her hit to multiply. The group of friends looked up as the numbers above the gong shot up rapidly. "Daaaaamnnnn" Derek whistled when the numbers finally stopped on a whopping 348. "You obliterated our scores girl, how you gonna do is like that." he feigned pouting before chuckling. Alice's eyes sparkled in happiness. They had only been training for a couple weeks and already their scores were soaring.

Finally they all turned to Thaleus. They knew that out of all of them his progress had improved by leaps and bounds and they were all excited to see just how strong he had become. He walked up to the gong and started to circulate his Ki to start. He had almost reached a point where he could produce and aura of ki energy around him. His friends could feel as if the air around them had become slightly denser as if a cat or a small dog was sitting on their chests. Thaleus closed his eyes to shut out the rest of the world for a second. He want to put 100% of his effort into this one hit. He was standing just far enough away from the gong to use his Time Warp followed by his Fractured Twist Kick. However he thought of something new that might add just a tiny bit more power into his attack. He took one more deep breath and a barely noticeable smirk formed on his face as he whispered in succession. "Time Warp" as he warped toward the gong he leaned down and touched his leg "Ripple Touch" he increased his attack speed of his leg and finally "Fractured Twist Kick. His body left the ground as he flipped expertly towards the gong striking the gong at a speed that the others could barely follow at their level. When the number above the gong finally stopped not even Thaleus could do anything but stand there and gawk at the board for a few seconds. "What the hell man?!" Surprisingly Kip was the first to speak up, he had been the only one to see Thaleus in full action, but he didn't realize the difference between them until now. "I-I-I don't know man I just stacked a few of my moves together to get as much damage as possible into one hit." The number 833 slowly faded off the board. The four friends sat down still full of disbelief. He was already hitting at the strength level of a year two student and they'd been there for two weeks. "Man, I don't even think Johnny could pack that much damage behind his punch yet" Derek mused.
