Ichishi was still looking at the fused arm and crystalias when all of a sudden his shadow ran up to him "Pay attention." His shadow said as it punched Ichishi in the face. The chibazu claws, the fused arm and crystalias, was suddenly covered in fire and electricity. "Cool." Ichishi said as he tapped his shadow on the head and electrified and burned his shadow at the same time. His shadow felt the pain and fell onto the ground, then got back up as he activated version 1 of his shadow chibazu and a sword was in his hand. Ichishi's claws started to glow and turned into a katana "New sword, ninja sword, nice." Ichishi said as a storm appeared as he lifted up the point of the katana to the sky and it then started to rain ember above Ichishi. He ran and his sword pointed at the shadow and the ember flew directly at the shadow. "Wow, weather control, raining ember." Ichishi said as lightning hit the shadow but the ember was gone. He ran up to the shadow as it was falling from the attacks and then slashed it. "So," Ichishi said as his shadow started to fall unconcious "Who's the one who's now paying attention now." His shadow then lost conciousness and was on the ground, unconcious.

[kyutu]

Kyutu fell from the bolder and landed on the ground. the shaow walked up to kyutu and kicked him over. "i said i never give up". the shadow apperd shocked that kyutu was still awake. "And when i say something". kyutu punched his shadow into the air. "I MEAN IT". the shadow used high-speed movement a kicked kyutu into the air then used high speed movement agine to hit him down then apeerd an hit kyutu away befour he crashed. kyutu got up and dashed and tryed to punch but his shadow parryed and hit him down. then kyutu tryed for a slide kick but his shadow jumped and smashed kyutu through some layers of crust. "I can't beleve my shadows this strong o well i guess i'll just pump up to the next level". kyutu got out of the hole and tryed to sstrike his shadow but it parryed and tryed for a low sweep but kyutu jumped it and tryed to hit the shadow but it side steped and struck kyutu it to the air. "Am i relly going to lose this battle". the shadow jumped and hit kyutu even highed into the air then struck kyutu into a downward possetion and held him like that started swerling and plowed kyutu into the ground. kyutu got up yet some what unhumanly. "I told you I DON'T GIVE UP AND I WON'T LOSE NO MATTER WHAT". kyutu dashed at his shadow and comboed it into the air. then jumped and smashed it into the ground. "AHH the pain". kyutu fell and got up slowly then his shadow got up and got in front of kyutu and punched but kyutu grabed his hand and punched his shadow into the ground kicked it up slaped it then kneled it in the stumach and punched it away."this power i fell stronger than i did befour come on take your best shot". his shadow used high speed movement from behind and punched kyutu forward then apperd in front and hit him back then did it agine 3 times and smashed kyutu into a bolder. "I hate that trick". kyutu got off the bolder and hit his shadow into the air and then smahed it down with all his force and the shadow made a deep deep hole. "That should have finished it". but then the shadow got up

Seig was laying down an he then began to think about signiture moves and some of the ones hes seen in here with everyone, he then dicided to make one of his own so he called out his sword and consentrated the fire to hug the blade as tight a possable. he then called over to his shadow and his shadow attack viciously Seig blocked and dodged untill he saw an opening and he then parryed the next attack and had the flame hug the blade again and slashed across the opening and then spun behind his shadow and slashed again and spun around again and slashed, He reapeted this untill there was a blazing star around his shadow. He then dicided that the move took to long so he tried to think of a new one, he went threw ideas in his head and tried a differant one this time when he found an opening used the reverse end of the blade to knock him in the air he then jumped and followed him up and then used his shadow to jump higher and then made his flame huge and then on his way down he began to spin verticaly and very rapid he the cut threw his shadow and set him ablaze. he then rested for a wile to regain streagth and think. after a few hours of rest he got up again and began to fight his shadow this time his shadow wasen't leting up or leaving any holes so Seig decided to make his own and made his fire go longways to force his shadow to block or be burned, his shadow took the bait and blocked the fire, Seig then punched him hard in the gut and then jumped back and shoved the blade hard into the ground and made the fire grow under ground and it then ripped out of the ground and roared towred the shadow and engulfed him in pitch black flames, and as the flames subsided the shadow was covered in easily 3rd degree burns and other intense injures. Seig fell to a knee due to the magic used in the three attacks. so he sat down and ate some food after that. He then driffted to sleep and fell into a dream, he stood up and looked around but there was nothing but complete darkness, and then a huge pair of red eyes apeared in front of him and then a deap demonic voice said " Hello, I am the one who rules over these six demons, the ones in your arm. I am the king of them, I am death, I am Thanatos the ultimate legion of chaos." Seig immediatly woke up huffing and puffing, he then said " Wow so much power and i haven't even seen it yet this Thanatos is increadable.

Val was starting to become tired of being beaten by his clone; it was time to turn the tables. He tried again to truly wrap his mind around the concept of being a samurai; It means loyalty, honor, benevolence, respect, courage... Courage!
He knew now that what his clone said was true; his fear held him back. He had to let it all go.

He launched himself at his foe, slashing horizontally to start. The clone blocked his sword, spun around and kicked him in the stomach. As Val stumbled, it thrust its blade toward his chest.
"Perfect," muttered Val. He was close enough.
He ducked down, the edge of the katana cutting his cheek barely. He leaped forward, closing the distance between him and his counterpart; he dropped his sword and grabbed its arms with his own.
"Now burn!" Val opened his mouth, and a continuous stream of blazing fire was exhaled from his lungs, searing the clone until it seemed that there would be nothing left of it.

He inhaled to withdraw the flames, and looked anxiously to see the damage he had done.
But it was not as he had hoped. A small, purple shield had emerged in front of the clone's face: a Chaos shield. It had completely blocked his attack.

The clone grinned and headbutt Val in the face, consequently throwing him off his feet due to the Shield's power. He landed with a crash and shouted, "That should've destroyed you!"

His opponent responded, "It would have, so I must congratulate you; that was very impressive! You demonstrated a good deal of bravery just then, nearly getting yourself killed to get the hit you needed. However..."

It picked up Val's katana and jeered,"It was totally foolish."

Chris woke up the next day fully recharged "Ah lets go training time again" he said the shadow guy reforming infront of him "finally" the shadow said yawning. Chris got up dusting himself off and summoned his keyblade "You ready?" chris asked the shadow who summoned his keyblade "as ready as i'll ever be" the shadow said running at chris who did the same

[sparks]

Ezekkiel continued. "Version two, Guardian Dolphin!", he yelled, and the realm flooded up to neck level with water. The bow vanished, and in its place appeared Dolphin Iris, the sea goddess. The majestic dolphin had control over waves, and manipulated them to plunge the shadow into water. As he sunk, Iris swallowed her into her body. The shadow was trapped, and couldn't get out with struggling.

[nanashi]

Ichishi ate some more food and drank water while he waited for his shadow to wake up "Look at everyone fight, they're good." Ichishi said as he watched each person fight thier shadow. Just then, Ichishi shadow was regaining conciousness and then stood up "I'm ready to fight again, and this time You'll be the one unconcious." The shadow said activating version one of chibazu and was now carrying a sword. Ichishi's fused arm was still activated so he decided to use his katana. Both Ichishi and his shadow ran up to eachother and collided with each slash, managing to land hits as well. Ichishi then used the katana to make it rain ember on the shadow but the shadow used the sword to send electric waves. "I think I'll call all my swords katanas, even if I only have two srms with a sword version. Katana really sounds better the a sword." Ichishi said as he stopped the ember and block the electric waves with lightning. Then Ichishi was suddenly attacked by a black dragon. "He used a shadow Chibazu to attack when the lightning was in front of me." Ichishi said as he slipped into unconciousness. "Told you it was your turn, and now I can enjoy some food." The shadow said as it walked up to Ichishi and then took some food near him and started eating as it watched the shadows fight the real people.

[kyutu]

as soon as his shadow got up kyutu turned around. "You're still alive, that should of killed you". the shadow just stood their and laghed "HeHeHeHaHaHaHAHAHA". then the shadow grew gient agine. "crud i remember this". kyutu got picked up and started getting smouthered. "No i'm not gona die this way". kyutu tryed to get free as much as he could but failed and then the shadow jump two strories and smashed kyutu down. kyutu got up. "no i'm not gona lose". kyutu dashed and ran up the shadow leg. then the shadow tryed kicking but kyutu hang on amd then ran more up tile he got to the for head then with his fire whips the hit the forehead point blank. the shadow growled in pain and shrank a little. "great now i have to keep doing that until he gets normal size... i'm doomed". The shadow hit kyutu and smashed him though a wall. "i'll fell that tomaro, and the next day and the next". kyutu got up. "hm now to finsh this". kyutu ran up the shadow agine but this time the shadow hit him off.then kyutu thought "i can't do that any more o boy this just got 10x harder". kyutu tryed agine but got hit off agine. "20x, what can i do"

[DStroyU]

After several more days of training, Val realized that they only had one more day before their time in the Gate was up.
There was little left to do; he could finally match his shadow, but he had yet to defeat it. He had to do it today.

After a hearty breakfast, he summoned his clone to meet him in the normal place. Upon arrival, they agreed that neither of them would hold back.
"This is it. If I can't defeat you now, then I will never hope to defeat the Chess or the dragons. Prepare yourself!"
The clone lifted his blade in defense, and the two began to clash.

Val breathed a quick blast of fire, which the clone deflected with a shield. Using the opportunity, he teleported behind his foe, and fired a Photon Flash toward his back. It missed however; the clone swung around and struck Val in the jaw, sending him crashing into the ground. The shadow quickly dashed forth and plunged his sword into the ground, but Val had activated his Boost Bracelet, giving him enough speed to avoid the attack.
He recovered, slashing his sword horizontally only to be blocked by his opponent's own blade. He was met blow for blow, once again unable to land a hit. Even as he tried more tricky maneuvers such as kicking sand, faking attacks, and stringing together combos, he could not hit the clone.

Val began to pant loudly. He summoned his guardian, Kuromoto. The clone made the same move, bringing forth a dark version of the beast. The two titans clashed, also meeting each other hit for hit. Val's guardian attempted to wrap up the opponents in chains, but the dark duplicate spit bubbles which blocked them from damage.

Seeing as how he was running out of options, Val decided, "It's time for fusion! Let's go, Kuro!"
The beast reluctantly responded, "Right!"
In a flash of green light, Val fused with his guardian to achieve his higher powers, and in turn, the clone did the same.

But suddenly, something felt wrong. Val's eyes closed, and reopened with a furious glare, a rage unseen before. The shadow could only mutter, "Oh no," before it all went to hell. It was lucky that their training spot was so distant from the others; otherwise, it could've gotten worse...

The berserked Val attacked his clone with a vengeance, furiously slashing the air, sending dozens of glowing arcs his way. The arcs were dodged, and flew past to cut down several of the old stone pillars in the area. Clone Val responded by attacking in kind, launching several more Gigaslashes, which were met in midair by the berserker's.

Constantly, the two were teleporting between shadows, including each other's. They moved faster than the blink of an eye, never giving the other a chance to score a hit. But the berserked Val had far more energy than the clone, who was getting tired fast. However, the end would not come for a long time. The area in which they fought was almost completely annihilated; no structure was left standing.

Finally, it happened. Berserked Val summoned thousands of plants which spread and covered the field. Vines shot up from the ground, capturing the shadow clone by the ankle; it had lost its ability to use Shadow Immunity, and it could at last be touched. Val remorselessly descended upon the clone, rending it in two with one mighty slash. It was over.

Val came back to his senses, the outraged look in his eye gone, and his fusion undone. Completely exhausted, he fell onto the ground with a thud.

((I did a coin flip myself to determine if I went berserk, and it ended up on tails. Because this is only a training thread, I won't reset my Rage Points.))

[kyutu]

the shadows hand neerly squwashed kyutu but he douged. "if it keeps going like this i'll be cream custerd in no time". kyutu barly douged anougher hand. "i can't keep doing this i'll get creamed ... got it". kyutu ducked a swipe and sent his whips out and jumped on them ad started runing up them to the shadows head. then the shadow tryed to knock him off but he used his whips to block. kyutu got to the head and jumped off his whips and struck it with his hardest punch. the shadow shrank a little. "this got 3x easyer". then the shadow tryed to smash him...

the shadow landed his hand on kyutu.hehehehahaha". then the shadows hand started geting pushed up. kyutu was holding the hand up. "What the hell you laughing about i'm not gona die like that". kyutu ran up the hand and befour the shadow could respond he hit him in the forhead even stronger than last time by pulling some ligaments. this blow made the shadow shrink to normal size. " I'm gona kill you now" kyutu dashed and punched the shadow through the wall. the shadow got up and this time mae him self bulkyer. "you could not get any weirder".

the shadow dashed and hit kyutu with a gient punch though 3 trees, a wall and into the side of a mountain.kyutu got out and a ball of flames started spining in his hand and and it spun faster and faster and guess what faster. " this move is called flameing spiral it will incenerate you" .kyutu dashed and grabed the shadow. "time to finsh this". kyutu stuck his hand through the shadow and ii disapated. kyutu sighed a sign a releaf. " few finaly done". kyutu fell on the ground and fanted/sleeped

[nanashi]

Ichishi woke up while the shadow was eating and that meant there was a bit of time to think "Okay," Ichishi said to himself, thinking a something that would give him a chance to get up without the shadow noticing a thing "Got it." Ichishi focused his magical power into the ground and it then surounded the shadow as Ichishi got up. "That was a good move, thinking of a plan to get up without me noticing and attacking immediatley, so you used up the training you had to master elements without any arm, so you used the earth element and surounded me with the earth giving you a chance to get up without me causing any more damage to you body if I notice." The shadow said as the earth covered its whole body then started to close on it. "I have a few good ideas when I use my head, but they don't work all the time, I'm not a clever stratigest." Ichishi said as he crushed the shadow and let the earth crumble onto the ground. The shadow was flat on the ground, but it then got up and activated version 2 of Chibazu, and then a shadow chibazu appeared. "So you decided to use a guardian, let's see if I can beat that." Ichishi said as he activated his chibazu and claws of tiger fusing them again "Let's see what happens, version 2." Then the fused arm glowed and a girl appeared facing Ichishi "You got my name right back then." The girl said. "Wait, so you're name really is Maylo." Ichishi said suprised that he met with her again. "Yup, and now I'll take care of that shadow." Maylo said as she turned around and a hug wave of fire appeared and hit the shadow and the chibazu shadow. Ichishi was amazed she took them out so fast, and this time the shadow was gone as the shadow chibazu went away and so did Maylo. "Wow," Ichishi said in a very suprised voice "She finished them off like it was nothing, glad that she's on my side." Ichishi then fell asleep quickly after he had said that, exhausted from everything that had happened during his time in the training gate.

[monkeykid71]

Chris and his shadow were strill going at it but the shadow stopped jumping back "Whats wrong?" Chris asked looking at the shadow. "Your training is almost over you should take these last couple days to rest up for the war games got it" the shadow said folding his arms "Ya ya I got it I need a break anyways" Chris said laying down in a a nearby patch of grass grabbing some water.

[sparks]

Ezekkiel had the shadow, but he opened its mouth and jumped out, gasping for air. He headed straight for the real Ez, and with a sword firmly in front of him. Ezekkiel thought that himself would come without strategy, but he came head first. Ezekkiel wasn't prepared for this, and had to catch the blade in between his hands. The gloves were supportive, but his hands still bled from the awesome impact.

He pushed the blade back. It was version one of his purity blade, the vary weapon, able to copy any weapon the opponent has limited to B rank. "How did you do that? So now I know what version one turned out to be...", said Ez. Maybe I can learn moves from this guy...

The man pulled out a gun... with a sword attched to the top. It was version 4. He ran at ezekkiel sticking the gun infront of him. Ezekkiel didn't know if he would shoot, or strike. Out of panic, he withdrew every weapon and summoned his shiel of purity, which lasted long enough to protect him. Summoning all those arm tired him out, and his clone as well. They both dropped to they're knees.

[Zecarius]

Alan looked down at the gate. "And time should be up... now." Just as he spoke the last word, the gate glowed, and dispensed all of the people back on the ground inside the base. The man grinned, before turning. "Well, you've completed the training without dying. That's good to know. Now get ready; the War Games will start tomorrow." And with that, the man walked off.
