[attr="class","capsol"] As Sayha had sprung into action, Hiro got a better look at the opponent that he was facing down right now. The two of them would face each other down for the time being. Hiro looked at Orion, and Orion shared the glare back at the Monk. The two of them stayed unmoving for quite some time, though their staring at one another was intense. The beast man stretched out a little bit, and then shifted into a battle pose. "You travel from outside of your time, only to meddle in this one. Leave now, lest you be put to rest, permanently." He crouched down just a bit, as he lowered into his stance fully. "I shall challenge you to a battle, Monk. Perhaps we may see who the better one is?"
A smirk appeared across Hiro's face, as he started to hop around a little. "Sounds good to me." Cracking his knuckles, and his neck, he stood in his own stance. "Sayha!" Hiro called out. "I'll leave Captain Fairydust to you! Me and the big guy are gonna tango." The two stayed in their stances for a moment longer, until Orion launched himself forward. Hiro took note of the skill that Orion had begun to use. He started to wind up a punched, charged with [Megaton Impact], though Hiro saw right through that attack. Without wasting any time, Hiro ducked down and to the side, bringing his fist up into the central torso of the opponent. Orion reeled back and went for a full-arm swipe, but Hiro had already jumped up and into the air with Wyvern Kick. As the monster's arm had finished its swipe, Hiro landed on Orion's body, launching himself off, and skyward once more. The beast had made a rather simple more, in jumping to the side, though Hiro had predicted this outcome, which caused him to whip his leg around in a wide roundhouse arc, creating a projectile in the shape of a line.
The Monk then vanished, performing the second half of Warp Fang, and the projectile began to fly to the opponent, though he would be able to block it rather easily. Hiro's leg had planted into the back of Orion's head, knocking him forward a bit. Hiro landed on the ground, and whipped his leg around again, this time missing entirely. Orion let out a feral cry, his [Beastly Roar] skill, knocking Hiro back and away. Tumbling a few times, he regained his composure, just in time to see the monster rearing back and delivering a powerful straight punch in his direction. Without ample room to dodge, Hiro instead shouted. "Action!" The Monk's body had lost a lot of its color, activating Stunt Double, and the impact sent Hiro flying back. He impacted into the fruit stand, which was devoid of life by this point, as Zaffre and co. had moved far enough back to be out of danger. Standing up and out of the rubble of a stand that he had crashed into, Hiro brushed off his clothing. "Not bad, cat man." His eyes shifted up, as another smirk appeared on his face. "But you're gonna need to do better." Hiro's body ignited on fire once more.
Hellfire Drive provided Hiro with an incredibly burst of speed, which he very much needed in this confrontation. Eye of the Tiger had been activated as well, along with another skill that Hiro rarely used. Orion Delayed Blows, one that allowed him to attack the monster 9 times before the damage would stop stacking up. Hiro's body disappeared from sight, and fists began to pummel into Orion. The beast monk had no way of keeping up with every strike, as the initial speed boosts had been too powerful for the Genius to focus on. Hiro managed to get all 9 hits in, and then charged up another attack of his, Rising Dragon Uppercut. He reappeared behind the monster, and launched his fist up and into its back. As the attack collided, it provided damage suddenly, and an armor-breaking sound occurred, which had made Orion now weak to physical attacks. As the sound finished, Hiro activated the second half of Orion Delayed Blows, which amounted to a sudden, powerful burst of damage. Orion had wheeled back a bit from the immediate collisions, and staggered off to the side. Hiro, however, had landed on a place just a little ways away from the monster.
Orion began to change every so slightly at first, and then more gradually. He went down onto all fours, and his eyes seemed to have changed into something more feral. The monster roared, as multiple images began to overlay onto him. Three skills had now become active. [Rending Claws], [Piercing Horn], and [Spiked Down]. Images of claws overlayed into his hands, as did a horn on his head, and spikes began to form all along his back and pelt. The monster then brought about the image of a Hunting Dog next to him, as he used another skill, [Hunting Season]. "Perhaps NOW we can have the real fight!!" He roared, his voice much more feral. The dog launched forward, causing Hiro to dodge to the side again, though Orion was ready. His claws plummeted down onto Hiro, raking at him suddenly. Orion was about to bring about another swing, though Hiro had managed to dodge out of the way this time. Hiro's leg instinctively collided with the hunting dog, smacking it away from him. Landing a decent distance away from the newly-transformed Orion, Hiro could see the glowing tattoo on the monster's chest. His smirk had been removed by this point, but the monster's health had been dropped down rather significantly. Steeling himself for another round, Hiro raised up his arms, striking his stance once more.

 Once Sayha’s assault on the lion thing ceased, Hiro called out to her telling her to deal with the butterfly monster.
“Sleep, girl. You and your friend shall not get in our way,” Rhopalocera hissed.
“I slept well enough, thank you,” Sayha responded sarcastically. She readied her next attack, “<Swift Sakura Slash>.” Sayha dashed forward sliced forward with her scythe, ending up on the other side of the butterfly, “<Stealth Strike>.” Sayha’s aura turned blue, going slightly opaque as she hit.
Rhopalocera was not happy with the attacks and flew up high in the air. Sayha ran towards one of the buildings to jump up. However as she moved, she saw purple dust coming off the butterfly, it’s <Poison Dust> attack. Thankfully, she had moved out of the dust before any landed on her. However, once she was on top of the building, a burst of wind hit her, making her fly back and tumble. The butterfly’s <Wind Cutter> attack.
Sayha quickly stood up, and she was now eye-level with the monster… and the monster’s shadow was near her. With the point of her scythe, Sayha stabbed the shadow, “<Shadow Bind>.” Shadow tendrils flew forward binding the butterfly. Sayha jumped off the building with the blades of one end of the scythe grabbing the butterfly. Mid-air, Sayha used the momentum of her jump to throw the butterfly into the ground. Just before she landed, Sayha switched the scythe into dual kama mode. She landed nearly on top of the monster and slashed her two kama’s forward, “<Deadly Dance>.”
The butterfly flew back upwards, knocking Sayha back. Sayha was prepared and was able to land on her feet. However as she landed on her feet, dust covered her. She looked at her status, and she was silenced… Sayha reattached the dual kamas into scythe mode. Just because she was silenced didn’t mean she couldn’t attack.
Sayha ran forward at the butterfly, twirling the scythe on her right. She struck forward repeatedly at the butterfly. She was swirling the scythe from side to side and over her head and around her body. The attacks came from various places and degrees that the butterfly wasn’t able to anticipate any of the attacks. Despite not being able to use her abilities, she was able to do a decent portion of damage, no thanks to her poison as it seemed to be doing no damage to the butterfly.

[attr="class","capsol"] Hiro looked over for a moment, to see how Sayha was doing with her own fight. It seemed like she had been silenced or something, as Hiro looked over, but she was spinning the scythe around like a master. He smirked, and looked back to his own fight for now. The first of the hunting dogs seemed to have been gone for now, which was good for Hiro. Now, all he had to do was fight it out with Orion, and try to do as much damage as he could. If he could kill this guy, then he would be even better off than he had thought. However, he did keep in mind that this fight wasn't just for him alone. Sayha was already fighting something else, as well, and Hiro needed to either beat this guy up enough that he could swap right over to the Assassin's side and take the hits, or she would finish off the fairy thing before Hiro had a chance to swap over from Orion. That being the case, it seemed that their own combat had reached a small lull, as Orion glared at the Monk some. He wasn't all that fond of how Hiro had been fighting, especially using a move that Orion couldn't use. Hellfire Drive was a very particular skill, one that he needed to go to a place that did not yet exist to learn.
Their combat, just as quickly as it had paused, had started up once again. Hiro dodged to the side as Orion launched a claw to his head, which Hiro responded by kicking up and into his torso once more. The Monk flipped over to the side, vaulting away, because he knew that there would have been some kind of repercussion for not dodging away immediately. Hiro looked over at the lion man, watching as he had started to glow red. He knew that something was up, so he needed to apply the correct maneuvers to properly avoid the monster's advances now. [Transcending Bloodlust] had been used, as Orion let out another powerful bestial roar. Keeping Eye of the Tiger up, Hiro moved to dodge all the attacks, since he was the closest person to the monster at the moment. After about 10 seconds of a constant barrage, the glow seemed to disappear, and Orion's eyes glistened with rage. However, a grin appeared on his face, as he started to dash off towards Magistrate Zaffre and his consortium of guards. Hiro's eyes widened, as he knew what Orion was trying to do: He was trying to shift his rage onto Zaffre, and kill him. Grunting, Hiro dashed to follow the lion monster, activating Hellfire Drive once more, to hasten himself.
As Hiro got near to the beast, he used Megaton Impact to deliver a powerful axe kick, down and into the ground. Orion's head planted into the plaza floor, and a few seconds later, his body began to glow red again. Hiro positioned himself so that he was standing right in front of Orion once more, as the skill he had used began to activate and take effect once more. The Lion threw a flurry of claws at the Monk, as he shouted. "I WILL END YOU! I WILL DESTROY YOU ALL!!" Orion, now faster, was able to get in a few hits on Hiro's smaller frame, dealing some fairly decent damage. Given that Hiro had been able to keep up with a lot of his attacks up until this point, he began to feel the weariness of not having slept well, as well as not having had much food yet. He knew this would come back and bite him in the ass, but he was just too distraught to actually do much of any sleeping or eating. He relied almost entirely on his adrenaline to keep him awake and active now, though it didn't feel like it was doing much at the moment. After a few more seconds, and a few more hits, Orion had slowed down his assault, as his body began to return to a normal color. He did, too, look like he was slowing down, as that skill must have taken a good deal out of him. This was Hiro's time to strike.
Without thinking, Hiro activated Bullet Punch, planting what seemed like hundreds of fists into Orion's body. He followed up with a powerful and quick Somersault Kick, as well as activating Acupressure to pinpoint the weak spots on Orion. Using Incarnated Assault from there, Hiro had his clones as well as himself to target the points on the enemy's torso, increasing the amount of critical hits that he would have landed, as well as a few points on each of his legs, to induce an immobility debuff. Following that, Hiro deactivated Acupressure, and started to charge up a Fist of Boreas. Since Orion couldn't move for now, due to the debuff, Hiro planted his attack into the monster's jaw, in a rising uppercut style of attack. The powerful blast of cold air, followed by the impact of the attack, had caused Orion to get disoriented. This allowed Hiro an opportunity to grab onto the monster, and bring him up high into the air, using the skill Suplex. As Hiro and Orion flew up and into the air, they began to arc back down towards the ground. Spinning the monster rapidly, as well as himself, Hiro threw Orion back down and into the ground. As a finishing move, Hiro used Buddhist Palm to land directly onto Orion's body, and send a powerful shockwave throughout and around him.
Hiro vaulted back up and away, looking at the now-half HP'd opponent, who staggered to get back up. When Hiro went in to attack the monster again, he found that his attack didn't do anything. Some kind of a barrier, that didn't permit his health to drop below 50%? What was this? Orion, though, called out to Rhopalocera, his voice riddled with weariness. "Rhopalocera!" He shouted. "We leave!" He commanded the fairy to follow him, as he began to make an escape, through the portal.
"Oh, no you don't!!" Hiro shouted, following up with a fist up into the air. He very quickly found himself feeling more restricted than he was beforehand. As his legs locked and gave way underneath him, Hiro tumbled to the ground, noticing a paralysis debuff on himself. How did that get there? As he watched Orion escape towards a portal, he noticed the fairy that was heading behind him, though she stopped and faced the two Adventurers. Grunting, Hiro struggled to stand back up, and onto his feet. If he couldn't stop both of them, he'd at least stop one. Striking his battle stance once again, Hiro would begin to move in, in just another moment.

After the ten seconds had passed, Sayha was no longer silenced, and most of her cooldowns were now readily available. However, Hiro’s fight must have been going very well as the monster he had been fighting, Orion the lion monster, called for a retreat. He quickly escaped through a portal, and the butterfly Rhopalocera was guarding it. Sayha noticed that Orion had been at 50% health when he retread. Rhopalocera had not yet hit 50% but was close to hitting it as well. It must have been one of their abilities or passives.
Sayha had no intention of letting the butterfly escape with her friend, “<Quick Draw>,” Sayha dashed toward the monster, “<Sword Rain Flurry>.” Between her slice and stabs, the butterfly’s health hit 50%. So that she couldn’t run away, Sayha stabbed at her shadow, “<Shadow Bind>.” Shadow tendrils once again wrapped the butterfly monster, and Sayha jumped back out of the way.
After a few moments, the portal that had appeared closed in on itself. “I guess your friend got tired of waiting for you,” Sayha said to the butterfly monster.
“It matters not,” Rhopalocera hissed, “We may not have succeeded this time, but the next time you won’t be so lucky.”
The <Shadow Bind> faded, and the butterfly burst forth a blast of wind that was aimed at Sayha. Sayha quickly jumped out of the wind’s way, but it circled around her. It hit her from multiple directions, and there wasn’t much Sayha could do about it. She tried to force her way out with her scythe, but it was no use. After about five seconds, the winds faded, and Sayha was freed. Sayha didn’t move right away as she needed to regain her bearings as the wind had knocked her for a slight loop. She wasn’t worried though, she knew Hiro would be able to take care of the monster without her help for a few moments.

[attr="class","capsol"] Orion didn't wait for Rhopalocera, as the portal had vanished soon after he had left. The fairy, though, seemed to be willing to fight, no matter what. It had trapped Sayha into a vortex of wind, which seemed to be battering her from all around. Hiro looked over at her, his eyes widening. It pained him to see Sayha being attacked from all sides, and unable to do much of anything about it. He gritted his teeth, as he knew that there wasn't anything he could do, and his rage shifted over to the floating fairy just nearby. With the sudden locking of his joints here and there, he felt himself slowly standing up. Without realizing it, the flames from Hellfire Drive began to form all around the Monk. The flames grew rapidly, and engulfed him almost immediately. His eyes became burning orange orbs, Eye of the Tiger taking effect. He slowly lifted himself off the ground, and soon began to take a few staggered steps towards the butterfly. Whatever this monster was, whatever power it had, and whatever happened to Orion, none of that mattered now. This would end soon.
Hiro clenched his hand into a fist, as power began to surge all throughout it. He was, indeed, charging up a strike of Fist of Boreas, though the blindingly blue aura that it emitted shined a bit more brightly. He was also using Dragon Rising Uppercut, to add that debuff to the monster. After about 5 seconds, the Monk vanished, and the powerful blast of cold wind and fist knocked into the fairy from below, sending it upward a little ways. The monk recoiled back, and whipped his leg around to use Warp Fang another time. The roundhouse projectile had been formed, and the blast shot out towards the monster. Hiro disappeared again, this time up above the monster, finishing off the drop-kick after the projectile hit into the monster's body. Rebounding right back off, thanks to Hiro using Wyvern Kick, he flew back up and into the air once again, and came crashing back down, though his leg had also been infused with an Aura Kick. As the Monk slammed his foot down and onto the ground, colliding with the butterfly fairy, he felt the impact of the blow course throughout the street, causing a small indentation in the ground.
Hiro's arm flew up, and then came crashing back down, as he planted his fist into the monster, activating Tiger Echo Fist. Another shockwave had been sent around them, though this time, it dented the ground just a little bit more. Hiro stood up from the fairy, and vaulted backwards a few meters. He then began to charge up a small ball of energy in his cupped hands, and launched a blast of Aura Dragon Punch into the fairy. At this moment, as the attack connected, he staggered a bit, as both Hellfire Drive and Eye of the Tiger had been turned off. Hiro had used up just a bit too much MP in this fight, and, while he regretted it, he felt like Sayha could have just as easily ended the fight here. Hiro opened up his inventory quickly, and shuffled through, so he could grab one of his Greater MP Potions, and guzzled it down. As the MP returned quickly afterwards, he stood back up, ready to continue fighting if he needed to. Though, given the combo he had just provided, after lowering the monster's resistance to physical attacks, he felt that Sayha could have just as easily finished up from here. Nevertheless, he would be on standby, unless he was needed. From there, the confrontation in New Leaf Market would end, he hoped.

As Sayha was being pelted by the wind, she watched Hiro attack the butterfly monster Rhopalocera head-on. Sayha had fought along-side Hiro a few times now, but she never had a chance to actually watch him fight, and she had to admit it was quite impressive… for someone who wasn’t trained in martial arts. Though she guessed that he did have some sort of training courtesy of Elder Yamamoto back in Moon Dance Forest. Either way, Sayha was glad that he was on her side…
Hiro was in the middle of a fairly long combo of moves, and Sayha had no interest in getting in the middle of it. Instead, she stood back and waited for an opening. After a while, Hiro had jumped back… his MP was dangerously low. Sayha looked at the butterfly’s health, and it was extremely low as well. It was time for Sayha to strike… and to finish it.
Sayha began running towards the butterfly, “<Splitting Fang>.” The projection hit the monster-head on, and Sayha readied her next attack, “<Stealth Strike>.” Sayha’s aura turned blue, and she became translucent. She slashed at the monster just as it began to use one of its powder attacks. Sayha was able to move behind her to not get hit and attacked once again, “<Deadly Dance>.” She sliced her kamas in an x pattern across her back dealing a decent amount of damage. Two more attacks.
The butterfly turned, but Sayha tumbled behind her and stabbed yet again, “<Assassinate>. <Perfect Autopsy>.” As Sayha jumped back after the attack, she had expected it to explode in bubbles, but something else happened. Her shape remained for a moment, and a bust of wind exploded in all directions.
Sayha was knocked back from that attack, stunned. Her health, she now realized, was near 50% after the pounding she got from all of the butterfly’s attacks. Once the stun wore off, Sayha pushed herself off of her stomach and sat on her knees. She combined her two kama into scythe mode and used it to stand up. After taking a deep breath, she walked back over to Hiro, “I’m starting to think I need a vacation.”

[attr="class","capsol"] Hiro let out a deep breath, as Sayha had managed to finish off the monster just up ahead. His heart bounced back a bit, after she had been knocked back by the blast wave, but he calmed himself down when she had gotten back up. She had eventually made her way over to him, saying that she might need a vacation of sorts. Hiro chuckled at the sentiment, and nodded. "Yeah, that sounds kinda nice, really." His eyes drifted up and into the sky, wondering if there was anything else they needed to do for now. He didn't think that there was, though he couldn't have been sure. The Monk looked around himself a bit, just to make sure nothing else had suddenly appeared. As he made sure of the fact, he very quickly noticed the couple that Hiro and Sayha had looked through the eyes of. Lucas and Mira, just a little ways away, were dumbfounded, to say the least, though he could tell that they were happy. Lucas, after just another second, turned to Mira, and embraced her, to which she responded in kind. Hiro felt it was nice to see that such a couple would have made it out unscathed from all the hubbub, though the thought of them being engaged soon enough made him a bit happier. However, the thought occurred in his mind that Hiro had yet to work out the details of a possible relationship with Sayha, causing him to flush up just a tiny bit. He would have to talk with her about that, either now or later on. They had admitted liking one another, though things had been too hectic to discuss it quite yet.
Now was the time, since things would seem to be calming down for a little while here. Hiro looked over to Sayha, feeling the embarrassment on his face appearing before long. He lowered his voice, as he started to speak to her. "Hey, uhh... Sayha?" He began. He knew what he wanted to say, but the way he was going to say it was what caused him to get all embarrassed. "I know that this seems really out of left field, but... Would you... Go out on a date with me...?" Hiro's face flared up with blush, as he hadn't really expected himself to say that when he woke up today. He shook his head, trying to get the embarrassment out of his face for now. He needed to explain. "Look, I know we've talked a little about it, but we really didn't have much of a chance to really talk it over, y'know?" His embarrassment reached a peak, when he looked to the other side, scratching the back of his head. "So... I was thinking, like, maybe... Asking you to some lunch, or dinner, or something?" As Hiro threw the idea out to the Assassin, he wondered just how much he was blushing, and just how much from there he looked like a complete doof. Hopefully, nobody else would really notice, since he would've likely died from embarrassment if people started to call him out on his obviously rose-colored cheeks. He knew, though, that he might not get a reply right away, so he would let it be if Sayha had asked. Whether he received an answer or not was up in the air, though he felt that their time in Lune would very quickly come to an end.
