   "OVERSHADOW", that is what was heard before the entire hall was thrown into a complete white-out. Everything was affected including the color of Mia's skin and hair. For a brief moment, Mia's expression showed that of one who was remorseful of her actions but it immediately switched back to the paleness it had before and she continued attacking Shiro.

   Her attacks had become sloppy. The intense color altering caused by Shiro's technique had a great effect on her ability to concentrate and differentiate the things in front of her and she found herself running into walls more often.

   "The real Mia would have figured this out by now" Shiro said in disappointment as he effortlessly evaded all her attacks. The battle stretched on and after a while, things started to regain thier normal appearance.

   The ominous figure in the dark made an observation. Even though he could see Shiro through a monitor, he could not feel a shred of his presence at all. The case was different a while ago in the sense that he could feel Shiro's presence all over the place.

   "This is new" he said to himself

   "None of the other sons of Shin were capable of this" he added

   "But the fact remains.."

   "He can't hurt h..."

   What displayed in the monitor baffled the ominous figure. Just when he thought he had a chance of victory, Shiro did the unexpected.

   A punch to the belly, a knee to the face, a vertical spinning kick to the back of the head, and a series of unseen attacks that hit very visible places. There was virtually no expectation that Shiro would even use such moves on Mia but what was more baffling was the fact that despite how anyone looked at it or whatever angle they saw it from, one would be sure that he was not holding back his strength.

   Shiro finally immobilized Mia. She had sustained a few major fractures and dislocations but it was anything that couldn't be fixed. He had tried to knock her unconscious but the mind control was too strong to let her fall. He knew that there was no way he lose the fight but worried that he might lose something more. He realized the chances Mia being mind controlled to kill herself how close the enemy was using it.

   "He is quite an interesting fella" the ominous figure commented with a smile.

   "Who knew he would be this quick to make a decision such a scenario" 

   "I can't say I didn't try my best, I really did" 

   "But some people are just built different"

   "I'll see you again, son of Shin"

   "And I'll be more prepared the next time we meet"

   As Mia's consciousness began to return to her, she felt pain so intense that she couldn't even scream.

   "Why does everything hurt so much?" she thought as she fell asleep.

   "It's cold" Mia said as she began to wake

   "But I don't feel the pain anymore" she said as she opened her eyes to see what was going on around her.

   "Am I okay?" She asked with a confused look on her face.

   "Why am I seeing two of miss Fubuki at the same time?" She wondered out loud

   "We're sisters" Naomi replied with a smile.

   "Now lay back for a little while longer" she said

   "We're almost done with the healing process and soon you'll be back to normal"

   "Ice healing, huh..." Mia muttered

   "So that's why I'm cold"

   "SHIRO!!" She called out loud and Shiro answered with a wave.

   "Just for the record" she say with shortness of breath.

   "This doesn't count" she said with a stern look on her face.

   "Sure thing" Shiro replied with a smile.

   "By the way..."

   "... where are we?" Mia asked, noticing that the little room she was in seemed to be moving.

   "It's an ambulance" Natsumi replied

   "Victor is driving"

   SHIN SEKAI SECRET: The 'Shin sekai' company is involved in almost all forms of business and is ranked highly in most of them. There is a rumour going around that the company is try to take over the world.

  • The lion is here

    Ellie watched the match play out with full concentration. The cameras were rolling, the stream was on, but there was no commentary, no intro, just total concentration.Waramaki motioned his hands and the tornado split into four, spinning around the arena randomly but with the ultimate aim of hitting Orie.At this point, Kojiro had expanded the stadium as wide as he could. This was the fourth expansion, the first was at the beginning of the match, the second was when Waramaki placed his elements all over the arena, and the third was when he saw the tornado. As soon as he saw the tornado split he knew exactly where things were going and expanded the stadium to its maximum capacity. He had initially thought that since Orie wasn't the type to throw around huge attacks, there would be no need for maximum expansion but as the match progressed, he realised that Waramaki would be throwing enough for two.A tornado is not something that can be evaded at the last minute, it has a pull and that

  • Man to man

    Those who have seen battle know this feeling. The feeling of having an anticipated moment finally arrive. Nothing can prepare one for such a feeling. No matter how much one prepares, no matter what one plans, no matter what one imagines, when the time comes, one would still be overtaken by that feeling.Orie and Waramaki stared at each other from across the arena and both of them uttered nothing. The stadium was loud and the crowd was roaring but between the two men in the arena, it was very quiet. With focused eyes, they watched each other, monitoring each breath, noticing each drop of sweat that fell from the face of the other."I was wrong to doubt your abilities" waramaki said, breaking the tension"I accept that you are strong and have every right to be a teacher of this school""And as an apology...""... I'll be sure to take you on with everything I have""I would also like to apologise" Orie replied with a bow"I let the hate of many distract me from the true intentions of the

  • When the ice queen laughs

    "well, Mr Addison" Ellie said as the camera faced Orie. "What are your thoughts on the current state of the match?" "I'm really not sure" Orie replied "To be honest, this is the first time I've seen Her like that so I don't actually know what to expect" "But if I had to take a guess..." "... I'd say I'm glad she wasn't like this in our match" Natsumi missed her first strike, and her second, and her third, and her fourth, and... all her strikes, she missed all of it. As it turns out, Kurobe had quite the reflex and was really good at evasion and keeping the distance. Every time Natsumi got close, he quickly evaded and put distance between them, pushing her back, attacking from blind spots, setting walls between them and a Whole lot of moves that prevented him from getting hit but that didn't stop his opponent from trying. With each passing second, Natsumi got closer to landing a hit on Kurobe. At first it was him feeling the little breeze as her fist fle

  • Cold hard truth

    Many things can anger a fighter. An opponent that toys with them, someone that just won't stay down and in many cases, a direct insult. But none of those things were happening to Kurobe, he was facing something far more annoying; an opponent that isn't paying attention to him. At first glance, it looked like Kurobe was dominating the match without giving his opponent any chance to counter, but there were many times since the beginning of the fight where Natsumi would have been able to strike back but did nothing instead. She had barely moved from where she was standing at the start and she was in deep thought. All Natsumi did from the beginning of the match was to fend off the incoming attacks while thinking about what Orie had said to her. "I have finally seen your true self" "I finally know you" She couldn't muster up the courage to ask him what he meant because she was too afraid of his answer. She was afraid of the truth. "If the real me is a monster...
