"He doesn't look like much," said the nerd who was apart of Ren's group.
"You're also in the equation," said Adrian with tear fill eyes.
The nerd quickly said, "Shut up!"
He adjust his glasses on his face and then continued. "But obviously.. the real monster here is Ren."
"So," inquired Ren while staring at Ken, "you're the that beat up my friend. When he came back, we could see that he got a good ass whopping. Why?"
"Why?" Ken asked. "Because he hangs out with freaks, and that makes him a freak. And I hate freaks. I was just trying to be his first and only father figure."
"Haha! I like your personality," said Ren.
"Freaks, huh?" Ren inquired. He took another two steps forward - towards Ken - while continually peering at him. "So am I a freak?"
"I don't know," said Ken calmly. "I would have to find out."
Ren took another two steps forth and he continued to talk. "But I'm hanging out with freaks. Am I not?"
"Ouch!" The nerd exclaimed.
"So doesn't that make me a freak?" Ren said. He took another two steps forward. "Or are you a he-"
Ren was suddenly cut of by Ken, who sent a punch at his face.
"(You're no freak.)" Ken said in his mind. "(I can sense it. He has the potential to become something greater than me. Is he.. huh?)"
"You're too slow," said Ren while holding Ken's right hand with his right hand.
"Try again," said Ren after he tossed Ken's arm into the air. He turned around and delivered a clean back kick to Ken's gut. "But this time, but in a little more speed and agility, you cheating fuck!"
"(This guy is releasing some kind of tense and dangerous aura.)" Ren said. "(Could he be..)"
Ken went skid back while holding his clothing in his left hand and gripping his gut with his right. "(Is he..)"
"(.. a king..?)"
"(.. a monster?)"
"(Like me!?)" Ken said enraged with the thought of having some being on or above the level of his own.
"(Like me..?)" Ren said calmly.
Ken took one step forward. He digged his right leg into the floor and crouched a bit. He pulled back his arms on his left side with the items in his hands, and began to sprint towards Ren.
Ken bulleted towards Ren at unseen speed.
"Huh?" Ren immediately inquiry, seeing Ken's quick movements. "His face!"
"(Was he holding back his true capabilities before?) Ren wondered.
When Ken was at a suitable distance from Ren, he tossed his clothing at his face. The items then block Ren's sight.
"You're an aggressive one, aren't you?" Ren inquired.
From behind the clothing - what was airborne - a punch came flying towards Ren's face once again.
After the clothing had fell from the air to the floor, the aftermath of the attack thrown at Ren's face was shown.
Ken's punch had not connected to Ren's face, or anything at all. Instead, the punch was beside Ren's head in his left, visual showing that he had foreseen the punch.
On the other hand, Ren has also thrown a punch at Ken, which definitely hit. It was connected squarely on Ken's jaw.
"(No.)" Ren said.
"(Yep!)" Ken groaned.
Ken retreated from the fight for a few seconds by hopping backwards.
As he hopped back, he said in his mind, "(He has the potential to become a king!)"
"(His no monster.)" Ren said in his mind. (But he has the potential to become one.)"
Ken charged at his opponent once again, with the anger and fear of being outmatched by the competitor infront of him. He felt absolutely and genuine hatred burning beneath his flesh and within his soul. He might just be a real hater though.
"Imma mess you up!" Ken exclaimed while charging at his opponent with enraged heart. "And when I'm done with you, I'm gonna fuck up your freaking, freaky friends!"
Ken clenched his hand tightly. With his rage gathered within his fist, he tossed a mighty punch at Ren.
Ren - who was unfazed by those who are below his rank - stood his ground. He stared at Ken - who was preparing his attack - daring him to touch him.
"Who do you think you are bastard?!" Ken inquired. "Some fucking God!?"
Ren said, "No."
When the punch came, Ren professional evade to the left. "That is way above my personal ranking."
"I'm a monster," said Ren while clenching his right fist." That's what everyone that has faced my has ranked my strength."
"So, Ken?" Ren inquired. "Can you handle I, a beast ranked by the Gems?"
Ren tossed a mighty punch - which avoid of any emotions - at Ken.
"They say you shouldn't make emotions take over your fist in a fight, Ken," said Ren. "That's why you shall lose!"
Ren then let out a sigh and said, "*Sigh* Now, let's finish this boring fight. It wasn't even a fight to begin with with all these emotions. It has no hype to it at all!"
Ren tossed a jab with his left hand at Ken's nose, making him stagger back.
Ken regained his footing almost instantly and said, "Who.."
He rolled his right fist and tossed it at lightning speed at Ren's face. ".. ASK!?"
Ren barely dodged the attack. With a frighten face, he wondered, "(His even faster?!)"
Ken tossed his left hand at Ren with a even faster speed.
Ren quickly reacted but sustained a few damage. The attack flew past his fast, but the the speed it was going at left him a cut on his cheek.
"(His almost as fast as a bullet!)" Ren said.
"What you wanted this fight to be an epic moment where the two of us meet. But you fell like it's ruined?" Ken inquired.
"(How does he know that?)" Ren wondered. "(Wait..?)"
"(Do I and him.. think the same?!)" Ren's face was diverse from his previous one. His face was dull with no emotion, but now it showed two types of emotions: shock and fear!
Ken rolled his left and tossed another fist at Ren's face.
"(Wait..)" Ren thought. "(Did I let my emotions take over the fight?)
Ren blocked Ken's attack with his palm and dragged him towards himself.
"(Yeah, I did.)" Ren said. "(That's why I couldn't sense the future where I win, but where I lose.)"
Ren slapped Ken on his cheek sending him staggering to his left. "(I made a promise to myself; that I won't lose to anyone ever again. Even if it was deity I was up against!)"
"Yeah, I thought this encounter was meant to show how strong we really were," said Ren. "But now, I'm a bit egotistical. I think it was meant to show.."
Ren launched a mighty punch at Ken with his left hand.".. how strong I really was."
"*Cough, Cough* Yeah right, fucker," said Ken while coughing out blood. "Shut up about your ideology. I'll either kill you right now or in the tournament."
Yeah, sure," said Ren while turning his back to Ken. "Come in guys. I've avenged you, Adrian."
Ren inquired, "Huh?"
Ken was right behind. He was holding out a punch at him.
"*Sigh* (This is not how you fight.)" Ren said. "(You need to avoid yourself of all emotions. If you let your emotions loss, they will control your actions.)"
Ren quickly turned around and delivered a back hand slap to Ken's face. "(And you want to control your actions, don't you.. Ren?)"
"AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!" Ken yelled. He charged at Ren with another punch ready. He flung the attack at Ren's gut.
"(This guy.. obviously doesn't know how to fight Ren. He is worthless. He is beneath you. He is nothing!!)" Ren said. He tossed a straight punch from kyokushin karate; while in the posture of a kyokushin karate fighter.
With that mighty attack that connected with the opponents abdomen, Ken went flying backwards. He was now defeated. He laid lifeless on the floor.
"(But a rocket ship, what was born on earth, still surpassed the sky. Everyone has their speciality.)"
"You'll never beat me with the way you fight, Ken," said Ren.
While laying down lifeless on the floor, Ken groaned out a few words that were weak and barely above whispering level. "I'll just get strong, and then I'll beat you, asshole."
"Hmph!" Ren scoffed. "It's like saying the clouds can exit the earth's atmosphere. Foolishness!"
"Dude," said Ken,"I didn't ask about your stupid ideology."
Ren stared at Ken for some brief moments, and then began to walk away from the scene.
"Let's go," said Ren.
"Huh?" Adrian inquired.
"Ah, yeah," said the nerd. "Okay."
Ren's companies quickly followed right behind.
Suddenly, Ren stopped in his tracks.
"What is it?" The nerd inquired.
Ren turned around, facing where Ken lays. He delivered a few words to Ken.
A supreme and dark aura surrounded Ren as he said, "Just take note of this. You are already dead."
