Chapter 9 - 3: Game

The tall man had a vicious smile on his face as his feet dug lines on the road.

Tenya had driven his body so far back that Konin and the other man were no longer within sight. Not like either of them cared. 

As they both stopped, Tenya's body appeared to be floating horizontally in mid-air, his fingers tightly interlocked with the man's. 

Tenya pulled both his legs fully back, raising them high into the air. Tightening his grip on the man's. The man tried to pull away, but it was too late.

Tenya thrusted both his feet into the man's stomach. The impact created a mighty force of wind shattering all the glass windows of the buildings within a hundred metre radius as well as taking apart some roofings and furniture.

The man's eyes went blank for a second and shook rapidly, but his feet stood firmly to the ground.

Tenya, finishing his initial attack, loosened his grip a bit. The man noticing the opportunity released one of his hands almost reflexively. 

Recovering immediately, he bolted his hand into a firm fist. His eyes aiming at a target. Something like bones came piercing out, reinforcing his knuckles, and in less than a second, he had driven his fist into Tenya's jaw. Tenya didn't even have enough time to react.

It was now Tenya's turn to feel the knock back; staggered his body felt no pain, but his world began to swirl, everything swung around him in a strange manner. He saw a weird light illuminate; and his body moved on reflex. 

A strange move; one that the man couldn't comprehend.

One second, the man was standing upright, charging a blast through his mouth aimed directly at Tenya, his grip still firm on the boy's hand. And in the next second, his entire body had been turned upside down.

He was once looking down at Tenya from above, but now he was looking at him from below Tenya's knees. Both their hands still locked in a tight grip.

Their eyes met. Tenya's eyes, although dazed, drove fear into the man's heart.

Suddenly, a white line flew diagonally across the air. The man bent back, dodging it by a hairs grace. He immediately swung his leg down to Tenya's head.

Tenya blocked it with his free arm, squatting at the force. 

The man's leg opened up at the ankle just above Tenya's wrist and right before his face, like a mouth filled with large bony fangs . Tenya's eyes had alertedly woken up from the daze.

A purple blast immediately shut out of the mouth like structure in his ankle. A large explosion was made, sending a large shockwave and a mighty gust of wind ground the area.
