Weird. Strange. Bizarre. These are but a few words that describe both Onagi High and the martial artists that attend this infamous high school. With a multitude of men and women striving towards martial arts perfection right along side or sometimes even ahead of the nations academic standards there are bound to be a few..oddballs. Such a guy is one of Onagi's newest students : Mau Tsukichi. Kicking off to a big start having gotten swept into a life or death struggle between the school's hot shot guardians the Double Dragons and a group of mysterious weapon masters it is now a full fledged duel of weirdness.
Weather or not this Tsukichi is the right kind of weird shall be seen...
[Episode Four : Who are you and why aren't you punching?]
We begin with our would-be protagonist strolling the hallways a little after the start of lunch. Up to who knows what he stumbles across a group of three guys in karate uniforms having a conversation.
"Hah! I bet I could take the next guy who passes by without a problem" a broad first year with black hair remarks. Mau hears this before the group spots him and has a choice. Keep walking and possibly get into a fight or take a different route.

"FWAHA! We shall see!" the guy exclaims.
With no hesitation whatsoever the broad first year takes up stance in front of Mau. Arms up, hands clenched into fists and feet several feet apart with knees bent the guy intercepts the attack with his forearm and then throws a right punch straight at Mau's chest!
Mau has a chance to react to this however.
(Next time tell me how you're attacking. For right now tell me how you're dodging.)

i attempt to grab the fist and flip over him by using the momentum of his punch to help me spin. "see we shall, we see shell, she sells seashells!" *manic laughter*

It's a bit of a stretch but Mau manages to grab his opponent's fist and hop over him. Due to the guys slow and rigid nature he is unable to prevent Mau from landing smoothly on the other side OR from making his counter attack.

I use my technique:Spin, a headstand 3-strike spinning kick.

(Next time let me know where you're aiming)
Mau's opponent brings his forearms up managing to block a couple of the shots. However one does get through slipping beneath his guard and tagging him for a hard shot in his right side.
"Ugh! I'll show you!" the guy shouts now throwing his right foot out in front of him in the form of a kick aimed at Mau's solar plexus.

Mau drops from the handstand into a roll going to his right. (the attacker's left)"'show me what? your horrible aim? by the way what's your name? oh, heh, i rhymed!"

Mau manages to evade the attack with a nicely executed roll. The roll brings him past the chambered left fist of his opponent and places him diagonally to his opponent's back.
"Alright you! I, Dousu Atsushi, will not be made a fool of!" he shouts while whirling around and preparing for his opponents counter attack.

Mau atempts to pirouette on his left foot bring his right foot in to Dousu's chin as he spins. "a fool? you are a fool for thinking you could win, and more a fool for not knowing your foolishness."

"That's enough!" Dousu shouts raising a meaty forearm.
Mau's pirouette bounces off of his opponents arm and falls back to the ground from whence it came. The sudden reversal of his circular movement throws Mau off for just long enough for his opponent to burst forward with a strong punch to the chest!
The punch knocks Mau backwards but not off his feet. While the punch is not devastating it certainly leaves a pain in his chest.

"heh. i've longed for a good dance for a while" Mau uses falling star, aiming for dousu's left shoulder. (not sure whose turn it is)

(No worries.)
Dousu sees the attack coming and raises his arm to block. His arm is strong but Mau's kick has great momentum on its side. The attack lands squarely on his guarding arm knocking it into Dousu and causing him to stagger back. He seems surprised by this, dazed, perhaps even..stunned?

Mau, noticing the chance to continue attacking, uses his technique: "Behind You!" after landing from the previous attack. "you know the difference between you and me?" taunts Mau "the differnce is: I'M STILL DANCING!"

Smooth as polished silver Mau flips over his opponent and sweeps him like a standing heavybag. The guy hits the ground hard not even able to catch himself properly after the attack.
"Ugh...this is rediculous! I can't be beaten by someone who hasn't even thrown a single punch.." Dousu groans as he begins to get up.

"here, ill help you up..." Mau uses Kick The Moon, aiming for Dousu's chin.

He does his best to try and move out of the way but simply cannot defend himself as he is kicked hard in the chin. The blow makes him arch upward and then immediately drop down again. Defeated.
"It seems this punk's got some moves" one of Dousu's friends says moving in front of Mau.
"Yeah, funny 'cause all he's doing is dancing around. For the sake of our fighting style we can't let our buddy go un-avenged" the second guy says moving behind him.

"Keep joking wiseguy! see where it gets you!" the guy in front of Mau snarls while rushing up to him. Once within a couple feet of him the guy rears back and issues a three-punch burst aimed up his chest!
From personal experience Mau can recognize this is the kind of attack that won't be easily blocked or parried. He will need to react carefully considering there is also another enemy to his back that may interfere with his ability to defend himself from the initial attack.

Mau sighs, "fine, but i'll have no mercy!" Mau attempts to use 'Behind You!' to avoid the attack and respond with my own.

Mau manages to narrowly avoid the guy's multiple punches and sweeps him off his feet. With a loud "THUD!" the guy lands on his back with his hands at his sides. Though he did not take heavy damage Mau's manuver was certainly effective.
Unfortunately so is his other opponents! Right as Mau is coming back up from the sweep the second guy catches him in the right side of his ribcage with a snap kick that will most certainly bruise.
"Two at once not so easy huh?" the guy jeers.

"you're right, may you may be...interesting..." Mau begins to spin in place, using 'Regal Whirlwind' a technique where after spinning in place to build speed he jumps and extends a leg, kicking with all the momentem, and aims at the standing opennent's neck.

Mau spins and spins and spins before unleashing a momentum fueled kick. The foot lands on his opponents guard and then bursts THROUGH it to collide with his neck!
"What?!..my guard.." he remarks flabbergasted.
As he reels from the attack Mau spots out of the corner of his eye his other opponent attempting a sweep kick of his own from the ground.
"Don't lose focus!" he taunts.

With fluid motion Mau stomps down on the knee of the sweeping leg producing a loud "pop!"ing sound and then goes into a roll. He pops back up looking super cool and in an excellent position to continue the fight against his remaining opponent.
"GAAAAAH! This isn't possible!" the failed sweeper protests from the ground.
"Such results..and not a single punch!" remarks the guy still up.

"Heh, I'll give you a chance to give up. i really do have a game of Twister-Scrabble to get to...hey! you can come if you want... al though with your friends leg like that he won't be able to play. but i will help him get to the Nurses' Office. you fought for honor and that is good, but what's better is knowing when to give up, so how about it?." (if succesful) Mau extends picks up the unconscious Dousu and say's to one still standing "grab your friend, let's go"

Mau's remaing opponent does not respond verbally but instead physically by picking up his unconscious friend before he has a chance. He also hauls his other friend up who uses his shoulder for support.
"No need. We can at least take care of our own" the guy growls "whoever you are you can expect a duel invitation the moment we get stronger".
Letting his declaration hang in the air the guy begins to leave.

"Kay, BYE!" Mau checks his watch to see if he missed Twister-Scrabble, or not, thinking to himself, ~I wonder if Uncle will teach me ninjutsu when i get home today...I sure hope so~ then heads either home or to the Twister-Scrabble game.
(will be using ~ for internal dialogue from now on if that's okay)

With a new victory and sense of accomplishment Mau heads off to the game of scrabble he was talking about. Better known as the game of the day for the W.E.I.R.D. circle, but that's a story for another time...
[Episode Four : Who are you and why aren't you punching? Completed!]
Points earned: Honor-0! Cool -5! Delinquent -2!
Now begins Episode Five : The Weight of the Darkness!
Silence.
Silence that can be felt in the air like a lead curtain bearing down on him. That is Mau's latest opponent. Sitting across from him in an old apartment building is Mau's uncle. His stern gaze bearing down on him is only broken by words from his own mouth.
"Have you thought about what I said the last time you requested to learn from me?" he asks.
