I stared up at the sky for a moment wondering how Hachi was. I was on the beaches of Sypan getting in some time with my air blades. There was always surfing to do to, but I was mostly just tired. I had used a lot of chakra trying to combine my ice and air attacks, but then only end up missing or doing me harm.
I went to the beach mainly to try and freeze the ocean tides using my blades as a medium. For some reason, I felt older. I guess it was just the fact that Hachi trusted me not to do anything stupid while I was away.
"Ok one more time I can do this!" I said grabing the hilts of both the blades. With them in hand I made a few hand signs and then brought them both up into the curved motion of the water.
"Freezing air!" I yelled. The water twenty feet away from me froze on the shore, but it only managed to freeze that much and I couldn't even hold it. It was better than before but still not enough. I wanted to do this.
I began to wonder if this is what Hachi meant by training your hardest for something.
"Freezing air!" I tried again. This time it it went about twenty five feet. I wanted to become stronger....stronger than Hachi even! I refused to be a weak demon!
It was still morning, but the sun was rising at an alarming rate, so I took a break and sat on the iced sand. The crystals were a nice touch to the sand. I wondered how everyone was doing.....I left so suddenly.....I didn't even get to see what happened to Yuri-chan.....she loves Shukakaku so much....
I shook my head to get the mental image away. Suddenly a frzbe went flying through the air. My fist instinct was to run after it, but I stopped. I couldn't afford to waist that much energy.
"Kai! How are you?" I heard Aki say. I looked around and sure enough there he was.
"Hey Aki!" I said waving.
"Is Maki with you?" Aki asked, "Or is it that snake guy...."
"I'm here by myself...." I answered.
"But you're too young to be out by yourself!" Aki nearly yelled.
"I asked Hachi and he gave me the money, so I'm thinking after this of going to Europe....." I was thinking out loud....
