Both Raiton and Raimei meet at the mouth of the cave where Riku is cornered by 2 Thunder Giants. The Thunder Giants, were a large humanoid beast with a yellow fur that had gold streaks up and down its arms.
Riku: Let go of me!!! Lightning Constriction Art: Pure Static!!!
Riku blinds the Thunder Giant that was holding her and runs over to Raiton and Raimei’s side as a third Thunder Giant appears behind them
Raiton: I’ll take these two on, Raimei keep Riku safe from the third one!
Raiton draws his sword and charges at the two Thunder Giants in front of him
Riku: Raiton that’s suicide!!
Raimei: Riku look out!
Riku turns around and just barely dodges the first of the third Thunder Giant
Raimei: Raiton’s got this remember we came here to train and he gave us his word we would all make it back alive now focus!!
Riku: Right!
Thunder Giants 1 and 2 throw punches at Raiton but he throws his sword above their fists and slides under them
Raiton: I’ll take you both down! Lightning Art: High Voltage Crush!
Raiton jumps and grabs his sword then kicks one Giant in the face then pushes off and punches the 2nd Giant. But he gets punched and flies out the cave
Raimei: Lightning Creation Art: Giant Electro Knuckles
Larger Electric Knuckles form on Raimei’s hands
Riku: Constricting Lightning Art: Paralysis Claws!
Claws grow on Riku’s hands and they rush the Giant
Meanwhile
Raiton gets up as he is rushed by the Giants and he is blocking their punches swiftly with his sword
Raiton: Is this all you got! I’ve taken way worse than this!
Thunder Giant 1 puts his hands together to smash Raiton into the ground but Raiton blocks it and the 2nd GIant punches him in the stomach and he coughs up blood when he hits the ground
Back to the other 2
Riku slashed the Giant with her Claw so he couldn’t move then Raimei went and bashed it’s skull in with his knuckles until it toppled over.
Riku: Nice job now let’s check on Raiton
Raimei: Right!
Riku and Raimei see Raiton as he kicks one of the Giants into the air
Raimei: Well looks like it’s over now, unless he uses the sword he isn’t fast enough yet to pull off the Soaring Bolt Dance with the Sword.
Riku: Can you shut up and have faith in him!
Raiton: Lightning Art: Soaring Kaminari Bolt Dance!
Raiton darts back and forth through the sky slashing the Giant with his sword as lightning flashes in the sky each time Raiton makes contact with the Giant
Raimei: No way.. He has actually gotten faster, I mean it’s not where it normally is but it’s a start.
Riku: I knew he would have nothing to worry about from the very beginning…
Raiton knocks the Giant to the ground and lands
Raiton: There is still one more…
The last Giant rages from the shadows and charges at the exhausted trio
Raimei: Yo Raiton wanna use the move?
Raiton: Nope don’t have the energy I still didn’t recover from yesterday and the bolt dance took a hell of a lot out of me.. But
Raiton slowly gets up
Raiton: I fight till my very last breath…. Lightning Art:....
Raiton jumps in the air with his sword covered in lightning
Riku: What’s he doing?!
Raimei: How should I know?!
Raiton:... Kaminari’s Wrath!!!!
Raiton dives down with his sword engulfed in electrifying Aura the Giant roars and jumps up to meet Raiton in the air and when his sword slashes the Giant there is a giant roar of thunder that can be heard all the way back to Denkyo Tavern.
Right then at Denkyo Tavern
Fray: Hmm seems like Raiton learned to infuse his Aura with the sword after all…
Vace: He did what!?! So soon??
Fray: Raiton’s got a large vessel of potential Vace, keep an eye on him
Raiton walked out of the smoke and looked at the stunned Raimei and Riku
Raiton: I’m starving Raimei what’d you catch??
Raiton and Raimei have a conversation while Riku thinks to herself -That was amazing-
Raiton: Hey Riku you coming to eat??
Riku: Oh yes sure
Riku Raiton and Raimei all joke and eat while Raiton rests up
Riku: It’s so dark probably time to call it a night you guys…
Raimei was already asleep and Raiton was sliding next to Riku but he seemed like he would go to sleep at any second*
Riku: Are you alright??
Raiton: Yeah I’ll be fine we may need a late start tomorrow so I’m not slowing you guys down.
Riku: You don’t slow me down you’ve saved my life countless times... Even today
Raiton: I told you ever since the day you joined me and Raimei I would protect you and keep you safe… and I mean it
Riku: That doesn’t mean I want you to keep getting hurt just to save my life! You wouldn’t be in pain if it wasn’t for me! I just joined you guys 2 months ago how can you risk your life for someone you barely even know?!?!
Raiton: I made a promise to myself 3 years ago…
Raiton: I promised not to ever again let someone I care about, someone I love, get hurt while I am around… And if that means I need to take a few hits just to see that person the next morning so be it.
