*While Ryu and Socrates watched the ensuing robattle, someone else was watching them...*
<span style='color:blue'>"What the heck are those two doing?" *Gyro, perched on the top of a deserted newstand, looked down on the pair.*</span>
<span style='color:blue'>"Looks like they're watching that robattle." *Flashcon pointed off in the distance, too far for Gyro to make out much of the fight.*</span>
<span style='color:blue'>"If that's all they're doing why hide out back here? People wath robattles all the time? Well, whatever." *Gyro grinned and raised his left arm, the arm with his medawatch.* "That white bot looks like it has some pretty nice parts.* "Flashcon, let's go teach them a little lesson." *The green and black medabot laughed and jumped off the roof the same time as Gyro and both landed smoothly on the pavement.*</span>
<span style='color:red'>*Ryu and Socraters jumped and looked around, startled by the sudden sound.* </span>
<span style='color:blue'>"Hey losers, don't you know it's rude to spy on people?" *Gyro smirked.* "Looks like Flashcon and I will have to teach you some manners. I challenge you to a robattle!"</span>
<span style='color:blue'>Flashcon</span>
Medal: Wyvern 2 Head - Foresight Torso - Air Raid Right arm - Ronin Blade Left arm - Sparkler Blaster Right leg - Secret Blade Left leg - Tetra Crash
<span style='color:red'>Ryu shook his head and sighed.
"If you are looking for a robattle, I am by no means interested." the boy turned back to watch the robattle, "Come back when your mind is not cluttered with thoughts of acquistion."</span>
<span style='color:blue'>Gyro looked a little shocked. "How--"</span>
<span style='color:red'>"-- Did I figure out that you were interested in a gambling robattle?" Ryu finished, "The look in your eyes and the look of your Medabot. I've seen it hundreds of times before. I'm just amazed I can still recognize it."</span>
<span style='color:blue'>Ryu's would be opponent gritted his teeth and clenched his fist, "So you're a know-it-all, huh?!"</span>
<span style='color:red'>"Just challenge someone else." Ryu replied ever so calmly, "You'll find no satisfaction fighting me and Socrates."</span>
<span style='color:blue'>"That's the point. I'm not here to just robattle. Flashcon, go!"</span>
<span style='color:red'>Socrates instantly vanished as the attack came his way.</span>
<span style='color:blue'>"What the he--"</span>
<span style='color:red'>Ryu just crossed his arms and turned back around. Socrates reappeared in front of Ryu sporting a fearsome black color scheme.</span>
<span style='color:red'>"You'll regret that." Ryu spoke sternly to Gyro, then looked at his faithful Medabot friend, "I don't need to tell you anything, Socrates. You know what to do."</span>
<span style='color:blue'>Moments later, Flashcon was twitching on the ground with sparks flying everywhere... and Gyro was just as stunned, his jaw wide open. </span>
<span style='color:red'>Ryu had not moved or spoken into his medawatch. In fact, his eyes had been closed the entire time. Not even a smirk was on his face. </span>
<span style='color:red'>Socrates stood, unharmed, putting his battle gear and black color scheme away.</span>
<span style='color:red'>"I told you to challenge someone else. Now you paid the price for your greed.... and keep your parts. You'll need them." Ryu spoke in a flat voice, "Come, Socrates. Let's find other robattles to watch."</span>
-------
((Sorry about handing the humble pie over to you, Josiah-sama, but it did say in Ryu's and Socrates's bio that they were very advanced as a Team. I'm pretty sure Gyro and Flashcon would not have stood a chance...
That and this character is the "Rokusho" Element in this RP. Can't have a good Anime-based RP without the one overpowered loner character that comes in and tests everyone, or lends a hand when he feels like it.))
*waves hand in a jedi-like manner* Move along. Nothing to see here...
((I wasn't expecting to win, although putting up a fight would have been nice. -_- This way we've got a nice rivalry going. Or at least Gyro does, Ryu probably doesn't care. Of course, Gyro may just make him care later on...))
<span style='color:blue'>*Gyro watched angrily as the mysterious boy and his medabot vanished into the distance. Then, raising his medawatch, he began changing Flashcon's parts. He always kept a spare set of all of Flashcon's normal medaparts in case some were lost or damaged. This way, he'd have his medabot back on its feet in no time, without having to repair all the damaged parts first.*</span>
<span style='color:blue'>"Who does that jerk think he is?" *Gyro was seething. Although he hadn't been battling for a long time, he didn't lose often and never so badly.* "He may have caught me off guard with that invisibility trick but it won't happen again!" *He replaced Flashcon's medal and activated the medabot.* "Flashcon, come on. We've got some medaparts to find. The next time we see that guy he won't be so lucky."</span>
<span style='color:green'>Kiyaru was watching Gyro from a distance. He saw the entire battle "*sigh* Who's this guy think he is?" said Kiyaru as he stood up "Lidefi, get ready to battle."
Lidefi nodded, acknowledging Kiyaru's command.
He followed Gyro from a fairly close distance. "After he's fixed things up, I'll take him down" he said to himself smerking.</span>
"<span style='color:orange'>Use lock on</span>." he said to Ninjutsu. Ninjutsu used his eyes to lock on to the strem of water. He threw a ninja star into it, which parted it enough for the medabot to jump through, if he compacted himself. "<span style='color:orange'>Now go</span>." Ninjutsu leaped through the tunnel of water, and struck the body just after the ninja star. Of course, he also took damge from the water since he was at point blank when the water reformed, but he was able to stick a ninja star point blank into the cannon.

<span style='color:pink'>Opal looked at her watch as it told her that Sharkans' torso was almost out of service.
"Come on Sharkan, we've pulled through tougher battles than this! Use Hyper Kick!"
Sharkan bolted from the ground and kicked Ninjutsu square in the head.
"Good job Sharkan!" Opal cheered, looking for another cigerette to light.</span>
<span style='color:orange'>"......Ouch......"</span> spoke Ninjutsu. His head was barely functional. "<span style='color:orange'>Try double Ninja ninja..</span>." suggested Wally, and Ninjutsu replicated himself. "<span style='color:orange'>Now let's try ninja stars</span>. Several ninja stars flew at Sharkan, but they were coming from two different directions this time, and did twice as much damage, due to there being twice as many stars being thrown.

<span style='color:pink'>"Quickly, use shield!" Sharkan blocked most of the ninja stars, but a few nick'd his torso, and made it out of use.
"Crap! Use Keen Eye and then water pistol!"She ordered.
Sharkan nodded and located the correct Ninjutsu and aimed his his attack to his head.</span>
Ninjutsu used the same tactic as before, throwing the ninja star at the stream. This time, however, it didn't split the spray, it simply redirected the water so it hit his left arm, like sticking your thumb onto a water fountain.. He grabbed his left arm with "pain" although he felt none, and used acceleration to charge at sharkan. Both of Ninjutsu charged, rather.

Ninjutsu tripped and fell, which at that speed meant that he pretty much lost right then and there. He lay on the ground at sharkans feet, dazed and pretty battered from his fall, tuimble, and slide after being hit. The copy stopped and vanished a centimeter away from sharkan. "<span style='color:orange'>Good tactic</span>." admitted Wally, pressing buttons on his watch.

"<span style='color:orange'>I dunno...define 'anything'</span>" he shrugged. "You can always eat at my dad's bakery" (*dies for having bakerys omnipresent in every rp I join*) "<span style='color:orange'>Or you could sleep in an inn or something. It all depends on what you want to do.</span>" he shrugged again. He was now transporting te medabot away into the medawatch, for repairing at a later date, meaning this afternoon.

<span style='color:pink'>Opal fumbled with her cigerette.
"Is that it? No areas to robattle or hang out like a skatepark?" She questioned as Sharkan just stood there obediantly.</span>
"<span style='color:orange'>If you want to robattle, I would reccomend just walking around, there are plenty of people to challenge you just hanging around outside theur houses or something</span>." he shrugged for the third time. "<span style='color:orange'>And there's an internet cafe doubled with a go-kart place a few blocks away, if you want to hang out there would be your best bet, especially if you're looking to robattle.</span>" he said, still looking down. "<span style='color:orange'>I was actually just going there myself</span>."
