Secondary Character

The Power of Susanoo
Even before I meet the girl with pink hair, I was a complete an total jerk. I had been trained by the God of Storms, Susanoo for almost two years and most of the time, I spent complaining on his style of fighting. It was completely rediculous.

He had used too much defense and not enough offense. How could anyone win a battle when all they do is stand around dodging their enemy's attacks. To me it would take far too long. I made my way through the City as I reached a nice and peaceful beach.

The ocean breeze had relaxed me as I sat ontop a cliff like boulder gazing off into the sea. If anything this was very relaxing. Far too relaxing.

I raised the question of the whole defensive combat as I noticed a beautiful girl walking around, she seemed to be irratated and annoyed at the fact that she had missed someone. Or something.

I ignored her as I continued to watch the waves crash against the shore thinking back on my training with Susanoo. In a faded moment I recalled my test.

I was now overpowered huffing and puffing as I gazed at the God of Storms. He was now in a basic human form, He had shagged spiky black hair and dark brown eyes that radiated power and concentrated storm clouds. He was sporting a tux overcoat along with a white button-up dress shirt and dress pants along with a pair of dress shows. He looked like he was ready for an event, but he also seemed to adopt the fashion of current Japan.

He stood with his hands in his pockets as he gazed at me with his dark brown eyes, as they shifted from dark brown to stormy gray. He wasn't any where pleased with me as he glared at me.

"Noah, only defensive attacks are the best. It's always known that the best offense relies on your greatest Defense. Even the Mortal Boxer knew that his point was valid."

I glared at him, as I dusted off my face as I rose to my feet. "Even the strongest defense has flaws! And I will find your weakness." I charged at him, as the memory faded.

I was still on the cliff-like boulder as the waves corrested the shore and the girl with pink hair had now appeared to be sitting near by. She turned and gazed at me as she smiled. It was a kind and tender smil, but also it held meaning to it as I wondered who she was.

In a realization of power, I noticed an ominous presence close by. It was the presence of Amaterasu, the Goddess of the Sun and the Eternal flames. I quickly scanned the area to notice nothing. There was no sign of any danger. I rose to my feet as I walked closer towards the girl with pink hair to realize she had a faint but ancient power dwelling inside of her.

She gazed at me as I took a seat next to her. "Your powerful aren't you?" I asked, as I fixed my gaze on the shores. "I can sense the power of Amaterasu, and it's faint, but I can see she's with you."

Her eyes faltered as she dropped to a keen eye. "I am the Mage of Amaterasu, but I wonder how could you possibly notice that I had the powers of Amaterasu, I've never met one of us, before but I've also never heard of a Mage being capable enough to read the powers of Gods."

I took a sigh of breath before I rose to my feet. "That's because I have the gift of the Storm. I am completely connected to my God, Susanoo. I can forge the power of Susanoo fully and use most of his wrath against any and all enemies." He smiled as he gazed at her with pride.

"I see." She smiled right back.

"Yes, but If you please I would like to test your powers as another Mage, to see who is stronger, Amaterasu or Susanoo." Forging a giant rib cage incasing his body, he formed a right arm as it smashed the spot where Youth was standing at.

Making a double axel backflip, she landed across the beach short as she smiled with ease. "I am a Mage of Amaterasu, but I am as the Leader of the Order, and I will maintain the rank that Amaterasu has bestowed upon me." Summoning a wave of black flames, she whipped her hand as the flames swirled around me.

In an explosion of flames, I arose from the devestation to have a giant glowing purple warrior surrounding me with my a bow and arrow. He had four arms and was shown to have imensive strength. My nose burned as my eyes began to sting as I gazed at Youth who was now shining in harsh light.

"Well, I must say your powers are impressive, for a Mage of Amaterasu, I can't believe that your this amazing. I'm pleased with your strength, even for a young and beautiful girl." I smiled, and for a minute there, it almost seemed like I was interested in her.

She keened her eyes as she forged a bow and arrow out of black flames and blasted at me. "Enough of this," Launching the eternal flamed arrow, she smiled as the flames slowly burned into my susanoo formation. I collapsed from exahustion as I waved my left hand to smash her to bits underfoot.

With a flicker of light, the formation dispersed as I rose to see her rise from dust. "You'll have to do better than that, Mage of Susanoo."

I smiled as I walked closer to see her unscathed. "My name is Noah, its a pleasure to meet and fight you," I gestured for her name as she held a blank expression.

"I'm Youth, it will be my pleasure to defeat you." She said as the sand dispersed from the air. We were now at a stand off as we locked eyes and charged at each other.
