Sighing, Rai flash stepped to the familyâ€™s training grounds. He entered just as Akuma did, and stood as far back as he could, attempting to stay out of sight. He masked his spiritual pressure and watched as Amber came into the room.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">Damn girl never learns does she? </span>Rai thought watching. Even he, nearly a hundred years old and fighting for every bit of it, couldnâ€™t stand against Akuma. Itâ€™s the reason heâ€™s third seat and not captain. He had plenty of chances to take on his captain but has decided to stand down. He may be a badass but Akuma was much, much more.<br/><br/>Rai watched as Amber tried to take out Akumaâ€™s legs, an attack that might have worked on someone outside of the combat squad. However, this was the captain of the combat squad. His reflexes were much too quick for an attack like that.<br/><br/>He held back a laugh as Akuma easily countered, kicking her in the chest and knocking her back. Atleast Amber made an entertaining fight. When would she learn that when it came down to straight one on one combat, Akuma had no equal. Youâ€™d have to overrun the man with numbers, and even that is a long shot for success.<br/><br/>Rai watched as Akuma slammed his blade into Amberâ€™s, nearly knocking her into him. Rai watched as Amber, barely five feet away from him now, dissolved into the shadows looking for another opening on Akuma. He quickly looked to Akuma who dropped his guard completely. Rai knew this was a trap. Only question is, would Amberâ€™s hard headedness cause her to fall for it or not?
