The New Winds

Please conduct your match here

Kokyou takes a good look at the Utaku at his side. A real good look. Rather confusing feelings start to fill his mind as he keeps reminding himself of Ichiro –– her brother –– when doing so. Controversial hormone charges begin to fight each other as the call to start the race is given.

As lightning itself, the Mantis young man lunges forward the wooden plank, sliding through it with a single move all the way through.

He only grins as his nearly-infinite dash takes its trajectory. Would the fine looking Battle Maiden bump into him?

Himeko watched Kokyou in return and smirks at him. When he takes off however, she is quite unprepared. The courses obstacles also prove to be too much for the headstrong Utaku, falling into the mud twice...

Points, 3, pending Kokyou's contested athletics. Not counting Ring selection

As if he dashed all the way up the the finishing line, Kokyou seems to be unhindered by any obstacle. In fact, as soon as he touches on them, it looks like they propel him even further forward.

Frustrated and covered in mud, Himeko approaches Kokyou and bows.

"Good show, Mantis-san. You are quite the skilled runner."

"Ye inspired me to show off the best I 'ave." He says, grinning like an idiot and bowing back to her.
