On the Road Again...

A small panic having occurred from the members the dagger that was stuck in the ribs of the man was pulled out and used to stab the one who had committed a betrayal to his gang, even if accidental. Attacking the rest of them weren't necessary. Whoever Shirou hadn't taken out ended up running and Etzolix wasn't a fan of the chase. He despised cowards who chose to run even when they had higher numbers. It wasn't like the two were killing them anyway. Also, who the fuck attacks people with fancy weapons and expects them to not be skilled fighters? Did people partake in cosplay here or something? "Well that was...disappointing. I want to fight someone worthy, dammit." He said looking to Shirou wondering if this place was a good enough spot to actually fight each other and test out their power or in Etzolix's case the lack thereof.

He frowned as the remaining members ran away. How sad. He was hoping for at least a trying fight. "Quite disappointing," Shirou noted. "Maybe we'll find somebody in this Altrostatus place." He then continued along their way to the transfer section, or whatever it was.

"Yeah, how do we get there again anyway?" Etzolix asked much too lazy to pull out his own bundle of pamphlets he had taken. There were pretty useless if you didn't look at them.

"Hmm," Shirou mused, looking around. He pulled out the pamphlet, looking at the map. They were about a mile or so away, but something caught his eye. There was an area nearby. Due to the locations of these buildings built, there was a small square of space, big enough for a small area, hidden within an alleyway. "I don't know about you, but that fight left me pretty restless. Want to spar?" He asked as he turned down the correct alley and walked into the square, only asking as a formality.

"My previous hint completely escaped you, didn't it?" Etzolix said slightly annoyed. Not in a serious way but in the playing around way where he was practically insulting Shirou's deductive skills. "I'm always up for a spar." Etzolix said giving them some distance. He wondered how Shirou would proceed. The reptile wouldn't draw weapons until Shirou did but he wasn't even sure if he would right away just due to wondering how it would be like to fight like a youngling as he did before.

Shirou shrugged. "I can't catch every hint," he said sarcastically, rolling his eyes. As Etzolix stood there, waiting, Shirou thought about what he knew about his white-haired friend...which wasn't much. His fighting style was based upon countering. However, his strengths and weaknesses were completely unknown. Shirou assumed, though, that if Etzolix kept the same fighting style, he'd probably be agile and quick, even at being base level again, but that was only a guess at best. They wouldn't use weapons. Well, right now, yet. Shirou feigned a punch towards Etzolix's left side, then attempted to perform a sweep kick.

Etzolix taking a more nimble stance he noticed they weren't using weapons. Going into the sweep so it wouldn't hurt he would cartwheel and then yell, "WEEEE." As he did this now his original stance again. He didn't know why. He was just having fun with Shirou since they were actually on the same level. He was sure the other warrior would understand.

Etzolix cartwheeled and let out a "WEEEE". Shirou blinked, then grinned. This was definitely going to be. Still taking it light, Shirou sent a few punches towards Etzolix's torso.

A couple punches were thrown at Etzolix's torso. Stepping back out of Shirou's range he would jump in the air and try to drop kick him into a portal that would send him off of the tallest building they were on before and would create a portal that made it so when he fell to the ground he too would be going down so that way they could fight midair if his drop kick was successful.

Etzolix sent a kick towards Shirou, which he caught in his hands, where they then both fell through the portal. Shirou, letting go of Etzolix's leg, went to punch Etzolix in the stomach as he opened a rift below them. They would then fall through it and end up flying up the roof of the building they were next to.

As they fell through the same portal Etzolix didn't need to do anything particularly fancy as the punch was sent to his stomach. Letting gravity take care of most of his sent a kick towards Shirou's face his leg obviously being longer than Shirou's arm. He was forcing himself into a dive type maneuver while launching the kick so that if he continued the punch he would get a face full of foot. While doing this he would attempt to grab Shi's ankles as to get him in some type of aerial control. This happened simultaneously in a fluid movement.
