Achievement of Power: Van and Akira's Descent into Shinkūmyō!

It was a cloudy day out over the city. The town seemed to be in a state of peace as the townsfolk went about their business. Rivals Van and Akira were sparring near the river in order to increase their strengths. Van started to charge at Akira

"Is that all you have? You were so strong the last time we clashed blades." Van laughed

"I'm sorry I thought this was supposed to be me taking pity on you. You want me to become serious? You know how that ends for the environment and besides. I wouldn't want to cause trouble for the spectators we seemed to have drawn in with our fight." Akira motioned Van to look behind him

"What are you talki-Oh! Wow!" Van smiled sheepishly "Nice! Looks lke we can't dissapoint."
