Viral was having none of Takeshi’s nonsense, he had already enough of it by the time he started talking to him. All that Takeshi wanted to do was fight and he had probably been waiting a long time to fight him. Now that he had the chance it seemed Takeshi was less than willing to go through with it all and was simply happy that he had managed to test his own strength for a few punches, not thinking about how it might affect him in return. “So you don’t care about anything else other than that?? You take a few punches and then you decide that’s enough??” Of course Takeshi wasn’t willing to put anymore into it if he had already lost, he hated putting effort into something for the other person. If he did put in as much effort into others as he did his training then his brother would probably be better by now.

Takeshi didn’t care about true strength, he never did. He only cared about physical strength and that much was pretty evident just now. There was little he cared about and what was happening just now was definitely one of those moments where he only cared about himself. So what if he was a little sore, that wasn’t going to stop him from continuing their fight when he was the one who asked for it. “That’s right, you don’t care about anything else concerning me!” he growled as he continued to take swings at Takeshi, following after him as he tried to avoid the punches, “You would only be happy so long as I could punch you!” It had been the same with mostly everyone. Everything that was going on in his and Shu’s head had all been left behind just to get them battle ready, a whole load of empty promises left by those who only wanted to get him fighting again. Finally managing to hit Takeshi he stopped and stared at him as he staggered, keeping his fists ready. “You wanted to test my strength and now you’re moaning when you do face it”, he spoke before going straight in again, readying another combo of punches and kicks, “Would you take it easy on me if I was the enemy?? Fight me like I am one!”
