(Samurai in this setting is a slang for a strong fighter who is loyal to his cause. The setting is like our world only with magic and monsters and all that. Instead of using real countries I think it would be better if we made up our own.)
A very large man carrying a six foot long Zanbato made his way into the bar. People quickly got out of his way, it was a scary sight. The man was 7'6 and looked like he had a steroid addiction. He wore some plane blue jeans and a black muscle sleeveless T-shirt. This was a renowned bar and generally peaceful until today; A well known aristocrat came in for a meeting bring in another arm person. Weapons were not even allowed at this bar but no one dared to argue against the noble and his very dangerous bodyguard.
As the giant made his way to a group of tables were the meeting was taken place, everyone formed a circle. Everyone knew of the bounty this man had and this giant was either another bodyguard or a bounty hunter. The smarter of the group of people, knowing it was going get ugly, paid for their food and drinks and quickly left the bar. The Zanbato was mostly black with red outlines, this was the color an old mercenary group, the blood knights, had for their uniforms. The blood knights were one of the stronger mercenary bands of their time, known for having no loyalty for any cause to any group. They had thought for terrorists, rival countries, rogue armies, churches, gangs... whoever could pay their large fee.
This made this even more interesting; Two years ago; the leaders of the band were all mysteriously killed over night with out a trace. With no one to lead it or fund it, it disbanded. The noble that was doing business in the bar right now was rumored to be responsible for the assassinations. This looked like a young member, probably in his early twenties, and not with much battle experience. The audience were starting to make bets on the fight. The large man stopped when he got close enough to notice one of the members to be armed. They were the only two people who were armed in this bar. He waited to see if the other armed man was going to make a move.

i25.photobucket.com/albums/c95/Cryswolf/Characters%20for%20Roleplaying/Pokemons/gijinka_espeon.pngThe man who had been hired to protect the Aristocrat was fairly known in the mercenary world due to the purple colored clothing he wore, the pink hair and the red gem in the middle of his forehead. He was in actuality probably the complete opposite of what some one would expect a mercenary to be but many people learned that they can't judge a book by its cover. He was known primarily as the one man army, not for his skill with weaponry but due to the fact that he had a strange power that allowed him to control things telepathically and even develop orbs of energy and pretty much blow people away. Due to him being well known he rarely went days without food and in fact would rake in so much money due to people paying large sums of money for him to protect them or kill some one.
His eyes looked up at the giant, a smirk appearing on his face at how some people had moved away due to the fact that they believed that something was going to happen due to the appearance of this man. One of his hands rose, pointing at the man as he chuckled very softly before his weapon made a move, the sheathed sword quickly rose off of the ground, flying into his hand which took hold of it. "Is something the matter sir? If not I would like it if you moved on your way or get cut trying something." the man said, his eyes looking to the one who hired him before looking back at the giant with a smirk on his face.

((From that picture his hair is actually kind purple-ish. It's a human Cinnamon.)) The giant hesitated, he didn't know who the some guy in purple clothing was but he knew he was good fighter; "The stranger, weaker looking, more unusual fighters are the ones you look out for first." One if his teachers told him. On top of that; When you are surrounded you will usually be okay, it is when you run into a single person is when you're in trouble. He was the only one guarding this guy.** He ran his free hand through his long red hair as he considered his options. Suddenly, he acted like he was going turn away but instead turned in a complete circle as he raised his sword in one hand and brings it down on the little guy, making him explode in a bloody mess! He sighed "I'd be stupid to think it would be that easy." (That bold was his day dreaming, it didn't really happen.) After two minutes of thinking of ways of how he should handle this he just snapped back to reality, he had a focus problem. "Huh, what?!" Fearing he had made a moved during that time, he lifted his sword up with just the arm that he used to drag it behind him, it lifted slowly off the guard before getting a little faster in midair, and then greatly increased his speed on the way down... hitting nothing but the wooden floor about a meter away from his feet.

The smaller purple clothed and haired boy merely watched the larger one as he seemed to think things over. Due to being a respectful man, he just remained still where he stood as the larger man seemed to get lost into his day dreams before he finally snapped out of his dreams. The smaller man merely chuckled as he watched him lift his sword, move and swing it down taking a pose which only caused him to smirk as the large man. He unsheathed his own sword, the gem on his forehead sparkled slightly as he moved in a blur, swinging his sword around before he got into a stance. "I'm more used to using my powers but I'll cut you to ribbons either way..."

He was embarrassed when he laughed at him. The people watching him were giving him weird looks and doubting his fighting abilities. He put his free hand on the handle and slowly lifted his sword straight up. It looked more like a giant metal boat paddle then a sword really. "You're kinda slow for a little guy... you better not try that again or this fight will be order quickly." He was kinda slow, and he didn't have any magical abilities, but he had some... interesting techniques that may seem like magic. The purple guy and the audience who think he can't do anything special may be in for a few surpises.

The smaller man merely smirked at what the larger guy said, he slid his sword back into the sheath but he let his hand remain on the hilt still as he just stared down the large man. "Well... Come at me then." He said, a large smile on his lips as the gem continued to gleam in the light while his clothing shifted with the slight wind that seemed to blow through the building. This larger man was in for a surprise since he was highly ranked in both speed and strength which made him a very dangerous opponent.

"I was actually waiting for you to come at me... but whatever." He shifted to where he was holding his said with the blade facing behind him as he held it in both hands. "By the way this is my first real fight, so don't judge me too harshly if you win, okay?" He seemed so laid back, he was even smiling. He looked so serious and determined when he walked in. "Alright, here I go..." He tighten his grip and started swinging at a slow speed until he suddenly disappeared. There was a large gasp as the giant was suddenly behind him, his blade now about to hit him as fast as he just moved.

((If you're brain dead I have a few ideas, if you're willing to let me power play a little. I won't write the whole scene for us, but I'll write bits like attacks and counters. I had my idea for something Cinnamon(is it him?) could do right now that would be cool.))

He knew the giant had a trick up on his sleeve, he just never would had guess it had to do with speed. Everything seemed to slow down for him as he used all of his speed and reflex to deal with this. First he turned around and got in a blocking position. Then, using his power he tried to see if he could grab ahold of his massive sword, he couldn't but he could feel how strong it was, and found out if he tried to block it it would go straight through his sword and him. In a panic, he focused all of his power on the giant's stomach. The giant's gasp as he suddenly slide against the floor and almost hit the wall, almost hitting several people in the audience, this all happened under a second. The giant looked down on his stomach and saw there was now a hole in his T-shirt. He stuck his sword in the floor next to him as he used one hand to lift his shirt up and his other hand to feel it; he had a huge ugly bruise in the middle of his six-pack and it was bleeding in a few places. "Ow..." He was surprised, that should had been more than a bruise, it should had been a HOLE through the giant right now. He now realized the that the giant actually had some real strength, and was not just an oversized dumb muscle meat bag.

((If I don't portray your character the way you like I can edit and retry or you could ignore it. Avoiding using their names is starting to get a little confusing to me; my guy's name is Drass.))

Cin (pronounced like Sin) looked at the giant, he had reacted as quick as he could at that point which had led to him only using around half of his psychic ability to try to get the giant away from him. He was very surprised to see that the giant had survived the hit as it would have normally put a hole straight through people since he has used that sort of attack multiple times in the past. "Damn..." He said, the jewel in the middle of his head began to glint slightly and glow as his hands became covered in a purple like flame as he looked towards the giant with a growl. "I wont lose to some dumb meat bag." He said, quickly he released a pulse of power, everything in its path was thrown away as it made its way towards the giant in an attempt to throw him away further even if it meant sending him through the wall.

Drass looked up at Cin and became a little worried. "He seemed like such a lighthearted guy when we started." He frowned and got ready to dodge. Everyone was freaking out, even the man Cin was supposedly protecting had to jump out of his chair as Cin got it with his power too. Beer bottles, tables, chairs, silver and glassware were all being thrown at him and it seemed like he had no hope at dodging. And then it looked like it he teleported again but this time watching from far away Cin could see what he was really doing; he slid over the smooth wooden floor so far it looked like a blur, he side stepped most of the objects and then went around in a half circle to dodge the more before sliding back right next to his sword before stopping. If you look down you could see rub marks his shoes had made on the floor. He picked up his zanbato and held it behind his head like it was nothing but a toy. "Why are you so mad now? You were so playful just a few moments ago."
