thenearshore | You're like 90% of my self-control

Who: Hibari and You
When: July 13th, after Hakkai's disappearence
Where: The Far Shore
What: An almost mingle-post for anyone involved in Hibari's quest for destruction.
Warnings: Violence and Hibari. Fires.

It was only a few hours after Hakkai had disappeared, and the rage hadn't abated. The heavens were always having the last laugh, after all. Hibari at this point did not care about the consequences to himself any longer; the only thing came to his mind was vengeance and destruction. And he was very good at both.

For the proceeding hours until he ended up at Izumo's bar, a shadowy figure would be seen running around the Far Shore, setting large fires in his wake to burn any vegetation that happened to get in the way. If the smoke and flames didn't catch anyone's notice, then perhaps the sudden destruction of some temples would.

OOC: This is the place to go if you want to thread with Hibari during his violent quest, or just thread out the effects of his rampage in general. Anyone is allowed to tag in and around to offer their assistance.

~A~ Temple Run

Several temples volunteered in here are getting some new renovations to their place. They might need help cleaning up some of the rubble or healing, and maybe some of the owners aren't exactly happy their place is being destroyed.

~B~ Fire

There's fire all over the place; even if it isn't close to your temple, it wouldn't be too hard to see the smoke. Thankfully, it's only trailing in Hibari's path, but some effort needs to be put in to stop it from spreading and endangering more areas.

~C~ Direct Conflict

Some people have noticed Hibari before he got to his final destination; and the teenager isn't exactly happy about that. This option is reserved to those who have directly stated they want to fight or attempt to stop him physically.

ooc note: the final events of his rampage will be taking place at Izumo's bar, on his open thread.

~D~ Something Else?

[His keeper was missing, which was the reason that this was happening. Hakkai wasn't supposed to be the one to just disappear like this. Seeing Shizuo's face as he called out just made his mood even worse.]

I don't have time for your shitty, cowardly act.

[Hibari did turn his back to Shizuo in that moment, sending another hedgehog sphere rolling into the trees and crackling them, but he was tense. He absolutely expected an attack from behind.

Come on, attack him. He WANTS it.]

[ Or, you know, that damn hedgehog thing rolled right into a borderline that showed up between it and the trees right before impact. Sure, it destroyed the borderline right on impact, but it was never meant to stay up in the first place. ]

How the hell is telling you to knock something off cowardly?

[ He's salty about you treating him like a kid and holding back after that attack the other day, Shizuo. Unfortunately the blond is incapable of linking the events together.

Even more infuriating, Hibari isn't getting that hit from behind that he wanted. ]

Shut up.

[He hissed. He'd never felt this mad before where his flames were practically bursting out of his body and the pressure alone was causing the local flora to bend and break. Cloud flames normally didn't burn anything unless Hibari actively willed it, but he'd lost all care and control and they reigned freely and destructively around him.]

I will bite you to death.

[And that's when Shizuo got a borderline flying straight at his body like a sword strike, followed quickly by a bunch of tiny needle spheres flying straight at him that seemed to be multiplying exponentially.]

Ya know-

[ He stops for a moment, countering the borderline with his own- letting them shatter against one another, while tanking the... Uh, whatever those were supposed to be. Spiked balls. It was some kind of attack, the kind that he was using before. ]

You keep saying that.

[ It's probably why Hibari gets so pissed off by Shizuo. He's easily taking the hits or smacking some of the spheres away with superficial damage, but instead of attacking, he's just approaching the kid. He could fight, but clearly isn't about to. ]

I think you need to go cool off.

[The spikes on the little spheres definitely would cause cuts with ease, but they were hard to knock away when controlled by Hibari. Ironically, the only good way for him to cool off at this point was to fight and fight some more to let it out, but Shizuo supressing that was making the rage and his flames worse.

Nearby plants were catching on fire again as he let his power go wild. This asshole, this fucking asshole was looking down on him!]

You fucking coward-stop TREATING ME LIKE A CHILD!!!

[Both of his tonfas had transformed into handcuffs, and he spun them around so the chains elongated and flew out to wrap around Shizuo. They were sharp enough to cut if they touched skin, and Hibari would be yanking on them mercilessly if/once they connected.]

[ 'Stop treating me like a child' says the kid currently pulling a tantrum all over the heavens. That's all he could help seeing right now. So as the handcuffs flew out, Shizuo easily jumped several meters into the air. What, he didn't want to go too far up.

The problem is that things in the immediate area were getting worse,

As he lands down next to the teen, Shizuo used the power in him to punch the ground with... Well, some modicum of force. Not all of it, because that could cause problems, but enough that a small crater would form and dirt could kick up and cover everything. Because covering fire made with someone's fire followed the same rules as actual fire. Sure. ~~Look, he thought it was a good idea.~~ At the very least, it was a small smokescreen. Filled with rocks. ]

If you don't wanna be treated like a kid, then stop acting like one.

[ Which is when he goes to give Hibari a finger flick to the side of his head. It's not much, but not much can fly a normal person back a few feet and give them a severe concussion. Luckily, Hibari's not a normal person. ]

[Thankfully for Hibari, he didn't rely solely on his sense of sight; as well as his cloud radar was good for situations like this, trying to tell what objects were real or not. Despite forgetting its extra purpose, it told him where Shizuo was heading in from, even if the small rocks made him have to flinch back a little bit.

Just seeing the blonde man's destructive power was pissing him off. So his feelings weren't valid because he was young? Oh, he knew far too much about how that worked. His tonfa flew up to block Shizuo's hand coming towards his head, winding up the other arm to drive a blow the hardest he could at the man's rib cage.]

[ It still meant that the flick collided into the tonfa, that taking the force of the 'blow,' as there was no way that Shizuo was going to stop it just because something was in the way. In fact, the blond was fine with tanking almost all of the hits. Because Hibari has no trouble ramming into the man's ribcage, though it came with the sensation of hitting cement or brick more than flesh.

This was because Shizuo was going to lock Hibari's arm with his own. If there was an injury, it couldn't be seen on the man's face, though that shouldn't be surprising by this point. He doesn't even react to flames the way normal, non-fire using, people do. ]

You're that desperate for me to be so serious, huh?

[ He's not doing anything yet, past that one action. Maybe the boy's emotions got through in that punch. ]

[Shizuo's own body felt tough, much stronger than a normal human, but he knew he had to have left some sort of mark or possibly even broken bones. So why the hell did this asshole not even care? He still wasn't even treating him like an actual threat now either, even though Hibari was done playing anything remotely nice with him.

He just growled animalistically and released the spikes on his tonfa, the arm twisted around his own being gouged by them before he rammed his head into Shizuo's.]

[ The spikes have definitely gouged into Shizuo's arm, though he still doesn't seem to notice. While they weren't able to go very deep, there was still a healthy amount of blood coming from the fresh wound. In fact, every time he hit a spike head on, there was some blood. It just didn't keep bleeding for long, and he never acknowledged the injury in the first place.

However this is when the blond firmly catches the teen's head with his other free hand. With a pretty firm grasp, too. ]

... Look, I think you really need to go cool off before you cause more damage. This ain't really working.

[ Hibari, how do you feel about flying? To Shizuo, he simply thinks that this is the easiest way for Hibari to calm down. Which isn't right, but the bartender tries to do what he thinks is right.

That is to say, with having pinned one arm and the other hand clutched over the boy's forehead, Shizuo tosses Hibari with quite an amount of strength after a short spin to gain momentum. There are some lakes, oceans and pools in the Far Shore, so it wasn't hard to aim for one of those. ]
