Dreams were nice. Rei-Rei liked dreams, especially ones with dreamy heroes forced to assume the role of the damsel in distress, and she, the beautiful, gallant knight, reconciled to save her lady-love, errr, gentle-love. She was, in fact, in a very similar dream as this one-- with a tower, guarded by a floating sea monkey and a wash of waves that rammed against the rocks of the small patch of island that played host. And as the waves dashed against her love's hopes and dreams of rescue, so to was the bumbling, heavy footed shark's stomping along the hardwood floor of their room. Dream bubbles burst and snoozing at its end, Rei-Rei raised her head from faceplanted style of sleep, her hair entwined and sticking up this and that way, only to see an empty room. She could hear Tai torrenting down the stairs and for the life of her couldn't figure out why.

Was he bailing? Hmph? He'd left his shirt so probably not. Did he have to pee? Hmm come to think of it, she had to pee now as well. Great. Perfect. First she's stolen from her triumphant surrealism and now from her soft, warm bed by the grips of a full bladder taking its chance to relieve itself at her inconvenience. With a blanket wrapped atop her head and hanging over her body, she slowly excited the room, half awake, half feeling out the bath from memory alone, descending the winding staircase. As he hit the ground floor, she completely walked past Tai who had stopped only because he'd been met with the likes of a few fiendish bandits raiding the first floor. None of this, however, meant anything to Rei-Darling, course not. Had she even noticed? Could she even see the status of the situation through crusty-eyed haze?

What she did, see, however, was a body blocking the bathroom entrance, stalling her from relieving herself. He was a burly fellow, ugly as all day, wide as all outside, but none of this mattered to the purple haired vixen. She wanted only one thing and nothing was going to stand in her way. The man snarled as she approached, hoping to find her a fair booty from tonight's raid. However, as soon as Rei-Rei reached her, her arms jetted out so quick and fast that the movement could have been missed if you weren't paying attention. The man's face held an expression somewhere between shock and bewilderment as she slowly tipped over, frozen in the same position. Gasps ripped from this mouth and that one, wondering what she'd did to him.

Another man approached the door and held his arm out to block her passage.... "Who do you think you are, you little bitch?"

"I....Have...to....PEEEEEE" And just like that, the fight was on...

The girl's breathing at this point was jagged and heavy, exhausted of the two men she'd just had to take down. Playtime was over and she ran into the other room to see Jax taking down three men at once with his karate style. It was amazing what he could do when he wasnt even giving it his all. As Rei-Rei watched, she knew that she only wanted to get stronger. True, she may never be as strong as Tai was or could be, but she could be her own kind of strong.

She started to walk over to him when a huge knife reached out from behind her and pressed itself against the nape of her neck. Her pulsed stopped in her throat as she could feel the body of the man pressing up against her, pushing himself against her ass as a second arm wrapped itself around her stomach. The smell of him alone was enough to make Reinaka vomit all over the floor. He reeked of cheap alcohol, cigerettes and musk would probably only go away after several hours in a steaming hot shower.

"A pretty little girl you are... I cant wait to taste you after I've carved some of the unnecessary bits off first."

The man's whisper turned into a stark cackle in her ear. There was a true fear in her gut now and with that a resilience that only those who were pushed to the brink could capitalize on. She inhaled and then reacted. Her fingers went up to the arm holding the knife and jabbed three pressure points in his forearm, immobilizing the limb exactly where it was. She ducked from under his hold and ran back to tai, only to feel the sting a metal blade racing across her back. The pain was immediate, intense and burned with in the one second it took her to grab on to Tai. Fuck.

She screamed a muffled roar, held in by her hand over her mouth. She wouldn't give him the satisfaction of hollering out and giving him what he wanted. She turned back too him, falling to one knee only to see that the man was equipped with several knives. His stiff arm raised in the same position like a cast was set on it and a poison in his eye like he'd instantly had enough.

"You son's of bitches are gonna pay for this."

The man forced his arm back into place, which was no shock to the Chi Blocker. Rei didn't intend to immobilize him with that technique. She pushed the pain off her face for just a second to give him a smile. The bandit charged forward and raised his arms to strike. The girl stood there on one knee, then raised to bold confront him. Only feet from her she whispered, "Self-Destruct".

The man froze as though he'd been physically held back from his strike, his whole body quivering in some kind of intensity until he suddenly flew back as if struck by the very blow he intended for them. This was the power of her Chi Blocking techniques. Chi controlled all things and to reverse a person's chi was to reverse any kind of damage they would give out. Rei looked at Tai and nodded to him.

"Finish him."
