It's a beautiful morning, the forest seems to get greener everyday.
Otori thinks while walking along the path that leads away from his clan's headquarters. This began his journey through all the realms, discovering what each holds. The young man continues walking along the dirt path until it leads out to an open field. In the distance he can see a temple.
"I assume this will be my first stop." he says aloud while heading toward it. Upon getting closer Otori took notice to the monks training outside, this indeed was his first stop. He stood quietly and observed the monks going through their daily forms.

The monks had sensed the stranger's presence. They all looked over at him, their eyes glowing blue. This was a sign that they were being possessed by Sub. They were given the order of annihilating all trespassers. They stopped with their training, and all went in to attack Otori. The first Monk went to hit Otori in the head with his wooden staff, while the second went for the knees. Right now it was 2 against one, while all of the other monks created a ring around the 3 fighters.
"Kill him, rip him to shreds." They chanted together.

Otori's eyes easily recognized the attacking monks' methods.
"Ankoku Gensou." he said under his breath. He closed his eyes and waited for the monks to connect. Otori would then appear a few feet away from them on their blind sides and then would say:
"Hikari Honoo!" and force the ball into the middle of them and cause it to explode.

The Monks flew back after the explosion, and a cloud of dust flew through the air, acting as a smokescreen. They all jumped quickly up, and hid within it. Seeing that this opponent was stronger than all of the usual trespassers, they gathered up their chi, and covered their arms with thick ice. This would cause their attacks to hurt more, about the same effect of brass knuckles. The dust died down, and they saw Otori standing off to the side.
They lined up, side-by-side. A giant glowing ball began to grow in front of them. It shined a bright blue, ice particles moving around within it. When it became full power, they shot it off towards Otori.

These monks, something is strange. Otori thought while watching the ball of ice growing before him.
"Ah I see, quite interesting for my first encounter." Otori said quietly while adjusting his stance. He spread his legs out some and bent them slightly, to even distribute his weight and brace himself. His plan was to wait for their attack to come and use his Eien Tate to absorb it. Afterward he would use his Seishin Ryuu in attempt to take them all out at once.

The giant ice ball continued to fly at Otori. The monks noticed his stance and dropped their hands to their side. They were acting as one, intertwined together, same thoughts, same movements. When their hands hit their sides, the ice ball quickly plummeted to the ground and went under. They then moved swiftly around Otori, forming another ring around him. Together, they moved their hands in quick and swift symbols. When the finished, the ground began to glow a bright blue, within the ring. If the attack was successful, the opponent would be trapped within a thick layer of ice.

Suddenly a hole burst open from the ground, shattering hard rock and other materials everywhere. As the dust settled an odd skeletal looking man crawled out and stood, tilting his head at the Monks and Otori.
" Billy be thinkin' there some stuff here. Billy might just hav'ta take it from ya". Billy slowly walked forward.

Their tactics are quite good. Otori then stopped his attack midway and started another. His hands began to glow with white flames as he formed an orb.
"Hikari Honoo!" Otori shouted as he hurled the flaming orb toward at a few monks, in attempt to break the circle.

Some of the monks broke off to attack the skeletal man, while the others quickly re-joined the circle. Otori's attack would not work twice on them. They quickly brought up an ice wall, isolating Otori and his attack within it. A burst of blue light sprang up from within this wall. As the light solidified into ice, freezing all that was inside of it.
These monks, seeing that the task was completed with Otori, quickly ran over to help the other monks. They started off the exact same way, this was apparently their test to see how strong their opponent is. One of the monks went to attack the head of this skeleton with a wooden staff while the other went to take out it's knees.

In a fluid and quick motion, Billy bent his body out of the way of the attacks and hopped off to the side.
" Tch, this all Billy gonna' get? Some Grandpa-Fu"? Billy began moving forward slowly, then dashed, flinging his hands out as bones shot from his fingers.

Smart, yet not as effective as I thought Otori then caused his frozen flame to explode and shatter the ice around him. Otori then took a few deep breaths and rubbed his arms, after all the ice was quite cold. He then cleared his mind and began preparing for Seishin Ryuu. He was sure to have enough time to fully prepare his attack and eliminate a good number of the monks.

The monks brought up another wall of ice, blocking the projectile bones. They were then blown back out of surprise of the giant block of ice shattering. Ice flew everywhere. Two of the monks had giant shards of ice lodged inside their head. The ones who had survived that attack stood back up, and looked at both of the trespassers.
"What need do you have here?" One of the monks asked. From the way he was dressed, it appeared as if he was the lead monk. He snapped his fingers and the other monks began to slide on ice in a circle around the two trespassers, surrounding them.

Billy cracked his neck and put his arms behind his neck. " Well, Billy be hear to kill ya',". He tilted his head. " Thought that was obvious though".
Billy shot forth his bones again, this time at the circling Monks. Since his arms were behind his head, his left shot right and his right shot left.

Otori watched the skeletal figure launch a strange attack. Although he has no idea who the skeleton was, Otori would have to forge a temporary alliance and take care of these monks. he continued his Seishin Ryuu, this time finishing the preparation. Otori shouted and shot his arms out forward sending two dragons, one of light and one of darkness, out to attack the monks.

The monks continued to circle around them at rapid speeds. The head monk was in the center along with Otori and Billy. The bone projectiles could not hit the monks for they were going to fast, and they were just knocked down or broken. Seeing the two dragons, the head monk raised his arms rapidly, then quickly spun them hitting the ground as giant ice spears came from the ground. They came out, then would disappear and re-appear in a different spot randomly. But this was not one spear at a time, there were multiple ones coming out.
The monks spinning around the outside sped up to speeds unreachable by any normal human. A cold wind started to blow, and ice particles started to gather around them. They were preparing a final attack that would kill anything within a 2 mile radius.
