This was the feeling, Kishin leapt through the night sky feeling the icy wind beat against his face. Tonight his hoody, sweats and shoes were jet black to help hind him as he leapt among the roof tops, high above the illuminating lights of the street. Landing on a particularly high tower he inhales deeply enjoying the scent of the clean air. This was as good as any basketball match, he could feel adrenaline coursing through his veins and his heart beating a steady rhythm.

Then taking a running start he leaps high into the air almost seeming to fly for a few precious moments. “Man, I could get addicted to this.” He laughs as he continues towards the height of his leap. “I wonder if any other the others do this kinda thing” he wonders as the descent begins, his hood flapping in the wind on the way down.

"Probably not...the senshi lack those attributes, at least among those I've seen so far. Perhaps if one associated with air and wind begins to manifest then you'd have competition..." a voice says leaning near a wall close to where Kousuke would land. When he looked, he'd see the possibly familiar form of 'Nazo, black cloak blowing in the lightly snowing wind. "Though running around in knight form in the middle of the night is sure to attract some attention." he states a little boredly, waiting to see Kousuke's reaction to his sudden presence.

As Kousuke lands with a large impact he rights himself and stands up straight to look at the shadowed figure. “Well Nazo, it’s not like you don’t run around like this too. You’re here after all.” He points out and when Nazo mentioned that the others didn’t seems to have the talent for mobility that he did he sighs and nods.

“I suppose you’re right, to be honest if it wasn’t for the physical enchancements this transformation really wouldn’t be all that interesting. The ability to destroy things and fight pales in comparison to the freedom of gravity defying leaps.” He admits looking at his hands with a smile. “Though in the last battle I ended up being a glorified taxi cab, so maybe I should be a bit more concerned about how I can defeat the enemies.”

After admitting this he looks Nazo in the eye and asks. “So what’s your deal? I get that you’re supposed to be our mysterious shadow mentor, but you really haven’t explained anything and I’d like to know why you don’t join in on the main fighting.”

Nazo only shrugs at the remark about 'being here too'. Truth be told, he tended to teleport more often than he actually jumped around, but to correct him didn't seem like anything substantial enough to mention here and now. A few steps away from the wall towards the edge of the building, he shrugs again about the sentiment of being able to run around as the bigger perk of having his powers. There was much more to his powers than existed right here and now, but those would come in time, as it would for the rest.

"I think you did well enough in the last battle. You certainly have the offensive mindset that was needed, and the durability to withstand a 'replay' ability." he states, pausing in a moment's contemplation before speaking again about his questions.

"There are things I do not know, things you as a group need to figure out on your own, and things I have merely not been asked or had any particular reason to divulge. If you have any questions then I will certainly respond if it is within my ability to do so." he says, giving a concise, plain answers to an otherwise reasonable."[/b] he states and then shrugs about the combat.

"Because you as a group must learn to fight for yourselves. Me using my abilities would draw too much attention to the rest of you if it happened often enough. Virgo herself coming to this city would not end well, and you are not yet prepared for the task of engaging Virgo...or should I say, Beryl." he states, tilting his head and looking at the night sky, the moon specifically.

"Would you believe if I said that once there was a peaceful and benevolent kingdom on the Earth's Moon?"{/b]

At Nazo’s encouragement regarding the most recent battle Kousuke shrugs. “Oh, don’t misunderstand, I certainly don’t think I’m useless or anything, but the girls seem to have the real firepower. I mean even with that replay thing I didn’t manage to defeat that Scopio guy.” Kishin points out with a bit of a sigh.

“And on that note, if you can’t be useful by helping us fight, how about helping me figure out how to better control and use my powers?” he asks giving Nazo a pat on the back with a grin. “You’ve obviously been doing this for longer than the rest of us, so it won’t kill you to give me a few pointers.”

Though when Nazo brought up the moon Kingdom Kishin simply shrugged. “Well I don’t think I’m qualified to judge the truth of that statement, so sure I’ll believe you, but even if the kingdom on the moon was a utopia I like this planet. It’s my home, and even with all of its problems I love it.” He explains, scratching his nose a bit in embarrassment.

"Yes, but I believe that for the first time in many, many years Scorpio has felt the lash of pain in his body. What you have done to him is a feat that no military, bomb, or weapon has been able to achieve thus far. Zodiac members appearing on a battlefield is a sure sign of defeat for human armies. While a sufficiently trained and armed force can fend off a youma, with cost, a Zodiac has been thus far impregnable." he states, standing upright and stretching slightly, his hands clenching and unclenching as he twisted his neck a little.

"Do not misunderstand me. While I will only help in combat with the rest of you when needed, when the alternative is a dead senshi or knight, I am still accomplishing objectives such as preventing noncombatants from being killed in crossfire, along with other more exotic responsibilities. I fear I cannot go into specifics, but you will understand one day.

As far as your powers go...I can certainly offer some guidance. While you have a splendid control of the elemental energy of Earth, there is a second side to planetary power that I don't believe any of you have learned to tap into. It is the power of emotion. Whereas a Senshi has a greater affinity for raw energy than a knight does, the knight has a greater capacity to move the hearts and souls of those around them. While this sounds less...flashy...it has it's uses. You can help reinforce the confidence of your comrades in a particularly difficult battle, as well as inspire an ally to achieve a new potential. That is because of the nature of the planetary power." he says, making an open handed gesture toward the moon.

"Imagine if you will, your maximum potential being a large mass...let's say a body of water. The connection you hold with your planet is the pipe that leads the water to you. As an initiate, that connection is small...but in time, it will grow and you will gain a greater mastery over your power. Two factors will lead to this growth: experience and the bonds you form with other people. It may sound cliche, but as your own heart grows and you gain new reasons to defend others, as your personal relationships grow and remove the doubts that all people carry, as your life develops and the reasons you are a guardian manifest in your soul, that is when you achieve your maximum power. It is very different from the Covenant process which just accumulates negative energy as a mass and their body shifts in response to it and their powers grow...it is certainly more difficult, but more rewarding." he says calmly, then nodding slightly.

"Then you will be a fine guardian of the Earth. Further detail will come in time, but the scope of the current conflict dates back to a distant past before recorded history. It is quite interesting, if not tragic, how it all played out."
