3rd pov:

After Sakara had apologized enough for them all to be satisfied, they continued on with their mock battles. Since she had said that Ayato could go next, he was the one across from Sakara. Laito was staying quiet after their small interaction that on one else knew about.

"Alright Ayato-kun, gimme your best shot, or do you need me to tell me what to do like in your introduction?" she taunted.

He snarled, but kept his ground. Getting into a stance that was made for defense as if asking her to attack him. She took his challenge head on. Not literally but she didn't wait for him to attack. Raising her fist to the sky she swung it in a downward arc.

'I guess it's time they see a little of what I can do.'

The moment her fist hit the ground it cracked and shattered. The ground between her and Ayato was now chunks of earth. With Ayato not expecting this he fell down in the now unstable ground. Before he could get stuck, he teleported out and appeared where he assumed was behind Sakara. Too bad for him, he immediately got a hard punch to the gut. The others watched in awe at her strength. Shu had woken up and was watching with mild interest as the sun started to set, casting an orange red coloring to everything. Ayato got back up and aimed a kick at her stomach. Sakara blocked and threw a punch that had no chakra, but was still enough to break bones. Ayato now knowing how hard she could hit dodged to the side to try and catch her off balance. Sakara acted as if she was indeed off balance and let Ayato punch her.

'Not bad. So far the only one who thought to use their teleporting ability in battle. Let's do that then, a battle of teleportation.'

Sakara smiled as she skidded back and landed in a crouched position. She sat there waiting for Ayato to attack her again and he did not disappoint. She waited until he was three feet away to switch with one of the training logs.  Ayato's fist hit it dead on the center and cracked the wood. Kanato let out a quiet wow as he watched. Reiji was drowning in displeasure. How could he have forgotten his supernatural abilities? He was extremely disappointed with himself. Ayato let out a surprised grunt at the contact of wood instead of skin.

"The hell?"

"You who, over here!"

They all looked over to where she was. She was now seated on the training post that Shu was leaning against, one leg dangling off the side.

"How do you think she did that Teddy?"

There was no reply from the bear. Ayato let out another battle cry as he charged at Sakara. This time when she disappeared there was no item to replace her and Ayato went flailing through the air. She flickered out of existence so fast it left an afterimage. She reappeared in another flicker.

"Ack!"

"Pftt"

Ayato glared at the pinkette as she appeared back where the fight started.

"Arrg! You didn't teleport before so why the hell are you teleporting now!?"

Sakara looked on in amusement and let a look of confusion fall over her face..

"Oi, oi. Weren't you the one who tempted me with your teleporting?" she asked.

"Uh!" Ayato once again was shot down by an invisible arrow to the heart.

"Besides, if this battle was like all the others the readers would get bored."

A two hundred pound dumbbell suddenly fell from the sky on Sakara's head.

"..."

Silence was all that could be heard as she stood there without making a move. She took the dumbbell off her head and held it. There was a piece of paper attached to the handle. It was a note.

{don't do that}

Sakara considered it for a moment before throwing it behind her into the forest. You could hear the squawking of birds and a large crash a few seconds later.

"Ok. ignore the dumbbell and let's continue the fight."

Sakara got back into her stance.

"Right!" Ayato replied, abit hesitantly.

She gazed at him for a second then disappeared. She reappeared high above Ayato who was still looking around for where she could have gone. Yui, surprisingly, was the only one to notice she was coming in hot.

"Above you!" she yelled.

Ayato looked up to see that sakara was indeed above him and teleported away. She fell to the ground with a *smash* and stood up. Ayato glared at her. With the others, Kanato was getting curious and decided to finally ask.

"Yui-chan, how did you see Sakara-chan? None of us did and we have heightened senses."

"Eh? Really?" Reiji and Laito nodded as they were now only half paying attention to the fight, which was now an intense battel of disappearing and reappearing.

"Well, I didn't see her anywhere on the ground and s-she never told us her abilities, and I thought that since she could teleport like you guys t-that she could be anywhere. S-since I can't see underground, I thought that the only other place to be was ...up."

They nodded.

'I don't think I've ever tried to teleport underground before.' thought Shu.

Back in the now over battle, Ayato was pinned with the same shuriken from earlier. Sakara deadpanned.

"Really? To fall for the same trick twice is just embarrassing, oh great ore-sama." she teased.

Ayato flushed as red as his hair.

"Shut up! Ore-sama at least knows how to get out of this now!"

Ayato wiggled out of his shirt.

Ayato took the shuriken out of his shirt.

Ayato put the shirt back on.

Ayato pulled the shuriken out of his pants.

Ayato stood there proudly as if he had just won an award.

Sakara stood there amused.

Sakara pulled out another kunai and started spinning it.

Sakara deadpanned. Sakara went Yamato-sensei mode.

Sakara put the kunai back in her pouch.

"Don't act like you did something great, you baby faced degenerate. Next time the shuriken will be thrown harder and you won't be able to do that. Just rip your clothes, it's not that hard."

Sakara glowered down at him for a second time and Subaru silently snickered at his misfortune.

"H-hai!"
