Ichigo was originally a boy who had a unique gift for seeing spirits, after a twist of events he became what was known as a Soul Reaper; a warrior who not only made sure spirits crossed over to a peaceful afterlife in the Soul Society, a sanctuary for spirits, but who eliminated evil spirits known as Hollows.

While of a a scout mission for the Soul Society; he encountered a pair of masked men being attacked by a squad of mutated demons. After realising the spiritual pressure of the red coated one was that of a Hollow and by the equally disturbing mask, he attacked without hesitation but was quickly defeated. Afterwards, he made it his mission to hunt them down. He eventually caught up with them and was pulled into a fierce battle with a group of demons that had been sent to kill the two.

After being saved by the supposed Hollow, who identified himself as X, he knew he was the one who had been mistaken and fought side by side with him, even at one point having to use his own Hollow powers. In the end, the three came out victorious, and Ichigo heavily wounded. Thanking him for his courage, X managed to secure the inbalance in Ichigo's mind and give him full control of his Hollow and his Bankai and a host of new Soul Reaper Abilities.

Analysis: The third member to be recruited by Author Fighter, X Prodigy. Shadow The Hedgehog is the self-proclaimed ultimate lifeform created by Professor Geral Robotnik aboard the Space Colony ARK. Originally created to exact revenge for the Proffessor and his beloved freind Maria, Shadow nearly succeded in destroying the Earth until he remebered Maria's last wish; to protect the people of the Earth, to solve the problems of humanity. He altered his mistakes by using the power of the Chaos Emeralds to save the planet.

After the events with the Black Arms, Shadow wandered the Earth endlessly without purpose, seeking a reason for living now that the world had been saved and he had fufilled Maria's dying wish. It was then he was ambushed by a group of mutated creatures baring white masks, despite their size and number Shadow was quickly able to do away with them with his mastery of Chaos Control. The monsters perked his interest and set off to find who had sent them, and it was there he came across the group of three humans traversing through the endless desert of the Sahara. Seeing that the leader had the same mask as the creatures, he attacked wthout mercy.

The battle was short lived as the man known as Ichigo intercepted and managed to hold back the ultimate lifeform, and after some exchanged words involving the white creatures that turned out to be Hollows, Shadow ceased his attack and breifly apologised for the inconvience and was about to leave but was stopped by X, who seemed interested by the hedgehog's display of unusual power.

As night fell, Shadow had been forcefully convinced to stay and asked his questions about the Hollows in exchange for knowledge of his past. After the stories were told, Shadow was about to leave, but was stopped when a mysterious being attacked them. The assailant identified himself as Mars, a member of the Holy Knights, sent to directly destory the one known as X Prodigy.

Team Faust prepared themselves as the hooded creature lashed out, who had a dark talent for hand-to-hand combat that easily out did any ranged attacks that the team through at him. Halfway through the fight, Mars was interupted by Shadow, who demanded answers to why the Hollows had been sent after him; the evil wrestler seemed to recognise Shadow, saying that he thought he had died long ago on the ARK. At this comment, Shadow continued the fight on his own, trying to make him talk about what he knew of the ARK and the incident.

In the end, Shadow managed to defeat Mars by use of Chaos Control and demanded he anwsered his questions; Mars simply snarled, saying that there was more to the ARK incident than he knew of, the Holy Knights had the knowledge he seeked, before vanishing from sight. Shadow made a vow to find out the truth of his past and the secret the Holy Knights were keeping, and joined Team Faust in order to do so.

Analysis: The forth member to be recruited by author, X Prodigy. Hiei is by far the most distant but ruthless of the team, preferring to keep to his own agenda. He originally was on a solo mission to find the quoted ‘Hollow Devil’ for his own reasons, travelling into the far regions of Nirvana to do so, it is their he came across a cloaked figure in the middle of a labyrinth of rock pillars where he met a black cloaked figure.

It presented itself to Hiei as the last of the Sith, a fellow hunter from the Demon World; uninterested, Hiei demanded what he knew of the supposed Devil the Sith replied that the true Evil One was nearing and would help him slay it, not revealing any traits of his own ploys. After many hours the pair found a group of four travelling through the landscape and so attacked in unison.

Hiei managed to defeat the one’s known as Tobi and Ichigo with relative ease while the Sith handled Shadow and the ‘Hollow Devil’. In the end he was defeated and his robe torn, revealing a hybrid of creature and machine, it introduced itself as Darth Maul, sent to destroy the one known as X. In a blind rampage I began to destroy the whole area while trying to reach his target, Hiei demanded to known what the meaning of this was, and was greeted by a lightsabre through the stomach. Darth Maul declaring that using him had been easier than he had thought; he then engaged in a battle with X, which seemed to prove most difficult.

Tobi came to the demon’s side and used his Sharingan to heal the wound, reviving a much angered Hiei, who leapt into the fray with the Sith Lord. Using his knew empowered knowledge of the Dark Side of the Force, Maul nearly succeeded in killing Hiei, but not before X delivered a powerful blow to the creature’s hide, causing a break in the Force and sent the energy channelling into Hiei’s sword, fuelling it with dark energy. Using this and the power of his Inner Demon, he ended the life of the cybertronic Sith.

Congratulating him, X approached Hiei with an offer to join his team, Hiei immediately declined; stating his was part of no team. X though was persistent, promising him the chance to further increase his abilities, showing him the power of his already improved team, seeing that this was a man with powers even beyond his own, Hiei agreed, and immediately regretted it when Tobi started to annoy the hell out of him.

Hiei’s demon powers make him a formidable opponent, but due to the intense pressure of the Dark Side that flowed through his sword, he found that his own life was at risk, as a result of this; X sent Hiei on a dangerous journey in order to save his life, a journey through time and space thanks to the power of the Chaos Emerald. Along this journey he found himself under the tutoring of the Dark Father, Darth Vader. After sixth months, he returned, now in control of the Dark Side of the Force and his own lightsabre named 'Zanna Rossa'.

Analysis: The fifth member to be recruited by Author Fighter, X Prodigy. Kevin Mask was a rebellious fighter even from his childhood, raising himself in the backstreets of London, after making some wrong decisions in his life, like joining up with an evil wrestling organisation, he decided to try and perfect his wrestling style to become to the world champion. After losing the finals in the famous Chojin Crown Tornament, Kevin wandered along Japan looking for purpose, as he felt he was made for something better than meaningless wrestling matches.

One day, while passing through the busy city landscape, he witnessed the organisation known as the Akatsuki start a terroist attack on the area. Kevin tried his best to try and get civilians to safety but was unable to defend himself from the vast amount of exploding clay that Deidara was sending his way. Wounded, Kevin watched the incoming waves of fire from Itachi. At the last second someone jumped in the to block the attack, X, who deflected the attack and called on his team who engaged with the Akatsuki in combat.

Kevin was fasinated as he witnessed the individual mastery of Team Faust, who disappeared shortly after the fight, and decided to follow their tracks. After several short concidental meetings, one time of which Kevin saved Tobi from a Comrade Tubinski that had been reprogrammed to destroy them all. Kevin had slowly followed them, even to the point where he had to wander through the vast deserts that the team was adapted to. Finally came the time Kevin proved his worth when the Holy Knights sent their new creation; Warsman II. Kevin activated his Malestrom Power and with advanced skill and knowledge of wrestling defeated the copy of his tutor with the 'Big Ben Bash'.

X deeply thanked him for saving them and also revealed that they had known he had followed them the past month but chose not to say anything, but now offered him a place on the team. Kevin had since then acted as a valued member to the team, but still felt that he had not properly joined as he had finished off a damaged opponent to save them, his honour was not fufilled.

During a mission that, much to his happiness, involved the team entering a wrestling tornament, Kevin was pushed to his limits as he had to fight his old rival, Kid Muscle, who had accepted The Holy Knight's deal of merging with the Carnage symbiote to defeat Team Faust and win the tornament. After using his family's forbidden hold to an insane degree, Kevin defeated the newly awakened 'Muscle Carnage'.

Honour was torn though after the Knights revealed their real assailant; Kevin Mask's father known as Robin Mask, or now fused with the full Carnage symbiote, Deathstroke. Kevin had lost his will to fight and thus nearly lost his life. But after Deathstroke insulted his family and his pride, he broke free of his truma-state and merciless fought the creature, in the end he swore on his life that he would never let the Mask family name come to ruin and defeated the creature, killing his father in the process, and earning his way into Team Faust.

During the final part of the team's journey, Kevin managed to steal a wepon that the Holy Knights had chained up and registered as 'too dangerous for use'. Using the sword that once belonged to Cloud Strife, Kevin Mask wields this to an expert fegree, but finds himself the target of the newest Holy Knight, Sephiroth.

Clothes/Torso: Symbiote Suit (Blue/Black)

Clothes/Legs: Symbiote Suit (Blue/Black)

Analysis: The sixth member to be recruited by Author Fighter, X Prodigy. Fry was originally a delivery boy, who found himself cryogentically frozen into the year 3000 and countied to live a normal, despite the facts of aliens and robots. During an incident where he unlocked the secret of time, he found himself back in his own era though in the worst possible place.

Fry was captured by Orochimaru's gang of homicidal criminals, by the Snake Sannin's orders he was not to be killed; but to be made a slave and would be put in the control of his apprentice, Sasuke Uchiha, and leader of the group 'Hebi'. For three years Fry became a slave for the twisted Uchiha, often ridiculed and wounded for his insolence, until his cheerful personailty faded into sorrow, and had given up on life.

One night, Hebi was given a mission to safely deliver a container of the up most value, Fry was forced to come along to carry all the heavy weight. They were to meet at the ruins of a castle in the Hidden Grass Village. Just after midnight they met their 'employers' who consisted of his old comrade Bender, who had been reprogrammed to do evil and Black Doom, two members of the Holy Knights who had promised to pay Hebi with a hundred solid gold bars for delivery on arrival. Before the exchange coud be made, a group of five attacked the site, causing all groups to fight for survival, with Fry caught in the middle.

During the fight, the Team Faust member known as Tobi appeared. thinking he was an assasain Fry remained silent, hoping that his pitiful life would come to an end. Tobi on the other hand gave him the next best thing; he released him from the bonds that chained him before returning to the battle. Fry instictivly made a break for freedom, but was caught in the blast of Sasuke's fire style jutsu. Fry was then apprehended by the Uchiha, who said that his usefulness had come to an end, before impaling him with a Chidori.

He then left Fry to die, before leading Hebi into a stratigical retreat while Team Faust and the Holy Knights contiuned to fight. Unknown to everyone though, was the the container Hawk had delivered had been damaged during the fight, namely by Sasuke's sword, and a substance crawled it's way out and over to the dying body of Fry, which it began to bond to.

Fry then found himself at his old apartment, a couple of days later; confused and terrified to how he had survved such a powerful attack at such close range. It was only later on that he had discovered that what had been in the container was an alien symbiote; one of the two sons of Toxin, Bender being the other as he had demonstarted his alien alter ego, Slice, during the fight. He also found that while he was out cold, the symbiote had led him to safety, but not before lashing out at Sasuke briefly and ripping off some of his robe.

Excited and relieved about starting a new life, Fry decided to put that all behind him. But his darker side had other ideas when his new found senses picked up Sasuke's location, realising that he now had the strength to take down Hebi. Fry gave into the other thing that plagued his mind other than freedom, vengeance. He released his symbiote and became the newest symbiote in the bloodline, a hybrid of human and alien he named 'Sickness'.

Hebi and Team Faust had caught themselves in another encounter, wanting to learn of what lay within the container that the Holy Knights had desperatly needed, while the others wanted to find the Knights who had cheated them otu of their payment. Sasuke, out of nowhere was attacked by a mysterious assaliant, revealing himself as a monster with a score to settle. Sickness easily overcame Sasuke, even stoppng his Chidori, revealing his identity before preparing to kill him. He was then stopped by Ichigo and Tobi, saying that if he killed Sasuke out of hate he would allow the symbiote to completely take him over.

Using this oppotunity, Sasuke broke free of his grip and activated his Curse Seal, mutating him into a winged beast that prepared to unleash a blast so powerful it would destroy the ruins with everyone in it. Out of desperation, Fry lunged forward, impaling Sasuke through the chest, greatly wounding him - after this, Hebi abandoned teh figth and dragged Sasuke before he could be finished off.

X then apporched Fry, thanking him for saving them from the blood-crazed apprentice, considering that there was no way Fry could ignore the evil that would pursue him, he decided to join Team Faust, saying that Sickness would serve only to destroy that of the Holy Knights.

Yoruichi Shihoin
Name: Yoruichi Shihoin

Rank: Ex-Stealth Force Captain

Title: Goddess Of Flash

Age: Over One Hundred (Twenty In Appearance)

Nationality: Japanese

Skin Colour: Dark Skinned

Eye Colour: Bright Yellow

Clothes/Head: None

Clothes/Torso: Stealth Force Punishment Uniform

Clothes/Legs: Stealth Force Punishment Unform

Clothes/Other: Orange Jacket

Strengths: Soul Reaper Abilities

Weaknesses: Past Bonds

Analysis: The seventh member to be recruited by Author Fighter, X Prodigy. Yoruichi was a renegade Soul Reaper and had vanished from from the Soul Society for about 100 years, until resurfacing to train Ichigo in the way of Bankai. As a former member of the Stealth Force, she has excellent strength and intelligence, as well as being a master of the Flash Step which allows her to travel far distances in limited time.

Coincidentally, her mission had been to find Ichigo who had vanished almost a year ago; being his mentor and friend she made it her personal goal to find him, other reasons were involved but she tried to deny them. After nearly 4 weeks of tireless searching she came across a group known as the Holy Knights, who informed her that Ichigo was in the hostile grasp of a terroist group known as Team Faust, and asked for her assitance in bringing them to justice.

During a confrontation, Yoruichi engaged in battle with the feared group, and eventually found herself fighting Ichigo himself. Not believing his side of the story, she vowed to rid the wrold of his suppossed acts of murder and destruction, but ended up being defeated by his newly enhanced Hollow abilties. Unable to bring himself to kill her, Ichigo knocked her uncoinscious before leaving with the others. Since, Yoruichi trained under the mentoring of the Holy Knights, training until she reached the forbidden limits of the Flash Step and Flash Cry techniques.

She was teamed up with fellow Holy Knights; Ogichi and General Grievous, to eliminate the group and their newest member Sickness (Phillip J. Fry). With her new found skills, Yoruichi ended up pinning Ichigo down, but was unable to kill him and retreated, much to the suprise of Ichigo and the others. This resulted in her facing the true nature of the Holy Knights when she discovered their intentions to release Hollows into the world of the living and be used to hunt Team Faust down; this would redeem herself in the eyes of the Holy Knights if she succeded in this mission.

Yoruichi led the onslaught and ended up fighting Sickness, half-way through the battle, he whispered of the words Ichigo had shared with him; 'The consequece he would always regret for joining Team Faust, would be never being able to see her face again'. This stunned Yoruichi so much that she had no time Ogichi's incoming attack, and was implaed through the shoulder. The insane symbiote spoke that she was too weak to become a Holy Knight, that the purging of life was the blood of the organisation. It was in that moment that she realised she had been fighting alongside sadistic psychopaths whose objectives were far above eradicating Team Faust. Before Ogichi could take her life, Ichigo out of blind rage took out his anger on the monster, defending Yoruichi and all costs, even X quoted 'I've never seen him so determined to protect one person'.

Yoruichi then took on Ogichi one her own, saying that they had put too much faith in her heartbreak, and released her newfound power, abandoning the Holy Knights ways in order to find retribution. In the end, Ogichi was overwhelmed by the Goddess of Flash and beaten into an inch of his life. Grievous managed to teleport them both away before the finishing blow. Promising that she would pay with her life for this betrayal.

Afterwards; Yoruichi begged forgiveness from Team Faust, saying that she was foolish. Hiei and Shadow weren't convinced, but Tobi and Kevin were at odds with them, she had saved their lives after all. She, in particular, pleaded for Ichigo to forgive her and reffered to Scikness. Which of course suprised Ichigo, as he had never said those words. Fry chuckled, saying it was the only way to open her eyes to the truth, much to Ichigo's dismay. X decided that there was only one thing that could be done. Yoruichi would have to join Team Faust; which caused Ichigo to freak out again. Yoruichi happily excepted, promising to not only uphold all they stood for, but make sure she and Ichigo spent lots of 'quality' time together. Thus began the endless romantic teases from the group to Ichigo, who felt like his life had just gone down the drain, though Fry said that he would be able to deal with those un-expressed feelings of his now that Yourichi was a member.

Analysis: The eighth member to be recruited by Author Fighter, X Prodigy. Noob Saibot was formally a ninja from a distinct clan known as the Lin-Kuei, he was killed in a tournament known as Mortal Kombat and entered the dimension filled with darkness and hatred known as the Netherealm. It was their he became infused with malice and greed, becoming a creature known as a Wraith.

He joined other souls such as himself in a clan known as the Brotherhood of Shadow, led by the sorcerer known as Quan Chi, where they planned to break free and conquer the separate dimensions of Earthrealm and Outworld.

Secretly, he had plans to rule the Netherealm as his kingdom, but could not do so under the constant watch of Quan Chi. When the Brotherhood finally freed themselves through the mysterious powers of the medallion that Quan Chi held, Noob found his opportunity during an attack on Outworld when he discovered the remains of the former Cyborg, Smoke.

After reprogramming Smoke to become his loyal ally, Noob planned to use the machine’s nano-technology to conquer the Netherealm by using Smoke himself as a template to create an army of Cyber Demons, an army that Quan Chi could not overcome.

During the final stages of his plan when the Brotherhood returned to the Netherealm, Noob Sabot’s plan was put on hold by the sudden arrival of Team Faust, who had been tricked into the realm by the Holy Knights. Noob planned to use this to his advantage, to eliminate Quan Chi and conquer the Netherealm n one fell swoop.

While impersonating one of Quan Chi’s royal guards, he left the sorcerer at the mercy of Hiei, who ripped him apart, sparing his medallion for his own use when the time came. Noob was then free to set his sights on his goal, all it took was for himself and Smoke to destroy Team Faust.

After sealing X in a powerful genjutsu and luring the rest of the team into the feeding grounds of the savage demons Draimin and Moloch, Noob battled against Tobi and Hiei, the only remaining warriors. The fight turned into Noob’s favour after nearly killing Tobi and rendering Hiei unconscious. However that all changed when he attacked by Kevin Mask and Smoke.

For whatever reasons for his betrayal, though Smoke insisted that his honour had been restored, Noob found it unforgivable and attacked them both. The fight was interrupted by the arrival of an new entirety; the former ruler of the Netherealm and Fallen Elder God, Shinnok.

He declared that he had been waiting for the moment Noob would lead Quan Chi to his death, waiting to take the opportunity to take his medallion and break free of the hellhole he had been banished to. Noob reckless attacked him, but was imprisoned by his dark magic. Team Faust, who had managed to kill both Draimin and Moloch, began their assault on the Dark God, but found that in their weakened state they could barely even land a hit on him.

Seeing it as a last resort, Noob freed X from his genjutsu, who quickly after a quick study of the situation, freed the Wraith, claiming that they needed all the fire power they needed. During the fight, X managed to uncover his weakness of the spirit that possessed his body and offered his immortality. Noob Saibot and Smoke joined in a tag team and using both opposing forces of sorcery and science managed to kill off the beast, and destroy the soul of the dark ruler.

In repayment for sparing their lives, Noob managed to create a portal back to Earthrealm. X offered a counter-offer, considering their impressive skills and for helping them survive the ordeal, they offered them a chance to join their team. Noob declined, reminding them that he was evil through and through, unfortunately Smoke had other ideas, reminding him of the honour they both had to uphold as former members of the Lin-Kuei, Noob still wan't conviced, that is until Tobi managed to release the chains holding him to the Netherealm, turning him back to human form with the ability to switch between them both, for this he accepted; thus making Noob-Smoke official members of Team Faust.

Ever since, he worked in secret on preparing the technology for the army's awakening, careful to not arouse suspicion of the Brotherhood of Shadow, the group in which Noob had to remain unsuspected until the amry's completion. Though firecely loyal, Smoke had his own dreams, though he dwelt in the body of a cyborg, he still felt human emotions and the dreams that acompanied them. His true dream was to become whole, to let his nanobot technology become a single enterity and be at peace, much like the sky.

On the day that the army was set for completion, their plans were accelarated with the arrival of Team Faust. Seeing this as an oppotunity to complete the army and eliminate the Brotherhood of Shadow in a single battle. After Quan Chi was killed, Smoke started his primary mission and launched a surprise attack on the group. He led them into the den of the demons Drahmin and Moloch before trapping them with a basic kido spell.

As he prepared to unleash the army, he was intercepted by Kevin Mask and Shadow, who had managed to use Chaos Control to escape the kido. Shadow claimed that he was outdated and useless excuse for a machine because of his emotions; this aggrivated Smoke to the extent that he forgot about releasing the army and attacked them in a blind rage. Using his nanobot technology, he managed to subdue Shadow before preparing to kill Kevin, who unexpectedy challenged him to Mortal Kombat, a fair fight that Smoke could not refuse.

Halfway through the fight, Kevin began interogating the cyborg, questioning his honour and why he fought alongside such a creature. Smoke reffered to his programming, how he was sworn to fight, Noob Saibot was his master. Kevin insisted though and told him the words of which he stood by; 'You always have a choice'. The words began to reach into Smoke's human side, stalling him long enough for Kevin to turn the tide of the battle and defeat him with a 'Big Ben Bash'.

Despite winning the fight, and obiding by the rules of combat someone had to die. Kevin refused, saying that it would be unhonourable of him to deprive Smoke the chance to regain his humanity. Smoke at that point, decided that he would live his own life, and forcefully deactivated his mission to serve Noob. Hoping to honour the chance that Kevin had given him, he promised to assit him in the fight and help Team Faust escape the Netherealm.

Keeping to his word, he helped save Tobi and Hiei from Noob killing them both, evoking the wrath of the shadow ninja. They were evenly matched and would have reached a stalemate i not for the appearance of the Fallen Elder God, Shinnok. Shinnok's plan from the beginning had been to take hold of the Cyber Demon Army and lead an assault on Earthrealm, all he needed was either the Medallion of Quan Chi or the power of Chaos Control.

After a tireless battle, it became evident that the Dark God was too powerful, and seemingly immortal. Even with the combined might of Team Faust, who had defeated the demon pair and escaped, and his nanobot technology weren't enough. Things took a different turn as Noob and the previously genjutsu-trapped X Prodigy joined the fight. After a devastating attack, Shinnok's weakness was discovered. A dark soul that had feasted on 10,000; enough lifeforce to heal from any wound. In order to cut off the link, Noob and Smoke joined forces once again, using a tag team of science and sorcery they managed to break the Fallen God.

In gratitude for sparing them, Noob created a portal back to Earthrealm so Team Faust. X Prodigy had a second offer, an offer to join their team and leave the Netherealm forever. As a sign of good faith, Tobi managed to supress Smoke's nanobot technology, transforming him into an advance cyborg warrior. He apologised that because his body had suffered so much torture and was more machine than man, he could not return him to human form like he could Noob. Smoke was still grateful, this would allow him freedom from the inbalance in his mind because of the two seperate being he now existed as. After persuading Noob and to repay their honour, both agreed to join; making Noob-Smoke offcial members of Team Faust.

Analysis: The tenth member to be recruited by Author Fighter, X Prodigy. Raimundo was a surfer from Brazil before moving to the far-east to train at the Xiaolin Temple, where he would become one of the elemental warriors to fight against the Heylin, and recover sacred aartifacts known as the Shen-Gong-Wu with magical properties. After being named leader to the group and successfully defeating the Heylin by sealing away their Dark Goddess inside a puzzle box and gaining the last of the Wu, Raimundo was confident that the following years would be peaceful and taht the forces of darkness would dare not attempt another attack.

After four months of peace, Raimundo awoke one day to waht appeared to be an assault on the temple, expecting it to be the Heylin; Raimundo charged out into battle, ready to defeat either Wuya or Jack Spicer for the final time. He was, however, taken by suprise when he saw that the attckers were made up of ten figures cloaked in white robes; calling themselves the Holy Knights. All four Xiaolins attcked as one with a whole arsenal of Shen-Gong-Wu, but were stopped in their tracks by an old enemy; Chase Young, wearing a similar white robe.

The Dragon-Warrior had joined the Knights, after appraently witnessing the power of their leader for himself, and was offered a place if he proved his worth; he chose his own task, to kill of all of the Xiaolin Warriors. Raimundo led the counter attack, even calling on the monks of the temple to fight along side them. The fight was long and bloody, but Chase Young had grown considerably stronger and was fighting back faster and stronger than ever. After killing off the monks minus their teacher, Master Fung, he allowed himself to trasform into his dragon state, and killed their master with one move.

Now fuelled by vengeance, all the Xiaolins attacked together, using every Shen-Gong-Wu at their disposal. Chase Young though, using a fraction of his power, managed to kill Omi, the Wudai Warrior of Water, and by doing so took the sacred power of the Buddist Mark, increasing his power to such an extend that the temple began to crumble. Using this power he killed off the remaining two, leaving only RaimundO alive. Too filled with sorrow to react quickly enough, Chase Young unleashed a powerful burst of energy, destroying the entire temple.

Raimundo managed to survive the explosion, but all resisdents and Shen-Gong-Wu were obliterated, as he lay uncoinscious beneath the rubble, he was awakened by faint voices outside the ruins, after hearing the Holy Knights mentioned, he jumped out and attacked without mercy, quickly being knocked back down by Hiei. After a brief exchange of heated words, the group revealed themselves to be Team Faust, who were now in pursuit of the Holy Knights to their hidden base. Raimundo pleaded to help join the fight andtake vengeance on Chase Young, most were opposed to it, but the leader known as X Prodigy held sympathy to his lost, and allowed him to travel with them in combat.

Before heading out, Rai took the only avaliable weapon he could use in the fight, the Spear of Guan, the chained weapon he had earned from training under a great warrior from the Heylin War, and the only other survivor; Dojo the mystical dragon, who too was pained by the great loss. As they set out, Raimundo quickily got aquainted with the two more freindly members of the team; Tobi and Fry, who both had tragedies of their own, as the three got to know eah other, Team Faust were got under heavy fire from five members of the Holy Knights; Slade, Grievous, Mars, Ogichi and Chase Young.

As the battle carried out, Rai quickly found his way to Chase, and both began their epic fight. With only the spear as a weapon and even with his mastery of wind manipulation, Rai wasn't any match for the infamous Buddist Marks, amplifying the Dragon-Master's by an insane degree. Before the finishing blow could be delivered, he was saved by Tobi and Fry, transformed in Sickness; consequaintly making Dojo faint. Both faired in the fight, but not beofre Chase revealed his secret weapon; a summon from the underworld known as the Lion Of Chaos.

Before both were killed, Rai did the only thing he could do; he challenged Chase Young to a Xiaolin Showdown, using Dojo and the Buddist Marks as a wager, much tot he dragon's dismay. The summon battle was between the two alone, leaving Team Faust and the Holy Knights on the sidelines. The battle was one of horrific proportions, Dojo not being able to keep up with the Chaos Lion's attacks even in his true dragon state. Rai and Chase fought to the death, leaving both battered and bruised. Chase continually taunted him about the death of his freinds, blaming him as a leader, how he did not protect them. The insults and taunts weighed heavily on Rai and suffered because of it, to the point where Chase was about to deliver the final attack that would end his life.

Much to his suprise, Rai managed to block and sustain a hold on Chase's attack, leaving both at a stalemate, Chase continually taunting him. As Rai was about to give in to the pain and loss, his hopes were saved when Tobi began to call out o him, reminding of what he was fighting for, this added with Kevin's cheer about his honour and Shadow's of how he was protecting their memories. Soon, all of Team Faust were cheering for him, which gave him the strength to contoune the fight, even giving Dojo the strength to hold of the Chaos Lion.

Chase decided to use the power of the Buddist Marks to its full extent, gathering an attack that would kill them both. Raimundo and Dojo attacked as one, releasing a brave attack, but against the Dragon-Master's feral strength, they could only last so long. As he held off his death; Rai heard the gentl voices of his freinds along the wind, each whispers of how they were safe, and how they each believed in him; listening to they're encouragments as well as Team Faust's, he allowed himsefl to take in theri power and with a burst of power, gained a new state of the Xiaolin Warrior known as the 'Wudai Galaxy Aurora', along with the next rank known as a 'Wudai Prophet'. Using this new power and sheer determination, he managed to defeat Chase and win the showdown, sealing away the Lion Of Chaos away forever as well.

Afterwards, Chase Young swore on his oath as a warrior that Raimundo would pay for his humilating defeat, and quickly left with the rest of the Holy Knights. Rai felt a sense of contentment, he hadn't secured his vengeance, but had proved he had what it took to defend the memories of his comrades. As he and Dojo set out to leave, X approched the both, stating that for one of such age to have such caliber was inspiring, and presented him with an offer to join the team. Realising that he had a chance to contiune to protect the world and defeat evil, Rai happily excepted along with an estatic Dojo who had been offered a chance to become the team's scout.

Analysis: The eleventh member to be recruited by Author Fighter, X Prodigy. Hinata was one of the Konoha 12 and the eldest of the Hyuga clan, one fo the most powerful shinobi clans with a powerful Kekkei Genkai known as the Byakugan, a powerful vision that enabled them to become powerful taijutsu masters and were revered as some of the best ninja from the Hidden Leaf. Despite this great legacy, Hinata is a very shy girl with many problems in her home life, and doesn't have any confidence in herself whatsoever, which led to her becoming what most people to be a disappointment, which only hurt her even more.

During a mission to the Forest Of Death, Hinata and her group were sent to camp out and escort some documents of important value to a very wealthy client, their path leading throuhh the forest to the north of the Fire Country. Being dismissed from training earlier due to her lack of confidence, Hinata was out gathering firewood for the coming cold night, feeling depressed and in low spirits about the mission, wondering if she would mess up. As she gathered the last of the wood by an old oak, the last thing she expected was to see a masked figure drop down, scaring the poor girl so much that she fainted.

When she woke up, she was being carefully cared for by a man with a spirally orange mask, he had made a fire and given her his cloak to keep her warm as night had rolled in fast as well as the cold. As she got up, the amn leapt over, nearly causing her to faint again, apologising continously for scaring her. He explained that he was scouting for his team, searching for mysterious people in white cloaks. Hinata; still very suspicious of the man, remained silent, but he persisted in trying to find out who she was, until he eventually got it out of her by telling her his name, which happened to be Tobi, and so she politely responded.

'I'm Hinata...', 'Hinata...its a beautiful name', which then ensured both to burst out in blushes for the next hour, as the night rolled on, Tobi frequently asked questions about her as he wanted to know everything about her, and seemed naturally intrested in her history, even her faliure at the Chunin exams. The subject weighed heavily on her, but Tobi managed to convince her that she was truly strong inside, and that caring and showing emotion was a true strength that a freind had taught him a while back, he embaressed the girl even further when he said she should smile more often because it made her look more pretty.

The next morning, Hinata set off by herself as Tobi had vanished by the morning, the whole incident had by accidental but it had indeed put a smile on her face. When she met up with her team, she quickly lied about her predicament, as she didn't want suspicion to placed around Tobi considering theri client had many enemies, one hostile group in particular named Team Faust. As Kurenai led her and her teammates, Kiba and Shino, to the edge of the forest, they entered a remote area hidden by the great roots, leaving them in shadow, it was there they met a man hidden in a white cloak, where Hinata instantly became suspicious. The man congradualted them on a job well down, ready to make the exchange, very eager to take the documents that Kurenai had kept secret.

Out of the darkness, a man covered in a black cloak leapt forward, kicking the client away and snatching the case, he then took out a kunai and headed towards the clien, ready to kill him. Before he could, he was attacked by Team 8 which gave the man the oppotunity to escape. The mysterious attacker managed to defeat both Kiba and Shino easily before putting up a resistance against Kurenai and her genjutsu, which he managed to reverse back on to her, however Hinata lanaded a successful hit, knocking back his hood, revealing the face of Tobi. Too stunned to do anything, Tobi quickly knocked her out before making his getaway.

When Hinata regained her coinsciousness, she was being looked down on by her team members, Kurenai stated that she allowed herself to beaten and therefore failed the mission, as if that wasn't bad enough, the client reamerged to reveal that not only had she lost documents essenital for the neighbouring countries economic survival, but had lost it to a man who wasn't only a member of the feared Akatsuki but also a member of Team Faust, leaving Hinata heartbroken at how Tobi had lied to her and used her.

As Team 8 headed back and rested of the final night of their journey, Hinata snuck out; angry and torn, and eager to get back the documents that she had lost, by using her Byakugan, she tried to find his chakra signature, and was suprised when she found a large group of chakra unlike any she had ever seen. Hiding in the darkness, she overheard the conversation, mostly which involved the documents, when she heard Tobi's voice, the feelings flowed through her and she attacked the gourp head on. Using the element of suprise she managed to snatch the doucment and make a run for it, but was caught off by a Chaos Spear, striking the back of her neck. She still managed however to escape using the escape jutsu, hearing echos of Tobi's voice.

Hinata returned in high spirits despite her wound, her Team less enthusiastic than she thought. It was then that the client reappeared out of the darkness, congradulating her on retireving the doucment, as she was supposed to. Hinata was greatly confused by this, and equally horrified when the clinet lunged what appeared to be a small ird made of clay at her, which let loose a powerful explosion, sending her tumbling to the ground. She painfully opened her eyes to see her team standing next to the client, some of them even smirking. The client revealed to her that he expected her to try and retrieve the documents because of imminent faliure, and that she just handed the documents over to the greatest threat to humanity, known as the Holy Knights. Kurenai had been part of the plan because he had promised to destroy Konoha, as she now only wished pain to be caused to the village that had given her lover, Asuma, the mission that took his life, Kiba and Shino were just in it for the money.

Hinata relelised that she had been tricked and betrayed, using her weakness to serve her own gain, if there ever had been a time when her heart shatered, it was then. The client then spoke out that she was no longer of any use, and sent another explosive her way. Before it killed her, she was swept out of the way by a masked figure, who just so happened to be Tobi, who held her close. Realising that he had been the good guy all along made her feel even worse for her betrayal. Suddenly, several other figures appeared, forming a barrier around the two, revealing themselves to be Team Faust. The leader, calling himself X Prodigy, demanded to know who he was. The client lowered his hood with a howling laugh, the figure was only known to Tobi.

The man was knwon as Deidara, a former member of the Akatsuki and Tobi's partner, but now revealed himself to be a member of the Holy Knights, not only that, but he was second in command, the second strongest next to the leader. After that, a terrible fight rolled out, Team 8 even stepping into to try and kill Team Faust. Hinata stayed hidden while Tobi fought Deidara, suprisingly, they were evenly macthed, while the rest quickly dealt away with the traitorous Team 8. As the battle rolled out, she saw that Deidara was sending exlposives in the shapes of humming-birds towards most of the team. As one was about to kill Yourichi and Shadow, she stepped in and took the hit, leaving her many burns and wounds. At this, Tobi went mad with hatred and used his Sharingan to burn away nearly half the forest. The battle seemed to be over, but that thought was forgotten when Deidara unleashed a new swarm of expoding clay creatures, nearly killing off the entire team. When the explosions ceased, the only ones's standing were X, Raimundo and Tobi. Hinata could only watch as the artistic-killer let loose off more explosions, keeping the Hollow Devil and Xiaolin Warrior at bay. Deidara then cast his sights on her, claiming that she was well past her usefulness and set a dangerous clay-bird stright for her, as she waited for death to take her, she was suprised to see Tobi leap forward and take the hit for her, sending him flying to floor, lifeless.

At this gesture, Hinata felt anger boil up inside her again, but it was a righteous anger, and she managed to summon unknown strength from inside her, and stepped into the fray of battle. Activating her Byakugan, she leapt for Deidara who was simply laughing at her attempts, surprisingly to him and everyone else, Hinata's skill had vastly increased, no longer afraid and using her Byakugan to avoid his exploding clay, and was quickly assited by Raimuno and X. Deidara was getting vastly annoyed by their constant attacks, and summoneda large explosive bird in the shape of a vulture, and sent it flying towards the group. Before it could reach them, Hinata intercepted and used her technique 'Eight Trigrams, 64 Palms' to stop the attack, she then used all of her chakra in one powerful attack, the 'Eight Trigrams, 128 Palms'. Though it didn't kill Deidara, it did leave him seriously wounded. As he made hsi escape, he did leave one promise to Team Faust. 'Sparda's Twin shall be the downfall of you'.

Afterwards, Hinata felt her heart ache for Tobi's death, which was short-lived when the masked shinobi awakened from his wound, reasons behind it; 'I'm not dead until someone crushes my will, and there isn't a person alive who can'. Hinata then apologised for mistaking them for villains, and was deeply saddened that her team had betrayed the village, saying she was not fit to return with the disgrace she carried. She was then approched by X, who said that she was stronger than she thought, she just needed to be taught how to use her power and the best way would be for her to join their team, where she could blossom as a true kunochi. Tobi was over the moon and the others were happy to have her aboard, Hinata was star-struck, but in the end agreed, knowing that her destiny lay on this path.
