First Place?

Ryu landed on the first rainbow cloud, his lips touched by a light smile.

An attack almost immediately came from his back, but his body shifted, becoming a stream of darkness. The beam of light passed right through him as though he were entirely intangible.

"If you want to prove your little lineage to be so great, attacking from the back isn't exactly what you should do, don't you think?"

Ryu didn't even look back at Young Master Bright, his eyes ahead. There was a peculiar feeling about this world of clouds.

The beam of light shot off into the distance, being swallowed up by the rainbow lights ahead and then vanishing.

Ryu looked down at his feet, feeling that there was solid ground beneath him, and yet not being able to sense exactly where it started and finished.
