"The string dial." said Shura seeming completely calm now. Noah was motionless, his defeat was inevitable, only Shura knew the location of the strings which he placed, he was in control of the battle field.
"Nice work." said Noah still confined to his spot. He couldn't even reach for his sword. Shura jumped into the air coming down on Noah with his jousting lance. striking him in the shoulder but also freeing him from the bonds of the strings.

Noah couldn't be sure of exactly where the remained of the strings were but if he could remember Shura's movements he could pinpoint the possible locations that which they had been placed. Noah knew he owned a string dial as well, but using it now would just hinder his chances of escaping the current strings.
He looked around. He had most likely been trapped in the ones Shura planted with his aerial attack so using Shura's footprints would be vital in determining the string placement.

Noah took out his cutlass and attempted to cut one of the threads, it was extremely hard to see but he had a keen enough eye. Not matter how much force he applied the string did not slice. Thus proving just how powerful dials could be. Getting caught in another string trap such as the prior one would nearly.
Shura realized what Noah was doing, "Are you that dense kid? Our dials are not of your world, you cannot hope to learn their secrets in such a short time." Noah smirked he had already figured out the majority of the dial and its uses, he still had one thing to learn.

He still didn't know how to use the dial. Once he could learn that he would be able to finish this little brawl. He took the dial in his hand it looked somewhat similar to the reject dial. He continued to look at it, Shura wouldn't approach as long as the strings surrounded Noah. Jumping in the air would be too dangerous considering the true limitations of the strings were unknown but if Noah was correct, they could be made in the air.
He held the dial tighter. "Crap. I have to figure this out soon." time had nearly run out before long Shura would have a wide open shot at him.

Shura laughed as he jumped into the air. Noah had been wrong, Shura was willing to risk landing in his own strings for an attack. Noah had no time left but he was still free of the strings. He realized that if Shura was willing to jump into the air then it must have been safe.
He jumped into the air using the same path as Shura but reversing it. The two met. Sword to sword, this time Shura applied equal force to the magnetic field, neither of the two were affected by the magnet's power. But both were tossed back into the strings. It was then that Noah realized how to use the string dial. A bit to late though.

Shura, even though caught seemed oddly calm.
"Why so calm Shura, at this rate we may never get out." said Noah fairly confident that neither of them would be able to leave the stringed area.
"Wrong." he said placing a heat dial on the string, making the string catch flame which spread towards Noah at a rapid rate.
Noah couldn't move and he knew that trying to would be a struggle that he'd ultimately lose. He tried to think but nothing was coming to him.

He quickly created two threads of string directly towards Shura. The flame was moving closer, hence dials such as the string dial could be used in conjunction with something like the heat dial to create a potent attack.
He tried to reach of his heat dial but he couldn't move his arms.
He then got an idea. He used reject dial to blow himself out of the threads of string and into the air giving him enough time to grab his heat dial before falling into the sea of stings once more.
"Gotcha." he said noticing the fire coming towards him even quicker now.

Using the same technique as Shura, Noah ignited a flame onto one of the strings which was rather close to Shura. Of course the fire would get to Noah before it got to Shura considering Shura ignited his flame first but Noah might be able to take the attack better than Shura.
As the flame advanced Noah bit his lower lip, this was it. It was all depending on the endurance of both men, which ever one could last would win, both men would probably become seriously injured no matter which outcome came.

As the flame reach Noah he used his jet dial to throw himself outside the reach of the flames.
He fell back into more strings but avoided the heated strings by a few inches. At the same time Noah's flaming strings hit Shura making him catch fire.
Both men were still trapped but had an idea, one that would be able to get him out of the strings for good.
Shura continued to burn when he shouted something, words that Noah didn't understand at which point his large bird swooped down grabbing Shura with its claws.

Tossing Shura into the air, the bird released him from the confinements of the sea of strings.
Noah was still stuck but he figured that Shura wouldn't go in for a direct attack considering both he and his bird could easily be trapped by the strings. Even though their confrontation was over for now he was almost positive that he'd either run into people similar to him or even him once more.
Noah took his time untangling himself, it took several hours but eventually he got out of there.

Noah was on his way out of Skypiea when he found himself to be in an unfamiliar place. He had learned many things here however it had been a long time before he saw anyone. He looked around but no one was in sight so he decided to rest for awhile. The place itself was very tranquil and had the most greenery he had ever seen. He lay in the grass just waiting until he felt up to walking again. As he looked at his surroundings he noticed something extremely odd he couldn't tell what was so odd about it but something seemed off.

He kept staring at the area, it looked as though something was there. He felt strange, someone might have been watching him or something. He continued to watch until he eventually threw a stone. Nothing happened. he must have been wrong. Feeling at ease he went back to resting and contemplating his 'grand pirating plan'. He would have to make it good if he ever wanted to realize his life long dream. It was at that moment he heard a twig snap and quickly turned around.

"Anyone there?" Noah began to freak out. He grabbed his cutlass and took it out. He cautiously advanced to the nearby trees. There was no response. He randomly began to swing but hit nothing. My mind is just playing tricks on me thought Noah to himself. "Hello..." said an unknown voice. Noah shouted in fear and ran into a bush, "Whose there?!" he shouted. Something supernatural might have been happening in Skypiea he had no clue what was going on.

"I am." said the same voice. Noah couldn't see anyone this was crazy. "ARE YOU A GHOST?!" shouted Noah not knowing what to expect. "God no. Well maybe, I am not really sure right now." said the voice. Noah started to fire bullets all around. Then out of nowhere a man arose from a tree. "WHAT THE HECK!" shouted Noah realizing it was just a regular guy. "What did you expect, a ghost?" said the guy with a straight face. He had a scar on his head and was wearing a hat.

Noah frowned, he was disappointed in himself for acting scared but he now knew a method of hiding and a good one at that. "Thanks." said Noah walking off. The man was confused. "What the heck did that guy just thank me for?" he asked himself. Noah kept walking off thinking of great uses for his new skill he would be awesome with that trick. At that moment he heard the foot stops of someone behind him. He turned around his eyes widened and he braced himself.
