The roads in the Diablo Desert have long been treacherous. Even a cautious traveler, sticking to the beaten path and making few or no stops on their journey through the region, can run into trouble. But a daring few opt to put their trust in their vehicles' navigation systems, charting 'shortcuts' through the rolling wastes. When it works, those few manage to reach their destinations well ahead of schedule: a laurel in the cap for any hauler or merchant with business on the other side of the sands. But more often than not, that gamble leads right into a trap. A reckless traveler is a sweet sight for a bandit worth his salt.
Today, that script was set to be flipped. The newest traveler to brave the sands and cut well off of the road was none other than Kohi, a young martial artist -- though there was little to identify him as anything special when compared to every other rank-and-file fighter that crowd the monasteries. He wore a heavy brown cloak over his gi, and a wide-brimmed straw hat to keep the sun out of his eyes. He carried his belongings in a drawstring bag over his shoulder. He might not have looked like a promising target, but wandering right through bandit territory -- it was too good to pass up.
The hum of engines sounded all around as a group of bandits, all clad with distinctive green bandanas tied around their arm, moved to swarm around their supposed victim. But as the first of their hoverbikes tried to swoop around him to block his path of escape, he twisted to follow it, moving with speed well beyond that of the usual civilian targets the bandits were used to. Before the bandit knew what was happening, Kohi fired an orb of yellow ki straight towards his vehicle. It collided with the front, setting the engine in smoke and blasting the bandit clear onto the sand, his ride little more than burning wreckage in an instant.
A handful of the other bikes began to peel off, recognizing the trap -- though they might not have quite comprehended it yet. For those that sought to flee, the martial artist had something rather more deadly to offer. He raised his hand in the air, beginning to channel his ki into a fully-fledged attack. Red energy burst to life, its glow seeming to cloak the entire area in a crimson shine. His eyes settled on the furthest of his targets, and he stepped forward and hurled the attack with all his might.
"Not only bandits, but cowards too?" he remarked, under his breath. "Your kind will be purged from this land."
