Keith's 1969 GTO Judge was parked on the side of the street at the entrance to the park. It was a bright full moon at night as the lunar light shined onto Keith's gloves giving off a bright blue glow in the left glove and a bright red blow in the right glove. Keith had to do something as he could feel his heart to beat more rapidly by the second.
It had seemed that the light has given him a burst of energy. Keith needed to expend that energy for he could continue driving. There, Keith found the park which seemed to be pretty quiet and peaceful. It would be the perfect place to get rid of this built up energy at the same time get used to these gloves. These gloves felt like weights around his hands.
These were special gloves that Keith had bought. They had cost a lot of money. He hoped that these gloves and abilities provided were well worth the money.
"Right, let's see what these gloves are made out of," Keith said to himself as he stood in an open area of the park nearby his parked GTO Judge. Taking a deep breath, Keith practiced a bit of She Quan aka "Snake Fist Kung-Fu". There was a lot of hand movements used with seemed to be a perfect way ot getting used to the gloves.
Closing his eyes, Keith would practice open hand strikes aimed for the neck, eyes, face, throat, groin, and other vital areas of the human body. What better way to get used to the gloves?

Angry. Chihiro was angry. Every nerve in her body was screaming, her blood boiling as she left the beach. Soon, she fell into a run. Running was good, it helped her blow off steam, and it was something she was doing more and more often lately. Soon enough, she'd made it to the park, where she ran along the path, winding through the trees until she reach the center. She clenched the sleeves of her hoodie over her fists, and clamped them over her mouth, and just s c r e a m e d.
Once all of the air was expelled from her lungs, she clenched and unclenched her fist in front of her. She was wearing her studded gloves, ...so, she wouldnt rip up her knuckles should she decide to take out her pent up frusteration on a tree or something. And thats what she decided to do, throwing back her left fist and running it into the tree. Followed by her right, then her left, then her right once more...

Sounds of fists hitting a tree?
Keith had raised an brow upon hearing the sound. It seemed that he wasn't the only one in the park. He had to investigate just in case there could be come crazy vagrant out for his cash and/or organs which does happen at times in the parks. People do get kidnapped just to have their organs harnessed for the highest bidder.
He couldn't just sprint over in that direction. Keith had to get used to his new gloves which would feel heavy over time. The college freshman had to take time to getting used to those gloves. But, he was feeling a burst of energy that was a result of the moon's light reflecting off the left glove.
As Keith got closer in that direction, the sounds got louder. Getting close enough, Keith could see a hooded figure punching up a tree. Seemed that this person decided to abuse a tree.
"Decided to abuse a tree?" Keith asked in his English accent not knowing who it was.

At the sound of a voice, Chi whipped around, her hood falling off her head to reveal raven hair pulled back into a ponytail. Her eye make up was darker than usual, because it streaked but she had long since wiped away the tears. She clenched and unclenched her fists.
"What do you want?"

"What do you want?"
Looking at the girl, she seemed a bit familiar. But Keith couldn't put his finger on it yet. It seemed that this girl was pretty pissed off and whatnot. Clearing his throat, Keith adjusted his shades for a bit. Maybe this would be a good time if Keith talked with his normal voice.
"I don't want anything. But I was distracted by the sounds of you abusing the tree right there... Seems like you have a lot of pent of anger and aggression in your system."
She seemed to be familiar. But Keith had to figure out who it was.

The changing of voices, or accents if you will. Even with the shades she still recognized his face and hair. But right now she wasn't in the mood for drama confrontations ('z0mg, he'd kissed me!) or wheeling and dealing. Chi was pissed off, and having some guy she'd only seen 3 or 4 times wasn't making it any better.
"What I do is none of your damned business. Now get out of my way before I abuse you too."
It was a threat, even with the sarcasm. In the state she was in, if anything so much as opposed her, she would strike at it. Without the light of Max and Aureus in her life, Chi was reverting back to her cold, relentless nature. Letting people in her life only left her open to get hurt, and she vowed never to do that again. Period.
"Move!"

"What I do is none of your damned business. Now get out of my way before I abuse you too."
Keith just stood there. Something was definitely up with Chi, Keith didn't know what it was. He would find out eventually. Seemed that Chi was definitely out for blood. But Keith didn't want to strike Chi at all. It wasn't in his code to strike a female.
Instead, Keith would find another way to fight.
"Move!"
Keith remained silent. He would wait to see what Chi would do to attack. Not knowing Chi that much, Keith didn't know what to think. But he knew that he was attracted to her.
It was battle mode. For the first time, Keith would remove those shades. He would look at Chi with such cold and expressionless eyes. It was combat mode and Keith was now in combat mode.
Without hesitation, Keith walked towards Chi like he was Robocop.

For a second, Chi paused. The way he was walking and the look in his eyes was kinda creepy. But she was still pissed beyond all belief and he was in her way. She had no choice but to strike.
Stepping off with her left foot, she then took an additional three steps forward to build up her momentum bending her knees slightly to lower her center of gravity and cocked back her left fist, aiming for the indent just below his ribcage to start. She would then fall backward onto her right then left hands, her left heel aiming for the same place as her legs would spring back over in a back-walkover of sorts to land back on her feet facing him.

Keith had to neutralize Chi as soon as possible. He was pretty sure something was up with Chi. Something had to be done as Chi downright charged at him. First, Keith would gauge what Chi was capable of. To do so, Keith would take Chi's hit head on as he could feel the fist hit him right below the ribcage.
Luckily, Keith had done a lot of conditioning to take hits. In combat, conditioning is a very important part. Without the proper conditioning, you're good as fucked. Keith had learned that the hard way in the past back at 552.
He could feel the punch. Luckily, it didn't hurt. It somewhat tickled a bit. Nothing to be concerned about. Then he took a good kick to that same area. Still, nothing to be concerned about just yet. Keith ignored the feeling and continued walking in Chi's direction. It was combat mode and Keith had to be a machine incapable of showing emotion in a fight.

What the fuck?! It didn't phase him. Chi knew that Keith was no robot, how could he just take when she'd thrown at him without even flinching? This simply made her even angrier. Narrowing her dark eyes, she widened her stance by shifting her feet before leaning to her left slightly and sending a crescent kick with her right foot to his shoulder, head, and neck area.
As her foot would come down, she would shift her weight once more, turning her body as she fell back onto her hands and with her right leg bent to hold herself up, sent a low sweeping kick at his legs. Her aim was to knock him off his feet, first by of centering his balance to the right with the crescent kick and usuing the sweeping kick to knock his feet to the left.

This time, Chi decided to attack him with a crescent kick with the left leg. Doing so should keep the left leg open. Using his speed, Keith would shoot his downwards and forward towards Chi's left leg. That was a flaw presented when kicking at your opponent. Keith had knowledge of Shooto or Shoot-Style Wrestling which had came in handy a number of times.
Shooting down, Keith would quickly grab Chi's left foot and scoop it forward in his direction. Should that be successful, Keith would take Chi down with a fast and swift Single-Leg Takedown. He could easily follow up with an ankle lock, but the point was to get Chi to expel all of that pent up energy.
This was the best way to go. Keith had the feeling that this could be a pretty long night.

"HAaaii!?"
Chi's hand shot out behind her to help soften her fall as he scooped up her foot. Once her hands collided with the ground she would growl with frustration, balancing on her right leg in a crouched position, her left shooting out in a quick, low crescent kick known as the monkey's foot to trip him up before rising back to a standing position.

Seemed that Chi wouldn't give up. Not that Keith had expected her to. Chi seemed to retaliate with a kick that was intended to trip him. Keith could counter but, he would let it connect. He could feel himself about to trip but staggered a bit to regain his balance. Perhaps Chi was using that move to by herself some time and gain some distance. But Keith had no problem with that.
It wasn't his intention to win the fight let alone win it quickly. His intention was to see what was up with Chi. As Keith staggered around a bit, he would regain balance and stare Chi right in the eyes should she stand to her feet.

"Leave. Me. Alone."
She growled, moving forward to push him squarely in the chest before aiming to go around him and away. Half of her wanted to fight, to kick his ass in order to vent out her frustration, and the other half just wanted to go home and crawl under a rock for a little while. This conflicting feeling made her alternate from striking and backing away, She wasn't sure what she really wanted to do.

"Leave. Me. Alone."
Keith could feel Chi push him away of the sort. He didn't know what Chi was going to do next. Fighting wasn't going to do anything. Keith didn't want to fight Chi at all. But for some reason, there was something definitely up with Chi. He didn't know what to think. Those emotions of anger and hatred were those same feelings that Keith had once felt.
He would do nothing next. Perhaps the best thing was to say something to Chi and then walk off.
"Anger doesn't look good on you," Keith replied back to Chi. He then added, "if you want me to leave alone, then it's done. I'll leave you alone then for you can cool off."
Slowly, Keith would slowly back away from Chi while keeping his eyes locked on her.
