It was a nice day. Why was it a nice day? Because It was Alex`s first day at his new school. The day itself wasn`t that great actually. Class was boring, teachers were boring and students would, at best, look you funny and, at worst, try to hit you if you tried to establish contact. The reason Alex thought it was a nice day was because he was now alone. He was free from his dependence of his mother. Free at last! He would start his life now, and everything he accomplished, he would have accomplished himself.
It was lunch time and Alex was in the cafeteria. After getting his food, which looked almost but not quite edible. But Alex didn`t care. He was happy. He decided to try his luck at making new friends again here. He searched the room until he saw a group of people at a table. It was a pretty big group. Two tables had been brought together for everyone to fit. Alex walked up to the guy closest to Alex. At the table Alex waited a sec until the guy noticed him. Alex took his right hand out of his pocket and brought it in position for a hand shake.
Alex:'Hello there. My name is Alex. I`m new around here.'
The boy looked at Alex and frowned. 'This was probably new for him or something. A friendly handshake. Strange...' Alex started to think his action made him look stupid. The guy stood up. He was big. About 6'4" Alex thought. That was almost a whole foot higher then Alex.
The big boy just stood there still saying nothing. Alex tried the handshake thing again.
Alex:'Eh... Hi?'
The big boy still just standing there. After a deadly silence the big guy started to laugh. But it wasn`t a friendly laugh at all. It was more of a 'I`m gonna crush you and you have no idea' kind of laugh. Alex had seen this laugh all to much because of his tendency to just approach random strangers and try to become friends.
The big guy looked at his table. A few members of the table started laughing as well the same way this big boy was.
Alex:'I must warn you.'
Alex pointed at a random someone. He had no idea who he was pointing to, or if he was pointing to anyone at all. He didn`t want to take his eyes of the big guy.
Alex:'That person is a good friend of mine. So if you try anything!'
Alex said that a little more aggressive then he wanted, but it seemed to work. Or maybe it was because of the person Alex was pointing at. Alex decided to look at the person finding out, to his most unpleasant surprise, that the person had seen him. Alex waved uncomfortably to the person. He was still standing at the table and didn`t want to make a strange impression. He looked at the table. The big guy was sitting again but the table wasn`t the same as before. There was a deadly silence. Alex decided to walk away. He had no idea were he was going. He could be going to the exit of the cafeteria or somewhere towards the person he just pointed to, he didn`t know. He was thinking about what just happened and why nobody will just shake his damn hand.
Alex:'Not many friendly people around here. I`m starting to wonder if it`s possible to get any friend in this place without having to fight for it.'

Gabriel looked up from his solitude in the corner of the cafeteria to the sounds of laughter and then a small and fairly unconfident voice rise up.
'That person is a good friend of mine. So if you try anything!'
noticing that the fingure was pointed directly at him, a quick scowl escaped his lips and everyone at the table adjacent to him seemed to quite down.
When Gabriel's eyes gazed back up to where the kid was staring he found the space open and vaccant. Rapidly his eyes glared over the room trying to catch him.
And there he was.
Looks like he was trying to make a quick get away, not sure of what he'd done.
before he could reach the exit however Gabriel was on the door and quickly slammed it shut, making no noise with his quick and graceful movements.
His eyes darted down to eye up the kid.
One swift motion of his arm would attempt to grab him and take him outside without drawing attention from onlookers.
"this kid is lucky he ran into me before someone else got him" he thought to himself keeping his eyes forward.

Alex was, without noticing, heading for the exit of the cafeteria. Putting his thoughts aside he focused on where he was going. He stopped. What was he doing? He had just been pointing to some random person, was caught doing it and was now making a quick leave. He should at least head back to the person and apologize or something.
Alex was about to turn around, when he grabbed. By who he didn`t know. He tried to look but the persons grip was to strong and Alex couldn`t turn his head enough to see who it was. Thinking back it would have been a good idea to shout or struggle but he didn`t. He just didn`t think of doing it at the time.
After a few meters of being grabbed and doing nothing he was finally let loose. Alex looked at his kidnapper finding out it was the boy he pointed at. 'Shit' Alex thought. What was going to happen now? If people in this school were willing to beat him up for trying to shake there hands, Alex didn`t want to know what someone would do if they saw you point at them. Alex didn`t know if the guy had heard him or not. He hoped not as it wouldn`t really help the situation. He would try to get to know if the boy had heard him or not. If not he could maybe talk his way out of this one.
I-I`m sor-sorry for back-k there.
Alex was stuttering in fear and wasn`t making any effort to hide it. This guy was a hell of a lot stronger then the guy from before. Alex could feel it. If Alex had to fight the guy from a while back, he would have won that fight. Maybe even without taking any damage, but with this guy he wasn`t sure at all. Alex would try to keep it as cool as possible.
I j-just d-didn`t want to f-fight back there.
Alex had no idea if saying this was a good move. People could easily assume he didn`t want to fight because he was either to scared or to weak, which he was neither.
Sorry

The boy was studdering wildly trying to avoid a fight, Gabriel caught that and thought it was a crack up, though his face couldn't show it he remained cold and lifeless to this kid, he was gonna make him regret causing a rouse out of him.
his eyes faded to topaz and glared at the kid once he was released from Gabriel's iron grip, he noticed he'd dragged the kid outside near an uncrowded corridor on the front lawn of the school.
"Sorry" a quiet plea came from the kid,
"sorry, sorry?" Gabriel thought, "this kid needs a crash course, good thing he didn't run into someone worse than me."
Gabriel's eyes faded back to their normal emerald and his face loosened from its tense poise.'
"come on kid lets see what you got." he said, his tone relaxed and comforting hoping his expression would sooth the kid rather than scare him to run off.
"your not gonna get far doing what you've done so far." Gabriel said as he readjusted his focus on the kid's body, looking for any sudden movements, any reaction, ready for a fight.

OOC: Sorry for not posting yesterday. It was by birthday party. I didn`t touch the computer the whole day.
IC: Alex`s apology didn`t work. In fact the boy seemed to become even more annoyed, if that`s what you can call it.
Come on kid lets see what you got.
Alex started biting his underlip. Dammit! What was up with people and fighting? Hadn`t they ever heard of talking to solve conflict instead of using it as a means to provoke or declare a fight? Alex looked up to his now challenger. This wasn`t going to be a serious fight. This guy really just wanted to see what Alex was made of. Alex figured that out by the challengers calm voice. Still, though. This was a fight and Alex knew this guy wouldn`t hold back just because it was for sports.
your not gonna get far doing what you've done so far.
This caused Alex to bite his lip even harder, until it started to hurt and he stopped. He knew it! Fighting was the only way in this school. *Sigh* Alex loosed up. Everything in this school resolved around fighting. Making friends as well. "If fighting is the only way of getting friends in this place." He thought.
"Then I`ll make friends by fighting."
Alex said this out loud. He didn`t know if the boy heard him nor did he care. They were gonna fight anyway.
"Alright then. Challengers go first."
Alex stood there with his arms wide open inviting a first attack. Alex was now fighting. He was not the o so friendly little kid anymore. He was now completely focused on the fight. Which was necessary for his dodge hit style.

(OCC: hey dont worry about it i've been out all weekend with junk i've had to do, wouldn't even be on today if my dad hadn't let me hang out with my friends.)
IC:
"Alright then. Challengers go first." his opponent shouted in Gabriel's direction,
Gabriel didn't necessarily enjoy bieng the first to strike but the first to do damage.
He also noticed something about his opponent had change his stature had become that of an actual fighter, loose and ready for anything, rather than a scared little boy he'd seen wander the cafeteria.
"Ok then" Gabriel said, by the time the words left his lips he had already been on top of the kid bearing down with most of his weight in his right fist flashing an inhuman slug aimed at his opponents cheek. His hope was to try and catch his opponent off gaurd before he had time to react.

"Ok then."
It was now official. The fight had started. Even before Alex had time to process this thought the boy was in front of him. Most people would say this guy was fast but for Alex, this was nothing out of the ordinary (OOC: I`m comparing stats here).
With not much difficulty Alex did a step back, enough for the fist to fly right past his face, almost touching his nose. After dodging the attack Alex would attempt to thrust his knee in his opponents stomach. Because Alex had to move backwards and was now moving forward, his attack would take a split second before it could be executed. Alex knew this but didn`t really care. He was going to attempt to analyze this guy before giving it his all.

His weight mostly forward into his punch, Gabriel had little time to react when his opponent drove his knee into Gabriel's chest causing him to nearly double over, but he was quick enough to avoid losing his balance and drove a quick left jab directed at his advisarie's lower jaw
A lucky shift of weight.
maybe the balence of this fight hadn't been decided quite yet.

Alex`s attack had connected. And there his opponent was. Flipping right in front of him. Alex thought it was quite the amusing sight. But before Alex could amuse himself further he felt a pain coming from his left jaw. "What the..." Alex stood as strong as he could to not get blow away. Yes this would increase the damage of the attack but it would still keep Alex in range for him to attack.
The boys attack had landed. The attack hurt even more because Alex didn`t want to fly back but the attack wasn`t as strong as the first attack by a long shot, so Alex thought he could take this one. More importantly, his opponent was now in front of Alex, half in the air, and they were staring at each. Alex jumped in the air and did a spin kick aimed at his opponent`s left side (from his opponent`s point of view). This attack had a lot more force then his previous attack. He wanted to make up for getting hit.

Gabriel landed from his assault facing directly into his opponent's angered eyes, at that moment it seemed as if time had stopped, only for an instant however and that moment quickly ended followed by the boy hurtling through the air sending a quick spin kick.
However this short instant gave Gabriel time to react, he attempted to use the flat of his hand to knock his opponents foot off its intended target, it wouldn't completely unscathe him but it would however protect him from the blunt force of the damage, following this he would intend to bring a solid roundhouse kick to his opponent's face hoping to disable him if only even for a moment.

"Tsch... he blocked" Alex thought. Time stood still for a second again. Because of the force of the kick, it would take a sec before the entire momentum of the attack had vanished. In this second Alex noted his opponents foot moving towards him. What now? He was in the air, falling slowly and a kick was headed his way. then it hit Alex (an idea, not your foot  ). He threw all his weight backwards. the kick would fly over him, he would land on his hands and jump backwards making a flip in the air to land on his feet. Alex was now a few feet away from his opponent. It didn`t matter. He knew enough. his opponent seems to be the type to take a hit to give a hit. that would explain his below average speed and his huge power. Not bad.Alex said loudly. Your pretty strong.Alex paused for a moment before saying with a wide cheerful smile: I`m Alex.Again Alex would stand there with his arms open, inviting an attack. but now it was different. He knew his opponent`s style and would act accordingly now. He would not get hit! (OOC: He wishes) Nice to meet you. |

Gabriel couldn't believe it this kid shifted his weight backwards and narrowly avoided an almost crippling attack
"Damm!" he thought to himself, "this kid is quick"
"Not bad."
Alex said loudly.
"Your pretty strong."
Alex paused for a moment before saying with a wide cheerful smile, "I`m Alex."
"And I am Gabriel, Glad to meet you" Gabriel replied honorably
"Gotta change things up" he thought to himself while this momentary lapse had occurred.
"Nice to meet you." Alex replied
now it was time for an all out fight, time for the blood to spill, "sorry alex but this time is mine!" Gabriel muttered to himself with the rage building within him.
he lead it open with an all out charge but this time rather than putting all his weight into his attack he held back a little as to bounce back and drive another punch as to follow where alex would dodge to. His fist drove aimed directly at his opponents nose, if he hit he'd follow with another just as powerful if he'd mis he would drive back on his feet and quickly jab another thrust to where his opponent would retreat.

"sorry Alex but this time is mine!" Alright. Now we would see the peak of this guys power. The absolute best he could. To Alex`s surprise the guy, which was named Gabriel, bashed forward again. What? Another frontal attack? For something like that to work, someone needed to be much faster then his opponent, which Gabriel wasn`t. *Sigh* Oh well... The attack came. A frontal punch to the face. At the start of the fight, Gabriel had done the same thing and Alex noticed that Gabriel wasn`t able to dodge after such an attack. Alex ducked. Dodging his first attack. But what Alex didn`t know was that a second attack was coming. Apparently Gabriel hadn`t put his all in the previous punch. Shit! So Gabriel wanted to play this smart huh? Well two can play that game. Alex couldn`t dodge the upcoming punch but he didn`t have to. Alex punched Gabriel's hand with all his strength. It had worked. Gabriel`s attack had stopped but Alex`s fist was busted. It was bleeding and bones had probably dislocated. Not only that, but Alex`s humerus was probably dislocated as well. It was safe to say that this arm was useless for the rest of the fight. But the fight wasn`t over yet. Alex was still ducked in front of Gabriel and he wasn`t going to miss that chance. With his other hand and everything he had, all his power, and all his speed (specially speed) he attempted a dragon punch at Gabriel's chin. \/ Dragon Punch \/ (just in case) youtube.com/watch?v=K7PKI5Rott8&feature=relatedThe chance that Gabriel would dodge this attack was small. However, Alex had now idea what would happen after the attack. Gabriel`s constitution was high. it could be that Gabriel would lose this fight right here but if he were to stand up. Alex had no idea what would happen next, but what he did know was, the attack would probably land. (OOC: I`m not trying to tell the attack will land. If you find a way to dodge, by all means do so. I just wanted to make clear that you would need a whole lot to dodge this attack, as Alex pretty much put all his speed he had in it). |

(OCC: haha love the little 'tekken like vid' haha, ok not intending to dodge fear my constitution muhuhahahhaha *evil laughter* i'm not intending to use my Qi quite yet, hence the not going all out, mainly cause its not quite finished & the fact that it is supposed to b very dangerous not only to you but to my guys sanity and i'd hate to go insane quite yet lolz)
IC:
Gabriel came down with his other hand with alot of force driving it deep, but Alex was faster, he drove his fist up to deflect most of the force protecting his head, and an outright victory for Gabriel at the sacrifice of his fists, risky very risky,
before Gabriel could think on the matter Alex crouched down and drove a fist into Gabriel's exposed jawline sending him doubling over in surprise, the swift attack nearly imobilized him.
Luckily he had back up far enough away from Alex as to not be beaten down again he had time to recover from the blow.
Catching a quick glance up to see if his opponent was doing the same with his own injuries, Gabriel wiped away the blood dripping from the corner of his lips.
"Hmmm, the kids got talent" Gabriel thought to himself.
with that he got to his feet struggling a little to regain balance
"would you be interested in a proposition?" he shouted with the remnants of breath he'd just recovered.

(OTC: I DO fear your constitution! ) "would you be interested in a proposition?" HELL YES! Alex thought. Alex `did`t like to fight much, and his opponent asking for a proposition sounded like music to his ears. But he did`t want to give off the wrong impression. He could`t just shout "Of course!" It would seem like he wanted to end the fight as soon as possible (which was true, but no reason to show his opponent that). Alex stood up with some difficulty. He wans`t hit in the legs the whole fight. He figured this hardship probably came from him being tired. "Sure"Alex said in his much to friendly voice. Alex was happy. The fight would be over soon. He would get his arm checked up because it was killing him. Alex grinned again as he said, almost laughing. "What did you have in mind" |
