Keith himself leaned against the side on one end of the skating ring. But, he himself was actually standing on the slippery ice. Why would Keith do something like this for? The answer was obvious, Keith needed his training. While speed, strength, endurance, intelligence, reaction, and agility were important, Keith needed to focus on his balance as well.
Without proper balance, your fighting skills were shit. Luckily, Keith's gloves could melt the ice around him and ensure he gets the proper footing that he so requires. Before he would do such a thing, Keith decided to see how he would fair on the slippery ice of the skating ring.
This should be fun.
In preparation of the match, Keith was dressed in a black t-shirt, black khaki pants, black shoes, a black belt, black shades, and his gloves. Keith's left glove known as Heaven's Judgment glowed a bright sky blue as it emitted bolts of electricity. Keith's right glove known as Hell's Punishment glowed a bright crimson red as it emitted flames of fire.
Yes, Keith had Heaven and Hell on his side.

It was a very hot day. What else could Emily do? Well, she could rush to the nearest skating rink and do a little practice for one. After all, it had been a while since she'd actually tough ice skates. She was alright at it, even to the point of trying out some basic figure skating... but... well, she was the kind of figure skater that was still afraid of lifting her feet from the ice.
But well, she was good as long as both feet were on ice.
With earphones blaring Tchaikovsky's Waltz of the Flowers, she began doing some basic routines. Luckily, it was a weekday... so there weren't much people.
Yeah, she skipped school for this.
Emily's stats for this battle:
Strength: 30 + 5 = 35
Dexterity: 30 + 5 = 35
Constitution: 26
Intelligence: 24
Wisdom: 24
Charisma: 26

It seemed that Keith wasn't alone at the skating ring. A young girl decided to go skating on the ring. Keith didn't care. He would continue to lean back and wait. Through his black shades, Keith would calmly observe the girl that was skating around. Then, his eyes would shift up to the ceiling.
Taking a deep sigh, Keith would slowly leave the end of the skating ring. He would slowly and carefully walk forward towards the center of the ring. This would provide good balance and footing. Carefully and calmly, Keith would take slow and precise steps to the center of the skating ring. He would take deep breaths in between.
While Keith walked, his gloves would continue glowing. The other reason Keith needed to be careful were due to the weight of his gloves. They were like ten-pound weights over Keith's hands.

Emily wasn't obviously looking. Certainly carried away a bit too much by the piece she had bumped into someone.
Emily was on her ass right now, having fallen over. Looking up at the man she had apparently ran into, she would pull herself up saying: "I'm sorry, I got too carried away."
She would put her MP3 player away, knowing that this guy might answer. It's best she prepare herself for however this guy might take it.

**Bump**
Due to the slippery ice, the girl that was skating bumped into Keith. That caused Keith to lose balance as he staggered backwards. He was struggling to keep balance. As Keith shifted his arms around to help maintain balance, he could feel them getting tired.
This was due to the weight of the gloves getting to him. Soon, Keith fell forward. But, he would quickly plant his hands on the floor of the skating ring. He would also come to his knees. The heat from Keith's gloves somewhat melted the ice.
"I'msorry, I got too carried away."
Keith looked up to the girl that had fallen onto her ass. He gave a casual nod and a smile.
"It's quite all right."
Slowly, Keith would carefully stand up to his feet. As Keith lifted his hands from the floor, his hands would be imprinted on the ice. Then, Keith would brush himself off.

"It's quite all right."
It is? Well, it was alright though ... this girl... wasn't much of an aggressor, it would make her pretty much out of character to initiate anything unless she felt like it.
Worse, for some reason she felt something strange about this guy. It's like something close to fear was bubbling on her head.
...
Which means...
... is he strong?
And from here on, she skated to end up 8 feet away from this man -- looking quite serious. "Are you strong...?"

"Are you strong...?"
That was a pretty random question that the girl had asked Keith. Keith would humor her with an answer of his own. Slowly, Keith would stand up and stretch his arms out and take a deep breath. He would inhale and slowly exhale.
With his English accent, Keith would answer with, "Strength is a state of mind. If you feel strong, then you are strong. If you feel weak, then you are weak."
Hopefully the girl would be satisfied with the answer that Keith had just given her. But, that was what Keith had believed for the most part. Now, he would have to wait for the girl's reply afterwards.
His gloves continued to glow.
Heaven's Judgment glowed a brighter sky blue and Hell's Punishment glowed a brighter crimson red. The outside of the gloves seemed to warm up a bit. Perhaps it was not good to be training in the skating ring today.

Then he answered, "Strength is a state of mind. If you feel strong, then you are strong. If you feel weak, then you are weak."
Emily smiled, skating backwards a bit. "I'll take that as a yes." she would say, "How about a little spar on the ice?"
She would notice the glow of the man's two gloves. Now, she was quite intrigued -- just how powerful this man in front of her was.
This would be an interesting learning experience.
Her loss will be a win in the long run.
For now, she was there standing on the middle of the empty ice rink clad in her clothes and figure skates instead of boots.

"How about a little spar on the ice?"
Behind those black shades of his, Keith rose his right eyebrow when she asked for a spar. Keith was looking to get some extra fighting experience in. So, why not? He would humor the girl on skates and accept her offer for a spar.
"A spar? Sure, why not?" Keith rhetorically asked when he answered the girl's question. He would stretch out some. Since the girl had on skates, it seemed she would have the advantage.
However, there are pros and cons to everything. Keith would be sure to expose the cons of everything.

"A spar? Sure, why not?"
Advantage? No such thing.
Emily had no advantage except the fact that she had experience with figure skating, and generally... it was just a thing she did primarily to the fact that she had lived on a place with cold weather, such as Hokkaido.
Skates though made her particularly fast... but... yeah. Something was pretty fishy around here.
She skated backwards, Qi surging outward with a temperature near freezing and collecting it near her feet. It was preparation for whatever this guy might pull that will give her a problem. "What?" she'd say, "You waiting for me to pull the first move?"
