Fight Club

[Aureus]

Interesting fighting style. I'd never suspect her to fight like Eddie Gordo from Tekken. She's not Brazilian. Strange... The Pillar thought to himself while he waited for the deadly beauty to resume her attack. Now that he had seen her maintain that stance more than once, he was sure it would be hard for him to attack her. He couldn't hit ground fighters, that was one of his weaknesses, probably because he didn't have much experience in the field. I'll have to use this controlled fight to learn as much as I can from her. He told himself, preparing himself to react for their next clash.

"Just for a little while longer, sexy." He taunted, sticking his tounge out. Then...something unexpected happened. With a loud 'Ow!' the dark haired girl collapsed. "Chi!" He yelled, almost running to her, luckily Levi intervened. Stooooooooooop!! It's a trick! You barely even touched her. She's faking, it's so obvious. You sure? Hmm...I guess it does make sense. Aureus thought, calming down and staying where he was. "Heh...nice try, but no dice. I'm not gonna fall for petty tricks. You'll have to do better than that." He said.

[chihiro]

With a small pout, she stopped cringing. He had almost fallen for it, he had even exclaimed her name, but then it was like a voice inside his head told him to stop. Levi, of course. He didn't seem like one to fall for any tricks. She knew it had been obvious, but she was hoping that Aureus would have been blinded enough to at least come a few steps closer. But like she said, no dice, she had to think of something else.

"It was worth a try."

She laughed, giving him a cute wink before recovering her stance, leading with her right foot. So then, stepping forward with her left then right foot in quick succesion, she swung her hips, bringing her left leg up in a roundhouse kick aimed at his stomach. No tricks this time, she was relying on her speed and a blunt attack.

[Aureus]

"Mmm," Aureus replied, focusing more on her movements than ever before. He was going to find an opening, and he was going to show the girl she'd have to do her best to stand a chance against him.

Taking a step back as he closed in on his position, the Pillar noted how the girl stopped on her right leg, meaning she was going to attack with the right side of her body. While side stepping to his right, he raised a hand to push away her kick in the direction it was already going, which wasn't too hard because she wasn't extending too much, but swinging more than anything. Again she'd be off balance and he would take that opportunity to crouch down and send the side of his right fist hard into her stomach.

[chihiro]

...but like with most blunt attacks, they were easily deterred. Aureus sidestepped her kick and pushed her foot again, putting her off balance. Just as she wobbled to stay upright, he sent his fist into her stomach. With a grunt she fell backwards, landing with a thunk on her derrier. Her hands flew up reflexively to her stomach, and she groaned. It was a pretty hard punch, but she knew that it wasn't even half of the strength that he possessed.

Slowly, she recovered, getting back to her feet and regaining her fighting stance, fists loosely clenched in front of her. Blunt attacks weren't going to work on him, that much was obvious, but with his so far away, she couldn't do anything without him seeing it first...so that was why she was going to let him attack now. He'd been on the defensive for a while now, deflecting her own attacks and using them against her. And so she stayed where she was, her breathing slightly heavy from that last blow. But she would be fine soon enough.

[Aureus]

Seems she's finally run out of gas. Yeah, attack now. Of course. The schizo thought before running forward at top speed, drawing his right arm back for what looked to be a punch. Stopping just within striking distance, Aureus lead with his left leg. Though instead of hitting her, Aureus threw the strike a little too far to the right. His only object was to get her to react. She'd see his attack coming, and regardless of whether she thought it was real or a feint like she had used, she'd be wrong. When she tried to counter, he'd be ready with one of his own.

[chihiro]

When Aureus drew back his right hand, Chi checked to make sure his other limbs weren't tensing for a simultaneous attack (nope), before leaning to her right, twisting her torso to the left slightly so his punch would miss. And it did, but by a larger distance than she had thought. So he hadn't tried to hit her on purpose? Maybe he lost his nerve at the last second and pulled it, but that would be his loss.

Left hand reaching out to grab his right wrist, she pulled hard while bringing her right hand up to push forcefully against his left hip so that in addition to going father forward, he was turning to the left. If he didn't catch himself, he would most likely fall onto his back. And to help prevent him from doing the same thing she did to him earlier, she bent her knees and leaned back, bringing her center of gravity back to it would be harder for him to tip her over.

[Aureus]

Now! Aureus shouted to himself, pulling his arm down before Chi could reach his wrist. Along with his arm, the boy would lower his body and tackle the brown eyed girl to the ground. "Heh, you're still too slow, baby." He said with a small smile. He made sure to keep the level of taunting in his voice low, as he meant to tease her, not actually insult her.

It really got to him, the way he couldn't help but stare at her even now, in the middle of a fight. Snap out of it!!!! Hurry up!!!

[chihiro]

A slight shriek escaped the dark haired senior as she was tackled to the ground like a football player. She fell to the ground with an 'oomph!', her breath taken away momentarily as Aureus pinned her to the ground. She coughed, as she started breathing again, grinning at Aureus' taunt. Being so close with all the addrenaline running through her body, it was kind of intoxicating...maybe she could play it to her advantage. Chihiro smirked, biting her bottom lip in a seductively innocent sort of way, her voice soft and low enough that only he could hear her next words.

"Looks like I'm completely at your mercy, huh, tiger?"

She purred, waiting until the most opportun moment to make her move. Shifting her right leg out from under him, and with a swift upward movement of her right hip she flipped him over, pinning him to the ground by sitting on his stomach and bracing her right arm against his chest, her left hand pushing against her right wrist.

"Do I win yet?"

She laughed, bringing her face close to his to tease him further.

[Aureus]

Nooooooooooooooo!!! It's all over! Idiot!!! Hmm? Wasat? It really was too late though, by the time Chi started biting her lip, Aureus was hooked. Even if he hadn't been then, her next sentence would have thrown him for at least ten seconds, more than enough time for her to beat him. "Mmmmm," Was the only sound the Pillar could make in reply.

Oh for fuck's sake! Did she have to thrown in 'tiger'? That's just overkill! The purrish tone too...jeez... Levi shouted as his alternate personality was busy starting into the girl's eyes. Once again the dark haired boy was on his back. "Oh goddamnit..." He muttered. Trying to shove her in a vein attempt, Aureus tried to avoid her eyes. "*sigh* Fine...you win. This time!"

[chihiro]

Chi removed her bracing of his chest, raising her arms in the air triumphantly at his admittance of defeat. Grinning, she leaned down again, placing a quick kiss on his lips.

"I'm just too much for you."

She joked, giving him a wink before finally getting to her feet, offering her hand for him. She knew inwardly that he had handed her the victory, if if had been a real fight, he could have easily kicked her ass. But this was a fight club, and the point was to have fun and learn from your opponents. And anyway, it was great practice.

[Aureus]

"You really are," The schizo said with a smile, accepting her invitation to help him up. "Thanks," He said simply, feet back on solid ground. Once they were out of the ring he called back to the other members of the new club. "Yeah...whoever wants to go next, jump in." Aureus said, panting a bit. Not wasting another moment, he practically pounced on Chi, sucking on her neck softly.

[chihiro]

Once they'd made it out of the ring, Aureus gave a half conscious direction to the rest of the fighters before pouncing on her. Chi let out a delighted sound before half pushing him away.

"Aury! That's no way to head a club.."

She laughed, before reaching for the clipboard, reading the names while halfheartedly fending him off. John, Max, and Cliff. Chi looked up, Max seemed to have disappeared, and John appeared to be asleep.

"Cliff, heh, you can...choose your opponent."

Should someoen else walk in, they could always fight, unless someone else wanted to fight again. Seh turned her attention back to Aureus, giving him a cute kind of 'later' expression. He really was too funny sometimes, but that was why she adored him.

[fryman]

With a slightly annoyed tone at the seemingly lack of energy, and more so at him being single out as the next person to fight Cliff took a small glance around at the empty ring. Placing both hands in his pocket Cliff walked up two the couple that was lying on the ground. Looking right over then Cliff yawned as he said, “Who is there to pick from? I’m going to go to bed until someone of interest decides to show up.”

Now bringing his right foot behind his left heel Cliff swivels around and started to walk towards the mat. Arriving in the middle of the mat Cliff suddenly in one movement kicked his feet up and sat on the mat. Sitting on it Cliff then fell on his back with his eyes cloths and went to sleep until someone would show up to entertain him.

[Aureus]

Honestly...you're horrible. You have to keep up appearances!*sigh*...True... The Pillar thought while still clinging to Chi. After a moment, he let her go and jumped back to his feet. By that time Cliff was already laying down in the ring...like it was his bed or something. What a weird guy...there are much better places to sleep around here. Aureus thought before looking back at Chi.

"Since when do you call me Aury?" The schizo asked, not really minding the nickname. After all, it was about time he had one. Looking around, he noticed there were a couple people missing. "Jeez...I turn my back for a few minutes and half the people disappear!"

[chihiro]

"If you don't like it, I won't call you it."

She said lightly, climbing back to her feet. She didn't see why not, after all it was basically the first two syllables of his name, plus it was kind of cute. She had a slight joking tone to her voice, and she brushed herself off, the floor was kind of dirty. Chi unwrapped the tape from her right hand, and then reached out with her newly freed hand for her water bottle. She took a long sip before splashing some over her head, smoothing it through her ponytail with her left hand. Setting her waterbottle back down, the dark haired senior pulled the tape from her left hand, clenching and unclenching her fist to get the feeling all back again.

"Suuu...You got beat by a girl.."

Chi teased in a sing song voice as she collapsed onto the bench her bag was sitting, not the least bit graceful. But she was comfortable enough, so that was all that mattered. That short stint fatigued her, it had been a while since she had fought, but it was really good practice, despite it being against her boyfriend.
