Mitsukai sat on the bleachers at sports field staring at her cellphone trying to figure out what to do about the text message she wanted to give to Matrim. She was itching to train a lot lately and it had been awhile since she last trained with the school captain. The only problem was she did not know what to type. How was she going to go about this? It would have been easier to simply talk to him but she had terrible luck finding him around the school grounds, there was not much of a choice she had to do this.
With a heavy sigh she tried to come up with something, typing and then erasing several times in an attempt to come up with something. No such luck. She growled in frustration, this plan was not going as well as she had hoped. It was not like she could just go: Hey...wanna fight? Really, it didn't have to be formal but it had to be better than that or else it would be just plan awkward.
She stared at the text for a minute before deciding to scrap it. It sounded too cheesey for her liking.
*click*
"Fuck I hit send!" she swore, of course she had to be a moron and hit the wrong button. God how could she be so damn clumsy???
"Fuck guess I'll just have to live with it now." She sighed, it was too late to do anything and at least she'd get a response soon. For now all she could do was sit and wait.

Matrim's hand was still quite burnt up, but he needed to train anyway. His ribs still somewhat tender, the left ones quite burnt, he was in no condition to fight someone on a serious level, which was quite alright considering that he wasn't about to fight her on some grand level. The strength in his legs and left hand were still in perfect condition, he could due without the right hand for a fight if he had to.
He couldn't text very well with his left hand, he had enough trouble as it was just clicking to read the damn thing using his left hand. it all felt so strange to him. Still he set it down on the table and managed to type a text back, however messed up it had turned out to be.
He hit send and decided not to fix the mistakes in spelling and grammar as he made his way over. Wearing a black t-shirt, blue jeans, and a pair of vans he made his way to the school field. His right hand was heavily bandaged, making it appear as though his hand had been mummified. In fact, if you had seen it the same day it got burnt it would appear as a hand from a mummy.
"Yo," He would say, raising the good hand, the bad one simply staying near his side, moving only a little with the motion of him walking. He would stop once he was a good five or so feet away from her, "Haven't seen you in awhile, you been doing your job? I hope so... and I hope you've been getting stronger."
Underneath that black shirt was more bandages, she wouldn't see them but they were there, practically mummifying his torso from about underarm level down to his belly button. It felt really warm to him in that aspect, and strangely comfortable. But he knew with each step and each laugh that his ribs were still injured, this fight would definitely be a strain on his recovery no matter what.

In came the response, at least he accepted the request. Now all she had to do was wait. When he did arrive she couldn't help but look at him in surprise. Matrim was definitely not in the best condition, like he got hit by a train or something. Man she really needed to try and keep in touch with him and Sara more, if she had known he was injured she might not had bothered him.
"Yo," "Haven't seen you in awhile, you been doing your job? I hope so... and I hope you've been getting stronger."
"Who the hell did that to you?" she asked her feline eyes resting on his bandaged arm. There probably was more damage that she couldn't see anywhere. Whoever did this, (and yes she had to assume that his injuries were from a fight, after all this IS 259) beat him up pretty good. "You sure you want to do this? I know I'm not that strong but it's kind of unfair to be pounding on someone who is already hurt."

"Who the hell did that to you?"
"Some of it Sara, some of it myself in an attempt to hit Sara... and failing... miserably," He said as he looked down at his bandaged up hand. Either way he'd adress the next bit.
"You sure you want to do this? I know I'm not that strong but it's kind of unfair to be pounding on someone who is already hurt."
"Please," He said, "I've fought the strongest with worse than this. Are you forgetting I've fought in a war? Try fighting with bullet wounds for awhile and you'll know where I am at," He said. The truth was she was getting closer. By looking at her alone he could tell she was catching up pretty easily. It would take her a bit longer though.
"Besides, if I don't fight you than you're strength will just wither," He said, "So, show me your worst," He said, his right hand going back to his side as his left fist came forward with fingers extended. He'd have to use his arm like a blade until he could get in a decent hold of some sort. But mostly he'd let her make the first move, "After all, it's your job to come to me... or are you afraid I might just embarrass you?"
Oh yeah, hit her where it hurts Mat. The ego!

Impressive
Mitsukai knew well enough already that Sara was an excellent fighter and the fact that she had handed Matrim his ass was definitely something worth praising. Though she would never say that out loud, Sara might get too happy about Mitsukai praising her.
"Please," He'd say in response to her next question. "I've fought the strongest with worse than this. Are you forgetting I've fought in a war? Try fighting with bullet wounds for awhile and you'll know where I am at,"
. . . .
Well she supposed that was fair enough. Not like she was strong enough yet to do any further harm, no matter how beat up he was he could still probably kick her ass. There was no point in denying that but admitting that sort of truth did not mean she would just quit and not bother training. Eventually she would become strong enough to be a threat. She'd never get that far if she didn't fight.
"Besides, if I don't fight you than you're strength will just wither," "So, show me your worst," "After all, it's your job to come to me... or are you afraid I might just embarrass you?"
Embarrass me huh? she grinned, gold eyes settling onto her 'prey' as she charged forward at top speed. Her right arm pulled far back before slamming forward into a punch to his kidneys. He wanted her to fight him still then she would, without holding back. It only seemed fair since he asked her to right?

Her speed was remarkable, especially considering how far she had come. It was good to see her progressing, and while her tactics seemed pretty good, Matrim was still easily able to form something to counter it His left hand would move in a circular motion, a larger one to parry her punch to the side before bringing his left knee up toward her exposed right side.
Once the kick either connected or missed Matrim would bring that left leg back down before making a fist with his left hand and aiming to punch her in her right cheek. It was definitely something he'd have to get used to, not having his right hand to attack with. He could but.. it'd hurt him quite a bit. Might hurt her more, it might not. but he wouldn't know until he tried, and he didn't look forward to it.
Once the punch was thrown he'd return to his previous stance assuming nothing was wrong, fingers extended out with his left hand in front of him.

It came as no surprise to her that Matrim blocked her first attack. He was faster after all and as of lately she had been training to become more of a counter-strike fighter so being the first to strike now felt a bit awkward being the one to go first. She would have to work on that later.
She took the blow to her side but as that fist came for her she shot her arm out. Not fast enough to block his attack but with enough time to grab onto his wrist before he pulled back and sending her own knee into his gut in turn if she had been successful in grabbing him.

She grabbed his arm at the wrist, sending a knee into his gut, he tok the blow, taking note of her strength. She was getting there, a remarkable amount of strength in such a short amount of time. She was really starting to grow strong in such a short time. Matrim knew that she'd only get stronger from here on out, but what else he knew was an opportunity to do something major in the fight.
As her knee connected his right foot shot out for her other leg, aiming to slam it back to cause her to fall forward. As this happened he'd pull on the arm she had been grabbing the wrist of, in a further attempt to cause her to fall forward. The foot that had aimed to kick her leg would bend at the knee and attempt to thrust up into her face should she fall forward. Once that was done with, hit or miss, he'd return his foot to the ground.
Too many openings....

Her knee hit its mark but the achievement was very short lived. When she struck Matrim hit her other leg and started pulling back the arm she grabbed forcing her to fall forward so he could knee her in the face. She took the blow since it was simply too fast for her to really dodge or counter.
Fuck I need to be more careful. she thought, Mitsukai had not been aware of the opening she left there and had paid the price for it. If she had any chance of winning this fight she had to be more careful.
Quickly recovering from the hit she made her right leg shoot out in an attempt to sweep out his own right leg from under him to force him to fall. At least thanks to his injured arm there was a good chance he couldn't grab onto her leg and immobilize her, it wasn't perfect but it was worth a shot. If she did manage to get him on the ground she would jump on top of him, straddling Matrim so he couldn't use his legs to kick him off of her as she started raining punches down on him before he could do anything.

A leg came in to kick Matrim low, aiming to sweep. He quickly widened his stance with both feet sliding, left foot forward and right foot back to catch the kick. Once Mitsukai's foot connected with his he'd pivot on his feet toward her, pulling on his left arm he'd aim to drop and catch her by the throat with it, if she still had a grasp on his wrist he'd simply aim to do this by attempting to move his arm with hers.
If he missed it'd most likely end with his hand on the ground in a very strange position with very peculiar openings, hell even if he got it there was one major flaw with this attack, but he had hoped she wouldn't be so cheap as to exploit it. It was time to test the type of fighter she was, whether she preferred a clean fight, or a dirty fight. Because the truth was, Matrim, while having honor, did enjoy a good dirty fight every now and then.
I hate risking the boys just to test someone....
