Lunchtime. The student body traveled through the line, filling up their plates and stuffing their faces. Pleasant. Olesya wasn't that hungry yet, having had a late breakfast at the cafe before heading to school. She sat at one of the outside tables, playing at her bass guitar, Lola.
Bum, bum buh buhhh, bum buh buuah bumm..
It may have been the oddly warm weather, or something else, but Olesya was feeling oddly...unsettled today. Anxious? No..restless. You could see it by the look on her face, which looked like a thoughtful :/.
Buh bumm, buh buh ba-da-da-dum..-
The sound stopped, and she leaned on her bass, looking about the school crowd. Things were too peaceful around here. Granted, Olesya herself was a relatively peaceful person, but did that mean she had to be boring? What happened to the days when someone would jump up in the middle of the cafeteria and challenge the whole room to a me lee? Forget a food fight, at 259 all that flew were fists.
That's why she felt restless, it was too quiet. Far too quiet.

...probably because Mitsuki was in the room, and knew that if they did happen to cause a fight, then she'd just end up stopping their fun. Usually Mitsuki didn't go to the lunch room, so her appearance might have startled those who saw her. Her freshman year, her novice year at being school captain, no one knew who she was. Everyone acted normally, it was almost too funny to see the peoples' reactions when Mitsuki stepped in to fight things, especially since she was a female. Males didn't like to be dominated; the majority didn't, anyway. Though, through countless of fist fights, she gained respect, in a way.
Anywho, back to being in the cafeteria. The reason why Mitsuki dropped by was for a little check up to see if they were behaving. People kept their distance from her, that much was blatantly obvious. She was used to the attention, and in ten or so minutes, things would go back to normal; they'd forget she was in the room, so it wasn't like she was disturbing the students eating their lunch by just standing there.

Olesya noticed when the room when suddenly quiet. Heads turned, and the Sophomore followed their gaze to a girl. She was quiet looking, reserved, and looked more like she was doing rounds than getting in the lunch line. Interesting. A few kids that had been lingering and chatting quickly found a seat.
Les was watching this girl with even more interest. She might as well have cooties or the plague the way these kids were acting. But why? Who was she? Les had been going to this school all her career, and even with her friendly manner, still had yet to meet the entire student body.
However, though she was a brilliant student, she didn't seem to be able to take a hint. Setting Lola down, the short haired girl walked up to the enigma. Stopping in front of her, Olesya looked to the left, and then to the right before settling her gaze on the girl in front of her.
"Did I miss a memo?" She asked simply, indicating the behavior of their peers. Olesya was an open person almost to a fault. She could feel a hundred eyes on her, shocked expressions. She wondered if the other girl felt this weird feeling, or if she was used to it.

...Mitsuki didn't see why some people were shocked. They thought the same way as this girl when they first met her, completely oblivious to her title. If Mitsuki were an average girl, she'd be surprised by her blunt way of asking, though now-a-days things as minor as this hardly captured her attention. Eyes have been scanning around the cafeteria, landing on a group of guys huddled together, as if totally ignoring the girl at first. Though, after that brief moment, she looked over at the girl, and shook her head.
"Not really."
Voice was flat and monotonous, lacking emotion that equally matched her face. Eyes moved over to the group of guys, one carefully looking over every once in a while. Although it wasn't obvious they were up to something, the body language the group gave off was a bit obvious. She narrowed her eyes before turning her attention back to the girl, as if waiting for her to do something. Maybe, I don't know... Move?

"Not really." Well, 'not really' didn't hush an entire cafeteria. 'Not really' didn't cause eyes to follow your every move, even if you were just walking across a room. 'Not really' didn't give such caution, such...was it respect?
"Well I doubt you have cooties."
She stated obviously, a bit of humor thrown in. Her eyes still scanned over the girl. There as something, there really was, Olesya was just having trouble putting a finger on it. Her posture was upright but her demeanor was casual, bored even. Even though all she could see was her eyes, Olesya could imagine the rest of her expression. The musician narrowed her eyes for a moment, a thought crossing her mind. Could it be? But she was so...little. Easily a good half foot shorter than her, but her demeanor was too solid.
"..Are you a pillar?" The question. Pillars were rarely seen around the school, what, with one running off to another state, another with wavering attendance, and the third MIA and stripped of his title. Could she be?

Cooties? Hnnmph.. That was certainly a new theory. Joking or not, rarely did anyone ever take this kind of tone with her. Eyes returned back to the girl, a rather bored expression in her eyes, blinking once. She was a curious girl, Mitsuki noted. And then? The question. Was she a pillar? Well, depends on how you looked at it. There were three official pillars, and a school captain. Usually, four pillars are what keep a building, a society, stable, so technically the school captain position could be a pillar position...except that Mitsuki generally held more power than them. Does that make sense?
"Hm?"
The cafeteria was oddly silent. People were paying attention to their conversation, and Mitsuki wasn't exactly fond of people 'listening in'.
"I'm the School Captain."
Rather blunt, but hey. She asked?

Still the neutral expression. Either this girl was a really good actress, had insane self control, or was bored with life. Though, she doubted the latter. But just as she began to rationalize this fact, things cleared up like a fog lifting. School Captain.
"Ahh..well, that would explain it, I guess."
But do you think that would stop her? THE school captain, the highest pillar. Student ruler of the school, was standing in front of her. Quail! Run away! She must be a very strong little person to be in the position that she was. Olesya grinned.
"Call me daft, but I just find it curious why they're so afraid to confront you."
Was she going somewhere with this? Heck yes!

"Me too."
She wasn't being a smart ass. The mere fact that nearly half of them were probably avoiding her like a plague were from rumors, the other half only because they got their butt kicked by her, or had friends that got their butt kicked by her, or the other pillars, and wondered if the pillars can kick their butts, how much damage could the school captain do, exactly? <-- What the hell, run on sentence, much?
Anyway. Too lazy to read over. Moving on.
"...I can only assume because you're still in front of me, there's something you want?"

For a moment, Olesya wanted to be smart. "...I can only assume because you're still in front of me, there's something you want?" No, I'll just stand here a bit longer admiring your visage. Granted, she did admire the short girl, she was the school captain.
Howwwwwever, Olesya wanted to see just how powerful this girl was. There was no use beating around the bush any longer.
She smirked.
"I'm not sure you have what it takes to run this school. Convince me." Fight me. She challenged. Would the esteemed school captain accept?

((OOC: XD I was wondering why you thought she was so short... She's actually 5'7" and sixteen years old.. Forgot to update that little bit of information in my character sheet. :X))
Honestly? Mitsuki didn't have to do anything. Why would she have to convince her? Mitsuki gave no reaction to her, no reply, other then a slight tilt of her head. Huh.
"...do you even know what rules are enforced?"
The whole... "No fighting on school grounds" thing, unless it be for self-defense? Sorry girl. But if you want to know what Mitsuki's level of combat is, you're going to have to do something, the first move, whatever. Not the other way around. Of course, there were those who were serious to ask for a challenge for her title. This girl wasn't serious at all.

[ooc: Well THAT would make a bit'a sense there missy Well she's still a tad shorter since Les is 5'10"/130. Suki is a lil string bean! ]--- Interesting that she chose to say 'what rules are enforced' rather than 'what the rules are.' Innnnteresting. This showed two things: That as a pillar, this school captain was enforcing the rules. BUT, since she had been challenged, she was saying that she was the one to enforce the rules. No fighting on school grounds. Okay, fair enough. But to enforce these rules, if Olesya were to fight her, she would have to, in turn, fight back. Smart girl. "Then enforce 'em, Captain."Smirk. Olesya fought for fun, it was apparent by her style. Capoeira. Not strict, of course, she had her own little quirks to make it her own, but..eh, you'll see. Her left hand pulled up in a guard, but instead of lunging forward predictably, she fell back onto her right hand, more to the side than straight back, her left foot, now with the extra leverage leaving the ground, torso twisting as she aimed a kick directly at the captain's head.

((OOC: Yeah, it's what I'm hoping will happen to me. >_>...only maybe not as tall. XD))
Thing is...
Mitsuki could read her moves a while away, considering it takes time to drop onto the floor on your hand if there's no force pushing you down other than your own body weight; also the fact that there are more things you can do with your foot on the ground compared to your hands. And considering the fact that Mitsuki had taken in a style of dance into her fighting technique, pretty much safe the say that all Mitsuki had to do was take a simple step to the left, duck if she had to, and aim a rather powerful kick right below her neck with her left foot to knock the wind right out of her. And since she's on the floor, there's only so much she can do.

Alright. That's fine. The first offense rarely makes contact anyway unless the opponent is caught unaware, ie. Not paying attention. And the captain was. No big. Olesya got exactly what she wanted. She was having fun. Like, the captain, she too could avoid being hit. Capoeira was half attacking, half ducking. The captain easily side stepped her attack, moving in for a kick at her chest. But Les had her left arm at her chest remember?
Block, the captain's foot came in contact with her arm, lessening the blow. So now, Olesya's legs were facing 'downward' from her kick, but her upper body was o the right from where she propped herself up on her arm, right hand on the ground, left blocking the kick. Where to go from here?
She needed to get back on her feet.
Planting her feet to the ground and using her right hand as leverage, Olesya pushed herself back up, twisting back to a normal position. She was now not facing the captain, SO! Hands back up in a defense guard, she used the momentum of turning her body back to a forward position (clockwise) to keep turning, bringing her right leg up in a round house kick. Oh snap. Not Capoeira, but then again, she did her own thing, and a roundhouse kick was pretty basic, anyone could do it.

Gotcha.
Mitsuki did not forget about her defensive arm; in fact, she was expecting her to use it against her, which is why whereas her left foot may have seemed to be going toward her chest in a full out kick, she wasn't even using half of her speed, and let it drop to the ground in front of her and slam her other foot into her gut as hard as she could with a force that could knock anyone to the floor. So all in a split second, Mitsuki changed everything. It was quite impossible to avoid her offensive attack. Thanks to Sensei, she learned how to use feigns properly.
Oh, the possibilities of her next attack...
Mitsuki's objective in fights?
Get it over with.

Ugh! The foot slammed into her stomach like one of those things they used to knock down doors. What were they called? Battery rams? One of those. Olesya was sent backward, falling to her tush on the ground. She coughed, arms curled around her stomach, taking a moment to compose herself.
"Nice shot..-kuh- Captain."
Olesya was grinning from ear to ear. She bent her right leg, placing it firmly against the ground to get back to her feet. However, to her left was a vacated chair next to a bunch of students who were watching like a 'dinner and a movie' show. Getting into a semi crouched position, she reached out, grabbing the chair with both hands, swivelling her weight from right to left as she spun (whoa 360), the chair leaving the ground and flying across the five foot space between herself and the captain quite fast.

[ooc: There! I used the chair! XD]
