Getting in the flow.

[Mr. Kaar]

((OoC: Chi and spectators only.))

Leon was not in such a good mood today. His usual happy go lucky mood was thrown to the way side. He had been awakened by a guy not too long ago, and this young man had decided to get back up to speed. Sure he has been training and went to huge lengths to over whelm his opponent all those weeks ago. Yet he was unsatisfied, he needed something else. More training, these enforcers where equipped with really powerful drugs that could make them his equal and maybe more. He knew it because he has experienced it before.

But it was school time, there for all the strong individuals where skipping and sneaking around. Or they where released from class early. Leon was one not to be messed with by those idiot enforcers. Yet, it was time to play with some people and see what he could get from it. So he simply stated at the point people started running about in the courtyard.

"Anyone here think they are strong enough to fight me?"

"Bummm, buh-duh-dah...dee-dah bum bum-bum..dah.."

Les was working on a new bass line for a line she was writing for her and Stu's band, which they still needed members for. But anywho, so she was playing, running through the line she'd written when a voice shouted out among the crowd. 'Anyone here think they are strong enough to fight me?'

Now...for anyone who knew Olesya, knew that she never turned down a challenge. She didn't care who it was, she never took it personally. It was fun. If someone wanted to fight, she'd fight. Taking off her bass and setting it gently on the bench she was sitting on, she stood up, walking over to the spikey haired boy. Her hands were in the pockets of her cargos as she stopped a good five feet from him.

"I'll take you. Unless you're against fighting girls or something." Hey you never know, some people were. And even if he was, she'd probably toss a punch at him anyway just to see how he'd react.

[Mr. Kaar]

Seemed someone was going to step up to the plate. Also sounded to Leon that this girl hadn’t heard of him, which was great. Yet… Leon had never heard or seen her before which wasn’t so great. The feeling that a warrior like Leon gets when he runs across an unknown enemy usually made him feel great. If this girl proved entertaining, it would push Leon further into taking action in this school.

Leon chuckled a bit at her comment about fighting girls. He shook his head and turned sideways so his right side was facing her, his right arm staying down along his side, and his left raising up just past under his chin across his body. He would bend his knees and say.

“Some of the best fighters I have met are girls. If you chose to fight your just another fighter to me.”

[chihiro]

This guy reeked of confidence, good. There was no sense in an unconfident fighter, yeah? He also had no problem fighting girls, which was good as well. Boys who had issues fighting girls on an equal plane was insulting to Olesya. 'I don't hit girls' should only talk about battery, not competition.

"Music to my ears. Let's go, Spikey."

It was normal for Olesya to name someone based on a characteristic before she knew their name. It helped her remember them later on. For example, the school captain was 'the captain' and the kid she'd fought in the arena? 'Fancy pants,' because he was all dressed up when he knew he was just going to get dirty. So this kid now? Spikey blonde hair. 'Spikey.' It wasn't meant to be insulting, though perchance it could be funny to see how'd he'd react to the name. Some people get pouty and it effects their fighting. Olesya was all about observation and learning about human nature.

A grin plastering across her face, she gave him a once over, taking in his body language. Obviously for starters, his left fist was up. The moment she came near it would be the easiest thing to crash down on her. First she needed to ready herself. She stepped back on her right foot, left side of her body forward, legs shoulder width apart. Her arms were up in a general guard stance in front of her. She bounced lightly on her toes.

Let's see what you got.

She would make the first move, understanding that the chance of 'the first move' ever really being successful were quite slim unless you were some kind of tank of something. It was easy to see Olesya was a lightweight, but she was light on her feet, and though lacking in some regards, she made up for in others.

1, 2, 3 steps forward, landing on her right foot, her right arms would come up in a simple inside block to way-lay his left arm while her own left fist cocked back and aimed a punch at his chest. best to keep it simple for starters, she had to test the waters first.

[Mr. Kaar]

For starters, when Leon heard the nick name it brought back memories of hangin’ out with his friends out in the woods during his freshman and sophomore years. So he smiled. Not a cocky smile, not that sly smile when he got in the mood to fight, but a full blown honest to gods smile. BUT, this was still a fight, Leon wasn’t gonna play around much. Like this girl, Leon had his own ways of testing the waters.

As the punch came in Leon turned slightly to give it more space to hit his chest, his left fist opening in position and waiting. The fist connected and Leon’s hand went to grab her wrist, the punch was good… Damn good. Like he said, some of the best fighters he has met where female. If his hand grabbed her wrist he would yank the arm down and send his knee upwards to hit her gut. It would all be force acting on force, he was testing her again with seeing how her pain tolerance was.

He hadn’t held back at all with that, and he had yet to use his gloves, or Qi. So it should have been a pretty basic and blunt attack.

[chihiro]

Items and Qi...Olesya didn't have either of those. Some people liked to show them off, whipping it out like an unfair advantage to a fight, or worse yet, in bullying. But only through mastery of your Qi and little add ons can you really achieve victory. Just like you walk before you run, Olesya wanted to hone her fighting skills before adding anything that could possibly hinder her rather than boost her already established ability.

Balance is the true secret to being a great fighter.

Anyway...enough rambling. Punch to the chest, knee to the gut...Olesya coughed as the air was forced out of her lungs, but to lessen the blow, she tightened her ab muscles in response to lessen the blow a tiny bit. Sure, she didn't have abs of steele, but female abs are relatively resilient naturally...for reproductive reasons.

Wince. Just a wince, fighters didn't whine. They wince, and move on. The fight wasn't over yet.

Gulping precious oxygen into her lungs, her right arm crashed down onto the wrist of his right arm to dislodge the grip, a basic self defense move, and if that succeeded the momentum would turn with her arm as it pivoted, driving her elbow up at his jaw.

[Mr. Kaar]

See? Females where strong fighters. This female had a good sense of pain control, which was interesting. Usually he’d of laid a normal fighter out on the ground about now. Seemed there was more to this female than he thought… Of course that happened a lot. The elbow came in after his wrist was knocked away, slicing across his jaw as he tilted his head back to dodge it.

That was interesting; her elbow was good enough to cut his chin. Maybe this female was something to be a little cautious about. Leon would throw his head forward after the elbow would cause his head to backlash and aim to slam his own head into hers. If it worked or not didn’t matter to him. This was starting to get fun.

[chihiro]

Caught offguard by the cut formed on his chin (she'd done that?!), Olesya failed to notice him snap his head back and forward to collide with her own. WHAM! An instant of black, then a ringing sensation and stars, Olesya tumbled unceremoniously onto her keister, hands raising to press against each side of her head to stop things from spinning.

She spent a moment on the ground to regain her standing, getting back to her feet. A headache was blooming in the front of her head and at her temples, but she would ignore it to the best of her ability. "Nice shot, Spikey." She commended him, blinking and shaking her head slightly, resuming her guard stance, feets shoulder width apart, arms up.

She would let him make the next move while she was recovering.

[Mr. Kaar]

Leon’s head made a good clanking noise against his opponents. It knocked him back a bit even, he put his hand to his head shook it a bit and regained composure fast. The cut on his chin was bleeding down his neck and to his shirt. And dripped down to the floor. That hit did more than the girl thought. It was clean and well placed. Caught Leon off guard which is very surprising to do lately.

“Not so bad yourself.”

He’d smile his fighting grin. Such enjoyment from fighting, some would think he was sadistic. But in All honesty, he had only lost his mind. A long time ago in fact. An addiction to fighting, what an anti-drug. But as it was obvious to the spikey haired individual she was gonna let him make the next move. Leon would burst forward and shoot out his right leg aimed high for her forehead. Speed and control was what he was aiming for right now. He was going to refrain from throwing a punch for as long as possible. His arms by the way had come up in fromt of his chest and face for balance and protection.

[olesya]

She liked this kid, he was a good sport. He fought for fun, and that made the entire endeavor more rewarding. His chin looked pretty cruddy right now but he shook it off, ignoring it as it dripped down, probably ruining his shirt, before attacking himself.

Olesya loved high kicks. Why? Because in Capoeira, the fighters are alternately kicking, swinging, and ducking and dodging in fluid movements, often to music. As his foot left the ground, raising at her head, the junior would drop back on her hands, looking like halfway between a gymnastic back bend and a crab walk (haha). She would then lift her right hand, flipping her body over and placing her hand on the ground on the left side of her body like her left hand. The fast movement made her head pound, but she blinked quickly, shaking it off so she could finish her move.

Leaning her weight onto her hands and left foot, her right foot would leave the ground in a low sweeping kick aimed at his left foot still on the ground.

[Mr. Kaar]

Leon’s eyes tracked her movements, he’d seen fluidity like that before. He knew the style and its dangerous moves. Of course he disliked the fact he was about to possibly be in 8 different ways of hurt, but that didn’t bother him. His kick missed and sailed through air, with a sharp snap of his pant leg. Her attack came for his foot that was on the ground so he dropped his hands, as the kick came in his body weight was else where, it would hurt less, and he would go to a hand stand, he’d twist and drop his left leg, pulling his right leg down with even greater force in a type of axe kick aiming his shin to her shoulder.

Leon was getting into this fight. He wasn’t doing this because it’s a method from her style, more so because it just went together with the attack, he’d probably move back to his regular style after this attack, but at least he stopped himself from falling to the ground. In the past when he fell on the ground against females they pinned him or something and he had to admit defeat.

[olesya]

[ooc: Im guessing he kicked her right shoulder? If not ill switch the rights/lefts in this post =D?!]

=====

Because basically all of her weight was currently at the upper half of her body, she couldn't move fast enough out of range of his foot. She moved with it though, her shoulder falling back as it connected, lessening the blow. Olesya was impressed with the hand stand however, as she often utilized the move herself to give more leverage to her kicks.

Because she had fallen back with the kick, she rolled backward onto her shoulder, executing a backwards somersault back onto her feet. Ow. Elbow sticking out, she rotated her shoulder in a circle then pushing forward and back to check for breaks or bruising. Something cracked, but it might have been the shoulder just popping back into the socket because a large searing pain erupted and then ebbed. She would feel it in the morning.

Shake it off, shake it off..she bounced on her toes, raising her guard back up again. She wasn't down yet. C'mon Olesya, you got this. She would attack this time, executing a crescent kick with her left leg. She would keep it simple for now, leading with her left side while her right recovered.

[Mr. Kaar]

Leon went back to a standing position and regained his original fighting stance, his right side facing her, his right arm kept tense at his side, and his left across his chest under his chin. Blood dripping on his shirt from his chin. A nice crack from her shoulder telling him he had done some damage.

Leon would watch her kick, it was a simple move to keep the fight going, his right arm moving to catch her kick at the shin and freeze her motions. He wasn’t playing seriousely now, now he was doing what he always does. Testing these 259 kids. That Unfettered guy had proven that they have amazingly powerful fighters for their ages. Which meant soon they would be near his level, this girl was already one like him. She enjoyed every minute of this fight so far.

Leon would stay in that position blocking her leg until she decided to do something else, he wanted to see how hard she could go offensive. Then it would be his turn to check her defensive.

[olesya]

Olesya made a sound of protest as he caught her leg, the sudden halting of momentum shaking her body as movement came to a stop. Her left leg immobile and airborne, Olesya thought quickly, needing to find a way to make up for the compromising position she found herself in. Improvisation for the win?

Her hands still up in loose fists in front of her, she turned her torso to the right, her right leg bending down a little and with a snap she kicked from the ground, whipping her torso to the left for extra leverage as her right leg left the ground, her entire body now airborne as her right leg aimed for the left side of his head.

There were a lot of disadvantages for being completely airborne like this, with her left leg still captive by her opponent. She would keep her guard up though in case she needed to execute some fancy handwork to keep from falling on her head. But first, the kick.

[Mr. Kaar]

“Oh?”

More of a sound than an actual word, but it did come from the blonde kids mouth, and he was curious as to how this was going to work. She was agile and this new attack said “Attack me” all over it, but it was also quick and had a lot behind it, if she had better attributes this attack would surely catch a lot of powerful fighters off guard.

Leon let go as soon as her foot slapped across his face. He’d turn with the impact, letting go of the leg and spinning with the attack on his left foot, he’d lift his right as he turned around and would bring it down in an axe kick and push her to the ground with some force.

“Having fun?”
