Match of the Millennium

Description: AKA KOF: Getting Schooled, or a Lunar Landing? Situated over the River Thames, the world famous London Bridge manages to avoid falling down, in order to allow two strange teams to duke it out for the valuable 3rd Bracket slot. The beautiful Full Moons, Felicia and Eliza, are strange and elegant women of an almost superhuman talent, will be staring down the Hard Knocks, the best of the best of academic merits. Teacher and student will be fighting together, as the monster faces the mundane. Both Hideo and Iincyo will need to teach a lesson to the Full Moons. Hopefully, they won't be overwhelmed by the combat assets of the two madams.

[IINCYO]
The organizers of the KOF 2017 tournament wanted the whole of London Bridge for the qualifier between Hard Knocks and the Full Moons. "Think of the spectacle!" they said. "Think of the gridlock!" London's local government groaned warily. You can't just shut down the entire A3 for a fight. So they came to a compromise: only the middle lane of London Bridge's 5 lanes would be closed for the fight. It added a sort of danger and glamour to the fight - how close can you come to throwing your opponent into traffic before you risk violating the rule about killing them? Who's responsible for traffic accidents as people slow down to watch? All the questions are more are... for someone else to answer.

For the fighters, there is only the fight. The class chairperson, Saikyo pupil, and perpetual champion of the student body of Taiyo High, known to almost everyone only as "Iincyo," arrives early for the fight, much as she arrives early everywhere. She paces calmly around the lane, inspecting the blockades provided by local authorities, and feeling the wind of the passing cars - and of the high bridge in general - flow around her. For a moment she almost considers putting her coat on for a change, but decides against it. Freedom of movement will be important in this brawl, she figures.

Felicia          0/-------/-------|-------\-------\0           Iincyo

[FELICIA]
Felicia is there, in the guise of one of Lee Chaolan's most favorite of Violet Girls: The long white slit-skirted cocktail dress, blue gloves, heels. Her figure is much more petite and slender than the usual amazon catwoman she'd been known for. Right now that electric blue mane of locks is fine, glossy and refined back, one bang over one eye and the rest of it trailing down her back.

"You're my opponent?" she asks, walking right down the lane of the bridge as she approaches Iincyo, tilting her head oddly. Her lips are slightly parted, cupid's bow and glazed in blue lipstick, as if she's curious about the girl standing there.

"I suppose I'm in the wrong outfit for this," she reaches down and unceremoniously slips off her heels--gloves--the go ontop of a car nearby--and then grabs the front of her dress, throwing it off with a flourish. She hulks out in the meantime--all those petite and slender features suddenly becoming muscled, strong and her entire body changing into the Catwoman Felicia she's more known as.

"Lets go, I want a real match!" her feet, now clawed and flexing pound the pavement as she begins to rush Iincyo, going for a light punch to her shoulder!

[IINCYO]
Iincyo is not often taken by surprise. This time she's been taken by surprise twice in quick succession - first by her opponent suddenly stripping, and then secondly by her opponent suddenly striking! (Not by the catgirl thing, though. She did at least that much oppo research.) A driver nearby, pardon the pun, catcalling at Felicia's quickchange causes Iincyo to start, which unfortunately makes her just slightly too slow to dodge the attack, which catches her cleanly on the shoulder. She jumps back half a step.

With a grin, she replies, "Indeed, I am your opponent... and I see this kitty's got claws!" Using the momentum from the failed dodge, Iincyo briefly tries to recall any relevant portion of her training (then realizes it mostly consists of the phrase "WWDD?," or "What Would Dan Do?" without every clarifying that), breathes in time with her movements and tries to turn her spin into a swift kick, aimed at the catgirl's midsection.

"You know it!" Felicia grins, her fist meeting flesh and feeling the girl's skin against her knuckles with a satisfying smack. The kick takes Felicia off-guard--her expression shows it--shock and awe, not much pain--adrenaline isn't letting it kick in yet.

"Yeoow! Not the face!" the kick didn't come near to there--it more landed on her side and thigh, but it definitely hurt.

"Lets see how far I can throw you! Go long!" she yells to a random bystander as she tries to grab Iincyo by the shoulders and spin--trying to hurl her into a car in the process!

[IINCYO]
The random bystander Wilhelm screams as Felicia grabs Iincyo and hurls her directly at his car - but he doesn't move fast enough, because he's stuck in traffic! Lucky for him, the chairperson is good at tucking and rolling, and so the throw is somewhat blunted. It still *hurts* - getting thrown into a car is painful! - but Iincyo bounces back into the fisticuffs lane, safe from getting run over.

"Not bad," she shouts over the wind and honking car horns, "but your form could use some work!" She also turns to the driver and bows extremely quickly. "Sorry about your door." Never one to divert her attention from a task, Iincyo briefly sets her feet like a sprinter, charges towards Felicia and settles into a low shoulder stance that, if it connects, will be followed by a straight punch - hopefully making some room between the two.

[FELICIA]
"I have many forms!" Felicia replies, looking down at Iincyo as she gets up, she is standing straight up when Iincyo charges her--taking that check and punch to her midsection--which throws her in a gust of wind back into a nearby car. She lands on the hood, caving it in and completely smashing the windshield as it turns into a microcosm of white spiderwebbing, thankfully not breaking entirely inward and into the driver by the outer layer of material which barely holds it together. Felicia groans and pries herself off the roof of the car, the chassis bobbing as her weight shifts it around.

"Time to mix it up a bit," she cracks her knuckles and launches herself into a jump--rising high in the air and coming down with her leg out in a flying drop kick!

Felicia          1/----===/=======|>>>>>>>\-------\1           Iincyo

[IINCYO]
Seeing her opponent go high, Iincyo analyzes the situation, things almost seeming to go into slow motion. She could go into a dragon stance, but Felicia has clearly proven to be the faster of the two fighters; the chairperson would just get kicked in the ribs. For that reason, evading probably was out of the question too. Seeing that the catgirl was already aiming her attack, Iincyo decided to roll with it -- literally.

As Felicia's kick connects, Iincyo sidesteps ever so slightly, taking the brunt of the attack with her shoulder and stumbling away (internally wincing - had that attack hit too hard for this to work? - too late now, you've committed, go with it), before launching into a reverse roll. Coming up behind her opponent, Iincyo launches two quick rabbit punches - one, two, just so - then hops backwards half a step. She could feel herself starting to get into the groove of the fight, and allowed herself another moment of enjoyment. THIS was why she wanted to enter the tourney.

[FELICIA]
Felicia is surprised as the heel of her foot just only barely grazes the shoulder of the girl she was descending on--trying to land from the drop kick without falling and tumbling--landing but receiving the blows from Iincyo from behind--her back arching as the rabbit punches crash into her back and the back of her head, biting her tongue hard enough to draw blood as her jaws work in reaction.

"Agh--" blood is running down her chin and her back is in stinging pain, pulling herself back to her feet as she attempts to retaliate strong enough to count.

"Interrupt this!" she says, perhaps foreshading some upcoming horrible folly--and spins herself into a roll. Her chi begins to emit with a rainbow sheen over her entire body--coming out of the spin with a flurry of dance-like punches and kicks!

[IINCYO]
The Chairperson cannot interrupt this. That's just not happening. She can't even get out of the way. She has to simply brace herself against the chi-empowered fists of furry-sorry, fury - and, oh god, it doesn't work. Iincyo's feeble block crumbles and she goes flying backwards at a speed that shouldn't even be humanly possible, ping-ponging like a human pinball off a car, another car, and finally coming to rest against a pillar of the London Bridge itself. Passersby start to wonder if Iincyo is even going to stand back up.

And then she does. Somehow. She spits blood onto the pavement. She wipes more of it off her face, and some oozing from a gash on the back of her head, and everywhere else for that matter. She holds one of her ribs, winces, and then hops on top of a nearby car, attempting to walk it off - and then the adrenaline kicks in. Iincyo hops from one car to the next, landing in front of Felicia and trying to land a low kick to sweep the catgirl over. "I hope this has been enough of a real fight for you." As she attempts to launch into one last flurry of blows, her eyes burning, she adds, "It has been a pleasure for me, even should I fail! Your unorthodox methods are really something to behold." Having spoken enough, she attempts to summon up her chi reserves - nearly impossible under most circumstances, very tricky now - and channel them into one last blow.

[FELICIA]
Felicia unleashed that flurry of blows with her rainbow aura shining--the biceps of her arms and calves of her legs bulging as the chi enhanced the size of her muscles and strength. She relaxed only slightly as Iincyo went ping-ponging around, moving after her in a light run as she went bouncing. She runs right into the girls flurry of blows--head and shoulders jerking back and forth as if she was shot by a machine gun, thrashing back and forth.

"I'm not going down without a fight, sister," she spins and tries to grab Iincyo even with her broken body, trying to leap off the ground in the process to spin around her like a human scratching post!

[IINCYO]
Ducking low as Felicia attempts to land her seemingly-final attack (but was it? who can tell with catpeople, they bounce back, apparently), Iincyo tries to go into a textbook-perfect Dragon Stance and -- fails. Her mind goes blank. Maybe she moved that cracked rib the wrong way. Whatever the reason, she accomplishes nothing more than just throwing herself in the way of Felicia's attack, and is ferociously clawed before being thrown to the ground. Her body bounces off the pavement, finally lying still as all her energy reserves go out and the Chairperson ends up flat on her back, nearly knocked out.

"Your turn... Hideo," she mutters before blacking out.

A KOF-associated helicopter circling overhead signals the end of the round for Hard Knocks' first fighter. Now it's up to one of their other members to get them through the qualifier!

[FELICIA]
Felicia wavers after she was done zipping around Iincyo and throws her at the very last bit--her toes gripping the asphalt and tearing up pebbles as she martialed the leverage to fluidly throw Iincyo at the very end of her spin. She lands on the ground and Felicia pants, falling to her knees as she tries to recover.

"I need a bath... and a nap, then probably a stiff drink, not in that order," she whimpers.

[HIDEO]
In the empty lane of traffic, a lone man walked. He was dressed in a white buttoned shirt, a striped tie, and professional slacks. The man filling the uninteresting clothes was the bespectacled teacher of Justice High, the Machine Professor, Hideo Shimazu. He approached the hulked out cat woman eye's tilted down slightly. He looked at Felicia, showing curiosity at this cat. But he returned his focus on the incoming fight.
% He pushed his glassed back and made eye contact. He spoke in a dry and uninteresting tone with all the enthusiasm o a text book. "Evening ma'am, I believe I will be your next opponent."

He clasped together his hands with a small space in-between. From his palms, blue energy grew and swirled. He then sent the blue ball forward at the cat.

[FELICIA]
"Next challenger?" Felicia asked as she pulled herself up, her mouth bloody from having bit her tongue earlier and looking quite unsteady after that flurry of blows she had received. She was ready this time for the blast of energy and raised her arms to block it--feeling the sting as the energy bit into them.

"Yeow! Take this!" she launched herself forward, in a sort of pounce--her body beginning to glow with the cat-like chi energy, in a prisma of colors--attempting to latch onto him for another claw-shredding spin attack around him!

Felicia's pounce prompted Hideo to defend himself, he put his hands between him and the cat. The lunge was distanced. The vortex of blood, chi, claws, and fur, lashed at Hideo far less than it would have if the talons ripped his flesh.

As his loafers slid on the wet asphalt, Hideo launched forwards with a punch to the vortex center.

Felicia only winds up grazing Hideo with her claws, apparently, the attack being blocked somehow. She landed on the street, her toenails clawing up more pebbles of the street as she skids across the ground.

"Shoulda worn boots, you got no claws or fur like me!" she grins, her cat-like fangs making her look bestial in the low light. Rolling out of the way of her opponent's punch, she stretched her arms and legs out, leaping towards Hideo to try and grab him--unleashing a flurry of claw swipes to his front and face!

Felicia was grabbed by her ankles and slammed into the ground, but she managed to kick out of Hideo's hands after the strike--rolling herself back until she was back on her feet several feet away. Summoning a burst of chi, she rolled into a ball again and sped toward the teacher--her chi wreathing her in an eerie blue, like St. Elmo's fire. Looks like she was determined to teach him a few things!

"Gah, why won't you... just... fall over already," Felicia wavers, like she's just about to, it seems! She cocks her right arm back and attempts to haul off with a straight punch right at Hideo's face after blocking that light kick of his, it looks like this is it for the cat!

Hideo watched as Felicia's stance wavered. He suspected she might fall over right onto the pavement. But the punch she threw was unexpected. It blow hit him square in the nose, but she kept her momentum. After the blow to his face, Felicia body kept moving forwards.

Hideo's face would've been crushed, if not for the soft furry airbags his face encountered first. As the blood dripped from his nose, Hideo saw an opening. He sent a quick fist to skin this cat.

[ELIZA]
The moment that her feline partner had gone down, Eliza is....sleeping.

Small delicate breathes leave her lips, as she seems to have found a corner to just lean up against. It almost seems like the woman didn't even realize that she was in a fight! That is, until the Darkstalker explodes and...stays down from it. Who would've thought, exploding can knock you out!

With all the sound and fury, the Vampiress is shaken from her slumber. Her left eye opening to reveal a dark red gaze, "Oh..." She yawns out and pushes off her selected corner, raising her arms up as she stretches out. "I guess...mmm." She gently wipes her eyes. "I guess it's my turn?" She asks curiously.

Thats when those blood red orbs settle on Hideo, gauging him and taking in what he was. Slowly Eliza's lips pull into a smile, as she began to walk towards the man. Her heels clacked against the blacktop and her hips swayed with each movement she took. "Hello there." She offered to Hideo, stretching a delicate hand towards him. "Im Eliza, and I believe Im your opponent now?"

With her hand offered, it almost seems as if the woman wants to atleast introduce herself formally to Hideo. Though her eyes quickly narrow, and her fangs are flashed in a devilish way. With a quick lunge, the hand is then pushed into an open palmed strike!

Hideo looks at the woman's offered hand, and begins to accept it. When her fang flash and palm forced, he is caught unawares. He leans forward from the pain of the strike, and looks at her. He speaks to her in a voice he normally reserved for students who cheat.

"That was rather rude of you Miss."

Hideo then reached out to grab Eliza by her arms. He would plan to grab her, roll backwards with her in toe, then kick her away towards the line of traffic.

[ELIZA]
Hideo's grab was successful, as the Vampiress took a moment to savor his pain. It's almost as if she was enjoying a fine wine, it was intoxicating; Intoxicating enough to cause a quick lapse of reactions. Where she would normally pull her arm away, she instead left it for the man to grab.

Though as Hideo's hands grasped, it shook her back to reality! While she was not able to leap back from his grabby hands, she did brace herself. Even as Hideo leaned back and launched her upwards an into traffic, she is able to brace herself enough to not take too much damage from the initial strike. She is still sent flying backwards and towards the oncoming cars!

This is where her dark nature comes into play!

Almost impossibly, Eliza comes to a controlled spin in air and then slams back down onto the ground. A small rainbow aura surrounds her body. The aura slowly splinters into small bat like silhouettes. "Oooh..." She moans out, her painted red lips turning to a smirk. "Someone's a little angry about my love taps..."

Moving up and away from the cars, Eliza raises her hands up in a fighting posture. "Lets...." She yawns, "Lets see what you can really do..."

Lazily she sidles back and forth in a drunken manner, making it harder and harder to predict what she'll do. Then suddenly, and almost as if she had simply disappeared, she rushes at Hideo with her deadly signature strike!

Hideo turned around to see his opponent. He saw her shift, her body side to side. He looked at the full view of her blood bags as she threw out her talon. AS the claw slashed his face, the bags brushed once again against his face. This was the second time this fight.

He just had to think of Kyoko.

As even more blood gushed from his nose, he turned his attention to beating this woman. He cleared his mind of such thoughts, he turned to focus. He would take advantage of this opening, and launch in straight into the air with a rising uppercut of maximum effort!

Eliza just continues to smirk at Hideo, a growing bloodlust just emerging within her. Every second that the man bled, she continued to grow more and more insatiable.

The growing urge to feed on his life's essence was becoming more than she could handle. It was moments like these, that allowed the Vampiress to let her defenses down. It was at these moments that she would make mistakes...

As Hideo moved down and into a stance, Eliza just locked her cold gaze onto him. Those red orbs reading what was to come and the amount of pain it would inflict! Her only recourse was to attempt pushing Hideo away from her! Summoning up what little dark energy she could in that time, Eliza attempts to unleash her deadly darkness. It was too late, and the attempt left the woman flying into the air. The energy quickly dissipating as she landed back onto the ground.

[HIDEO]
Hideo succeeded in his rising uppercut and launched them both into the air. While Eliza fell, Hideo found an opportunity. He was going to rain justice from above with a drop kick aimed for Eliza's mid section. Turning the force that lifted him up, into the force that would strike Eliza.

As Hideo turned both his own weight and gravity into a deadly weapon, Eliza can do little more than simply observe the man performing his impressive fighting feats. Though something seems strangely off with all this. His bloody gaze locks onto Hideo's face, her eyes just looking into his own. Almost as if she WANTED this to go down this way. While a bit bloodied up, Eliza still seemed quite cool at all of this. The only difference being, that she didn't seem as if she was in a tired stupor anymore.

Both of the combatants slammed into the ground, and HARD. The pavement cracking from the sheer force of Hideo's attack! Though a small groan of pain left Eliza, something else had been taking place.

Within an instant, Eliza had brought forth her dark powers to bear witness too. The woman was now surrounded by that same -dark- rainbow aura. It's very nature is that of malice brought into the physical realm, despite it's brilliant colors. Rising up, Eliza continued to just stare down Hideo. "Im putting an end to this, mortal." She intones, before disappearing. That's right, she is -gone-. Almost as if she hadn't existed in the first place.

The Vampiress doesn't let Hideo wait for too long, his own attack had bought her in close enough, for a chance to completely get through the man's defenses.

This was the moment to strike.

Moving so fast, the Vampiress appeared all about Hideo and attempting to lunge attacks at him. Her speed is so great, it almost appears as if there is multiples of her attacking!

Hideo saw the woman flare into a dark rainbow. He recognized he was facing a foe most unnatural, much like the cat. When she left the light, Hideo stood his ground. When the swarm of monsters attacked, he remained firm.

Each lash from the shades was met with a blow in turn. Hideo was fight alone against a small army, and he was fighting it to a stand still. When the sward faded, he spoke back.

"I will not end this quietly, I will fight against your night."

Then, once again a blue orb of flames launched from his hands. Aimed for the beast of the night.

The Vampiress just continued to charge forward, he arms raised up and taking the orb of azure fire. The aura about her body protected her from most of the brunt, but it still left a nasty looking singe along her forearms. There was no more speaking from her, merely a grunt of pain as she continued to try an assault Hideo.

Once close enough, the woman leapt into the air. He arms moved behind her as she began to descend upon the man. All of a sudden, a quick burst of power propelled her even faster than before. With some luck, she hopes to bring a nasty jump kick down onto Hideo!

COMBATSYS: Hideo interrupts Majestic Stomp from Eliza with Taikuu Seihaken EX.

[HIDEO]
As Eliza came from the air, Hideo reacted accordingly. He Sent out another orb of light, with more power, directly into the path of the pouncing vampire. The blue flames halted her movement as she crashed down on him. He was knocked to his feet, and slowly returned to a stand.

[ELIZA]
The Vampiress is tossed from the air, and to the side. The blue flames having enough power to knock her clean off course! She smashes to the ground with some considerable force, and her body now shimmers with both the dark rainbow and blue flicks of fire.

Quickly turning her head, Eliza just scowls towards Hideo. A small curl of her upper lip shows her disgust with this human. However, she remains as cool as she can be. She HAS to finish this insignificant ant off. SHE. HAS. TOO!

Summoning up all the reserves of her dark power, Eliza moves it into her hands. Then with a small toss from each hand, she sends brilliant blasts of her aura out towards Hideo.

Unlike before, these blasts begin picking up more speed and at about half way towards their target, they burst with even MORE power. They shine like minature suns as the fly towards the man!

Meanwhile, Eliza falls to her knees as the attack completely drains her reserves.

COMBATSYS: Eliza knocks away Hideo with Dark Wave Chaos.

Hideo            1/--=====/=======|=------\-------\0            Eliza

[HIDEO]
Hideo came to a stand to see Eliza prepare he attack. Seeing the dark waves consume the cars to the sides ahead, he removed he metal shoulder pads and placed them in front of him to act as a shield. But it failed...

Hideo was tossed into the air with a few cars due to the impact. He could feel the shadows grow closer. He would not let that be his end.

From the air, he turned her own force into his own. He did his falling kick once more, aimed for Eliza's head. If it hit, he would turn around mid air for another kick until a third and final below.

He would only then, drift into the dark, floating in a pool of blood.

COMBATSYS: Hideo can no longer fight.

[ELIZA]
Eliza was SPENT. Her aura quickly fizzles out, small energy bats sqeaking before popping out of the physical realm. Eliza herself is breathing HARD, having made one too many mistakes during the match. Though it seems she came out on top and put Hideo down...

Or so she thought!

The weakened Vampiress could barely believe that the man was STILL coming at her. In her power deprived state, she was more in a lame stupor and was barely able to keep up with her opponents moves! In a last ditch effort, she raised her hands up in a feeble block. While it wasn't the most coordinated of defenses, it was -enough-.

Hideo's downward kick came flying down, moved /just barely/ away from Eliza's head to her shoulder. His foot creating a sickening crack, as her shoulder and collar bone break under the stress of the attack. "AHHHH!!!" Eliza cried out, and fell to the ground.

She's barely able to keep herself balanced on one hand, from the sheer trauma of the attack! The Vampiress doess however, keep herself awake. "No....I...." She breathed out. "I wont go down like this."

COMBATSYS: Eliza has ended the fight here.
