Description: Kain takes on a team of youngsters in a Special Order match. Things seem to be going fairly well for Kain at first, until Shingo steps into the ring. In the end, only Dong Hwan is standing, though Kain gives him something to think about, just before the end. (Winners: Shingo/DongHwan/Elena)

Elena arrives at the designated time, rather glad for an early morning event. Of course, it's somewhat at odds with the title Saturday NIGHT Fight, but does Elena complain? F no! She pads across the river bed on tough bare feet, grinning cheerfully. "Morning!" she calls cheerfully before dropping into her usual combat stance, shuffling her feet and rolling her shoulders as she gets into the rhythm of Southtown.
Kain is waiting at the riverbed a good hour before the fight is actually slated to begin. Not that he's particularly excited about the fight, but it should at least be an interesting opportunity. He didn't do quite as well as he'd hoped in the last SNF, after all.
Once his opponents arrive, Kain is quick to get things underway. He gives the three fighters a brief nod, waiting to see which two they'll send out first. And once the announcer shouts "Fight!", he's off. Who to attack first? Well, as luck would have it, Elena seems to be closest. And so Kain rushes in toward her, lashing out with a nasty rising kick to the stomach as he gets close. The kick alone has enough force to lift a person off the ground, but it's joined by a nice explosion of purple fire on impact.

One of these special rules matches Geese has set up, eh? Shingo finally gets his chance to see first-hand how these things work out. He was there to witness the first one involving Megumi against Nassir, Jiro, and Gabriel and just like he thought his pink-haired friend came out on top. This fight, however, he is most assuredly certain as certain is that the end results will be different this time around. Shingo sits out the first round for now. He'd rather watch and observe the other fighters first. Notebook in hand he chooses a nice spot to get a good view of the entire fight and take notes. Everyone got his usual greeting and he also cheers on his teammates.
Yeah, Dong Hwan is here too. Stretching having come and gone, his legs both lifted up above his head to make sure he's as limber as he needs to be, he straightens out to bounce on his feet eagerly, grinning over at his opponent. "Hey, beautiful! How about you and me go on a da-oh crap it's a man." A man who's attacking the pair. "Hey, back off the gal!" Dong Hwan says as Kain heads for Elena, charging towards Kain as quick as his legs will carry him. Rather than trying to defend the woman, he instead uses the distraction to return fire on Kain, a single leg swinging around once he's close to stomp the ground hard underneath Kain, a large lightning spark formed around Dong Hwan's leg, sending a powerful surge through Kain, with any luck causing him to stagger a bit.
Elena leaps backwards away from the strike with a startled "Yow!" Her body twists artfully to the side, long legs backpedalling. "Wow, you must be really good!" He wouldn't be challenging three opponents if he wasn't, though. She glances at Dong Hwan with a fond smile, head tilted faintly. Awfully sweet of him, really. But even as she moves to dodge Kain's strike, she's launching into her first attack as she leaps, her long leg cutting through the air and propelling her forward with the force of its momentum. "Rhino Horn!" she announces. (Because, you know, shouting beefs up one's mighty chi powah.)

The crackling electricity around Dong Hwan's foot certainly attracts some attention from Kain, but it fails in its actually purpose, as the blond man simply hops to one side, letting the energy pass harmlessly into the ground. This does, however, take him into the path of Elena's attack. He twists his body to the side, bracing himself as Elena's foot crashes into his arm, doing less damage than she might have hoped.
As soon as she bounces off of him, Kain lashes out with another attack at the girl, purple flames springing into being around his hand as he attempts to slam his fist into Elena's jaw in a nasty hook. Seems he doesn't have any problems with hitting girls. He wouldn't have any problems with hitting Dong Hwan either, but the Korean is going to have to do a bit more to grab his attention.

Whiffah! Dong Hwan frowns as his kick is avoided, giving a bit of a grunt in Kain's general direction. Any fond looks by Elena are, sadly for the Korean, missed. Dong Hwan doesn't move far away however, the leg stomped down shifting it's purpose, the leg still surrounded by an crackling electricity as he uses it to send him slightly airborne, the leg lifting up and around in a full circle, Dong Hwan's torso leaning out to the side to accomplish this feat. The leg aims to come down on Kain with the arc of energy following behind it for extra oomph, a successful hit being rung out with a loud 'snap', like a very big static shock. Either way, the energy disperses, either through Kain or along the ground, after impact. With any luck, it'll get Kain's, attention at least.
Elena crosses her arms before her face defensively, but even so, the fiery strike stings *quite* a bit. She shakes out her arms with a quiet hissed intake of breath between clenched teeth, regarding her opponent carefully. She'd never faced anyone like him before, he's definitely tough! Dragging her foot along the ground to stir up a cloud of dust, she snaps out her leg out and up in a gravity-defying kick, with a trail of dirt and tiny pebbles following the wake of her attack.

Dong Hwan's kick certainly grabs Kain's attention, at least enough for him to bring up one of his arms, blocking the incoming leg. The electricity still makes its way through him and down to the ground, but being prepared allows him to use his own chi manipulation abilities to reduce it to a slight tingle. For Elena's attack, Kain simply leans back and out of the way, letting her foot sail harmlessly through the air in front of him, although the front of his suit still gets showered with dirt and pebbles.
Kain shoves out briefly with his blocking arm, trying to get the Korean away for long enough to perform another attack. While Elena is finishing up her own kick, Kain throws his arms out to either side, an explosion of flame bursting forth and threatening to engulf the girl. A moment later Kain thrusts his arms right through the cloud of fire, twin jets of flame shooting from his hands toward Elena.

Elena flails, trying to leap backwards onto her hands to avoid the powerful assault, but alas, to no avail! OWND. Elena yelps painfully as she's flung back brutally, crashing to the ground and skidding over the rocky river bed. Ow. Ow ow ow ow ow. Her arms tremble as she struggles to rise, panting for breath. "W-what I wouldn't give to be able to hit with that much p-power..." she stammers. Still smiling. Plucky wench.
A hit, while not solid, is certainly a step up. Dong Hwan must be doing something right. Landing in a crouch after his hit is deflected away from that soft cranium of Kain's, slightly off to the side of Kain, he's in a good position to drive a fist into the man's side, lashing out with a quick punch, a follow up to the last attack, not enough to harm the man seriously, but hopefully fast enough to connect at very least.

As Elena goes flying back, Kain spies the incoming attacking from Dong Hwan out of the corner of his eye. He tries to twist out of the way, but isn't quite fast enough, taking a clean hit to the side. Even that doesn't seem to particularly bother him, however, as he continues with his spinning motion. Looks like Elena is going to get some more instruction in powerful hits, as Kain launches himself off the ground, leaping toward her with his right leg outstretched. Purple flames trail behind him as he flies toward the girl, intending to slam his foot right into her chest, which will be followed by a nice firey explosion.

Success! Of course, it would seem that it only did a touch more than his deflected kick. The prod was hopefully enough to ruin the up until then impenetrable defense of the man. As Kain attacks, Dong Hwan actually backs off; Elena looks to be holding her own, so Dong Hwan doesn't feel the need to butt in just yet. Instead, static energy starts to snap in the air around Dong Hwan, sparks forming as he starts to gather up energy for a later attack...

Elena doesn't just back away. She runs like hell with a squeak of surprise. While she's very flattered that Kain would opt to take her out first, his hits cause her no undue amount of alarm. At least, until she can get back on her feet and catch her breath. "Whooooa! That was close!" she puffs out her breath, and chuckles faintly. Skidding to a halt and crouching low to the ground, Elena leaps towards Kain in a whirlwind of kicks. To the shin, to the stomach, and up onto her palm to spiral two more blows at his chin...with the grace and speed of a crazed breakdancer who chugged too much Red Bull. "Woo!" she exclaims, exhaling heavily as she drops back to the ground, hunkering down to pant for breath.

The sparks coming from Dong Hwan don't seem to be an immediate threat, so Kain continues to focus on Elena as she comes leaping toward him. His response? Getting the hell out of the way by jumping to the side, letting Elena's kicks strike empty air. While she's still in the process of landing, Kain whips one of his arms in her direction, a ball of dark flame leaping from his finger tips and sailing toward the girl.

Elena is not faring very well at all. The Schwarze Flame crashes heavily into Elena and produces not a yelp, but a very definite scream. She sways unsteadily, out of synch with her steps. But even so, she's determined to get in one last hit. Praying to get in one last hit, anyway. Or several, if she's lucky! She cartwheels towards Kain, striking out with her legs as swift and hard as she can. It lacks the momentum she might have wanted, and the rhythm is shaky, but it's still a beautiful move to watch. "Heh..." she drops to her knees once it's over, swaying back and forth, her blue eyes bleary with pain. "That's that, then...thaaAaanks...forthefibwah..." Then she tips over at last, sinking gratefully into unconsciousness.

Oh snap, Elena exploded. Time to continue the attacks. A soft crack signifies the energy around Dong Hwan being gathered up into him being complete, a big grin on his face as he jumps into the air in Kain's direction. As he comes within range, he cuts down at a sharp angle, three kicks aimed for his opponent, alternating legs on the way down, are sent for his opponent's torso, or arms, or wherever. Clearly to soften his opponent up a bit, trying to wear him down.

As Elena comes cartwheeling in, Kain starts to move out of the way... and manages to step on an abandoned soda can, throwing him off balance just long enough for Elena's kicks to land home, sending the German staggering briefly back. You see what happens when you litter!? He does, however, have enough time to respond to the incoming attacks from Dong Hwan, deflecting the incoming kicks with his arms.
As soon as the last kick comes in though, Kain is drawing his hands back and to the side. "Himmlische..." A spark of gold flame appears between Kain's hands, then expands outwards into a massive orb of roiling golden chi, surrounded by a crackling aura of energy as he thrusts his hands in Dong Hwan's direction. "...Macht!" And then the sphere shoots out from Kain's hands, but it doesn't fly straight on towards the Korean. No, it bobs and weaves, sailing through the air in crazy zig-zags as it zooms toward Dong Hwan. And then, just before he'd be engulfed in the storm of chi, rather than continuing onwards... it explodes. Kaboom!

With the kick delivered, Dong Hwan hesitates in the fighting to look towards Elena, trying to see if she's ok. Deciding that she clearly isn't but he doesn't have time to worry about her, anyway, he looks up as he sees the power ball flying towards him, eyes a bit wide as it zigzags its way for him. Arms lift up cover his chest and face, the more tender bits of his body protected from the pain of the attack. The hit is still enough to send him to the ground, ending up in a sitting position. "Waugh!" He groans, hopping back up to his feet quickly despite just feeling like he defended against a freight train. And once again he's airborne, a brighter kick on his face this time.
"Try again!" Dong Hwan suggests, jackknifing down towards him like the start of his just finished Hishou Kyaku. But instead, if he hits, the kick will daze Kain enough that Dong Hwan can give a second kick to his opponent's gut, strong enough to send the fighter into the air. And then he starts spinning at an angle parallel to Kain, kicking him with the heel of one foot before spinning and hitting with the ball of his other. This happens for three spins, or six kicks, before he flips upside down, a leg coming from over the pair to kick Kain one last time, knocking him back down to the ground below them. Of course, Kain might just step back two feet and avoid all the pain, that's always a possibility, too.
One of the problems when it comes to observing matches between fighters of this calibre is that the fight itself is usally completed in less than a minute. Average time most typically being thirty-seconds per round. Unless there was an another factor which would stretch out that length such as is the case when combating healers. This detail isn't much of a problem for Shingo. This is the boy who learned a martial arts system by only taking notes of his idol performing each move -once- for him first-hand. Also being a senior in highschool means that he would have to be quick with the note taking. He would've preferred to make some more observations first, but this will have to do now that the dark-skinned girl was defeated.
"SHINGO KIIIIIICKU!" The boy wastes no time in tucking the book safely away and leaping high into the air from his position to bring the leg crashing down at Kain in an almost lethal way at the German's head if Kain were any less of a man. The sharp arc of the boy's signature kick making it look like he was painting a deadly rainbown in the sky.

Indeed, Kain does evade the Super Dong Hwan Kyaku by simply stepping backwards, allowing the Korean youth to do horrible, painful things to the ground underfoot. Unfortunately, he's not quite as prepared for the incoming kick from Shingo. Kain staggers away from Shingo thanks to the force of the impact, taking a moment to recover himself. That was the heaviest hit he's taken so far in this match. Guess who's got Kain's attention now?
Even after a hit like that, Kain is back on the offensive fairly quickly. His arms move out slightly to either side, and then he thrusts them both in Shingo's direction. Fireballs leap from each of his hands, spiralling around one another as they sail in toward Shingo, hopefully dealing him some damage as a 'thank you' for the Shingo Kick.
Hey, who's the new guy? He looks familiar. Dong Hwan looks vaguely impressed by Shingo's Kick, having time to look after he lands from his unfortunately missed super. Dong Hwan lifts his arms up in front of his face to make sure he doesn't get hit. Of course, it takes a minute before he even realizes that he's not being attacked. Ok, good to know. With that in mind, Dong Hwan charges for Kain, trying to come up behind him so that Dong Hwan can jump on his foes' back. He just wants a piggyback ride!
Those paying attention might be able to hear while he was sprinting, "Just pretend he's a woman... He's got the hair for it..." Anyway, if he can get his legs firmly around Kain's waist, Dong Hwan would twist his torso suddenly, the motion hopefully enough to spin his opponent right off of his feet, ending up with him landing on his head and shoulders, Dong Hwan landing on top of him. Eh, it's a long shot, but Dong Hwan never was one to think his actions out!

His entrance into the fray started off so well too. A well-placed Shingo Kick to the skull and he made sure that Kain felt his presence. A little too well he notes to himself as the blond man ignites flames from his hands and toss them over in the boy's direction. 'So that's what a fireball spell would like like' is what he thinks to himself as he remembers the tabletop RPGs some of his friends from school sometimes play. Shingo crosses his forearms to cover himself from the great balls of fire. His mind already concocting a strategy to keep up the offensive. All he has to do is block this attack and then....
"Ouch!" ...get burned to a nice toasty crisp. What the heck happened there? Shingo has no idea. All he remembers is lifting his hands to block and then *WHAM* he becomes a BBQ Shingo. Those flames feeling real. Not like chi. Somehow. What's with all these people creating flames but him? He will have to ponder this later. Gritting his teeth and not even bothering to pat out the embers burning on his clothing, Shingo charges at Kain just as Dong is about to leap on his back. Working in tandem, or so Shingo hopes, he twists his body to come in with a massive shoulder ram at Kain. Not at his torso, but lower. His legs. To aid Dong's plan of having the German land flat on his face. "ORA! ORA!"

Kain manages to hear Dong Hwan coming up behind him. He's not sure exactly what the Korean has planned, but he has no intention of simply waiting to find out. He hops out of the way, letting Dong Hwan grasp only air... and then there's Shingo's attack. It should be easy enough to stop, it's a rather simple and direct attack. Kain braces himself for the oncoming attack, preparing to let Shingo's shoulder charge just bounce off of him... to no avail. Shingo hits lower than the German was expecting, sweeping him off his feet, and slamming him into the ground. At least the two attacks didn't manage to combine.
Kain grunts as he begins getting back to his feet. Things aren't going quite as well as he might have hoped. And Shingo is rather stronger than he was expecting, already having done as much damage as both other fighters combined. It doesn't look like Kain is going to win this one, but that doesn't mean he's going to give up! He raises one hand up toward the sky, a flash of gold light appearing in his grasp for a moment. "Himmlischer..." The air above Shingo begins to swirl with greenish-blue energy as Kain clenches his fist. "...Atem!" Kain draws his hand rapidly down, crouching forward as he thrusts his palm toward the ground. And all of that energy over Shingo follows his motion, slamming down toward the boy in three massive waves of raw chi energy.
Landing flat on his back, Dong Hwan scrambles back to his feet quickly. Clearly, it's time to break out tactics, since attacking with whatever seems most appropriate at the time certainly isn't rewarding Dong Hwan. Kain, still preoccupied with Shingo, no doubt will feel the gathering of energy behind him, and the crackle of more of Dong Hwan's lightning being built up. A leg is planted down once again, sending him up into the air, a repeat performance of a previously blocked move, hopefully harder to avoid. Shingo, distract Kain harder! The leg is swung up and around in another full circle, coming down into Kain's back with the added shock of some electricity Chi around the foot. Yes, Raimei Zan Spam /is/ tactical.

"Him list what?" Shingo peers at the strange language coming forth from the man. The boy back on his feet after tackling out Kain's feet out from under him. Failing to notice in the least that his teammate didn't even connect with his tactic. For you see, Shingo has other things to worry about instead. Namely the triple threat of huge blasts of energy from the heavens. Next time he shouldn't concern himself with the words coming out of someone's mouth in the middle of the fight if he doesn't actually understand the language they're speaking. It is extremely hazardous to his health. Mostly because it takes away his attention and leaves him wide open. How...ironic.
Each blast of energy strikes Shingo solidly from above and pummeling onto the ground. Every time he goes to get up the other beam keeping him down. Until the volley is over. Shingo lays there, almost defeated. Almost but not quite. He pushes up to his feet panting hard. Wiping blood flowing from his lip and nose, Shingo winces out a smile at Kain, "You're really good." He coughs. "But now I gotta burn you. Burning...." Shingo launches himself at Kain in the shortest distance and fastest way he knows how. A powerful right hook homed in on in the centre of his torso.

Oh ye of little faith. This one is for all of you out there that ever doubted the strenght and power of this Kusanagi-ryuu kobojutsu student. He sure showed all of you. Sure he was taken out in two attacks. But he still managed to accomplish more than the previous two fighters before on his team. Namely giving Kain enough damage to bring the powerful German man down. Instantly after the first blow is struck, Shingo spins around with another punch to the same spot. And another. Using both hands now he just unleashes a barrage upon the man's torso. Finishing off the combination with a reverse elbow rising lariat ala the Oniyaki Mikansei. His normal landing after the move crippled by his injuries, Shingo lands on his feet and drops to his knees on the verge of passing out. But he keeps himself awake.
And, well, ow. Shingo just getting back to his feet is pretty impressive, and to still be able to move like this after taking a hit like that... even before the blow lands Kain is already impressed by Shingo. Of course, he didn't actually think he was going to get hit. His attempts at stepping out of the way are cut off, however, as Shingo's fist slams into his chest, and the rest of the technique easily follows from there, giving Kain no chance to escape. At the same time, Dong Hwan's kick slams into him from behind, giving even more force to the blows being landed by Shingo. There's several loud grunts of pain from Kain, and then he staggers away from Shingo, doubling over. "Very impressive..."
But then Shingo falls to his knees, and the only other fighter still standing is Dong Hwan, who Kain just happens to have stumbled towards. Kain himself doesn't have much fight left in him, but it's still easy enough for him to summon up his chi. He continues staggering towards the Korean fighter, lunging awkwardly at him in an attempt to grab hold of him. He's not planning a throw, or a joint lock, or anything of that sort, though. He just wants to get close before he causes his entire body to burst into flames, purple fire engulfing the area immediately around him with a blast of heat and a load roar. It's a rather desperate last action though, and awkward enough that Dong Hwan will likely be able to avoid it, if he's still on his guard. Kain is pretty much out of it after that, falling to his knees before collapsing to the ground. He's not unconcious, but it's going to be a while before he manages to catch his breath.

Hey look, Shingo did it. How expected! But, with Shingo down, if apparently not out, and Kain's wounds too much for him to continue going either, Dong Hwan is left the only one still standing. Obviously his it was his fighting genius, or the fact that he couldn't piss off Kain enough to get the guy to attack him more than once. Or twice, now.
Sadly for Dong Hwan, for all his luck, he couldn't evade this attack. It could be blamed on a hundred different things, but the fact is, he's grabbed and immolated as is desired. Even though the flame doesn't last once Kain completes the technique, Dong Hwan immediately drops to the ground and starts rolling around once he's released, though he quickly realizes he's just burned as opposed to still on fire. "Owowow." Dong Hwan mumbles as he gets back up to his feet. Everyone else is down, but Dong Hwan is not. "I'm the greatest!" Dong Hwan proclaims, with both arms thrown up into the air above him, fists still balled. Channeling Dan, perhaps? His arms move back down to his sides, wincing a little bit as he decides it's about time to go put some Aloe on his sounds...
Who cares who the greatest is as long as they accomplished what they et out to do right? Which was to defeat Kain in this SNF match-up. Which they did. Shingo is happy that he could contribute so well to the teamwork effort. Looking over to where Kain went down, the boy smiles and gives a thumbs-up -- right after he wipes away some more blood -- to Kain to show that he thought it was a really awesome match and to show respect to the man. His hand drops to his side once the medics make their way over to take care of him though. Time to witness some more of the wonders of medical science. Now all he has to worry about is what he's going to do with the prize money...
