SNF 2005.08 - Alma/Gabriel/Johnny FFA

Description: It's Alma, teenaged psychic heartthrob, versus Gabriel, Maiden of Light, versus the Blue Blade. Explosions! Suspense! Devastating supers! People double-teaming that darn psi! This fight has it all, but in the end, Gabriel comes out on top; in a good mood, too. (Winner: Gabriel)



Today's fight is getting lucky on publicity. It's a lovely Saturday, and quite a few families have come out on little picnics to this vast and well-kept park. Some other day there might have been a festival or some sort of gathering -- considering the weather, they missed out! -- but this time, there's only Saturday Night Fights, and those few that were not quite so interested in the idea of a family picnic (young and teenage boys and girls, mainly) have wandered over to the sounds and sights of a growing gathering of people around a large flat dais set in the growd on a slightly raised location. Usually this is used for musical performances; today, people are going to be beating each other up on it.
Musical performance, Saturday Night Fight, staying at home baking cookies: either way, Alma Towazu, pretty psychic extraordinaire, could be more than satisfied. But today is a day for pursuing, yet more, his newfound passion for the fight. So, wearing his short-sleeved dark silk shirt and designer jeans, the tall, bronze-skinned fighting model quietly stretches, his usual composed, mild, slightly mysterious smile on his features. Seeming completely oblivious to the sounds around him. For example.
"Aaaalmaaaa! Almaaa-kuuuuuuuun! We loooooove yooouuu!"
Ah yes. Middle school girls.
No, wait, he hears them; he waves, his smile widening, but as they collapse in fits of giggles, he turns back to the dais, and steps up, to await his opponents...

Kai Gabriel arrives early, always, it's polite. but she never makes a scene and lacks a following. She makes her way out, dressed, stretched and geared up to get this on the road. She does offer a bow toward Alma and in the direction of her other opponent, whenever he shows up, but otherwise seems fairly indifferent. She checks her pendant, prays over it quietly while the announcer tries to get her name right. He has it written on a card yes, but apparently expected a boy.

Let not the actions of past, attacking Alma and his friends enter into her mind. She tries her best to look stoic about everything but a hint of guilt shows through.

Running up to the impromptu ring set up in the middle of the park, the Blue Blade, dressed in his usual leather jacket worn over his blue and white wrestling attire, complete with a like-colored lucha mask, opened on the top to let his glossy pompadour triumphantly through. Waving to the crowd as he runs, the Blue Blade vaults as the announcers calls his name, flipping forward into the ring and landing neatly in his place an equal distance away from his opponents. "Aha! Es yo, el Blue Blade!" <It is I, the Blue Blade> the Blue Blade calls as he thrusts his fist into the air, totally ignoring his opponents, even as Gabriel bows to him. "¡Mira demuestro a estos tontos que es el mejor!" <Watch as I show these fools who is the best!>

Alma looks mildly entertained by the Blue Blade's entrance, but his main focus is on Gabriel. He raises an eyebrow slightly, before bowing to her in return. "It's nice to see you again, Kai-san," he says, sounding his usual cheerfully neutral self. "Let's not let our current differences get in the way of a good, professional match." He stands straighter as he says it, and his eyes glimmer quietly with a warm light; at first he looks like he thinks he's acting nobly or something, but then it becomes clear it's just an Alma thing -- as he says things and acts in a way that he feels is Right, the rhythm of the fight begins to come to him quicker. Little dark pinkish sparks begin to encircle his forearms, until they grow into coils of Psycho Power, swirling around his arms.
"Well, everyone," he says, slowly growing a grin, "please, do your best."
"The Blue Blade! Alma Towazu! Gabriel Kai! A Free-For-All Match! ...FIGHT!"
Alma does not move, but continues to build the coils of energy around his arms, touching upon the Way he's found... or whatever it is he says he does.

COMBATSYS: Alma gathers his will.

Let he or she who is free from sin cast the first stone. Kai Gabriel is apparently not free from sin, for she does not cast the first stone, she runs up toward Alma, giving him a quick, "Alma-san, we have no differences, we are.. very good friends," not sarcastically said, but more like sadly. As if their real life outside of this fight situation couldn't be worse.

Then to show her affection she jumps up toward Alma to try and get her knees around his head and then to try rotating him around with her weight to well.. drive his head into the ground. Oh the list of people this move has been borrowed from . .

"Oh HO HO!" The Blue Blade laughs raucously as Gabriel runs up to Alma and attacks him. Pointing to Alma and Gabriel, one with each hand, the Blue Blade shouts, "You both will feel the cut of my blade!" Warming up his arms by slapping each in turn on the biceps and gesturing to the crowd, the Blue Blade leaps from side to side and pumps his fists some more. Ah, the fine tradition of wrestling posturing, isn't it grand?

"I'm glad you feel that way too," Alma says, as Gabriel leaps up to -- leap her legs around his head? Some of the middle school girls look a bit angry at that, but much to their relief, Alma is able to perceive the attack coming and snap up with his forearms, giving him enough room to duck his head out of the way of the powerful attack, and letting his arms be crushed instead until he can weave out of the way. He spins as though to punch Gabriel in the face, but it's a feint -- instead he continues with the motion, his hand ignites, and he fires a wave of mental force flame at the Blue Blade. Let's see if he can do things *besides* posture.
"SACRED WAVE!"

Gabriel decides to go after Johnny now too, but she's not as nice as Alma. When the punch comes she tries to dodge! Possibly would of dodged into it, but since it isn't targeted at her she just rolls needlessly aside then and only then realizing that there was no need to move at all. When she does notice this she reaches off to the side of the area where they are in the park. There are people watching but there are also trees and with trees comes sticks. Kai picks up what would be better described as a log and makes her way over to Johnny. This my friend is going to hurt. The log is about the size of her leg, heavy enough that it takes her two hands to wield and she hefts it up over her head in a way that means business. The only saving grace is she's going to be swinging it slow - with the momentum of a car wreck.

The psi blast catching him on the side mid-posture, the Blue Blade is sent stumbling and dazed as Gabriel lunges for him with her club. "Aha..." he shouts lamely as he attempts to dodge around behind her, but is caught on the shoulder by the tail end of the club-swing as he hooks his arms under hers from behind, lifting her into the air and spinning her around and slamming her into the ground behind them. Groaning loudly as the two hit the ground, the Blue Blade rolls away from the collision, moaning softly.

Oh, man, that's ugly. Alma's expression softens and he looks mildly embarrassed as the psi blast seems to really screw up the Blue Blade's sense of timing. If that wrestler is really going to be able to give his all in this fight, he needs more time. And, being Alma, that's what he really cares about. Sorry, folks, this sometimes happens when you wield the Power of Love.
Rushing forward, Alma does not draw upon the power this time, though. He leaps into the air quite spectacularly, twisting to gather extra momentum and showing off the acrobatic skill that belies his large frame, and attempts to take advantage of Gabriel's prone posture just as soon as the suplex is finished by falling upon her and driving his fist into her solar plexus, the spot right where her ribs part, so as to knock the wind right out of her.

Kai who herself is only just now managing to roll aside, sees a punch coming in and only barely manages to cover away from it. Ouch though, it still gives her something smarting. That hurt big time. She grits her teeth from the pain, the throw, the punch, it was starting to add up.

"Alma-san, forgive me," and with that Gabriel leaps into the air, trying to perch on Alma's shoulders and then with a thrust, attempts to send a blast of purple energy into his face (if she can get on his shoulders) only to kick off of him, which would send her into a backflip to land a bit away. It's all theoretical of course, she could end up jumping - missing and stumbling from the landing.

Still groaning softly, the Blue Blade pulls himself to his feet and shakes his head a few times to knock the cobwebs loose. "Oh, ese dolor..." <Oh, the pain!> the Blue Blade mutters as he stumbles slightly. "No importa, yo no se acaba todavía..." <It doesn't matter, I'm not finished yet...> Thumping his fist against his chest mightily, the Blue Blade then begins to jump up and down, pumping both fists in the air as he works himself into a frenzy. "¡Sea LISTO!" <Be READY!>

Always with the jumping on Alma's shoulders. He's starting to get a little self-conscious -- and fortunately for Gabriel, self-consciousness is the anti-flow. "There's nothing to f-forgive--" The blast hits him the face, and he hits the ground on his back, but he doesn't look particularly badly hurt, and rolls backward. When his face is visible again, he appears to have composed himself. Easily startled, easily recovered. Huh.
"This is a fight. Never regret. The only thing you could possibly apologize for is not giving your very all. That is what I expect from you; what I yearn to see." As he speaks, the light in his eyes continues to grow; what elegant posture! And it's all unconscious, too. The Psycho Power flows into is heart and emanates outward; with the aid of his battle aura, Alma *is* the fight. Joy sings out in the sparkle in his eyes, as he steps forward-- and blurs into near-nonexistence. Then he's in front of Gabriel, and punching at her midriff-- then he's gone, no wait, he's appeared again, and he's punching her in the face this time!
Seven seperate images of Alma, all with fists ignited, blur and lunge forward to punch at Gabriel, leaving trails of flame in their wake which fade quickly but burn brightly. "Fist of Awakening!" the seventh Alma shouts, as he prepares for a rushing, flaming uppercut. "SACRED REKKA REVELATION!"

COMBATSYS: Gabriel fails to reflect Sacred Rekka Revelation from Alma with Mimic.
- Power hit! -

Gabriel has a great deal of love for energy attacks. When this one comes in at her, she considers how she can use it to her advantage. How can she manipulate it..? How can she make it.. her's. . . Her eyes narrow and she lifts her arms, ready to absorb the attack and return the power.. but it's just plain too much. It rolls her completely over, plowing her into the ground and leaving her there in what can be described as a crater. The sound she makes as it hits her, you might expect a scream, but the impact is so great, the most she can manage is an,

"Oh." For the moment she just stares at the sky, looking blank and singed all over. Which an interesting fact, it's all mental, literally.

"Haha! How the tables have turned!" the Blue Blade cackles as Gabriel is laid out. "¡Mire esto!" <Watch this!> the Blue Blade yells as he leaps towards a nearby tree, grabbing a branch and pulling himself up into the tree. Perched on the tree branch like some sort of big blue squirrel, the Blue Blade shakes a pointed finger at the prone girl powerfully. "¡Tema la Ardilla Plancha!" <Fear the Squirrel Dive!> he shouts as he leaps from the branch, grabbing his ankles in mid-flight, an impressive high-risk maneuver, plummeting to crash bodily into the schoolgirl, head first.

What's this! Hitting a lady while she's down! That's-- wait, Alma just tried that a little while ago. So he doesn't really look particularly offended. But even so, considering he just owned Gabriel with his last combo, and he's still standing quite strong, it's time to distribute the pain a bit more. Gathering yet more Psycho Power in his arms -- this guy just never runs out! must be the Power of Love -- and letting his appreciation of the fight glimmer in his eyes, Alma brings his glowing hands together, and then, pulling them apart, forms a blazing orb of power that grows as his hands grow further apart, until it's a bit more than four feet in diameter. It's a pretty hefty fireball. "The Ego Crusher!" he announces, and projects the attack at the Blue Blade, aiming to smack him in midair.
"HEAVENLY ETHER BLAST!"

COMBATSYS: Johnny successfully hits Gabriel with Ardilla Plancha.

Kai Gabriel isn't moving, she's just laying there in a heap, the attack that comes down on her like hell from above is therefore not avoided, not even remotely attempted, she just.. gets nailed. A shadow forms over her of the attacker, she might notice it, but Alma's attack was just so insane that she doesn't even move, not even blink as she is attacked, it's as if she can't move. Too stunned too dazed. It's only after she gets struck that her face twists and her expression turns into one of pain and agony mingled that she becomes aware that someone is hitting her and hitting her hard. The cry is broken by a wet cough before she sinks back into the same posture of stunned pain.
COMBATSYS: Gabriel takes a breather.

Flipping back up to his feet after slamming into to Gabriel face-first, causing the crowd to cheer at his crazy high-flying maneuver, the Blue Blade laughs and pumps his right fist into the air. "¡Ese es como usted lo hace!" <That's how you do it!> he shouts.
"Ego crusher...?" the Blue Blade repeats inquisitively as he turns to regard his forgotten opponent, Alma. "Oh crap!" he shouts as the fireball races towards him. Cartweeling away from the blast, the Blue Blade reaches into his jacket and pulls out a slim black object. "Two can play that game!" the Blue Blade shouts as the object produces a blade with a *shnick!*. "Rocket 88!" the Blue Blade shouts as the blade springs to life, flaming with cobalt blue chi. "Catch!" he shouts as the tosses the flaming blade towards Alma's chest.

Oh, great, people who throw knives. Alma has *never* had luck with this sort of thing. Grimacing as he can't manage to block the attack in time, his timing off by his temporarily decreased aura after his failed attack, and he steps back a little bit. His momentum fouled for now, Alma takes some time to gather himself a bit, and casts a mildly worried glance over to Gabriel. Something about his eyes, though, shows he isn't worried about her physical health, per se; there's a hint of pity in his gaze, for a moment.
~ ...She's giving up, again. ~
Turning back to the Blue Blade, the youth lets his power build, but rather than having it burst into flames, he lets it wreathe him in a gentle aura, restoring his concentration, reminding him of his motivation (or lack thereof) and inspiring himself. He smiles at the Blade, a genuine look that seems to say 'I like your style', but says nothing, yet.

Kai Gabriel meanwhile doesnt move, not an inch, she looks like she might very well be beaten for all it's worth. On the plus side, she doesn't appaer to be registering as a threat just now, but then that didn't stop Johnny last time from attacking her. Now Alma seems to be doing something to himself. Her eyes register the faintest degree of notice to this before closing.

COMBATSYS: Gabriel takes no action.

"Hah! Not so tough now, are you?!" the Blue Blade taunts. Rushing towards Alma in a zig-zagging broken field run, the switchblade luchadore manages to point at the male model threateningly; he's quite talented at that. "Let's rumble! Are you ready? Come on, let's go!" Leaping towards Alma, the Blue Blade swings his leg around at the hip, attempting to deliver a punishing axe-kick to Alma's pretty face.

Oof. There goes his recovery -- well, not exactly. The kick hits Alma in the side of the face, as he twists away a bit so it doesn't break his nose or anything, but he spins with the attack well, and rather than fall back, gets even closer to the Blue Blade. As he moves, his legs both ignite with Psycho fire, and he pushes off the ground and bicycle kicks up with those flaming feet, leaving blade-like trails behind him as he kicks once, flips around, then kicks again, attemping to blast the wrestler up and into the air with the fierce response.
"SHIEN CYCLE!"

Managing now to pick herself up, Gabriel makes a slow move toward Alma, dragging her feet and making it look rather difficult, when she gets closer she speeds her pace nd then jumps into the air, this time mimicing the first attack she ever made on him, attempting to grab him about the head with her knees. If successful she'll slam him into the ground head first, rather unpleasantly. Only then to roll away and swagger a bit weakly.

Rolling to the side as Alma's feet fly towards him, the Blue Blade laughs as the attack misses him completely. "Oh ho ho!" Drawing another switchblade from his jacket, (How many of those things does he have?!) it springs to blue life once more. "Here you go pretty boy! Here's another present!" he shouts as he throws the blazing blade at Alma once more from his crouch.

Oh, no no. Nice as Gabriel's legs may be, Alma has no desire to get caught in that sort of attack again, and he weaves out of the way, ducking under her attack, only to see that damned blade coming at him again. Well, screw that. Alma needs his momentum now more than anything. So, rushing at the attack, his battle aura surges around him, and he lets the attack hit him and bounce away with a crackle of meeting energies before gathering his Psycho Power into each hand. "The power of without as yin! The power of within as yang! Two ideals, synthesized as one; an atomic blast from a split duality!" As he speaks, inspiring himself, the power continues to gather in his hands, and he closes in on Johnny; but then, before he actually reaches the man, he brings his hands together, and the two orbs of power combine, suddenly growing into what's more of a fire *wall* than a fire ball. Projecting forward, he sends this huge pile of Psycho Power right in Johnny's path. Maybe he'll be able to blow the guy right out of the ring -- if he doesn't miss again.

Kai Gabriel finds herself staggering after the last attack, but she quickly spins around to find Alma attacking Johnny like she means to kill him. She charges Alma from behind,
"Alma-san, forgive me, but this might hurt.."

If she can grab him, which is what she will try to do, she will twist his arm behind his back and charge a blast of energy into the small of his back, holding him for a moment before letting go, letting the blast send him flying.

"GAH!" the Blue Blade shouts as the attack hits him full on, knocking him away to roll into a nearby tree with a thud. Groaning softly as he stirs, Johnny manages to pull himself to a sitting position with his back to the sturdy tree. "That... was a lucky hit..." Johnny mutters as he attempts to catch his breath.

Alma's just too pumped. Even after his highest-powered technique, his aura sense is still blazing, and when Gabriel attempts to grab him, he counter-grabs her arm, and lets the chi energy of her attack wash over him, his aura again absorbing most of the damage. Holding her close to him for that quick moment after the block, his face only a few inches from hers, Alma's hazel eyes gaze into Gabriel's, gently, but firmly. "I told you," he says, quietly but a bit huskily from the strain of the fight, "stop apologizing. Just do it."
Then he's quickly pushed away, and using what momentum he has, he spins again and, gathering yet more flame, sends another quick blast Johnny's way, perhaps in an attempt to finish him off before he does anything really serious. "SACRED WAVE!"

"Alma-san, I am sorry because I am being bad.. I mean.. About the Congress, but this fight, I have no regrets, so here I come!" Kai gieuthusiastic smile. Could it be she is getting gradually stronger..? Like somehow she is recovering or did her mood just improve? At any rate she breaks into an attack, shouting simply
"AAaaaayyiii!" and spinning in the air with her arms outstretched toward Alma. If Hotaru is watching.. she'll totally sue.

"Nice try puto!" the Blue Blade laughs as he springs from his sitting position by the tree, rolling on his shoulder to carry himself away from the blast. That's more that can be said for the poor tree, who's trunk explodes into splinters as the psi wave hits it. "You're in for it now!" he yells as he rushes towards Alma, slowing only slightly to scoop up Gabriel's discarded tree branch club. Producing another switchblade from his jacket, the Blue Blade cackles insanely as both the blade and the club erupt with blue fire. Flying at Alma like a human blender, the Blue Blade swings the flaming weapons wildly, the lack of technique in his erratic attack more than made up for by its brutality.

As the two attacks come at him from each direction, giving our hero absolutely nowhere to dodge, Alma only has time to think one coherent thought before putting his arms up in a vague attempt at blocking two attacks at once.

PowpowpowpowpowpowYOU LOSE.
Well, looks like Alma Towazu got the bad end of this deal. Not to mention that pro-wrestler keeps pulling out foreign objects. Ergh, that guy's a jerk. Maybe Alma's playing favorites now, but the Blue Blade is the first one he sees as his vision begins to haze up, and with his final burst of Psycho Power, he blasts forward with a blur of energy and attacks with a raw series of blazingly fast, Psycho-enhanced punches. "Would people... please... stop... hitting me... with knives!?"

Kai Gabriel takes a step back at this point, watching Alma make his attack at Johnny and not lifting a finger. She looks sad at Alma, but she does not attack Johnny, not yet, she will wait for a proper oppertunity, giving him the honor he was sure to never give to her. But she was going to show... She could be better than that! Standing there quitely, Kai moves aside and watches silently, waiting, ready.

Backflipping away from the psi-blast, the squirrelly Blue Blade laughs once more, "Oh ho ho! Goodnight pretty boy!" Letting the club fall to the ground, its chi flames dying out once it hits the dirt, the Blue Blade studies the flaming switchblade briefly, a far away, almost loving look in his eyes. "Hey little girl, this is for you! ROCKET 88!" he shouts as he lets the knife zing towards Gabriel with a powerful overhand throw.

COMBATSYS: Johnny successfully hits Gabriel with Rocket 88.

Tch. Missed.
Well, one must practice very hard. Maybe next time.
With a little sigh, Alma folds up onto his knees, and shaking his head tiredly, a weakly sheepish smile on his face, he gently lays himself to rest, unable to really hear the indignant calls of his middle-school fanclub.

Ca-chink. Kai Gabriel takes the blow , the knife, it cuts her along the shoulder. She tries to charge through it but ends up getting nailed in t he process. Not as per her plans, but as she staggers back it seems her expression is not one of giving up. She continues onward, draws back a hand and aims a palm strike to end all palm strikes at the Blue whatever's face, a snap of energy bursting around her hand as she does.

COMBATSYS: Gabriel successfully hits Johnny with Serpent Snap.

"Gah!" the Blue Blade shouts as the slap catches him on the face. "Puta!" he yells as he stumbles back, his fatigue catching up with him. "Gah, I'm still not finished yet! Come on, let's go!" the Blue Blade shouts as he leaps towards Gabriel, swinging his leg once more to try and deliver another axe kick, this time towards the girl's head.

COMBATSYS: Johnny can no longer fight.

Kai recognizes the attack, raises her arms and just barely manages to block it. It still impacts her quite hard, but staggering, she is somehow still on her feet.

"Goddess.. Forgive the Saturday Night Fight.. for it is evil.. A .. creation of greed. I hereby turn down any money for this match and insist that it is all donated to feed the starving children of southtown!" (there probably are no starving children of southtown) " And whatever is left can be donated to feed the starving people of the world!" (It probably won't stretch very far. And then Kai starts to leave, then someone asks if she is okay and she promptly collapses.
"Err... I'm fine.. but please ensure that Alma-san is too."

COMBATSYS: Gabriel has ended the fight here.


Well, Alma looks pretty much okay, for someone who got double-teamed. He's carried off on a stretcher to a tent where he can recover, and his visage looks quite peaceful. There's a little smile on his face, a sweet, boyish-looking. He must be having a nice dream.
"Mmn. Can't... eat... any more... ice cream..."
"The inner!" declares the ref. "Kai Gabriel!"
The crowd applauds. Really, they do. This was a close fight, with lots of explosions, and improvised weapons. And that'salways good.

The Blue Blade collapses in the dust, where he lays unmoving.
