Neo League 076 - #85: Tran vs Mimiru

Description: Tran rematches the spiritual leader of Team Awesome! (Winner: Tran)



Compared to some of the fights with bigger, all-around better fighters, these little things aren't very well covered. Formal though the challenge may be, Dr. Tran only has one camera to show off in front of today. And he doesn't really feel like showing off for it very much, but he'll just have to make do today. He's got to bring the magic, baby!
For now, however, he'll just be lounging at the bottom of the steps, so that there's no danger of being thrown down them. Dr. Tran does not like falling down stairs.

The challenger is here! The fearsome Mimiru! Not quite that fearsome, but seeing how she had the opportunity to fight Tran again, she took it. To beat him up? More to give him a chance to try and beat her up. Mimiru's pretty confident in herself. After all, so far, Tran has only been able to beat her once. And now... Tran needs to fight for his title of Dr. Awesome!

Because there's not enough room for two Awesomes in South Town. Mimiru is already there for the camera and the few persons that around around the shrine. The girl bounces about a little and she sticks her tongue out a bit, "Man... Where's the doc?" She asks. While Mimiru doesn't know where he is, Max, her faithful canine, knows where he is. He can see him! In fact, he barks a few times in the direction of the shrine's stairs, trying to draw Mimiru's attention there.

Barking!? Here? That can only mean one thing. Turning to look at Max, Tran squints for a minute, recognizing that mutt, and then comes to his feet, trying to look dramatic despite his already sinking confidence. Sure, he beat Mimiru the first time they fought, but that was really a fluke more than anything else - he well remembers how things went there.
Striding toward Mimiru, prepared for violence, Dr. Tran is ready. There's nothing he can do but press on, striving to regain his lost dignity! And all he has to do is beat up a 14-year old girl. ...come to think of it, his dignity may be well and truly screwed either way.

With Max's barks, Mimiru finally spins around on her heels and her lips curl into a smile as she finally sees Tran. The girl strikes a pose and she says, "Ahahah! So here you are!" Mimiru says, folding her arms in front of her chest. Mimiru grins and she leans over a little, "So, confident about ourself, doc? Think you'll be able to win this one out?" Mimiru asks.

"'cause I got this cool t-shirt I made here, about team awesome!" Mimiru says. She grins and then says, "If I win, you should wear it up! It says on it, 'I am a super fan of the awesome team! You rock gals!' and there's a rainbow over it and stuff, How about it, eh?"

Oh shit! Tran is momentarily stunned! This...this is truly horrible!

They have /t-shirts/!

There's no way Dr. Tran can compete with custom-made t-shirts. But...just because there's no hope, is no reason to give up! Tran /has/ to defeat Mimiru here, or else why should he even bother going on with his life, his quest for greatness/snacks/whatever!? This needs to be done!
Folding his arms, and doing his best to put up an imposing front, Tran crossly states, "I'll do no such thing. In fact, if I win...I'll make a t-shirt that says 'I am an adoring, slavering fan of the truly invincible Dr. Tran!' It even rhymes!" Ramming a finger forward at Mimiru's face, he adds, "Beat that, little girl!"

Mimiru blinks a few times as Tran trusts a finger over her face. Mimiru sticks her tongue out and she folds her arms in front of her chest, spinning on her heels a little, as if pouting for a moment, "Bah! I'll beat that, listen..." She says.

Mimiru lifts a finger up in the air and she says, "We got our own animal mascot. It's a cool little ferret named Ikoutsou and it cheers on us when we fight." Mimiru says with a few nods.

In response to this, Dr. Tran sinks low, morally speaking. He hauls back and just tries to punch Mimiru, a teenage girl, right in the face. "Ferrets suck."

While Mimiru isn't paying attention and Tran attacks Mimiru, Max barks and it actually tries to interfer before Tran actually punches Mimiru. Alas, the dog doesn't manage to attack in time and Mimiru actually gets it right in the face. That's a rather huge surprise. Mimiru grunts and she staggers back a couple of steps, falling on her butt.

She growls a little and she shakes her head, "That's not true! Ferrets don't suck!"

Dancing around to the other side of Mimiru, making sure she stays in between him and Max, Tran quickly answers. "Ferrets are one of the suckiest animals known to man. It's a scientific fact."
There a bit of malice in his voice, because even as he says it, he's working with chi, forming steam into a sort of dense, dull, smokey-gray paddle, which he swings right at the back of Mimiru's head. "Violence makes it truuuuuuue!"

COMBATSYS: Tran successfully hits Mimiru with Operation - Dr. Tran.

Mimiru           0/-------/---====|=------\-------\0             Tran


Getting back to her feet slowly but surely, Mimiru rubs her butt a little. She grunts and mutters a few things under her breath, "That's not true, you're just jealous 'cause you don't have your own mascot..." Then Mimiru gets cut in her sentence as Tran gives her a chi smack right behind her head. Mimiru staggers a little and she growls, shaking her head a little.

A little bit dazed, she glances over her shoulder at Tran and glares at him, "Oh yeah!? Well I'll make you pay for saying Ikoutsou sucks, because that's not true! Take that! Eat those words back!" Mimiru shouts as she attempts to punch Tran hard in the face.

The steam paddle dissipates, turning into boundless vapor once again, and Tran takes a step back. "Jealous of a tube rat? Hah!" Raising one arm, Dr. Tran takes the blow directly in his open palm fairly easily, though not without a certain amount of jarring pain. He's feeling a bit more confidant, now, at least. "I'm too awesome to even need a mascot! I'm a doctor!"
Shoving Mimiru's fist upward to create an opening, Tran lifts his foot upward and then drives it straight toward Mimiru's chest, trying to push her away.

COMBATSYS: Tran successfully hits Mimiru with Light Kick.
-* CRITICAL HIT! *-

Mimiru           0/-------/=======|==-----\-------\0             Tran


Mimiru blinks a few times and she growls a bit at Tran, "Yeah! You sure are!" She shouts, sticking her tongue out a little at Tran. The little girl tries to give him another punch but before she can, Tran gives her a powerful kick right in her opening. Mimiru's eyes widen and she loses her breath a little, coughing a few times and getting pushed away rather violently, losing her balance before she stumbles about and falls to the ground.

Mimiru growls a bit and she bites her lips, trying to get back to her feet. Thankfully, Max is here! The dog growls and leaps on Tran to attempt to tackle him and give him a hard time to allow Mimiru to recover.

COMBATSYS: Tran blocks Mimiru's Max Rush.

Mimiru           0/-------/-======|===----\-------\0             Tran


Is that supposed to be an insult? Tran's not sure, but he's got other things to deal with, right now. Like a big dog getting all up in his face. However, he's had experience with Max before, and Dr. Tran knows how to deal. In this case, it's by taking a step back, keeping Max from completely tackling him, and wrestling with the dog for a moment. "Ngg...Don't think I've forgotten about you, Mimiru!"
Still trying to subdue Max, Tran turns his gaze toward Mimiru, and begins the difficult task of manipulating chi while dog-wrasslin'.

Steam forms around his eyes, and then two small jets of the stuff rocket forward toward Mimiru, like small scalding laser beams.

COMBATSYS: Mimiru dodges Tran's 3 2 1... Dr. Tran.

Mimiru           0/-------/-======|===----\-------\0             Tran


"It's okay, Max! I'm fine, I'll handle him." Mimiru says, sticking her tongue out a little as she dismisses the dog. Thankfully, the canine growls and snarls at Tran but he does as Mimiru ordered him and he steps away. Unfortunately for Tran, Mimiru has learned a good lesson from what has been happening lately -- it seems that whenever she tries to defend herself Tran seems to get around her defense and hurt her so bad. As of sort, Mimiru decides to use the best protip ever: Dodge Tran's attack to avoid damage.

And so, Mimiru swiftly avoids the blast of chi that comes from Tran by rushing quickly into his direction. The girl shouts and she lunges at Tran, swirling around and attempting to give him a powerful kick to his side, "I'll teach you a lesson! You have no right to insult our mascot, it's the most awesome!"

COMBATSYS: Tran dodges Mimiru's Light Kick.

Mimiru           0/-------/-======|===----\-------\0             Tran


Whew. The dog's retreating, and Dr. Tran's a little relieved. Wrestling dogs is gross, they get all slobbery and yuck. However, it seems his reminder that he was going to take care of Mimiru...well, it's pretty ineffective, not effective at all one might say. A total flop.
Well, two can play at that game. If Mimiru wants to change things from a straight-up brawl, then Tran has no choice but to follow suit, taking a step backward so that Mimiru's foot goes brushing harmlessly past him. "I'll insult what I want to! You don't know the first thing about awesomeness! And you don't even know you don't know, you ignorant wench!" To follow this greivous insult up, Tran just hauls back and tries to punch Mimiru in the face. Again.

COMBATSYS: Tran successfully hits Mimiru with Quick Punch.

Mimiru           1/-------/=======|====---\-------\0             Tran


She hits... Nothing!? How can this be! Mimiru blinks a few times and she staggers about a little, having lost her balance more or less after that kick. She grunts a little and shakes her head, attempting to regain her balance more or less. "What...!" Mimiru exclaims, only to get punched right in the face again.

The girl takes a few steps back to regain her balance and she lifts one hand up to her face. She growls a little and glares up at Tran. Definately, she isn't really all that awesome in this fight so far, "Well I know how to know I'm more awesome than you are!" Mimiru says as she dashes over Tran and attempts to get a hold of him. She then attempts to make him trip by sweeping him off his legs.

COMBATSYS: Tran fails to interrupt O Soto Gari from Mimiru with Strong Punch.

Mimiru           1/------=/=======|======-\-------\0             Tran


Well, to be perfectly honest, Tran is feeling cocky right now. He figures he has some room to, as they say, 'go for it'. When Mimiru grabs him, Tran winds back to really clock her good, before she can suplex him or something - but then she just trips him. How lame. Still, he hits the ground fairly hard, getting the breath driven out of him.
Laying there for a moment, he grins, and laughs. "Is that the best you've got? I'm going to show you the true meaning of awesome!" Despite these brave words, however, Tran's being careful as he comes to his feet somewhat awkwardly, as he's watching out for an attack from Mimiru.

Heaving a soft sigh, after Tran finally trips and falls to the ground, Mimiru takes a few steps back and she actually gets her breath back. She growls and bites her lips, glancing down at Tran for sometime, allowing him the time to recover and get back on his feet. She frowns and says, "Come on... Now you've made this personal, no little quarrels in this, you're right out bashing out our mascot and I won't take it." Mimiru says, sticking her tongue out a bit.

"Come on, get back on your feet, I'll show you what is awesome!" Mimiru says with a snort.

COMBATSYS: Mimiru takes a breather.

Mimiru           1/------=/=======|======-\-------\0             Tran


With another quick laugh, Tran just shakes his head at Mimiru as he finishes getting up to his feet. "Please. You may have beaten me before, but I'm going to take you out! If your little ferret mascot was here, I'd take it out, too!" Crossing his arms in front of himself, Dr. Tran sweeps them down to the side, sending two chi boomerangs arcing forward to either side of Mimiru. "And if you're just now thinking it's personal, you're a fool!"

COMBATSYS: Mimiru blocks Tran's Real American Hero Cutter.

"Now that's just plain mean and totally uncool. How can you say you're awesome with such an attitude?" Mimiru asks, sticking her tongue out a bit at Tran. The girl doesn't move when Tran actually fires off his steam-chi boomerangs at her. In fact she merely awaits them and she lifts her arms up to block the incoming attacks.

"I'm no fool! I swear, I'll make you eat those words back, our mascot is super cool! At least cooler than you are!" Mimiru shouts with a grunt as she dashes over Tran and attempts to punch him in the face.

COMBATSYS: Tran blocks Mimiru's Quick Punch.

Mimiru           1/----===/=======|=======\-------\0             Tran


Whipping his shades out of his coat, Tran puts them on, all the better to appear cold, cruel, and utterly merciless. Having the right image for the task at hand can be important, and it falls upon Tran to simply end Mimiru. Crush her, totally! It's a heartless act, so Dr. Tran needs to be sure not to have a heart.
"Deny it all you want, but you've left me with no choice in the matter! Mimiru Kasagi, I'm going to defeat you!" Lifting a hand to block Mimiru's hand in a similar manner to before, Tran changes things up a bit from there. While he does push upward at the arm to throw Mimiru off-balance, he's also taking a step back and reaching into his coat for the case his sunglasses were in - then he chucks it sidearm right at Mimiru's forehead.

COMBATSYS: Tran successfully hits Mimiru with Thrown Object.

Mimiru           1/---====/=======|=======\-------\0             Tran


The shade of extra coolness +5. Mimiru is definately no match against those right now. Mimiru grunts a bit and she shakes her head, "Never! I won't admit it!" And then before she even knows it, Tran throws the case of his sunglasses right at her face.

Mimiru growls and she staggers back a little, her head spinning around a bit. She shakes her head and growls, glaring up at Tran and trying to get back into it, "I'm not going to be defeated, never!" Mimiru shouts.

COMBATSYS: Mimiru focuses on her next action.

[                  \\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  /////////////////////         ]
Mimiru           1/---====/=======|=======\-------\0             Tran


"Never is a long time!" Folding his arms and standing his ground, Tran continues to look as cold and badass as a short indian man can be. Pointing a finger at Mimiru again, he states calmly, "Give up now, because I'm not giving you any mercy. You've got no chance. None!" To prove it, he lifts his shades ever so slightly, and once again two tiny jets of steam come rushing toward Mimiru.

COMBATSYS: Tran successfully hits Mimiru with 3 2 1... Dr. Tran.

[                     \\\\\\\\\  < >  ///////////////////           ]
Mimiru           1/--=====/=======|=======\-------\1             Tran


Unlike last time, Mimiru doesn't quite get the same chance as last time. The jet of steam that comes from his eyes actually burn Mimiru this time and the girl growls. She shakes her head and flails her arms a little, trying to actually shake off the actual feeling of the steam on her face.

Mimiru gives Tran a glare and she shakes her head, muttering a few things under her breath, "We'll see that..." She mutters to herself as she attempts to get a hold of Tran and gives him a powerful suplex by hurling him off over her and slamming him down to the ground.

COMBATSYS: Tran interrupts German Suplex from Mimiru with Quick Punch.

[                        \\\\\\  < >  ///////////////               ]
Mimiru           0/-------/-======|=======\===----\1             Tran


For once, the doctor is silent, simply waiting for Mimiru to come at him. She's coming too fast for anything to be safe, really, and so he just lets her bring him up...but then, instead of letting her slam him down full-force, he drives his elbow right into her head. He still gets slammed, but it's not as bad as it could have been. He's still fine, but more importantly, he's pretty sure that was all he needed to bring Mimiru down. Getting to his feet, he takes a couple of steps away from her, and then adjusts his shades. He's still not saying anything - just waiting to see what she'll do now.

It's like a double KO. Except that Tran stands up in the end. Because when she suplexes Tran and gets hit with that elbow shot, Mimiru totally got knocked out of it. Is that a ruse? Well not really, she's really knocked out cold. Looks like Tran got back his dignity!

COMBATSYS: Mimiru takes no action.

Tran             1/----===/=======|


COMBATSYS: Mimiru can no longer fight.

Tran             1/----===/=======|


Well. That's taken care of, Mimiru's knocked out, and Tran has the win. Turning away, Tran takes a step, pauses, and then looks back, lifting his shades to look at her for a minute. Once he's sure she's really out, he states quietly, "I'm sorry I had to do that, Mimiru." Then he lets his shades slip back over his face, and takes off. He's feeling kind of bad about that fight, but it had to be done.
