Match of the Millennium

Description: Mimiru in the Garden of Good and Evil. (Winner: Frei)

Been a while since Mimiru had the chance to participate into the leaguefights. Now Mimiru is back into the business! More or less. Her score is down to zero and she has to raise it up somehow, someway! Not only that, but it'll give her good combat experience. She definately needs it considering how things have been going on recently. As if she has lost her secret magical touch.

Her fight happens right in the middle of South America! Talk about the middle of nowhere... They don't even fight in a city, they do it right on a moutain flank, close from the rain forest and all of the wilderness. The sight is quite something, especially if you enjoy outdoor activities! Mimiru likes it. She enjoyed the hiking that brought her all this way up, it seems like a little of a trouble for a fight, but guess the Neo League wants to show the everyone fighters fighting around the world. Minus Rossel Crow, of course. "Wow... Now those trees definately beat the ones we have in Japan..."

What kind of moron stages a fight at the top of a mountain, HUH?!
At least that's probably what the camera crews and such are saying. Frei, for his part, finds the hike invigorating, or at least something other than exhausting. Of course, he also used to live in the Himalayas which, by comparison, are rather more difficult climbs. Thus this trek up a relatively shorter hill, as it were, is just kind of a nice afternoon walk.
The monk rounds the top on the opposite side of the ledge from Mimiru and turns to look out over the expanse of the dense forest below, shading his eyes with his hand and taking in a deep breath. "Wow..." he breathes, a little overcome by the view. If he noticed that Mimiru is here for the fight, he doesn't show any signs of it.

"It's quite a view, no?" Mimiru says to Frei, folding her arms in front of her chest as she takes up a couple of seconds to look down at the lushful forest. Mimiru bites her lips and she shakes her head, returning her attention to Frei, "Seems like a lot of trouble to me to come all this way here to fight each other! Especially when we could have done it in my lawn," Mimiru says, sticking her tongue out a bit.

The girl hops about and she bounces, getting into her corner and idly stretching, "Well when you'll be ready give me a sign, so I can start kicking your butt, heheh," Mimiru says. Her tone isn't an arrogant one, more like a teasing one. She just stretches and prepares while Frei enjoys the sight.

Mmm. Trees.
Frei isn't 100% surprised -- after all, he came up here to fight someone so he knew SOMEBODY would be here -- but he does blink as he turns around. However, he does get a good laugh out of it. Mimiru's right, after all; they both live in Southtown, so what's the point of getting dragged out here? "I can't argue with a free trip to Colombia, can you?" He runs a hand through his hair. "Besides, it's more exciting for the people this way."
Speaking of, the monk gets his fill of the view down in the valley, and then nods to himself in satisfaction before walking back onto the ledge proper and getting into stance, watching Mimiru. Last time these two fought it didn't go so well, but Frei's changed a little since then. "Maybe we'll have a better match than last time," he says, almost sheepishly. "Show me whatcha got!"

"Yeah, well, maybe for you, but I had a monkey with long arms cling to the back of my head and slap me repeatedly and that's not funny," Mimiru says, sticking her tongue out at the thought, "I thought little monkeys were funny, but that one bit me. I hate monkeys now... I always wanted a monkey but now I hate monkeys! Filthy little creature, bah! Things will never be the same now..." Mimiru says, lowering her gaze and letting out a reminiscent sigh escape her throat.

"But anyway! I might have gotten owned by a monkey with long arms, but today, I can garantee you, I'll give you my best and beat you up!" Mimiru says, lips curling into a wide grin as she gets into her stance, muhc like Frei, "Alright, I'm coming!" She shouts.

And with that, Mimiru dashes straight toward Frei, her hand clenching into a fist and chi bursting out of it, "Super Mimiru Punch!" She shouts as she swings her fist straight for Frei's midsection.

[OOC] Mimiru Kasagi eyes the metter, "Looks like there's a fight going on here." :D

[OOC] Frei says, "...HA."

[OOC] Frei fistshakes. Curse you, South America (SOUTH AMERICA SOUTH AMERICA)

[OOC] Mimiru Kasagi says, "Hum..."

[OOC] Mimiru Kasagi says, "What to do?"

[OOC] Frei says, "Warhawk said to hold on, so he's probably handling it."

Whump! Mimiru's punch lands right in Frei's tummy. But... perhaps to Mimiru's consternation, it doesn't move him very far; the monk had set his feet to receive her headlong charge. Pushed back through the dirt a couple inches, Frei nevertheless refuses to budge. "I've never liked monkeys, myself," he says amicably, looking to duck a little low as long as he has Mimiru in reach, snag her by her waist, and then do a tiny little half-spin and chuck her back the way she came from in a horizontal throw. "They give me nightmares."


[  \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  ///////////////////////////   ]
Frei             0/-------/------=|=------\-------\0           Mimiru

Mimiru doesn't struggle against Frei's grasp. She prepares to roll with it instead and she flows with it, softening her landing by rolling with it and managing to make it less painful. The girl rolls about on the ground and she gets back to her knees. Mimiru winces a little and she glances up to Frei. Her lips curl into a smile and she says, "I didn't know monkeys gave nightmares..." She admits, "I thought they were like bunnies. Everyone loves bunnies! Only persons who cannot like them are surely evil!" Mimiru admits.

The girl rises up rather quickly and she rushes over Frei, "Anyway, enough talks! Kyaaa!" She shouts as she tries to give Frei a quick kick to his right side.


[   \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  ////////////////////////////  ]
Frei             0/-------/-----==|=------\-------\0           Mimiru

The monk appears to give that some thought as he watches Mimiru come in for her attack. As the kick snaps up to his side, he turns just so and throws his forearm in front of it, deflecting the blow for the most part and blunting some of Mimiru's momentum. "I dunno that any animal is inherently good or evil," Frei muses thoughtfully, stepping back from the young girl and flexing his fingers, trying to decide how to follow up. "Though the probability your given bunny is less evil than another mammal is fairly good."
Without wasting any time after that weird remark, Frei rushes in with surprising speed, hoping to take Mimiru unawares. If he can get inside her guard, he plants one foot on her thigh and, with some impressive aerials, uses Mimiru's body as a stepping stone twice, vaulting off her shoulders and doing a twist in midair, his back turned to her, his hands glowing a faint violet color... and as he hits the ground, a shimmering bolt of purple-blue lightning drops out of the sky, hopefully striking Mimiru while she's dazed from the kick-off. "Now, hamsters... those are evil."


[    \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  ////////////////////////////  ]
Frei             0/-------/------=|=------\-------\0           Mimiru

Alas, Frei isn't that lucky! A part of her old fighting style is all about avoiding harm and not getting hurt! Mimiru quickly staggers back, not allowing Frei to actually get close enough to her and plant his foot on her thigh, "Ahah! Not so fast!" Mimiru says, sticking her tongue out a little.
Her lips curl into a wide grin and she says, "Hamsters are not evil!" Mimiru grins and she attempts to counter by giving a quick jab right for Frei's abdomen, something to force him to back away, "When you poke them they make funny noises, they're fun!"


[      \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  ////////////////////////////  ]
Frei             0/-------/-----==|=------\-------\0           Mimiru

Mimiru's punch goes off with a hitch! Unfortunately, if she wants to slow Frei down she's going to have to work a little harder; the monk simply rolls with the force of the punch and throws both palms out, an orange-red sphere of chi gathering there and then exploding into a hail of golden sparks looking to put some Yin-Yang beatdown on Mimiru's defenses. Provided she doesn't get out of the way, anyway. "When I was a kid our class hamster ate her little baby hamsters. I mean, I know it's just the cycle of life and all but I was scarred for life. The things are terrifying."


[       \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  //////////////////////////    ]
Frei             0/-------/----===|===----\-------\0           Mimiru

Mimiru lifts her arms up to cover both her face and her eyes from the burst of sparks that comes from the chi Frei gathered in his hands. She takes a step back and winces a bit in pain, grunting a little as she has to stagger some to lessen the pain, "Huh... Yeah, I guess that doesn't seem all that good..." She says, toward the whole hamster thing, "Bah! Still..." Mimiru says, bitting her lips. "Animals can't be evil, right?" She asks, arching a brow. Mimiru then dashes on Frei and she leaps on him, attempting to body-slam tackle him down.


[    \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  //////////////////////////    ]
Frei             0/-------/----===|===----\-------\0           Mimiru

In an amazing and somewhat incongruous display of defensive ability, Frei espies Mimiru's incoming and lets a cool silvery glow surround his right hand, which he suddenly throws up in the path of Mimiru's shoulder, pressing in at just such an angle that he has purchase on her frame to direct her path just away from him... not far, but enough so that the monk remains unharmed, his chi-covered hand giving him a tiny buffer. As Mimiru passes on by, he turns around and breathes out, pushing his hands out tai chi style. Gathering blue-white chi in both hands, he hurls them forward, Athena Asamiya-style, sending two spheres of ice at Mimiru that suddenly spring together into a bigger sphere and detonate into a burst of ice crystals looking to pelt her but good. At least it's cool, considering the jungle heat! "I guess that depends on what your definition of evil is."


[      \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  ///////////////////           ]
Frei             0/-------/--=====|=======\-------\0           Mimiru

Considering the heat, that's pretty cold! At least cold enough to stun Mimiru for a second. The girl lets out a scream escape her throat as the spheres of burst near her. Mimiru winces as she gets it by the shrapnel and she takes a few steps back, closing her eyes as to not get anything into her eyes. She pants softly and she rolls an arm around her abdomen. That didn't feel any good that's for sure. She lowers her gaze and then tries to shake off the cold, brushing her arms and shirt, trying to get the crystals off from her. She mutters a couple of things under her breath before she gives herself a few slaps on her cheeks and gets back into her stance.


[      \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  ///////////////////           ]
Frei             0/-------/--=====|=======\-------\0           Mimiru

Whoa. Even Frei looks a little surprised at how well that worked. But rather than press the attack, he decides to hang back and try to focus himself again, drawing on inner reserves and being calm. After all, there's enough raging Yang in Mimiru as-is; he can afford to be a cooler, more fluid Yin than his normal manic Robin Williams impression for a while. And Mimiru didn't say anything, so he throws out his question again. "What do you think evil is, Super Mimiru?" There's no mocking in his tone; it's a serious question. "I mean, since you're pledged to fight it and all."


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

Mimiru blinks a few times and she shakes her head, "Oh, oh... Huh, well..." This is going to be tough! After all, after her trial with Kanji she figured out she'd have to hide her identity but then, it's a little late to actually do it, isn't it? At least with a lot of persons know who she is and all. Mimiru shakes her head a bit at Frei's words and she says, "True evil is the Orochi!" Mimiru answers with firm conviction, "Nothing else, of course, is pure evil!"

And with that, Mimiru rushes over toward Frei and she attempts to get a hold of his clothes. If she suceeds, she'll throw herself backward a plant a foot against his chest so that once she rolls on her back she can shove him up over her head.


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

Deciding to take a lesson from Mimiru's playbook, Frei doesn't bother to try and fight the actual grab; he's already kinda stretchy from doing hand pushes, so he just goes limp and lets her get on with her attack. However, once he's actually in the air the monk rights himself and lands lightly on his feet rather than heavily on his back, lessening the impact. "Well, alright. I can accept that. But what is it about the Orochi that makes it evil? I mean, does it eat babies? Did it vote for Bo Bice in the last American Idol?" Taking a step forward, the monk flips through the air, coming down on Mimiru's shoulders with an attempted reverse axe kick from above, a crescent of fire erupting around his leg. "Man, I hated that guy."


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

Mimiru's gaze goes up and she tries to follow both the conversation and the fight at the same time but it seems that she fails miserably at at least one of the two. She tries to avoid the incoming kick but instead, she simply gets slammed by the flaming kick and she crumbles down to the ground. Mimiru growls a bit and she bites her lips, clenching her hands a little as she forces herself on all four, "Because... The Orochi wants to destroy the world as we know it, that's why he's evil, he's a being of hate." Mimiru says.

And with that, Mimiru rises up quickly, chi flaring out of her legs as she spins around and tries to give back to Frei just what he did and kick him right into his side with her flaming kick.


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

Ah, it seemed like such a good plan. Shoulder ram into yin chi-enhanced physical combo! Mimiru is left exhausted, Frei is probably left bruised. What actually happens is that as he's sailing through the air with a grin on his face to cut Mimiru's kick short it hooks around and gets him right in the BACK, sending him into the dirt with a really unpleasant-sounding crunch. The monk just... lies there, contemplating, before he suddenly handsprings to his feet and spins to face Mimiru, brushing a hand across his mouth to get rid of the soil. "So, destroying makes you evil? Or does it specifically have to be all of existence?"

"Wanting to destroy all existence is being pure evil! All of the Guardians of the Orochi have a part of evil in them! But humans are not born either good or evil, there's always a parcel of good and evil inside of you! It's what you do on a daily basis that determines if you are good or evil!" Mimiru claims with a few nods of her head, "That is why we must fight evil where it is born and allow people to redem and go on the path of righteousness! That is why I fight the guardians of the Orochi and try to rid them of the evil that plagues that heart and show them the right way!" Mimiru states.
Alas, poor Frei, if Mimiru manages to get her hands on him he'll be spending more time on the ground. The girl rushes over to him and she attempts to wrap her arms around his waist from behind. If she suceeds, she'll try to hurl him off over her head and suplex him.


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

Huh. That's an interestingly mature outlook. And oh hey, there's the ground! Frei is actually still thinking what Mimiru has said over when she basically flips him over and drives him right into the dirt... but amazingly, Frei snaps out his hands at the last second, doing a handstand and not immediately falling over on his side. Pushing off the ground, he hops up and attempts to drive his knees into Mimiru's back and drag her down to the ground face-first, then jump off and give himself time to regroup. "But what if you're the only person who thinks what's going on is evil?" It's an interesting discussion, at least for Frei, who appears to be taking Mimiru's responses very seriously... though one might wonder why.


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

Now don't ask too much of a little fourteen year's old girl. As far as she's concerned, the conception of good and evil are immaculate things, ideas that cannot be expressed but everyone knows. Like for example, dog. There are various dogs after all, but saying dog takes all of them together. Whatever happens, Mimiru isn't too sure but she finds herself face first into the dirt rather quickly enough. Mimiru growls a little bit and she shakes her head. She tries to recover and she pants softly as she gets to her knees.

She glances up to Frei and she frowns a little, "Huh, well! Evil is evil!" She simply says. That's good enough for her. And Mimiru closes her eyes and she moves her hands together, summoning up a ball of chi between her palms before she hurls it off toward Frei, "Kyaa!"


[             \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  /////////                     ]
Frei             0/-------/-------|=======\-------\0           Mimiru

Ah, but Mimiru's not a normal 14-year-old. And Frei... well, he's always been a proponent of challenging people of any age to think about their moral choices. However, he's also in a fight, so it's a good thing he can talk and chew gum at the same time. Holding his hands out in front of him, Frei gathers a smallish sphere of orange-red energy between his palms. "I respectfully disagree," he says with a smile. "Sometimes evil is good, and good is evil. Sometimes it's a little of both. Knowing when to be good and when to be evil is an important skill, I think."
As Mimiru's attack comes in, Frei holds the sphere of his own up in his palm and then blows on it lightly. The golden ball of chi starts floating through the air at Mimiru, wobbling to and fro erratically, on one swing connecting with the Super Mimiru Ball and knocking it off course into the distance before continuing on toward the young girl and then exploding in a huge burst of orange/red/gold chi fireworks.


[             \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  /////////                     ]
Frei             0/-------/-------|=======\-------\0           Mimiru

No luck for Super Mimiru it would seem as Frei's own chi manages to overpower her own. Alas, when such things happen, there's only one thing Mimiru can count on and it's about avoiding getting hit by the blast. Which she manages to perform fairly well enough, considering her rather poor previous performance. The girl growls and she comes out from the blast, dashing off toward Frei, "Waaaah!" She shouts.
"Evil can't be good! You're talking nonsense, that doesn't work!" Mimiru shouts as she tries to ram Frei with her head, right into his stomach.


[               \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  /////////                     ]
Frei             0/-------/-------|=======\-------\0           Mimiru

In a sort of Warner Bros. cartoon way, Frei puts out his hand palm-down and catches Mimiru, letting her run in place for a moment, before stepping slightly to the side and moving his hand away, letting her run on by. Of course, that did sting on his hand a bit, but not so bad he can't take it. "Well, what you think is 'good' and what you think is 'evil' won't always match up to what other people think is good or evil. What's good to you might be evil to someone else... so things can both be what they are, and what they aren't."
Deciding to take his cue from Alma, Frei leaps back into the... well, fray... with a series of kicks, three in a row aimed at Mimiru's calf, then her waist, then her shoulder. "Of course, that doesn't change what you believe. But the world isn't always about what one person thinks. Not even me."


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

Mimiru half-takes a step back, lifting her leg up to actually avoid the first low-kick and then block the one to her waist with her forearm, the other high kick deflected by a strike of her forearm. Mimiru pants softly and she bites her lips as she glances up at Frei for a moment, "Huh... Still! Evil and good are things that, well, it's universal and all, it doesn't work that way..." Mimiru says. Not like she had a whole lot of time to think about it, but she's not going to start to doubt about all of this here! Evil is evil. Period.

Mimiru then lunges toward Frei and she attempts to get a hold of him. If she suceeds, she'll then simply lean back and use her legs to destabilize him. Then with a quick spin on herself, she'll hurl Frei around her and shouts as she drags him around her and then slams him to the ground.


[                  \\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  ////////                      ]
Frei             0/-------/----===|-------\-------\0           Mimiru

Oof! Right in the dirt. Looks like the good-versus-evil argument will have to wait. Frei lays on the ground, staring at the sky with a blank expression, staring up at the sky. "Cloud Bea Arthur," he says quietly, sounding dazed, "if you can't admit that Cloud Rue McLanahan is hotter than you are, well, that's not her fault..." Maybe Mimiru hit him a little harder than she should have...
However, after a moment Frei springs to his feet, taking a deep breath and trying to get his bearings. Okay. He wobbles a bit, then takes a deep breath and... focuses. Gotta get it together. "You'll see as you get older," he says with a smile, though it's hard not to come off as condescending with that line. "It just takes time."


[                 \\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  ////////                      ]
Frei             0/-------/=======|-------\-------\0           Mimiru

Mimiru blinks a couple of time and she arches a brow. "Who...?" She asks, blinking a couple of time. The girl shakes her head a few times and she lifts her guard up once more. She seems more or less exhausted from the little beating she's been getting but still, she's slowly recovering her senses... Though she'll need a little more than that to be able to stand till the end of the fight!

"Come on, shake it off!" She says, sticking her tongue out. Well if Frei can't do it, Mimiru will help him! She lunges at him and she attempts to give him a pretty nasty headbutt, "Kyaaa!" She shouts as she does it. "There take that! That'll help you get things straight in your head!"


[               \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  ////////                      ]
Frei             0/-------/=======|-------\-------\0           Mimiru

Ah, but Frei is already pretty calm, and Mimiru pretty riled... which is atypical considering the monk's usually bombastic nature, but it's working to his advantage. As the headbutt comes in, the monk puts out a single finger, finding the point where momentum and resistance meet with such unerring precision that he's able to direct Mimiru right on past, unhindered and unmolested. "Well, I'm pretty confident in the way I think. But it's usually a sign of doubt when you get confused and angry if someone questions you." He flings out both hands, with his arms ending up crossed just before his face, and two familiar blue-white spheres of icy chi lash out toward Mimiru, looking to put the chill on her again, and hopefully end the fight. "But there's no room for doubt if you want to get ahead."


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

Mimiru doesn't have the attention to focus on two things at once. Thinking about things like that and fighting doesn't mix well enough and trying to do both merely makes Mimiru fail uterly at both, "I'm not angry or confused!" Mimiru protests, sticking her tongue out a little. The girl blinks a few times and she attempts to defend herself against the blast but much like last time, she fails to do so.

The blast of chi takes up her last chunk of energy and at this point, it's pretty useless to keep on fighting but still! Mimiru takes all of her strength for one last desperate attack! She lunges at Frei and she shouts, "Waaaah!" Here goes the mighty super kick!

[                  \\\\\\\\\\\\  <
Frei             1/-----==/=======|

Perhaps Frei has finally made someone fall prey to his usual super weakness: combat banter. As Mimiru comes in for her kick, the monk throws up a forearm, gently diverting the blow off to the side and then falling back into stance as he exhales slowly. Maybe Alma was on to something with that whole flow-of-the-fight deal, but the monk remains confident that his philosophy and Alma's are compatible, not competing.
He walks over to Mimiru and offers her a hand up, smiling. "I never said you did. But if you really are going to be a 'hero', then you need to be prepared. Yeah, I think you're whole Orochi thing is a little weird, but you obviously take it seriously, so I will too." Whether Mimiru accepts Frei's help or not, though, the monk feels it's time to go after. He waves over his shoulder at her. Why not play along? "Besides, if your real goal is to defeat the Orochi, then we'll have to fight again... and we might not be on the same side."
