SNF 2007.02 - Prom! D.Hwan vs Nanako/Ingrid

Description: Justice High sets the stage for this particular SNF, where fighters Ingrid Holmann and Nanako Yanagimura face off against Dong Hwan, of the Kim family fame. Unfortunately, the prom atmosphere is quickly dissolved the moment the fighters face off. Also, a camera gets utterly destroyed and Dong Hwan proves miracles CAN happen if you just believe!! (Winner: Ingrid and Nanako)



It's a dark and stormy day in Southtown, a sudden thunderhead having moved in overhead, rain comes down in sheets and high winds whip between the buildings while thunder rumbles and lightning flashes to chaotic effect. Luckily, the Saturday Night Fight match about to start is happening indoors! Inside a ballroom in Justice High to be exact, everything having been done up beautifully in the style of a High School Prom. Who knows, maybe prom night really was the day before, or will be held tomorrow? There are grand streamers hanging high, and the entire atmosphere gives a look of extreme elegance, a standard prom rather than a themed one.
At least one of the fighters is hear already in the form of Ingrid Holmann, who has, in the spirit of the decorations, traded in her normal clothing for a floor length black gown. It looks very nice on her, flaring at the hips with a large black bow on the small of her back, her seemingly white hair now showing it's faint straw blonde coloring in the darkened ambiance of a school dance. To match and complete the outfit she wears two black gloves that reach up to her elbows and a pair of fancy looking heeled shoes.
The young woman, perhaps a year or two too young for a senior prom herself had she attended a public school, seems ready to fight whenever the time is appropriate, a soft smile sitting on her face. The loud rumbles overhead from the storm don't seem to bother her at all as she chats idly with one of the camera crew.



Dong Hwan, international man of mystery, has been laying low for quite some time now. No one has seen or heard from him in quite some time, and usually when that happens he's on a extended vacation to a foreign country, too busy seducing women and living wild to worry about the whole fighting career thing he's got going on. But behold, he's emerged from his hiatus and come back to the world of fighting, and what better way to return than a nice Saturday Night Fight with two lovely ladies!
And so, Dong Hwan finds himself back at high school. He's about the right age for his prom, if he was held back a year, so he fits in just fine, even if his attire--a pair of blue jeans, a white muscle shirt and a black leather jacket--doesn't. The torrential rainstorm outside has delayed him slightly--or we can use that as the excuse, since he'd probably have been late anyway. As he pushes his way through the door, exceptionally loudly, he's completely soaked to the bone, hair hanging down around his face. One has to admit, when his hair isn't spiked up, covering his eyes and all, he has kind of a cute bishy look to him. Sorry ladies, it won't last long. The pleasant music scratches to a stop as he arrives (and Dong Hwan definitely didn't pay the DJ to do this to increase the dramatics of his entrance, definitely), Dong Hwan taking a pause to survey the audience slowly, aware that he's caught most everyone's attention with his entrance and disheveled look in such a formalish... fighting event. Oh how the mighty--mighty cool at least--have fallen.
But wait! As a hand digs in to a pocket, he pulls out which appears to be a switchblade. And with a flick of his wrist, not a knife but instead a comb pops out from the spring loaded device, and in the same motion sweeps his hair straight up. A flash of lighting later--and a change of camera angle to hide the fact that he actually went off the set, dried off and had the make up crew work him over--his hair is standing straight up in it's usual style, and Dong Hwan is back to his normal, wild stray cat self. "Now, let's get this party started."



About ten minutes pass since the arrival of both Ingrid and Dong Hwan, and no sign of the final contender - Nanako Yanagimura - can be seen. Overhead, the skies rumble, the soft patter of rain heard over the soft music filling the air. Clearly the storm has begun to pick up speed, but that doesn't seem to stop the other fighters present. It only seems to hinder the likes of Nanako. Will she even arrive?

Just when all seems lost, the front doors of the main hall slam open, the silhouette of a short young woman seen in its threshold. With her hands outstretched at her sides, she holds open the large doors, her shoulders rising and falling quite visibly, as if winded. Chances are she probably is. Either way, the girl's breath can be heard over the music as she inhales deeply, her head rising.

"SORRY," she bellows loudly, bowing her head deeply before she rushes into the room. When the light hits her, it's not exactly a pretty sight. Wearing a shockingly pink gown that's probably a size too large for her - especially in the chest - it's all topped off with horribly, horribly large, fluffy pink sleeves. It's awful, and likely something she pulled out of her mom's closet.

"I had to stop and buy a dress for this! The thrift store was almost closed!" Well that explains that. To make matters worse, the girl's ponytail is disheveled, crooked and resting more to one side of her head than on its back. Topping it off, she's a little soaked. But that's okay! Leaping up, the girl makes a hop forward into the center of the floor, hands on her hips as she points it at Dong Hwan. "ARE YOU READY...TO GET ROCKED?!"

More than likely, in the ten minutes it took for Nanako to arrive, Dong Hwan flirted with and was most likely rejected by Ingrid, so he instead went on to flirt with some random audience member who at least laughed at his antics. He's a mingling type, and does so for as long as he has. Heck, he might still be flirting with Ingrid by the time Nanako shows up, if the blonde bombshell is the type to lead him on.
And then, Nanako arrives, causing Dong Hwan to break away from whatever girl he's flirting with at the time, probably with a blown kiss, and stands--overconfidently--between Nanako and Ingrid. "What big lungs you have, little red riding hood." Dong Hwan comments to Nanako with a somewhat bewildered but still amused tone and expression.
He's a bit taken aback by Nanako's comments and exclamation, the smirk and wide eyes giving away that he's trying his best not to burst out laughing at the display. "Ready to..." He pauses, managing to release his hysterical laughter in a gentle chuckle. "Alright, princess peach, you sure look eager, so let's see what you've got." He stands casually, hands at his waist, thumbs looped through his belt, standing in a very typical "cool" posture, kind of slouchy and relaxed. Waiting. He's too lazy to take the first swing, that'd involve walking over to his target.

COMBATSYS: DongHwan takes no action.

A smile creeps across Ingrid's face at Dong Hwan's entrance. She has to admit, it was pretty good. A bit of her personality shows when Dong Hwan flirts with her, and rather than rejecting him and sending him packing she manages to play along without outright flirting back to him which ends when Nanako enters. A small, amused laugh emerges from her at the blown kiss, and who can tell if it's a laugh with him, or at him? She smiles to Nanako and gives her a slight wave when she enters; she is her teammate after all, her smile spreading when she declares her intent to Dong Hwan.
But it looks like the Tae Kwon Do practitioner is going to give up the initiative to the pair of young ladies, and Ingrid won't waste an opportunity. She doesn't mistake his easy stance for a lack of preparedness, however, because as she herself moves into her fighting stance it is much the same, loose and open, allowing for ease of movement, arms swaying gently at her sides. In but a moment, however, the sound of her heels clacking across the dance floor can be heard as she sprints for Dong Hwan. It looks like she's going to either throw a hard punch at him or try to ram him into the ground, but instead she jumps up into the air five feet away from him and goes sailing over while doing a single forward flip, her arm swinging back and then forward with a golden trail of sparkling psi flowing after the forward swing and a shining golden ball emerging from her and flying straight down, attempting to hit him from above and distract him enough to give Nanako an opening while Ingrid makes her landing.



The compliment given draws a huge grin across the girl's lips, Nanako's shoulders rising up as she inhales, puffing herself up. "YEAH," she chimes, a thumb jerking toward her chest. "All the better to kick some butt with! Or...something." That wasn't exactly the best way to follow that up, but who cares, right? It's all about getting on with this SNF!

‘Princess Peach?' Furrowing her brows, the girl puckers her lips in an expression of mild annoyance before she simply shuts her eyes and waves a hand. "You just wait! I'll show you what I'm capable of!" He's not going to attack? Blinking, Nanako's head tilts idly to one side, her confusion broken only when Ingrid runs past and makes her attack on Dong Hwan. Blinking again, the girl furrows her brows before she smirks. "I'll let her show you how it's done first, though! Go go Ingrid!" she calls out before she squints her eyes, focusing on the Kaphwan kid. If he's anything like his dad, this could be a little tricky.

COMBATSYS: Nanako focuses on her next action.

"C'mon, what's taking you so long?" The big bad wolf barks out at his pink clad opponent. Dong Hwan lets out a sigh, standing motionless for a long moment. It's hard to tell if he's even aware of Ingrid charging at him, expecting the girl in front of him to take the shot he offered, not expected to be clubbed in the back of the head.
As it turns out though, Dong Hwan is either unnaturally lucky or playing it off that it was an accident rather than something he fully planned. A hand is left hanging straight up in the air, palm pointing straight up and fingers spread out. One would have to watch very closely to see exactly how he got his leather jacket off in an instant, and threw it straight up in to the air, plowing through Ingrid's attack. His Leather Jacket lands somewhere off to the side, in tatters. Dong Hwan doesn't notice. "You're the kind of girl who likes to take it slow, I take it?"



Ingrid has no doubt in her mind that Dong Hwan's reaction to her attack was intentional, although she could be wrong. To her this just proves that she has to be careful, landing and continuing to move, stopping beside Nanako. She gives her a small look with a smile and asks, "Follow my lead?" She then gives Dong Hwan a smile, "Are you ready?" She sends him a wink, and then leans forward and sprints forward again, this time a huge amount of energy forming in her right arm and leaving a large sparkling trail of energy behind her. She pulls it back as if to punch and swings hard. The catch is that at the same time she veers right as a feint, once again hoping to draw Dong Hwan's attention in order for Nanako to flatten him with her own attack.

COMBATSYS: Ingrid assists Nanako.

He stopped her attack with his jacket? That'd be really cool, if Nanako wasn't currently fighting him as her opponent! But that doesn't stop her from grinning broadly in response. "That's pretty slick there!" she calls out, just before she idly tugs and fidgets with the uncomfortable (and kinda scratchy) dress that half-hangs from her form. Fortunately, however, her other clothes can be seen underneath. No peep shows, perverts!

As Ingrid stops nearby, the other girl glances aside, blinking in mild confusion before she lifts a finger and idly rubs her chin. "Er...alright!" she exclaims, just before she furrows her brows and thrusts a finger at Dong Hwan once more. "GET READY!" she cries, just as Ingrid rushes in and distracts him. Using that to her advantage, the girl rushes forward, darting in after Dong Hwan just behind Ingrid. Only when she feints does Nanako leaps over her and lands in front of the Kaphwan kid and beams wide. "SUP!?"

That's when she attempts to slip around him and snag him from behind in a Psycho Power-enhanced bearhug, before lifting him up into the air (somehow!!) and suplexing him head-first into the ground.

Awww, and here Dong Hwan was hoping to get an upskirt shot. As he looks to Ingrid, confused by what she's doing--he's apparently not the quickest knife in the... right anyway, he ultimately is unable to escape the crushing of Ingrid's crushiness.
As Nanako lands directly in front of him, his eyes widen a bit. "Hi there." He comments coolly, but his tune changes when he's hoisted up and slammed down once again. "Woah damn!" He hollers, oofing as he's up and over. That energy! Dong Hwan recognizes that, and he knows it's not the normal kind of energy. It hurts more! Now Dong Hwan might have to take this a little seriously. Maybe a little.
Of course, this is why he hops up to his feet rapidly to avoid having the expected peoples elbow dropped on him by Ingrid, not wanting to leave himself vulnerable for long. "Yikes! You're cute, but I guess I'll have to take a swing at you after all. And here I was just hoping to wear you out and talk you down... Alright ladies, alright." He says, pacing back and forth for a moment before bursting in to motion and going to kick Nanako in the chest. "Keeeyaaah!" He hollers out, a trail of lightning emanating from his extended leg, which probably makes his kick look faster than it really is. Oh, and it might hurt a little more, or something.



Sorry Dong Hwan, Ingrid normally wouldn't resort to such tactics, b- Wait a minute, yes she would! She has no qualms about turning people's emotions against them, with the added perk of being an empath to know what those emotions are. Besides, what's a little wink here and there anyway. She stops and turns a few paces from him after her feint, watching Nanako pick him up and slam him straight back into the floor. "Good job, Nanako!" Good thing she looked at the roster before the fight, or she wouldn't know her name. That said, the young woman stops where she is and holds, her arms dropping again into an easy sway beside herself in her standard combat position. This time she's letting Nanako take the initiative while preparing herself and studying Dong Hwan.

COMBATSYS: Ingrid focuses on her next action.

His response earns him a broad grin from the tiny young woman, despite how utterly awkward she looks in that dress and the way her hair is a bit ajar. But that doesn't get her down! Still, she's not about to waste time given to her by Ingrid; weaving around like some sort of carnation-colored snake, Nanako grabs hold of Dong Hwan and hefts him up, slamming the poor guy into the ground beneath her. When that's over, Nanako rolls aside and scrambles to her feet, mildly frustrated as her feet get caught on her hem.

"S-stupid dress!" she exclaims, stomping a foot as she gives a few harsh tugs. When she looks back up, however, she's privy to the sight of Dong Hwan kicking at her with a lightning-covered kick. "W-WHAT!?" the girl exclaims, instinct guiding her hand as she lashes out in response. Hands aglow, she stops the kick in the palm of her hand before the other hand swings up and strikes the Kaphwan heir in the gut, a blast of really pink Psycho Power exploding and knocking him back.

"Don't scare me like that!" she cries, exasperated, before she tugs her dress a bit more.


Ooof, Dong Hwan is down for the count. Or is he?! His attack turned against him, he goes sailing and skids to a stop, holding his ribs as he pulls himself back up to his feet. Last time it was sudden. This time it was... not, so much. "Um, ow? Okay, okay. No, you two stay right there, don't you dare move, I'm going to hit you with a camera." Dong Hwan says, walking over to one of the camera men. The guy probably knows what's coming, and he doesn't end up putting up too much of a fight as the fighter tugs the camera out of his hand, yanking out the cords to give him the freedom of movement. "Take it out of my pay." He says to the guy.
Seriously, this is exceptionally slow moving. Dong Hwan swings the camera he's confiscated in a wide arc, sacrificing speed for extreme power, trying to obliterate Nanako all at once and make up some of the deficit he's in. Will she react in time, or will she be flattened? Tune in next time!

Ingrid isn't ready to let Dong Hwan smash Nanako with a camera, especially after her partner put up such an amazing effort to stop that kick! As Dong Hwan goes for the camera, the blonde moves in, attempting to do so slowly enough to stop her heels from clacking loudly on the floor, sort of sneaking over to him. She waits until he's pulling back the camera to swing, and then speaks up, "Not so fast!" She hopes to startle him enough to delay his attack, while at the same time catching him off guard and reaching a foot out to place on the back of his knee and kicking hard, hoping to collapse his knee and send him to the ground, hopefully throwing his aim off enough that the camera will miss Nanako altogether. Or so she hopes.

There's a look of abject horror on Nanako's face as Dong Hwan picks up the camera and hefts it up, her face flushed. Why's he doing that? Doesn't he realize there are people at home watching this fight?! And why would he want to hit a girl with it!? Lifting a finger, the girl hefts her skirt up in the other hand, singling the man out. "HEY!!" she cries, "Isn't that illegal or something?? You shouldn't be destroying SNF property like that!!"

Though, seriously, she's just trying to guilt-trip the poor guy. Not that it really WORKS or anything. Trying her best to avoid the camera altogether, Nanako trips and falls quite miserably, not thanks to the ridiculously long hem of her ugly pink prom gown. Falling, she lands right in the path of the camera, all but crushed beneath its weight. Is she down for good? Dead?

"O...oooow," a moan from beneath the rubble of broken camera, Nanako slowly but surely rises to her feet, dusting her dress off before she pauses, a thoughtful look on her face. Why is she still WEARING this!? Frustrated, Nanako grabs the dress and rips it off altogether, leaving herself in her typical duds. "THERE!!" she growls, stomping her feet in frustration before she rubs her side and goes back to tending to her embarrassing wounds. Ow. OW.

Crush. With Nanako in a serious hurt after his heavy impact, Dong Hwan has confidence restored, dropping the camera to the ground for the moment. I mean, it was cool, but using a Camera as a weapon isn't the best technique to use more than for that one surprise shot. "That's what that... power you use feels like to me! But um, sorry if you get a bruise." What? He's still a gentleman, sorta, even if he did just wail on her with a camera.
As for Ingrid's kick to his leg, it hits--but he doesn't go down, the impact of the kick being all that he feels. Using Ingrid's attack to his advantage, the leg she kicks swings out forward to kick Nanako in the thigh--or the rear if she's not facing him. Trying to keep the pressure on his chosen target, it'd seem! To Ingrid, he yells, "Ack, stop sneaking up behind me, sheesh!"



Ingrid looks a little distraught as Nanako gets simply crushed with the camera, especially when she simply lies there motionless for a few moments. Luckily, her partner gets back up after a moment, and seems to have recovered. But then there's the small matter of Dong Hwan, who easily seems to absorb the energy of her shove and redirected it forward into Nanako. And there's something else that she finds interesting. "I'm a little surprised, Dong Hwan. You seem to be ignoring my presence altogether. You are fighting the both of us, you realize?" That being said, she holds her arms out and presses them against Dong Hwan's back, and then simply unloads a large amount of golden psycho power (what a horrid name!) into him, sparkling energy streaming out and threatening to completely surround his entire body, in an attempt to essentially cook him in place if he's going to ignore her.

He's apologizing for smashing her with a camera? Looking up as she idly kicks the remains of her outfit away, Nanako's brows furrow slightly before she turns her head and waves a hand about. "Pssh, s'fine," she mumbles, lips puckered as she tries to shrug off the embarrassment of being bludgeoned half to death. It's so not cool, you know??

Ingrid makes her kick, and while Dong Hwan seems to otherwise absorb it and shrug it off entirely, Nanako keeps a close eye on the kid. His leg shifts, and moments after it comes right for her thigh. Her mouth drops open, her expression one of disbelief as she bounces back, looking mildly offended. "Pervert!" she cries, just before she leaps up and tries to kick Dong Hwan right in the face with her Mary Jane shoe. "AAAAH!" Hard. Hopefully before Ingrid cooks him!

Dong Hwan stands motionless as Ingrid shoves her psycho power directly in to the Korean combatant. He can't ignore that, but that doesn't mean his attention is gonna break from Nanako! However, the light consumes his whole body, and for a moment, it looks like he may have been completely destroyed. Golden energy is all that's there where he once was, and a loud scream emits from the Tae Kwan Do fighter.
But, then the rock music starts or will when this is made in to an anime some time in the future, as the light starts to fade away. Dong Hwan is still surrounded in energy, his figure visible in the center of sparks of lightning flying off in every which direction. Outside, a lightning bolt streaks across the sky--and the power is knocked out, making Dong Hwan the focus of everyone as he has become the only light source in the hall. Nanako's kick is plowed straight through as Dong Hwan returns the favor suddenly, the electricity suddenly blinking out as he delivers a flurry of kicks to Nanako. Each impact causes a flash, lighting up the inside of the hall like a strobe light, ending with another pillar of lightning as he kicks Nanako straight up in to the air, rising with her through the column of his power. He spent a lot to pull that off, and as he lands in the pitch darkness, the sound of his gasping can be heard, giving away his position to future assailants.



When the lights go out, all that Ingrid can see is Nanako getting smashed by a multitude of lightning kicks, and then sudden blackness. It comes to reason that Nanako wasn't able to survive a strike like that, but it also stands to reason that Dong Hwan is hurt bad due to the scream he made while being bathed in psycho power (again, that name!). The best thing the young woman can get out of this is that she is, as it stands, completely untouched. Not a single hit has been landed on her, simply because not a single hit has been sent her way. This means she can take risks. Golden energy suddenly surrounds her form, lighting her up nicely as well as casting enough light to show her Dong Hwan's current location. She turns to face him and then jumps, twirling around quickly in the air and trying to hit him with her elbows out to hit him, and upon landing she jumps again, the whole top half of her body bending backwards while her feet kick out in a whip-like motion, a stream of golden energy tracing behind her heels for added effect as she raises up into the air and completing the jump in a reverse flip.



At this point, Nanako's not really paying much attention, if any whatsoever, to what her partner Ingrid is doing. All she sees at the moment is Dong Hwan, and all she wants to do is put her shoe in his face, because he's a pervert. And she lets him know in the loudest voice possible, despite her tiny stature. The cry rings out, even as the lights cut out briefly.

Somewhere in there, Nanako thinks she lost her kidney. A burst of lightning erupts from the guy, blinding her briefly as she flies at him. Interrupted mid-kick, she's caught in a flurry of electrically-charged kicks, only to be kicked up high into the air and devoured by a column of chi energy before landing with a harsh, meaty thud.

Why her? Why is he picking on her!?

"HOOOOOOH!" Rolling quite swiftly to her feet, the girl crouches low, her form shimmering, pink motes of light rising from around her. Determined, Nanako lunges forward and chooses in that moment to meet his brutal assault in kind - returning the favor, the girl erupts in a column of pink chi energies, which swirl up violently, ripping streamers and decorations from the ceiling and likely leaving a nice mess in the process!

COMBATSYS: DongHwan just-defends Ingrid's Sunrise EX!

Dong Hwan takes a moment to catch his breath, his gasps turning in to heavy, deep inhales, slowly taken in, and then released. A hand lifts up in front of him, moving around in some tai chi-like pattern, ending up with palm facing out. The other follows, as he mentally prepares himself for what he's about to do. As the two ladies converge on him, two energies colliding with him in the middle, the ladies know faster than the viewers what has happened. Dong Hwan snapped in to action, arms snapping out to either side, open palm stopping the attacks of both fighters all at once. He tips his head down, closing his eyes tight... then, the golden and pink energies are dispelled or deflected as a bright flash of lightning reveals the room once more, and show that both girls have been pushed back off of him, their attacks not harming him at all.
Revitalized, Dong Hwan is once again homing in on his target... Nanako. Must get her down... He's pulled off some amazing moves, but he's still two on one, and his wounds are definitely not something he can brush off. His lunge for Nanako finishes as he swings an arm around, trying to take her out with a quick snap to the chin with his right arm. He knows she's hurting too...



That...obviously didn't work. Ingrid is somewhat in awe of DongHwan as he manages to redirect the two attacks into each other, or simply stop them both in a single simple movement. This is, to say the least, an awesome, amazing move by the tae kwan do user. If she weren't in the middle of fighting him, she'd probably revel in it for a moments. As it is, she simply states. "I must commend you on your fighting ability, Dong Hwan. I cannot help but feel lucky to be involved in this fight." Giving him an ego boost? No, giving him his due.
But she can't just stand there forever, not when he's coming after her partner. Her orthodox maneuver failed, and so she goes for a less orthodox one, she simply rushes forward and tries to tackle him around the waist, trying to slam into his side with her shoulder, using speed to supply the force.

A clash of energies erupts in the center of the hall, making for quite the display for all spectators. Eventually, however, that column of Psycho Power vanishes, leaving a winded Nanako at its center, shoulders sagging as she all but tries to breathe. This really bites! He's tougher than he looks, but damned if Nanako is going to give up and just disappoint her SNF partner here!

Lifting a hand, Nanako idly rubs her finger under her nose as she grins. "Ha ha! That was mighty impressive, mister Kim!" she exclaims, offering the young fighter a thumbs up. Sadly, it's about then he's looking to kick her again and put her out of commission. Looking mildly offended by this, Nanako stomps a foot hard, her shoe slapping noisily against the wooden floor of the hall. Rather than offer something witty (likely because she's out of them) she lets her hand fire up in Psycho Power, lashing out at his arm to catch it and stop it halfway. Grinning broadly, the girl's hand juts forward and erupts in that pink burst of fierce energy again, knocking him back and right for Ingrid.

"GET 'EM!" she cries, getting too into the fight now. How exciting!!

COMBATSYS: DongHwan dodges Ingrid's Strong Throw.

Staggering back after being smacked for Ingrid by Nanako, Dong Hwan is aware of their plot--and this is why he pops up in to the air, leaping right over his opponent with a backflip, stumbling to the ground when he lands. He pauses then. Someone actually gave Dong Hwan the respect he deserves?! Dong Hwan looks... surprised, actually. "Uh... thanks." He replies, giving Ingrid a bit of a nod, hands on his knees holding him upright. "You ladies are pretty tough, I'll give it to you." He says as he stands up straight, taking one heavy breath.
"Eh, how troublesome." Shikamaru murmurs. "Alright, alright, here I go." Dong Hwan breaks in to a rush for Ingrid. Oh dear, is he really gonna hit her? Nope, as he gets right up to her he ducks and slides low, sneaking past her to finish his Charge for Nanako. She will go down! On the way past a hand reaches out to give Ingrid a pat on the butt, but that's about the most of an attack that he's sent her way this fight, 'tis true. Hopefully, the darkness conceals his attack--there's no chi on this one! Just a number of kicks, smacking his opponent around and hopefully taking her out of this fight, so that he can contend with Ingrid one on one!



Ingrid looks prepared to deal with Dong Hwan as he rushes for her, suddenly veering in his course and going for Nanako. ...that's nearly the same thing she did to him earlier. ...except on the way past he grabs her ass. ...okay. Her eyes widen a little at that, and then they return to their normal state. She isn't going to let him get the better of her. That could have been a simple tactic and nothing more. That or he's a letch, the former being far more likely. She shakes her head a little, and lifts one of her feet up, and then another. That being done she drops one of her shoes, and then simply throws the other at the back of Dong Hwan's head.

COMBATSYS: DongHwan successfully hits Nanako with Ashi Binta.

The compliment is met with a grin, but Nanako's keeping relatively quiet at this point. It's best to, after all, bide her time and energy. She's barely keeping awake here! It's hard when you've pretty much been bludgeoned to death with a camera and brutally assaulted with chi-laced lightning kicks. But it's so much fun. She can't deny that.

Watching as Dong Hwan rushes at Ingrid, Nanako seems pleased he's keeping his attention OFF her. But, what's this? Just as she's about to go and punch him in the back of the head he veers past and comes at her instead! "H-HEY!!!" she cries, just before she's kicked around like a ragdoll again. God, why do the boys have to hit so hard!?

Furrowing her brows, Nanako slowly but surely climbs to her feet. Having a hard time focusing, the girl wobbles a bit before she grunts, holding her side. "N...not down yet," she mumbles, just before she lunges at Dong Hwan, hand outstretched. And if those hands should grab hold...

COMBATSYS: Nanako can no longer fight.

After the kicks have been delivered to Nanako, Dong Hwan turns and starts running directly for Ingrid. Her grasp falls short as Dong Hwan is already on his way off to the other woman, charging straight through the heel as he delivers a flurry of kicks to Ingrid as well.
Before he's upon her and lighting up the room with his shocking kicks, however, he calls out to his opponent, "I'm sorry for this, try not to land on that pretty head of yours!" Well, she was leading him along earlier, so he's prone to not want to hurt her feelings. Even if the barrage probably hurts her body. Nothing personal though.



Ingrid tries to prepare herself as she sees DongHwan coming through the shoe, suddenly thinking she should have used something a mite more powerful. Unfortunately, that simply isn't didn't happen, and she's kicked high into the air with a series of powerful kicks, a small cry of pain escaping her from the last one, and again as she hits the floor. She looks a bit of a mess for all that, and then picks herself up slowly, reaching a hand up to brush her hair back into place. So, he can deal out the pain with the best of them, but Ingrid simply tells herself that she must keep her mind focused. "My head is fine, thank you." There's a bit of humor in her voice.

COMBATSYS: Ingrid gains composure.

After the light fades, Dong Hwan disappears in to the darkness. He's hurt. He's hurt bad. And he's going to need to resort to some real trickery to pull this one off. With the two of them hiding in the dark, Dong Hwan takes some time to collect himself as well, trying to maneuver in the dark quietly, making it harder for his opponent to pin point his exact location and giving him some time to recover. "Good thing," He calls out in to the darkness. "I'd hate to hurt a beautiful young girl like you." Even during a fight, he's trying to win points. That's Dong Hwan. So wait, why wasn't he doing the same when he was pounding on Nanako? Maybe he didn't like her choice of attire.

Is it going to be a waiting game? "Flirting with me isn't going to make me go easy on you, Kim Dong Hwan." She uses his full name, but not with that 'you're in trouble' tone normally associated with female use of full names. "But thank you for being worried about me. I assure you, though, you needn't go easy on me simply because I'm a girl." That being said, she continues to calm her mind, using his voice to try and pinpoint his exact location.

Ingrid did all that. Yep.

A laugh helps with Ingrid's attempts at pin pointing him. "I wouldn't want you to." Dong Hwan retorts, adding, "And believe me, I won't. This fight isn't quite over yet..." Then, a slight clatter sound gives Ingrid a good chance to determine where he is. And hopefully for her the woosh sound can give her an idea of where the camera he found and flung through the air in her general direction is. Looks like Dong Hwan wants to keep his distance for now, playing as carefully as is possible without just sneaking out in to the rainstorm!

And help it does. When she hears it, she's already moving. Ditching the shoes has left her barefoot, and that helps muffle her footsteps. Dong Hwan's talking does much to help cover those footsteps up, and the clatter does the rest. By the time he's throwing the camera, she's already there. "Hya!" She quickly flips over backwards, executing much the same move as she did before, only without the jump in. It's executed shockingly fast, her feet into his chin and sending him up into the air while psycho power pours over him. Of course there's still that camera, which hits her in the chest and kills her balance, ending in her landing hard on her shoulder. "Oof!" She picks herself up, though, and quickly compared to the first series of powerful kicks he laid on her.

"Erk!" Dong Hwan calls out as he's sent straight up in to the air. He drops straight back down, however, and looks like he's going to land on Ingrid... but instead lands with ALL of his weight on her bare foot, or tries to at least. When he lands, there's a big, single spark of electricity from his double footed stomp... and after which, hit or miss, he then collapses right to the ground, unable to move... assuming she doesn't counter, then it's less of a collapse and more of a goes flying then hits the ground. Good night sweet prince.

Rather than simply wait for her foot to get stomped Ingrid raises her arms and crosses them, stepping forward to take the landing directly on the point where they meet and bracing herself for impact. The foot connects, and her body compresses, but in the end Dong Hwan is left literally teetering on one foot, standing on her crossed arms before he collapses and falls to the ground. The young woman then lifts her arm and wipes her brow with her hand, "That was close."

COMBATSYS: Ingrid has ended the fight here.
