SNF 2007.02 - Rolento/Rylee vs Duck/Zaki

Description: A mighty battle between two teams. The crazed militant Rolento teams with newcomer Rylee to take on what was supposed to be the duo of Duck King and Miu. The disappearance of the schoolgirl led to Seijyun sending a replacement in the form of Zaki. Chains, explosives, and P-chan! This fight has it all. (Winners: Duck and Zaki)



The rather interesting monolith of stone that is Hochbunker von Trier has been fully set up for today's Saturday Night Fight. Although direct audience participation is difficult given the somewhat small area atop the building, there should be more then enough cameras to compensate. And by far the signature of one of the more notorious fighters -- both due to his assault on Metro City and how horribly he is beaten upon by such noteworthies as Kain, Geese and Vega -- is the sound of an approaching helicopter. The almost catacomb design of the roof's sloping top should give a significant advantage to Rolento Schugerg, descending upon his line and landing within the central area where the actual arena is kept. Shifting to his side, his baton is unsheathed and twirled within his fingers.
To anyone familiar with the mercenary, he seems different. Taller. Stronger. There is almost a tangible amount of energy that he has not shown prior. Even his features seem somehow less harsh, no longer as deeply etched with the passage of time. These nuances are subtle and minute, but still there. Towards his partner, "This shall be a baseline exercise of my capabilities. Refrain from interfering in my assaults and there will be no issue in our mutual engagement. If possible, distract the second. Understood?" Dismissive and authoritive, it would seem. Rylee has not stood out in his eyes, and beyond such for once the purpose of this fight is more then propigating Geese Howard's empire with his criminal celebrity...

People might not be able to get up there to watch closely, but down below in the nearby parking lot near the giant structure a party is going on. There is even a mini stage set up and some local talent has been playing. Currently the headliner 'Aptly named 'Hasslehoff is God'' is setting up right now as fighters are starting to make their presence known starting with the rather nefarious Rolento Schugerg being the first of them. People start cheering when Duck's right hand man DJ Buddy Lee comes up onto the stage and he calls out. "And now where we people. The fighter everyone is here to see. DUCK KING!"
The mic is let go and then it starts. Wait...is that....why yes it is! The guitar starts up and suddenly a lovely rendition of 'Bad Medicine' starts up in German and fireworks even go off behind the stage as Duck King himself emerges up on top of the Hochbunker von Trier pointing to the air and then waving to all the people. "Ooooooh yeeeaaaaah. Lets get this party started!"

It has been quite some time since she got to experience the excitement of SNF so when Rylee found out she was called up to make an appearance she was more than ready to go. To top it all off it involved international travel so the Canadian wrestler was all for it since it allows herself to attempt to build a fanbase in a country she has never been to. Of course sadly it will probably be reasons other than her style that will draw the attention of most of the crowd, but it will be something she can live with.
She finishes her own journey up to the top of the designated fighting area wondering why the hell they had to fight on top of the damn thing. An answer she soon gets when her partner arrives via helicopter which elicites a mutter from the redhead. Then of course Duck's entrance is pretty grand in itself which causes her to roll her eyes and mumble "Show offs." while cracking her knuckles and getting prepared for the fight to come.

One probably wonders where the final contestant for tonight's match is, i.e. Duck's partner. They're nowhere near his party, they're not in the arena, and no one seems to know a thing about it. There's just this rumor going around about her having gotten lost in all likelihood, being a Japanese schoolgirl of pale complexion and with a fondness for dark places and all that. Maybe she wandered into an alleyway and... yeah, who knows. The lucky thing of it is her school was called and notified of her absence by someone or other and they sent a more capable and more responsible (pfft yeah right) young woman to rectify things.
And so, instead of Miu, tonight we have the gangster known as Zaki filling in, arriving at the very last minute and tromping into the arena behind Duck King, dressed in a uniform so heavily modified that no one in their current venue or even Japan itself would really recognize it as a school uniform, and carrying a coiled chain which is wrapped round her fist several times.

"You." Rolento points his baton towards Zaki, while adjusting the harness holding the dangling grenades. "Given that Duck King is a harmless Grade D combatant, I shall personally assess you." How insulting. But he then proceeds to slip into a combative stance, cracking his neck heavily to either side. Every motion and slither of the younger girl is observed by those cold white eyes, no apparent attention given to Duck in the slightest. Rylee can fend for herself, after all. Slouching forward, center of balance at the stomach rather then the feet, the commando smacks his baton into a palm regularly. Waiting. Almost expectantly...

Well no wonder why this guy is so disliked. Nevermind the fact that he took over Metro City and all that jazz. The guy is a dick! If P-chan was wearing a monocle at the moment it would pop right out at such a bad comment. "What the...grade D?" asks while scratching his head then finally frowning at what was said. Oh heeeell naw. It isn't going down at that. "Hey buddy let the ladies have their fun. I am your dance partner for the night."
Oh...OH! He still isn't paying attention. Is that it? Muttering some under his breath the king of ducks fiddles about looking for some debris that ends up being being in the form of a rock and he then just up and flings it right for the forehead of the militant. "Schugerg must translate to asshole!" he shouts out and shakes his fist afterwards.

Is there such thing as normal fighters anymore? The Canadian is left looking rather confused at the assortment of fighters that are now gathered and really stares oddly at the masked Zaki. "German bondage master I guess." she tells herself while shrugging helplessly. Of course it looks like Duck has started this fight off while she was busy staring at Zaki and she returns her attention to what might be going on. She really doesn't care who to go after at this point, but for now she is going to stand back and see what happens. She raises her arms and her brow furrows slightly while she looks between the wild haired fighter and the Seijyun girl deciding what one she should go after first.

The crimson-haired gang boss has the same general mannerisms of a yakuza. It doesn't exactly take a keen eye to figure that out. She seems reserverd, overconfident, and she's quick to take offense to something as simple as just being pointed at. Thrusting one thin eyebrow high and glaring back at Rolento, she spits back, "Oh yeah? What the hell are you, some kinda washed-up ROTC instructor? I don't care about your stinking grades so just shut up and fight, ah?"
As to Duck's own off-color remarks, she chuckles a little behind her mask a bit at those, watching to see what his rock gets him and whether or not she needs to follow it up with any kind of haste should it end up creating some kind of opening for her.

With infinite laziness, Rolento leans back. The rock just whizzes by with about six inches between. He actually still didn't glance in the man's direction, probably highlighting just how little he cares for "Such disrespect requires swift discipline! Let us proceed. GO!" With that, the man suddenly backflips. He lands upon one of the high arches above, crouching down and then launching towards Zaki. Snarling loudly, one foot whirls through the air, attempting to kick her in the face and send her impacting the ground with no small amount of force. He lands in a crouch thereafter, already starting to roll backwards anew. Rolento's battle plan: Never stop moving!

Duck King snaps his fingers when the rock seems to miss his mark and he still gets ignored. "Yeah go after the schoolgirl you old pedophile!" he calls out to Rolento before grumbling lightly to himself and he turns about to look over towards Rylee. "Eh, at least you seem to be down." he says and takes a deep breath before his feet start with the fancy footwork that has made him well known as both a odd fighter and a damn good dancer. He spins about on one foot and comes out of it in a dead run towards the wrestler and he throws forward his fist in an attempt to slam it right into the woman's gut. "Let's see what you can do!"

In a way Rylee is rather glad that Rolento opted to fight the weirdest looking of all the fighters. She can see why Rolento would be more interested in fighting Zaki since Duck seems to be pretty harmless. "Hey no problem. You'll be a piece of cake." she says with a grin and hunkers down a bit when he comes in. Her arms coming up to make a grab for his arm and instead she feels her hands brush along his mohawk and then the pain of getting a fist to her gut. The punch hits home and it is enough to cause Rylee to let out a sharp exhale and she staggers back a step before regaining her footing.
"Looks aren't everything I guess." she says while rubbing her waist. "Gonna take more than that to beat me!" she cries out and rushes forward a few steps and then leaps forward to thrust her knee forward and return the gut shot with one of her own. "Haaa!"

Zaki rolls her eyes at Rolento as Duck whiffs with the rock and the man he threw it at starts to make mention of 'discipline'. She got more than enough of that from her grandparent's and that's why she's the way she is today. A deviant that does pretty much whatever she wants without any regard for the consequences. Kind of like right now, how she thinks she can stand there and take the hit without blocking and weather it pretty well. That's simply not the case when you're kicked in the face that hard by a grown man.
The girl turns with the blow and almost spins before hitting the ground, but at the least she begins to push herself back up from it almost immediately, as if spurred by her own anger to do so. And she proves this to be true by stomping her foot upon righting herself and then kicking her leg up high in a wide arc, repeating the motion twice and throwing bright sparks of electricity in every direction as she aims to slash at Rolento with her boot heel. "Rat bastard!"

Smoothly Rolento yanks out a grenade, preparing to hurl it into Zaki's stomach and knock her back before she can reach him. Yet she's just a tad bit faster, and impacts the man rather smoothly. The commando is sent skidding backwards by the assault on his back, gash tearing open upon the front of his shirt. He gets to his feet smoothly, feeling the blood between his fingers and cracking his neck. "Insignificant threat." is decided. He then begins to twirl his baton somewhat lazily. "Your prospects of winning are minimal. I suggest immediate forfeit." He's simply standing there anew, waiting for the next response from the girl opposite. Still entirely unflustered!

After feeling a solid hit Duck is quick to pull his arm back and he steps back some shaking it. "Some solid abs there, chica." he says with a playful smirk playing across his features. Obviously Rylee seems to not find things as humorous and the attack made ends up coming in alot quicker than Duck had anticipated. He stutter steps around it and almost goes right over the edge in the process, but those well trained feet allow him to balance on the ledge before he can leap forward and land on solid ground again.
He needs to be much more careful for both his own safety and that of his opponents. Obviously Rolento doesn't seem to be thinking the same thing since Duck catches the man pulling free the grenade. "Hey careful up there with that asshole. Lemme know if you need help!" Rylee isn't forgotten though. Even as Duck shouts he is moving towards her and he leaps forward, catching the ground with his hands and using them to push off and further his momentum as he tries to slam his feet right into the already injured gut of the wrestler.

It looks like Rolento's grenade drew alot of attention from every fighter here. "Hey be careful! I don't want to be blown up yanno!" she calls to her partner, though he doesn't look like the type that would listen anyways. She is going to damn well say something though. In the end she becomes too distracted to notice Duck is charging her way and quickly the wrestler turns about to prepare for him. The plan was to move out of the way and snag him out of the air before throwing him down and giving a rather vicious twist of the arm. Instead the result is another strong blow to the stomach that knocks her right on her ass and panting a bit heavily. "Dammit!" she says while slamming her fist on the ground and getting to her feet. Time to get serious Rylee, this guy is making you look like a fool.

Zaki notices the grenade somewhat after the fact, but she makes note of its presence all the same and it doesn't really seem to bother her all that much. It still has yet to be used with his attempt being delayed by her swifter kicks so she simply resigns herself to dealing with it properly when the time inevitably comes again.
"Che, like I care. How many times have you said that to someone and actually seen them forfeit after? We're doing this the hard way or no way."
The gangster them drops down into a low crouch, with one arm resting comfortably on a thigh and her skirt resting along the floor of the arena, narrowing her eyes while sitting there in one of the most popular gangster poses around Japan, and then without warning she seems to shoot back up and shove the pointed toe of her boot toward Schugerg's throat. "Yeah, yeah, I think I got it for now, Duck. Thanks!" she shouts back at her would-be partner through clenched teeth.

"Many." Rolento admits quite brazenly, suddenly sheathing his baton and yanking out the pin of his grenade. "Those I cornered in Vietnam would throw down arms. Your decision is admirable..." Rolento is kicked in the throat, but immediately retaliates by attempting to grasp Zaki's leg, and heft her towards him. "FOR I TAKE NO PRISONERS!!" And then he attempts to slap the grenade against her chest, while thrusting out his baton to her stomach. The end result, if pulled off, would be her TWANGING away a fair distance upwards. Only said grenade would literally be stuck, and detonate with no small amount of force thereafter. A moment is finally spent to check on Rylee; Who is doing absolutely terrible. Well, he knows not to worry about including her in collateral damage now.

There is a bit of sympathy towards Rylee, really. The problem is her partner just happens to be an insane jackass so that means he has to try his best to eliminate the redhead so he can go and help his partner before she gets mauled pretty badly. "I really wish this could be under other circumstances, chica." he says to the Canadian while narrowing his eyes. He has to keep his focus on her for now even if the shouting of Rolento has him slightly worried for Zaki's safety. "Come to the Pond some time and we will have a proper fight." While she is getting to her feet he rushes forward, leaping into a forward roll till he is right near her then he springs upwards with a fierce uppercut aimed to nail her right in the chin. "DUCKYUKEN!"

If rape is illegal in Germany Rylee is so gonna call the cops on Duck King at this point. She isn't even fully up on her feet before she finds herself on the defense again. That punch busts her right in the chin and gashes her and causes a bit of blood to get on her shirt as well as his probably. She staggers back and falls on her back again. "Oh fuck this." she growls and while getting up. "You might have my number, but I ain't going down that easily!" she cries out and goes rushing right at him again and jumping to plant her foot on his knee and then twirl about to bring her leg about to slam her foot right into the back of the dancer's head. "Kyaaah!"

Zaki's eyebrow twitches just slightly after jabbing cleanly into Rolento's meaty throat only to find her ankle trapped just as she's attempting to retract it. "Ah dammit... " Her eyes understandably go wide when the grenade is armed and then stuck to her chest, a baton is jammed into her middle, and she's catapaulted into the air and left to explode.
She sails to the ground and hits with a sickening thud, but instead of a groan or a whimper she gives a menacing growl when she comes crawling back up out of the dissapating smoke, her clothing singed and the fingers of her vinyl gloves melted right off at their tips, the gangster girl having used them to try and pat out the flames.
"Oh you're gonna pay for that. That was just low." And no, she's not really as calm as her tone indicates. She's shaking with anger, and she just snapped the chain that had until now been hanging from the lock dangling off her collar, without properly unfastening. She broke the top link like she couldn't be bothered with it. And now she's stretching it between both fists and holding it before her face like it's a pair of nunchaku, taking a few deep, raspy breaths.

"I know of your fighting style. You are significantly more underhanded then I could aspire to be. Do not take your imminent and humiliating loss too personally. Had I not miscalculated due to vastly underestimating your minimal talents at the onset, this engagement would have been concluded with my last strike." Rolento reaches into his vest, pulling out a wedge-like knife and holding it between his fingers. "You are now preparing an attack you hope to be an equalizer. If my anticipation is correct you will risk an evasion on this strike." With that he flicks the weapon towards the girl, zipping with pinpoint speed and attempting to hit her in her right hand. Hard enough to, hopefully, make using it all the harder unless she wrenches the serrated weapon out. Well, someone's thoroughly arrogant, isn't he?

Mm, damn. Looks like he perhaps overdid thinks when he brought out the move he learned from Dan. Duck lands in a crouch after that uppercut and he isn't even standing fully before Rylee is jumping at him. He was expecting that strike to be another knee, but instead he feels weight being placed on his own leg was he is trying to jump back and his head is wide open to be slapped silly by the kick. The hit sends him staggering forward and almost right onto his face. "Oh hey, you do hit hard...." He rubs at the back of his head and then fist pumps with his free hand. "Awl right! Time to get serious!" he cries out and he jumps backwards to land on his back and push off with his hands to flip off the ground and come flying at Rylee's jaw with his feet heels first to smack into her and then catch himself on his hands to start spinning about on one while nailing the Canadian with repeated kicks.

This guy is just too much. Even landing a good hit on him doesn't seem to give her a break. He is too fresh and the beating she has taken has been too much to stand at this point. She is frustrated enough though at this point she just comes forward to meet his boots and takes the punishment of his attack in an attempt to grab him and knee him in the gut to throw him off balance. "I've had about enough of your shit." she puffs while reaching for him to set him up for what looks like a powerbomb, but instead of lifting him up she jumps forward and uses her momentum to bring him off his feet and slam him right down on his hed in a rather sickening looking variation of a piledriver. It looks to be about the extent of what she has left though and she slumps over breathing rather heavily whether she grabs him or not.

That could be true is some ways, Zaki has sort of been eyeing both Duck and Rylee from time to time already, considering which of them might make the better flail for her to beat her opponent with. She's always doing that. But the fact still remains, she hasn't done it yet, and she isn't carrying any explosives or other forms of artillery like Rolento.
"Whatever you say, man. Headgames like that are boring." In a sort of exaggerated lunge she leaps up out of the path of the missle in the form of a knife that's being thrown her way and slings her chain down into at an angle, sending it spinning harmlessly to the ground and letting the chain itself power through on a collision course with Rolento. But it obviously gets blocked so yeah. "Che!"

"I see I baited you into an alternative action, so my mind games are progressing as intended." Rolento mulls, snapping up his baton. The chain tangles it before being flicked into the ground, seeming to ruffle his sleeve slightly. How rude. Now that Rylee is down, there's a somewhat exasperated sigh. "The endurance of my opponent was insufficient to allow completion of our duel. But do not believe your victory is assured." Rolento calmly smooths out his outfit, in no particular rush or hurry. It's time for him to fully test the extent of his brand new A-Game.

Kick a kick a kick a oh hell naw. That punch to the gut hits home and he kinda lets himself get manhandled. Afterall how can you complain about having your head between thighs like that? Of course the girl is a bit sluggish with execution and instead of being tossed onto his head, he pushes off and launches himself right out of the woman's grasp and he goes flying off into the air and towards Rolento while he is hopefully still distracted by Zaki. "Uwaaaaaah!" he cries out to give away the fact he is coming right at Rolento as one giant spinning ball of Duck King goodness.

Zaki isn't really sure what just happened over there to the other side with Duck and Rylee, regardless of how much she was eyeballing them earlier and hoping for a little dead weight to throw around. All she knows is that now that dead weight is available to her should she find herself in need of it soon and she won't have to put the extra effort into cold-cocking the other redhead first.
"Hmm... " Dropping down into a roll and then dusting herself off upon completing the maneuver, she taps the end of one shoe on the ground testingly, as if priming it and shifting her foot around in her boot to make sure this will be a good solid kick, and then she tries for a roundhouse, searching out the mercenary-terrorist's kidney.

Indeed, Duck flying at him in such an inane fashion catches Rolento off-guard, and he is struck despite an attempt to move away. But he rapidly rolls backwards in a tight ball, cleanly missed by the attempted kick from Zaki. Before suddenly slamming his weapon into the ground and then launching himself towards her, letting out a loud snarl and arching his weapon overhead anew. The attempt is to smack her with the baton right in the chest, with rather bone-snapping force. It seems he's not going to relent on her until she goes down. How chivalrous; At least Duck will have some time to hopefully double-team him off!

Stike! Duck bounces right off Rolento after striking him and he lands in a handstand in which he raises a hand and holds it out to give the militant the middle finger. "How is that for D grade?" he says with a bit of a of a smug look on his face. Yeah, good job dopey. You knocked out a girl that is still relatively new. Of course it is yet to be seen if he is going to get knocked down a few pegs at this point. He balances on both hands again and he pushes off them to launch himself forward yet again, twirling about in mid air and swinging a leg around to axe-kick to slam his heel on Rolento's head. "Don't you know that shit is out of style!?"

At a pretty ludicrous speed, Zaki wraps her chain around both wrists and raises them in front of her chest, in effect binding herself but also doing a good job of helping her fend off Rolento's own weapon. There's a loud clink and a few sparks, and the gangster is still made to stagger back, but she seems for the most part unharmed. And with almost the same speed she unwinds the steel around her forearms and throws it down in favor of reaching out and trying to strangle the man that seems deadset on taking her out first and making her look bad. For one she's hoping his neck is at least a little sore from her earlier kick and for another maybe she can hold him long enough to let Duck get a good shot at him now that he's here to assist.

"I barely felt that." Rolento offhandedly states to Duck. And then he actually shoos him with a hand. Let the big boys play. He certainly doesn't seem staggered or much affected by the impact, which is probably going to ruffle the proverbial feathers even more. Adding insult to injury, Rolento hops forward to avoid the kick. Zaki remains more troublesome, managing to strangle him like a bitch -- rather then assist Duck, Duck let HER get in the shot. This is just wrong. For one, that's Mr. Big's thing. For two, Zaki's on the wrong end. So a vicious kick is offered towards her stomach, trying to knock her backwards with a snarl. "Hah! Is this the best the two of you can manage?! Inconceivable!" He's laughing, hoarsely, a someone manic look likely quite foreboding in his eyes.

There is a fingersnap and the Duck King lands on the foot that was meant for Rolento's head and he balances on it for a moment before sticking his tongue out at the militant. Don't forget the crowd below though. 'Hasslehoff is God' continues to play and soon begin their rendition of Supafuzz's 'I am the King' in order to get the people cheering more. Duck's mohawk almost looked to grow three sizes that day, well not really. It was mostly just the wind making it stand up more than usually. "Hey lady, sorry but I gotta borrow you for a moment." he calls out and he jumps forward and Zaki feels the weight of Duck on her shoulders before he pushes off again and he goes straight at Rolento. "Booga Booga Booga!" he cries out and he attempts to grab the man around the neck while flying by to flip about and spike him right on his head.

Well, at least Zaki doesn't have to worry about the looking bad part so much anymore. She was just able to choke a man twice her size in front of everyone. And on top of that he's not just a man, he's some kind of commando. However she pays for it in spades, a sharp stabbing pain shoots all the way through to her back as she's kicked in the stomach and sent skidding back, nearly doubling over, just enough to give Duck a good launchpad for flipping off and hopefully putting some aerial hurt on their opponent. Understandably, she didn't see this coming though and she's thrown even more off balance by it, left trying to right herself while she squints at Rolento and tries to gather herself.

COMBATSYS: Zaki focuses on her next action.

Rolento is gripped around the neck by Duck, but immediately twists and interjects his baton between the pair. The ensuing twist and snap backwards hopefully disengages the dancer and makes him stagger away, long enough for one final coup d'gras. "Your hesitation has cost you the fight. Ready?" Rolento comments, reaching into his vest. He then pulls out a thoroughly obscene number of knives. All of them are balanced tip-first upon the end of his baton, before with a sudden tension he /flicks/ the entirety of them straight into the air. "GO!" Somehow, all of them clear the roof. Somehow, all of them fall directly towards Zaki. Even if she evaded, even if Duck pushed her out of the way, it's almost as if Rolento knew exactly where she would be. It's possible to avoid it... but such would have to be within the constraints of Rolento's impeccable precision!

That baton ends up causing a good slip up on Duck's part and he never gets the grip he needs and goes sailing past to land on the ledge and almost going over again. He flails his arms a bit and finally rocks back enough to get his footing and he backs up. He turns about as if to yell at Rolento something fierce only to see Zaki in a very bad situation. "Tch, dammit." he mutters through his teeth and he takes off to go rushing towards Rolento's back as he is tossing those knives in hopes the guy is going to be a bit too distracted to do much about it. "Don't you know it isn't nice to pick on girls!?" he shouts and just brings up his leg right between Rolento's legs to nail him in the pillbox. Oh Duck, were you just picking on a girl a moment ago?

There's only one problem with all of that. Zaki is fast with that damn chain. And it sticks to stuff. Like Spiderman. She's got this uncanny knack for physics, and an innate understanding of her own electrical chi to go along with it. Sometimes, when she gets it just right, this allows her to make her chain something of an electromagnet and attract things. But it's not only metallic things. In fact, in most cases, it's her opponent themselves. Most street fighters don't use weapons, after all.
What she first does here though is demonstrate the magnetic properties of her chain by snatching the majority of Rolento's knives down out of the air with it, swinging it somewhat wilding and lashing it about. But then in an attempt to prove the only part of Rolento's earlier assessment she liked to be correct, she sends it shooting out toward his chest, and should she hit with it, he's going to find that it doesn't just bounce off. It'll pull him toward her when she starts dragging him over like a dog on a leash, and she intends to aim him in such a way that his own knives get to stab him in the back. Oh and, Duck can probably get something out of this too. Kick him in the ass, man. "Goddamn! Knives and grenades it just never ends with this guy! If he blows up the stadium at the end... I swear."

Grasped in the chest, Rolento spreads his stance and is indeed yanked forward a fair amount. He slides with a grunt, but doesn't fall forward -- a few knives fall into him, but he manages to break free rather swiftly and with minimal injury. The distraction of his steel rain, and her attempt to capitalize it, lowered her chance of a more decisive strike. Duck looks totally awesome, but doesn't really come close to hitting anything at the moment. "Tch..." Rolento growls, still looking to be thoroughly annoyed. As if he's being nicked down rather then anything else. Only the terrible gash from Zaki's initial strike across his chest truly appears to have stoutly injured him. The rest are bumps, bruises, and red marks where he totally got strangled. "Your tenacity will make it more difficult to deal with the Grade D." He sounds genuinely accusing at Zaki about that...

COMBATSYS: Rolento gains composure.

Missing again might have been problematic, but Duck is a bit relieved since it looks like he doesn't have to worry too much about his partner in the end. In fact he looks pretty damn impressed by it all and he claps his hands while pausing in his assualt for a moment. "Hey not bad at all." he calls out then his brow twitches again when once again called a grade D. "Tch, what do you know? Don't hate me because I got a bigger fanbase than you!" a hop skip and a flip brings him forward landing on his shoulder which her bounces off of and twirls about, his feet lashing out quickly to knock the man off balance.

Zaki collects her chain when all is said and done with a pretty smug look about her. True, all you can really see is the eyes and the brows above them because of the mask but that's more than enough. One can easily imagine her smirk.
"Heheheh... you're looking pretty pissed right now. And I'm sure you already have my next move all mapped out in your head or whatever but, y'know, doesn't seem to me like you felt that one enough. Let's try again!" From a bit closer this time. The girl of spiky crimson hair takes a couple of lunging steps before turning and swinging her chain to build up some centrifugal force, making it whir and whistle in the building tension of the arena and then at what she thinks is the right moment she lets it fly, once more charged with blue and yellow electricity meant to stick and hold Rolento wherever it may hit. And it seems like she may be aiming for the throat this time. If it doesn't stick, maybe she can even get it to wrap around and get in some more strangling. "C'mere!"

"I tire of this engagement. I managed my core objective. Either of you alone have a zero percent chance of combative success." Rolento snorts, seeming to little care now for the fact that the battle might be lost. "This spectacle of a Saturday Night Fight ends now." He actually allows the whip to coil around his neck, fully aware that doing such all but seals his fate this fight. Spreading his stance. electricity sizzling through his body, there's the look of a madman as he attempts to instead yank Zaki towards /him./ He's struck in the side by Duck but barely grunts, despite it being a clean shot to a decidedly vulnerable area. "Mission completed!" Rolento suddenly reaches up and grips a dangling line, breaking free of the whip. And zipping upwards, he drops something which lands, the thud disturbingly solid. A package of C4. 3... 2... 1...

COMBATSYS: Rolento can no longer fight.

Mission accomplished? Damn right it is! "Hah, sucker!" he shouts out as Rolento starts to make his daring escape and he is about to strut his stuff until he hears a thud from not to far off. HIs eyes go wide behind those glasses and the world goes into slow motion like most times a bomb is involved. Feet start moving and Duck King turns to run away. Puffing heavily "Nooooooooooooo!" he screams and ducks down to scoop up the still unconcious Rylee and looks over his shoulder to Zaki. "Ruuuuuuuun!" comes another slow ass shout before he leaps forward right when the ticker hits zero. BOOM! The place goes up like fireworks and the flames almost singe good old Duck King's shorties and hair as he comes off over the edge. Suddenly time returns to normal speed and our dancing fiend finds himself looking down at a place with no safety net. He screams like a girl and his hand shoots out to grab onto the ledge and hold on while Rylee's unconcious body is almost dragging him to the ground. "Ohgodsomeonehelpsheisheavy!"

The thing about tug of war is it's easy to let go and watch the other person fall on their ass. And Zaki is really more fond of doing that than winning in most cases, so here when Rolento tries to pull back she just drops her end and crosses her arms, sideglancing and watching Duck totally freak out and attempt to rescue that girl he beat up earlier.
"Dammit! I knew it! I totally called that shit!" she complains as she starts sprinting for an exit.
Then the place explodes, and there's no sign of her for several minutes after. But when Duck least expects it and is probably just about to give up, she comes around from the other side of the damaged arena casually and holds out her arms. "Dude, just drop her, I got it." Man, physics should be reclassified as magic. She's not a ninja, and she doesn't really look strong enough to catch someone as tall as Rylee when they're limp and heavy like that, but she can still do it, just because she paid special attention in physics class? That's messed up.

The complaining stops when Zaki's voice is heard. He looks down and looks rather confused for a few long moments, but doesn't look a gift horse in the mouth at this point. He lets go of the unconcious wrestler and gives a thumbs up to the people cheering while looking down at them. Hnn, now to get down to himself. But the story of Duck getting to the ground is a story best saved for later. It is a magical journey that ends with Rolento kicking him in the head and causing him to freefall to the ground and leaving a nicely Duck shaped hole in the ground. Or some other variation of it. Tune in next SNF to find out.
