Description:
Sometimes Sada uses her allowance from home to go out on the town! This usually involves her visiting a Kyotoben style okonomiyaki restauraunt, which is actually something of a hole in the wall and not in a very trendy area. Fortunately, she has permission slips, and besides which, the owner used to rent from her family.
She's been in there for nearly forty minutes; she usually doesn't stay more than an hour. She didn't bring her simpering little music-club gang with her, either. Foolish of her!
Yurika is a girl whom is great at gathering data, information and 'the goods'. This is partly because she has stalker-like tendencies, for some people more than others. Such as, say, people who really annoy her. Kurow's given Yurika Kirishima direct orders to 'get along' with her teammates, leaving her to have to be much more devious in manner to extract revenge.
Things have been difficult in the relationship of Yurika and Akira, however. Akira should be well aware of how fond Yurika is, but asking her for help on a manner as personal as her own- And Yurika COMPLYING is pretty much an act of treason.
Her plan hasn't be revealed at all to Akira, unless stated otherwise. She's familiar with a lot of Sada's mannerisms, and as such thinks her idea should go rather flawlessly. "Akira.. Would you like to take a bet?" she asks to her friend. Also if Akira had expressed any worries/concerns to Yurika.. Now would be the time since they're ten minutes early!
Akira gives special care for Yurika for mysterious reasons that are mysterious. It's probably because Yurika is so gosh darned nice, has a brother too except hers is evil, and because Yurika is clearly a Lesbian Pirate from Outer Space. Golly, Akira sure is in a pickle!
Akira is probably pretty oblivious. "Ah?" She says, "A bet?" She is not wearing her motorcycle helmet today for a few reasons. One, she's walking, and two, it'd be a little creepy. As such, her inner super powered strength is not currently unleashed. If more than one tank shows up, she might be in trouble!
Sada can be looked at through the window of the restaurant if you get close; she's got her eyes closed and seems to be slowly eating a glistening tuna roll. It looks really fresh! Maybe she sucked up to the chef. This keeps her out of action for the moment.
She does have that instrument case full of deadly chain at the base of the stool, though. This may complicate matters, especially when she reaches into her school jacket to tug out a small Hello Kitty billfold and start looking through her yen.
Yurika comes to a stop in front of the Okonomiyaki shop just right then- She's dressed in her usual school attire herself, nothing out of the ordinary, and seeing Akira seeming so.. Spaced out, Yurika is simply overcome with emotion. If allowed, she'd pull her schoolmate over right then and there and draw her into a big hug, "Akira, you are simply so adorable."
There is absolutly no doubt she is a pirate and from space. No idea where the other adjective came from.
The hug is released then, if she had at all, and she raises a gloved finger to her best friend, "I hear that this part of town has been raising in criminals lately. I wonder if you can defeat one in four hits." And she gives her usual mysterious little smile, "If you do, dinner is on me, what do you say?"
Meanwhile inside the shop? Things are going quite smoothly. The bill taken care of, Sada's free to leave with a nice full belly! The plot thickens.
Aliens?! Lesbians?! Pirates?! Everyone knows those don't exist! Especially Lesbians.
Still, Akira is a little embarrassed by Big Hugs Yurika. Normally it's no big deal, but she can't help but wonder--what did she do that was so adorable? She has no ida. "Four hits...?" Akira asks, "That'd be pretty tough, I could give it a shot, though, I guess, if I run into one."
She thinks for a moment, ever economical, "Deal."
The musician, that being Yurika, gives Akira another smile, her cheeks slightly red, "I.. Ah, sorry about that.. But good, it should be interesting, I haven't seen you fight personally in some time, actually. But I'm fairly sure there's a fifty fifty chance you could do it, thugs these days are only a little tougher than they used to be." Like. Ratio .9000. She glances to the shop, and then waves her hand dismissivly, "Could you wait here a moment? I need to... Powder my nose."
She doesn't give Akira a chance to answer, but Yurika makes it clear that it should be a short pause, as she heads into the Okonomiyaki shop, catches sight of Sada, and.. Well, she uses ninja hax to hide her presence. She's quite good at it.
Sada doesn't seem to notice - well... anything. Yurika's Gothic Lolita Magic is certainly potent indeed, or else Sada is simply unaware of ninjitsu techniques so far. She walks out of the shop, about thirty seconds after Yurika ducks inside, holding her instrument case at one side. Her eyes turn slightly to the side at the sight of the nearby Akira...
Isn't her head just at perfect punch/kicking height, Akira?!
COMBATSYS: Sada has started a fight here.

Sada 0/-------/-------|
Akira thinks the following: Powder Her Nose? And then considers. Four strikes? They'd have to be really painful strikes. Still, it seems a little unlikely that she'll run into a thug, ALL OF A SUDDEN, while Yurika is gone. She wonders how long a nose powdering takes? And she didn't even get to say goodbye. Oh well.
She turns her head and sees Sada, within perfect punch/kicking height. And it takes her a moment, but she remembers--being under Kurow's sway--and her henchman...SADA?! Her mouth hangs open briefly--and then she immediately hops up and tries to slam Sada's face into the ground with both fists. How mean!
COMBATSYS: Akira has joined the fight here on the right meter side.

Sada 0/-------/---====|=------\-------\0 Akira
Sada is struck sideways with brutal force. Her eyes glaze slightly and she staggers, feeling her stomach lurch as a bruise forms on the side of her face; a hint of tears come to her eyes when, after the brutal slam, she rises again... to sink down to her knees.
Her shoulders slump, then her head. One hit victory!?
"I, I," Sada begins to say with tears in her voice, before leaning forwards and throwing up into the gutter. How vulgar! But perhaps onlookers will think it suits her. After it's done, she breathes heavily, hair hanging in her eyes.
"I came here... to eat food, like my aunt made for us..." Her hand clenches into a fist. "And whoever you are... you've come here to ruin it for me...!" Then she looks up, eyes blazing through black bangs. "It's unforgiveable--!!"
And then she leaps forwards herself, aiming not at Akira herself but at the other girl's leg. Not both of them, just one... aiming to grasp it with one hand above the knee and the other below. She lets out a screaming kiai, eyes narrowing, and then shoves in two opposite directions with all her strength -- twisting at the last moment, to add injury to... injury!
If, of course, all goes according to plan.

Sada 1/------=/=======|==-----\-------\0 Akira
"You're Sada. You work for Kurow." Akira notes, "And if I defeat you in four strikes, then Yurika has to pay for my dinner." WAS SHE NOT SUPPOSED TO SAY THAT? Well, too late. Of course, perhaps it's just an INNOCENT MISTAKE on Yurika's part. When Sada moves for her leg, Akira aims to stop her thrust with her other foot--and then brings it up and kicks downward--lashing out with her hands mistrike in an attempt to catch Sada's hopefully falling body and slam it around by the upper half back towards the ground. Kathunk! It's an awkward maneuver--and Sada manages to sprain Akira's other leg through her efforts.
Sada goes sprawling to the ground again, and twitches once. "What - what the -"
She then pushes herself up to her elbows, looking increasingly angry even as she pushes herself back towards her dropped instrument case, which fortunately opened on its own. As she stands up, scuffling at the ground with her feet as the chain to her kusarigama rattles, she looks up...
And points the kama at Akira, accusingly. "Are you jealous because he didn't ask you out?!"
COMBATSYS: Sada focuses on her next action.

"What?" Akira glowers, "Are you nuts? I want nothing to do with him!" She thinks this over, and realizes it's a bit of a lie, "That doesn't involve smashing his head into the pavement! He brainwashed me into some psycho powered goon! He's gonna pay for that! And I'm not jealous at all, so don't even say that again!" She does not immediately launch into Sada's loving embrace--her goal is, after all, to take her down in four strikes. And she only has two left! So she has to make the next two count!

Sada 1/------=/=======|==-----\-------\0 Akira
Today's lesson is Akira's a big blabbermouth! Though that's not entirely true, it's just her actual mission was slightly skewed. Yurika isn't worried about it, she's sure in her usual lax manner that things will work out in the end. Besides, who has time to worry when she gets to imagine what could possibly be going on out there. No, Yurika's decided to pass the time by getting herself a cup of tea. Though she decides after the match Akira might get a little hungry. So she ends up leaving a voice message on Akira's cell phone telling her to meet her inside to eat after the match. Because the truth is, whether Akira loses the bet or not, it makes the musician a winner, and as such will pay the bill.
You're a mean one.. Miss Kirishima. o/~
Sada barely heard the thing about Yurika because she got clocked in her head. She stares at Akira as she explains the truth - the nature of Kurow's evil activities. The horrible nature of her boyfriend! It cuts straight to her heart, winning her over to -
"What?!" she says with disbelief, eyes going wide. "Are you insane?! Kurow would never do a thing like that! How COULD he do a thing like that?! Do you think he keeps psychlo powers in a bottle or something?!"
She then whips the side of the kusarigama forwards, the weighted chain flinging around towards Akira's poor leg to try and yank it out from underneath her!

"I'm not insane! I'm not the only person he's done that sort of thing too either. Just talk to Sakura!" Akira jabs a finger at Sada. "He totally made me go all evil and crap!" She is helmetless, but the bet may be guiding her to a more helmet-esque personality. She certainly isn't bein shy and timid like Akira normally is.
So busy pointing is she, that she doesn't notice the chain grabbing at her leg until it's already secured to it. She is dragged down, on her BUTT and skids a few moments. She's caught! She needs those legs! But you think a simple 'handcuff' will defeat her Submission Arts?!
Well probably, she doesn't really use submission arts so much as punching and kickings. That's usually just called 'violence'.
Akira shifts to a hand stand and kicks out with her legs--primarily the one not chained up-- to try and bash Sada repeatedly in the face--bursts of wind erupting around her feet with each consecutive strike! Looks like it's the almighty... DANCING CYCLONE KICK--ON THE FLOOR VERSION!

"Iyaaaaagh!" Sada screams as she brings the chain around to swing towards the dread pirate Akira! The attempt at swinging it forwards, however, doesn't follow through; her luck isn't good, or else she was simply thrown too hard by that brutal fist. She shakes and trembles as she staggers, finally coming to a slouched posture, raising the kama up in a shaking hand.
"Liar!!"
Akira, once she finishes her feet strikes, reaches up and pulls the chain off--it's a little easier because Sada's hand is shaking. Akira is a tough girl! Leader of the Seiyjun crew! But the problem is, she only has four strikes! And if she doesn't take Sada out with this last blow--then she loses. At least technically. "I'm not!" She insists, "But if you don't believe me, that's fine, I'm not going to try to make you. Maybe you'll see for yourself what sort of guy he really is, maybe not..."
She advances forward, "But if you don't believe me..." Heh heh, she thinks, I saw this in a movie once. "Then believe my elbow!" And she lunges forward--slamming it upward with all her might for Sada's chin! It's her signiature technique: GATE ELBOW!!
COMBATSYS: Sada parries Akira's Gate Elbow!

Sada 2/<<<<<<</<<<<<<<|====---\-------\0 Akira
The elbow strikes home with a resounding thwack - a noise almost as if something was breaking. Sada's head? Ha ha! Maybe it really IS a win for Akira...
Until she looks over, and the kama's wooden handle is pressed against her elbow. Sada herself seems to be practically glowing, which is, really, actually not that surprising in this context. "You... little...!!"
She takes a step back, eyes wide as her lips draw back from her teeth. "I'll believe your face when I grind it into the pavement! You're facing me in an open street --" She lets the kama slide out of her hand, spinning it around on the end of the chain and building up speed before slamming it forwards repeatedly with a screaming shriek!

SPLORCH.
Akira is sliced along the chest she gapes in disbelief. Her Gate Elbow...her ultimate technique... it has been defeated by this Kurow flunky! One she KNOWS she has defeated before! She stumbles back as she takes another swipe across her upper body--and then falls backward, breaking through a crate that someone left there for some reason that also gives Sada one thousand extra points.
"Ngghh..." She grunts--lashing reaching into the crate and withdrawing...a large plate of SPICY HOT TURKEY. What was -that- doing in the crate, Akira will never know.
Grabbing it in between her hands she twists around and flings it for Sada's body. "Man!" She complains, "She's not gonna pay for my dinner now..."
COMBATSYS: Akira successfully hits Sada with Large Thrown Object.

That was the turkey of someone's ancestors.
It strikes Sada square in the face, and she takes one step back. "G, ghh... you... you're..."
She takes a deep breath before screaming with the fury of someone on their last legs, "All you care about is your stupid dinner?! You ruined mine!" Which is still in that gutter over there. "You're ruining everything! EAT THIS!"
And then she whips the chain around again, with enough force to send it wrapping around Akira's torso if she doesn't get out of the way. "Nnnghh!!" Sada cries, turning around as she lunges forwards, aiming to haul the other girl right down to the ground with extreme force! Maybe even into THAT GUTTER.

Akira... was unable to defeat Sada with four moves. It took FIVE moves. And she's very upset about this. "Hey! A good dinner is expensive and I haven't been in many fighs because of all of that Shadaloo crap!" She complains, lashing out with her the side of her palm to knock away the chain before it can wrap around her body. "And... And I gave you a turkey!" she points at it--it too, has fallen on the floor.
"Y, you bitch!" Sada screams in annoyance and woe. She looks like she might be near tears! She yanks the chain up closer to her and instead of engaging further, does something which might seem... familiar to Yurika. That is to say: she runs away, swiftly.
