Description: Guile and Cammy race on an obstacle course, battle across ropes and tires and barbed wire, and decide the match in the only way civilized people should: mud wrestling! (Winner: Cammy)
Welcome to Kansas, the state that has been scientifically proven to be flatter than a pancake.
That's pretty much all it's got going for it if you ask most people.
Of course anybody who really cares a whole lot about Kansas will note that it's the state right smack dab in the middle of the United States of America, which is bound to mean something. It's also the land of Dorothy, but admittedly she was so bored of Kansas that she halucinated some magical land populated mostly by midgets.
But that's not what we're here for today, today we're here for a fight that's going to bring back the old name Bleeding Kansas! The SNF crew has already set themselves up surrounding an exceptionally difficult obstacle course that was erected specificly for the purpose of tonight's match up. There's plenty of tires to run through, walls to climb, razor wire to go under, pits to swing across on ropes, the whole works. This is the sort of training course that's making some of the recent recruits uncomfortable.
Of course those recruits aren't the one's running this course, that honor is reserved for two of the world's top fighters currently enlisted in any country's military. Guile has himself set up near the starting line in his usual gear, stretching out his arms and legs as he waits for things to get started.
With her long blonde braids, Cammy might be mistaken for a farm girl around here, save for the scar across her face... and the distinctly militaristic outfit helps dispel any such illusion. She eyes the course as she paces along it, and walkes towards the starting line. She interlaces her fingers, stretching her arms out as she comes to stop and pop her knuckles.
She grins easily. It's been a long while since she's seen Guile, and she thinks well of him... even though she ran out on him more often than not in Thailand. "Hey. Been some time. How's it going?", she says cheerfully, clearly having lightened up since her Asiatic adventure.
She turns to look across the obstacle course. "This is what they put recruits through in America?", she adds with a slightly dismissive tone, hands on her hips. "Huh."
If this match had occured just after Thailand, Guile would probably be giving Cammy some speech about how you don't run off on your allies and on and on about his AMERICAN values. Of course there's been plenty of time for him to calm down, and even if Thailand is a bit of a sore spot for the man, he's had enough happening since then to let it just be water under the bridge.
Instead he straightens up from his stretching position, pulls his comb up out of his pocket and brings it up through his hair to straighten it back out. Smiles are never very easy for a serious man like Guile, but there's a small hint of one on his stoney face, "This isn't quite the same as most recruits go through. Normally they get something shorter and with fewer challenges. The SNF people set this up so that it wouldn't just be a really short match where all you'd need to do is start out running me."
With the two fighters up near the starting line, the referee (who won't really do much more than start the race and call out the winner), walks over. "Would the challengers please step up to the starting line and get ready." With that said Guile takes the few steps needed to get up to the starting line and pulls into a slightly more prepared looking position, but certainly not a runner's crouch.

"Really? Huh." But then, Cammy passed all this and has always been in the deep end as far as training goes. Whether in Shadaloo or Delta Red, her training has generally been far more... harsh. But then, that same scar does attest to that.
Walking over, Cammy sets into a starting position as well, bracing her leg down as she crouches. "Well, I'll try not to outpace you too much. I'm sure they want something more interesting than that.", she says with a cocky grin, but then focuses as the count goes off.
"On your mark... get set... ready... GO!"
Sprinting towards the lines, Cammy tries to pull ahead of Guile immediately, leaning forward to try and rush through then at an angle without slowing down too much. Of course, the tires do limit her gait, but she tries to immediately pull ahead of the American fighter with a blurred motion, so that she can get the advantage on dirty tricks down the road.

As the announcer calls for the start of the race, Guile's already expecting for Cammy to be off like a flash. The girl's got speed that the Vigilante knows he would only really have a chance of matching in a fighter jet, at least outside of short chi-propelled bursts. If this were a real race, there'd be no point to even trying.
But regardless of his less than stellar speed, the way he rushes off the starting line is enough to keep Cammy from grabbing too much of a lead right off the start, and is rather impressive given the man's bulkier frame, getting a fair distance into the starting straight away before reaching down to grab hold of the rope lining the edge of the course and yanking it with all his force, tugging the peg near the start line up out of the ground before he swings it the whole mess around aimed right for Cammy's legs, hoping to tangle her up in these first few moments.

Guile 0/-------/-------|=------\-------\0 Cammy
With her rush, Cammy doesn't pay so much attention to Guile's moves, and does manage to stumble as she falls forward, her legs suddenly thumped. As she stumbles, though, she handplants, and then goes to yank the line with her legs and try and yank him off his feet before he has enough sense to let go. Or, perhaps, just off-balance.
But she doesn't let herself slow down /too/ much, flipping to her feet as she eyes him over her shoulder for a moment. She's only just ahead, and so she might have to quickly take a more direct means towards halting Guile's rapid advance.

Guile 0/-------/------=|=------\-------\0 Cammy
It almost seems as if Guile's expecting something like this as Cammy starts to yank on the line. Rather than let go or get knocked off his feet, the soldier instead lets the force of the attack start pulling him forward, even if it does put an uncomfortable amount of force on shoulders. After a few short moments of this extra propulsion, Guile releases the rope and puts even more force to his forward motion as he kicks off the ground and starts flying out across the open area, bringing his knee up out in front of him as he starts to overtake the normally faster woman with the combination of her attempt to throw him off and his own chi propulsion, aiming to slam her right in the back.

Cammy tries to turn away in time, but gets nailed by the knee, stumbling back. She winces, and then says, "So much for the race!", as she falls into a crouch. Immediately, she reverses momentum as she tries to catch Guile and send him amongst the tires once more with...
"Cannon Spike!"
Lashing out with her psi-infused high kick, she launches upward with her hand, trying to nail Guile. The purpose of the attack is twofold, though. First, she intends to hit Guile, and use him to bounce off on top of the climbing platform beyond the tires. There's more than one way to try and keep ahead, after all!

The strikes comes in on Guile with dead on aim, smacking dead on with his chest, but rather than take a fall, the soldier just seems to rock back slightly, letting almost all the force of the strike be brushed off like it was nothing. This also has the added advantage of preventing his opponent from springing off of him quite the same as she was probably hoping. In a flash his arms snap up to clasp around Cammy's waist before he launches himself up into the air, pulling her back first across his shoulder before he comes back down to earth, sending the whole force of it against her spine.

Though she's caught out of the air, Cammy manages to get her hands under her, taking the impact on her gauntlets before flipping back to her feet. "...", she stares at Guile, frustrated that her attack was so... ineffectual. It seems no matter what she does, she has a hard time finding a weak spot on him. But she exhales softly, trying to gain the determination to shake off the pain and fight on. With a swipe of her hand as she rises, Psycho Power starts to curl up around her, the light reflected in her blue eyes. She may not like what Shadaloo made of her, but at moments like this, their gifts are still useful.
Now behind Guile, she hops towards him, trying to catch his head with her trademark straddle... so as to flip him over her head and get enough time to make that wall jump again. After all, for a fighter like her, there's no need to bother with climbing. Here's hoping his wife doesn't mind too much...

Guile 0/-------/=======|=======\-------\0 Cammy
After having caught Cammy's attack with so little effort, Guile had been pretty much just expecting her to get trapped in his grasp and take the full force, giving him time enough to get up the platform. That, however, isn't the option as he quickly finds his face trapped in a situation a less dedicated man might actually enjoy... although even they would stop being so excited about it as they got slammed down into the ground.
This is certainly a setback, but Guile's up on his feet with admirable speed, grabbing hold of a tire in one hand and then hauling both himself and the heavy rubber object up with him in an impressive pull up, and with an impressive amount of speed. As he gets himself just barely up over the edge, he brings the tire up and sends it flying at Cammy, hoping to bowl her over while he tries to get the rest of the way up.

Cammy springs away from the attack, hanging in midair over the sudden drop before catching the rope over the expanse. She flips over and then atop it, balancing... and then starts to bolt away, trying to get into a position where she might nail Guile on his way over. She wouldn't be so nasty to cut the rope - probably - but the compromising position might give her an advantage.
She looks back, calling out, "C'mon, pick up the pace!" Granted, he isn't /too/ far behind. "Hut hut and all that, right?", she says as she nears the other side.

There may not be any retaliation at this point, but it's far from a clear shot across the open air at the end of the platform, with Cammy balanced up top of the pole the ropes are hanging from. Not exactly the best situation, but if there's one thing people often underestimate about Guile, it's his ability to manuever up off the ground. In a flash he's charging across the platform, launching himself up into the air straight for Cammy before suddenly a small burst of chi propels him up and around backward, bringing his leg in for the top her head and preparing to kick off that to get to the other side.

Cammy puts on an extra burst of speed, and she becomes a green blur as she practically vanishes, avoiding the attack as she spins around to face the airborne commando. As she does so, she brings her fist around, and it flows in an arc of blue-white light as she tries to pound Guile out of the air before he can right himself. Still, she is committing herself a fair deal by attacking on a rope, and so the move isn't quite as smooth as it might normally be. Still, the powerful impact it carries isn't diminished in the least. "Yah!"

Guile 1/------=/=======|======-\-------\0 Cammy
By the time Cammy manages to start back in on Guile, he's already beginning to pull himself back into a better position, his hands cocking back toward the side and bursting out with chi before the inevitable counter assault. But even Guile doesn't seem to have quite what it takes in the air to get himself brought around and charged up nearly as fast as he would need to against Cammy's demon speed. Just as his hands are starting to pull together in his signature maneuver, the former doll's kick comes slamming into him and sending him crashing down into the muddy ditch beneath the rope setup, sinking a good portion of him in nearly half a foot.
And with that, Cammy tenses, crouching, and backflips to the other side of the rope bridge, landing on the rise. Behind her - onward along the course - is the barbed wire, which has significantly nastier implications in a fight. She looks down, apparently true to her word in that she doesn't immediately hop on to the next set. Instead, she focuses on trying to work out Guile's movements, and prepare some plan for the stretch ahead. Besides, if she exhausts herself too quickly, he'll be sure to get the edge on her.

It takes a moment for Guile to pull himself out of the mud, it schlucking quite loudly as he does so. He hasn't been this dirty since Thailand, a fairly thick coat of it covered him from boot to neck, somehow his trademark hairstyle having managed to escape the void with little trouble. His screaming offense has been put on hold as he slowly climbs the rest of the way out of the pit and up onto less sinking land, trying to catch his breath as he notices Cammy not darting off ahead of him. "That was a good one."

Cammy smiles, saying, "Thanks!... but I guess it's just in my nature to run off on my own, you know?" The tone is joking, but what comes next isn't. As soon as Guile makes it up, she tries to grab him into a backdrop of her own so she might flip over him with a swift kick in the gut and make her way amongst the barbed wire unhindered... for a second or two, at least.

As Cammy lunges in for the attack, Guile doesn't seem to move an inch, simply standing his ground as Cammy hefts him up and pulls him into a backdrop. The gutshot follow up once more takes him full on, almost doubling him over, but before she can even start back on her path, the soldier cocks back his fist and sends it flying forward, right for Cammy's head like a sledgehammer.

Bringing up her arm, Cammy blocks the attack straight on, but rather than a simple impact, there's a flash of psycho power. The azure light creates a pressure that shoves the two fighters apart, and she narrows her eyes. She exhales in relief, and then hops forward, going into a roll. Tucking in, she tries to grab Guile and reverse her momentum, and carry him off the platform and down, down, where she can footplant him into the dirt, and hard. She certainly isn't the same girl he fought in the jungle. The determination is similar, the passion that fueled is entirely different. "Heeeeyah!"

Guile 1/----===/=======|=====--\-------\0 Cammy
It seems at the moment this so called race has just devolved into a straight up brawl. Finding his attempt to send the former Killer Bee sprawling with a power punch not only intercepted by completely forced back is a fairly demoralizing blow. But he's been down plenty enough times that it's certainly not enough to put him out of the match. He finds himself snared around the middle as the strike comes in, pulled in and thrown down onto the ground, but the last footplant doesn't even touch him as he rolls out to the side with a last minute burst of energy.
From this position he pushes back up into a crouch before immediately launching himself up into the air, sending his chi-sheathed boot flying up toward Cammy's chin, dropping back to the ground and starting the process over two more times, each impressive revolution seeming to carry more force aimed right for her jawline, the final one even launching a good few feet even higher into the air, all aiming to send her sprawling.

Cammy weaves from side to side in a blur, her pigtails dancing with the motion, and then ducks under the attack, backed up against the barbed wire. This kind of speed is hard on her frame, as her psycho power pushes her well beyond the limits of even her impressive frame. As Guile throws the last uppercut, she lunges with an upward kick, trying to plant her boot off him. Her intent is to use the recoil to roll under the first obstacle, so she might start once again on the course. They are moving along it, but the fight... has rather delayed things.

The kick comes in fast as Guile's rising back up from the ground, one hand in his pocket, but his muscles simply tense up as it flies in, the whole strike seeming almost as if it had hit solid steel rather than flesh. There's a faint grin spreading across the soldier's lips as she starts to kick off, his hand flying up and out of his pocket, his trademark comb in hand as he swings it back down to slam the former killer bee right in the back of the head.

Cammy dives under the barbed wire barricade, rolling as the comb swipes behind her. She looks at Guile from the other side of the fence as she rises, and then takes the moment to continue on through the course, sliding under another line of fence as she tries to put the speed on and keep ahead of Guile. She's in a much better position now, and she looks over her shoulder. "I'm not going to wait for you again!", she says as she flees onward.

Things certainly aren't working out for Guile ever since that damn platform, and the barbed wire doesn't seem much like it's going to bring anything back to normal. He brings the comb back up through his hair once as he sucks in a deep breath, and then dives under the barricade and starts in after his opponent, trying to find some chink in her armor to keep his slower speed from doing him in. Things were easier back in the damn jungle.

The event may very well play to Cammy's strengths. It's a bit easier when Cammy has to come after you and thusly makes herself a target, but when she can just turn tail and maneuver, she's a crafy opponent indeed. Of course, Guile's practical invulnerability keeps her from getting too cocky. As she comes out of the barbed wire jungle, and then slips off as if moving forward, but then ducks to the side, trying to remain hidden. It's a tall order with Guile so focused on her, but she hopes to pull off her little ambush.
Once Guile emerges, she snaps forward out of her ducking position, trying to just grab his leg and then stand up with it, and hopefully smack him down to earth once more as she starts to move towards the swinging ropes.

There's absolutely no good reason why such a poor attempt at an ambush should have succeeded when Guile was so closely watching his opponent. If this were a war, this would be the sort of thing that would forever be an example of poor capability. But after being hammered so much Guile isn't thinking quite as clearly as he should be and the strike goes by without a hitch, full on slamming him down into the ground and knocking some of the wind out of the man.
Even through it all he's a great model for determination, though. He's not built for acrobatics or running fast, this whole situation has him at a complete disadvantage and Cammy doesn't seem to be even remotely bothered by it all and he still gets up and starts rushing after her. With a burst of speed that he shouldn't even be capable of pulling of anymore, he rushes to close the gap until he's barely a foot and a half away. His foot thrusts out with all the force he can manage, trying to slam right into her leg at a side angle and throw it off.

Cammy catches the leg with her hand and she carries it away. There's then another flow of Psycho Power, giving her more than a second wind. By this point, she's looking practically untouched. "Sorry, Guile, but... I've got to make a good showing on my first time back..." She rushes past him, ducking as she gets a little behind him in the race... to burst forward again with another attempt to leapfrog on ahead.
"Spiral Arrow!"
With a burst of energy surrounding her legs, she launches to try and kick Guile towards the rope platform like a twirling human missle, trying to keep moving along the path even as she continues her offensive.

Guile 0/-------/--=====|=======\-------\1 Cammy
Guile seems to have no intention of keeping this race on course at this point, the race has done nothing but cause him to get trashed repeatedly with little hope of bringing him anywhere close to victory. It's one thing to have yourself get beat up in the middle of a desert, it's quite another thing to be losing right in front of people who ordinarily respect you.
The fury at being made a fool in front of these young Army recruits starts to get at Guile, and the burning desire to turn things back around flows through him, lowering into a crouch just as Cammy starts flying in at him and then blasting up into the air in another somersault, his kick finally taking her full across the chin and sending her flying back down the course.
Cammy gets indded thrown past the swinging ropes and into the mud, splashing down. She spins to her feet, whipping the mud about as she gets back up, feeling glad she decided to go with the pants, for a change. Then, she realizes that... her beret is gone. In the mud. Well, she certainly asked for that with her apology. Looks like Guile's pride is never to be underestimated!
She then snaps her her gaze to Guile, and then rises to leap up to one of the ropes. She swings forward, trying to grab Guile with her legs again, and with a variant on her normal frankensteiner, bring him down to the mud once more with her.

The patriotic fury burning within Guile's very soul, the desire not to let down his country by making a disgrace of himself, is certainly one of his strongest powers, pushing him onward with every ounce of energy he has no matter what the price. Already it begins to turn what moments ago seemed like a lost cause into something more. Then as Cammy launches her legs out towards his own, trying to trip him up, it shows itself once again, the soldier popping up out of her grasp like biscuit dough out of its container after whacking it on the counter. Or some not stupid metaphor.
A faint smile crosses his face as his spirit burns brightly. "I hope you weren't expecting it to be over that fast." He lunges in, brings a quick fist in toward Cammy's side to give her something to think about before lunging off toward the rest of the course to swing across the rope to the other side.

Cammy takes the hit on her guard as she slides across the platform. Even through the metal protection, it stings. It's easy to get a few good hits in on him, but keeping him down... is proving to be, as he says, not over so fast. She then follows after, swinging on the ropes as she tries to catch Guile out of midair by the neck - and fling him down towards the pit. It's a chancy move at this point, but she's getting more desperate... and also more aggressive, for better or worse.

Guile 0/-------/-======|=======\==-----\1 Cammy
Guile definately sees the attack coming in, and in another attempt to show off his aerial game, he launches himself off of his rope and cocks his hands off toward either side, fists glowing with chi as he starts to bring them forward, fully intending to let his trademark attack and using the force to send him to the next platform over... of course this doesn't work out like that at all. Once more his game in the air is shown to be seriously lacking tonight as his timing is completely off, Cammy's hands wrap around his neck before sending him flying down in the mud with enough force to send up an impressive pseudo-splash.
Cammy lands down in the mud after. There isn't much obstacle course left, but it might as well be miles away with Guile still standing. She hops towards him, folding her hands to together as her hands blur in a single double-hand blow. She grits her teeth, being pretty exhausted herself at this point, her Psycho Power keeping her going and going like some sort of stuffed commerical bunny.

Guile is pushing himself back up to his feet as Cammy drops down after him, his movements are sloppier than usual as he tries to get back into his normal stance. The punches doesn't come in very fast, but in his currently battered and worn out condition, it's still enough to get past his guard as he tries in vain to get his sluggish arms to move in the path of the attack. Instead it takes him full on in the gut, doubling him over knocking him back a good few feet.
Once more things have stopped going Guile's way, and it's rather questionable if they can be turned around, but he'll give it his all. He darts forward in a rather awkward manner through the mud, ducking in slightly before bringing his fist up toward Cammy's jawline, aiming for a killer uppercut to hopefully send her sprawling.

Cammy raises her gauntlets, and the blow echoes off them... and she bounches back towards the platform. She then flips back up to it, and focuses. This is her moment. To her, this is about trying to make sure she isn't just the Killer Bee anymore. Instead, she's something more, something Vega couldn't ever create.
Mind, the irony of the name of the move she's about to use doesn't escape her, on that note. But... she'll just have to think up a new name for it.
Suddenly, she dives at Guile in a blur, kicking outward towards him as moves far faster than even before. Four flying kicks follow as she bounces about the pit in the space of a second, trying to practically strike Guile from all angles at once. But then, finally, she trucks into a roll, trying to take him for a spin and plant him down with her feet one final time. Or so she hopes.

Guile 1/-======/=======|-------\-------\0 Cammy
Guile's tired. This fight's dragged on for what seems like ages, repeatedly knocking him down in the mud and leaving him all but ineffectual against Cammy's might. He hadn't had this trouble back in Thailand, being out from under Vega's thumb has clearly improved her fighting skills. It's a lot harder to fight a real person than a doll, and perhaps that's what's left Guile at a loss.
But now there's only one thing he really can do in the face of the incoming assault. Stand there and take it. Each strike hits him hard, small cuts forming across his body where they hit in some places, in other places what's sure to turn into a horrible bruise. Then he finds himself slammed down into the mud once again.
Guile can't just stay down, though. Not in front of the country he loves, the people who look up to him. With all the force of will he has left, he pushes himself back up to his feet, and cocks his hands back, hands bursting out with chi as he hurls them forward, bringing it all together into a large disc of the energy that quickly begins to whirl around the man at great speeds, the force of its path actually pulling inward, trying to suck Cammy into he maelstrom and a world of hurt. Then, regardless of the outcome of all that, he drops back down in the mud, completely spent.

Cammy is caught, and spun as she's sucked into the storm of chi, battered, and finally knocked back, crashing down into the mud. For a moment, it might seem there's a DKO in the offing. But then, ponderously, she rises, beret in hand, recovered and filled with mud. Walking past Guile unsteadily, she gives a casual salute before springing up out of the pit. She barely stays on her feet, but focuses. From there, it's the end of the course, and she drops to her knees as she crosses the finish line. She slaps her muddy beret on her head, and she can't help but smile a little. Good. She hasn't lost her touch after all.
COMBATSYS: Cammy has ended the fight here.
