Description: [Katelynn vs. Naerose] Katelynn and Naerose go at it and it's a long drawn out fight, but who will win? And what's with the crazy control room and the strange tentacle like things? [Winner: Naerose]
A fight in the control room? Rather interesting, given that the coordinators have been able to control this whole thing rather well. OK, lousy pun attempts aside, this is where we find one of the next matches happening today, in the control room of the ship. It's a rather strange place to be fighting, but there's more going on here than meets the eye. You see, there are some spots where there's electricity active, and if someone were to get too close to it, they'd be in for a very shocking surprise!
For the time being, Katelynn Molina is already here, in her traditional fighting garb, no less, and warming up for the match by doing some shadow sparring. All the while, she's got her eye on the electricity nearby, wondering if it could help her or hinder her. It all depends on how things go.
How does the witch show up? Well, in red, but that isn't any bit of a surprise. She's in the red hat, round black shades, broom and she's got her usual look. Now how does she show up? She sort of wanders in and looks around, fixes her shades and then fixes her shades.
"Ooooookay. So like the ship is under attack and they're telling people to do this fighitng thing and.. wow, this is really seriously crazy." She nods a few times and leans on her broom, pulls a candy bar out of her hat and starts munching on it.
So why is the witch even here?
"Ugh, I just wanted to see what was going on, but man there is a fight going on even here and.." She checks her card,
"Snap! I'm on this card!"
Just as Katelynn is finishing up with her shadow sparring, she hears that familiar voice from awhile back. She recognizes it almost instantly as Naerose, that red witch who humiliated her good awhile back. Not to mention who got her kidnapped and taken to Shadoloo where she was brainwashed for a short period of time. But regardless of what it is she's infamous for doing to poor Katelynn, the fact remains she doesn't like Naerose one bit. And to find her as her opponent serves as something very convenient for her.
"Looks like it's you and I, today. Except this time, I've come with more practice and experience under my belt," Katelynn says as she looks toward Naerose with a smirk of confidence. "Nonetheless, I still look forward to taking you on in battle."
"Aw man, do you gotta take everything so seriously?" The witch asks and takes this moment to scratch her back with her broom and continue to munch on her candy bar.
"Seriously you gotta relax a bit, and .." The witch trails off while getting to the nutty goodness,
"You know? Nevermind, I guess I'm in a fiesty mood myself." She flashes a grin and adjusts her shades some more,
"So er. . You ever wonder why you're here, doing all this fighting? What kind of tournament this even is and that kind if thing?" The witch stretches a little more and seems perfectly happy to relax.

"Honestly, I don't know what this whole thing is about per se, but I do know that it's helped me a lot in learning how to better my abilities as a Shotokan practitioner, as well as how to better use my abilities to their fullest extent." Katelynn is still acting very serious in contrast to Naerose's actions. She looks up at the witch and says, "Unfortunately, it seems that we have to take one another on today. So let's have at it, shall we?" With that, Katelynn steps into her fighting stance and advances on her opponent.

"Riiight." The witch says and takes another bite of her candy bar, "So like if you get good training I guess you don't particularly care about much else." She shrugs a little, in a still very relaxed posture and sort of lazy look.
"I dunno, I still think you ought to relllllax." She yawns and licks some choclate off of a red painted finger nail and then licking over her red painted lips.
"So err.. seen any good movies lately?" Asks the witch, apparently still not taking the whole thing very seriously.
"Oh right.. a fight." She scratches her chin then shrugs and looks like she's about to leave.
"Lets call it a day and get a cup of Orange juice." She winks over her shades and then does a full broom swing at Katelynn.
"Err ,sorry about this, but I'm kinda busy tonight, I figured it would be a good time to file a complaint about the seriously lacking room service."
COMBATSYS: Katelynn counters Deep Strike from Naerose with Twisty Toss.

Naerose 0/-------/----===|=------\-------\0 Katelynn
Just as Naerose comes at Katelynn with her broom, the Shotokan girl raises her arm to deflect the blow, and then grabs the broom with one hand, drawing Naerose a little closer and grabbing her shoulder with the other hand. With a yell of 'Kiai!' she swiftly twists Naerose to the side while using the force of her chi to propel the witch backwards, which will send her spinning across the room and onto the ground.
Which sends the witch onto her backside and looking a little stunned. Wow, that was crazy.
"Umm geeze that was ugh. Hey do you have like a grudge or something? I mean have we even met before?" The witch seriously looks like she doesn't remember any of the previous fights. Luckily.. She still has some of her candy bar left.
"So.. er.. now what.." she seems to consider that question hard before shrugging and deciding to just launch an all out assault on Katelynn, thrusting out her hand and saying,
"Er okay, screw warmups, En Criento!"
And with that a blast of swirling energy taking on a strange dark chi erupts out of it.
COMBATSYS: Naerose successfully hits Katelynn with End Creation.
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > //////////////////////// ]
Naerose 0/-------/---====|===----\-------\0 Katelynn
As the blast of chi comes at Katelynn, she is fast to get into a defensive stance, ready to block the incoming blast of energy that is heading directly at her. Unfortunately for her, she doesn't realize that she has her timing on her blocking a bit on the off side, and she ends up getting hit by the chi, which sends her staggering backwards a little, causing her to nearly lose her balance.
With that in mind, Katelynn takes a few running steps toward Naerose, and then brings her right foot up and swiftly aims it at the witch's face.
COMBATSYS: Naerose blocks Katelynn's Light Kick.

Naerose 0/-------/--=====|====---\-------\0 Katelynn
As the kick comes in, Naerose shrieks and lifts her broom to deflect the kick off a little, more toward her shoulder. Crazy. She can't just let this keep up. The witch draws deep breaths and decides to try and get some distance from Katelynn, placing a candy bar in her mouth, holding it there so she has her hands free, then of course the control room is doing weird things. Like what, tentacles? She starts swinging her broom around to keep those weird things away and then sees Katelynn,
"W.. . wwwoow," munching on the candybar and reaches into her hat, pulls out can of red bull,
"Take this!" and flings a can at Katelynn while trying to run away from her.
COMBATSYS: Katelynn endures Naerose's Thrown Object.

Naerose 0/-------/--=====|=====--\-------\0 Katelynn
Nice throw, Naerose! That can would really do more than give someone wings. In fact, if it hit Katelynn, she'd be seeing creatures with wings, as in birdies flying around her head with stars as well! But that doesn't exactly happen. Instead, Katelynn catches the can with one hand, and while the impact does make her wish she had a catcher's mitt for something like that, it does do the trick in that it gives her a bit more of a boost in her motivation to return the favor.
With that, Katelynn throws a swift right kick while, at the same time, using her left foot to propel herself forwards through the air at a fast rate of speed. If Naerose doesn't do something fast, something's going to happen!
COMBATSYS: Naerose dodges Katelynn's Missile Kick.
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > ///////////////////// ]
Naerose 0/-------/--=====|=====--\-------\0 Katelynn
And with the running away thing, Naerose totally evades the incoming kick, it's the least she could do because frankly, she doesn't wanna get kicked. She considered it for a long time, in the vein of running like hell and then decided finally that getting kicked was not high on her list of 'to dos' It was infact, low on said list and that instead she would avoid it.
Distancing herself, the witch adjusts her shades and watches Katelynn with a careful sort of stare, the light reflecting off her shades before a creepy sucker thing tries to latch onto her neck. She kick swats it away,
"Man this place is getting more creepy by the moment!"
COMBATSYS: Naerose focuses on her next action.
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > ///////////////////// ]
Naerose 0/-------/--=====|=====--\-------\0 Katelynn
If you think it's getting creepy now, you'd better be ready to get even more creeped out, since Katelynn's just getting warmed up with her fight here. In fact, given how she's had rather lousy luck in this tournament in terms of her fights, she's ready to give it more effort and strategy in hopes of faring a little better this time around.
While Naerose is busy talking to herself, Katelynn is coming directly at her, intending to sock her in the jaw. Her left fist is brought up and swung directly in that direction.
COMBATSYS: Katelynn successfully hits Naerose with Quick Punch.
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > ///////////////////// ]
Naerose 0/-------/=======|=====--\-------\0 Katelynn
Well, that one was a solid flat out hit. But that wasn't gonna keep Naerose from getting hit right in the jaw! No way! She looks around, looks at her broom, she can't throw that. She gulps and looks at Katelynn then draws a deep breath.
"Shoedouken!'
Well it should be Bootdouken, cause Naerose is using not a pair of shoes but a pair of heeled boots.
"Hey, can I have my boots back in a second?"
She gulps, hoping that she didn't just screw something up big time, I mean who wants to go around without no shoes.
COMBATSYS: Katelynn endures Naerose's Large Thrown Object.
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > ///////////////// ]
Naerose 0/-------/=======|=======\-------\1 Katelynn
As soon as the boots come flying at Katelynn, she manages to catch them with both hands. But they do hurt a bit, which is why Katelynn drops them rather quickly. She stumbles backwards a little, shaking the pain from her hands, but fortunately there's no blood, given that they were heeled and all.
But with what Naerose has done, she's opened herself to a projectile response from Katelynn. She brings her right fist back, focuses her chi into it, and then thrusts that power at Naerose in the form of a bluish sphere.
COMBATSYS: Naerose overcomes Energy Fist from Katelynn with Sagitta Major.

Naerose 0/-------/-======|======-\-------\0 Katelynn
At the incoming attack, Naerose raises her finger into the air, summons an icicle and flings the huge thing at Katelynn, through the incoming energy attack and gives a cry of
"Sagitta Major!" As the attack sails she adjusts her shades and her hat then flashes a bit of a grin.
"So heh, can I have my boot back n-" just then part of the control room lashes out at her,
"Aww, what the ..!" she lashes back with her broom, swinging it around at the little energy suckers.
"Drat it!"
COMBATSYS: Katelynn blocks Naerose's Sagitta Major.
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > /////////////// ]
Naerose 0/-------/-======|=======\-------\0 Katelynn
How humiliating that turned out to be. Having your own attack nullified is bad enough, but having it nullified while being countered at the same time is even more humiliating. Fortunately, Katelynn's defensive skills haven't suffered too greatly, since when the counterattack from Naerose comes directly at her, she's fast to raise her arms and block it.
As such, her forearms absorb majority of the damage, and she's barely sent backwards. But she's finding herself a little on the tired side at the moment, which is why she steps back to catch her breath and recover a little.
COMBATSYS: Katelynn gains composure.
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > ///////////////// ]
Naerose 0/-------/-======|=====--\-------\0 Katelynn
Well, Katelynn maybe ready to take a break but that doesn't mean that Naerose wants to take a breather, maybe she wants to keep the whole thing going. She charges forward, she holds up a palm and thrusts it out, letting out a whole bunch of chi at her opponent in a swirling. You've seen this nasty little thing that sort of is aimed to take out some of the *crunch* more candy bar.
"This is really tasty.. Oh, En Criento!"
The funnel closes toward Katelynn.
COMBATSYS: Katelynn parries Naerose's End Creation!
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > ///////////////// ]
Naerose 0/-------/-======|======-\-------\0 Katelynn
You'd have to wonder how Katelynn could pretty much knock away something like that without the slightest hint of a scratch. Yet, she managed to do it by putting her mind to it, or something like that. Either way, Naerose has probably just learned that Katelynn's not one to be taken lightly anymore.
"Let's see how you like this," Katelynn says as she goes down and attempts to deliver a swift foot sweep. But just before the foot strikes, she pauses, and then pivots on the extended leg to bring her other foot around to deliver the actual sweep!

Naerose 1/-------/=======|======-\-------\0 Katelynn
The witch pulls her broom into the way ot the attack, doing her best to deflect it off to the side. Man Katelynn has become serious. Yep, Naerose remembers her, much like she remembers every opponent who ever gave her a really ig hard time. That was crazy painful even when it
Even when it didn't hit hard on! She can't believe it was aimed to actually hit her like that. It was really not what she wanted to experience here.
"Weew, I think I'm gonna take a breather." She drops down onto her bottom after deflecting the last attack and wiping some sweat from her forehead and fanning herself with her hat. MAN she has terrible hat hair.
"I mean, this whole fighitng thing.."
COMBATSYS: Naerose gains composure.
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > ///////////////// ]
Naerose 0/-------/-======|======-\-------\0 Katelynn
Hat hair is going to be the least of the worries that Naerose will have to deal with right now. Katelynn saw that her attack didn't succeed as she hoped it would, but it still got Naerose's attention. And the way Naerose is just sitting there, she's left herself as a very open target for Katelynn. Which is why she runs over toward the seated witch and attempts to grab her by the shoulders.
COMBATSYS: Katelynn successfully hits Naerose with Quick Throw.
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > ////////////////// ]
Naerose 1/-------/=======|=======\-------\0 Katelynn
When she's got Naerose by the shoulders, she draws the witch closer and does a backwards roll before throwing the witch off of her with the help of her foot. Looks like someone's been watching the methods of Ken and Ryu a bit!
Well not completely wide opened, but close enough that it means she's gonna get hit. She's totally like, Waaaaah! as she is grabbed by the shoulders and she gets rollled around. Wow, she totally never fought Ken or Ryu before, but she's pretty sure now that she wouldn't want to. Actually come to think of it, generally she just likes free stuff. Speaking of, her candy bar is left behind. Crap.
"Uuuhg, I'm dizzy. .Oh forget it, take this!" she flings a flurry of darts through the air Katelynn way.
"Sagitta Minor!" the darts peppering the air and everyting they hit
COMBATSYS: Katelynn blocks Naerose's Sagitta Minor.
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > //////////////// ]
Naerose 1/------=/=======|=======\-------\1 Katelynn
Those darts could easily hurt someone if they hit them. And they do hurt Katelynn, except it's not as painful as she thought it would be. Namely because getting pricked in the forearms as opposed to someplace else (and no, not those places you perverts!) doesn't hurt as much. It leaves her a little drained, but at least she's still going.
Without waiting to do or say anything else, Katelynn pushes off of some nondescript control panel and jumps at Naerose, attempting to hit her with a rather hard kick.
COMBATSYS: Naerose parries Katelynn's Heavy Kick!

Naerose 1/-----==/=======|=======\-------\1 Katelynn
As the kick comes in, Naerose decides now would be a good time to try and keep those crazy tentacles away from herself and so she uses her broom to bat aside the incoming energy drainers and the kick all in one blow, but then she lets the broom go. Seriously she lets it go.
"This is gonna be awesome, " states the witch as she draws back, fixes her shades, a glow starting to grow in both of her hands.
"Watch me now!" She says with a wink over the rim of the shades, putting her hands together and tossing a much cooler than a Kamehameha style .. . . kamehameha ._. at Katelynn.
"En Criento EN!" she cries with feeling and thrusts the torrent at her opponent.
COMBATSYS: Naerose successfully hits Katelynn with End Creation End EX.

Naerose 0/-------/-------|=======\===----\1 Katelynn
Well, that didn't go over all that well. Despite Katelynn's best effort to endure that attack, it totally backfired on her. Leaving her staggering again, and crashing into the nearby control panel, which really hurts even more. She comes away rubbing her back, and then turns her gaze to look at Naerose.
She doesn't do or say anything, though. Instead, she keeps a close eye on her opponent, awaiting her next move intently.
COMBATSYS: Katelynn focuses on her next action.
[ \\\\\\\\\\\\\ < > /////////// ]
Naerose 0/-------/-------|=======\===----\1 Katelynn
Okay, so Katelynn isn't attacking right off, she's getting ready for something big though and Naerose knows what that means. She's taken enough big attacks to know what it looks like when someone prepares for one. It looks like Katelynn does. So what is a witch to do, oh what is a witch to do.. She has to try and bring this to some sort of a conclusion.. But maybe she doesn't feel like she can end this right here, maybe, just maybe she needs a little luck.
"Look, ah, I don't wanna get hurt, really, that's what motivates me, so don't take this personal, but.. " she holds out her palm, yeah, you've seen this before.
"En Criento!"
A burst of swirling chi goes flying at her opponent.
COMBATSYS: Katelynn interrupts End Creation from Naerose with Palm Blaster.
[ \\\\\\\\\ < > /////// ]
Naerose 0/-------/----===|=======\=====--\1 Katelynn
How does Katelynn manage to counter against an attack like that? By taking a darn good deal of damage in the process, that's how! She is stricken by the attack, but while doing so, she manages to get down and thrust a chi-enhanced palm strike at Naerose's stomach. It should send her backwards a little, but the damage still has been done. Katelynn is pretty badly injured and is not likely to last much longer.
Getting palmed in the gut sends Naerose back, stumbling and picking up her broom. Also she's only got one boot on. There is a moment where she sort of whines but then steals herself, reaches into her hat and pulls out a five hour energy shot. It wasn't quite her preference, not enough sugar, but all the same she BITES the top off, yea, she needs a pick me up.
*gluggluglug*
"Man this is nuts!" She says and wipes her mouth before flinging her wrist at Katelynn with a bunch of darts of chi coming at her. . again.
"Sagitta Minor!"
COMBATSYS: Naerose successfully hits Katelynn with Sagitta Minor.

Naerose 0/-------/---====|=======\=======\1 Katelynn
There's no way the energy is going to miss Katelynn. She's hit rather hard and, unfortunately, it's a pretty hard hit indeed. Katelynn staggers over to one wall and attempts to balance herself, but her legs are turning into jelly and her eyes are barely able to stay open. She staggers forward and drops to one knee, her head lowering a little. In a moment, she'll probably be facedown on the floor.
Or will she?
All of a sudden, Katelynn looks up with her eyes glowing with an unreal shine, and then she rushes directly at Naerose, attempting to deliver a swiftly coordinated sequence of attacks based off the famous 'kata' system seen in many martial arts. The thing here is that it's been very carefully choreographed and created so that it can only be used when the time is right, but if done right, it does a lot of damage.
COMBATSYS: Katelynn can no longer fight.

Yeah, it does a lot of damage, and thats no joke. She only just manages to cover it with her broom and even then. . her heel digs into the ground, her other foot has no boot. She grits her teeth, she lets out a little cry. . .she's like snap! And then and then.
She literally runs the hell away,
"Forget this, I am so getting out of here," The witch finds a candy bar, mostly eaten, shoves it in her mouth, grabs her boot, her broom and runs out the nearest door. And imagine. . her night maybe just beginning.
And she runs away.
Even as Katelynn lies face down on the ground, she still manages to look up at her opponent running away. A slight smirk forms on her face as she barely manages to get into a kneeling position. Despite the fact she was beaten yet again, she found herself using a more detailed strategy this time, and it's one that she'd learned through her many fights against her opponents, Naerose included.
"You have taught me well yet again," She mutters with a slight smile, despite the fact her mouth and nose are bleeding, her right eye is swollen shut, and she's feeling like she just got hit by a car... OK, one that was left in gear and began rolling down a very small embankment. But again, life has proven to be a great teacher to Katelynn...
