C.Jack - Playing With Dolls

Description: There's a doll in the Harbor! And C.Jack's following orders. That doll's either getting what's coming to her, or going back home .. but which?! And does she make it out alive? Or does she crush Jack?! What awaits within this log! ( PS, CAMMY TOTALLY DIDN'T GET DUMBLEDORE'D



Harbor. Again. Why they always gotta hang out near the water?

Meanwhile, C.Jack's not going to argue they stay in the same place, and with Cammy on one of the docks, she's nearly unmistakable. Although her actions are a bit odder, Feet dangling, waves crashing, the book being thrown away. It's all lost on C.Jack as he looks on.

A heavy boot against the pier might bring attention back to C.Jack. "Hey, doll. That's what they call you right? Dolls? You might want to rethink what you're doing .. The Big Man wants some answers, and wants some closure. You gonna come back... or you gonna stay away from him? Sure you know who I'm talking about.."

The hat's down across his face like usual, and there's a metal bat behind him. "So what's it gonna be ... just hangin' around without a purpose? Cause if not.. you might have a place again." Slamming a fist into his other, C.Jack adds, "And if you don't wanna agree.. we got another place for ya. Heheh." UNDER THE SEAAAA UNDER THE SEEEAAA, DOWN WHERE IT'S WETTER, TOTALLY BETTER, TAKE IT FROM MEEEEE.

Cammy puts her hands against the edge of the dock, and pushing herself up, swings her legs under her like she might be on a balance beam. She turns towards him, tilting her head. "... uh, who are you?" She reaches down to a bag at her side, pulling out her gloves. She folds her arms as the metal plates dangle from one hand as she regards the man skeptically. "I've beaten just about everybody at Shadaloo..." With a slight shake of her head, she smirks, looking slightly away.

With that, she slides one glove on idly, stretching out her fingers as she looks over it to Jack. "... so you must be new. Especially you can think you can bring me back."

Metal plates. Great. Looks like she doesn't travel alone .. well, it'll make it worthwhile, that's for sure. "Name's Cracker Jack.. and I ain't that new .. just a loyal soldier that was looking for a way to get back into the good side of Vega after all the others turned tail and ran."

Facing Cammy, he looks through his hat, despite the small amount of spaces in it, smirking at the thought about it. "So ... you beat evvvveryone else, 'eh? Well. That's somethin'. It'll make this interesting."

As she slides on a glove, looking to him, Jack rips the bat from his back, pointing it towards Cammy. "Eh? ... Well, we'll just have to see about that.. because I don't plan to let you go without a fight." Cracking his knuckles, he starts to move closer, step by step, bat held in one hand still.

Cammy grins a cocky, feline grin. "Well, hopefully you'll have enough teeth left to tell me where he took the other Dolls." She flicks the other glove in the air, and then snaps her hand forward in a punch, sliding into her other guard. Hardly guess how many tens of pounds it weighs from the gesture, she flexes her other hand, looking unconcerned as she doesn't watch Jack directly.

Her finger does to her scar, and then she slides it down as she finally meets Jack's eyes directly. Or, at least, the space where the hat obscures them. "So, where is he?", she says flatly, her faintly bemused tone vanishing.

COMBATSYS: Cammy has started a fight here.

"Well. We'll have to see about that, will we?" She's a feisty one. "Better not hit me too hard." And that's what C.Jack likes to hear! As she flicks her gloves in the air, snapping her hand forth, and readying herself, C.Jack doesn't seem to be paying too much attention to her actions, much like she doesn't with his.

Maybe it's just a trait from Shadaloo.

But as she asks where Vega is, as C.Jack begins to moves forwards, the smirk switches to a grin. "That's the best part.. I don't know, doll, but I'm sure he'll tell me after I bring you back home." Vega? C.Jack doesn't know. Not like he doesn't have a goal.. Cammy? Lucky him for finding her. "But you ain't what I'm really after.. just somethin' I think might be pretttty nice to have." And with that, C.Jack bursts into motion, bringing a fist back before rocketing it towards Cammy. "Better hope you really aren't really different, doll, or you're not going to be walking away!" The fist? It's a strong enough punch, but nothing to write home over.

COMBATSYS: Cammy just-defends C.Jack's Medium Punch!

There's a blur, and Cammy catches the fist with her palm, eyeing Jack forwards. "Good. Then... I don't have to worry about holding back, do I?" With that, she just tries to squeeze the hand and wrench Jack's wrist with a quick motion. It's a simple attack, aimed to slow him down from the start. No need to go all out on a guy like this - or so she reasons.

COMBATSYS: C.Jack Toughs Out Cammy's Fast Throw!!

As Cammy catches the fist with her palm, C.Jack grins, looking to her. "Yeah, good, sounds pretty damn good don't it.. Hehe..." And as she squeezes the hand, wrenching the wrist and aiming to slow him down, C.Jack's had this happy enough, enough that in brawls, he's learned sometimes how to pull through the pain for a moment to move to a better position. The Wrenching may keep Cammy fully occupied as C.Jack pulls back the other fist, moving with her wrenching, and slams it towards her middle.

He? He's just going hard.

Best way to do it, in his vision.

COMBATSYS: Cammy just-defends C.Jack's Strong Kick!

C.Jack           0/-------/-----==|-------\-------\0            Cammy


Cammy doesn't budge. She sees the recklessness coming, the all-out attack coming easily to her tactical insight. Instead, her hand moves, her palm smacking the punch out of the way effortlessly. Quickly, she immediately moves to grab ahold of his arm, and yank him forward into a knee to the gut. It may just be basic CQC, but he's going to have to push her harder to get her to bring out the lightshow.

COMBATSYS: C.Jack interrupts Combo Throw from Cammy with Soccer Ball Kick.

C.Jack           0/-------/--=====|==-----\-------\0            Cammy


Oh, geeze. Cracker Jack watches as the punch is slammed out of the way easily, and in the end, his arm is grabbed a-hold over, yanking him forwards into that knee to the gut .. but in the end, as he's pulled closer, C.Jack doesn't come easily. He brings a foot back, kneeing her away from him before slamming the rest of the foot into her side, and the gamble pays off, because he actually gets through her guard.. something that was seemingly impossible. But that knee really hurt.

He's certainly not done yet.

Kicked, Cammy breaks away, bouncing off with the impact. She holds her side for a moment, and grins. "Nice. But a guy like you isn't getting anywhere with a girl like me, you know." She recovers quickly, though, and stands up straight.
With that, she brings her arm in as a guard as she slips back into the fray, and then goes low, looking to slug Jack right in the solar plexus, hoping she can keep up the pressure... and finally land a solid hit.

COMBATSYS: C.Jack blocks Cammy's Fierce Punch.

To get Through to C.Jack, that'll be the day. He's not one that's easily tossed around, or brute forced around! That's HIS job. So when Cammy breaks away, bouncing off, and then slips back towards him, C.Jack brings his bat up, the guard plate slamming into it with a loud clang. "Well, maybe, but y'see... I don't really think about failing Vega often... and I ain't about to start." As her fist is busy clanging off the bat, C.Jack does a change up, his own fist heading right back towards Cammy's own stomach.

"You'll see!"

COMBATSYS: Cammy blocks C.Jack's Fierce Punch.

C.Jack           0/-------/=======|===----\-------\0            Cammy


Cammy takes the hit on her armguards, though she can feel the impact through them, this time. Nearly rattles her teeth. She hmphs, blowing her spike of a bang aside, and then takes the punch before stepping to the side. With a breath, she concentrates on blocking out the pain, and keeping the rhythm of the fight in her favor. The hurt she's taken isn't so much, and she can start getting her second wind in a bit earlier than most.
With a quick handplant, she drops down, and then sweeps her leg upwards as she tries to give the brawler a little bit of chin music. A bit risky, but there's a lot of pain at the end of that boot, and she can hope the angle throws off his response.

COMBATSYS: C.Jack dodges Cammy's Strong Kick.

C.Jack           0/-------/=======|==-----\-------\0            Cammy


Whatever the reason, Cracker Jack doesn't seem to be all that effected in just waiting for the attack to come to him. As the punch strikes the guards, C.Jack grins and bears it, shaking his head. "How long do you think we can keep this up? Don't know about you .. but I gotta lot left to give." And with the handplant, C.Jack watches her drop down, sweeping a leg towards his chin. Dashing forwards, C.Jack sidesteps the kick, and then heads in with one of his own, thrusting it forwards, towards her as she rises.

"Some fancy moves you have there, but it's not like I haven't seen them already... well, maybe not enough. Nice legs." And here comes the kick!

COMBATSYS: Cammy blocks C.Jack's Medium Kick.

Cammy blocks the hit, and hms softly. She steps back, gauging him for a moment. "You're better than I expected." She slips her thumb past her chin. "But. I haven't even gotten started yet."

With that, she hops forward, trying to catch her legs about the Cracker's head. "Thanks for the compliment... here's a closer look!" With that, she whips back, trying to take the thug for a ride down to the docks between her thighs. Unfortunately for him, she happens to be wearing pants for a change.

COMBATSYS: Cammy successfully hits C.Jack with Frankensteiner.

As Cammy gages C.Jack, that's about it. Because apparently, she hasn't even gotten started. Which is bad for C.Jack, because he's not near her level of ability.. but he'll sure as heck try to keep up. As She grabs him with her legs, catching him, and then whips him back, taking him on a ride STRAIGHT FOR THE DOCKS.

Ow. That was still worth it to get closer.

"Yeouch .. so you ain't so hopeless as I thought. And here I started to thing the dolls were just overglorified..." He comments, before cracking his neck. "Better get down to it then!" Getting to his feet, and cracking his knuckles afterwards, C.Jack brings back a single, heavy punch .. and then slams it towards Cammy with all of his might, slamming it forth with all his momentum and his strength. A PUNCH TO END ALL PUNCHES.

COMBATSYS: C.Jack successfully hits Cammy with Final Punch.

C.Jack           1/---====/=======|======-\-------\0            Cammy


Cammy tries to slip away, but gets blown back, tumbling a bit and rolling before sliding to a halt. She narrows her eyes, flicking them up as she rights herself. Ow. Can't do that again. She takes a breath, and then bows her head slightly, getting her breath back.

Okay. So she got a bit cocky. She's going to have to watch herself, and make the next couple of hits count. Because otherwise... this could get nasty. Bringing her fists up, she lets her body relax, lets the tension go out.

"What do you know about the other Dolls?"

COMBATSYS: Cammy focuses on her next action.

[            \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  //////////////////            ]
C.Jack           1/---====/=======|======-\-------\0            Cammy


As Cammy's struck head on, C.Jack grins, the piston of a punch being the one he always did rely upon. "Hehehe... What do I know about the other dolls? think I'm going to just ANSWER that?" Cracker Jack asks of her, grinning, and shaking his head, hat still down.

"Guess you're a good chooser. The other dolls? Vega's got 'em. Or they're gone. Haven't seen any, but I'll tell you, I'm after one. And it ain't you. Not that it'll matter.. your free will has gotta been grating on his nerves. I'm here to end it."

Looking about, C.Jack notices what can only be described as 'poorly placed objects', a fish bucket in the harbor.. well, hell, he'll use it. "Batter up." He jokes, before following through, and sending the object slamming towards the doll.

COMBATSYS: C.Jack successfully hits Cammy with Thrown Object.
- Power hit! -

C.Jack           1/---====/=======|=======\-------\1            Cammy


Cammy gets beaned by the bucket, and catches fish guts on the head. "... Hey!" She shimmies, and says, "Okay. That's enough. You've earned this." Then, she leaps into the air, throwing out a kick - but then stops short. Nothing but a feint. Instead, she crashes low, and handplants, thrusting off the ground as she bounces back into the air at heightened speed. Becoming a blur, her foot is suddenly wreathed in Psycho Power as she lashes out, trying to blow Jack's hat right off his head.

"CANNON SPIKE!"

COMBATSYS: C.Jack reflects Cannon Spike from Cammy with Home Run King.

[           \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  //////                        ]
C.Jack           0/-------/---====|=======\==-----\1            Cammy


Well, C.Jack's got alot behind him .. so much luck, one of these days, Cracker Jack is going to pay for all his meddling, and love of fighting. But when shall that be?

Cammy's going all out, eh? He earned it? Well, if she says so. "You bet I did.. lay in on me doll!" C.Jack used the bucket as a distraction, readying himself.. and as she bounces into the air, a foot out, C.Jack can see it.

It's a curve ball.

Then she crashes low, thrusting forth with psycho power. As she lashes out, Cracker Jack has literal moments before she's into him, and there's a ball heading right for his head. Or more correctly, there's a doll whose feet is wrapped in death coming at his hat. The winds brush.

And Cracker Jack swings upwards, sending Cammy, and her feet, upwards, almost straight up, before she comes back down, C.Jack swinging hard and strong, with every fiber of his BEING, his muscles straining as he puts everything he's got into it .. and hits her as hard as possible.

He's shooting for out of the park here... even its ruining his chance at getting her back for Vega.

Well, Cammy wasn't expecting much of the new Shadaloo agent. It's been too long since she's had to fight one, and maybe she's a bit rusty. And who really expects Psycho Power to actually get 'hit' with a baseball bat? Whatever the excuse, she isn't winning this one.

But Vega isn't going to be greeting her when she wakes up.

Cammy goes flying, off over the docks... and into that choppy water mentioned before, vanishing almost instantly under those rough waves. It may be a home run, but that always means somebody else gets the ball.

.. Ah hell.

As Cammy goes flying, Cracker Jack watches as Cammy is launched into the waves .. and goes down like that book from before. Ah hell. Well, if she's not his, Vega will be happy to hear she 'might' be dead.

"Well, guess she chose the second option." Cracker Jack muses to himself, swinging the bat behind him. "Never expected her to go through with it... but hell, she's sure a doll alright.. blasted things always so much trouble."

Secrets safe with the defeated, after all.

COMBATSYS: C.Jack has left the fight here.
