Description: Iincyo comes upon Adira, apparently mugging someone in the middle of the Mall. They fight. But is everything as it seems?
The Mall, on a weekend, is almost always a riot of sound and activity. Naturally, because there are something like five schools in Southtown in the immediate area and only ONE mall. SO yeah. There are approximately fifteen million teenagers in here, all roaming around and chatting. The dull roar, however, as far as the Chairperson is concerned, has just been broken by a minor riot. Whenever she comes in, it's just on the tail end of what can only be considered to have been a fight.
Visually, at least, it looks that way, with Adira's five-six frame in her sleeveless top and BDU-styled pants, with her booted right foot firmly planted on some poor beaten-up boy's butt.
Whatever the context, it's clear that Adira was the winner of this fight, with a circle of people surrounding her--shouting, cheering, booing, betting. Was it a staged fight? A match of some sorts? No one can tell. But what Iincyo sees is this:
Adira bending down and plucking a wallet from the boy's hand. It looks... awfully suspicious! Maybe she should do something about it?!? Doesn't look like anyone -else- wants to...
The Mall. Chairperson was having a nice relaxing trip to the Mall to buy a few things for herself and her parents. It was all she could do. And the dull roar outside of the Mall was normal. But it wasn't bothersome, the Mall usually had some sort of activity.
Except for when she opens the door, she she's something unlike a crowd of shoppers here and there. Dressed in something else than her normal jacket, she is actually wearing a skirt. And a shirt .. and the jacket is /on/ her this time. Chairperson may look a slight bit different.
And there she is, standing on a boy.. and there's a circle of people around her. IIncyo can already guess. The woman, girl, she sees infront of her, wearing boots, short hair, punkish, leather clothing.
Gedo pops into mind. And with the circle, she can guess she's certainly not from Taiyo.. or from Seijyun. Probably not Pacific. Neither dress like /that/. And then Adira goes for the money. That's when, as she was walking by minding her own business, she stops that. "Unless that was yours," She starts up, slipping through the crowd. Short, frail, and not intimidating at all, Chairperson still pulls herself up, to seem like something more.
"Whatever this was .. break it up and return what you're taking from him!" She asks of Adira, pointedly. "I haven't seen you before.. but.... You're from Gedo.. aren't you? And stealing." Why is she not surprised.
Adira's head slowly rotates around, even as she's casually sliding the unconscious boy into the crowd. Her manner sure doesn't seem heroic, as she flips the wallet up, then catches it, looking inordinatly pleased with herself... until Iincyo speaks up.
"Haaaaah?" It's that long, drawn out 'huh' that is often heard in use by Yakuza thugs in anime... and she finishes slipping the wallet into a thigh pocket on her BDU's before she answers. "You seem to be well-informed... no, it wasn't mine," she says, shortly, apparently confirming Iincyo's suspicions. She smiles, challengingly.
"And you know I'm from Gedo... you must be well-informed... well..." she turns to face the Chairperson. Really, Adira isn't all that imposing in terms of size, either. But those booted feet squeak on the floor as she assumes a fighting stance, her arms up, hands curled into loose fists.
"You think you're gonna do something about it?" she asks, tartly, with a loose, confident smirk on her lips. Really. I mean, she -could- just explain... but her blood's up and that guy wasn't hardly a challenge at all...
Chairperson doesn't move a muscle as she waits for Adira's response.. which is longer than she wants it. Adira goes about with her own devices before she gets her attention, finally a 'huuuuh' not the most articulate answer that Iincyo was looking for.
As she slides the wallet into her own safe pants, Adria gets a thicker glare from Iincyo. It's not something that's nice. If she only had eye lasers, or the like. "It.. wasn't .. yours." She repeats, slowly. So the other girl can understand. And finally, she meets eye to eye, crossing her arms. "I am quite attentive." She answers Adira. It doesn't take a genius to put two and two together. And then Adira moves into a fighting stance, hands curling up.
Chairperson had not expected, honestly, it to go like this. The taunt is not responded too.. fully. "I would prefer to not fight you... but if that's all you're looking for, I'll get that wallet back from you .. and then drag you back to Daigo! I'm sure from what I've heard.. he tries better than this on you."
She's not surprised, she doesn't raise her voice much, and falling back herself, Chairperson sighs.
This was not how it intended to go. her own hightops don't make sounds. They're for movement, mainly. But there's one thing that Chairperson knows when dealing with Gedo. They're 1. Stubborn. 2. They fight ALL THE TIME. Like NINJAS. Even if the ninja comparison was a little bad.. they do believe in strength. "And thank you for noticing ... I'm well informed of much. Now if you only paid more attention." Then she'd know who Iincyo was. And this could be /avoided/.
"Ha.... HAH!" She breaks her stance, running towards Adira.. but for what!? .. Oh.. she's ducking down to grab the girls legs and then ... leap up and spin down to the ground!? "If I can't make you just listen and hand it back ... I'll have to try harder!"

"UNH!" Goddamn persistent kids... well, okay, not like Adira is middle-aged or anything. "Yeah, that's the spirit!" she says, sounding pleased--even as she's taken down -hard- by the Taiyo chairperson, taken by the legs and hurled down to the ground. She bounces back quickly, though, kicking away from Iincyo's grip and then going through a quick back handstand to get back to her feet.
"Heh... so good to find someone I can actually test myself against," she says, as she feints a forward step, then instead uses her powerful legs to launch herself into a high tumble. Her aim is to land on Iincyo's shoulders, with bent legs--and squeeze Iincyo's head between her thighs. And then?
Then she'd flip forward, hurling Iincyo up and over and onto her face.

And then Adira is piledrived. TO THE MAX. No. Actually, as Iincyo comes down, she leaps back. Hah. That wasn't so bad! At all! And then she bounces back, a handstand.. and Iincyo watches as Adira aims to squeeze her head and then hurtle her onto her face.
It's pretty much what happens, too. Except she moves with Adira on accident, and ends up making that face plant /that much more painful/. Shaking herself off as she brings herself to her feet, Chairperson winces. "Test yourself..? Right ... If you want a test.. I'll make it more than just that!" Chairperson cries.
And then her jacket, which is on her, doesn't rustle. Her hair, however blows, as she breathes in. Focusing, readying ..
And tries to see straight once again, after taking such a faceplant. Her chi is focused. Whatever that is!

Really, Adira isn't -bloodthirsty-. She just... likes fighting. So sue her. So do tons of people. At least she's skilled at it. The black-haired girl grins as she faceplants Iincyo; she hops up and back, preparing to counterattack... but there is no counter attack and so Adira doesn't have an attack to counter. Puzzling! Oh, wait, she sees what's going on here...
"Huh... didn't think for a shrimp like you to be a good fighter," she grunts, as she gathers herself. Right. She can't pull any neat tricks like that--so instead she starts moving. Closing the distance with a quick, fluid step, Adira plants her left leg, snapping her right leg around in a high roundhouse kick aimed for Iincyo's temple--
--and then continues with a little hop as she plants her -right- leg and then kicks upwards in a straight thrust kick with her left, a high kick aimed to plant her boot right into Iincyo's chin.
"By the way," she grunts, as she attacks the Chairperson, "Name's Adira... Adira Sen'ou of Gedo... -don't forget it!-"

Adira 0/-------/----===|=======\=------\1 Iincyo
You're fighting the 'pacifist' of fighting kind, Adira. She's honestly not one to keep fighting unless there's a point.. not that she hasn't honestly done quite alot of fighting in the past. Really! It's just how it happens sometimes. the Chairperson merely nods, purple hair still blowing a bit as she mentions about her 'skill' as a fighter. "It isn't expected.. I have heard it quite often.. but that doesn't mean I can't."
That, and her style is .. IMPETUOUS. No. It's based off one of the easier styles to learn.
The left leg snaps forwards, then the right coming, and then a straight thrust.. there's alot of kicking. her arms are brought up, rising, assaults slamming into her, as she prevents the blunt of them.. she won't be able to do that very often. At least. Not for a while.
"Of Gedo.. I won't forget your name, Adira.. but remember mine as well. I can only hope you do. Iincyo of Taiyo High!" Wait, 'Chairperson of Taiyo High'? That's not a name!
"I'll show you something to remember me by as well... HAH! WIND STANCE!" And suddenly she lashes forwards, attempting to assault Adira with a quick palm strike, followed by a lashing kick to her midsection. Nothing fancy!

Adira 0/-------/----===|=======\===----\1 Iincyo
Adira's grin is fierce, fiery. But not -cruel-. Though what she does next may seem like it. Iincyo? She knows it means 'Chairperson'... "Tha---that can't be your -name-!" she cries, almost indignantly. Then again, it is certainly true that she won't -forget- it. And probably, Iincyo won't forget -this-, as Adira backs up just a step, allowing her enough room to prepare for this assault of Iincyo's.
A multi-tiered assault--not something that is actually all the easy to do, really! Many fighters never get the hang of a combination to make it truly effective. Adira's impressed. She also ducks a little low--the first palm strike deflected with the right forearm, then the lashing kick is rotated into, her shoulder used to drive it off-balance.
And from there she strikes--she leaps upwards, legs bent, tucked in, ramming a knee into Iincyo's chest, hurling the girl upwards with the momentum--and following, letting Iincyo have half a second before she extends her legs and rotates a full three-sixty in a flashy aerial flip kick, to knock Iincyo away before she lands.
And then Chairperson is struck by a knee into her chest, being hurled upwards, and then a rather painful flip kick knocks her to the ground, onto the hard floor of the Mall. As she falls, and slams into the ground, her eyes open wide. And Adira would notice, when she gets up .. she's bleeding.
There's a trickle of blood.. more than a trickle actually.. staining her face, her hair, and her jacket.. from where she hit on the ground .. "It's .. enough.." She says.. slightly winded, before once again falling back, letting her aura flare.. she's not doing so well.. it's not going so well at all.
"Hah...." She says, just simply trying to keep standing. It's not what she should be doing.. but when the world stops spinning, she'll go back on the offense.

Adira 0/-------/----===|=======\=======\1 Iincyo
Adira can hit hard when she chooses; it's really one of her strengths. Attacking while defending. Defending while attacking. A singular movement and concept. Offense and defense at the same time. And constant movement, as much as possible. Suddenly, she darts forward, her legs churning as she closes the distance once more. Truth be told? She almost feels sorry for the girl. Almost. But then, Iincyo presented herself as a fighter, and the way she hit Adira initially, she's not going to take her lightly or take it easy on her.
Three steps, that's all it takes for Adira to work up to speed, and to reach Iincyo's position. It's quick and it's sudden.
On her last step, she crouches slightly, then leaps up, kicking outwards in a nearly horizontal roundhouse kick with her right leg, twisting her lower body to follow up with twisting, back thrust kick from the left, all before she lands.
It looks a little like the Dankuu Kyaku, but that second kick is in fact different...

Adira 1/-------/=======|======-\-------\0 Iincyo
The strength Iincyo has is not actually being able to fight well. She's a wasteful fighter, perhaps by nature, and her actions are sometimes unneeded and other times.. just plain ill timed. But the one thing Iincyo is quite capable of is just simply getting up and staying up.. and then making the most of her time.
So when Adira goes up to speed, Iincyo about finishes her daze, and her eyes narrow. The kick, a heavy roundhouse kick with alot of effort, unfortunately takes too long to easily perform, and can be taken advantage of quite liberally.
Which, surprise surprise, Iincyo does.
Charging forwards, pushing everything she has into her strength, Chairperson actually is able to break through the first roundhouse kick, sending an elbow to take, and stop the combination.. while beginning hers. "Hah... Alright.. I'm better now!" She cries out, grinning a bit, before pulling .. a clipboard out, and bashing it towards Adira, preventing the second back thrust kick, and then tossing it to the side, slamming palm strike, then another palm strike, kneeing upwards, and then extending the leg to kick Adira away.. before she lands, breathing heavily, but more or less able to keep fighting. "I hope.. t-that said something!" She comments.
Well... ow. Ow ow ow. Adira's suspicions are proved--this girl -can- fight, no matter what she might say. That -hurt-. Okay. That's okay. Adira can take it. She's tough. Part Israeli, which means 'hard as nails', see. Knocked away from her opponent, Adira tumbles to the edge of the circle that's been formed by the cheering, shouting kids (and why hasn't Security shown up? Oh yeah, because they can't handle this either.) The circle elongates to accomodate Adira as she gets back to her feet, a bit of a snarl on her face.
"That... hurt," she notes, her voice intense, not mild at all, though she hasn't raised her voice yet.
"That fuckin' hurt a lot... good job," she says. It isn't entirely obvious if she means it or not, though. (She does.) And then... and then, her right leg -lights on fire-, from sole to knee. Okay, it's not real fire. It's chi fire, a dark crimson in color, and as that energy gathers, Adira plants her right foot a bit behind her.
And then she kicks upwards, ripping that foot along the ground and then straight up in a high front kick. But that isn't the attack--it's the Adira-tall arc of crimson-red, fiery chi that's blasting its way towards Iincyo, RIGHT NOW.

Adira 1/------=/=======|=======\-------\1 Iincyo
As Adira comes to her feet, Iincyo looks on. Yes.. Chairperson can indeed fight. It's not something she very much likes to tell others. It's truly not what she likes to be known for! But she doesn't like to fight.. /and/ has trouble believing in her skills at times. She took up fighting to learn how to protect.. and never really liked it.
Perhaps this is why she will forever be stuck at her level of 'skill'.
"I'm sorry if it hurt alot .. but if you just handed it over..." The blow Adira had inflicted on her has put Iincyo in more than a little hurt. She's wincing, but still okay .. and then Adira has her leg light on fire.. chi. Oh she had no idea... and then as the woman kicks upwards.. Iincyo looks at flying student, and the projectile.. in the end, she nods, pushing herself into the fiery chi, and then leaping into it, Chairperson is blasted alright.. but launched towards Adira, and overcompensates for the projectile, actually gaining from it, her body twisting around as she grabs for Adira in the air, "And it's not .. not over yet! You'll hand it over!" She cries.. before she tries to twist the leg that's on fire, and pull Adira downwards, to slam her onto the ground, then begin a series of planned strikes.. palm thrusts, stepping kicks, and low side strikes.. if she can pull her down to the ground that is.
"I'm going to give .. everything I have!"

Whoa! Adira is floored... and then bashed around hardcore. It's a combination worthy of the finest MMA fighters, and Adira is helpless, her defenses broken. She yelps in pain as she's hammered... and then finally the assault is over and she can roll away. When she rises, she's not able to come up fully; she's bent a little... but still in a fighting mood, still burning with energy.
"Alright," she gasps, "I guess it's time to end this..." Despite the damage to her body, she's still quite capable of movement, as she proves by leaping forward, tucking up briefly, then coming in on a low, fast arc, her right leg extended in an slightly downward-angled heel kick... her leg sheathed in that crimson fire.

Adira 0/-------/-------|====---\-------\0 Iincyo
The heel kick strikes Iincyo in the chin, stunning her as Adira lands. Her next move flows smoothly and immediately--a combination of kick strikes on Iincyo's open body, kicking low, kicking high, a quick, blurring assault of swift kicks. But none of them have that crimson fire--until, after the last kick, a high thrust kick to Iincyo's chin--and Adira crouches.
And leaps, catching Iincyo in the chest with another flying knee, this one surrounded in her crimson chi. The knee launches Iincyo upwards again, and once again, Adira follows... and then explodes into three of those flip kicks, her fire-chi-laden feet carving three crescent moons into the air briefly as she strikes again and again and again, before landing.
And then as Iincyo lands on the ground, after striking over and over at Adira, she backs off. A few steps to clear the room between the two. Or well, put some space between them. Adira sure is powerful.. and end this? Iincyo doesn't like the sound of that. At all.
"Time to end this?" Perhaps she should have pulled it out faster.. Just maybe. But the time for that has come and gone.
And as Adira leaps forwards, tucking up and then coming at a low, fast arc, leg towards her... Iincyo wants to move. She does. But the youth isn't able to, the leg sheathed in fire. And how it strikes .. the chin. Not a few days ago did her jaw get beaten the living HELL out of by Kyo, so this hurts more than usual, causing Chairperson to stagger, eyes wide a bit from the sudden incredible jolt of pain. A quick blurring assault strikes her, over and over, a high thrust sends her juggling into the air.. crescent feet carved into the air, and Iincyo, and her clothing, charring it slightly, before she lands with a splat on the ground, falling front first onto the ground. "Ngh..." She responds to Adira with, twitching a bit. "Y-.. You're giving that back... You're r-returning .. that wallet." There's nothing much left for her, is there?
And then she steps up to her feet. A light aura of blue surrounds her, and for a moment, she leaves all that pain away.. letting her work through what would normally take her down. She's bleeding still, obviously she didn't get better .. but she's suddenly rushing towards Adira faster than she had ever before.
"You Gedo students..........!"
She charges forth, body coated slightly in chi, aiming a single heel slam into her front knee.

She breaks the guard. Just enough to get by. Just enough. "Could do so much better!" With the assault having gone through, Iincyo pushes herself for the rest of the actions. Rolling along Adira, she sends an ACTUAL PUNCH towards her back. "You might not always work hard... You might not always be looked upon as the best.. you might be lacking what you need truly to grow as much as you wish..." And then she straight out kicks Adira in the side, walking infront of her, pacing before her, TALKING. "But you don't try to make it better! You follow Daigo.. that's a start.. but you don't mug people .. you don't beat up people because they're on your turf. You try and make something of yourself! IT's not easy .. it never will be!" She's sort of fiery like this.
And shaking her hand, pointing, making such gestures towards Adira, she finally brings a foot backwards, hard, and barrels it into Adira's chest.. "So learn to OVERCOME IT!" Before she suddenly collapses forwards, the glow fading. She's .. spent.
Completely. She isn't getting up. And she can't move her arms.. too much .. pushing.
Ugh. This damn girl -won't stop talking-... finally Adira just -gives up-. "Goddamn... you little prissy thing... you don't even know... what's going on... WHAT'S YOUR EXCUSE?!?" she cries, as she's pummeled by words and fists, finally coming to a stop.
"... for your information," she hisses, her voice very intense now, "that kid I beat up," here, she's admitting to that, at least, "... stole the wallet from someone else... and I stopped him... and I was going to give the wallet back to the guy he stole it from!"
What Iincyo DIDN'T see: Five minutes before she entered the mall, a cry of "MY WALLET!" and the beaten-up kid running away, only to be tripped by Adira and subjected to a vicious kick-beating...
Adira gets to her feet. Christ, now she has to wash her clothes, they're all dirty. "... so if you'll excuse me, you presumptuous Taiyo... -girl-... I'm going to go find that guy and give him his wallet back..." And she'll limp her way there!

Iincyo raises her head a bit, looking at Adira, as she hisses. She was trying to .. and she .. and th.. and all... The Saikyo girl looks on, blinks once .. and then sighs. Fighting over nothing. She fought.. over nothing. This is the worst kind of feeling.
And as Adira limps away, she'll hear a, hard pressed and weak "I'm sorry.." As she pulls herself over to a bench to .. possibly fall asleep... or mope. What did she do. :(
