SNF 2008.09 - Pimp My Fighter! Nagare vs Blanka vs Vanessa

Description: Pimp my fighter?! With the amount of Bling on each of the three combatants, how can anyone end up getting their fists into a punching position? See the epicness that results! (Winner: Nagare)



"I think he's ready. Are you ready?"

'Awh-roo...?'

"HE'S REAAAAA-DY!"

Welcome to the set of 'Pimp my Ride, Fighter's Megamix!' This is a very special episode, and today's guests are nothing to sneeze at! The sound-stage is set up like a auto body store, nominally, but most of the jacks and lifts are being switched out of the way, and a makeshift ring is on the floor, matted out with cameras and such from every angle they can get. This show is intent on showing the power of technology for fighters, and their effects on the high-level warriors that make up the SNF fights.

Blanka's the first to be pushed out on the scene, and he looks quite the sight. His normal jean shorts are on, but he also has a bright red shirt with a set of gold eyes set in a frown, similar to his 'fighting face' with the text in ragged bold white letters beneath 'UNLEASH THE BEAST'. He's still getting used to people wanting him to wear things, but this fight is something else. On his legs are giant moon-boots in black and red, and on his hands are fingerless fighting gloves with some sort of substance on the back. On his shoulders are a set of speakers, and the little crackle and humm of electricity can be heard as he moves about, from his own electrically generated field. He looks nervous, uncertain - the lights and sounds a bit overwhelming. As the camera turns on him, he pulls back his head and gives out a howl, which is amplified by the in-shirt microphone, through the speakers. "AWH-ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" He stumbles forwards, dizzily after, half-deafened by the sound. @_@

COMBATSYS: Blanka has started a fight here.

Quick! Look over there! There they are! Yes yes huuuuuhhh?

Nagare emerges next! Not Mai at all, but wearing almost nothing just the same! Until he got PIMPED YO!! Nagare, who usually wears a simple speedo into fights, is now wearing a full piece wet suit! All about there are emblazons are sharks and shark teeth with the words 'SHARK ATTAX' emblazoned on the front with the picture of a shark on the back. It all wouldn't be so bad if there wasn't so many different pieces too the suit! And it wasn't made out of leather! Because it is.

But that's not all! Nagare's ordinary headband is replaced by a doorag, making him look like a really white rapper, and if that wasn't bad enough, they've... *GASP* taken out Nagare's flippers?! Yes! They've, however, added armbands with little propellers on them to help him move faster. But they don't actually do that... ooohhh nooo. They're chrone weights, but on the little 'propellers' there are, you guessed it, rims. Platinum rims that spins crazily whenever Nagare moves.

Nagare, if anything, wobbles forward, for once being out of his element AND flippers. "Woah... woahh.. this is sort of dangerous..." Nagare announces as he makes his way towards the sound stage, inwards towards the camera. On land, and without flippers, it looks like Nagare can barely stand! "W-wooaahh." Nagare announces one last time as he presses up against the wall, holding himself for the moment.

And then Vanessa steps onto the fighting stage! They asked her to bring her absolute coolest shirt, so she went in with her /black/ halter button up thing, which her youthful fan club assures her makes her look 'off the chain'.

This was vetoed.

So what she comes out wearing is nothing like what she usually wears, except insofar as the shirt is a halter top. It's black, and also a v-neck, with a silver COME GET IT sprawled across what little space there is to sprawl things. Her usual long pants are replaced with tattered cut-off jean shorts, and just generally she seems to be wearing about a third of what she usually wears.

Except for oh god the jewelry. Her gloves are still there - there's footage that will be on Youtube shortly of her decking the first guy to suggest she take them off - but they've managed to put gigantic gold knuckles across her fists (LEFT and RIGHT, obviously) and chains wrapped around her arms, and four waist chains sparkling in the studio lights, and like eight necklaces which all look like they weigh a pound. There's heavy THINGS on her shoulders, like some kind of shoulder pad from hell, and her mouth is immobile because they put some kind of horrific mouth guard made entirely of diamond and steel in there.

Also, they died her hair purple.

In general, Vanessa looks like she never wants to walk outside again as she manages to somehow walk upright into the ring area, and motions for the fight to begin so she can get this over with as quickly as possible.

Vanessa waits about two tenths of a microsecond before apparently growing bored of waiting for others to put her out of her misery, as she suddenly shoots forward in gigantic platform shoes, excepct the wheels in the bottoms throw her balance off, and she shoots right past Nagare, loops around and accidentally aims at Blanka!

She is making angry sounds beneath her oral bling.

Ok, Blanka is not the worst off - at least he still looks slightly human. Fish-boy Nagare gets a hoot and a laugh - which is quickly choked off as the amplifier in Blanka's shirt echoes the laugh right into his ears. He shakes his head dizzily again, and then yelps as Vanessa leaps into the attack! He brings his giant hand up, catching the impact in his palm. The 'knuckles' dig into his skin, and he pulls his hand away, wincing.

Eeling away from the fighter girl, he starts towards Nagare, his mouth open wide. Somewhere, on a screen, the fighting announcers are explaining how Blanka actually unhinges his jaw to engulf a person's head and chew on it, and how they've actually aided this by putting a giant rubber bite-protector on his mouth, cleverly shaped like his own grimace. Either way, he's attempting to wrap Nagare up and chew on him! AWM NOM NOM!

Wild beast! Wild beast! Oh it's just Blanka! He's so cu- WILD BEAST!

Nagare is focusing powerfully on how much everything actually weighs. And he's so constricted by this wetsuit that doing ANYTHING may be almost impossible. But he does manages to see something. And that's Blanka coming at him. Coming at him quick. Well, as quick as any of these fighters possibly can go. And he's really making his way, bounding off towards Nagare.

And Nagare can see it!

The rubber bite-protector! Nagare, as lucky as he is, manages to lift his weighty arms and force Blanka's mouth from closing on his hands! And once there, he just lucky that the big lug didn't take a bite out of him. "Woah! Easy there big guy!" Nagare announces as he double back, turning towards Vanessa in an awkward moment, and hurls himself as fast as he can go, almost slipping and sliding on water chi across the ground as he falls on his back.

Once there, he begins to kick, kick, and kick, the small fans help spatter the water chi about as his feet strike out at Vanessa barefoot!

Vanessa's all constrained by the PIMPING that has been done to her person, but her arms still can move fast enough to deflect the fan-sprayed water chi away and around...but her usual pattern of sweeping away from someone while she's dodging is once again fouled up by the boot wheels (she refuses to recognize these monsters as SKATES), which glide her gracefully away from Nagare and into the nearest wall, which she collides with, completely devoice of grace! She sits there a moment, and then her lip curls up as far as it can around that monstrous mouth guard, and she shoves herself away from the wall with her elbow, sliding toward Nagare, fist cocked back, and hopefully collides with his person before she collides with the camera crew!

Awm nom nom denied!! Blanka spits out the bite protector and makes a face - that thing tastes like ick, and no matter that it gave him a golden grill to go along with his other accountraments, he's not willing to play along with it. Fuming, he shakes his head, and tries to get his fight back into control.

When Vanessa skates past him towards Nagare, he runs to the end of the arena, and clambers up the ring ropes. Hauled up there, he raises his hand to the ear, and listens to the non-existent crowd. He does it again, to the other side! And then, he launches himself towards Vanessa's back, trying to splash down on her with something akin to a thud and an elbow. Someone has been watching bad wrestlin' on Dan's TV again!

Wuh oh! All that bling must be keeping Nagare down, as since he attempts to go right after Vanessa, after he's thrown himself so quickly, nagare attempts to swim away! Swim away and escape her powerful punch! But he doesn't succeed at all, instead, being sent clear backwards by her strike! Just attempting to start swimming backwards as the punch is launched causes a rather comedic scene where Nagare gets into the air, starts to kick and then, BLAM. Nagare's knocked clear backwards!

"Woaaaah!" Nagare announces as he bounces forward, almost directly into the camera crew before getting a PUNK'D sign flash about him as he aims to get back up. But sloowwwwlly. Nagare needs some time to get back up.

Vanessa's dash punch nails Nagare solidly, sending him careening away, but she's not done yet! Blanka comes at her while she's busy. The Pimp'd Boxing Queen skates in a circle, wobbling unsteadily, and then suddenly shoves off the dirt, skirting forward toward Blanka with immense speed, her charge difficult to track! By the time the cameras can find her again, she's already got her right arm out and buried in Blanka's solar plexus, a vicious right straight timed so that Blanka doesn't even get his feet all the way into kickin' position!

There is a rather large 'THUD' as Blanka hits the arena floor, after being punched in the solar plexus. He lands in a heap and tries to scrabble up to his feet, to regain his strength and lean into new attacks. Rubbing at his chest, he reaches up into his hair, and comes down with something that looks suspiciously like a Scouter, a plain piece of green plastic that hangs over his left eye. He starts to examine both fighters, to decide who and how to attack! Unfortunately for him, Blanka really can't /read/ the readout, so has no way to know that both Vanessa and Nagare's power levels are /over NINE THOUSAND/. Fortuantely for him, Blanka's 'scouter' is actually a plastic toy that only says 'over NINE THOUSAND', so he's left to his canny skill at examining himself!!

COMBATSYS: Blanka focuses on his next action.

Oofa!! Pimped out Vanessa seems tobe on fire! And Nagare can tell, he's on one of the recieving ends! Still, the Swimtastic super star of Taiyo High, or at least a coach won't be detered by his on going move to make everything count, and now that Blanka is leaving him alone, he can use his own time to throw himself at Vanessa lickety split! But it isn't just a normal throw himself after, it's a swimming one.

Even as Vanessa buries her punch and sends Blanka back, Nagare uses his super awesome new suit and style to creep up on Vanessa like some kind of pimped out scuba diver, attempting to come up and out, aiming a rather had hazard punch right towards Vanessa after a great deal of waddling!

For some reason, Nagare looks a little tired! Could be anything!

Pimped out SCUBA diver from Hell! Or at least from Japan! Vanessa nails Blanka, and tries to grin triumphantly around her MOUTH PIECE OF THE DAMNED, but fails. Sad. But she doesn't have time to be sad! Because HERE COMES NAGARE!

Vanessa hears it coming, spinning around suddenly and catching Nagare's punch on her forearms. She scowls and emits a low sound that would be something smart and sassy except for the damn mouth guard, so instead it just sounds silly.

She shoves his punchin' arm aside, then, and lashes out at Nagare with a sudden hook punch from her left!

Blanka is still recovering from his own gutpunch, yes - the impact was pretty fierce, and he's wobbbled and off-balance. The extra pounds of electronics on him certainly don't help. His eyes are off-white instead of gold, a thin layer of electric charge being stolen from his body to light up the power that's going to his outfit, causing the gold eyes on the shirt to glow brilliantly. He edges back, and watches Vanessa move towards Nagare.

At the same time, Blanka moves forwards, taking a couople of experimental jabs at Nagare's side, trying to catch him off-guard, even though the amount of noise that emenates from his outfit makes it almost impossible to be 'sneaky'. Each breath is rasped out via the spakers, and it makes him sound like a tall, green Darth Vader.

Punches everywhere! That is the lesson for Nagare, especially now that both Vanessa and Blanka both throw ones from either side at him. He can already see Vanessa's strike coming at him first, only to find out that he's moving too slow. Even as he aims to get himself up, throw himself backwards and deal with his own problems he's stuck to the ground by his bling!

Bam, the punch strikes into him, sending him rolling backwards until he hits the ground, in which he gets up fast enough that Blanka has a nice place to strike, a whole bunch of jabs aimed towards his outfit. The rasps, however, make it easier for Nagare to bring up his dukes, just to slow the strike from coming! And thankfully he manages it!

He's not too so great, but he's still in here! That's for sure! Getting up, Nagare does the next best thing. Leaping up and striking out towards the green machine that is Blanka! Attempting none other than to kick him away! Meanwhile, his suit stretches and even shines brightly do to the great amount of reflective pieces added on!

Blanka supports Vanessa's sock to Nagare's person, and the Boxing Queen takes advantage of the distraction, slamming her fist home on the swimming coach and knocking him back toward the big scary monster dude. Vanessa swings backward a moment, and again forgets the idiots put wheels on her platforms, which sends her careening off-balance and toward the far boundary ropes of the ring. She grabs on, trying to find respite for just a moment...but no such luck! They are the devil's greatest wonder, ELASTIC, and therefore only relieve her for a moment before they sling her back at the fray, going "WHOA OH OH OH FREAKING WHEELS"

On the SNF special footage, this is when they cut to Vanessa's pimpin' team, to explain that they installed something even more special in her platforms than wheels: JUMP JACKS

Vanessa abruptly finds herself sailing through the air, aimed at Blanka pretty much by complete accident.

Ha-ha! Blanka is in control, excited and hootin! Energetic and bouncing about, Blanka bounds here and there within the battle. With all the effort of the fight, Blanka's starting to really get into it. He eels around kick after kick, Nagare's flippers fanning him rather a lot, giving him a nice little cool-down that he could /really/ use. He's gotten the breather he's ready for - and now, well.. He's ready to face what comes his way!

Well, /almost/ ready - unfortuantely, Blanka isn't expecting to be bowled over by Vanessa herself, a flicker of power echoing around his frame /just/ before he gets slammed into. Bowled over, he bounces along the arena floor, dazed and dashed down, head bouncing painfully on the arena's floor. Almost out like a light, this one! Ow-roo!

Wow, it realy looks like Vanessa is destroying the field! But fear not, my fine green fellow, Nagare is here to help! Or at least try to help! That's for sure! And he does, well, after he attempts to kick him of course. Something that Blanka manages to avoid rather nicely! Getting up and making his way towards Vanessa, Nagare does the only thing he can think of.

He turns all those fans on so the rims begin to spin, and all the cloathing actually keeps him from lurching off the ground as quick, the water chi barely soaking through the leather with shiny material as he goes up and up and up and up, and at the top, he even stops for a moment, hovering for some unknown reason. Probably the offbalance of weight!

And you'd think that his weight would help him as he comes down, but it doesn't! He just goes down down down down, aiming to clobber Vanessa with his head, straight on!

Vanessa clobbers Blonka, and then lands flat on her back, completely immobile for a second.

She doesn't yet realize that her mouthguard has some kind of bizarre microphone /thing/ in it, which is clearly how she was talking earlier, so she instead just growls annoyedly until Nagare appears overhead. She tries to throw herself aside, but it's too slow - she takes that skull right in her belly, and emits a loug "NNNNG!" as the air rushes out of her lungs. She struggles to breathe, but rises soon enough, growling around her mouthguard. And then she pushes the attack against Nagare, shoving off again to try and slam a hard right punch toward his chest. There's not enough room for her to go careening off on her wheeled shoes...this time.

Awh-roo? Back to his feet? Blanka can still fight! He staggers to his feet, and braces his hands on his thighs, struggling to get up. He's dazed, dizzy - but still up. He's taken the moment to savor the fact that he doesn't have a flipper or a body in his face, so he's better ready to enter the fray again!

With a leap and a howl, Blanka rushes inwards again, attempting to catch Vanessa in the back with an elbow. He's not going to try to hit Nagare while he's distracted /again/. At least, not yet. The beastman's sense of fair-play would go off!

Nagare is tossed about more than a flapping fish as he lands, bouncing comidically off of Vanessa and moving sparadically about. It's a funny little thing he has to do, after, you know, diving head first into someone, and if failing that, the ground proper. But many times he doesn't hit the ground! Which is why he can even still think.

Coming off of Vanessa, the slippery swimmer finds out something else about his new found bling bling. That when wet, it stays wet. Nagare slippery as a fish now, for real! It's so weird, and so slimy! Nagare will never want to be a fish again! Not that he ever wanted to be one before.

"Oh, whoops! Sorry!" Nagare announces, backing off before slipping awkwardly backwards, before being thrown forward and zipping against the ropes, and rubberbanded right back under Vanessa, and towards Blanka, where he surfaces just enough to attempt to throw Blanka as he gets up!

Vanessa's back on her feet by now, so even though Nagare SLIDES away from her punch, she's at the ready for when Blanka comes crashing down at her. She pulls her arms up easily, spinning on her wheels to match the beastman's elbow with a pair of shiny forearm guards that Vanessa might just keep after this, the woman gliding backward from the force of the blow, using the bought space to catch her breath a little.

And then she slams back toward Blanka, fists flying left right left right left right UPPERCUT!

She'd yell something but, mouthguard.

What, what?! Everyone is picking on the beast-man again!! Actually, Blanka's not terribly worried - so far, the battle has been decidedly even-keeled, with each throwing attacks out left, right and center. The beast-man howls in preperation for the incoming strikes, bracing up as best he can in the bulky suit he wears. He's gotten his head out of the semi-panicked mode the overloud sound of his own voice has caused to him, and he's starting to settle into the rhythm of the fight.

He's caught by Nagare's hands, the quick little toss that the agile man makes throwing him forwards, upwards. He tucks into a ball as Vanessa pulls her hand back, catching the punch after punch into his hair and back, offing him a ltitle protection from each impact, but still sounding quite fierce as it slams into unprotected skin. He lands against the turnbuckle of the ropes, right where he wanted to be, and there he prepares for a lighting like move, one that will cause him to ..

BWEEP BWEEP BWEEP!! BWEEP BWEEP BWEEP *VWOOP VWOOP VWOOP* "FIGHTER IN DANGER, FIGHTER IN DANGER!" BWEEP BWEWEP BWEEP!! BWEEP BWEEP BWEEP!!

Blanka's hair suddenly lights up like the Fourth of July - a 'Blues and Twos' rising up from his head and spinning around, sending lights and noise /everywhere/, informing the other two fighters that Blanka's had just about everything he can. He's still standing - at least for a second or two. /However/, he's already been made quite skittish by the battle thus far - and the sudden EXPLOSION of noise and lights makes him cover his ears and howl, running around in circles. The green giant bounds from one side of the ring in what might be a comical fashion, were he not so obviously distressed, and as he tries to get away from the noise and lights, he barrels out of the arena and out the door itself. There's no final time to prepare or throw a punch... No, this beastman has 'left the building'. Like Elvis. A giant, green Elvis.

Nagare just watches as it happens, getting up after the toss and turning about only to find out that BWEEP BWEEP BWEEP BWEEP. He reacts almost as if he was being attacked, jumping back before finally finding out that, in this case, it was only Blanka's bling! But his bling was strong enough to actually make him howl loudly, blow everything before leaping up and out and then exploding away. Nagare wasn't really sure how to think of that, other than be impressed that Blanka made it this far through it!

It's good that Blanka got out of it when he could. First the advertising fight, and now this?! Nagare needs to lay off the Saturday Night Fights diet! It's going to make him fat!

"Well... I guess it's just you and me now! Good luck!" The swimmer announces as he begins to make his way right towards Vanessa! And as he does, launch himslef into the air slowly, coming down even slower! Even the fans are beginning to over heat! And it makes it all the harder to actually strike!

Vanessa hears that insane BWEEP BWEEP BWEEP and squawks in surprise, tripping and accidentally triggering the jump jacks and shooting her up into the air, only to land on her face.

Her teeth are protected by the mouth guard, so that's nice.

She wobbles slowly back onto her heely-equipped feet, unsteadily, just in time for Nagare to announce his intention to beat her face in! The swimmer comes at her, but Vanessa's ready, now, and she counters beautifull - sliding her fist out to catch Nagare mid-descent, slamming him hard in the gut to discourage his assault! She hums an agreement to the good luck, at least.

Even as the powerful kick comes, Vanessa comes quicker! She speeds forward, smashing a fist right into his fist before falling backwards, spinning about before striking against the ground before skidding as if he was on a slip and slide, coming to a halt and leaving water chi some good deal back! Of course, that blow to his ribs also wasn't too nice! It just knocked the wind out of him for a good while!

But, like all swimmers, Nagare gets right back up on his feet, slowly lifting one leg after another before standing, breathing powerfully at first, but catching his breath as time continues. And then he goes after Vanessa once more.

Running forward before sliding, aiming to go right beneath Vanessa, only to pull her up, and flip her over like a pancake with his back!

Vanessa's hard counter punch manages to redirect Nagare for just a second, but he's back on his feet soon! But that precious second was all Vanessa needed to get herself ready and stable on her heelies. (She hates these things and will punch the man who designed them, later.)

The Boxing Queen manages to get her body just right - Nagare's yank pulls on her legs, but she skates aside with only minor throbbing pain in her arms to show for Nagare's attempt.

Minor pain...and pulsing wind chi, gathered around her fist. She curls her lips around the horrendous mouth guard, and then skates in, strength gathered around her hand--

MMMMMMMMMF MMMMMMMMMM!

And throws a hard, straight punch right at Nagare as he's getting up, a hurricane of wind chi exploding around her arm at the same moment!

And like the slippery man Nagare is, even as Vanessa puts her strength. Almost all of it, right into Nagare's figure. If he wasn't as wet about the suit, and wasn't as manueverable, it could have been bad. Very bad! But as the exploding punch lurches right into Nagare's general direction, Nagare forces himself to get up and move! Of course, this also has to deal with the whole bling part.

Like how his suit sprouts fins out of nowhere, causing him to not only look funny, but move a little faster due to his sleek and stylish new nature! Just enough so that he gets out of the way, even as Vanessa slams through one of his fins! The humanity!

As he rolls to a stop across the floor, Nagare looks up towards Vanessa, and aims to take advatange of the moment! He spins down, moving forward before aiming to do a swimming back kick, aimed with water chi right towards Vanessa's chin!

Vanessa puts all her hope and dreams into that punch! And then Nagare...slips aside! Like a fish!

The censors sigh in collective relief as they realize that speech-blocking mouthguard is keeping her from cursing Nagare's remotest descendents to die in water. Instead, she takes it as best she can - snapping her arms up to catch the incoming flipper kick on the forearm guards, she streaks back in for another solid punch!

Vanessa          0/-------/---====|=======\====---\1           Nagare


The punch solidly whips directly into Nagare's prepared defenses! He falls backwards crazily, spinning and rolling to an unstoppable stop. The sheer strength of it leaves Nagare grasping for threads! Threads that he himself has no way of grasping without, and now, with Vanessa rapping upon his defenses, he has to think quick.

Getting up, even if he is seriously pimped out, Nagare throws himself towards Vanessa in a quick, dedicated manner! Directly towards her figure, the practiced swimmer gets up close and personal, sliding across the ground before stopping directly in front before kicking! Kicking in a manner that is so powerful, waterchi rises up in waves, and the kicks feel almost ground breaking! Woah-nelly!

COMBATSYS: Nagare successfully hits Vanessa with Super Splash Kick.

Vanessa knows she doesn't have the resources left in her to block that attack. Just..can't, not with all this /crap/ on her. She tries to glide away, but Nagare's faster than her beheely'd feet, and Vanessa finds herself splashed up, up, into the air, spinning around and round--until the shoulder pads she had on at the very start suddenly snap outward, revealing an array of powerful fans! Vanessa holds her arm out, gathering more of that wind chi around her fist, and then when she hits the ground, slashes her arm up across her body - and a hurricane whips forward, a gale guided by the fan power of her pimpin' shoulder guards to blast in too fast for Nagare to get clear!

Even as Vanessa fires a powerful blast of windchi right towards Nagare, the swimmer, being in tune with water chi, does the best thing he can possibly think of! Get the hell out of there! Or at least try, firing himself towards the side in an attempt to slide right out of the way. And he does, barely, the hurricane winds whipping on by as he lifts his head. Boy did he dodge a lot of bullets today! But this pimped out stuff is really starting to get to him!

That begin said, Nagare rises, tired beyond belief, but knowing that he has to keep it up, Nagare begins to swim. And swim and swim, right towards Vanessa, even as she's on the defensive! With all his paddling, the shark stuff looks really weird. Especially the bracelets with the fans on them. But the hard part to imagine is all the water chi that he's toting along with him!

COMBATSYS: Nagare successfully hits Vanessa with Dog Paddling.

Vanessa's final trump card, her last, triumphant gambit--

Fails completely!?

She emits a loud scream and a series of extremely furious-sounding noises beneath the Mouthguard of Ages before Nagare silences her FOREVER!? (fat chance) with a bloom of water chi!

Nagare, if anything, sort of is getting use to this gimmic fights. They're almost a little fun! If only since it's good, clean fighting, and a place to pit your skills against some of the best and most different fighting styles there is! And for one, well, today's was a challenge!

Slowly getting up, Nagare wobbles and wibbles a little, unable to keep his balance at all. Well, it's something you get for really exerting yourself at the end of the fight. r
As he bows towards Vanessa, he can't help but feel a little pushy. "Good fight." Nagare announces. But, as he walks away, it becomes apparent why! Nagare begins to shed all the bling faster than anyone can ever imagine. If only because, for once and many times, Nagare does not want to wear that many clothes! Too hot!

COMBATSYS: Nagare has left the fight here.
