Description: The Park! Place of adventure and fun. And the setting for a Neo League fight between the small pervert Choi and the priestess of ice, Mizuki. ( Winner: Choi )
Time was running out. The Neo-League was reaching a beach head. This was the last round. Choi Bounge found himself in many straits. He was down by eight, trapped in 6th, and Naerose ate his shoes. Therefore, it came to the final stretch. It was time to cut his trailing... short.
Mizuki. The name sounded very familiar. A very girlie name. That was a GOOD thing. The fight was to be at the Southtown Park. A beautiful location, with plenty of trees. Even the site itself was positioned between two trees. There, on the far right one, the midget crossed his arms, tapping a single claw on the trunk of the tree. Where was this... potential babe? If a babe. Hopefully a babe.
Maybe she would like be to treated like one?
Time? Oh yes, the Neo League's fifth season, drawing to a close. That's right. Mizuki's been a bit distracted from it--not that she was ever a very gung-ho participant in the League. Still... she did feel... a need to fight. A desire to enter combat. It's an odd thing; she isn't very bloodthirsty, but it's been a while since she'd exercised her skills, and so she signed up for the next available fight.
The Southtown Park soon finds itself graced with Mizuki's presence--the redhead wearing her now-traditional fighting outfit, white gi top and red hakama, gloves, the whole works. As she walks, she seems deep in thought--something she shakes free of once she's arrived. Choi. Choi Bounge. The little perverted man with the claws... this will be... trying.
But isn't that a good thing? After she arrives, she bows to Choi, politely, then turns towards the officials--who nod. "Begin!" cries the official, and Mizuki takes it to heart, lunging forward almost... and then stopping short, twirling almost, slashing her right hand out and creating an arc of blue-silver energy that extends into a shardlike lance aimed for Choi's chest, a lance of icy energy to pierce, if she should hit... no physical damage, just cold and pain.

Wellllll. Choi looks over Mizuki with those dirty eyes. And what does he do? Grin. The midget likes what he sees. "Heeeeeey baaaaaabeeeee" The little man calls out as the girl steps out. As she bows, Choi peers a little forward to catch a glimpse of, well, lets say he just misses. And as she turns to bow to the judges... the match begins.
That was fast!
When Mizuki charges forward, the little man shows off his agility immediately. Shooting right up the trunk, he snaps his claws back. But then, instead of waiting for a physical assault... she unleashes a powerful shard of ice. Well shoot. That was like a certain someone he remembered very well.
Leaping off the tree, he launches himself through the air, clearing the distance between him and Mizuki with disturbing speed. "Toots! You with NESTS or something?" Was the snap as he stuck his claws forward. Like a drill, he began to spinning around, trying to screw his claws right into the girl's... shoulder? Apparently, he was trying to keep the fight in the air, it seems.
With his rapid, midair drilling, while, he even somehow screws himself just around that shard. Better recover quick, Mizzles, or you will find a dirty midget right up in your grillz.

"NESTS? I've never even--" No, no wait. She has. A shake of the head sends her ponytail lashing around, as she ducks low, rolling forward past Choi as he drilled forward towards her.
"No! I'm not part of that group!" And that's that for it. She does wonder why he would ask, but then... Kula, of course. Still, that isn't part of her gig. Choi wants to stay in the air--well, that's fine, she supposes, as she turns to face Choi's position... and then she comes up and leaps for the little guy. She's hoping to catch him while he's flying, waiting until the almost last moment before firing a quick, pistoning side kick. She's aiming for Choi's torso, rather than, say, his head--she's relatively nice.
Of course, that could be a problem with Choi, despite his somewhat goofy nature. He, after all, is wielding a sharp weapon...

Choi's blinding speed almost pays off. Almost. The attempt to drill into the shoulder was jumped. Instead of being taken off guard, though, it seems that the priestess... girl? Was she a priest? Maybe a student. Or a babe! Choi's thoughts of getting thee to a nunnery are interrupted by a quick kick in the chest.
Well, at least she isn't NESTS.
Falling to the ground with a very loud gasp, the little man just... well, wheezes. "JEEZE." Was the squeak as he tumbled up, putting a palm to his chest. "Well, that's just fine, babe! That means we can be an item!" Choi chortled, lowering his body down as he picked up speed. Moving faster and faster, he dipped for Mizuki's legs (or point of landing, if he managed to get the jump fast enough!). If he made it... he would just begin to whirl in place like a top. Yes, he would make a little tornado, complete with wind chi running through his body and claws. And just send the girl up into the sky with him.

It -is- a fast 'little tornado'. But Mizuki is, at least partially, prepared; she covers up, gasping when the claws strike--only able to turn her body so that Choi strikes the least-vital areas, carving thin furrows in her skin. Weathering the storm proves to be the best way to handle it; Mizuki manages to 'push' away, landing on her own two feet. She looks down at her arms, her legs, noting where they're scored, seeing the red blood well up... and dismissing it for the moment.
Choi is the first concern, of course; she can heal herself later, if and when it becomes a problem. For now, however, she simply draws near again, her arms up, crossed at the wrists... only to come uncrossed, as she closes in.
Once close enough, she attacks, launching a twin-palm strike--on most it would hit the chest, but on Choi, she'll probably hit face and chest if she manages. And she asks a quetion, seemingly out of pure curiosity. "Why the claws...?"

Choi's attempt at tearing up Mizuki (and her clothing, oh how does Choi miss innocent reasons to cut apart clothing!) unfortunately only gets his razor sharp claws against her tender, soft arms. Instead of crawling up her leg, though, the Korean gets shoved back. Pity. With her emphasis on moving in on the defense, Choi finds himself content with dancing just out of reach.
The little man was watching for an opening. It was just what he did. A good weak spot meant the perfect chance to start building up momentum. And once he started building up that... well, Mizuki might find herself in a whole heap of trouble. Then, she asks about the claws. Oooooh. You had to ask, didn't you. As she shoots forward with a twin palm strike, the little man suddenly ducks even lower, allowing the fists to pass over him. Looking at that exposed belly, he suddenly snaps out an answer.
"Why? Well, toots, I'm a butcher by trade, and lets face it. I just LOVE carving MEAT!"
And with that, he swipes both of his own claws up, attempting to rake his pair from foot to front in one giant slash.

A butcher. Well, he's definitely going to do some butchering her; Mizuki only has time to shriek, as the blades rake her body. She disengages at the last moment, again denying Choi any strikes at her vitals... but only just barely, and now she's bloodied and her outfit is a little closer to ruined.
"F--fair enough," she gasps, as she fights the sharp, silvery pain. She isn't going to give in to it that easily. There's still some quivering in her muscles, but she ignores it--she's going to repay the favor. Or she's going to do her damndest to try.
Mizuki takes maybe four steps forward, and crouches as if she were going to take to the sky--but instead all that potential kinetic energy is put into a rising, powerul forward kick, simple and yet, if she hits... it could prove to be almost brutally effective.
The attack is accompanied by a loud, sharp kiai, of course.

Choi tears right up along the poor girl's body. The vitals are saved, but not the TRUE target of the little gremlin's tastes. No, those were the shreds of clothing revealing what was underneath. A high-pitch squeal of laughter erupted from the little man. "KEE HEE HEE! Any more questions? I just LOVE your style, baby!"
Claws still up high, the man seems to dance a bit side to side. Just swaying those claws back and forth. As Mizuki charges in with her leaping strike, Choi decides to... break for a sidestep. Shuffling to her side by shifting from a sway to a roll, it becomes obvious that she wasn't going for a leap, but a powerful kick. Well, that's just PEACHY for the midget, who immediately takes the chance to keep rolling. Plunking down right behind her, he perks up, facing away from the girl. Looking between his legs, he suddenly jab both claws between his legs, attempting to poke her right in her little kidney.
Ouch.

Vicious. Mizuki wants no part of the stabbings that Choi has planned. But it's not entirely up to her, now, is it? She twists, almost frantically--forcing Choi to once again miss his target by the barest fraction. The blades still hit, though, and she bites back a shriek of pain as she stumbles forward. Too... annoying. Too much pain. Mizuki doesn't want to deal with it, but she has to. She agreed to the fight.
Briefly, she puts her hand over the new wound... then drops to one knee, as if very injured. It isn't a feint, though--simply her reaching for a new weapon. A smallish, rounded rock--one that she slings, underhand, aimed for Choi's forehead. It isn't exactly the best, most honorable attack around... but she is facing him, at least... and she isn't being very secretive or sly about what she's doing, either.

A ROCK?
Choi tries to impale her in the back, and she counters with a ROCK?
The midget draws his claws back, a bit disappointed that she was reacting in such a... unprofessional manner. With a short hop, he just draws his claws back... and ducks. The rock simply knocks his hat off, releasing a small shower of... dirty photographs? And is that a pair of pink panties? The HELL? The midget quickly collects up his little fedora, and glares at the girl from behind his glasses. "A rock? What is wrong with you? Just because you have looks, doesn't mean you don't have BRAINS." Sneering at the girl, he sticks a claw in each of his ears. Spreading his other claws wide, he starts waggling them. "KAAAY HEE HEEEEE! Dumb as a BLONDE!" The little man cackles, sticking his tongue out. Is he... mocking you, Mizuki?

One does what one can. Choi sees fit to mock her; Mizuki has... decided that he can do that. She seems inured to the taunting--the words wash over her, as she clears her mind. Focus. Focus on her goal... don't let anything else interfere. She seems utterly still, unmoving, like a statue...
Until she moves. It isn't superhumanly fast--but she does go from a standstill to a quick movement and it doesn't even take a second. She's lunging, closing in on Choi, hands at the ready.
Is Choi ready? Maybe he is--she's reaching out for him, it seems, as she closes in. Reaching out to grab him by the shirt--or maybe the neck. If she grips, she'll lift, she'll turn, she'll slam him into the ground...
And she'll unleash a burst of her cold, icy chi to complete the attack. The burst would be enough to send him flying away from her, far enough for her to rise back to her feet...

Choi's taunting is met with focus, detachment...
And grabbing.
Wait, what?
Yes, Mizuki does the unthinkable. She charges at the mocking Choi, who quickly decides to hide his face from the oncoming pounding. However, something happens. Instead of a pounding... it is a grabbing. And when there is a grabbing, that means... a slam to the ground. Which in itself, really doesn't do much to the acrobatic little man. No, what DOES really seal the deal is that blast of ice. The explosion of her frosty chi knocks him flying hard away, smacking right into one of the trees.
Wait, a tree?
Repositioning his body flat, Choi puts himself into a pounce. Glaring at the girl, he winds his legs underneath himself, tucking in as his claws dig into the tree. This was just like how he started out! With an explosion of speed, the little man dives for the girl, spinning like a drill with his claws out. Aiming right for her center, he was attempting to tear right through her like a bullet... while closing that same distance she opened.

Not this time--this time, Mizuki is prepared for the thrusting drill attack. She has, after all, seen it before. The miko twists away, feeling Choi pass by her body; her back, in particular. Her attack didn't seem to damage Choi as much as she had hoped... but that's alright. That isn't -why- she fights, after all, to hurt people...
Still, opportunity knocks, and she answers as best as she can--twisting to attempt to just chop Choi in the back of the head as he passes by. It's relatively safe, since his clawed hands are pointed forward--and it could prove to be a good hit.
Strikes to the head can be a powerful tool--instilling fear, causing dizziness or concussive shock... there are many good reasons to target an opponent's head.
Mizuki kind of just wants to kncok his block off, though, to borrow a phrase.

Choi's high-power drilling dive catches... nothing. Mizuki's clever side-shuffle saves her the pain of being torn into. Unfortunately, the same offense doesn't exactly lead to a proper counter, if you move too slowly. While Mizuki had the right idea, the execution just falls short. The midget suddenly shifts down, hitting the floor into a roll. The chop just misses him, which might be trying on the poor girl. Dodges are almost as annoying as hits that don't seem to do anything!
As the midget hits the ground, he sort of a barrel twists. Landing in a manner where he faces Mizuki, he suddenly digs his claws on the ground. "What's a matter, toots? Too slow to go all the way with the Big Bounge, HUH?" A high-pitched cackle punctuate the suddenly dash towards the girl... followed by a quick backflip into the air. Uh oh. Looks like the midget was going back into his aerial game, and with a flip-kick aimed right for the priestess's chin, too.

Suddenly--bootheel to the chin! Mizuki's teeth clack together as she's essentially uppercutted with a kick--causing her to stagger back. Fortuantely, no broken teeth; she probes her mouth as she steadies herself, with her tongue. Phew. Few things she hates worse than dealing with the dentist. Rubbing her jaw, she halts her stumble and shakes her head, to clear it; this hasn't been her best fight, but she's not doing too badly either, all things considered.
"Alright, Mr. Bounge," she says, mumbling almost. "You've proven your fast... damn fast... how can I beat you...?" Well, the short answer is--*hit him*. Almost easier said than done, though, isn't it? Lunging forward again, she brings her hands to bear, flattened into ridgehands...
Then she starts slashing, right, left right, her hands flared with her icy chi, with three chopping attacks. Each attack is accompanied with a brief, sharp "KIAI!"

With a flip-kick, the midget suddenly gets into the air. Well, this was not good for Mizuki. Once Choi gets in the air, he suddenly has a lot of options to work with, as shocking as it is. What it all depends on is whether you catch him as he falls. With the kick stunning her, the little man slips to the ground without anything stopping him. And from there, he breaks into a full roll.
Her three chopping attacks become a ridiculous match of cat and mouse. With everything strike, the midget suddenly changes directions with the roll. By the third one is released, he must have switched flank on her four times. And suddenly, he comes from that fifth flank. With one claw out, he swiftly rakes it out towards her legs, trying to knock her down with a slash-by as he dances right by her legs.

Choi 0/-------/----===|=======\==-----\1 Mizuki
Well... that didn't work. She attempts to deflect Choi's blades once more--but instead he scores a direct hit. She crumples, gasping--perhaps in prime position for him to finish her off? Until, of course... she begins glowing, blue-white-silver, chi suddenly pouring up off of her body. That energy shifts in color, to blue-green, and it envelops her completely--as she rises.
Oftentimes, people are a little worried, a little afraid, of actually trying to stop her from doing this... and she isn't sure why. But there's very little that -can- stop this... only taking her out, really. Will Choi attempt that? Or will he try something else...?
The power buildup, the release... all of this is what she's doing is the result of training -and- natural ability... but will it be enough to keep her in this fight?
Choi's rapid dance around the girl started a problem. See, while Mizuki was being nickeled and dime'd, she also kept a trump card in her back pocket, it seems. The little man's swipe managed to draw blood this time, putting her in the prime position to begin the rip and tearing. As she begin to glow with that strange energy, the midget doesn't think twice.
He just attempts to leap on top of her body. If he manages to get a mount, he would just start pounding his claws into the poor girl, attempting to brutally rend her chest, face, and shoulders to pieces. All this to a sonnet of the high-pitched cackles that all gotten to know to love.

Choi 0/-------/=======|======-\-------\0 Mizuki
Disruptive. That's what Choi is. His leap is able to disrupt her healing abilities--she gets -some- benefit out of it... but not nearly enough. She's still wounded. The first stab goes as planned... and then Mizuki -screams-. And when she screams, she explodes, almost literally, the converted chi reverting to offensive form in a a fraction of a second, and then exploding to force Choi away from the miko.
She ends up on her hands and knees, for a moment, then pushes to her feet, shaky... but having landed a good strike for all that. She's winded, for sure, and yet there's a fiery defiance to her eyes, something that says she's not going to give up, even as down as she is.
"Guess... we'll have to do thais the old fashioned way, Bounge-san," she says, through her panting for breath.
"YEE HEE H-UH?!"
Choi, unfortunately, was getting winded as well. As his first claw penetrated the bubble, he suddenly realized, or at least came to the conclusion, that he fell for a trap. He had no idea that this was any sort of healing. It was just pretty colors! As such, without any level of defense, he triggers the bomb. The aura explodes right over him, knocking him for a loop.
Well, shoot. Now he was back to square one.
At least he seemed to be doing a little better than his foe. As she was shakily getting up to her feet, the midget was springing up. Beads of sweat forming over his eyes but under the brim of his hat, he just began a rapid shuffle right back to the girl, stumbling into a gallop, galloping into a run. And with a full jog finally reached, he screams at the girl. "You got it, toots!" With that, he just throws himself into a quick roundhouse kick for the hip of the priestess.

Maybe the energy spent wasn't completely put to waste--she feels better now, literally skipping backwards just far enough for that kick to swing by her. He certainly is responsive; Mizuki well remembers how hard he hits her, not something she wants to happen again. She might not really be a true competitive fighter, but she has the old instincts, herslf, from time to time.
And she seems to be following those instincts further--as she lands, she transfers her inertial momentum into a spinning kick of her own--a roundhouse right snapped around towards Choi's forehead. She hasn't struck him too many times in this fight, yet... but maybe she won't really -need- to... if she can just connect! Right?
"You sure are a fast one, Bounge-san... guess you'd have to be, though, at your size...!"

Choi's kick just falls short of Mizuki, highlighting his height in an... unpleasant way. While he was nimble, his reach tended to fall short. And wouldn't you know it, that makes the midget a little upset. And when you have an angry midget, that can only mean trouble. And wouldn't you know it. As she snaps into her own roundhouse kick using HER OWN reach, the midget just brings up his arms to absorb the impact. And then, she says it.
"My SIZE?!"
If Mizuki wanted to get a frenzied dwarf with claws angry, she just succeeded. The little man suddenly shoves against the teenager's leg with a great deal of rage; a warning. Suddenly, the little man just barrels towards Mizuki's, claws swiping. He just tries everything, swipes, slashes, rends, tears, stabs, and even a few spins. He just keeps slash-slash-slashing... until he gets burned out...
Or stopped.

Choi 0/-------/-------|=======\-------\0 Mizuki
"Was it something I said...?" Mizuki's really just wondering out loud here--and then she's suddenly she's being barreled at by an angry Choi. A man who is slashing, tearing, stabbing... it's far too fast for Mizuki to even consider getting out of the way. Instead, she simply protects herself as best as she can, twisting away from the worst of the damage. She and Choi continue the bloody dance for a few more moments, and then, just when Choi is about exhausted, she disengages, hopping backwards.
That is, she hops backwards... only to hop forward again, tucking her legs underneath her, and swiveling them to throw a slow, but powerful roundhouse kick--her leg extended nearly completely horizontally as she once again attempts the ancient technique of Boot to the Head. Choi's head is small and he is a fast one, though, so perhaps she won't be any more successful this time...

Nope! She wasn't!
Though Choi wasn't much better. Despite the volume of blows, there was just a sheer lack of quality. Her dodge dance helps her, though, and the midget finally tuckers out. But completely. Now that his offense was burned out... it was time for the defense. As the boot to the head comes... he just ducks.
That works a LOT.
Suddenly, the midget takes one of those clawed hands, and dives right for the joint where the leg meets the body. With one of HIS classic moves, he will attempt to slam the girl right to the ground... for MORE mischief.

At this point, Mizuki takes nothing for granted--except that should Choi get his hands on her, pain will follow shortly. This is something she tries to avoid. Case in point--the diving lunge. Mizuki is expecting... if not this, then something similar, and she finds herself prepared for it, leaping upwards, tucking her legs underneath her. The fight is dragging on--neither fighter capable, it seems, of finishing things in a single climatic blow.
Doesn't stop either of them from trying; Mizuki hurls herself around, aiming to chop Choi in the shoulder or the back as he passes underneath her. It's very similar to something she's seen Makoto do... of course, Makoto hits it right and Mizuki's is more than a touch awkward, but it'll service, in a pinch. She's breathing hard though, looking somewhat weary at how this fight's gone so far.
She didn't expect easy--far from it--but this is becoming extremely tiresome... -physically-.

The midget's attempt and bringing Mizuki down fails. Well, speed wasn't his strong point in terms of attacks. He just danced around really well. Really really well. So when Mizuki moves in for the powerful chop for the back... Choi just does a cute little shuttle around.
Wait, you are breathing hard?
BAD MOVE!
"KEE HEE HEE!" The little man giggles as suddenly, as he still remains by the legs, he suddenly decides to make a gamble. With an explosion of wind, he begins to spin like a top. Claws out, he shoots up, trying to suck poor Mizuki into the whirlwind. Maybe THAT would mess her up!

... it's that tornado... -again-. She -is- tired... but she has to try her best, doesn't she? So she summons up what reserves she can, trying to jump back, out of the way of the spinning Choi. Her fatigue, all of that... it makes her just a fraction too slow. By the time she's pushing away, Choi's blades, his chi, are slashing into her, again. Fortunately she manages to stay grounded at least--but the damage is done, for all that.
Staggering, bleeding... she makes one last effort. On the verge of collapse she aims for where she thinks Choi is going to be... and unleashes a wave of her chi. Still strong, but fading, as Mizuki lacks the reserves to maintain the presence of her energy. Given the speed Choi's shown throughout hte fight, she's simply gambling... on what? Nothing perfect--she can't win, not from this position. But she has to try, doesn't she?
Afterwards, she'll collapse, folding in on herself--clearly done with fighting, as medics run in to staunch the bleeding, to let the body's natural processes take over.

'That tornado' is what does the trick for Choi. What was a long exchange between two quick opponents finally ends when the midget sucks Mizuki into his whirling blades of death. The fact she isn't brought up might have helped somewhat, in the sense that she doesn't get further damage. On the downside, her explosion of energy is based on where the midget will land. Tracking Choi on where he is supposed to be is tricky, especially when he breaks into one of his rolls.
Which he does, in fact. As he lands, the little man immediately tumbles along the ground at high speed, moving both horizontal and away from the girl. Her chi blast simply tears the grass... and that's it. The medical professionals go to help the poor girl, which matters little to the midget. Hell, as he breaks from the roll, he barely notices the judge declaring the little man's win. There was only one thing he cared about at the moment: His pictures. Moving the scoop up the pictures, he was glad he noticed them before the priestess did. How come?
Well, there was one bad one with Mizuki in the locker room.
COMBATSYS: Choi has ended the fight here.
