Terry - Scooby Doo Mysteries, vol. 1

Description: Terry goes looking for information relating to Geese's death. He finds a first-class ass-kicking by way of the God of Muay Thai.



It has been a busty few months for Shadaloo. With most operations moving out of Thailand and into China there has been alot of work to do. Not to mention NESTS has been trying to cause some trouble has well. The two factions have clashed quite a bit. That has left little time for even the higher ups to find free time to do things. Sagat is one of the few that can take time to go persue their own agendas, but even then it isn't for a prolonged time. With Igniz and his lackeys causing problems all the big names in Shadaloo usually have to be around to teach those worthless wannabes a lesson.

Even so Sagat has decided to take some of his spare time in tracking down more prominent names for reasons more involving himself than Shadaloo. In this case he used the information network of Shadaloo to be tracking down Terry Bogard. He isn't a major thorn in Shadaloo's side, but he is still a mark they keep tabs on given how strong he is. As long as he isn't being a problem to the organization there is no real reason to mess with him. Of course the former Emporer of Muay Thai has other ideas.

It isn't so much that he wants too provoke the fighter to interfere with Shadaloo and their dealings as of late, but more of a personal interest for Sagat. He wishes to challenge the man more to help steel himself and prepare for his next chance at fighting Ryu one on one. For that he must fight the strongest men known and Terry certainly is that.

Coincidence was a wonderful thing.

With all the events following the collapse of Geese Tower, one of the first people that would likely be blamed for the horrible death of Geese Howard was nowhere in sight. And remained as such for months. Staying out of contact with the world in general, it was time for Terry Bogard to get a little more training in. Anyone who was able to not only defeat Geese, but bring down all of Geese Tower, wasn't someone that the Wolf was going to be able to take lightly.

One of the only breaks he'd been taking lately was to go gather information. Sometimes asking, and sometimes punching the inspiration into thugs and hoodlums on the street until he made his way across a very tell-tale name: Shadaloo. But this just led to more questions. Why would Shadaloo want Geese dead? And was he actually dead? Terry, in particular, isn't one to believe that Geese Howard is dead without seeing the corpse and at least four validated doctors' reports. For the time being, though, he's taken to practice again, going through some basic repetitions of punches and kicks that hit only air. Either he hasn't seen Sagat yet, or he hasn't acknowledged him.

If there were answers to be had on what Shadaloos involvement in the defeat of Geese, Sagat was the one that does not have those answers. He had tried to stay away from the organization, but when Vega is ready to take the initiative on causing problems there is little the large fighter could do to avoid being brought back into the fold. It has been a wild ride for Sagat as of late. Fighting with Juri and being brought back to Shadaloo and then suddenly finding out Adon is working for the organization as well. There is at least the small comfort of knowing that Adon really is the bitch of Shadaloo at the moment at least.

Even so there has been many missions to be taken. The failed warning towards Gen and his organization then the success of sending a message to NESTS when he met Krizalid. Of course none of this really has helped Sagat feel like he is accomplishing anything in his training to defeat Ryu. Then again he might never be able to find a true satisfaction in thinking he is ready to fight that man. There is always more training to be had.

"The wolf has been a very hard prey to find." comes the rather monotone and deep voice of the Muay Thai practitioner. Sagat had watched Terry for awhile before making himself known. It is scary that a man so large can keep hidden when he wants to be. "Tell be. Are you still as strong as people claim?"

If there's any surprise to be had in Sagat's arrival, it certainly doesn't show in Terry's voice. He continues through the end of his routine, then he reaches his arms up over his head, stretching them out while a long, lazy yawn forces its way out. "Well. Never would have figured someone I wanted to talk to would come and find me like that." He looks over his shoulder, tossing an almost pleasant-looking grin over towards the.. Emperor? God? Muay Thai royalty, in the very least. "We need to have a chat, you and I, Sagat." Slowly, he turns back to face the giant Thai man. "But, doesn't sound like chatting over a drink is quite on your mind."

With a sigh of fake resignment, Terry hops on the balls of his feet a few times to get the ol' blood flowing. Practicing as he just was, it just never really wakes him up like knowing there's about to be a fight. "So let's get your question out of the way, then we can get to mine, hm?" Without much more warning beyond the hint of violence at the end of his sentence, Terry pushes hard of his back foot, suddenly rocketing forward as his right leg lifts off the ground, right foot dragging behind. The second he starts moving, he throws his left hand out, which erupts in a heavy blue fireball of energy that licks all the way up his forearm. Knuckles first, he aims to bury that fireball of a fist straight into Sagat's facemeat. "BURN KNUCKLE!"

No, a drink does not seem to be what Sagat looks to have in mind. A talk with Terry is something he wishes to have, but not before he truely understands the full capability of the man he is facing. He truely hopes Terry can provide enough of a challenge to where Sagat feels it will help him in his training overall. That first blow at least proves that Terry still has a good amount of fight left in him as that fist manages to slam into Sagat's face and knock the larger fighter back several steps before he manages to regain his balance.

"An exchange over a drink is something that would be reserved for a later date. This is more for me to find answers to some questions I have." he replies to Terry once he regains his composure. That single eye narrows a bit and he steps forward as his large hands grasp to grab Terry by his jacket and heft him up. "Afterwards I will see what I can answer for you, but I am not sure if I have the answers you seek." he admits while attempting to pick Terry up and giving him a nice toss that would sent the other fighter tumbling several feet away from the God of Muay Thai.

As familiar as Terry is with the practices of Muay Thai, it goes to reason that he was expecting something more along the lines of say... punches or kicks. Maybe something fiery thrown in his face. When the larger fighter goes in to grab at him instead, there's a note of surprise on Bogard's face. Ass over teakettle he goes into the air, managing to land right the hell on a rock, back-first, in the process. If it hurts, though, there's no visible display of pain across his face. Instead, he just rolls onto his stomach, then hops back up to his feet again. "Well, let's worry about that afterwards, then. Hardly a full fight if we spend half of it talking."

The initial idea is to rush in and just start throwing blows. But the God of Muay Thai may very well be expecting a strike. So rush in Terry does, but instead of coming in with arms raised, he tries to grapple his way past Sagat's defenses. Should he be able to force his way past those oversized tree limbs that Sagat calls arms, he'll reach up and grab behind that bald head before yanking it down to his level, which will put him just at the right level when a sharp uppercut comes in to send the Thai man reeling.

Sagat would have to agree. There is no reason to talk now. The best form of communication is with the the fists of each fighter. There are questions that can be answered later once this is done. For now Sagat must know if he truely still has as much strength as he once did. He needs that and more to be able to compete with the likes of Ryu if they are to ever cross paths again. "I agree. Let us see how we fare tonight." With that he goes quiet and instead seems intent on what Terry would do next.

He seems to be a few steps ahead of Terry at the moment at least. Putting a decent about of distance between the two fighters has allowed Sagat to formulate what his next move would be. Even as Terry starts to come forward with an attempt to grapple the larger fighter, Sagat is already in motion to counter the other fighter. He leans in low and when Terry is in range there is a sharp uppercut as the large and powerful fist slams into Terry's Jaw. "TIIIIIIGEEEEEEER!" the larger fighter yells upon launching himself upwards with that powerful strike that will knock Terry back away from him again. "UPPERCUT!" After a bit of a spin Sagat lightly lands on his feet with arms raised and prepared for whatever Terry might have to offer in return.

Well, he certainly didn't see that coming.

All Terry sees for the next few seconds is the sky, vaulted, sent airborne like a sack of potatoes. Finally, he lands with a rather unceremonious >thud< on the floor, crashing with enough impact that a lesser fighter may have very well crumpled from that strike. And for a couple seconds, Terry does stay down before rolling back onto his shoulders, then kipping back to his feet once again. "Huh. Gotten a bit faster while I've been gone, eh?" Gloved hands slap to either of his cheeks in an attempt to wake himself up, then he crouches just a little, hands balling into fists before his entire body explodes in a bright flare of angry blue chi. The center of the energy flickers like fire, and the edges whip like find about the tips of the blue flames, and this is held for several seconds before snuffing out as quickly as it started. The grin comes to Terry's lips again, and one hand lifts to beckon Sagat in.

"Hey! C'mon, c'mon!"

COMBATSYS: Terry gathers his will.

Terry            2/<<<<<<</<<<<<<<|====---\-------\0            Sagat


There is a slight smirk that plays along the larger fighter's features, but he knows there is plenty of fight left in Terry despite such a powerful blow being landed. To think he has the upperhand would only show he has learned nothing after all this time since his defeat all those many years ago. He thought he had all things in hand that day as well only to be left with a scar both to his body and mind. He will not make that sort of mistake again.

Instead of rushing in the tiger stalks his prey. Slowly the larger fighter begins to circle Terry, that single eye focused on the other fighter. "No. I am not so easily taunted these days." he replies to the younger fighter. He seems to be drawing upon the energy around him. The air is growing thicker as his fists glow faintly with an orange outline. Sagat is not yet fully ready to strike, but he is taking his time and deciding on what to do next with Terry. For now they both seem to be at a standstill.

COMBATSYS: Sagat gathers his will.

[           \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\  < >  /////////////////////////     ]
Terry            2/<<<<<<</<<<<<<<|=======\-------\1            Sagat


A slow roll of the shoulders is all that greets Sagat in response to his comment while the other fighter is busily gathering his own energy. "No tauntin', just a comment. Seems like you've gotten a bit faster." The Hungry Wolf chuckles quietly, then brushes some of the dirt from the ground off his pantlegs. Once he's finished, though, the brim of the older Bogard brother's hat is pulled down just a little. There's a standstill, and someone's going to have to break it. And that's going to, apparently, happen In Grand Fashion(tm).

Terry's head rolls to one side, then the other, cracking his neck before he finally settles back into his usual fighting stance. He takes one step, two, three to close the distance brought about by his impromptu lesson of flight. A few quickly jogged steps bring him within range, then he starts to glide across the floor again. One leg up, the other trailing behind. The energy at his fist is crackling angrily already as it's brought up, first mimicking the motions of the Burn Knuckle. It's faster than before, though, nearly a blur in comparison. Right before impact, though, the leg that was lifted up suddenly drops, planting his heel and digging it in behind him, and the blue chi abruptly shifts to a brilliant golden shine right as he aims to bury that fist into Sagat's face a second time.

"AHH YUU OUKEI!?"

It truely is a fight to that is oddly taking place in such a tranquil area. The park out in Southtown isn't exactly a place that was ready for such a battle. Still it is late enough that the two titans could clash without people coming across them given the late hour. The teen couples sneaking out into the park to get some kissy time are probably fleeing if they happened to be nearby. Of course given the clash the sheer amount of energy being released might be enough to draw attention from the distance.

Sagat stands his ground when Terry seems to break the standoff. His feet dig in firmly and he raises his arms as Terry comes in to deliver that powerful blow. Despite managing to stop it from hitting full force the forearms of the larger fighter are left throbbing as he staggers back a few steps. "You are quite impressive. I wonder if you are on the same level as he is." the God of Muay Thai muses. He takes a few steps back again, but then he takes another step forward before going down on a knee. His hands flash with that powerful energy he has gathered as he thrusts both fists forward. "TIGER!" he cries out loudly as a discharge of energy leaves his hands with the intent on hitting Terry square in the chest.

Ah, the Buster Wolf. It was one of the blonde's favorite techniques, but so often were people expecting it. This was would still serve him well, though; maybe some tweaks on the delivery were in order to make sure it starts hitting its mark in the future. "I don't really try to compare myself to other people that much, y'know? I just try enjoy what fights I do get into." is the response to Sagat's idle musing, without even figuring out who he might be compared to. ... then, again with the Tiger. Terry was starting to hate cats, thanks to this fight. He's heard the word Tiger enough times, with burning pain quickly following, to get him through the next month or more. Not only does the fireball slam square into his chest, but it sends him flying backwards with enough force that he drags through the grass, leaving a line of mud in his trail before he comes to a stop a few feet later. He blinks once from his back. "Da/yamn/." After rolling quickly to his stomach, the Wolf climbs back up to his feet and turns to face Sagat once again.

Gloved hands slap to his cheeks as he finds his feet again, and his head rolls, popping his neck until he's upright and turned back to face the Muay Thai god. From that spot, a slow breath is taken before his head dips in a nod. "Good fight." He looks up from under the brim of his cap, then grins before his right hand lifts skyward. It balls into a fist as it drops to the ground, slamming his knuckles deep into the dirt. Energy flares up around the point of impact, and a wave of chi carves another line through the grass as a wave about knee-high starts to rip straight towards Sagat, looking to take his feet out from underneath him.

"POWAH WAVE!"

Terry            1/-------/=======|=======\=====--\1            Sagat


The God of Muay Thai must not have been in a great mood today and his attitude at the moment seems to show just that. He has pulled no punches and there seems to be only one thing on his mind at this point. He aims to give all he has right now just to see if he still has enough skill to consider himself on par of Ryu. Terry just happens to be the poor guy that got found first beyond all the others. When he just travels mostly through Southtown that does make him an easy target afterall. Even as that wave of energy hurtles towards him Sagat starts to step forward. His brow furrows and his hands glow with energy again as he yells loudly and throws his hands forward to slam into that incoming blast. The energy he releases is enough for both to clash and dissipate.

Though with that energy dissipated there is still more gathered around Sagat. He growls a bit under his breath as he straightens up and rears his hands back. His hands ignite again full of energy much more than the previous time as he quickly thrusts both hands forward again, a large gathering of energy forming and firing right towards the hobo. "AHHHHHHHHHHH!" he yells loudly and the large blast aims to bowl the other fighter over.

Terry            1/------=/=======|====---\-------\0            Sagat


Even if Sagat's in a rather bad mood, the Lonely Wolf seems rather cheerful in comparison. Granted, he's not throwing flowers and initiating a goddamn parade, but he certainly seems pleasant enough for the beating that he's taking at the hand of the Thai giant right now. Even seeing the energy sent across the park blasted into nothing, there's no real disappointment across Terry's face, only preparing for what's next to come. Eyes widen slightly at the sheer size of the coming onslaught, and he braces his heels behind him, arms coming up in an X over his chest and face. The energy collides there, leaving singemarks against his forearms before arms come apart, disappating what remains of the cannon shot.

Far be it for Terry to be left out of the game of strength, though. With Sagat putting his own massive blast forward, it's the blonde's turn to respond with his own. When his arms come apart to clear the remaining energy from Sagat's projectile away, his right hand goes notably higher than the left afterwards.

"POWAH..."

His fingers ball into a fist again, and once again, gloved knuckles meet the ground. This time, there's no wave. Out of nowhere, a massive explosion projects from Terry's fist, almost as tall as Sagat himself. That bright blue energy flares up as it springs forth, aiming to run the God of Muay Thai over like an out of control truck.

"... GEYSAHHH!"

The energy around his hands fades and Sagat stands up straight once again. His single eye remains focused on the wolf and he stalks forward towards the other fighter. "I tell you what, Bogard." he says while cracking his knuckles and seeming ready to pounce again. "I believe I am stuck with a certain dictator you want to have words with. I shall relay the message either way since you are providing me sport tonight." He then stops in his tracks when he notices Terry powering up once again. He seems intent on holding his ground when the fighter unleashes another blast that hurtles towards the large fighter. He takes a deep breath and holds his hands out again.

The energy slams into those opened hands and splashes off of them. While not as much as it was last time there is an obvious flash of energy formed around the meaty paws of the tiger that fades once he is sure there is no harm that will come to him from his blast. "Let us get more close and personable!" He roars and reaches outwards to grab Terry by his shirt. He will then attempt to slam his large left knee into Terry three times before he would toss the battered fighter aside afterwards.

Terry            0/-------/----===|=====--\-------\0            Sagat


While all the practice in the world could prepare Terry for fighting, there's one thing it couldn't prepare him for: defense. And his defense was certainly lacking after going so long without getting himself into a scrap. The meaty fingers of the Thai man manage to get into his shirt, and all the wind is knocked out of him in the first breath. He can only wheeze as the second, then the third knee collide in rapid succession, and he's thus tossed aside like a rag-doll. He takes a moment to catch his breath before raising a hand to offer the thumbs-up. "Appreciate it." Slowly, he rolls back onto his stomach, then pushes right back up, climbing to his feet. He's hurting, no doubt, but he's not about to give up yet.

Hmm. Getting close and personable? May as well stick to the theme. A few quick steps forward to close the distance are taken, and one hand comes up as if he were preparing to throw a sharp strike towards Sagat's chest or face. Instead, though, he reaches past his head, trying to get a grip around the back of his neck. Should he get that grip, he'll pull the taller man down, down low enough that the other hand can raise up and slam leather-covered knuckles into his face in a sharp uppercut.

It doesn't seem to even be overconfidence in Sagat at the moment. It seems more that he just seems intent on inflicting pain on Terry without any true regard on what damage might be done to himself. He has made no real move to get out of the way of any attack and even now when it seems like he thought he could get his defenses up in time against Terry's strike he is fooled enough that he finds himself grasped and left without many options at all. The rare option he has now is to step forward right into that strike that slams into his jaw and jerks his head back and sends him staggering back a few steps after being released.

He reaches up to wipe the blood that leaks from one corner of his mouth and he gives a small nod in respect to the power the much smaller fighter has. It takes alot of strength to be able to hit the Muay Thai fighter and make him truely feel it. This truely is a learning experience. With a slight grin forming he brings up a leg and he brings it about quickly, aiming to slam it right into the face of Terry with bone crushing force.

The nod is returned with one of his own. There's no doubt that Terry respects Sagat; he did before the fight, and certainly now that he's been face to face with the Muay Thai God. The bruises and likely cracked ribs were testament enough to that. Finally, though, his reflexes were starting to catch up with what he wanted the rest of his body to do. When Sagat's leg goes up to face-level, Terry crouches underneath the upraised leg. From that crouch, it's instinct alone that tells him to just spring forward, aiming to slam his shoulder right into the larger man's breastbone. Regardless of whether contact is made, Terry will continue forward unless Newton's Laws dictate otherwise, and should he manage to succeed in his initial strike, he'll continue forward until gravity starts to pull him downward. Right as he meets Sagat again on his descent, a blue-glowing fist, flickering with barely-stable energy aims to drive itself right back down into his chest.

"POWAH DANK!"

Terry            1/-------/=======|===----\-------\0            Sagat


That large leg finds nothing but air and he quickly snaps the leg back down to plant hard on the ground in preparation for whatever Terry might be doing in retaliation. Sagat is surprised and pleased by the tenacity of the fighter. He is pleased to be having this fight tonight even if his expression is that of one that is of utter seriousness. It isn't an expression that even changes as he leaps forward in defiance to the strike that is being aimed at him and the two titans clash up in the air.

While Terry goes for his chest with a powerful shoulder tackle Sagat aims to slam his knee right into Terry even as he takes the massive blow to the chest. Though before Terry is able to land his second strike Sagat is quick enough to land on his feet and launch himself upwards once again with a powerful uppercut that slams into the blond's chin and knocks him backwards again as the God of Muay Thai spins about in the air and soon comes to land on his feet.

Ow.

There's no other way to put it. /Ow./ He felt his knuckles land solidly, but the response from Sagat, so quickly turning around and sending the Hungry Wolf flying. Fight it as he might, he's been knocked ass over teakettle enough to earn frequent flier miles, and it's not long before Terry's on his back again, laying on the ground as if he were doing yet another impersonation of somebody's mother. There's a notable delay in getting to his feet this time, and while he's standing, there's a slight wobble in his stance. "Man.. talk about a crash course in Muay Thai." Somehow, still with the jokes.

It's sort of a last-ditch effort as he rushes forward. Maybe he doesn't figure that Sagat will expect the same attack twice, but punch-drunk as Terry is, he just brings his shoulder down in an attempt to lodge it into Sagat's sternum.

The shoulder makes contact, but there's not enough behind it for Terry to get proper footing for the spring forward. Rather than push forward, he jumps back away again, and his arms come up in a boxer's stance, more preparing to defend himself than continue forward. Somehow, despite the staggering, he's still on his feet.

It is always amazing how despite how battered some people seem to be how they can manage to stand when all is said and done. Terry has done an impressive job at that right now. Sagat has not been easy on him and yet that man still manages to stand even after dealing with some of his strongest strikes. Would he have to perhaps use the pinnacle of his training to put this man down? He refuses to believe that to be the case and he only can hold his arms up to absorb the brunt of the strike from Terry. "I hope it is a lesson well learned." he tells his opponent as he lowers his arms and he takes a deep breath.

Even if he has taken the lesser side of the beatings he is starting to feel a bit worn out just from the exertion of each power move he has been performing. He has been throwing all his strength into each strike and he can feel his body starting to respond by feeling a bit sore in a few places. He might have to strike that finishing blow quickly. He lumbers forward once again, this time aiming to give a quick combination of quick strikes with his hands that aim to slam into the torso of Terry.

Terry... has a valuable lesson to learn from this. Don't fuck with Muay Thai. When Sagat's fists come raining, there's an attempt made to get out of the way, but it's quickly overwhelmed in a rain of knuckles that quickly bruise the torso of the Wolf, if not break a rib or three in the process. An audible wheezing is heard at the same time, and once again, it looks like the blonde is on the verge of keeling over right where he stands. Rather than falling over, though, he just throws his weight forward in a last-ditch attempt to bury his fist square into Sagat's chestmeats. He throws his entire self behind it, fist flaring a bright, angry blue for just a moment at the point of impact as he aims to bruise a few ribs of the other man in the process, on his way down, down...

Each of those fists find their mark and there is a light 'hnn' that comes from Sagat when even that doesn't seem to be enough to fell Terry at this point. His breathing has started to get heavier and despite trying to mask it he is visibly being worn out from this encounter. Muscles ache and protest when he wishes to move in a quick manner which is why even as Terry comes hurtling in the best the larger fighter can do is once again brace for impact and meet the man head on.

He shifts his stance to where the strike smacks into him, but not at the power Terry probably hoped it would have. It still rocks the giant slightly and he manages to sort of use a hand to grip the slumping fighter by his shirt and keep him hefted upwards. He tries to let Terry regain his footing and balance before letting go and he visibly goes prone. He is a bit too tired to try and keep fighting. "Bogard, you remind me alot of the one I need to defeat. I appreciate this fight."

He steps away and he folds his arms over his chest as he looks down at Terry with that single eye while taking a few deep breaths to try and gain some energy back. "I do not know what you are looking for in regards to Vega and I am unsure if I can answer any questions." he admits while closing his eye momentarily. "If you want answers go to China. Shadaloo is there right now. Just pray we don't meet again in a more hostile environment."

COMBATSYS: Sagat has ended the fight here.
