Description: Looks like the SNF officials have fun at Naerose's expense once again. This time a promise of punch and pie leads to her having to instead fight Megane and Faolan who is supposed to recreate the Salam witch trials....in a less deadly way at least. (Winner: Megane and Faolan)
There's a grave dug for Naerose a little in front of the house, complete with a headstone with her birth and 'death' date. The fields have been recently harvested, so at least that's not an issue. Cameras have been set up in various places, including the windows of the second floor of the house.
Megane walks out towards the theatrical grave that has been dug for Naerose, shaking his head a little as he looks around. "...This is in bad taste." Exploiting people's deaths for cinema is one thing, but this one is tacky and places him in a unpopular role. Still, he agreed to it before he knew the details, and he's a man of his word. He looks around at all the stunt people who are gathering to play the part of the townspeople, and leans against his pitchfork a little.
The thought of doing this sort of thing honestly has Faolan a bit uneasy as well. He doesn't like to really get bad karma by doing some sort of fighter's remake of the Salem murders. Odd how the guy can feel that way when he is a mercenary that can at times be called upon to do some killing. Still it is just another fight and he has to admit he is interested in the fact he is teamed with that odd youth that decided to give him a nice headache not long ago. He is starting to think he just needs to avoid the school kids in Southtown after Miu went to all the trouble to track him down in Brazil for a spar of all things.
There is no real torch for him in this case. He isn't letting them set his bata on fire and he can't exactly fight with a torch in one hand and his bata in another. That is why the torch he carries is more like a tiki torch he jams into the ground beside the gravestone before tching lightly. "Some people got a twisted sense of humor, aye?" he asks Megane as he waits for the witch to show up.
Meanwhile is just here.. because, "Ahh, I was led to be under the impression there would be punch and pie?" The witch looks around, fixes her shades, sees that there is in fact no punch or pie. "Man, this is totally lame!" she exclaims and starts to look around, poking things with her broom. Perhaps there is punch or pie in there? She notices the stone and stares at it a while,
"Huh, I didn't know there was another person with that name. . " She takes off her hat, but leaves her shades on, "Ah, okay moment of silence over.." She turns away and starts to look around. "Hmmmm.. there are people here.. Hey ! Anyone know where the punch and pie is?" Everyone looks really serious. Man, that's going to be a drag too. Probably upset there isn't any punch and pie.
...That girl is Naerose? Megane raises an eyebrow slightly. He raises his pitchfork, and his voice. "It seems like people like to do nothing better than lie." A slight smile as he looks over to Faolan, then he returns his gaze to the witch. "Perhaps you'll manage to find some punch or pie after this funeral."
He walks towards Naerose, the pitchfork leaned against his shoulder. "Either way, let's get on with this!"
There is a bit of a smirk from the mercenary from the comment that Megane makes and his gaze moves over to the rather odd woman with a broom. They really want two people to go up against her? He quirks a brow and just has to wonder what this woman is capable of to be able to handle two people at once. Then again they never seem to make things too uneven from Faolan's experiences. The promoters are good at judging the strengths of each fighter and set things up in accordance to whatever data they have on the people.
"I don't know anything about punch or pie, but I know we got ourselves a witch to put in the grave." he tells Naerose while reaching up to tip his hat. "Sorry if you got duped, but don't hold it against us since this is about to get messy." He just grins wide and he raises up his bata and holds an end in each hands as he takes a deep breath and gets ready for the fight to come.
"Woahahwhwhao, " Naerose says, and holds up her hand, "So first you're telling me there is no punch and pie and that you're here for something and we're supposed to get on with it? I mean obviously, we're supposed to get on with punch and pie." She frowns and scratches her head, fixing her hat and adjusting her shades,
"What do you think we're here for?" She asks and totally fails to atch on. "This is weird.
Naerose clenches his hand into a fist. Is this some kind of mental trick that she's using? If so, she's pretty used to this act. "We're here for a fight. I'm afraid that I've agreed to fight you with the Saturday Night Fight organizers, so if you have a problem with it, you should contact them quite quickly."
With that, he walks straight up to her, although not making an aggressive move yet, and stares her in the eyes - er, sunglasses. He adds too low for the cameras to hear, barely moving his lips, "Also, Faolan, that guy who put down the torch, already ate all the pie and drank all the punch."
There is one thing Faolan is starting to realize about his partner in this fight. Megane seems to be quite the person to stir up trouble no matter what situation it would seem. He just raises a brow when he is accused of being the one that has devored the pie and chased it down with punch. "Not much of a pie or punch person, but eh. If that floats your boat and gets you riled up I guess I did just that." he says while nodding to Naerose.
He decides to stop hanging back though. It seems like words aren't really doing anything to convince Naerose that this is a fight. That is why he decides to just step forward and he lets go of one end of his bata and he instead quickly brings it down at the Naerose's head where it may just hit and make a *donk* noise when wood meets forehead.

Her eyes widen, you can see it happen over the top of her shades and then she is attacked. Nae raises her broom and deflects it off to the side. He is totally after her and on top of that, "You ate all of the good stuff, man that's so not cool." She broods and then narrows her eyes, fixes her shades and says, "Give em back, I'll make you give them back."
She raises her broom, over her head and shouts, "I'll make you give me back all of the punch and pie!" She totally swings her broom at Faolan's head.
Megane looks over to Faolan with a smile. "You have good hearing. Too bad we're not fighting each other." He blinks as Faolan just steps in and attacks.
"Well, I'm afraid I'm on Faolan's side at the moment." And with that, he lashes out with a kick towards Naerose, although the actual kick doesn't quite make contact - just a blade of wind that slices out from his foot.

Well that certainly kicks things off. He just grins in response to Megane. "I did say name a time and a place, fellah." he says with a chuckle while keeping his attention on Naerose and how she moves that broom about. This looks like it might make for an interesting matchup. He ends up being able to get his bata in place to easily deflect the strike from the broom and he gives a nod to the female fighter. "Not bad. A bit of a raw form, but has promise."
He then seems to jump into action again. With Naerose in close like that he pushes off his feet with the intent of driving his shoulder into the witch and knock her off balance. There really is nothing fancy about his attack since he just follows it up with an attempt to just headbutt the witch and drive her back further. "Hah!"

"Woah! WOAH!" cries Naerose when two attacks. ! Come her way, "Wait, how come, Eeek!" she exclaims and hops onto her broom stick, the best way to get out of the way, is to get out of the way! She launches into the air, the only place they probably weren't planning on attacking, but it isn't like she can fly, instead she curves around and aims her broom toward one of her attackers,
"Man, I'm totally not okay with that, but you attacked me too. Oh man ,I'm so confused!" She launches her broom stick at a crash landing toward the guy farther away. . Megane. Either she'll hit him and she'll break her inevitable crash, or she'll just crash anways.

Megane catches hold of the point of the broom with his free hand, although it still hits him in the chest much softer, the total force makes him stagger back several steps as he redirects it away from 'straight into the ground'. He releases the broom, and backs up further, keeping his eyes on Naerose, and raises a hand up to adjust his glasses. "You're a lot more skilled than you look."

Well he has to admit he didn't expect Naerose to be able to leap up that high. The Irishman looks upwards as she manages to avoid both strikes and sails away. This time though she ends up going right for Megane instead this time. He hopes the kid can take care of himself. Kids these days seem somewhat indestructible anyways. Instead Faolan just needs to keep focused on keeping his own hide from being tanned. This girl is a bit on the erratic side so who knows where the next strike will come.
He steadies himself after missing his strike and he waits for Naerose herself to touch ground and let herself be distracted by Megane. That is when the Ikari swings low with his bata to slam into the back of Naerose's legs and try to take them out from under the witch and send her to the ground. "Gotcha!"

Naerose decides to roll with the throw, because really, it's better than getting hurt, but she still gets flung, "Wooooah!" she exclaims and eats a little bit of dirt. "Oh man that totally stung," She complains and gets back to her feet. "How come there are two of you and one of me." She whines, then looks between her opponents. "Ahh.. Screw it. Take this."
She holds out her palm and exclaims, "En Criento!"
And tries to blast him with an explosion like wind at Me.. whatever his name is.

"Presumably because you're so good, but ask the organizer." Megane shakes his head a little. She must have been informed of this and just not bothered to remember... right?
He raises his own palms, holding them towards Naerose with his fingered curled, and moves his hands in a semi-circle, creating a series of wind blades - which are promptly brushed aside by Naerose's explosion, which knocks Megane back, and he falls to the ground, his head only missing the gravestone by a few inches.
If she is attempting to play dumb she is certainly doing well at it. Faolan is really starting think she is some person they gave a broom and sent them stumbling towards certain doom. Then again he isn't fully fooled given the fact she is taking on two people and doing rather well. The fact she manages to get a solid hit on Megane and stagger him pretty well is proof that she has skill. She might just be forgetful or likes to play dumb. Oh yeah, Faolan has never gotten to enjoy meeting Naerose before and it shows.
He tchs a bit and doesn't seem to be able to land a solid hit once again on the witch. He will just have to keep pressing in hopes of finally being able to do something. He comes forward again and feints a thrust with his bata, but it is more as a distraction as he actually brings up a foot and attempts to kick at the hip of the witch.

Whipping her broom up, Naerose tries to deflect the kick off to the side so as to not take such a pinful hit, man getting hit hurts. Naerose is pretty sure of that and she shows it with her look of utter, "Hey, what did I do to you, why did you eat the punch and while I'm at it, pie!" She pouts a little and then says, "What is it with you people and fighting? I mean, someone talking about fighitng this and that, I visit this place for the first time and then .. oh nevermind," Naerose tries to hook Faolon's foot with her broom and trip him.
"Time to cut my losses and totally run for it."
Megane rolls back up to his feet, grabbing the pitchfork as he does so. "You say that, but you're fighting, not 'cutting your losses and running'. Fighting is in your blood too. Or you're just trying to play us for fools." He doesn't believe the latter one, but it'll make anything he does seem a little less mean if others think *he* believes it. He swings the handle of the pitchfork at her back, using it like a baseball bat.

He has to wonder which one of these two are a better liar. Not like he has enough time to really mull that over too much. He is more trying to keep track of Naerose and her movements which pays off in this case since she has turned her attention to him. He steadies himself and that broomstick slams into him and elicits a grunt. "I am starting to think you need to look over things more closely before you sign them." he tells the witch and he decides to try and strike while she is close in.
He hopes to catch her off guard enough that he can slam one end of his bata right into her chest. The bata itself crackles and black energy spirals around it and ends up surging to the tip of the wooden implement and blast right into Naerose.

The baton comes toward Naerose and she gets struck on the chest, stumbling back a few steps before just bringing her broom to deflect the pitch fork. Well she's going to argue. "What? I'm a -witch- didn't you see me fly on my broomstick? I'm a witch not a fighter, I don't like to punch people and that form said punch and pie, or at least punch, but who doesn't assume pie when you have punch. . " She continues to whine and seems to be considering just what to do, who to attack. She chooses Megane again and tries to get him back by kicking him in the shin, "Man, back off!"

"Tell me, then, if you would: What exactly are you doing right now?" Megane shakes his head a little, and then stumbles back when Naerose kicks him in the shin, grimacing. He takes a few more steps backwards, and hurls his pitchfork straight at her, pointy end first.
"If you say you surrender, drop your broom, and stop fighting, I'll stop attacking you."
It is rare when the Ikari can consider himself the normal one when there is a fight going on. Naerose herself might be enough to drive some people right up the wall. Throw in Megane who seems to enjoy twisting things he says and ends up being confusing in another manner Faolan figures a few people would just run from this fight screaming.
That might just be why Faolan was thrown into this match. Honestly he is grinning at this point and trying not to laugh his ass off. "That is why we are having a witch burning!" he tells her and gives his head a shake. "The grave is for you. They probably told you punch and pie were involved to get you out here." He kind of doesn't get the memo from Megane though and instead he is thrusting his bata forward like it is some sort of rapier he intends to jab into the witch. "I think this one is a bit too loopy to believe that, fellah."

"I'm so not laying my broom down, it's my broom! I never leave it anywhere. Seriously, I am not leaving this thing behind, never no way. . no how." Instead she mounts her broom and turns it toward Faolon, this time she launches to just miss him.
"No offense, but I don't believe you, I want that punch and pie and I want it like totally now." She -tries- to grab Faolon and drag him into the air, because just as she passes him she pulls up on the broom to shoot into the sky. . if she still has Faolon she'll drop him now.. and then soon find herself making an uncontrolled flight into terrain.

Megane sighs, and shrugs his shoulders. "Well, if you'd just trust me, I could end this fight, but seeing as you don't...." He leaps up into the air after Naerose, and attempts to grab onto her once she releases Faolan, then spin her around towards the ground, and send them both straight towards the ground. If successful, he'll let go a moment before they hit the ground, and slide away safely on a cushion of air chi.
Well he can understand the dropping the broom part. Faolan is always reluctant to drop his own weapon of choice. That bata is pretty much an extension of himself and pretty much family! So much for him being the normal one here if that is the case. Even so he seems ready to just keep himself right where he stands as the witch blasts by. What he didn't expect was being picked up off his feet and suddenly getting dragged upwards before he is let go and starts to go tumbling back to the ground.
There is a loud thud and a grunt as the Ikari lands. He is glad the ground itself was a grassy area and nothing like concrete because that fraggin' hurt. He picks himself up off is feet though and he stalks over towards the headstone. He can't do much with her up in the air like that so he is going to have to try and bring her down as he bites down on the bata and holds it between his teeth before he uses both hands to hurl the object towards the witch.

Man this sucks. Okay, now what. The which clearly needs to deal with him first.

"I already told you how you could surrender. If you choose not to take it, and instead keep on attacking me and Faolan here, then I'll do what I have to to defend myself." Megane rolls out of the way of Naerose's broom, then grabs onto her arm, and kicks at her leg, trying to take advantage of her committed strike to send her into the ground next to him.
Well she was grounded, but not in the way that Faolan had expected. He just gives a nod in appreciation when Megane manages to snag the witch out of the air and bring her back to the ground. "Nice going, fellah." he says after spitting out the bata from between his teeth and catching it in his hands again. He then takes a deep breath as he stalks forward. His pace soon quickens and the Ikari quickly closes the distance between himself and Naerose. He may have to adjust his swing if Megane manages to ground her, but the intent is all the same. He is bringing one end of that bata down to smack Naerose in the chest once again. "Hup!"

"Aww man, no way, this is so not the way this is going down, instead you're going to give me punch and pie, I am so not giving up on the punch and pie," Naerose exclaims and then when she's attacked by Faolan, she twists and spins and moves out of the way while helping Faolan keep moving with his momentum and then trying to place the pair of them in the way of well, each other, she holds up her hand and a bright flash explodes from it. No, no chi, just like a flash bang, without the bang. . The Witch's shades spare her the blinding flash before she gives Megane a full baseball swing of her broom, stumbling as she takes some of his throw.
Megane smiles at the mercenary. "Thank you, Faolan. I like to think when it comes to-" He is smacked down into the ground hard.
He looks up at Naerose. "This... this is the way it's going." His voice is a little weak, and although he tries to get to his feet, he can't, immediately. He just lies on the ground for the moment, watching her carefully.

All the protests and complaints really are falling onto at least one set of deaf ears at this point. The girl is strange, but she still is standing and on top of it she is landing some punishing hits. It also seems like she ight be getting a bit more serious now from the sounds of it. He squints and has to look away from the flash of whatever Naerose just did and he stumbles back a few steps. "Cripes...." he mumbles under his breath. He decides to take a moment to hold back on his attack and rethink things. Megane has taken a pretty good beating and Faolan himself is feeling a bit run down. That drop took alot out of him. He starts letting scenarios run through his mind as he decides to figure out what his next move will be. He is going to have to kick it into overdrive and finish this fast if he can.

And sure as Naerose really wishes that this was about punch and pie and still thinks there might be some pie somewhere, she flings those ice darts toward Megane, you know, before he can do something painful to her, doesn't care what though, anything painful is not fun.

That... really hurt, but Megane can't just keep on lying there, he realizes, as Naerose starts to throw darts towards him.
He spins his hands around, palms facing towards Naerose, and a gust of wind brings him back up to his feet. "As you wish." He spits out a little blood, and hundreds of blades of wind slide out of his hand, spiralling through the air towards her, cutting straight through the needles of ice. He doesn't need to be next to her to do something painful, after all.
If this girl is so set on getting pie Faolan feels like he should almost buy her one. If he only knew what sort of doom that might cause. Of course there is still some fighting to be done and who knows. Perhaps they really are going to give her what she wants after this is all said and done. At least he and Megane aren't really doing what they were supposed to do and that is set Naerose on fire or the like. Then again administered beatings just might be as bad.
He hangs back still, but his staff begins to crackle again and black energy begins gathering at a tip once more as he gives a nod. "All right. Lets finish this." he comments and he trusts that staff forward. The thrust causes the energy to erupt from the staff's end and forms into a small ball that comes sailing towards Naerose with the intent on slamming into the witch and giving her a nice electrical shock.

"I thought you wanted to fight a ranged battle." Megane blocks the swing with his palms, and takes a few steps back, glancing around quickly - the grave was already thrown, so.... Of course! The torch! Megane dives for it, then hurls it towards Naerose, lighting it up with a bit of extra oxygen to keep it burning while it flies through the air.
There is a bit of a grunt and Faolan shakes his head. "Slippery devil." he mumbles to himself. He has dealt with speedy people, but he is more used to them coming at him instead of just fleeing and going after someone else. "It ain't about wanting to be hit with it. Ya just get hit and stay down." Well at least that is how he wants it to happen. He has a feeling Naerose doesn't feel that way about it. He tells tchs and just steps forward and goes to chase down Naerose again and goes swinging about at her with his bata. He is feeling a bit winded from all this moving about he is having to do. This is why he prefers to just let his opponents come to him.

Knocking the torch aside with her broom, Nae finds herself still getting a little burned by it, then she deflects the bata off her side. Man she isn't doing so hot. "Hey, I really, Oh man what am I going to do!" She exclaims then decides she only has one choice,
"Here, you like this sort of thing, ah, have another, En Criento!"
And NAerose tries to blast Megane with her palm out again.

Faolan 1/-------/=======|====---\-------\0 Megane
Megane blocks the energy blast with both palms, and stumbles back, almost into the grave, and spirals his arms to keep from falling in before he recovers his balance. He then pushes his palm forward, sending out a gust of wind to knock Naerose back. "All is going according to plan." He raises a shaking hand up to adjust his glasses. "You're on your last legs. Even if you take me out, Faolan will win."
There is a swing and he at least feels something hit. The problem is she managed to move and let the blow glance off so it couldn't do much harm at all. She really seems to also not like Megane that much at all the way she just keeps swinging away at him. He has to give the kid props, though. He is still standing despite all of it. Sure he looks beat up and worn out, but the fact he can continue being a thorn in the side of Naerose and keep this odds in the favor of the two fighters is nice.
"You must not like schoolkids or something." he says in a bit of a deadpan tone and he ends up leaping forward and diving towards the legs while leading with his shoulder to bowl into the witch and send her sprawling.

Faolan 1/-------/=======|=====--\-------\0 Megane
Well one thing was right, Naerose was on her last leg. There was just no way she was going to be able to keep this up.
"I am -not- a fighter," the witch complains as she finds herself sent sprawling and stumbling and then practically tripping halfway into the grave. She's seriously almost fallen in ON HER OWN. But at least she didn't get set on fire. Hanging out on the ground and deciding getting up was not worth it (maybe too much work anyway) the witch comments,
"Aww man, you know what.. .." She pauses in thought and says, "Hey wait, is this when they deliver the punch and pie?"
COMBATSYS: Naerose takes no action.

Faolan 1/-------/=======|=====--\-------\0 Megane
Megane glances around, just in case someone says 'Surprise!' and throws a pie in Naerose's face. (The punch, of course, being what happened to her earlier) It wouldn't be particularly classy, but he doesn't suspect that the point of this fight was to be very classy.
Seeing no one jumping to the occassion, he shrugs his shoulders slightly. "That's between you and the one who promised you pie." And with those words, he turns away, because he suspects getting caught up in Naerose's conversation is not going to be pleasant.
He looks over to the Irishman with a smile. "Faolan, I'm looking forwards to our fight even more now, but I can't arrange it with you on air, wouldn't be fair to the sponsors. I'll find a way to contact you." And with that, he starts walking, in hopes of escaping before the fault of pie-not-having is placed in front of him.
COMBATSYS: Megane has left the fight here.

Faolan 1/-------/=======|
No, it doesn't look like any officials are making a move to bring around any punch or pie from what Faolan can see at least. He is just glad it seems all is said and done and he has a moment to catch his breath as he lets his bata rest on a shoulder as he slumps just a bit. "Don't think you are getting any. They musta lied." Hell, he doesn't even know if she was promised that in the first place or just a thought she conjured up in her own mind. He does dig about in a pocket and he steps over to the fallen witch. He manages to scrounge out a wad of bills and he pulls out ten or so dollars and drop it on her. "Here ya go. Grab yerself punch and pie."
He turns his attention to Megane and he gives a bit of a tip of his hat to the younger fighter. "Not bad, kid." he says and grins. Maybe if he does get into a fight with Megane things will be rather interesting. For now he is more than fine wandering off to get a nice heating pad and a cold drink to calm himself down.
COMBATSYS: Faolan has ended the fight here.
