SNF 2011.09 - SNF: "Bagged Lunches"

Description: Zach and El Fuerte battle it out for the fate of Gedo High School's menu! (Winner: El Fuerte)



"Luchaaaaaaaaraaaaaaan!"

An announcer introduces the prospect fighters who will tangle here today in Gedo High's Cafeteria, amongst much yelling of excitement by the students and scrapping of tables as they are moved around to make room for the fighters. An improvised ring is better than no ring at least, and as El Fuerte stands up on one of the cafeteria's tables scanning the improvised circle the students have made with benches and chairs he deems to be... 'tolerable' for his Lucha Libre tastes. "It will suffice!" He snaps his fingers and enters the ring with a somersault, landing on his feet. "For too long you poor students have been living under the pressure of bland food which fail to nourish your young fiery spirits! But friend not mis amigos! After today, El Fuerte, shall introduce to your menu ricas Sushi Enchiladas, Couscous Paella and Tofu Tacos!"

The students obviously cheer at the change of menu, save for one who scratches his head finding something odd about that.

"Tofu tacos?...what the heck?"

COMBATSYS: ElFuerte has started a fight here.

Zach Glen hops a chair to enter the improvised ring looking at the head scratching student. "Yeah," he says in agreement, "That just /sounds/ wrong." Then again, Zach's an American. Tofu as a /rule/ just sounds wrong. He looks around, wondering if he has somehow been cast as the heel for this fight. He bounces on the balls of his feet before settling into a tight boxing stance.

"Let's have a good match," Zach says as he starts a tight bob-an-weave motion with his upper body. Someone grabs a large pot and clangs it with a large metal serving ladle to signal the start of the match.

"Quite you! Tofu only tastes bad if you don't cook it properly! There shall be none of that squishy nasty taste after I have deep fried it!" Deep fried tofu? Isn't that defeating the purpose? Some of the students seem to be thinking the same thing and they are not all that sure if it's on their best interest if El Fuerte wins this match and takes over the school's menu, but they guess they'll have to wait and see.

The Luchador nods with his arms still crossed, not having taken a stance just yet. "Si! Let us fight properly." He steps back to give his opponent and himself some room until he hears the 'bell'.

As soon as he hears that, the masked wrestler takes off running-- but not towards Zach, he's running in the other direction! The wrestler jumps up to table, catapults himself high in the air towards the opposing wall, bounces there to fly up to the ceiling and swing himself by one of the turned off fans; directly towards Zach!

"TOSTADA!!" The wrestlers gives a loud yell going for the body press. There's no such thing as a 'simple' attack in Lucha Libre, they are all over the top acrobatics.

COMBATSYS: Zach has joined the fight here.

Zach grimaces as El Fuerte comes in high-flying, and realizes that boxing... really doesn't not cover attacks from that angle. He'll have to adapt. Zach raises his forearms, catching the wrestler against the improvised guard before twisting to allow El Fuerte to fall to the ground.

Zach shuffles to one side as he recovers his stance. He needs to take the offensive, and quickly. The psion opens his left hand a bit before snapping out a quick jab, accented by a golden glow of Soul Power that covers the hand to the wrist!

COMBATSYS: ElFuerte dodges Zach's Jab Punch.

Zach             0/-------/-------|==-----\-------\0         ElFuerte


El Fuerte SLAMS into Zach's guard, but rather than falling on his butt like an amateur he bounces off his opponent and lands on his feet. The crowd is obviously very impressed, seeing the Mexican man run up a wall like that, and that was just the initial strike, imagine what the rest of the match will be!?

Though the wrestler appreciates the cheers he's more concentrated on the fight and as the jab comes it turns out that he can weave around like a boxer too. He crouches low to avoid the jab and suddenly EXPLODES forward, trying to swing a lariat strike at Zach's neck and bring him back on the ground, back of the head first.

COMBATSYS: Zach endures ElFuerte's Quesadilla Bomb.

Zach             0/-------/---====|==-----\-------\0         ElFuerte


Zach ducks his head, catching the lariat on the chin more than the throat, rocking back from the taller man's strike, leaning back enough to let El Fuerte's arm to swing free. Zach barely manages to keep his feet, before snapping himself upright and quickly turning to face the Luche Libre cook.

This move gives Zach a clear shot at El Fuerte's back. The psychic steps in, firmly planting his feet before driving a soul power-assisted body blow aimed at the Mexican's liver, and sapping his stamina. Hopefully, that will keep the crazy guy from flying around so much!

COMBATSYS: ElFuerte blocks Zach's Gazelle Punch EX.

Zach             0/-------/----===|===----\-------\0         ElFuerte


Incredible! El Fuerte's eyes go wide when Zach actually stands there and takes the lariat to the neck rather than defending himself. "Muchacho loco!!" He comments as he doesn't want to really hurt the other guy, wrestling is all about putting your opponent in submission or pinning them, not collapsing their wind pipe. Thankfully as he runs right by, it seems that Zack is a Limbo master and bends over backwards to go right under his attack.

"Ay!!" The wrestler grunts when, just as soon as he turns around Zach is going for the body blow aimed for his gut. "Sorry! I need my air to keep running!" Says he as he puts an arm down and a leg up to take the blow on his extremities rather than on the stomach and since he's up close and personal against Zach, he sees this as a grab opportunity.

He pushes forward towards him to wrap his arms around Zach's waist and suddenly lift him up attempting to put flip him upside down, where he can pile drive him onto the dirty cafeteria floor.

COMBATSYS: ElFuerte successfully hits Zach with Chili Mexicano.

Zach             0/-------/-======|====---\-------\0         ElFuerte


Zach lets out a short yell as he gets taken for a ride. The psion is slammed to the floor, causing everything to blur in his vision. Zach rolls free, staggering to his feet. He tries to shake the cobwebs loose as he regains his stance. The psychic regards El Fuerte for a moment before dashing in again.

Zach plants firmly, driving a heavy fist at El Fuerte's head. At the end of the punch, regardless of impact, there is a detonation of psychic energy that will likely stagger the victim!

COMBATSYS: ElFuerte dodges Zach's Dynamite Punch.

Zach             0/-------/--=====|====---\-------\0         ElFuerte


By no means is El Fuerte letting that kid get a solid hit. The Wrestler knows plenty about boxers, their punches hurts like a sunnuvagun! Therefore, as soon as the boy had gotten up from the smash to cold clock the wrestler, he'll find that he has taken off running again, not wishing to stand there in the general vicinity of Zach after he gets up.

"Uff! Uff!" El Furete stands running in circles around the ring as if he were jogging, keeping the adrenaline going or some such. Either way, he's not currently attacking Zach, just content on running laps like a cloud around the ring, even grasping a bottled water that one of the students offer and douse it on his head, acting more like a marathon runner than a wrestler at this point. "Gracias amigo!"

COMBATSYS: ElFuerte gains composure.

Zach             0/-------/--=====|==-----\-------\0         ElFuerte


Zach tracks Elfuerte's movements, rotating to follow. As he does so, he decides to get his own adrenaline flowing, and reaches into that extranatural well of power that resides within him. A faint aura of golden light envelopes Zach Glen as he starts to get his own battery charged...

COMBATSYS: Zach gathers his will.

Zach             1/------=/=======|==-----\-------\0         ElFuerte


At some point El Fuerte stops running and faces his opponent. He had half expected for Zach to run after him to attack him and is rather disappointed when the young man opts to simply stand still and look cool. "Vamos!!" The wrestler heckles him and throws the empty bottle of water at him, mostly to irritate him more.

COMBATSYS: Zach blocks ElFuerte's Thrown Object.

Zach             1/----===/=======|==-----\-------\0         ElFuerte


Zach bats the bottle aside with the back of his left hand even as he takes El Fuerte at his suggestion. "Okay," he says as he brings his right hand in close to his chest. Zach takes a thunderous step in even as he twist his wrist a little bit oddly before throwing a heavy right hand.

There is more to the punch, however. The intial twist was used to force a little extra rotation for a corkscrew blow. Psychic energy spins off of the hand, spraying motes of golden light as the right straight drives directly at El Fuerte's heart!

COMBATSYS: ElFuerte blocks Zach's Heartbreak Shot.

Zach             0/-------/-------|====---\-------\0         ElFuerte


Woa boy! This is the stuff that El Fuerte was worried about! Not only is Zach a boxer but he can also shoot those energy beams that he loathes. Bah! He really doesn't see any way of getting around that, except right through it! Clenching his teeth, the crazed wrestler put his arms up to protect his chest blocking his proud Mexican heart and charges directly towards the beam of light, taking the fastest path towards his opponent; a straight line.

His arms are scorched after going through the psychic attack, but now he has Zach right in front of him where he wants him and the Luchador makes his move. Exploding forward like a missile, he ducks low and goes to tackle his opponent lifting him up in the process and slam his back against the tables behind him.

COMBATSYS: ElFuerte successfully hits Zach with Fajitas Buster.

Zach             0/-------/----===|======-\-------\0         ElFuerte


Zach goes through a pair of tables, and bounces through a third before laying there in a heap of wood, metal and splinters. Zach stares at his left shoulder, opened by a broken-off piece of table frame. He pulls himself to his feet, looking at El Fuerte with a bit of a frown before starting to circle the wrestler.

He brings his right arm up, placing his hand over the cut even as the hand glows gold. The wound stops bleeding, and starts to close itself up as Zach readies to weather the next storm of activity...

El Fuerte jumps back after the collision, his eyes peering from under his mask focusing on his opponent once he notes his bleeding. "Woops, lo siento." It hadn't been his intention to slam Zach so hard he went through a table, but such is the risky life of wrestling!

The wrestler too moves side ways, following Zach's movements, not wanting him to circle him and find an angle where he can attack. Instead, the luchador tries to keep Zach on his guard by making fast movements to the sides, wiggling his shoulders like he is going to attack until he throws a left jab to the face, more to distract his foe more than anything.

COMBATSYS: Zach successfully hits Zach with Lay On Hands.

Zach             0/-------/---====|=======\-------\1         ElFuerte


Zach winces as El Fuerte comes rushing in. Zach does not, oddly, press forward. Instead , he regains his stance and takes careful aim. Zach focuses as he sets his weight, and snaps his left hand out at El Fuerte's face!

El Fuerte's jab connects just as Zach's does, causing the psion to stagger back with a bloody nose. Glen's vision goes blurry to the point of being unable to make anything out at all.

Ow!! Well that's a lot more than what El Fuerte was hoping for. His quick jab actually connects with the face, something he was not expecting, but at the same time he too gets clocked in the jaw by a counter jab! Ugh! Unlike Zach, he's not a boxer, he doesn't like to stand still and trade blows like some kind of hooligan, his style is all about jumping all over the place, find an opening to grab, slam the foe and then never look back.
As such, as soon as the fist collides, the Luchador turns around and looks like he is running in the other direction. Only to jump high in the air in a wide backwards arch and land on the table directly behind Zach!

"El Fuerte!!"

Oh hell

"Flyiiiiiiing GIGA BUSTER!!!" Cries the wrestler as he jumps towards Zack, aiming to land on his shoulders, do a frontal somersault with him in tow and slam the top of his head on the unforgiving ground.

COMBATSYS: ElFuerte successfully hits Zach with El Fuerte Flying Giga Buster.

Zach             1/-------/=======|-------\-------\0         ElFuerte


Zach tries to evade, but staggers into El Fuerte's assault. The world spins, and Zach goes flying into yet another table. He crashes to the ground in a cloud of dust and splinters. He tries to get up again, but nothing is responding. He stares at the cieling, and then sees the student who was confused about tofu tacos.

Zach looks at the kid for a moment, remembering the terms of the fight. "Sucks to be you, I guess," Zach mumbles mostly coherently...

...and then he passes out.

COMBATSYS: Zach takes no action.

COMBATSYS: Zach can no longer fight.

El Fuerte rolls forward after landing and strikes a pose, so certain that no one can survive that he doesn't even bother looking back.


"Viva Mexico!"
