SNF 2011.10 - SNF: "Everybody Was...What?"

Description: Two fighters, each having their own weapons specialty, face off in an old temple, while Chaos Agent Xian lurks to cause possible interference. Will Maki come out on top with her Tonfa skills? Or will the style of the Nunchaku by Mr. Jones get the upper hand? (WINNER: Maki)



It's such an honor to be here! Really! Fighting in a holy shinto shrine in Japan has always been Mr. Jones' dream, he hadn't had such an opportunity since he shot that one film on th earlier stages of his career Fist of the North Pole and he was just an extra mook in that one. Being in the presence of such a holy, serene and spiritual spot....really fires him and gets him ready to do some crazy arse kung fu fighting.

The crazed martial artist/actor can be found in the shrine already in silent prayer, this show lacks a bit of an audience and will only be televised. So because he's not one to sneak about like that and taking advantage of the eerie silence of the shrine he is seen starting at the holy shinto symbols, still beaming with pride despite being abandoned. Around his neck are hanging the nunchucks his used in his previous match against the sword wielding Blood, he heard his opponent is famous for her tonfa usage and he thought he might as well even the odds. Feeling that the time soon approaches to bust a groove, Johnny Jones looks up, then to the sides and pops the collar of his yellow jumpsuit; an excited grin growing in his lips.

Meanwhile, Maki Genryuusai has been making her way here slowly, since she's not entirely sure about this for some reason. Namely because it's happening at an old, abandoned shrine. And considering how many temples are given high priority in Japan, this bothers Maki. It's almost like someone's trying to set her up for a trap or something of that nature. For what it's worth, though, Maki's not entirely nervous or anything like that. Rather, she's just on extra high alert as she makes her way to where the fight will be taking place.

As Maki enters the temple, she looks around to see if there's any sign of her opponent and whether they're ready for her or not. Regardless, Maki takes a few moments to warm up with her tonfa.

"Heeey, what's shaking?" Comes Mr. Jones voice when he hears steps on the creaky temple wood, even if there's a lot of tension here due to the high risk of a trap, the actor seems totally oblivious to it--or maybe he's not worried? Despite his fame for being an all around nice guy, Jones can and does come often as being far too confident of his own ability to defend himself. "I mean, Hajimemashite." The funky fighter corrects himself and does a bow, fist on his palm representing Peace over Power in ancient Kung Fu tradition. "I'm Mr. Jones and I'll be your opponent for tonite, baby. Nice to meet'cha!" There's that wide insane grin again and he takes off his nunchucks, starting to twirl them around. "Hope you don't mind I brought my good ol' chucks along for the ride."

Maki bows as well, although with just her arms beside her. "Yeah, that's fine. We're both fighters with weapons so it's only right that we both use them." Maki comments as she spins her tonfa a few more times, before getting into her fighting stance. "At any rate, we're here to get it on, so I'll let you start things off."

Mr. Jones throws his head back in hearty honest laughter. "Sure! Let's get it on babe!" This woman ain't beating around the bush at all and wants to get to the fightin' pronto, something that Jones respects even if he would prefer to do a little showboating first due to his rather dire need to please audiences. Oh well, you can't always try to play it cool and Jones tucks his nunchuck under his armpit, rubs his nose with his thumb and assumes an aggressive Jeet Kune Do, body slightly bent forward as he takes the initiative. For a few moments, he just stands there, not moving at all as he merely studies his opponent. Large expressive eyes hidden behind shades studying Maki's stance for any possible openings first until suddenly--

"HAAAAI!!"

He launches himself into action, pushing himself forward from his back leg with left fist extended aiming to drive his knuckles right into Maki's forehead.

"Watch who you call babe!" Maki says with a slight scowl forming on her face. "I've taken on countless goons who have underestimated me and they wound up paying for it big time." Any further dialogue from her is cut off as Maki's stricken in the forehead, causing her to reel back briefly in pain, before shaking it off and looking at Mr. Jones with a slightly narrowed eye.

"Pretty good, but like I said, don't underestimate me!" Maki spins around once, then lifts her leg up and attempts to deliver a swift side kick to Mr. Jones's stomach.

*WHOCK!* Jones' fist connects with the woman's forehead and he makes a face, not of triumph, but of nervous regret when she scolds him for his choice of words. "I mean it on a good way though! Sorry if I offend, it's just a very old school way of complementing chicks--I mean women, I mean--How about if I just shut up now?" Mr Jones stutters a bit and almost looks like he was the one who just got punched in the face, sometimes his happy go lucky attitude can irritate more serious and business minded people like Maki.

He's the type of guy that can carry a casual conversation while he and his opponent are beating the ever loving crap out of each other though, and his jests don't pry his attention out of the fight. He sees the counter side thrust kick coming and he hops back taking the kick on the forearm before swinging his nunchuck right at Maki's thigh to hit the peroneal nerve and get her leg to cramp up. "WASHOO!"

"You should have a little consideration as to how you compliment someone," Maki replies, bringing her tonfa arm down to deflect Mr. Jones's kick away. Maki's not entirely a strict and serious person, it's just that there's a time for chatting and this isn't one of them. "If you want to shut up, I'm not going to stop you." Maki pauses to watch and see if Mr. Jones actually shuts up or plans something else.

"Alright, Xian, you know what to do, right? Just go in there and have some fun. Your choice who to attack and what to do, alright?" The Taiyo High schoolgirl nods, with a strange grin. This is... going to be interesting! Mr. Jones is not exactly her -hero- but she knows about him, and, as a fellow Kung Fu practitioner of course she's a little biased...

"Don't think of it as being disr--okay, that's the whole idea, you're supposed to be disruptive! Just make it a good show, that's all we're asking," finishes the SNF official, giving Xian a reassuring smile. "Don't worry too much about what happens--they're told to beware..."

And with that, Xian is turned loose. She looks back and forth, back and forth... and then just charges in, from her 'holding pen', a place in the middle--and heads straight for Maki. The fight's pretty even so far, to her eyes, so she's really just picking at random in a sense--but Maki should see her coming, as the schoolgirl leaps in with a picturesque flying knuckle, the girl shrilling a high-pitched kiai.

Mr. Jones whistles when his nunchuck is blocked by a tonfa and hops back some more "Dayum, that's just cold as ice." He's left pretty dumbfounded at Maki's attitude, honestly he's here to have fun and make sure everyone has a good time and since Maki sounds like she ain't, well that just means that he's failing as an entertainer. As he's getting ready for his next action, from the sidelines comes a familiar figure: It's none other than Xian coming over to bust the party. "Hey! Xian! Did you get that thing I sent ya!" Calls the martial artist with a laugh and rushes over to Maki's side. He may look and act like a fool, but he can spot an opportunity when he sees one and seeks to capitalize on the fact that Maki may be distracted by the school girl flying in her direction to swing a lariat kick right at the side of her head! "WOOO!"

Maki brings her guard around to knock Jones's kick away from her, only to leave herself vulnerable to Xian's incoming flying knuckle. This sends Maki staggering to the side a little, causing her to grunt and rub the injured spot in pain. She looks up with teeth gritted and narrows her eyes at Xian, but decides against taking her just yet. "Get out of here, this is my fight!" Maki yells as she goes onto the ground and begins spinning around on her tonfa with her leg outstretched aimed at Mr. Jones.

Xian rebounds from the attack and lands on her feet, grinning--not at the hit, but just because she's naturally exuberant like that. "Don't forget, if I'm too annoying, you guys -can- try to knock me out!" she calls, as she wheels around, spinning towards Mr. Jones--even as Maki rushes in. It's sort of a very complex exercise in impromptu teamwork, and, crouching, she leaps up again.

As she arcs through the air towards the afro'ed Mr. Jones, she hurls herself into a forward tumble and comes down with a downwards-spiking wheel kick, aiming to lay the instep of her foot right square into the man's afro. She'd apologize, but this is her role and she isn't doing anything -too- untoward... at least as far as the rules of the fight intersect with her own personal rules of honor.

"Woo!!" Mr. Jones gets his kick deflected and he starts pulling back when he sees Maki go for one crazy attack! "You got some moves girl! Dang!" Cheers the man even as he brings his forearm down to protect his torso only to feel that the spinning kick is far more powerful than he imagined! "OW!" Maki's rock solid shin connect right into his arms and he goes spinning back, rubbing his forearms after the failed attempt to block it. "That coulda gone better..woa!"

No time to think though, Xian suddenly switches targets and she's aiming to kick him right in the head with a frontal rolling kick! "No!" Ain't gonna happen! That could mess up his do! Jones jumps right back out of the way and charges towards Xian when she's down on the ground, stomping on her stomach with both feet! "Sorry baby! I love ya but the 'fro is off limits!!" For that, he will have to apologize later, but for now it's time to dance!

Using Xian as a sort of trampoline, Jones jumps right off the school girl's belly and does a backwards flip to send himself right over Maki's head. He'll spin in middair and bring those same feet he used to stomp Xian to crash into Maki's shoulders and injure her collarbone.

Maki chuckles, not only as she hits Mr. Jones, but also when Xian gets countered. "I told you that you should get out of here!" Maki says as she twirls her tonfa arrogantly. "And as for you, buddy, what I think it's time I showed you what else I can do." Maki then attempts to drive her tonfa into Mr. Jones's stomach, causing him to double over, and from there Maki will administer an over-the-shoulder throw.

"Uwah--!!" Bicycle'd!! Xian is flung away, her flying kick neatly interrupted by Mr. Jones' flashy technique, she lands on her back, bouncing once. "Oof!" She pushes up to a sitting position, then rises up, rubbing her side. "Ow-ow-ow," she mutters, to herself, ruefully. Well, she knew how good Mr. Jones was, having fought alongside him two weeks ago.

Finding herself out of position, she simply rises and moves back towards the fight, but, not choosing to reenter the field of battle just yet--she wants to get to a place where she can attack without damaging her conscience.

COMBATSYS: Xian takes no action.

"Sorry!" Jones calls from the other side having heard Xian going off flying and tumbling like that. He honestly hadn't meant to do that, but people grabbing his 'fro, much less kicking it, is kind of a pet peeve of his and reacted just out of instinct. He shakes his head and adjusts his shades just in time to realize he is directly in the way of Maki's tonfa jab to his stomach. "Wuh oh!" The crazed martial artist swings his nunchuck right at the tonfa to smack it out of the way but it seems Maki is undeterred and quickly twirls on her heel to give him his back going for the Judo throw.

"Agh!!" Jones is caught in a bad position, he is losing his center of gravity and threatens to be flung forward, right between the two women fighters again, something he does not want at all! No doubt Xian is going to come back with a vengeance after he kicked her like that. He wiggles his legs in the air and does the only thing he can think of to not get thrown. The funky fighter extends his nunchucks over Maki's neck and gives a good hard yank back to choke her with the chain!

Attacks like that really get on Maki's nerves. Which is why she manages to dodge out of the way in the nick of time and twists to the side. "That's why I prefer my tonfa, it doesn't have any strings attached." A slight laugh, but nothing else shows humor in the pun Maki makes. "Speaking of my tonfa, let me show you how I handle it!" Maki swings it around a few times before attempting to thwack Mr. Jones in the side.

Right. Now she's back into it, and, with... well, with the way things now, it's pretty easy to 'choose' which of the combatants to attack next--she doesn't see herself necessarily as a 'Chaos' agent, but as an equalizer.. at least for a while.

With a little grin she manuevers over towards Mr. Jones--then turns towards Maki--and points, dramatically. "Alright, Miss Ninja--get ready.... HERE I COME!" She rocks backwards, then hurls herself forward, taking five big steps before planting her left foot and swinging her right leg around in a big, obvious arc.

"EARTH-BREAKING WIND-GOD KIIIIIIICK!" she shouts, totally, and obviously, overplaying her hand, so to speak... as her foot slashes through the air, aimed for Maki's head.

Mr. Jones reels his chain back when Maki goes under and stumbles a little, well at least he didn't get thrown like he thought he would be, and shakes his head trying to get his bearings. The funky disco fighter finds them just in time to see the incoming tonfa coming at his side and he blocks it with the chain of his nunchucks, his eyebrows wiggling a little at the woman. "Hey! Don't you be hating on my chucks!" He's very fond of them you see and he starts twirling them about showing off his skills "Woooo!"

Just as Xian is about to make contact, Maki spins around, albeit twisting into the path a little more for the kick, and brings her tonfa up to knock Xian away. Of course Maki also staggers back a little, holding her head in pain and attempting to catch her breath. "Damn, that hurt. But it was worth it." Maki looks at Xian and grins.

Looks like Jones' plan didn't work, he was actually swinging his nunchuck around like that in an attempt to catch Maki's attention and keep her away from looking at the incoming Xian. Unfortunately the school girl has the tendency of being overly loud and announce her attacks when she shouldn't, even a movie actor like himself can appreciate the meaning of stealth. "Oooh..." Jones grimaces at Xian eating a tonfa smack in the face but notices something, Maki is now giving him her back and that's a bad thing to do in a fight. "Uhh..'scuse me." Jones creeps up behind Maki and taps her gently on the shoulder for her to turn around and when she does so she'll find a nunchuck flying right at her face!

The tonfa smacks solidly into Xian's leg and comes pretty close to breaking the limb--but it doesn't, and Xian rebounds off the kick with a pained yelp. Well, she -was- kind of asking for it, in no small way. But she returns Maki's grin with one of her own and she jumps backwards, favoring her leg, though she manages to keep from reaching down to rub at the limb where it was hit.

"Just about time for me to bow out and let you two finish this out," she says--now, technically, a Chaos Agent can be in there 'til the end, but Xian wouldn't feel right aiding -either- fighter to that extent...

"See you later," Maki comments while ducking under the incoming punch. "And don't forget, you can't hit something that won't stand still." Maki winks at Xian before turning to face Mr. Jones again. "And as for you, let's keep things going, shall we?" Maki comments as she aims a swift swing of her tonfa at Jones.

"Hmrgh!!" This is looking pretty bad, Maki has proven to be rather perceptive and didn't fall for Mr. Jones punch hello tactic. Not only that but he was far too close to avoid the tonfa strike towards his head and ends up eating it on the shoulder! Now that smarts! "Ow! Ow! Yeah, let's." Jones back pedals and starts wiggling his arm, trying to pop his shoulder back on it's socket. "It only takes two to tango anyways." He says mentioning Xian's premature departure.

"Come on, I'm ready when you are," Maki says, sounding rather neutral although it could be sarcastic. "Even without that girl here, you'll still be a fair challenge for me. I'm not about winning and losing, but rather about being able to keep up with my fighting skill."

Well ain't that nice? For a moment there Mr. Jones thought that Maki was being all condescending and thought little of him due to his bombastic attitude, it's good to see that she's still keeping it friendly despite her barbed words. "I'm glad ya think so, sista'." There we go, that's something he can call Maki without her getting offended, maybe, he'll have to see how she reacts. He pops that shoulder right back in, gives a nod to Maki when gestures him to attack her and can do naught but comply! He rushes right at her and jumps with his leg extended, aiming to land a flying kick right at the woman's neck like a flying guillotine. "WAATAAAA!!"

A human guillotine? Isn't that something you'd see in a--- Oh never mind.

Maki never sees it coming untill it's too late, which is why she gets hit before she can even begin to move. She drops to the ground like a sack of beans, and then tries to push herself back up again. Although, the side of her neck is giving her a bit of problems. Maki glares at Mr. Jones and says, "I should've known you'd be doing cheap attacks like that..." She then begins to braethe deep, refocusing herself.

Yes, yes, it is from a Kung Fu movie, but it's a legitimate attack!
Jones bounces right off Maki's neck after the side of his foot hits her wind pipe and watches her crumble down on the floor. An eyebrow arches and he looks about ready to poke her with the tip of his foot to see if she's down and out, but before he does that the ninja woman is right back on her feet, a true testament to her endurance as only trained fighters could survive a blow like that. Although there is one thing. "What!? I dunno what you're talking about, that is totally a legit Jeet Kune Do move!" If Maki is trying to make Mr. Jones feel bad about himself it ain't gonna work! He does however get a little more cautious and rather than charge again at the woman, he inches towards her and flicks his nunchucks at her going to pop her in the nose. "Shoo!"

"You know how to use that thing well," Maki comments as she deflects the nunchaku away from her nose. "Just like I know how to use my weapon well." She steps back a little, trying to shake off the dizziness in her head from having taken quite a beating. "But even without my tonfa, I'm still a dangerous force!" Maki leaps onto a nearby object, and then presses off, flying at Mr. Jones with a swift flying kick!

"Hey thanks, I practice with it a lot." Mr. Jones grins at the compliment even though he gets his weapon deflected, though true to his own skill he pulls it back and tucks it under his arm pit, prepare himself for the inevitable counter attack. This comes in the form of a flying kick and Mr. Jones' shades flash seeing an opportunity, moving forward to counter attack it there...except he steps on his shoe laces. "Woopsie daisy--HMFGH!" And promptly eats a flying foot to the mouth sending him flying backwards.

Maki lands on the ground and shakes her head. "You should watch your step, you know that? Or keep your shoelaces more securely tied." She watches Mr. Jones land on the ground and she sneers a little before folding her arms. "Come on, I know you can still take me!"

Mr. Jones laughs even if from the ground and sits up rubbing his jaw. "Oh man...shouldn't have worn tennis shoes." He scratches his head and quickly ties his shoe laces ignoring the blood dripping from his mouth. Oh but what's this? Maki is getting cocky? Well no one out performs Mr. Jones, no sir! He stands right back up and assumes a dragon stance, motioning Maki to come closer with his hand. "No you come on!"

The retro fighter just smirks when he baits Maki into attacking him, as I said, Mr. Jones may not be the best fighter ever yet, but dang is he the most annoying one by far! "Oh I'll see what I can do about that!" Is his response of choice and blocks the incoming tonfa with the chain of his nunchuck. Back into the groove, the disco dancer quickly whirls on his feet and swings a tornado kick right into Maki's gut. "SHOO!"

COMBATSYS: Maki dodges MrJones' Slide Double.

"Oh no you don't!" Maki says as she rolls underneath Mr. Jones and lands behind him after he finishes. "I think it's time we ended this once and for all!" Maki takes a deep breath and blows it out, then attempts to charge Mr. Jones, aiming to land a flurry of attacks in rapid succession before leaping up and doing an aerial throw!

COMBATSYS: MrJones fails to interrupt Bushin Gou Rai Ha from Maki with Jab Punch.

Swing and a miss! Mr. Jones' eyes boggle from under his shades when Maki rolls right under his kick, an impressive move worthy of a ninja's dexterity. Perhaps he shouldn't have tried to be as aggressive with this one considering how easily she can dodge most everything, oh and would you look at that now she's pissed, maybe he shouldn't have taunted her so much either! "Hey come on! Cut me some slack!" The retro fighter brings his nunchucks to try and whack the blows away but only ends up getting caught in the tackle, carried up in the air and then flung down to the ground where he lands on his head. "Oof!" The music in his head has stopped playing. "Not...groovy.."

Maki shakes her head. "Well, it was a good attempt, and you fought well... but I came out on top again." Maki shakes her head and folds her arms as SNF attendants move in to tend to Mr. Jones. Meanwhile, Maki simply walks away, having won the fight but not wanting to stop and gloat.
