Description: With plum advertising time on next week's SNF on the line, Yamada Dojo and Ryu Zui Ken meet as Lynn tries to keep Jubei's lecherous hands off him for more than just his judo skills. (Winner: Lynn)
Arriving fashionably late - to mess with the mind of his opponent - Jubei Yamada strolls into the Dragon Dojo, wearing a black trenchcoat over his white martial arts gi. He smiles and flashes a victory sign at people in the dojo as he hands his coat to someone, before the wirey old man climbs into the ring. He's wearing the standard Yamada Dojo gi, with a cobra on the back and a black belt around his waist. He raises his fists at the audience as he turns his back on the ring, pumping them in the air. "My adoring fans! Hello! It is I, the Demon of Southtown, Jubei Yamada!" he declares boistrously, his long white hair hanging behind him.
COMBATSYS: Jubei has started a fight here.

Jubei 0/-------/-------|
The Dragon Arena is...not quite as elaborate or ostentatious as Howard Arena or Masters Arena. In fact, it's...well, it's falling apart. Even with the renovations done for the Trail of the Dragon, it's hardly grand, barely breaking the 10,000 person capacity expected of modern arenas. Still, it draws crowds, and SNF is always one that brings people into the seats.
Lynn herself has been here quite a few times, often more to watch concerts rather than fights. And today marks the first time that she's not a spectator in this Arena. Obviously, she's a little nervous. Especially as badly as she got wrecked in her previous SNF fight...but today is a new day, a new chance...especially with a promise of an advertisement spot for the Ryu Zui Ken dojo if she wins.
That anxiousness turns to annoyance though as she waits in the corner of the ring, tapping her foot and waiting for her opponent. "Where is h...." And then he comes out. She stares a little, realizing that the man is rather....small. And old. Sure, that says nothing about his abilities, but it's still surprising when she sees a male opponent shorter than she. "Um...." She tilts her head, at a loss for now as he plays to the crowd. She's not one for trying to win over fans...but she still can't get over his HEIGHT....
With a final fist pump, Jubei swings around, seeing Lynn Baker, and smiling beneath his bushy white mustache. The little man tosses his head, hair swishing about behind him, as he drops into a combat stance. "Hello, young lady! Lynn, is it? I am Jubei Yamada, your opponent! Today, you face my unstoppable Yamada Judo, passed down from the ancient elders! Along with my virile, strong physique! But fret not, I am sure you are quite the martial artist in your own right!" He steps three paces out, into the center of the arena, watching Lynn with a careful eye. "So let us do battle! And maybe after our match, I can get your number!"
Lynn is taken aback a little by the old man's energy. Well, that should be expected one should supposed, from an old master like him. "Um...yes. Lynn Baker," she says, her hands slipped into the sleeves of her Qipao as she gives a short bow toward him. "Pleased to...meet....you..." she says, watching him go through his boasts. Definitely a strange old man.
And when he asks for her number, her face turns into a scowl. "What? No!" she says sharply, shocked at his lechery. Brow furrowed, she steps back from the center, dropping herself into her usual stance, one arm extended, palm outward and perpendicular, the other held with hand at chin level with feet wide.
Definitely not the way to start a battle....
Jubei Yamada smiles an odd smile at her, waggling his mustache. "You may change your mind by the end of this battle! I am known to be quite, how should I say it, persuasive!" He begins to slowly circle her, pacing left as he strafes around her calmly. "Let me tell you a little about myself. Besides being a master of the martial arts, I am also a Leo, I enjoy long walks on the beach, and I am a connosieur of seafood. Particularly oysters...They say they're an...Aphrodesiac." He waggles his eyebrows at Lynn, maybe trying to throw her off, or maybe flirting with a woman that must be a third of his age.
Lynn ughs, another look of distaste on her face as the old judo master contniues to flirt. She tries to zone it out, ignoring as he tries to give her his sign, his hobbies and....wait, seriously? Did he suggest an... "What is wrong with you?!" she shouts, sadly taking the bait and disrupting her harmony.
Something rather apparent when the signal to fight finally comes. Charging forward toward the old man, she breaks hard toward him and attempts to sweep a hard kick low at his legs, hoping to give him something better to talk about than wanting to take someone young enough to be his granddaughter out on a date.

Jubei drops down into a crouch, his arm turning the kick aside with a solid thump of flesh on flesh. "What is wrong with me? I'm crazy, they say. Crazy like a fox! From a fox to a fox, I think you know what that means!" He attempts to grab at the leg after it's struck his defenses, attempting to lift Lynn into the air over him and slam her down into the ring's floor on the other side. "HA-YAH!" he cries triumphantly, regardless of whether or not the attack hits.

While the kick is stalled on the old man's defenses, that doesn't leave Lynn in the lurch, thankfully. As he attempts to lift her up into the air, she manages to go with the flow, turning herself in with the throw, and wrenching her leg free from his grasp at the last moment, bringing herself to a hasty drop into a crouch, thankfully without a scratch.
Of course, that doesn't mean she's totally calm at this point. His continued flirtations have made it rather difficult for her to see straight. Sure, it's nice to be praised for one's looks, but....geez. Not to mention she's already given her heart toward a certain street fighter long ago. Glowering still, she leaps after Jubei, continuing her high pace as she flies over, and attempts to swing her leg back, a sweeping rear flying kick toward the old judo master.

Jubei blinks in surprise as Lynn makes it through his throw without even a scratch. "Impressive!" he states, before blocking her incoming kick with his forearm. He attempts to grab her leg again, this time twisting it about and attempting to force Lynn to the ground with a grab. "You may be young, but you fight like a mustang! But can you keep up with this bucking bronco?!" he raves, like a man with far too much moxie for his old age.

The leg grab works this time, but only for so long. The wrench manages to twist her about, but she's again able to roll through to the best of her ability, wrestling herself free before any further damage can be done to the leg. She seems to know how to move with attacks rather than against them, that's for certain.
But while her defense shows a certain flow, her offense still feels like that of a scorned girl trying to slap some sense into an old lech, her body charging in quick as she tries to drive a back shoulder strike into the shorter judo fighter. "Hihahh!!"

Jubei Yamada throws his shoulder into Lynn's, causing her to bounce off him as he grunts. "You're angry! Good! A true fighter's heart burns as bright as the noon day sun! Passion is the key to real fighting!" he lectures her, making up advice as he says it. He attempts to grab Lynn by her waist, before flipping her around and slamming her into the ground at his side, moving to his knees with the maneuver. "Hah!"

Lynn bounces off as Jubei pushes his shoulder into hers, blunting her strike and sending her back on her feet again. However, she doesn't seem to be TOO off balance, as when he charges and tries to grab her, she manages to twist once more, turning over head and landing on her feet once more, even if momentum carries her too far away to fully press the advantage.
And from the looks of it, without him trying to actively flirt with her anymore, her calm seems to slowly come back to her, her face no longer turned into a scowl. Instead, she's focused on the older man, respect for his skills...but a passion that tells her not to lose. And from this far? Well...she may not be able to strike with her body, but she can do something: both her hands sweep upward, palms filled with an orange like, and one leg lifts, like the infamous crane stance. It doesn't last long though, the foot planting once more while her hands sweep back down and together, the gathered energies forming and shooting forth in a fiery stream toward the master. "KORYU SHOZAN!"

Jubei is struck dead on by the blast of chi, flying backwards into the ropes and bouncing off. He lands on his knees, a smoking hole in the front of his gi. He shakes his head briefly, before he rises to his feet. "Ha! The spirit of a fighter burns within you! And what else do I detect...Perhaps it is...Animal magnetism?" he says, waggling his mustache. He sprints forward, attempting to pass by Lynn's left flank as he sticks his hand out, and attempts to flip through the air with a hold on her upper arm, flipping Lynn about in the process. "I too burn with the spirit of a fighter, young lady!"

Jubei 0/-------/--=====|>>>>>>>\-------\0 Lynn
Seems like it was too soon to assume that the old man would behave. Even with her Koryu Shozan finally getting the first flush hit of the fight, that attempt at flirtation manages to pierce through what seemed to be the first moment of calm focus Lynn had since the beginning of the fight. And it shows this time, her attempt to push in and perhaps wring some sort of penance from the shorter man dropping her into that throw, filpped hard onto her back with a sharp cry. "Ahhhgn!"
Rolling back up to her feet, she winces at the pain in her back, a grimace on her face. Looks like she was a bit too hasty. Maybe this is a lesson to calm down a little....
Nahhhhhhh. Perhaps that's what she should be doing, but instead, she leaps after the old man again, this time bringing both her hands together as she comes down at him with a flying double palm strike.

Jubei smiles at Lynn as she comes in with the double handed strike, swinging his arm up and catching her hands as they come down, sidestepping to let her hands come down where he once was. "Aha, got you!" he taunts, as he attempts to twist her hands downwards with his grip, before striking at her stomach with his knee. "Such fury! Clearly I have you all hot and bothered, eh?" he states slyly, with an odd look in his eye.

With her double palm strike sidestepped away, Lynn is forced to quickly recover, pulling her arms in once more and trying to muster her guard. She barely manages, avoiding the grab of her wrists, but just a little too slow to fully stop the knee he follows up with, sending her stumbling back with a groan. "Nnhhmm...." Grunting, she tries to recover her guard again, managing once she gets her feet back underneath her.
However, she doesn't remain still for long. Still insisting on pressing the attack, she narrows her eyes and charges in again. "Hiaaaaaahhhhhhh..." she cries out as she dashes in, hands starting to glow. Finally, she thrusts out one hand, a charge of orange energy within her palm as she strikes outward with it, followed by a lunge forward with her other palm, similarly charged. "ENRETSU KEN!"

The two strikes knock Jubei backwards, one after the other, the old man grasping his muscular chest where the chi-charged blows struck. "Ha! You are quite powerful! You have potential! Perhaps you should take a few Yamada Judo classes to unleash your TRUE STRENGTH?!" He then attempts to grab Lynn, attempting to flip her upside down and drive her headfirst into the ground.

Jubei 0/-------/-----==|=======\=====--\1 Lynn
As extended as she was with her Enretsu Ken, it should't be too surprising when Lynn isn't able to fully commit back to her guard after Jubei recovers from the double strike. But her heart isn't about to let her go down easy when the judo master flips her over head and tries to drive her head first. It's a small movement, a tuck in of her head, a shift of her shoulders...but it makes all the difference, the subtle, subconscious shift of her body changing a head spiking decisive toss into a painful landing, rather than a debilitating one. "NNhgahhhhh!!" she cries out as she lands, wincing as she pulls herself back up into a crouch with a stumble, one hand at her neck to make sure it's still intact. "Ow...."
Thankfully, that pain keeps her from hearing the old man's continued flirtations, keeping her from charging in blind. It gives her a moment to gather herself and think of what path to take next. Her brow furrows again, but this time in deterimation rather than anger. She dashes in once more from her crouch, but much more deliberately, coming in low before pivoting once she gets into range. Thrusting her leg upward, she tries to lift the old man up with a rising kick, an aura of orange energy surrounding her foot as she shouts, "TOBI RYU!" Should she manage to lift him up with the strike, she'd follow up with a diving kick that would plunge the judo fighter straight into one of the turnbuckles of the ring, hopefully.

Jubei gets kicked right in the jaw, popping up into the air, before he's driven straight into the turnbuckle. He bounces off hard, landing on his face. He lays there for several moments, before slowly rising to his feet, wiping blood from his mouth with the back of his hand. "Very good! You have almost won this battle, it seems, Lynn Baker of Sunshine City - but you will find Jubei Yamada to be as much a beast in the ring as he is in bed! Ha!" He charges back into battle, attempting to slam his chest into Lynn's and grab her around the waist, before flipping her backwards, into the very turnbuckle he just struck.

Landing from her explosive technique, Lynn falls into a crouch near the ropes, watching as Jubei lays before the turnbuckle, seemingly defeated at first...but slowly managing to pull himself back up from the canvas. As he rises, so does she, pulling herself into her stance with time to recover from her own strike. The Ryu Zui Ken heir finds her hackles rising again when he tries to again proposition her, this time spurring her enough to simply pivot away as he charges after her in attempt for another grab.
"STOP!" she shouts....before catching herself before she does something too hasty again. She really has been too angry this fight...and that's something that worries her. Backing away before she gets too far into it, she tries to find some room before her fist meets her palm, eyes closed. As she stands there, an aura, perhaps not visible to laymen eyes but definitely for experienced fighters, surrounds her, filling her with energy as she communes with....something....
COMBATSYS: Lynn communes with the power of the White Dragon.

Jubei 0/-------/-<<<<<<|=======\=------\1 Lynn
Jubei goes hurtling past Lynn, impacting into the ropes and bouncing off. He turns about, notably tired, the little old man seeming much less full of life than he was at the start of this bout. "Ha! The power of the fighter glows from within you!" He throws himself forward, attempting to grab Lynn by the neck and spin her about, before throwing her at the ropes.

With her communing finished, Lynn seems to glow with a harmony not present within her eariler in the fight. Calmed from her earlier furious state, she settles herself back into the fight just in time for Jubei to try and wrap around her neck. While he manages to grab her, she manages to slip free before she gets tossed hard into the ropes or wrenched about her neck even further.
With her mind clear and without the irritations of senior citizen flirtations, she's able to (hopefully) enact a more level offense, a sweep down of her hand toward the older man as she tries to hammer strike him in the shoulder with the heel of her palm, swift and (again, hopefully) accurate.

Jubei Yamada's forearm flies up, knocking the hand aside. "You are close, but you cannot complete the deal! I may be old, but I am young at heart!" he boasts proudly, seeming to be filled with energy again at this shift in the battle. He dashes forward again, attempting to grab Lynn and flip her over his shoulder.

Well, drat. That calm didn't seem to do a whole lot of good, her down palm strike knocked aside by Jubei's forearm. And with energy surging through his aged body again, he charges at Lynn, this time able to take hold of her and slam her down furiously in a way that takes all the air out of her lunge. "GuhhahhhhhhH!!" Her body shuddering, she tries to pull herself up, but finds herself faltering rather dangerously, the throws and grabs doing more damage to her than she seems to let on. "Nnhhh...." Still, she's not about to give up now.
Her determination still guiding her, she surges in once more, perhaps in a familiar way...but as she rises, and takes on that thrust kick upward, her leg surges with energy surrounding the entire leg, rather than her foot, flying upward with no apparent attempt at another kick downward. "KORYU KYAKUUU!!" she shouts, the surging kick trying to finish it with all the energy gathered within her body.

Jubei feels the leg come down on his shoulder, and emits a bellow of pain as he drops to his knee, feeling his arm dislocate. Shuddering from exertion, he rises, his left half drooping and his arm hanging at an odd angle. "Good...But I'm not done yet..." he murmurs, before he attempts to grab Lynn with his good arm and leap into the air with her in his grasp, before flipping her over and slamming her into the ground with an explosion of force. After that taxing move, he collapses.

Thankfully, despite as much energy as she put into that full powered Koryu Kyaku, Lynn is not completely drained. Perhaps she may have been if she hadn't paused to commune with the White Dragon and channel its energy, but as she lands, having hit Jubei flush, she still has the energy within her to backpedal away as he attempts that soaring grab.
And after he collapses, and the SNF referee calls it, so does Lynn, falling back into the ring ropes and sighing. "Haaaahhhh..." comes the exhale of relief, her weight resting back in the ropes and glancing down at the fallen judo master. It was a hard battle....and for once, she actually came out victorious. Hurt...but victorious.
COMBATSYS: Lynn has ended the fight here.
