Call me cute again...

The Leather of drums where getting toured, in a rapid, but well executed beat. A Twentyish young woman dress in a traditional Hakama danced what it seem a type of ballet in her hand was a rather long stick as she jumped, and twirled she left marks on the floor, but those who had a better eye for detail would notice a type of silverfish bubble floating ten feet in the air.

The beat speed up and the young vixen fallowed, the bubble slowly grew and then it all stopped. The woman stood in the middle of it all, the symbols where emblazon on the ground gleam whit a eerie color, the woman was calm he breath had not increase one bit since the beginning she hand slowly raised allowing the stick to poke the floating bubble.

Whit a loud popping sound the bubble seem to flood the area only being contained inside the drawings in the ground, spreading like wildfire and growing like plants from the floor bloomed large stones, two inch tick at the size of four by four roughly weighting fifteen pounds each. The stones lined up ten by ten forming a large forty feet ring, four spires that seem to graze the sky at thirty feet stood at each corner.

In design this was just a simple structure, the fancy markings on the ground and the multiple messages that where said by great mind over time where artistic yet useful, a warrior in his struggling moment could find inspiring words hidden in the structure words that may fill him whit the fire to continue.

This magnificent construction that would normally take hours to achieve was made in seconds. The artist bowed three times and slowly walk toward the judges table, the young raven hair vixen was one of the judges tonight.

“That was awesome!!!!, but I know your all here for the art of physical expression, I so just came up whit that one Ji ji ” She flashed another of her money making smiles.

She slowly unbutton her pink jacket he movements done purposely to throw any hormone level of the chart, but the fun would end fast since bellow it was a white and black stripe shirt, rapidly she grabbed the two youth by there hand and lead them toward the center of the ring. “I’ll be your supper awesome possum referee” she lowerd her voice so the microphone would not pick her voice “Make sure to have fun, ok” and whit that she released there arms “Take your places “she gave them time to prepare themselves. She rapidly ran outside the ring to avoid being in the way and allowed the word “Begin!!!!” escape her lips whit power.

The spectacle did indeed make her draw drop, Momoko wasn't used to such festivities, having grown up in the quiet forest.

mean while, in the stands, grandpa Seto was smiling and clapping along to the drums rhythm. his eyes sprakled with the youth returned to an old man, and he was glad that his cute little granddaughter would be able experience this...especially after he had not been able to treat her to it before. He had not been prepared for this much openness about meta-humans, though. This was good though, at least he had not sent her somewhere where she was being ridicule.

Momoko found it hard to sit still though, the drmbeat and the dance the lady was doing was like a forbidding invitation. It made her fight against her own body, yet refreshed her spirit. If she was awed before, she surely was now..for when the dance stopped, the woman popped the giant buble which had been following her and growing in size. The area was drenched and then she watched with wide childlike eyes as rocks rose in designated areas and left no mark upon the ground. it has become like a holy enchated sort of fighting ring instead of just some designated area for a good brawl.

at the end of it all, she found herself cheering along with the rest of the audience, and even did a little thing with her feet which mimicked that of the woman. This must be the "Angel of the craft", as the one lady, who was now leading them back, had called her. Momoko noticed writings under her feet as she walked forth.


“That was awesome!!!!, but I know your all here for the art of physical expression, I so just came up whit that one Ji ji ”

Momoko's head tilted in innocent curiousity, for a moment, she wondered why the lady was so slow at unbuttoning a jacket which could obviously be off in a few seconds. then she reminded herself that the lady acted odd and dismissed it at that.

“I’ll be your supper awesome possum referee”

The phrase she had said was odd too, but she dismissed it, gaining only the information that she would be the referee. Then she had lowered her voice and spoke only to the two.

“Make sure to have fun, ok”

Momoko nodded and smiled, "ok"
Right, this was just to have fun... they wouldn't really allow them to kill their opponents...so, she could relax..she could have fun.


“Take your places “

As the announcer lady ran off to the side..Momoko moved a few ards away from the boy, who was her oppponent in this first match of the tournement. She gave him a slight smile.

“Begin!!!!”

she moved in a slight fighting pose, and then paused. "you can make the first move" she offered.

In the stands her grandpa watched intently, and although he really didn't want to see Momoko hurt by anyone other than him..he needed to see this and beleived such an experience can only be good for her character too.

(sorry about any action I am taking with this unoffical charatcer/ npc dude of mine :) I would try to get him approved..but I can't access the approval forum thing.. *goes to read rules again*)

Walking up to the the ring, he could feel butterflies spawn within his stomach. His mind began jumping about, trying to figure out who the hell he was about to fight. Maybe it was a serial killer? Like Jack the ripper, or someone of cunning intellect who was a cannibal, like Hannibal Lector.

But upon getting there, he saw a girl of small structure, his eyes widened. Of course his initial reaction was

'They have to be kidding me...'

and then he thought

'I don't want to hit a girl...'

His anxious expression soon turned into a bemused look, as he nearly chuckled at the girl, who was declaring that Raiga had the first move. He honestly didn't know what to do. So he just began walking towards Momoko, nonchalantly, hoping she would just get pissed and make the first move. He couldn't think of anything until getting within a couple of feet. With a malevolent smirk, he exuded from his fingertips some Gunpowder and oil, and snapped his fingers, trying to send the little girl off her feet with a off-guard explosion.

She watched his facial expressions as they changed, trying to discern what he was thinking. maybe he was suprised and incrudious when he found out that in a martial arts tounement, he was going to fight a little girl.

then he seemed to have gotten smug..and like he didn't really plan to fight, which she doubted, he walked towards her.

But she moved a step for almost every one he took towards her..she couldn't be that easy, now could she? Heh heh.

Then something came from the boy and there was an explosion. Momoko ducked downlow to the ground and began to move, noticing now just how loud her wooden geta were, she took them off half way around him, then she continued more silently until she was behind him.

She waited for the smoke to clear and then..

"...you missed."

"...you missed."

Hearing this from the girl, Raiga felt a bit surprised, but that quickly turned into amusement. He put on a goofy smile, turning to his opponent and taking a look at her more closely.

"Well, that's good...I kinda hoping it would missed, since I kinda have a fear of hurting you..."

That sort of talk was not to gain any sort of gentlemen points, since he was being a bit stereotypical, him a boy, nothing wanting to hit her, a girl. He got into stance and awaited her attack. His mind was focused, and he kept himself light on his toes, waiting to dodge an attack or something of the sort.

She watched him as he took a better look at her. Right, she might have just gotten some recognition.

"Well, that's good...I kinda hoping it would missed, since I kinda have a fear of hurting you..."

Then he got into stance. Despite usually being a quiet but playful childlike person..momoko had always changed during a fight, and more so recently and especially now that she didn't have to fight for her life. this sort of fighting was more..fun..

She smiled and chuckled a little as she got right back into her stance. "Don't be. If we don't make any hits, it'll be a boring fight."

She smirked a bit and then ran at him, pretty fast, but only medium for her...

Kaneda would recognize this move.

she seemed to charge right at him, and within the last few steps put on an extra burst of speed and at the same time lowering down to about knee length and doing some fancy foot work to where she got behind him. once she was there, she went to grab his shoulders and give him a good knee in the back, then land back on the ground and try to do a follow up with a judo flip.

Raiga smirked seeing as she charged towards him, not that he was going to evade the move, wanting her to actually hit him so he could see what he was dealing with. But when she added a burst of speed, and disappeared, he had a bit of guess where she would go. Not because he was some sort of psychic, but more because she got in back of him before when he couldn't visibly see her. So he turned quickly on his heel, and towards her, breaking any sort of grasp she would have on him.

Unfortunately, he couldn't evade her knee receiving it, and oddly enough with welcome arms. When he received the hit, he grunted in pain but he would let his opportunity go. His finger were oozing out his mix of gunpowder and oil, and with that he would go to grab her by the shoulders and pull her in so he could headbutt her. But he (hopefully) wouldn't be finished, and end it with a direct face to face explosion.

(OOC: Hopefully this is exceptionable, if it isn't, please PM me.)

As her opponent turned around, having guessed where she would turn up, she still got the satisfaction of the knee, but did not like where things were going when he grabbed her by the shoulders. Quickly, too quickly for his head butt, her right arm came and and seem to snake around his, while her left came and to grab the shoulder of hiss sleeve over the other arm. Lowering her body and sliding her foot to be next to his, she would knock him off balance if he did not do something quick, and wind up with him pinned on the ground in a favorable position of her liking.. But, she could not escape the explosion. This made her let go and back off a few feet, which eventually led to stumbling and then she was on her butt.

Even though her skin burn and sizzled with the impact of the explosion..she tried to crawl away for a little more distance. Thus she made a note to herself, distance fighting was impossible here because she had nothing to do so with, and close combat could possibly hurt her and be troublesome because of the explosions..still, close combat was her best bet she she'd best learn to get over it.

Raiga was a bit happy to have landed some hits on his opponent, the guilt of not hurting the girl was out of his head. He nodded his head to the girl, as if he knew that Momoko was finally understanding how he operated. But then again he had another trick up his sleeve.

Looking at the ground he stood on, he slammed his heel into it, breaking about a moderate chunk, as big as a baseball. After this, he broke it down again into smaller pieces (maybe 15 good pieces), about the size of rubble, maybe a little bit bigger. After seeing the pieces in his hand, he covered it with gunpowder and directed it towards Momoko.

"I think you can see where this is going."

He said rather slyly.

After such statement, he cause a moderate explosion, as the rubble would soon become pieces of flying debris, as if they were bullets, but maybe a bit slower. It was as if Raiga became a human shotgun.

-------

Itinerary of Actions:

*Took a peice of the stone ring.

*Crumbled it down into little pieces.

*Sent it at (generally) at you, like flying bullets, if you can say that.

Maybe a better way to describe how the rubble looks in his hand, definitely not that much though.

Still on her butt, Momoko watched as her opponent nodded in her direction, as if reading her mind and agreeing with her conclusion. That felt sort of eerie. For a slightl moment, she felt her hand touch something and immediately assumed it was one of her getas. once it was registered, she pretty much ignored it.

Then he kickd up a peice of the ring and crumbled in into rubble. Immediately, Momoko recognized that he gotten a way of forcing her to long distance fighting. And when he had added the powder... she sighed and leaned forward so now she was on her hands and knee, her shoulders seemed to slope a bit.

But this was all a split second before he had shot at her, so even if the thought that she might surrender had entered his mind, it would have been too late.

But not too worry! Quickly, Momoko ducked down, her hands, which were now sneakily covered with her wooden getas, were infrotn of her head to block any kind of damage, or more instictively, pain, to her head.

when it was over, she stayed crouched like that for a second more, before slowly getting up to standing. she let her getas slip off her hands and she reached over, taking her blue see through jacket, which now have a few large tears, one of which was flaming, off. She quietly took the fabric around the burning area and bunched it up, then she took her right hand and completely covered the small fire.


now, we won't lie and say that this little girl who is usually so shy, cute, and innocent, did not get hurt by this serious action. it's true..some people might NOT get hurt by doing this..but it did hurt her.. her jaw clenched, for that was all that she would allow herself to show. thankfully the fire was small and was out quick as a light so she need not tormet herself for a prolonged amount of it. Quietly she let the jacket fall to the ground and she looked towards raiga for a moment, before taing a step to the right side for no apparent reason.

she was quiet for a moment after that.. then she smiled, 'You know...I don't really know what to do next.."

She said finally shaking out her hands.

Raiga had to admit, the girl was pretty quick on her feet, he had honestly thought that with that previous attack, this match would be over, but he was kinda happy when that wasn't the outcome. He wasn't going to attack while she came back from the attack, that would be bad taste.

"You know...I don't really know what to do next.."

Hearing this, he chuckled, probably because he was thinking the same thing. He definitely did not know what to do next. But with some thinking, he finally came up with something to do, it wasn't genius, but he had to do something, plus he could probably get an advantage this way.

He got himself in position, and then hurled himself at her with all that he could muster, charging at her to be specific. His hands were already prepared for what he was to do next, for when his legs finally got him within 6 feet of her, he jumped up into the air, with the explosion he caused at the same time to propel him higher up.

" Catch me if you can!"

he taunted.

As he chuckled and then charged her, Momoko had slipped into that serious train of thought again, not totally snapped out of following a serious way of taking a fight yet. she was preparing for him but suddenly he lept into the air, using his explosions to get him up higher than he usually would.

" Catch me if you can!"

..a fight in mid air...

Nope, that was not something that momoko had picked up or had any known ability for..so now she either had to wait for him to come down.. or do something.

Doing nothing but wait seemed like a surefire way to spoil the fun..and seeing him in the air like that, challenging her to get him...got her to thinking..

She looked down at the ground, eyeing the rumble around her..

She looked back up at the boy in the air and made to look like she was going to jump up there with him...But quickly just grabbed a rock and chucked it at him, with a smirk. Her thoughts went to kande and grandpa seto who were watching too, and imagining their reactions.

The young man felt a sense of joy, his body rocketing upwards, but looking down, with a grimace, he saw something rather unfortunate; a rock coming towards him. As the rock came after him, Raiga had to seriously think on what to do; and out of no where, he punched the rock with both hands. The pain was one that he could endure, and this now shattered rock could be used as an offensive strategy.

He quickly grabbed the pieces and prepared for another shot-gun like attack. As gravity dragged him down, he waited for the right timing and sent high-speed rubble raining over 60% of the ring. Though if Momoko were to doge this, he was sure that she would be too distracted to meet his next attack with a perfect defense.

He was also thinking about if she did dodge the raining down of debris, and came back with attack, how he dodge in mid-air. He prepared his gunpowder, so with the force of the explosion, he could kinda maneuver himself away from her, but this was only if she could dodge this hailing of rubble.

She was expecting only to hit him, or at best, knock him down faster..

However he had broken it into even smaller peices and shot them around again. She was showered upon by small, fast moving peices of earth, and no joke, it HURT! She could only dodge the bigger ones, smacked away medium chunks, and got stung by the smaller ones.

By the time she was done 'dancing' (haha), she was back where she had started the fight, with her left hand occupying itself with folding a fold of her hakama, her right hand up with her palm facing her. with a small smile, because she truely was enjoying some part of this, she waved his on with the classic 'bring it' motion.

hey1 they were here to fight, and the audience was expecting great shows from this tournement..and...this was actually pretty fun...

'Good, good! Now it's time to Rock and Roll!'

With a eager smirk marking his features, he was waiting to drop down, but he was prepared for this situation, and snapped his fingers in reply to it; a explosion throwing himself a couple of feet to the left of where he would have landed. Just to escape the clutches. of Momoko momentarily He had a bit of work when landing on his feet, nearly falling, but he swiftly brought his feet down to the ground and recovered.

He looked to Momoko, to see her in stance and ready for action. She was challenging him to come forward, which he actually thought was bold; he liked bold.

"Well, it's time to finish this...I have to admit, you're not bad."

He quickly stopped after that, remembering that this was a fight, and that he was to express himself with his fist.

He ran towards Momoko, as simple as that, wanting to maybe finish this battle with fist alone, no more explosions, no more trickery.

She was glad to see that he landed alright, though he seemed close to falling before gaining his balance back.

"Well, it's time to finish this...I have to admit, you're not bad."

She smiled, truely grateful that she had the honor of fighting with this guy when it wasn't life or death. "Neither are you.."

And like that, the respect that could only be forged in battle, seemed to be forged between them. he then started rushing at her with fists at the ready. momoko activated one of her abilities and all of a sudden her opponent was a bunch of muscles working to move a single mass. Then she ran up to meet him, she wasn't into using fists, as they sent thoughts of brutality through her mind, but she could use her soft style just as well.

For every punch he might throw, she would try to either block them or slap them aside. A few might have hit her , still though, she would wait for a moment, as he tired himself out with punches, before slapping away one of his punches, then moving in to try and get one of her own punches in, directly for her target, the middle of the chest. Then if that worked out, she would go up into the chin.

He was ready to end this, and sure that there was time limit for this match, so that gave him a bit more motivation to let the fat lady sing already. His feet were almost clawing at the ground as he sprinted towards Momoko, and it wasn't long before he got to her.

4...3...2...1 foot away from her, did he extend his fist, but when he his hand safely within punching distance, he opened his hand and revealed something.

To real fighters, it would have probably been a shameful thing. For within his hand, was gun powder, and within that particular moment, did he let it off. He was sure this would end the match, for she had to be within 2 meters to feel the effects of the blast, and her body as of now was nearly 2 inches away from his hand.

(ooc: I'm sooo sorry! XDDD But he's that type of guy)

She saw it right before the blast. The punch that she had failed to block, had gone straight to her chest, and as it was against her training to look at it, she could only guess by the the movement of the muscles in his forearm.. Her eyes had widened and she didn't know sound those last couple seconds. Everything had stopped or gone slow motion.

Then there was the blast.

Momoko was a blank slate of suprise and bodily shock as she few several feet backwards. Her mind only snapped back enough to land on her feet, right before her body leaned back and with a last effort, she broguth it forward, and ended up lowering onto one hand and knee...she really didn't think of it then, but it sort of looked like a defeated bow.

her body was numb, and there was a ringing in her ears. When she could finally force through the pain enough to touch where she was burned..it hurt..it hurt bad. It took the whole strength in her jaw not to cry out from it.

Then she saw that her blue jacket was near her...slowly, very slowly, and fighting against the pain, she grabbed it and hugged it against her chest, where she knew the explosion had blew away her clothes. but she grew weaker and more unwilling to move the more she did move and used her energy to fight the pain alone.

she counted ten second to herself, and then shook her head. She wasn't going to be able to move herself anymore, let alone fight....though she most likely wouldn't have fought any more even if she physically could..because she now had a bare chest.

But now it was over, she gave up. There was no need to continue fighting when she was defeated, especially in the way that Masafumi raiga had defeated her in this match.

Call me cute again...

Our hyper active judge/referee, wiped a tear of her eye “That was beautiful”, she walked toward the ring and loudly started to say “Ladies and Gentlemen we have a Winner!!!” she grabbed Masafumi’s hand and raised it, “Our Girl Kick ass didn’t she? So let give her a round of applause before she’s taken to the medic booth”
Low enough for Momoko and Masafumi to hear “You two did great, remember what happened in the ring stays in the ring so have fun” she gave them a wink and continued doing her Job “You think these two Kid’s did great? Wait for the next match between, nah, I’ll tell you in a minute”

Medics rushed into the scene, putting Momoko in a stretcher, and rushing out they where fast efficient and above all professional. “You should go too Masafumi, we wouldn’t want nothing to happen to you before the next match” an evil shimmer on our hipper presenter appeared.


Fight 1 Finished!!!! Masafumi Raiga Advances to the second round
