Fighting Like a Girl (Kate)

[Kate]

He was fast, but Kate was faster. And she would remain faster if she had to hurt herself to do it. Kate liked being faster than everyone else in the school, she was going to work VERY hard to keep it that way. The blonde was faster than Fei Long, that much was for certain. His hand shot out to her face, and he was so close it was going to be hard to fully dodge the thing.

Her head flinched to the side, and his hand connected into the side of her face. And that was when Kate realized... he was weak. Laughter erupted from the blonde even as she launched into her next attack.

The girl pulled back just a touch, and tried to slam her fist up into his ribs. Hoping to break something, once again.

((OOC: Short post, sorry!!!! ))

[Fei Long]

Kate was powerful. That much was obvious. That didn't mean there was no hope though! Kate may be faster...Kate may be stronger...Kate may be more dangerous...

What was the point again?

RIGHT! Kate may be all those things, but that doesn't necessarily mean she's smarter! If there was anything Fei Long learned about battles, it was when severely outmatched: cheat. Despite having started his movements before Kate's, she still managed to see it in time to severely minimize the damage. Yeah, she might be faster...but she wasn't as clever.

Fei Long's snake strike would strike the side of Kate's beautiful face, glancing off of the skin. As his hand missed its target, Fei Long's hand would form a leopard's claw. Turning his hand ninety degrees clockwise his palm would face Kate as he extended his thumb, digging it into her right temple. His hand would grip in front of her eyes, his fingers clawing in to her left eye for a gouge that would hinder her vision for the rest of the fight. Kate was faster, but Fei Long's movement would only be an inch or two, where her entire arm went into motion.

"Where's the giggles now, girl?" Fei Long spat as he grew frustrated with the damage already taken from this fight, intent on not letting it end so one-sided.

If Kate still attempted the punch, Fei Long would turn just enough with his gouge to take it to the kidney, which caused devastating pain but resulted in no broken ribs. The turn would also dig his fingers farther into Kate's eye, possibly damaging it for a longer period of time. If all went according to plan, Fei Long would step through with his right foot, sweeping behind Kate's legs to slam her head backwards down into the ground with his gouging hand.

[Kate]

HE WAS ATTACKING HER FACE!!!! THAT WAS A NO NO!!! Kate was rather vain, and her face was a piece that she really would rather keep intact without much damage. So her blow to the ribs stopped in an instance, and she shifted gears. Even as his hand wrapped around her face and pressed into her eye Kate lost control of herself... TANK SMASH!!!! HULK SMASH BAD THING!!!! Yeah, attacking Kate's face really was the best way to get hurt bad, quickly.

Her attacking arm moved as quickly as it could to slam into the elbow of the attacking arm. Her foot lifted and aimed itself at his crotch. The family goodies as soon as her fist hit or not. That's right, if he wanted to fight dirty, then the cheer leader would fight dirty back. The girl was known to fight dirty, and was known to make the crotch shots when she really wanted to. As she did now. There were no giggles, nothing of that sort. Instead, Kate just wanted to inflict pain.

[Fei Long]

I don't get it...I just can't seem to hurt her!

Fei Long dug his finger in harder, intent on injuring her eye even more, now that she was protecting it with such ferocity. She even abandoned hurting Fei Long worse for the moment, instead going back to get his hand off her face. And that's when the moment presented itself. Oh, the beauty.

That's it! If I can't hurt her, let's make her hurt herself!

The punch was obvious, despite its speed. Fei Long pushed his shoulder forward, bending his elbow at the joint while keeping his hand in her face and eye, even pulling it in towards him slightly. When her fist would connected, it wouldn't be the flat joint that would cause damage to Fei Long, but the point of the elbow. All Kate's speed, all Kate's power would work against her now, her fist punching the sharp elbow with such force that it would likely injure her own fist. God bless the human anatomy, and the strength of a pointed elbow.

Like all men, Fei Long was also adamant about not letting her kick strike his olsen twins down below. Working with his bending arm, Fei Long's right leg would turn inwards, bending at the knee. Pointing it down, he would once again put an obstruction in her kicks trajectory. Instead of the soft tissue, the top of her foot would strike the hard bent knee of Fei Long, once again using all that speed and power against her, making it likely to hurt something in her foot, or ankle given the angle.

[Kate]

There were a few things in life that you never expect to happen, and hitting yourself like that was one of them. Kate of course fell for it because she was angered. Her pretty face!!! Bastard. Really? Who goes for a pretty face? Freaking bastard.

The look in her startled emerald eyes suggested she hadn't been thinking about hitting herself in the least bit. This kid was a tricky fish, wasn't he? That hand was still on her face... and if he wasn't letting go then Kate would make him. He'd need it to defend himself.

As for her foot? Well it SNAPPED as expected, but it was just Kate's Qi. A normal person probably would have had a very injured ankle. But Kate had a Qi no one else did, and it damn well helped. Her ankle bent at a weird angle and looked damn well broken. However, the blonde swung her right fist at his face, ignoring the pain she was putting her body through. The broken ankle looking leg? She pulled back, and went for a knee to the ribs, just assaulting him. Kate would push forward with more punches to the face, and kicks until he got away or blocked.

[Fei Long]

...it worked?

With nothing working out as planned so far, Fei Long was in awe as both her fist and foot hit his defenses, a loud crack coming from the ankle, Fei Long obviously over-estimating the damage done due to his lack of background in Kate's special...abilities.

As such, Fei Long continued with what he had planned earlier for the cute blonde. Stepping through with his right foot he'd place it behind Kate in preparation for a sweep to send her to the ground. Out of sheer luck, Fei Long's left hand had been kept close to his face, therefore taking the right handed punch in the hand for an accidental deflection. Kate's power would cause Long's hand to slap himself in his face, creating a mental sigh that he'd remember to be ashamed of later.

Not expecting the knee, Fei Long would still be striked in his right hip, having turned his side to face Kate while stepping through with the right. As his hip began to bruise and cramp, he still swung his leg back, taking out her balance with her one base leg by striking the back of the knee. Fei Long would push down with his right hand, planning on slamming her head into the ground as he fell on top of her, using his full body weight to do so.

[Kate]

Let us take a moment to understand just how many times Kate has hit her head in her life. She use to be a decently clumsy girl, and had smacked it in her freshman days many a times. In many of her fights, she had hit her head. All and all, the girl was damn well use to damaging her head. It hurt none the less though!!!

Her knee had smacked into his hip, hurting him. Just before he made her balance rather non-existent of course. Her left hand reached out and grabbed his upper arm. If she was going down, then he was too. The pale girl slammed into the ground and grunted. Her head hit and it hurt, but that was life and she would deal with it.

"Fucker."

Never mind the fact, if she had grabbed him correctly he would be on top of her. If so, she'd try to slam Her knee back into his hip as hard as she could while headbutting him in the nose again. DAMAGE! If not, she'd kick up and into his ribs with both heels. Yay.

[Fei Long]

From the get go, Fei Long planned to go down on top of her. With someone as tough as Kate, he wasn't going in with any less than full body weight. As such, when Kate pulled him down, he'd only kick his legs up from behind him, diving down to the ground with 100% of the impact of the fall and slam going into the back of Kate's head. More than enough to knock out a regular fighter, Fei Long was sure it would cause some damage, but wasn't holding his breath for a knockout. Not that it would be out of the question either, though.

With Fei Long planning on going down the entire time, he'd be able to gain a better position quicker as he fell on top. He'd fall into a mounting position, keeping his right hand against her face as he continued to push down with all his strength, attempting to hold her down to keep her head from coming up in the headbutt. Kate's knee would come up as well, though with Fei Long's new position it would end up hitting him in the butt cheek instead.

Having never removed the finger from her eye, Fei Long began to dig deeper once more, briefly wondering if the slam would have caused pretty severe damage to her eye. He kept his left up, preparing to do his best to defend from any flying fists she'd bring up.

"Look, if you promise to stop hitting me, I'll get up and we can call this even. I don't want to destroy the eye of someone as pretty as you."

[Kate]

"Then don't do it jackass."

She was tired off this now. One hand lifted and grabbed the wrist of the hand that was digging into her eye. She found the pressure points on the sides, and squeezed. As hard as she could. And unless he was made of tougher stuff, she might even break his wrist. However, it was not going to continue to dig into her face. Not by a long shot.

That was her left, her right balled into a fist and sought his ribs. She really wanted to break something. The blonde girl really wanted to break something of this man's body, and hurt him badly.

"Look here cutie. I'm not loosing to you, and we both damn well know it. If you give up, I might let you keep your balls. Or I just might make you a slave, if you ask nicely."

Teasing and flirting, Kate could do it in her sleep.

[Fei Long]

Her left hand moved up to grab his wrist. Fei Long just couldn't get past the fact that she was a girl, and had the grip of a cobra. Made him feel sorry for the poor bastards she dated. A moment later he looked back down at her, and didn't feel sorry anymore. It went back to envy.

With his primary damage maker out of the equation for the moment, Fei Long leaned forward, still sitting atop her to keep her from getting up all together. As her left fist came forward, Fei Long didn't plan too much to try and block it, given the trial and error done earlier in the fight. He dropped his left hand on top of her bicep, pushing her arm back to the ground before it could fully swing up and hit him. She was stronger, but she had no leverage from the ground, and doubted that her strength would still be able to overpower Fei Long's entire body in just the one arm.

"Whatever, fine." Fei Long sighed, still pinning her down to avoid any strikes for the moment while he kept speaking, hoping she wouldn't find a way to hit him in the time being.

"Call it what you want, but just for the record, I'm only doing this because I don't want to hurt you. Now, if you'll let go of me, I'll let go of you and we can both stand up and make up."

Whether Kate would believe his reasonings or not, the end result would be the same if she accepted. Upon release from her vice grip, Fei Long would sit up, relieving the pressure on her right arm. Slowly, he'd rise to his feet, backing up to her left side with his hands up in the air in a show of good faith.

[Kate]

There was a grin on those full lips of hers. As he began to slowly remove his hand and begin to back away. Nope. Not on her watch. The blonde sat up quicker than a cobra and grabbed him by his shirt front before he could completely get away. Was she attacking? Maybe in a way. She leaned forward and planted her lips on his.

That's right, she was kissing him. Kate gave kisses away like candy. She had kissed a few guys since coming to 42, and none of them had been her boyfriend. The blonde leaned slightly back, one eyebrow lifted on her forehead. There was a smirk on her lips.

"Make up?"

There was a smirk on her pale face and she flipped backward, and onto her feet. Rising quickly and beginning to dust of her things. In her book? He had lost. Given up. That was that.

"Did you just get in town?"

[Fei Long]

That cheating whor-

Fei Long's mental slander was cut short, the brain activity coming to a sudden halt as Kate pressed her lips against Fei Long's. His arms halted halfway on their way back to protect himself. He stood there eyes wide, not so surprised by the action, but more so the time frame in which it had occured. A few seconds ago she had called him both fucker and jackass. Guess that just mean he was her type.

"Oh, uh...yeah." Fei Long spoke without processing the question, taking a moment to shake the cobwebs out of his head before speaking again.

"I mean yeah, kind of. I'm from here, but I've been away for a while. Visiting family and the like I suppose. I take it your a regular yourself?"

[Kate]

She continued to brush dirt off her clothing, and just flashed him a grin. Those emerald eyes danced around for a bit, and she tapped a finger to her lips. It looked like she did it in thought, but really she was drawing attention back to her lips. Because she had kissed him and all that jazz.

"I'm decently new. Just starting here really."

It was true. She hadn't been here too long. Kate tilted her head to the side, blonde locks falling over one shoulder. Those emerald eyes never left him. She had an idea in her head, planted there because that was just how she worked.

"I would like to know if you like fun? Do you like to fight all the time?"

She thought the answers were yes, but she still asked them for a reason. The girl wanted to ask him a few things, and figure out a few things... so she could pull him into the Reapers if he wasn't already in a gang.

[Fei Long]

Do I like fun? What kind of stupid question is that?

"Do I like fun? What kind of stupid question is that?" Fei Long spoke his thoughts after a moment, finding it better to verbalize than speak them anyways.

"I'm pretty sure everyone likes fun. Just depends on the type. Guess that leads me to door number two."

Fei Long paused for a second, finding it alot harder to verbalize his thoughts for a change. Short answer, yes. But there were variables that counted. Beneath all the good looks and skills there was a concious. He just didn't always bring it out.

"Yes, but only if there's a challenge in it. There's no conquest in stomping out the weak."

[Kate]

She laughed out loud because of his reaction. The blonde was indeed having fun with this. The pale girl walked toward him slowly, one foot in front of the other until she was just a breath away. She had a sway about her hips when she walked, made guys stare.

"You'd be surprised, there are people out there who punish themselves by denying fun. I've met a few."

She reached out, and smoothed down the shirt front she had startled before. The pale girl smiled up at him, emerald eyes sparkling. Kate knew how to turn on the charm.

"What if I told you, that I could get you all the fun fights you could want? Fighting all the powerful people in the area, all the challenges you could want?"
