"HAAA"!!!
Emi thrust her hand forward and an invisible force blasted the oversized rather hairy man from the crudely constructed ring, a circle of tightly bound rope. It was her powerful 'Kiai' which had more than enough pressure to send the strongest of martial artists flying through the air to crash down with a horribly nasty landing, shock akin to being hit by a highly compressed ball of air. Of course she held back as to not break the poor man. He staggered unsteadily to his feet and teetered off muttering under his breath leaving his money behind.
Emi was in the streets of West City. She was there for two reasons, firstly was to try to meet some decent fighters out there. She was tired of all the weaklings that failed to live up to her greatness. Why could there not be more people like her brother? Well that was wishful thinking was it not. Emi grinned, there was no one greater than her brother to her. She was also there to make some quick cash; her savings was just a little short off buying a large piece of land to the north of West City where she and her brother could practice without fear of destroying too much.
Another competitor dropped a wad of cash into the hand of Emi's friend, Mia. These challenges were amusing, all she had to do was make the fight look good but win in the end. That way people would still continue to try thinking the others were simply stupidly weak. The matter of the fact was that Emi was simply too strong for pretty much anybody on Earth to compete with. Even her mind was honed to a dagger's point. Once she got home she would would have a good time browsing on the net. But of course she had an opponent in front of her, Emi needed to focus. Focus on making the fight look 'convincing'.
Emi grinned cheekily up at the man. "Ready for some fun"? She hopped from toe to toe in a boxers stance in her pale pink sleeveless vest. Her tight black shorts along with the boots she wore on her feet really gave the air of a sexy sporty girl, a slight distraction for the challengers. Not that she really needed it. A small crowd had gathered around the perimeter of the circle, all interested in the fights they had been watching, the majority cheering for the cute girl who had been beating down all her opponents. Emi paused for a moment and picked up her black wristbands from Mia. "Make it look extra close 'kay"? said Mia as she handed them over. Emi slipped them on and stuck her tongue out at her. "naturally"!
With that Mia rung the bell, the resounding gong marking the beginning of the fight. The man charged forwards and jumped sending a triad of swift kicks in mid air. Emi ducked the first and blocked the second and third. Upon landing he followed up with a series of fast kicks which Emi slipped 'just about' past. This man was surprisingly good, though still no match for her. Well it would do good to look pressured so with his next kick, a side thrust, Emi took it hit full on.
"Gah"! She was launched backwards a fair bit. She clutched at her stomach which took the brunt of the blow. It, in actuality did no damage to her at all but it served its purpose in making the fight look remotely fair. Emi ran forwards to start an offensive of her own, a flurry of sharp punches aimed at various locations on his body. The man did well in avoiding a couple and blocking the rest. Emi with a naughty twinkle in her eye sent a kick upwards utilising her flexibility coming up vertically, a side kick rising to the sky through his chin. The man let out a pained grunt as he fell back landing just on the inside of the ring. Emi 'panted' as she of course would be 'short of breath' after such a 'strenuous offensive'.
The man got to his feet looking a little worse for wear, a trickle of blood noted of the corner of his lip. Emi playing the part well kept a stern focused expression on her face. "You're good for a girl but this time I will not be holding back you hear me"? He was agitated. He had staked a fair amount of his money and his pride on this match. To him losing was not an option. To Emi, losing was unfortunately for this man an inevitability. This time Emi took a different stance, one that suited a martial artist like herself. In the next little bout she would end the match so she could get the next under way. The man let out a strange battle cry and swung the first blow.
Emi was ready to end the match but not in this very instance. The man's punch came in towards her face and she intercepted it with her own fist.They collided with a solid impact and the man let out a small yelp of pain, unable to take the small percentage of force Emi applied with her own. He swung his leg low aiming to sweep her off her feet. However this time Emi slid her leg across to hit his. Instead of the obvious happening, the smaller girl being swept of her feet the man let out a louder cry as he was knocked a few feet backwards after the small shift she made hopping back a few metres clutching his pain stricken shin. With a angry roar he blindly dived forwards, hoping the grapple the girl. Emi however was having none of it. The match came to a close.Emi dashed forwards, closing the gap in a instant and slammed her palm into his chest.
"KAAAA"!
Her palm strike had enough force to hurt the man enough to make him lose by declaration of defeat but to make things clear she released another 'Kiai' launching him soaring out of the ring into the crowd and people bowling over a couple of them. The cheers resounded from the entertaining match. Emi laughed happily. She could make a living like this although she already had one working for Capsule Corporation. This was just to supplement an expensive hobby item, if you call land an item.
With that fight over Mia announced there would be no more fights today and the group of people began to disperse as Emi high fived Mia. "Here this is for helping me out Mia". She handed her a small wad of Zenny. Mia thanked her and after they had packed the rope, bell and cash into Emi's bag she left, a date to make for the next twenty minutes with her boyfriend. Emi sighed stretching to the sky. Perhaps she would find sufficient competition at the World Martial Arts Tournament. That would be fun. With that cheerful thought in mind she hurried off to the office to pay off the sum to purchase to land. Kye would be pleased.
