A brand new group is on the making, The Apostles, a Pillar-like group led by none other than our brand new headmaster, Gregoire Girard. A student body that would lead students and enforce the law on this little school of ours. Little is still known about this student body, but who knows? It might just be what the school needs.

A lunch box is seen last Friday, around 12:37:08pm with an encouraging note packed inside. This appalling display that utterly lacked manliness has left many students stunned and outrage, as some decided, after a long while, to speak out against it.

[OoC: Lock your stats in your first post. The stats you begin the tournament with are the stats you will end the tournament with. No items of any kind, and no Qi allowed. Participants must post within 24 hours of each other. Failure to do so leads to disqualification. If there is no clear winner within five days of the fight being posted, it will be decided by Staff through a grading rubric. This is a no holds barred fight, so if you feel the need to break some limbs, you go ahead and break some limbs. Post your entrance in the first round, and go ahead and start fighting as soon as you like. Let's get crackin'.] @atalanta and Kazuya Hikari would be led to the exit of the waiting room at the request that they wear no shoes, and all three would be taken down separate paths by women in white coats. The paths were dark hallways, lit only by flickering LED bulbs hanging from the ceiling, that stretched on for what seemed like forever. It would become evident that they were nearing the end of the pathway, however, as the roar of the crowd grew louder and louder with each passing moment, with every step they took. Finally, the three would come to doorways that, once opened, would reveal an arena which would prove to be quite troublesome. The two would be led to a large square room, 20 feet long, wide, and tall. There were five-foot square tiles on the ground, and heavy rain poured from the ceiling, into drains hidden in the nooks and crannies of the walls. After the three entered and their announcements were made, all of the lights would shut off in the room, aside from one. Each round, one square tile on the floor would light up, providing the only illumination in the entire room as the combatants were to do battle with the rain falling upon them. It would start with the northeast corner, then the southeast, southwest, northwest, and repeat. Only one light would be active at any given time. "Aaaaaaaaaand from doooor number one! She's got a long-time problem with one of our favored local gangs, but more than that, she's a pretty face with the strength to break yours, PHOEEBEEEE HOLLOOOOOWS!" Phoebe would be met with a mixed reaction from the crowd, some cheering for the femme fatale, others booing at the fact that she was anti-RIOT. "But wait! From doooor number twoooo! This young Jap has making a name for himself across the city, standing up against the bad guys Like Orochi, LET'S WELCOME KAAZUYAAAA HIKARIIII!" Unlike Phoebe, Kazuya's crowd reaction was entirely positive, solely due to the fact that it was stated he and Orochi did not get along. Aside from that, however, all they cared about this day was seeing these two rip each other to pieces. "Alright you bastards, this ain't over until one of you just can't get back up! IT'S TIIIIIME FOR THE BAAAAAREKNUCKLE BEATDOOOOOOOOOOOOOWN!" |

 Having already removed his shoes, and for good measure, unwrapped the part of his training bandages around his feet, leaving his legs still wrapped but completely barefoot, Kazuya would be led down a dimly lit hallway by a woman in a white coat. The hallway feeling like it stretched on forever, soon the roar of the crowd at the end of the hallway would reach his ears, and upon reaching a doorway, as soon as it was opened once his name was announced, he would step out into an arena, finding himself immediately drenched by the heavy rain pouring down.
Taking a moment to scan his surroundings, noting one square of the arena was lit up, the only source of light in the otherwise pitch black arena, though the positive roar of the crowd was encouraging, he wasn't about to let his guard down. Though his opponent was female, he wasn't going to let that stop him from fighting to come out on top, and would show her the respect her fighting abilities deserved. Taking up a simple stance, his right hand held loosely in front of his chin, his left hand in front of his sternum, he would space his feet apart evenly.
The floor was going to be slippery with the rain pouring down heavily, and one wrong step would spell disaster. He would let Phoebe make the first move, as he would watch and wait.

Phoebe was relaxed, right as - ironically, she would soon come to find out - as rain. No wraps, no shoes...it didn't bother her. More often than not she trained without footwear, so her feet were somewhat calloused, not smooth.
She was following one of the attendants in her white coat, and as the roar of the crowd grew as she walked down the corridor, her blood began to hum as her energy rose. Stepping out into the arena, Bee found it plenty surprising, the conditions in the arena. Her eyebrows lifted as she stepped out, thankful she had put her hair up and out of her face. Immediately the rain started to drench the clothes she did have, and she used a few moments to test the grip of the wet tiles as she - literally - got her feet wet.
She grinned a little as her name was called.
The moment the crowd gave her the mixed reaction, though, Bee immediately tuned them out before they could get to her. The energy from before was all she needed; she didn't need the current backing to win.
She had herself and relied on herself in a fight such as this. She'd done this before. She was capable.
The roar for Kazuya made a faint smile spark her lips before her expression smoothed to neutrality as the lights suddenly shut off, completely, and the arena was plunged to darkness.
The rain was a crystalline sound.
She could feel her pulse, hear her breathing.
And one of the tiles lit up, illuminating a fair portion of the arena despite the falling water.
Interesting.
And her opponent was, apparently, waiting.
Cocky or smart?
Smart, of course.
Neither of them knew anything about how the other fought. Bee rolled her shoulders and tilted her head a bit, neck popping slightly. She advanced. She wouldn't be able to risk a lot of constant movement with the floor so slick, but it felt like she would have some decent grip and traction regardless.
The first exchange, she figured, would be testing each other.
The crowd would probably be displeased by her walking towards Kazuya as the tile went dark and the next one lit up, but, it was her own way of showing respect.
Phoebe was here for a good fight.
She wanted to win, too, of course, but she didn't go in cocky. Her silent combatant didn't seem to do that, either.
Bee was careful as she came into Kazuya's reach, and about ten feet away from that point, her hands moved up into her customary high-low boxing guard as she advanced. Just two people, one ring, one match.
Pulling in a smooth breath, Bee would step forward with her left foot and simultaneously strike with a left jab (the higher hand in her guard) for Kazuya's face; her foot tapped the wet floor at the same time as her hand would reach the apex of the jab, and just as quickly retract as she would move back!
Test. Testing, one, check.

As the left jab came for his face, Kazuya would shift his right arm up in front of his face, managing to block Phoebe's strike, which he knew served as a test of his abilities. Just as Phoebe had thrown a test jab, Kazuya too would launch a quick left jab of his own, aiming for Phoebe's face as she retracted her left arm at the apex of her jab. Sure the crowd may not be thrilled that the two of them were only trading test blows at the moment, but neither one knew the fighting capabilities of the other.
Retracting his left fist at the apex of his jab, he'd then go to follow up with a flat-palm strike for Phoebe's stomach, to knock both the wind out of her and her back as he moved his left arm back in front of his sternum, to act as a guard against any counterattacks she sent at him. |

Her step back as her jab was retracted enabled her bob further to Kazuya's left evade his jab, but...whew, that was too close for comfort.
Actually, it was exciting!
With her feet planted and her hands retracted back into position, Bee could use her lower right hand to slam down and sweep out a little, knocking Kazuya's strike off just enough. He wouldn't hit dead center like he wanted, but he did catch her more to the right, twisting her a little...
And this realigning her so as she would strike out quickly: her left sole against his right knee, looking to take him off his feet!
She knew it was risky, and so tried to emphasize her speed a bit (like stepping with a jab; it had to be quick out, and quick back), and would take a half step back as she brought her foot back to the slick surface, trying to take advantage as the lights shifted again!

Although his flat-palm strike was knocked off its target, striking Phoebe in the side as opposed to dead-center in her stomach, the diverting of his strike helped more than hindered him, as it allowed him to use the momentum to shift his right arm to just barely block the strike to his right knee in time. From there, though the pain from the strike caused him to wince slightly, he would quickly whip his right arm out from under Phoebe's left sole and attempt to grab her ankle.
If he managed to get a hold of her ankle, he would then quickly lift her leg up, in an attempt to unbalance her, before throwing her leg to the side, to try and make her slip and topple over. |

He was pretty slick, able to read her very well, which was pretty surprising! Must have his fair share of combat experience.
And he was fast, too, but so was she.
Kazuya would have to have leaned down slightly in order to block her foot against his knee. So, instead of retracting it once she hit his arm, her leg snapped upwards in a slight arc to hopefully slam the inside of her foot against the side of Kazuya's face, which might be a bit tricky to defend from in his position, slightly lowered as it would be. It would lack a lot of her normal power but would still jolt and disorient if it connected!
She gave a grunt of exertion and would then try to replant her foot if all went well, prepared to move to capitalize on an attack or defend!
He was good, though. She liked the challenge as it ramped up.

While it was true he had to lean down slightly to block Phoebe's strike to his knee, because he had his left arm held as a guard in front of his sternum, as her leg snapped upwards in an arc for the side of his face, it wasn't as tricky to block as she thought. Simply opening his hand up to catch her leg, his hand stopping mere inches from his face, he would quickly wrapping his hand around her leg, his right hand would quickly snap up and wrap around Phoebe's leg as well, both hands gripping her leg, before he would quickly try to lift her leg up and subsequently throw her leg to his left, to hopefully send her off-balance.
From there, if it worked, as he released her leg, he would quickly step towards her and send a flat-palm strike for her shoulder, to continue keeping her off-balance.

Bee blinked as her foot was caught. As Kazuya shifted his right arm, Phoebe bent her leg further and would shoot her right hand out to grab a fistful of Kazuya's hair.
And hold. Tight.
With his hands and arms around her leg he had control.
But couldn't block the screaming left cross that was coming for his for his mostly stationary face right as she got a good grip!

Although Phoebe managed to grab a fistful of his hair, holding his head in place, he wasn't completely helpless. As the left cross came for his face, he would quickly lift both his arms above his head, thereby lifting Phoebe's leg up while simultaneously shoving her forward, in an attempt to send her toppling backwards and onto the wet arena floor, though this would mean some his hair would end up being ripped out, but his hair was relatively short, he'd live. This also served to block the left cross to his face, as his right arm would come up in front of his face, to take the hit for him.
If all went well, as Phoebe toppled to the floor, Kazuya would quickly dart forward and sit on top of her, straddling her core and prevent her from using her legs, before proceeding to launch a barrage of punches at her head, aiming for a quick knock out. |

With both fighters being basically even, in the end it comes down to nitpicking to decide who moves on. With the last round, Kazuya Hikari had far better leverage and positioning and thus will be moving on to round to. Both him and @atalanta receive +1 Exp. |
