Upon arriving to the club, all of the fighters for the evening would be lead inside and through the building. They would get to see the large ring, surrounded by the cage. Above it would be a huge, four sided display. That would allow any of those in the, rising row upon row of seat. Spot lights of varying shapes and sizes would hang from metal scaffold above, and surrounding the TV screens, which above that would have a glass walled room built into the roof.
The fighters would be taken away from the main area and down into separate dressing rooms in the back areas of the club. The rooms would have all manner of different clothes, a fighter could dream of wearing in the ring. From the extremely over the top, to the basic and simple. The fighters would be given ample time to change, and eventually in their rooms they would be able to hear, the background noise of people building up in the ring area. A few minutes later a voice would come out over speakers.
"Good evening, ladies, gentlemen and not so gentle men as well. I bring to you the first ever tournament of it kinds to grace these walls. Public High School #552, with it violence and bullies, has lent to us tonight it bests and fittest. There skill, there pain, and spilt blood upon the sheet will be our show tonight."
Quite some time would pass, as the first two fight went by and then the doors to Shugo's and Levi's rooms would be opened. A suited man greeting them both and leading them to separate sides of the arena. Rock music would start to play, and Shugo would be pushed out.
"With no face and no name, does this man have any shame. Our new little batman wannabe, oh this I have got to see, how quick this fall is going be." Shugo would be ushered to the ring and a gate would open to let him inside. Before new music would play, and much in the same way Levi would be pushed out.
"And our second contestant, game to Levy a tax down of a smack down. Levi Kaiyama"
"Let the Mayhem begin."

Mayhem... He created this entire charade. It looked like I was going to have to get through this entire tournament before I could get to him. Luckily for me, Gabriella Santos was one of the people in this god forsaken tournament. I was going to take her down and turn her in for hospitalizing Allen. Then, I was going to take down Mayhem and turn him in for this illegal fight club. I ignored all of the clothes inside of the changing room. I had everything I needed. I was dressed in all black, a v-neck t-shirt, skinny jeans, a pair of high top sneakers, and a light canvas jacket. Of course to top it all off, I wore my black half mask. Instead of the usual blue hair, my hair was dyed brown again for this tournament. I stepped into the ring, pulling my gloves onto my hands tightly. I turned to the kid I was supposed to be fighting. I honestly didn't want to hurt him, so I decided to give him an out. I spoke in a deeper voice than usual. "I don't mean to sound condescending, but I have no other choice to make it to final round of this tournament. I'll fight you if that's what you want, but I can't afford to hold back. Because of that I don't want to hurt you, so if you want to back down from the fight and let me move on, I won't hold it against you." STR|15 DEX|18 CON|13 WIS|15 INT|05

Levi took a quick glance at the fighter, nodding with a small smile to the only one he knew, Xaier. Once he got into the locker room, he took the time to change into his black gi and perform a full set of stretches that ended right as they came to push him out. He glared at the organizers as they shoved him out of the locker room.
"Yes...please, help me to the ring...I don't want to waste any energy walking myself to the ring..."
Sarcasm; The time he had spent with Cereza had clearly rubbed off on him. He had become a little quicker with his wit and he had grown fond of using sarcasm to express various things. He looked around as he made his way into the ring, taking in the cheers and the lights. This was certainly a first for him. As he walked over to his corner, he looked across the ring at his opponent, taking a preliminary evaluation.
"hmm"
His opponent was physically superior, but experience and training counted for more and, minus gross differences in physical ability, were hard to overcome. Only time would tell where he stood in that regard. He responded to Shugo's words by walking to the middle of the ring and taking his stance, left leg forward a bit, knees bent, hands up, open and in front at about neck level. He smiled as he waited for his opponent to make the first move.
"I would worry about myself if I were you. Fights are dangerous and I expect no quarter as I will not be granting any. Now, come. Let's see what you can do."

"Fine. If you insist."
The gi anointed that he was a practitioner of some sort of eastern martial arts. His stance seemed to imply that as well. Open palms at neck level... I wondered what kind of techniques he was going to be using. The open palms... They would be better for deflecting. On top of that... he was waiting for me to make the first move... So that meant he was going to play defensively or counter-offensively. Either wear me out, or counter me through openings when I attacked.
I approached the other boy with my arms held by my side. No fighting stance. Instead, I focused on the way that I walked, conveying an ominous and strong presence with every step. A fighting stance is good for defense and quick offense. But it locks you into a set of motions. I only recently started being trained officially, so this guy probably had the upper hand training wise. I was going to have keep things loose and hopefully catch this guy off guard. Only once I was within range to strike, I put my arms up very quickly mirroring his neck height arm position, only my fists were closed. Hopefully the arcing motion of my arms being raised would draw his attention because my right food would raise itself slightly, shooting out at his lower, left shin quickly. Quickly, I followed it up with another one aimed at his lower, left shin before my foot came back down to the ground. I had to hit weak points, and I had to hit them fast.

No stance…interesting…
Levi understood that the lack of a stance gave him little information and that perhaps that was the point. The element of surprise was an unbeatable weapon when utilized properly, so Levi made sure he remained vigilant as he watched Shugo walk towards him. Levi’s gi and stance did give away some details, but unless you understood his repertoire, the information wasn't terribly helpful.
Levi kept his gaze centered as Shugo came within range and his hands went up. He decided to continue to wait for Shugo to make the first move; His strategy: to probe his opponent for information before committing to anything risky. Just as the hands went up, Shugo’s foot lashed out and struck air, as Levi reactively raised his left leg up to snap a swift kick into the man’s groin. Levi’s body did not need to move much at all, if any, for this attack as his weight distribution and stance set him up for this attack already and as such, there would be very little warning as his attack streaked towards its target.

I missed huh? This guy was better than I thought. Luckily for me, he attacked with the same leg that I was already focused on. I pivoted on my left foot to stand sideways by him. This caused his foot to miss my groin as he came in for the kick. My right arm would swiftly move to wrap around the kid's calf. As my right wrapped around the leg, my left fist would slam down at his thigh, just above his knee. Whether or not the punch hit, I would pivot again, yanking the kid along by the leg. Once I pivoted 180 degrees, I would throw the kid by the leg that he had used to attack me.
"You can stop this anytime you want."

[OOC: Since Ecko isn't officially up I'm doing her commentary as an NPC from this account this ONE time. And I was given permission from Mayhem to do so since she's helping him broadcast everything.] --- Ecko that energetic ball of fun was more than super thrilled that Damien had let her help him broadcast the event. It was like her life! It's what she did, having her own little channel 'Ecko's Fun house!' But enough of that. The girl's eyes were on the prize tonight. She shifted around in the booth super excited about the ongoing's down below. She was the type that moved so much that she had to have the headset on. She watched from the glass with such enthusiasm and glee in her voice speaking to the crowd and to her online audience.
"Ecko here! So is anyone else wondering if the mask down there is hiding a huge mouth of razor sharp shark teeth?! I dread at the thought! And look at that cutie pie! Ryu was always one of my favorite Street Fighters! We got some chit chatter between Shark Boy and Ryu going on here. Oh wait Shark Boy is stalking like a predator in the water that he is! Stalking stalking and for the shins! But it's a miss! IS THAT A CROUCH SHOT!? YES! Our first crouch shot of the night! Oh but our Asian Firecracker Ryu missed! Damn looks like kicking stationary trees wasn't good enough. What is Sharkey up to now?! THIS IS SO EXCITING!"

Not bad...
Levi would never be happy that someone grabbed his kick, but it wasn't unexpected and it helped him size his opponent up. Shugo's speed was a nice boon, but there wasn't a giant difference. Levi would just need to be sure to stay on top of the situation and never get caught in situations where he would need to react as fast as possible.
Focus....
Levi had committed little to the kick given his stance and when his kick was grabbed, his balance stayed intact. The only risk Shugo took by grabbing a short kick like that was that it took time and it put him well within arms reach before he had even grabbed the kick. Levi was ready for what came next. As Shugo completed his rotation and bent his knees to scoop up his leg, Levi made quick short hop forward on his right foot as his left hand snapped out, a sharp punch aimed at the man's right temple. He would follow this with a right hook into Shugo's face and continue the pattern until Shugo let go.

A fist was headed for my head. Seeing as I was already bending over to grab this kid's head, I ducked down a little bit more underneath the fists that were flying where my head used to be. Instead of punching down at this kid's leg, I decided to use the momentum he created from the punches. His body was already pushing forward with the swings that he had thrown, I would slide my free arm, the one that wasn't grabbing a hold of this kid's leg, behind his head and push forward. At the same time, my right foot would shoot out to kick at his standing shin, to attempt to throw him off balance. Hopefully the move would cause the kid to fall forward. If he did begin to fall, I would let go of him and take two steps back, facing down at him still with no stance. I wasn't going to hit a guy when he was down after all.

To be able to avoid and counter in this scenario was certainly impressive and Levi was beginning to enjoy himself as his opponent continued to prove himself. As soon as Levi saw Shugo's arm cross his body and grab the back of his head, he prepared for the sweep. Sure enough, Shugo kicked out his shin as Levi tucked and rolled his head and shoulders, rolling on the mat and onto his feet.
"I guess that balanced out well."
He turned around casually as his eyes rested on his opponent once more, a smile on his face as he gave an approving nod. Levi walked back towards Shugo, stopping just outside of reach before resuming his stance. He quickly stepped forward, as his left arm shot straight out, aiming directly for Shugo's nose. However, this attack was designed to cover what was happening below both as a distraction and partially blocking line of sight. As his punch flew out, his left leg follow directly below as a forward kick to the abdomen, hiding underneath his punch.

The guy approached me and stayed out of my range before resuming his stance. This time he didn't wait for me to attack. He went on the offensive. I wanted to analyze what he had going on a little bit more before I followed up. This guy seemed like he was going to be a tricky fighter. Since I wasn't going to counter or attack back, I didn't see any reason to stay near his hit range. I was going to make him keep on coming to me. He punched me with his left, I pivoted on my left foot, standing sideways again. Lucky for me, I narrowly dodged his kick coming for my abdomen. Quickly I would take two steps back as soon as I pivoted, putting myself just outside of his range.
That punch was a feint... that masked guy had pulled one on me before too like that, throwing his knee up at me. I needed to be more careful with punches. He used the punch to cover his kick. It seemed like he liked kicks at mid range, he used two of them on me so far. Nothing conclusive, but it was a start. I just had to keep breaking down his fighting style a little bit more. One thing was for sure, this kid had good instincts, but I had a feeling that mine were better.

Go ahead, take a good look...
Levi watched as Shugo danced away again, his form turning to face him as he continued to pursue at a steady, even pace. He had a plan in all of this and so far, it was working, but he wouldn't waste all of his energy to execute his plan. He simply walked back into range as he put his stance back up before throwing another kick, this time a combination as he targeted the outside of Shugo's left knee with a low right sweep, bringing his leg back before sending out again, quickly throwing a front kick towards Shugo's abdomen once more

A sweep will be hard to sidestep... I decided to block it. I lifted up my leg blocking his foot with the meat on the side of my calf. The kid decided to use his leg again to kick me. He was using the same limb... That wasn't going to catch me off guard. My leg was already up, so I decided to use it again to block his kick, this time my calf slapped against his leg to push it back when he shot it towards my stomach. Leon taught me that one inadvertently. I guess that guy wasn't all bad. Not the time or place for that though.
Bringing my foot back down, I would take another two steps back, getting his entire frame into my vision. To me... this wasn't just about the tournament. I couldn't lose because I had to apprehend Gabriella and stop Mayhem. I hoped that the constant dodging and blocking would start to get on this guy's nerves at this point. My arms were still at my side, exerting less energy than holding them up in anticipation. I would wear this guy down.

One more...
Levi would persist. He was throwing kicks with some power, but he was saving his energy in the chase. The battle of attrition would wear one of them down eventually, but he would hopefully end the fight before that could happen. His plan required patience He was sure the crowd was bored, but it was good target practice. Levi stepped in again, just as he had the entire fight, throwing a quick kick with his left towards Shugo's right ribcage. This kick was more of a Muay Thai kick in that it had no wind up like a karate kick, it traveled straight to its target, making it a faster, less wasteful kick. He would follow this kick with a turn of his hips to throw a low, straight kick, targeting Shugo's kneecap with the intention of connecting head on to snap the leg in two.

He sent another mid range kick at me. This kid was getting predictable. Even with the slight increase in speed, this one was a simple block especially since he was aiming for a straight shot to my rib cage. I slid my torso my left slightly, allowing his foot to miss and instead get tucked under my right arm. My right arm snaked its way around the leg quickly, and I would yank on it slightly to throw him off balance. If the boy still managed to get the second kick off, I would yank on his leg again, and spin him around before throwing him again.
If the boy didn't bother with the second kick, I would throw a quick hard jab at the kid's right kidney with my left fist. Since my hands were held by my side before, they would be able to travel to the guy's kidney much faster than his own, which were held by his neck according to his stance. While I threw the jab, my foot would slide behind the one that the kid still had on the ground. Yanking my foot towards me, I would attempt to throw his foot out from under him. Letting go of his leg, I would allow the kid to fall to the ground.
