Training a Newbie (Alex)

[Alex]

OOC: *bangs head against keyboard and bows multiple times* I'm sorry! But it's the only way I could rush it, and I modified my post so I'm no longer controlling your character, *sigh* If I had my Internet, I wouldn't have to rush. Sorry my post is so short, but I have very little to work with.

"Me, against you?! I'd never win...BUT, since you asked nicely, I guess I can come to enjoy a one on one spar. " " Heh, don't worry, I'm just going to test how well you know the techniques, think of this as your...final exam before graduation." he said, as he took his stance, facing her. "Ready when you are!" "Heh, alright then." he replied, circling around the ring, keeping his eye on her, moving lightly on his feet, he gradually moved closer and closer to her, until he was in range, then he struck. He launched a front kick right at her, and then flowed into a Crescent Kick.

" Reira, time to see if this training paid off! Hit me with everything you got!" he shouted, strafing around the ring, keeping his eyes glued on his student. What were her chances of defeating him? Slim to none maybe, but if she could land even one hit on him, he knew it was worth it. " Don't worry about hurting me, just strike!" He wasn't going to go easy on her, in a real fight, the opponent wouldn't go easy on you right?

So why should he? He was not the type to give a confidence booster to someone, only to have that person end up losing and worse, injured badly just because they won one fight. No, he would not let her have an easy win. Yes, she learned the basics, but the basics were enough to protect her adequately from his strikes. She had the knowledge, now it was time to show what she had learned. And show she would.

(ooc: Aww don't hit yourself over it haha it's not a big deal And I really hope you get your internet back! It must suck not having it, I'd die without mine)

"A final exam hey," she muttered with a small grin. Usually the mere sound of the word exam made her cringe. Oh how she hated final exams, but this by far, would be the best exam she would take. Alex began to circle around the ring. Reira, followed suit, her feet constantly moving and her arms poised, ready to go. She was waiting for Alex to make the first move, and that he did. As soon as he was in range of her, he striked with a powerful front kick.

Now, she had no real training in how to block moves, but her reflexes were rather quick. Alex's leg missed her head by a few mere inches. She had ducked not a moment too soon. Now it was Reira's turn to retaliate. Taking the opportunity, Reira performed a flying jump kick.

To her dismay, her kick was off, but close. Jump kicks were hard to calculate, especially when you have a constantly moving target. A very big difference compared to the stationary dummy. In her moment of disappointment, Alex assaulted her with another kick. The Crescent Kick. The attack hit her directly on her side, causing her to faulter and waver to her right. "Nice one.."

She recovered quickly ignoring the pain. With a burst of speed, Reira ran in a swerve, coming at Alex from his side. Still in motion, Reira swung her body into a roundhouse kick. Her leg swung in a circular motion, then quickly snapped, hoping to hit him with the front of her foot.

I'm in way over my head! I'm never going to beat him, but I sure as hell am going to try! Even if I just get one hit on him..just one..I'd be satisfied.

(ooc: Wow..you know what...I think this is my very first fight thread..I hope I'd doing okay haha :S)

OOC: Yeah, having no Internet sucks...ass. But I think I got it back today, but I'm not at home right now, so I don't know, but we'll see. Heh, you're doing fine for your first fight thread, though it's not official lol.

His front kick missed Reira's head by a few inches, her reflexes were excellent. She then countered with a flying jump kick, but her kick was off, he managed to dodge it just by moving to his right. He then launched a crescent kick, which struck her on her side, making her faulter and waver. "Nice one.." "Heh, not so bad yourself." he replied, strafing around again. She then recovered, and with a burst of speed, ran in a swerve, coming towards him from the side.

She then swung her body in a circular motion, and launched into a roundhouse kick. " Heh, I don't think so." he muttered, easily catching the kick with his left hand. He then launched his own roundhouse kick, Reira would have a bit of trouble blocking, mainly because, one; one of her legs was caught in his hand. Two, her balance would be off-center, and she may topple over if he released her without any warning. Three, she could only use her hands to block, if Alex aimed high, but he didn't, he aimed at her side, more or less the same place he had hit before, except this time, it was on the opposite side.

Before his kick connected, he released her leg, sending her flying backwards, and his kick would be dead on, though if she managed to recover quickly, well, he'd be very surprised, but he would take it in stride, he would just back up and begin to circle again, but this time, he launched a Hook Kick.

I don't want to go easy on Reira, but I don't want to injure her as well! If she gets one hit, justo ne hit, then it would be worth it.
