Division 1 [Fight 2] - Heizen vs Sarai

[8,442 PL]

Heizen was quite unsure how he had managed to beat that Saiyan in the last round, but he was confident that his second fight would prove to be entertaining as well. He was appalled by the intense strength of the ones who had fought before him, as he began to realize just how insignificant he truly was in this Universe. This time he did not meditate before his fight but rather he had been watching. He had seen his opponent's fight, and she was a fierce warrior indeed. She had barely managed to overcome that other fighter, the kid, but she had demonstrated proficient battle prowess nonetheless. The crowd seemed impressed with her. They were less so with the Demon. His appearance spooked many, while others treated him like some domesticated animal. "And so the cycle continues... may the bells ring accompanied by glorious combat," he thought to himself rather elegantly. 

The Demon made a slow stroll toward the square stone tiles of the arena floor, his head turning to his sides as he scanned the many faces of the arena once more. His face was bare of expression as his torso was bare of clothing. The tournament forbade headwear and so he had left his armor in safekeeping. His built brown-skinned body lay bare for the entire stadium save for the yellow shorts to accommodate the Earthling's customs of modesty. His feet soon met the steps rising to the arena with grace. He made eye contact with his opponent, his gaze uncaring as he prepped himself internally for combat. He said nothing at first, eventually building up toward an opening remark, "It would seem you humans enjoy pitting me against females," he quipped. His rather blank expression had now transitioned into a wide grin, as he cut the tension of the encounter.


He was ready whenever they were. 

WC: 310 (I promise it'll be better next round. First posts are usually hardest XD) 

Heizen eyed his opponent's rather boisterous roar at his simple comment. It seems he hath triggered the poor girl as she called out her heritage to the crowd. Though Heizen himself could not think. Had he heard of the Angeleans? "How strange... perhaps she's of a different race like that other one. I could have sworn she was a human...though I suppose people confuse me for some other creature on this planet too... her need to declare is not lost on me," he thought practically to himself. One's pride in one's heritage was welcomed, though he hadn't been expecting such a reply when he made the comment.

The Demon's grin faded into a more relaxed smile. "Fair Enough," was all he had to say. He saw no need to press the issue; merely accepting it as he made his stance. Raising his arms bent up to the level of his upper torso as he tightened his hands together into fists. The left leg was faced forward with the right one back, and his knees were lightly bent to afford him good balance. He was ready at any moment for them, his red eyes sparkling with anticipation. He was kind of excited for this now. The announcer smiled at them, looking at both for any last words before she began the match.

The crowd grew restless as they awaited the next match between two, and so the announcer finally called it.  Their time had come, and so it began with a intense start! The Demon had been at the ready, but even so he had barely seen the incoming barrage in time. Sarai was quick. Lifting up his arms while backing away in a retreat- he blocked the incoming barrage of punches with his forearms skillfully as he absorbed the incoming impacts of the blows. Each one was light and yet chipped away at the Demon's fortitude, for she was quick and powerful for a girl so tiny! Given her appearance the Demon could not have guessed that she would be this powerful. Though it would not deal much damage the blows were quite good. Had he not blocked them it would surely have been worse. She followed up with a straight-ward kick, but the Jackal latched onto the leg with both arms and negated most of the impact once again, as his feet touched the edge of the arena. He grinned.

"My turn," was all he said while still holding her leg with the right arm. Heizen pulled on the leg in an attempt to draw her in close. Taking advantage of his reach the Demon attempted a solid hook punch with his opposite hand to her face. If it connected it would send the girl flying!

The Jackal had fought many fights in his short life in this realm and the next. Ever since he was born and for as long as he could remember actually. Enslavement of Malokai had always made fighting a chore, a task to be carried out. The murder of his enemies to save himself from execution or torture. And when he freed himself it was a necessity either for his own protection or to maintain his status in the Demon Hierarchy. Fighting for so long, Heizen had never really gotten a chance to revel in the joy of it. This was the first day in a long while, and it had happened twice! The Jackal Demon couldn't help but have that goofy, intimidating grin of his. And it seemed his opponent shared the sentiment. Not like the attitude of that Saiyan from before. "I like you mortal...," he thought to himself with that same giddy grin as she got back on her feet from the force of his attack. He was surprised she didn't follow up with a upward kick to the head or turn her body to follow up with a kick to the side. He supposed she was just having fun. Perhaps she was taking him seriously yet.

He knew she was a little stronger than he was (at least at this level), but nonetheless the fight would prove to be a close contest. And he would enjoy it for as long as he could. These rules be damned. This was the first time he had actual fun that he could remember. The Demon Warrior prepared himself as the girl came looking for an easy win. It seemed she was trying her best to already knock him out of the ring, but he wasn't going to let himself be beaten so easily. At the last possible moment of her approach- the Jackal leapt over Sarai; cartwheeling in the air to maneuver over to the middle of the ring. Landing on his feet- the Demon reestablished his sights and position toward Sarai and let out a single hand. Quickly discharging his energy - Heizen fired a small but efficient dark-blue energy wave at the Angelean who no doubt would be approaching right after him. He took advantage of the time it would take her to turn around and approach him (especially with the panic of being so close to the edge of the ring when she would realize). The blast would be enough to knock her out of the ring if she let it hit, but she was fast enough to avoid it. Its main function was to lay her off her vicious offensive. 

She was surely a feisty firecracker after all. Whatever Angeleans were, he wondered if they were all this entertaining.

[Hmph]
Heizen had successfully predicted her actions. She had been pretty direct throughout the fight so far which led him to believe her skill as a fighter relied more on her brute strength than her tactics. There of course was nothing wrong with a simple fighter, but sometimes it left them vulnerable to under-handed tactics. Thankfully for her - Heizen was no such opponent. He saw no reason to do such things in a fight with no real stakes other than some lame monetary prize. Heizen smiled as she charged at him - the blue wave blasting into her (or so he thought). The energy wave went right past as she evaded the attack at the last second, instead traveling toward the brick wall - causing it to crumble apart from the force of the blast. She was definitely fast, and much to his surprise she appeared on his right side and approaching him with a fist. "Shit... don't think I have time to defend!" he thought as the fist collided hard into his face. The force of the harsh impact forced him back closer to the edge of the ring but not enough to be in danger of falling out; The Demon managing to stop himself via floating. She really did hit hard. Floating a few inches off the ground and soaring- Heizen looked at the Angelean with a rather serious, intensive gaze. His face was a little red from the harsh impact of her attack - if he was a human she might have given him a black eye with that punch. Thankfully as a Demon he was a little more resilient than that. 



"You are quite strong. You do your kind proud," he complimented with a wide grin. "Now that we both know where we stand-the warm-up's over. Let us commence." Now that he had a real gauge of his power as she had of his - they both could start fighting seriously now. After he had said his peace, that same dark blue aura would begin to illuminate across the Demon's entire body in a shimmering glow. Heizen rushed at the girl flying at top speed, a dark blue streak of light resonating from his movements, as he went for a barrage of jabs with his left fist following the right - aiming for various spots of her body including her stomach, chest, ribs, etc. etc. in an all out assault. If he could just land a few of these punches and wear her down, then he could try and go for a more serious attack and show her true pain. She would be sore by the end of this... That he would guarantee himself. And they still had more power to show he was sure.

This would probably be the highlight of his day.

Heizen was a bit amazed at the light show. Did she just power-up? Well that was concerning. He had been struggling with her already this far. "Charming, Beautiful, and Powerful? Seems like someone's got the full package going for them," he thought to himself with a chuckle. Honestly he had to be careful now. He was getting a little carried away with this fight. He rushed in despite fearing what would happen and as a result he began to notice the truth extent of her powers. 

The crowd was supremely entertained by the back and forth between the opponents. Given the light show, the high intense fighting, and all of the banter between the two: this fight was indeed thoroughly enjoyable for them. Though a majority of the crowd seemed to be in favor of the girl (though the Demon could hardly blame them; part of HIM wanted her to win) there were also those rooting for the Demon. With each punch the Demon fond himself a little more worried. This hadn't been so difficult before. She clearly was much stronger now, and his attacks clearly weren't doing any damage as she absorbed them blow for blow. He could not hear the crowd's loud, boisterous cheering as he desperately flailed at the small, built woman. Only that of the rapidly beating heart in his chest as he found himself overwhelmed by this "Angelean" girl so. It was both endearing and infuriating at the same time. He didn't like to lose.

 Finally with the last punch being caught so easily - he realized he was in trouble as he eyes widened from the shock. She was going to hit him. Just barely in time Heizen released a burst of his ki at once as he let out a loud shout. With that burst of ki was a force repelling the Angelean away from him. If it hit she would find herself skidding across the floor of the arena towards the other side of it (though not that close to the edge). It was time to stop messing around and fight seriously too. He didn't want to lose the match just yet. Following the attack Heizen himself began to power up, though his ki changed from that dark blue to a black. "Ya know... when I said the warm-up was over... I wasn't aware that meant we were already releasing our full power," he said with a toothy smirk. "This time I won't be playing around. Now that I'm up to speed... let's try that again." he said as he bent a single finger towards him as a sign to come attack him. But she might not like what he had in store for her next...

The Jackal Demon was more than amused with the Angelean. He was glad to have fought this battle. His shockwave had given him just enough power to bounce her back (even managing to barely damage her). She had resisted about as well as he had expected, and when he powered up she didn't seem the least bit intimidated by him. Her grace, her thrill in fighting excited him in a way he wasn't quite used too. He found himself wanting more. He wasn't sure if he could contain his power in this fight. He stood there waiting for her to accept his challenge and rush at him - eagerly awaiting a chance to test his skills. But after a few moments... he learned it wouldn't be that way at all.

Heizen raised an eyebrow as the white-haired Angelean refused to come charge at him. He shrugged as he pointed a finger at him, though he was quite frankly a little disappointed with her for not coming head on. "Guess it's up to me to start," he thought to himself. He didn't realize she was charging her energy - and so he simply discharged from his palm another one of his signature Hellzone Waves. The dark blue energy wave would rush at Sarai much faster than it had the last time he had used the technique. What Heizen didn't realize was his passive usage of the Makyo Star's power to enhance the technique beyond it's normal parameters. He had gotten a little too excited to fight Sarai and as a result overexerted himself and utilized more power than he would normally have. The technique would rush at Sarai with overwhelming force hoping to swallow her whole. "Shit! Too much!" he thought to himself.

He could only hope it didn't hurt her too bad.
