Sakura smiled at Bruce's comment and understood his ideals in fighting and even more understood how much more pain he must have endured to get to where he was now. She went into a defensive stance as Bruce rushed in and kicked, just barely in distance to strike, which Sakura didn't want to take a chance with either. Instead of blocking or simply attacking, she crouched down, seeing the kick fly around along with Bruce's body, which he started spinning, obviously using the momentum for something bigger. Before Bruce was fully turned, Sakura rooted her left palm into the ground, along with her left foot as she pulled back her right foot into her chest, waiting for the right moment. Just as Bruce turned to backfist where Sakura had been, she saw the opening under his arm. She smiled as she followed Bruce's side around, waiting until it was in aligned with her foot.
"You left yourself open!"
Sakura kicked out as hard as possible, aiming for Bruce's side, throwing her whole body into the air which, in turn, placed all the weight of her body into her kicked. Even if she had missed, her right elbow was aimed at Bruce's face, being the real attack behind the kick. Afterwards, Sakura spun forwards and out of the way of Bruce's attacking distance, hoping to stay away from any counterattacks that followed her attack. She spun in position, getting back into a defensive position. By this time, a large crowd had amassed and people were shouting bets and cheers amongst each other.

(Hearing "You left yourself wide open" I smiled. Knowning an attack was coming I exhaled and felt the sheer force of her kick hit my left side. the pain was immense, but i embraced it like I would a lover. As the kick hit I instantly dropped my left arm and wrapped it around her foot to keep her foot attacked to my side. With my right hand while still spinning I grabbed her right thigh with my open hand. Taking the elbow to the face I grunted in pain and kept smiling even as the attack opened up a gash under my left eye.
Continuing the spin I since sakura was in midair there would be no way to stop or brace herself from what was happening due to the difference in strength and size, and the fact that she was in midair from her kick. I would turn to my left and push with my right arm to slam her down very hard onto her back hopefully slamming the air from her lungs and dazing her slightly. I would then as soon as she hit the ground release her leg with both hands and throw a hard right punch for the left side of her stomach hoping that she would be dazed slightly from the slam. I would then shuffle back giving distance to allow her time to get up if she desired it. The whole time a gleam of happiness and enjoyment could be seen from my smile and in my eyes.)

As Sakura's elbow connected with Bruce's face, she felt her body changing directions, suddenly slamming into the ground. Before she could what was happening, Sakura instinctively rolled to the right, making Bruce's hard punch just barely miss her. She stayed lying down on the ground, recovering from the hard fall and then slowly stood up, a bit shaken, but nothing too much. She then smiled as she rushed in, feinting two kicks, then throwing a third kick, which Sakura aimed at Bruce's hip, then let her body fall to the ground, though her palms soften the blow and then heel kicked Bruce's shin while he was still paying attending to the first few blows.

(As she came back at me after getting up from my slam i smiled. This was turning out to be a much better fight then i had expected. As she rushed in an threw her first two kicks I shuffled backwards out of range, even though they were feints I didn't realize that, so it was better to get out of range. As she would have to put her second feint kick back down on the ground even for just a split second I would come forward. As the kick would touch the ground I would launch off my right leg through the air. My left hand would be cocked back as If i was going tot hrow a hard left superman punch. This was apparent to all who watched and probably sakura.
Instead at the last minute in the air I woudl tourque my hips to my left and throw a hard jumping right roundhouse for her left ribs. The timing would be that her kick would hit my left thigh/lower stomach at the timing my kcik would end up hitting her in the ribs if it was succesfuly)

Sakura let her third kick hit Bruce in the side, but at the same time felt her left forearm get hit by a strong kick. Without even looking away, she knew that if she had not been in her TaeKwonDo kicking form, her left forearm would not have been protecting her left ribs, possibly knocking her out right then and there. Sakura smiled as she brought back her foot and rolled circularly on his foot and then using the spinning momentum, backfisting Bruce in the face with her left hand. As it connected or not, she would duck under Bruce's pulled back arm, letting her left hand grab onto his right shoulder, locking his left arm and neck together, making it almost impossible to move. Sakura then put Bruce's back onto her front, kneed his locked legs and then arched her back while turning her body slightly, mixing a wrestling suplex with her aikido throw. As Bruce's face came close to the ground, Sakura let go from the hold, hoping not to hurt him too much and fell onto the ground on her back, her forearms barring Bruce's body from hurting her.
ooc: Feel free to block the whole block and stuff, even during the throw. I said it was almost impossible to get out of. ^^

(As the kick connected my feet touched the ground after she continued to roll down my leg. Smiling as she did so since a spinning backfist was always one of my favorite attacks, I brought my right hand across my face hard with an open palm to connect with the outside of her wrist in a block. Suddenly though she ducked under my pulled back left hand. As she secured her hold I found myself tied up, quite literatly.
I wasn't used to people trying to manhandle me since I was a fairly big person. Thus I had never really found ways to defend against it. Feeling myself lift from the ground I waited for the contact to be made. As she let go when my face came close to the ground I made my body go limp so that I could absorb as much of the blow as possible. Hitting the canvas with a loud Thud sound resounding I layed there for a second. As My world flashed in and out I shook my head and rolled to the side as much as I could distancing myself from sakura.
Knowing that she let go of the hold at the last minute so my face wouldn't meet the canvas as hard I smiled.)
"as much as I am thankful you let go of the hold so that I could soften the blow, next time don't. I only wish you respect my abilities and fight me all out, otherwise how do you expect to improve? Now, i will show you the proper respect you deserve sakura, I will fight with all of my resolve"
(I said as my head began to clear. Taking a deep breath I bowed to her in respect. I then brought my hands up in another traditional boxing stance. Motioning for her to come at me I kept breathing slow and methodically)
ooc: not sure if i read ur hold right but i think i did pm me if there any problems

Sakura nodded as she under stood Bruce's request and also bowed.
"I'll be sure to give it all I have too now."
Sakura smiled as she ran in towards Bruce without any notice of what type of attack she would use on him and once he was a yards away from him, jumped into the air and pulled up her right knee towards Bruce, hoping to knee him in the stomach or chest. Sakura also kept her right forearm in front, throwing her right elbow for Bruce's jaw, her left arm blocking her left side of the body.
As her elbowing either connected or passed, she would spin her body counter-clockwise, her right knee being the axis of rotation, opening her left leg and as it came closer to the back of Bruce's neck, she pulled her right knee out from its position, pushed off of Bruce with her knee and then rooted her foot to the ground as she pushed down with all her weight onto Bruce's neck with her right heel, hoping that the shots had unbalanced him just slightly enough to allow her to easily knock him down onto the mat with ease.
Afterwards, Sakura brought up her right leg again, lifting it over her head and then dropping it down in front of her as she also let her legs fold in, making her body drop as well. This allowed her axe kick to hit Bruce's back with a more powerful force, multiplying the "springing" of the muscles with Sakura's body weight and gravity. Sakura rolled backwards, kneeling far enough from Bruce so that he couldn't pull off any ground attacks without her at least noticing.

(As Sakura rushed at me I continued to take deep slow controlled breaths. As she neared a couple of yards away from me and jumped in the air I did nothing. Since she had jumped from a couple of yards away from me, it wasn't that hard to see she was going for a flying knee. It also gave me a couple of seconds time to do something before she reached me.
Since she was flying at me in the air I knew there wasn't really a way for her to dodge this attack. Pulling my right knee up to my chest as I stood there I threw a hard push kick at her oncoming chest. The momentum of he rbodyweight coming towards me and my leg pushing forward with all its strength wouldn't be devestating but it would hurt quite a bit.
When I told sakura I was going tof ight all out, i meant it, i only hoped she could keep up with me)

Sakura impacted with Bruce's foot, feeling her chest hurt and fell to the floor. She exhaled and then kicked her right heel out, hoping to hit Bruce's ankle, either unbalancing him or knocking him down, Sakura then turned her body so her left leg was above her right and kicked upwards towards Bruce's chest while pushing her body forwards, hoping to extend her low attack. She then stood a walke backwards keeping her distance from Bruce.

(As my foot impacted with sakuras chest I brought it back instantly to the stand in the same stance I was in before. As she shot out her heel for an attack at my ankle, I lifted my foot up off the ground causing her to miss. This in turn caused me to miss her other foot shooting upwards towards my chest. Seeing it at the last moment I exhaled and clenched my fist to brace myself. As the kick hit I let out a)
"HAAAAAA"
(Fairly loud. The blow still hurt, but It would have hurt my chest a lot more if I hadn't tried to brace myself for it. As she backed up giving us distance between each other I motioned for her to come at me again, before I brought my hands back up in the traditional boxing stance)
