A Visit..[Closed]

[daiyu]

Writhing in love you swear
what you feel is real
Bending your every illusion
You fake it all too well
Numbing the mind rest inside
that hate left unspoken
Tasting the truth it's shy
afraid to be broken

Night had fallen around the city of San Francisco and where they could the stars twinkled brightly in the sky, the moon hanging in the sky shining it's soft light down upon the city. It was a beautiful sight to behold as the tall city-scape buildings in the distance sparkled with their own unnatural lights, blinding out those of the stars.

It was a sight she had grown acustom to and yet she still often longed to see a sky filled with stars once more, but alas, the further into the city you go, the less and less you see until there is just simply no more and the sky becomes a big lonely void. In the less dense areas however, stars can still be seen twinkling bravely against the harsh night sky.

She lingered, wearing a nice dress with the slightest hint of make-up upon her face and what little nails she did have now bore a nice sort of plum shade of nail polish which was just down right odd for Daiyu. Her lips had upon them a nice sheen of gloss, strawberry flavored of course and her hair was done up neatly into two pigtails.

And it's humbling
This pain you feel inside
And it's stuttering
These words that I must try

Where was she this strange night? Why she was at the door to the apartment which belonged to Ryomei, not out of complete and total hate or spite, but out of some strange sensation she couldn't entirely explain fully. She had gone to great things to find out just where exactly it was that Ryomei lived and then finally gathered it up within her self to show up there, a hand reaching out slowly to knock upon the door.

Three taps was all she made, her hand falling back to her side as she stood in wait. Would the door open? Would Ryomei be there? Would she attempt to kill Ryomei once the door opened? Who knew for sure what the crazy little Chinese girl would attempt to do, but one thing was for sure, she wasn't exactly dressed for combat. It was an awkward silence, her hands fidgeting slightly at her side as bits and pieces to a song she had heard on the radio popped in and out of her mind which she had heard from another apartment on her way here, and so she waited, staring at the door to the apartment, one hand fidgeting at her side.

[Kerry]

Oblivious to the happenings outside of her apartment, unknowing of her late night arrival at first Ryomei had been just getting ready for bed... Well, to lay in bed would be more precise.
With covers over her simple mattress like bed that lay on the floor by itself, a propped up box on which stood a small television in front of it she lay there sitting up against the wall to which played header of her bed with a box of take out on her lap with a fork in hand.
Far from expecting visitors she was barely dressed at all, wearing nothing but a pair of pink and white panties with hello kitty like designs on them and a long shirt with the same kind of designs adorning its otherwise plain white fabric, the same kind of shirt she would always wear to bed. Her deep red hair however set like it would always be as the glorious curls rest untarnished against her shoulders as she sat there watching television only to occasionally lift the fork to her mouth taking in the food it bore with a soft "ahh" after tasting the warm flavour of a pot of ramen left over from the night before.

A few moments passed and she finished her meal, simply placing the pot down on the floor beside her mattress with a slight sigh and slouching back against the bland white wall to sit and watch the television now more intently, her right hand reaching steadily for the remote she would 'flick' across channels to see if there were anything interesting to watch that might catch her eye on this late evening.
"Same old, same old" she would groan to herself as the news came on, reviewing the world issues of today, the gang troubles of today, the troubled youth and etc.
Lifting her hand once more to aim the remote control towards the television this time in order to turn it off for the night Ryomei would be interrupted by the slightest of somewhat shy knocks at the door. A slight smirk would run across her face as she lowered the remote and placed it on the ground beside her bed and with a kick and swing of her arm pry the covers from her body to reveal her bare, soft and firm legs as she would proceed to get up, muttering softly under her breath as if to contemplate who of all people could be knocking at her door this late at night. It wouldn't be anyone from school, she didn't really have any friends or involvements there and its unlikely to be the take out guy from yesterday as she was sure she had given him the right money for the meal, though lately working off her own back living had become a little harder than before when her allowance was in place and her apartment was far from the ritz as it is.
If not anyone from school, and not the take away guy then who could possibly be knocking at the door? The simple thought running through her mind as she walked out towards her door giving a yawning stretch as her arms reached out to the sides, her mouth opening wide as she yawned.
"Unless...urgh, it better not be another guy looking for a date... It's happened before... Man, if its that same guy I'm gunna kick his ass I swear it" she would mutter as she finally came to approach the door, a quiet sigh as her hand would grasp the brass handle and with a twist and a click as her other hand unlatched the door she would do an uncaring swing of the door back on itself open it wide up and lean into the doorway with her elbow on the frame and her head partly resting upon her hand.
"Alright, what do you want... if you wan't a date I'm not interested ok so make this good..." She would pause briefly as she had finally stopped rolling her eyes and took a moment to look at who actually was standing there... So much for assumptions it would seem. Her line of sight straight out would seem to land upon the top of the girls head, her hair to be more precise as to show a definite height difference of a few inches. Her eyes would slowly scale down with a slight look of confusion, clearly not remembering the girl from all that time ago and look quite unknowingly at her.
"Oh... well... er, how can I help you then? I.. er, thought you were someone else a minute" She would quickly correct herself as if to not seem quite so rude as she had intended on being if it had in fact been a guy wanting a date, or a guy in general, truth be told she didn't care if it had been a guy asking for a date or not, its always funny to see the reaction on there faces and is generally a good deterrent to any pestering neighbours that think your 'hawt'.

[daiyu]

"Uhm...Is this Ryomei's apartment..?"

It was better to simply ask rather then to stand there dumbfounded as you attempted to piece together bits and pieces of facial structure that matched a childhood memory, it was also a hell of alot easier that way. Granted, Daiyu had been slightly caught off guard about the sudden and rather rude opening of the door and had she not had less then five seconds to react she might have run off bawling at the mean comments.

But in retrospect, that would have just been plain awkward, it wasn't like this strange girl who cheated her out of victory so many years ago was psychic as well...right? So instead Daiyu stood there, head inclined to the side and her eyes fixated more firmly on the woman who answered the door a slight gulping noise coming from her as her eyes traced over every outline.

Boy oh boy did Ryomei grow up, and in a good way too. If she was uncertain about what she'd felt before all thoughts and doubts had been cleaned away, she really really wanted to be close to that girl.....But then the issue of pride arose and a tooth found it's self sunk into her bottom lip, suppressing the faintest of growls as the urge to simply tackle her and make her feel pain boiled up inside of her.

What a confused and twisting ocean of emotion that Daiyu was, from one extreme to the next she bounced and bounced and bounced until finally she found a nice comfortable middle...with her eyes completely and obviously focused on the red-head's firm thighs............awkward......On the other hand, there was nothing really normal about this little late night visit.

[Kerry]

"Uhm...Is this Ryomei's apartment..?"
Standing there still a little confused as to the question, it wasn't like you would just turn up at someone's apartment this late at night asking if it was there apartment or not, or maybe you would? As she looked at the girl she could tell she was somewhat... nervous? embarrassed? The girls eyes were fidgety and quite clearly trying to make her out to see if she was the person she was after? Well, clearly she was or she wouldn't have used her name but thinking to herself did she know this person at all?
A moment of awkward silence had passed and finally falling out of her thought like state Ryomei would give a slight wave of her hand as she chuckled lightly, "Um.. yeah your talking to her... Wow, no ones used that name in ages, maybe you should just call me Kerry hmm... So... Do I know you?" she would reply, trying to make this girl out for who she was, her body seemed firm from what she could see of it, firm, fit and toned, she was likely a fighter of some type but yet she appeared soft as well. So many faces in her life time it would be hard to remember someone if they were from too long ago and the girl appeared Asian which meant she could have been any time from since she was born.
Yet there was a small hint of significance about this person, there face wasn't like that of other peoples there was something there, a memory that stood outstanding like an off balance book upon a shelf. Leaning forward, not entirely at full awake'ness she would eye the girl closely, noticing her eyes were looking downwards and raising her finger she would place it upon the girls head and adding a little amount of pressure force the girls gaze to rise to her face as to get a straight look to her eyes.
"Hmm... I'm not sure I remember you... but if you remember me I guess I must have known you at some point... Well it'd be rude to leave you here on my door step so... Would you like to come in?" she would offer openly, her mind steadily putting the memories of this person together like a jigsaw puzzle searching through her life to find the correct pieces to put together, easier said than done but clearly she had made the effort to come all the way to her apartment to see her so she may as well invite her in. Retracting her fingertip from the girls forehead she would give a slight yawn and an awkward stretch as she turned and walked inside, facing the rear of her hello kitty panties at the girl as she walked away, "If I'd known I was having a visitor I'd have put some clothes on... n'ignore the mess... Oh, and close the door on your way in" she would remark as she disappeared into the kitchen area of her apartment disappearing eventually from site as the sound of a kettle being put on would sound and the light clinkering of cups.
"So um... Make yourself at home. Want some Tea?" she would say, following up shortly after with an offering of tea, it was customary to offer a guest a drink, simple etiquette more than anything that and she probably needed the caffeine as much as she did this late in the night.

[daiyu]

Stepping into the apartment she was quick to close it, her cheeks flushed red when she had been busted staring and almost half inviting she found a place for her self to sit down at, a strand of hair being curiously twirled around her hair.

It was an awkward moment, she clearly wasn't remembered and now she was in Ryomei's apartment and couldn't think of anything to say. She just remained there, sitting quietly as her finger twirled her hair around in a steady circle the sound of the kettle catching her ears as she just blinked and nodded softly.

"Oh yes please." She replied, with one slight problem, she had responded to the question in Chinese...and didn't even realize she had done it. Without the knowledge that Ryomei probably had no idea what she had just said Daiyu went right on with conversation, deciding to inform Ryomei of just how exactly they knew each other was going to be far from an easy task, afterall, it meant Daiyu sucking it up and saying outloud that she had been the one that Ryomei had beaten.

"We met...a long time ago...At the Junior Internationals..." This time her voice was in near perfect enligsh even as her body slackened and relaxed a bit, well, that wasn't so hard and she didn't have to flat out say that Ryomei had beaten her and that ever since that day forth Daiyu was determined to find Ryomei again.

[Kerry]

As the girl would respond in chinese she would give a slight smirk to herself as she remained out in the kitchen, simply calling out to the girl that had moved into the other room, "I'll take that as a yes... Its English tea so you know..." she would add as she poured the hot water into the cups, watching the triangular tea bags brew within the cup before steadily adding milk.

Then the girl proceeded to talk as Ryomei continued to finish making the tea, her words reaching her ears suddenly and causing her to slowly stop stirring as her mind played through the potential people that this girl could be.
"We met...a long time ago...At the Junior Internationals..."
She had met a lot of people in that tournament, beat them all and made alot of enemies. Now she was feeling slightly cautious as she compared the image of the girl she answered at the front door with those from that tournament, of course there was one, that one specific that came to mind more than any other.
A slight mumble would likely be heard from the kitchen as Ryomei spoke to herself slowly, "Daiyu..."
Now at this point she would have become tense, getting a late night visit from someone who swore they would beat her back then at the tournament, but the image of the girl that knocked on her door neither looked like a threatening one nor one dressed to fight. With a slight slouch she relaxed her shoulders, removing the tea bags from the cups and slowly leaving the kitchen to bring them out and hand one to Daiyu silently before sitting down herself.

Placing her cup down upon a table with a light tap on the wood she gave a curious glance to the girl again, looking at her intequingly as she crossed her legs, her firm thighs blocking the hello kitty design from view as they sat over each other, one elbow on the chair as her hand rested against her face, half at a turn and with a cup of tea in the other hand as she looked at the girl for a moment saying nothing.
"I see... Well now, I guess I do remember you Daiyu. Its kind of hard to remember a childhood face when there no longer a child" she would explain, her eyes slowly examining Daiyu, her hint of make up, glossed lips, her much more full hair style than back at the tournament and her clothes.
"So... what brings you here anyway? I didn't think you were even from this country let alone state" she would continue, a minor observation and means to get what the girl was really here for, in her mind though she had a feeling it would just be to fight, a somewhat disappointed feeling if that were to be the only reason she would come all this way to find her.
As she were to wait for Daiyu's reply she would take the time to examine the girl, her hazel eyes scanning the girl, starting with her face moving down her form as she sat openly in view upon a simple chair, it seemed that Ryomei had been far from the only one to have 'really' grown up.

[daiyu]

Taking the cup of tea a slightly weird smile had crossed across her face, but only for a moment, as the tea was raised to her mouth and a slow sip taken from it her body shifting around in it's seat in an attempt to get more comfortable and adjust her skirt which had been slowly riding upward on her tanned flesh without using a hand.

Satisfied that she had done all she could do she just sat there simply, sipping at her tea and staring forward at Ryomei's face. She looked all better then she had when they were children that was for sure and she could only imagine what was going through Ryomei's mind, she was surprised to be honest that the girl hadn't come out and flung a knife at her as soon as she realized who she was.

But it seemed as if, for the moment, things would be peaceful as she lowered the glass of tea from her lips. The English stuff tasted alot different then what she had been used to but it wasn't really all that bad either as her tongue poked out casually and licked the tea from her lips.

"My parents immigrated to the United States...I live with my cousin out here though..." Of course Daiyu left out the part where the only reason that she lived out here was because Ryomei did, that would have made her look creepy and probably prompt Ryomei to throw her out of the apartment which ultimately would have led to a conflict as Daiyu would have resisted...like she always does...about anything.

Noticing that Ryomei's eyes had been slowly running along her body much in the fashion that Daiyu had done before she held back a giggle as her body shifted around slightly more, the outfit squeezing tighter to her body with that movement and not leaving a whole lot to the imagination as the slightly more sexy then normal Chinese styled dress clung to her body.

"So...How have you been...?" She would ask, anything to stop another awkward silence from forming as the faintest hint of pink blush had spread across the normally tanned cheeks her brown eyes focused dead ahead upon Ryomei.

[Kerry]

"hmph" she would chuckle softly as the question was relayed back to her, her body shrugging slightly as her eyes circled around slowly to look up at the ceiling and around the inner walls of her apartment in the dimly lit light of the rooms.
"I'm doing fine I guess... Traded in an eight room house with my parents in Florida for this apartment, working of course to pay the rent without there help... I'd say everything fine, albeit far from what I'm used too, ehe... I've been here a few years now though I guess, just needed to get away from England too mu... Why am I telling you this again? eheh, sorry I'm rambling." She would add as she paused her talk, not about to give the poor girl a life story that's enough of a combat style to bring down an entire army. Instead she simply raised the tea cup to her mouth and took another deep sip of the warm fluid, sighing softly as its warm liquid ran down her throat, the soft sensation of the brewed water and creamy complexion of milk within it appeasing her thirst as well as providing a small amount of that ever essential caffeine.

There it was again, that inevitable awkward silence as questions were answered and sentences halted Ryomei would release her grip on her cup and simply proceed to stand up, pushing up onto her tip toes as she reached an upright position she would just stretch her entire body, her arms reaching widely out to the sides and continue on to walk passed the girl, pausing at the entrance to her bedroom before looking back at her a moment.
"Feel like going for a walk?" she would ask, posing the question politely as she would then move into her room, assuming the answer to be a yes as to get changed for it. Being inside such a small room was awkward and empty and the surrounding walls Ryomei suspected were perhaps suppressing some of the inate feelings and things that may not be appropriate to make apparent inside another persons house, hopefully a walk would remove the feeling of a 'must be' politeness so that the true reason as to why Daiyu might have suddenly appeared at her apartment this night may be revealed.

[daiyu]

Nodding her head slowly to the explanation of things Daiyu didn't really have much to say, it wasn't anything important to her about how or why Ryomei had gotten out here, only that she was out here, and that was all that mattered. Things had changed since they were kids, that was for sure, and the air was sort of awkward around them as Daiyu was waging a minor battle between her self on whether she wanted to jump up and hug the redhead or jump up and attempt to maul her, teenage hormones, afterall, were very trick things to be dealing with.

Was it possible to love and hate someone at the same time? Or perhaps it was just lust or jealousy who knew what it was but her head perked up from the now empty tea cup when she watched Ryomei stretch her entire body out, the t-shirt riding up and exposing the Hello Kitty fabric.

Daiyu giggled, it was cute in a strange sort of way though her eyes quickly looked away from the girl "Uhm..Sure..." She responded in time to the question about taking a walk, setting her cup of tea down.

[Kerry]

A few moments would pass and from the room a few noises of clothes being tossed to the ground and some being removed from hangers, finally Ryomei would emerge from within the room dressed in a simple setup. Some basic white and blue trainer like shoes, tight denim jeans with a slight flare at the bottom of the legs, a half hanging belt not entirely around her hips a simple white tank top with the straps of her bra showing up a white line set over her shoulders.
Giving a slight shrug and a stretch of her right arm she would move to walk past Daiyu, still seated and reach for the top of one of the chairs behind her and pick up a dark blue like that on her shoes, colored hooded jumper. Now usually she would wear a skirt however she unfortunately did feel the cold weather and didn't exactly feel like wearing a short skirt during the night even if the climate was warmer than England's.
Lifting it up the hooded jumper to put on herself, her tank top would raise slowly revealing the lower part of her stomach, of course its fabric not reaching as far as the large shirt, but quickly enough the hooded jumper would be pulled down, its large mass covering her excessively with its baggy complexion hanging from her slender frame and reducing its noticeably to nothing but her legs.

"Alright then, lets get a move on then" she would remark as she stepped up to the door, undoing it easily and holding it open and out to the side for Daiyu as she waited for the girl her eyes would be drawn to her appearance once again, that firmly fitting yet not entirely covering Chinese dress as appealing as it was, would no doubt be cold and as nice as it fitted her figure it would be unfair to expect her to walk around town late at night with it on. A delayed moment before she would reach for behind the door, to get yet another hooded jumper like thing from a hook, having had to pull her eyes reluctantly from the girls firm and exposed thighs to have a jumper ready for her. The same as her own though black with a more Gothic design on it would be ready to be handed to Daiyu as she came to the door and judging by the size differences as the jumper would swamp Ryomei it would likely easily come down to the girls knees. Shame for the view to be lost to her thighs but it would be the more appropriate thing for the late night breeze.

[daiyu]

Not wanting to be rude Daiyu reached out and took the hoodie and placed it around her body, blinking as the fabric dropped low on her and she giggled a bit before just sighing and shaking her head. Truthfully she didn't think that it was really that cold outside, infact, she was quite used to the weather and found the nice ocean breeze to be rather pleasant but she could imagine how some people did not appreciate it.

Shrugging slightly she gave a soft nod once the jumper was adjusted upon her and she moved slowly out the door and into the night once more taking a deep breath of the air before sighing it out her head tilting and looking back over her shoulder, almost as if she was making sure that she hadn't just been tricked out and that any minute now that the door would slam closed and lock upon her.

"Uhm..Thank you." She called back into the door, realizing she probably should have said it sooner instead of just walking outside while wearing the girls clothing, how rude of her.

[Kerry]

"Heh... Your welcome" she would say simply as she closed the door behind her on the way out, locking it firmly before beginning to walk down the various levels of stairs, her head turning back to check that the girl had followed her as well as not taking this time on the stairway to start anything in the way of fighting, after all she could already tell the girl had 'that' burning inside of her.
Finally they would make it to the bottom of the stair set and with the opening of that final doorway find themselves out in the cool night air. In silence Ryomei would walk slowly, looking at the night scenery of the place, eyeing the buildings, the late night lurkers of the area but her main gaze dropping to the side every now and then to look back at Daiyu. Finally even after only a few moments of walking they would arrive at a near by park, empty of course and featuring only grass. Ryomei would slowly walk out in front of Daiyu, pausing suddenly and turning to face her.
"Here will do..." she would say, her eyes focusing on Daiyu now as she eyed her curiously, here was where she would find out why Daiyu was really here. "This is where, we will get things off our chest".

[daiyu]

Ah finally the fun would begin, noticing that Ryomei had actually been quite the clever kitty Daiyu gave a giggle having moved slightly away from the girl once they arrived at the park, her stopping position being that of one right across the way from Ryomei, her body shifting slightly on it's own as she gave a soft sigh.

Now, she had not come with the intention to fight but everything that Ryomei had been doing seemed to indicate that it would be a unavoidable fact at this time, not that Daiyu wouldn't enjoy beating the girl into the soft grass and then maybe having a little bit of fun with her but she would have much rather avoided fighting at this point...afterall...she had gotten her nails so nice and pretty, a task which was far from easy for her.

"Ah...You don't intend for us to fight here?" Came her simple question as she gazed forward at the girl who had turned to face her, her voice echoing off about the getting things off of their chest here. Ever the two tracked min Daiyu had when it involved Ryomei, if it wasn't about sex, it was about fighting...

[Kerry]

"Of course" a simple reply would answer Daiyu, Ryomei's body shrugging slightly as she would begin to stretch, her eyes focused on Daiyu as she moved her body slowly with each gentle tug at her muscles, renewing any rusty flexibility for the fight before continuing, "Its open ground, the floor is soft, I could think of no better place" she would remark simply.

"That is what you came here to do wasn't it? Well, are you ready?" She would slowly move her body into stance after the comment, resting on the balls of her feet, one leg out in front of her another slightly behind at a diagonal angle, her hands the same and her body loosened up, moving slowly with a slight sway as she rolled on the balls of her feet, her trainers flexibly bending with her feet, her baggy top swaying softly with the lace like part at the hood swaying back and forth her chest. Her firmly tight jeans allowing her the flexibility she needed she would remain completely focused on her soon to be opponent, one way or another she would get the truth out of Daiyu, the will to fight can only bring a person so far, and as for her miraculously turning up on her door step it would have taken more than just that alone to drive someone that far, there was perhaps a little more than hurt pride that had caused fate to bring them together like this, and that was what she wanted to know.

[daiyu]

So it had been a fight afterall, in that case Daiyu would have no need for the hoodie as she pulled it from her body stopping only to take a secret deep breath of Ryomei's scent from the shirt before folding it neatly and setting it somewhere where it would not get taken away by the wind or stolen.

Once that was done and over with she had begun to stretch, a leg coming up parallel with her head as her arm curled around it and squeezed it in tighter until her skin was touching skin and repeating the action with her other leg. Her shoulders flexed and rolled before she smiled and shifted her position and assumed a stance.

"Ready." Was all she would say, her eyes focused in on upon Ryomei, one leg stretched slightly ahead and downward arcing it's self as her hands raised and swayed up and down slightly both arms in the shape of a snakes head as her eyes glared daggers across the way to Ryomei, ready for the fight to begin.

[Kerry]

As soon as that fateful word escaped Daiyu's lips 'ready' Ryomei pushed off from the ground quickly, her body moving suddenly, sharply and streamlined, her left arm coming across her body with the elbow pointed towards Daiyu, her right arm moving quickly straight out to the right as she made her approach.
The distance between them was short, the grass was smooth, slightly damp from the late night due and her feet passed easily over it, the breeze was soft and she traveled quickly towards Daiyu, pulling up just short of punching range her left leg would play partial anchor to her body as she would attempt to halt on one leg suddenly, of course not intended to succeed, the attempted halting momentum would hook her body around in a furious anti clockwise rotation her right leg lifting straight up to around Daiyu's head height, her knee bent and the section where the lower shin and foot combine was aimed directly for her face.

From what Ryomei could remember of Daiyu her blocking was near to non existent, she was more of a dodge fighter from last there encounter, though faces may be blurry the linear reflection of Daiyu's unique fighting style even back then remained clear in her mind and although she wasn't needing to put additional force into the kick to break down a block she would do so anyway just in case, at the very least it would provide for additional support to follow through for a second and tertiary attack.

As her leg swung round, her body would twist her arms swinging quickly from the right of her body to the left as her body turned, her left leg lifting up from the ground as the right would likely pass its course, expecting to miss Daiyu slightly as to anticipate for a backwards step to avoid her initial attack the consistent momentum from her movements would provide enough to switch pivoting legs from left to right and continue her assault with a secondary attack, a round house heel kick with the FULL extension of the leg - as the first attack was at half range in total, the sudden full extension would catch those un prepared off guard easily. Of course there could and likely would be more to come if Daiyu couldn't disrupt the circular rotary flow of momentum Ryomei had already managed to achieve, but one never knew.

[daiyu]

Expecting a move Daiyu had managed to move backwards, her body bending and flexing backwards on the spot as the leg moved straight over her body she was, however, not entirely prepared fro the second incoming blow.

You'd think that she would have remembered a move like this, but sadly, she did not. As her head came up the leg was coming back around and this time in a full-extension and her eyes went wide as the leg collided with her face and her body went airborn.

At times like this she cursed her self for not having prepared better, this match had been totally unexpected to Daiyu and even still Ryomei had managed to flawlessly destroy through her style and in the process destroy her her self, and with a thud the Chinese girls body hit the grass.

Grogginess overcame her as her body shifted and pulled at the wet grass beneath her, her vision hazing slightly as a slight groan escaped her lips. This was far from her most graceful of moments, to be defeat with such a simple combo that she hadn't even seen coming...this was worse then the tournament...

[Kerry]

Ryomei gasped in a slight disbelief, unprepared for the girl to take a hit this early on, let alone one of such severity as she had just taken the full strike of the round house. As the girls body had gone airborne she would have been caught even then in the follow up from the next attack, but pulling away quickly Ryomei hopped away in the alternate direction, killing her momentum after a slight slide on the grass she would quickly snap her gaze back to the girl who seemed to be looking around in disbelief as well as incoherent dizziness.

"Oh shit..."

Quickly she would move, perhaps now even faster than she had in attacking Daiyu, sliding to her knees as she positioned herself right up to her, her hands moving straight to Daiyu as she held her up somewhat off the wet floor, a shocked look on her face...
It had seemed that Daiyu had not been ready for her this time, by far to be out in a single strike. Bitting her lip as the innocent looking girl slowly began to fall into an unconscious state. Ryomei's eyes looked down the girl, her make up, her choice of clothing, this scene wasn't right.
Gritting her teeth and clenching the girl tightly as she closed her eyes she would mutter quietly, "Damn it... I'm sorry I didn't think I.." With the girl passing into an unconscious state she felt her stomach turning at what had just happened. Daiyu probably hadn't come to fight at all, she wasn't dressed as a fighter would if they had come for such a fight, she wasn't even the one that suggested it and right now Ryomei was feeling almost physically sick for having forced this on the girl, and it had all happened so quickly, far more quickly and devastating than she would have imagined.

"Your losing conciousness... I can't leave you here" she would mutter, reaching out for the nearby hooded jumper as Daiyu hadn't really moved from the spot since she took stance, taking it and placing it on Daiyu's stomach she would look around for a moment before reaching her hands under the girl.
"Urgh, I'm gunna bring you back to mine.. if you can even still hear me" she would say before attempting to pick the girl up.

[daiyu]

With a groan and a slight flex her legs would suddenly lurch upward, both firm legs locking them selves around Ryomei's body giving her a sure shot straight up Daiyu's skirt...though there was no force behind the action, rather, as it stood Daiyu was without consciousness, her body had reacted on extinct and pure adrenaline from the fight which it would not have.

And so her limp form lay there, half held by Ryomei and half limply curled around the girls next as the shallow breathing cause her chest to rise and fall and her eyes were closed, the softness of her legs pressing against Ryomei's skin as the slight fuzziness of her socks would as well brush the skin.

She was out like a light for now...

[Kerry]

"God damn it girl..." Ryomei would say, her face turned from the girl as her cheeks lit with a light pink, staring away from Daiyu's moment of exposed moment. It was going to be a tricky carry now that Daiyu had successfully wrapped herself around Ryomei, but lifting her carefully she would manage the struggle as she carried her back to her apartment. Trying to keep the fact the girls rather soft thighs were firmly around her, her skin feel-able as she carried her.

Finally, arriving back at the apartment, after managing the stairs she one handedly opened the door and moved inside with Daiyu, taking her into her 'main room' or well, her bedroom to lay her on the simple mattress on the ground. Far from grandeurs she left the covers off the girl as the apartment was still warm.
Sitting there for a moment Ryomei simply looked at the girl, that pink redness appearing back at her cheeks her hand would touch down on her own face, relieving a slight growl as she looked away with a sight.
"Its getting too warm in here to wear this..." she muttered to herself, walking off to behind the tv where she had slung her hello kitty shirt she would begin undressing herself, as quickly as she could mind, to return to being back in just panties and shirt.
Her hands unbuttoning her jeans, sliding them down her firm legs, once again returning to only her underwear, the cooler temperature now relieving her hot legs as she gave a slight sigh, her arms stretching up openly as she removed her top, swapping to the much larger and baggy shirt she had been wearing before.
Once her clothes were changed and folded, she would turn back to Daiyu, moving round to see if she had woken yet or not.

"Damn it... silly girl, what did you want then if you were so unprepared for fighting..." she would mutter quietly before shaking her head slightly, feeling somewhat bad about the entire ordeal.
