Bruce VS Felix

[Odin Reeves]

Ring Two.

[Felix]

Felix had been uneasy hearing the rules in the locker room. 'Only ten minutes to a fight. This is going to make it fast paced and frantic. As long as you can keep your cool for the first matches you should do alright.' Felix entered the lit ring to a meager applause, most of the spectators being there only to watch the rounds in hopes of blood being spilled. 'Savages, you get 'em everywhere you go.'

His first opponent, Bruce, he'd known long before this tourny. If there was somehting he knew, it was that Bruce had improved a lot since the last he'd seen of him. Felix would have to prepare for a truly tough fight. 'And all in the first round too. Doesn't seem like I'm fated to win this one. Especially with this tourny all in one night.'

He bounced around on the toes of his feet a little bit, getting his blood to start pumping throughout his body. His heart was hammering within his chest, was it nerves, or was it the rush of being in front of a spectacle such as this? He streched out, his arms first. He'd have to grab Bruce and bring him down fast. 'No screwing around Felix. In, down, and start slugging away.' He grimaced at the thought. 'Tournies bring out the worst in me.'

Standing in the ring with nothing to do except wait for his opponent to enter the ring, he looked around at the crowds. It was sort of sad to see this kind of entertainment was still looked for. Hell, he himself didn't know why he was there. No prize determined, but a win is a win. And Felix just got here. He wanted to be put on the map of Hircine. This was the best way known to students.

He returned his wandering gaze towards the locker room doors. He was still waiting for his opponent to show up. Then he could begin his slow, steady crawl through the matches.

[Bruce is out for not posting. Antonio is in, should he choose to be.]

A masked boy has some thoughts running through his mind after Odin tells the rules to everyone. He stayed in the locker room for a little bit. The reason he joined the tournament was obvious from the look in his eyes. He was looking at his arms. He wanted to get better. Then he thought to himself with his mask getting tighter;

'This is an underground tournament. No rules, just like thursday nights in the LCFA. I wonder who will have to meet? There's only ten minutes for this first match. I should be able to last, but winning is another question. I should just try making friends, and it's better than making enemies. The environment looks very hostile.'

Someone called out for Antonio in the locker room. A boy now bigger than him called out for him and led him out towards the ring. Antonio looked around, and people from gangs, and people who gambled filled the arena. The judges were looking on with black suits and black ties. The irony was that they looked very official for an underground tournament.

Antonio stepped into the ring with the same determination, and enthusiasm. He met his opponent, possibly a good friend after the match. Just to show sportsmanship, Antonio jokingly said to Felix with a smile on his face;

"What's with everyone in the audience? They all look like a bunch of stiffs. We have to put on a good ten minute match, or else they might enter the ring, and all of them will beat us."

Antonio offered a handshake with his right to Felix to show even more sportsmanship.

ooc: awww man, sux that my internet went screwy for a couple of days, good luck you two make it a good fight at least

[Felix]

Felix stared coldly at the masked figure walking up to the ring. 'And I could have sworn that Bruce was my opponent. And what's with the mask. I really want to laugh.' Felix wondered if this was his opponent. He never knew anyone who fought with a mask on. 'Wouldn't that hinder sight. Maybe, I'll have to see.'

Throughout Felix's short mind trip, the masked fighter was actually speaking, in fact, he was holding out his hand, as if in a show of sportamanship. "Everyone in the audience is awaiting to see which of us gets beaten." He thought quickly to himself, 'If I want to finish this fast I'm going to have to be quick about it. But his smaller frame is leaving me without a clear opening.'

It was then Felix saw his outstretched hand and smiled to his opponent. He reached across rather loosely and shook his hand. "You'll have to forgive me if I want to skip formalities 'till after this is over. We only have ten minutes for this first round."

Felix was quick on the grab and yanked Antonio's arm from him, immediately placing him off balance and quickly changing the position of his hands. His right sliding to the elbow, while his left hand grabbed at the wrist. Securing his hold he pivoted counter clockwise and slid his right leg under Antonio's arm, bending forward and flipping Antonio over himself and onto the hard floor of the ring. Antonio being smaller than Felix by a considerable amount he was easily able to lift him with ease.

Looking down at what Felix hoped to be a startled face he replied, "I'm Felix by the way, don't like to be too patient, so I started things off with a small bang." He smiled his broadest smile at Antonio, and backed up, shifting into his stance, legs shoudler width apart, left in front of the right. He held his arms up, but loosely, so he could snap them out when it was most advantageous. "Let's see what you can do." As he gave a small nod of his head.

Antonio was placed off balance by a grab. He slided into an elbow, and he was tripped by the right leg. He was now back on the ground. While Felix was introducing himself, Antonio got up and accepted his offer. Antonio scanned his opponent and the stance he was in. Antonio thought to himself.

'If this guy is being unfair, why would he need to have a stance to beat me? He looks like the type who will do anything for a win. But the ring is something I am used to training in. I can use my all my techniques now.'

Antonio didn't have a guard up and his legs were the same way as before. Antonio darted off from the spot he stood up from and charged at Felix. Antonio's goal was not to charge at Felix to take him down. But he wanted his attention. He sprinted but not so fast he would trip over anything. He waited to see if Felix would do anything.

'Is the kid suicidal?' His mind screamed the question out loud. The noise from the crowd had made thinking to himself near impossible. He couldn't concentrate on his thoughts. 'If he wants to get in close, I'm gonna keep him at range instead.'

He still had more fights to come, and so far he hadn't needed to take too much punishment. He would make sure he would get hit as little as possible in this first round taster. When Antonio was only three feet away, Felix ducked and rolled out to his left. When he was able to right himself he quickly planted his left hand palm down, fingers wide on the ground. His momentum was stopped abruptly, and he was able to snap out his right leg toward's Antonio's right shin.

He hadn't expected his roll to be as close as it was, but he still felt the connection and watched gleefully as Antonio lost balance, having his leg kicked out from under him. "If your going to rush me, at least have a plan of attack. This is almost too easy." He stayed in his kneeling position, catching the slight loss of breath the roll had caused.

'I wonder if he's even trying. He may just be letting me win.' He smirked at that thought and immedaitely scolded himself. Nothing was ever won that easily. He'd have to keep his guard up now. 'It's still early in the fight.'

Antonio took a hit to the shin from a kick. He was beginning to lose balance towards the ropes. As he began to fall foward, he noticed that Felix rolled right into to the corner of the ring. He didn't hit the corner, he just happend to be there. He didn't get up yet.

Antonio kept falling towards the ropes, but just then he reacted with the ropes. As his body fell forward at a very angled motion, he felt himself flip forward. There was a pushing sensation in his legs. His legs would push off the ropes, sending his back crashing to where Felix was kneeling, trying to catch his breath.

'What the heck is happening right now?' Antonio thought, going through the air downwards to the ground.

Antonio doesn't have any idea what was happening, since it was all so sudden. But he assumes he is doing an aerial attack, he has not done before.
