I'm a little exhausted from all this darting around. They really made me work for this one. She's got plenty of weapons on her disposal, the sword will probably do the worst to me. I've got to disarm her.
"Well, well, well, looks like we've drawn a crowd, lets give them a real show stopper!"
Zukiro sounded as if he was the most deranged monk to ever exist.
After a brief chant, the mist dissipitated, and 3 giant mirror-like ice walls sprouted around the platform. The crowd got an amazing view of the fighters even if they were 90 m up in the air.
"Lettuce, begin."
Zukiro, munched on a lettuce leaf before appearing next to Celegwen landing a clean hit in the calf.
Celegwen readied herself, she closed her eyes and waited.
THUD*
Celegwen managed to trip Zukiro flat on his back.
Zukiro rolled over like the good wolf he was. He managed to disarm Celegwen, of her sword, bow, whilst he was falling.
Zukiro bounded back to his side of the platform and took a fighting stance.
"The only way you're getting that ale, is by beating an old drunk monk in a fist fight."
Celegwen, charged at him at a surprising speed. She went for a punch, Zukiro dodged lazily, but Celegwen whipped around and landed a hit with the back of her hand.
"Oooh, she's fiesty, I like it."
Zukiro began to fight as if he was dancing, swaying side to side, tripping Celegwen, but also tripping over himself at the same time. Celegwen landed a barrage of clean hits, from the gut, to hooking him right in the jaw.
Zukiro focused more on landing hits with his legs, those were his strong suit. But the lack of air, and the attacks on Aithusa were clearly wearing him down more so than Celegwen.
She had a fire in her eye, one similar to Zukiro's father when he was still alive. He smirked a bit.
Zukiro could just barely catch a breath, although he had trained a numerous amount of times in these conditions, this one was giving a run for his money.
Zukiro darted forward for a high roundhouse kick. Celegwen ducked and responded with a low sweep that knocked him flat on the stomach.
