| Show me what you are made of Shengtea |
The Battle Arena. Puar, or Shengtea as she was calling herself in this lismian disguise, was very familiar with this kind of scene. Her opponent had information on the sell of the Ring of Azara’s Right hand, but he would not give that information up without a cost.
This battle was the cost.
She had to win against him to gain the information, and Shengtea was not lacking confidence at all. The roar of the crowd could send cold shivers down the spine of a snowman, and it did so to her. Her golden blonde hair was flipped away from her blue eyes before she grabbed a headband and tied her hair into place.
She was wearing a white karate gi, but she easily slacked it at her shoulders and dropped the upper half of it. Underneath she donned a crimson colored sleeveless which highlighted her physique. Puar normally did not take a form that showed just how fit she was and to her partner Mazikeen this form was strangely amusing.
“This makes me wonder just what her true form is,” Mazikeen mumbled to herself in a low tone. She knew the woman as Puar, a blue cat girl who sported a lean figure. Mazikeen was told of Puar’s ability to shift her form into nearly anything, but this was the first time she was witnessing the ability for herself.
She was very impressed. She could sense that Puar changed herself down to her own DNA coding. This person in-front of her was like a completely different person than Puar.
And thus, Mazikeen had to treat her as such. Shengtea was an entity all by herself.
“So, I just have to win, huh?” Shengtea goated him for a moment while getting into a fighting stance. It was wide and her arms were positioned in-front of her, one palm upward and another downward.
Her voice had depth to it, which solidified that she was a mature woman. There was a hint of ghetto in her speak, which gave off the impression that she spent most of her lifetime on the streets of Cactaylisma – which honestly was not that far from the true Puar.
She lived her in a crime family much before she had become Puar, but it was on Earth instead of here. “Brace yourself then. I won’t be holding back.”
First her foot slid forward with a cautious ease…
And then she took a massive lunge forward, driving her speed to near its maximum in one thrust to attempt at catching the changeling off guard. When her body had entered his personal radius, she immediately went on an aggressive offensive with five strikes from her hands.
Each strike focused the knuckles of her hands into his flesh, wanting to soften his shell for an easy cracking later on. After the fifth strike, she rose her leg up as quick as lightning and wanted to connect with his facial structure and pop of a resounding thunderclap sound.
The power of her leg would cause her to follow through completely, and she would need to spin around in order to carry that momentum into her next assault. It was the same as the previous, in number count. This time five kicks, quick in their design, poked and prodded at his body. After those kicks, she punched forward to try and catch him in the jaw.
She put all her weight into the punch, lunging and swinging with intent to knock his head off. After that beginning assault, Shengtea’s stance changed, and the distant echoes of wild dogs marched through the arena. Her fingers had become rigid and mimicked claws (If Puar wasn’t so keen on keeping her shape shifting a secret she would easily have made them claws just for him). Her stance that she took was still wide and square, and the next barrage of strikes were wider and covered more range in motion than her pinpointed blows of earlier.
Four sets of strikes from her clawed hands tore at Eski’s flesh as if trying to render if from his bone. They were each fives quick strikes that had a strong swipe in-between them. With each strike that came out, her breathing followed suit to maintain a balance to her power and fatigue, something a master of martial arts seemed to have more practice doing.
When she was done with the combination, her stance once again settled. Baji Quan was her style to start, and Baji Quan was the stance she finished in.
Shengtea was ready to be aggressive.

Notes for Monitor | [Combat Rune]
Eski raised a single hand in acknowledgement of the roar of the crowd that heralded his entrance into the battle arena. Formerly a place where has-been warriors fought once-fierce beasts that had been rendered toothless and pathetic by generations of inbreeding in the pens beneath the main arena ground. Much of Cactaylisma had been in a similar state when he began his take over. Now it knew prosperity anew and the blood sports were one of the main draws in this part of the planet. Facing off against this Lismian was not the Eski who had seen his clandestine empire pillaged by Chilled, who had put all of his faith in the brutal caste system that he had been born into. The simple fact of existence as he had grown to understand it was that people with wealth mattered and people without didn't. On Cactaylisma, in spite of his low standing on Frieza, Eski mattered.
So when this Lismian with a concerningly short history came to see him about a specific artefact, he saw an opportunity to cultivate an ally as well as his position within this society. Fights of this scale were granted to very few, and Eski hadn't won all of them - at least not in the ring. A shrewd business mind knew when to throw his opponents a bone and knew when to make them disappear following the bout. He suspected that no matter the outcome, this particular opponent would be one of those who received the bone.
"That is correct," he said, in response to her question, and when she told him that she wouldn't be holding back, "good, I wouldn't want the crowd to feel cheated once one of us is laying on their back."
She was a ferocious one, this Shengtea and she wasted no time making good on her promise to hold nothing back. In his mind's eye, Eski witness the pummelling that she sought to deliver and used all of his considerable agility in this form to simply be where the attacks weren't. It did him little good, as the all over shots and follow up kick were delivered with expert decision. It was fortunate for him that the fight had only just started - a shot like that near the end might have rocked him. A disembodied canine roar sounded and Eski knew what was coming next. The lupine kata was one that he had studied extensively and he was keen to see her take on it. Rigid, bony fingers resembled claws as they sought to rake across his flesh. He moved his body just enough that the pseudo-claws hit nothing but air, until there was sufficient repetition to present him with an opening. Eski bought himself some room by springing into the air. He lashed out with a single clawed foot, aiming to spring off her collarbone into a flip that would grant him some distance. Landing with knees bent, Eski lunged forward again in a movement that he hoped would be unexpected. A single powerful punch rocketed towards her jaw as soon as he reached the perfect distance for a snappy punch and as quickly as it was delivered he was dashing backwards again, two hands outstretched to fire a single volley of blasts.
In no time flat, Shengtea was on him again, those vicious bony fingers raking across his flesh.
"Enough!" he thundered, reaching out with both hands to make a gesture in the form of a sphere. The energy flowed from him, through his hands and into the space around her to form a ball of destructive energy. Eski charged the ball now, punting it into the air with as much force as he could muster. A fraction of a moment later he was above it, sending it spinning back to the ground with another kick. Following it with all of the speed he could muster, Eski punching it from the side to send it in an arcing path across the arena before catching it once more and sending it into the ground with the strongest hammerblow that he could muster. Even over the sounds of the explosions, Eski could hear the oohs and ahhs of the crowd as they took in the spectacle before them.

| My Ultimate Technique! Shengtea |
Interesting. He has experience.
Shengtea had a great deal of intel on how spoiled the changeling race was. They were natural prodigies when it came to power, and many were unrefined in fighting skill. This one was different and as their fight had pushed on, she noticed that they were at an equal exchange rather than a back and forth. She got in a few hits, but he countered between them. Her natural instincts were to weave through the foot toward her collarbone, but Shengtea became a spring for him, nonetheless. She took steps back to mitigate the force, yet none of the damage. He punched at her jaw, and she allowed a connection, only so she could let it slip off her face after its impact; again, another allowance of pain only to mitigate the force. It was about finding an opening rather than countering and dodging everything. Fighting a foe such as this was about patience. Shengtea had patience. His hand shot out, firing out a hail of ripe energy, and she rose her guard up. It was too quick for her to add force to her guard however, and she let out a loud grunt of distress. He has expert level quickness. I bet he won’t let up. And so, she did not give him a chance to continue his retaliation. She was on him in no time flat. After a combination and before she could continue into a new string, a thunderous yell of power came from his throat which froze her for a split second.That was all he needed. He trapped her in a ball, and she was baffled and at once brought to a small panic. “What the,” Shengtea let out as she was completely froze in his bubble of power. She struggled to move to no prevail and she watched in horror as she became his personal playing ball. Each hit made the woman grunt and moan in anguish all before the orb itself was spiked to the ground to create a massive explosion.After the explosion, many did not stand. Once the smoke cleared there normally would be an injured and unconscious body upon the arena floors – sometimes a dead one. But this time was different. Once the smoke cleared, Shengtea stood there, hunched over with bruises all over her body, her clothing completely tattered, and only the grace of anime magic keeping her endowed chest from showing to the crowd.She let several breaths escape from her mouth, her chest heaving to allow them passage outward. “Well,” she started while wiping the trickle of blood from her mouth. It seemed serious, but all she did was bite her own tongue (which still hurt like a bitch). “That was a start.”Now Shengtea realized that it was time to get serious. He had a lead on her, and she felt in with her own body. “You deserve to see a technique I have personally been working on,” she said while forcing her arms outward. Shengtea pulled her hands close to her chest, facing the palms at each other, one upward and the other downward. Her fingers were arced like claws and her power started a dangerous rise. As the Lismian's power rose, the heat around the arena increased and there was a low grumble coming from the depths of her very soul and exiting out of her clenching teeth. Her growl had a mixture of pain and concentration weaved into it. It sounded like the low growl of a tiger that was showing off its teeth to its prey and allowing them to know that they may be outmatched by its ferocity. An atmosphere of perilous energy exploded from Shengtea’s body and caused the spectators to shield themselves from the impressive heat wave coming from her body.A ring of fire started to spin within the confines of her palms, the size of the open space the martial artist left between them, and her moans of concentration ceased with a satisfied gasp as the energy had finally finished forming. It took time to form this technique, she knew. Firing it toward him at this angle was too easy and he would surely have expected it. She took one step forward and brought the energy attack to the side of her body before Shengtea pulled forward in a dash.She was going to make this a close-range attack.The entirety of her form, both body and spirit, blinked away. Not even a moment had passed before she was at his side, close enough for him to feel her breath against his neck, warming him almost more than her attack would have. He could hear her brutal echoed tone as she yelled the name of her attack with a booming vocal.“Burning X Palm Strike!”
She transferred all the energy at the very tip of her right palm and shoved all of that potent energy into the kidney area, trying to force the energy directly into his body. Once the energy entered him, it would exit four different ways, forming a sharp X shape from his body. His body would sear and cook at the heat of her power.Immediately after the attack had finished, Shengtea had let out a roaring yell and her instead of her drive simmering back down to the reserved feeling it had at the beginning, she tensed her body and tapped into her maximum state of power. Her rise in power would shake the arena and the heat wave began to develop mirages of herself to surround the changeling – illusions. She began a graceful dance with her feet, moving in circles around him and keeping herself in range to strike him unless he escaped it.Actions Current Mystic Mark Spread: Eski- 0 Marks.

Notes for Monitor | [Combat Rune]
"A start," he grumbled to himself as he fought to regain his breath. Eski had put quite a lot of energy into that attack. His grumbling faded to nothing as a ring of fire formed in front of her hands, only to grow with intensity the longer she concentrated. Eski didn't like fire - not one bit. As she closed the distance to him, Eski could do little except retreat behind a turtle's block like a coward trying desperately to escape a predator. He had not anticipated such a strike from this woman.
Shengtea was relentless, closing the distance between him once again to circle him like a beast stalking their prey. If this was what she managed to bring for the duration of the fight, he would be very impressed indeed. As she continued her stalk, he jabbed towards her head to encourage the maintenance of a healthy distance. Once two such jabs had been thrown he attempted a brutal front kick. She might begin to recognise a pattern now, with two more jabs to keep her at a distance and another brutal front kick. This front kick would be different. The success of this gambit would depend on how well she knew Changeling physiology. At the culmination of this front kick he would try to seize her by the front of her garments. Following up to this would be fourteen whips with his tail. They would target her face, back and flanks in an attempt to achieve the sort of all over tenderness that only a good pounding can provide. When all was said and done he would release her, only to throw a brutal elbow directly at the bridge of her nose.

| My Ultimate Technique! Shengtea |
The multiple mist copies of Shengtea continued to circle him. Each moved in different orbits around him, and their stances gave off the nature to counter. Aggression was needed against an opponent of Eski’s caliber and the Lismian was not going to disappoint. His first combination, jabs for distance and a kick, smashed into smoke. That copy of Shengtea had faded into the abyss and while he was open the real her took a step forward and her smooth stance hardened like a river of cement. With muscles bulged out her punches snapped out like machine gun fire. After a grouping of shots, one heavy fist focused on his chest like a cannon ball, Shengtea letting out yell. His jabs weaved through after her punch, but her focused reflexes allowed her to beat him to the punch (literally).
She interrupted his jabs with more of her own, her battle yell raging throughout the battlefield for all to hear. Just as his movements were similar, so was hers. She depended on speed over predictability; if he knew it was coming that was fine. Was he fast enough to stop it? Just like last time, she ended that wave of attacks with a hard punch to his sternum. Even with her adding on the pressure, Shengtea found herself trapped by his hold and before she could react to it, his tail surprised her with several whips.
The Lisman woman clamped her teeth down as the whips tenderized her skin. Her eyes searched for an opening, almost desperately. It was almost hard to find it with the crowd raving on at her quandary, but after the twelfth whip, she extended her arm quick and hard with a palm strike to attempt to separate them forcefully before he ended his combination with momentum. Without giving him much room to separate from her, Shengtea drove into him with four more punches and this time ended it with an elbow into his abdomen.
Taking a split second to breathe away the pain, Shengtea rushed at him with intent to string together an impressive combination of 24 strikes. After each set of five strikes, mixing knuckle shots, back hand blows, and elbow strikes, there was a defining and decisive finishing blow. The first one was a spinning back hand to his skull. The second and third were both haymaker punches to the side of his face. The very last one, before she took a moment to gather herself, was two fists jamming into his chest like spears.
“Haaa!!!!!!!!!!”

Notes for Monitor | [Combat Rune]
Shengtea's arms were but a blur as she struck a flurry of blows whose complete movement Eski found nigh impossible to track. This girl really was something else. Desperate thoughts weaved themselves from the back of his mind regarding his ability to get around such speed - or lack thereof. Finesse was something that he had prided himself on in the past, but it would seem that he had met his match here. The Lismian had his number in the close quarters battle, something that had not happened in some time. Not only was he momentarily overwhelmed by the volume, precision and speed of the strikes but he could feel something vampiric about them - as though she was trying to drain his very energy each time her gauntleted hand met his flesh.
As her combination began to slow, Eski exerted himself in an effort to regain the initiative. With a strong elbow strike aimed at her gut whose sole purpose was to get the Lismian off balance, Eski moved to spin like a dancer on what passed for a heel in changeling physiology. This momentum allowed him to once more use his tail against his opponent. Recognising her superior speed, Eski aimed solely for the legs with each of the three strikes with the purpose of tripping her up. With her hopefully off-balance, he would use some of the grace that he himself possessed to slip around behind her and delivered a pair of ki-infused punches to the muscular flesh between her shoulder blades. With any luck, she would find it more difficult to throw such graceful punches in the future. He moved quickly again, taking up a position in front of her to deliver his coup de grace of sorts. A simple, yet brutal pimp slap would perhaps send her spinning to the ground to remind her that while she may have the grace of a dancer, he had the strength of a lion.

Eski’s intro was more appealing. I got a better sense of him in a shorter time than Puar’s slightly convoluted introduction with Mazikeen shoved in. I was pleased to see that Puar's writing of what can be super repetitive attacks remained creative though, and didn’t drag. At this point on Eski’s end I started getting riddled with grammar typos that took a lot from the post. (If you don’t already, I always suggest people just give their post one read through when they’re finished because I make a lot of those errors if I don’t do that. Like it doesn’t even come off as someone with bad grammar so much as you were going too fast and your fingers wrote quicker than your brain.) Next post, again Aria showed his skills in still roleplaying how the attacks against him were taken without making it feel bogged down. This does reduce a tiny bit of damage for me in taken attacks and imo helps control the flow of the battle because even though Eski’s attacking, Puar is keeping control on how she is taking them. Meanwhile, Eski’s block only save him due to the fact I have a reduction of damage for shell shocked high DRs like that at such low damage but one sentence wasn't really cutting it to get a full block. Despite a short post though, his physicals were creative and an interesting take to go at it with. Third post was lacking the previous luster on Puar's end, the weight of so many combos beginning to take toll, but it stayed mostly easy to understand with some creative spots slipped in to keep me engaged enough. I liked Eski’s acceptance of the strikes but felt like it could have been fleshed out a bit better. KO level damage doesn’t matter, but damage still exists. His attacks however were entertaining and descriptive without reaching any fatigue. At the end of the day though its clear Puar is putting a lot more effort into his posts, which require more effort tbh. Eski has some advantages to work against him on but he'll have to put more grit into his replies!

Shengtea let out a puff of pent-up air, one to never forget to breathe properly. Breathing was more important than focus to her, even if it took time away from said focus. Because of that, Eski had enough time to switch to the offensive and Shengtea mustered up a painful grunt at his elbow into her gut. Her eyes popped open a bit wider for a moment and she went to reach for the tender center with ease. His tail, an advantage to his race, caught her off guard and took her feet underneath her with 3 easy strikes.
Her primary reaction was to stop nursing her gut and upon landing with a rough thud on the ground Shengtea would flip herself back onto her feet.
A fighter should never remain on the ground.
When she was back onto her feet, however, twin burning hammers slammed into the back of her shoulder blades and she screeched in displeasure. Her own screech masked the sounds of a painful dislocation. Shengtea went right to the ground but did not stay for long like before. She rolled forward, putting space between the two and taking hold to the arm which remained limp for the moment.
Without wasting time, she balled up her own fist and cocked it back. A deep breath was taken before she screamed pre-maturely at her own fist slamming into her shoulder to pop it back in place. Shengtea winced as the bone popped back in its socket.
“Fuck!”
She grabbed at her own wrist and tested the weakness of the affected arm.
I was lucky that only one dislocated. He’s precise and a quick thinker. He saw my punches were a strong point and looked to take them out the game. What’s more impressive is that he gave my legs a lashing. It’s a bit tough to stand on them right now.
Sure enough, her knees had a slight shake to them, but not enough to be noticeable just yet.
He’s targeting. I am impressed. My shoulder needs time. I need adrenaline to set through. Time to change my breathing pattern. Increase the blood flow.
Her body lost a lot of its tension from the Baji Quan style, and she slipped into a more relaxed stature; something completely off the books to her normal style. She increased her breathing speed, evident from the rising and lowering of her chest. The Lismian woman stared at the Changeling just a split second longer as she analyzed her pathway to attack.
And then she sprung to action.
It took her maybe two leaping hops to get close to him again and Shengtea’s foot stomped down at his ankle before she worked her kicks up his body, 5 in total. With her better elbow she shot it forward with massive force toward his center mass placing more momentum at the sudden drop of her risen leg. Shengtea spun around, bringing her other leg out toward him and five wide kicks, like windshield wipers, swiped across his facial structure. Her foot threatened to slap his head around like a speed bag. With another spin, she forced her other leg toward his center like a spear. It came with the same quickness and the same ferocity that spearmen did to fish in deep waters.
Once she dropped her foot again Eski would probably notice she clenched her dislocated arm’s fist as if she was going to strike with it in its weakened state. Shengtea was testing its strength and upon its test she knew it was not ready yet. She also knew not to make herself predictable.
More adrenaline.
More so without warning, she took a quick step into his space and slammed her head down toward his own forehead with the force of an anvil block falling off a building. Upon the connection, Shengtea knew that the pain would mellow out any previous pain she was feeling beforehand. Would it connect? Or would the Changeling understand that maybe her head was a bit harder than his own?
Whether a connection happened or not, Shengtea would squat her body low and like a bullet from the chamber, her good arm shot out with immense power into his chest as if to attempt to break his chest plate into pieces. A loud boom would rocket throughout the arena if it landed and Eski would find it hard to both breath and move. “HAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!”
Without moving her fist from its spot, assuming it landed, smoke started to rise from her body before an aura exploded from her skin like dynamite. She propelled both forward, attempting to dig her knuckles deeper into his chest. She was going to drive him into the arena wall if he did not move out the way, and if she succeeded, the damage was going to be calamitous.

Notes for Monitor | [Combat Rune]
Eski was beginning to understand what a chicken schnitzel felt like. The pounding that he had taken thus far and continued to take at Shengtea's hand gave him the general all over ache of having been hit by a truck. Joints complained loudly whenever he bid them do something and the muscles connected to them sent angry messages through saltatory conduction along Eski's neurons to his brain. Put simply - his body was big mad and it was only getting worse as Shengtea continued to pound him in a way that made him not want to call her afterwards. And she was still. Too. Fucking. Fast. Eski limped out of the way with a badly twisted ankle following her stomping attack but failed to avoid anything. Blood flowed freely within his mouth now, the product of far too many strikes across his cheeks. Eski bared his teeth in a predatory smile, purple blood filling the gaps between his otherwise white teeth and making him look demonic. She wasn't impressed. At least that was the assumption Eski was going with as she sat him on his ass with a headbutt that surprised even him. Eski's horned head was armoured and yet it felt like he was hit by a hammer. At least that was his assumption until her next strike penetrated his bio-armour and sent that blood that had been pooling in his cheeks spraying into the air like a fountain. Eski hung limply at the end of her fist, held aloft only because her fist was now inside his armour.
As her whole form began to glow, Eski knew he was well and truly fucked. Her fist still inside his armour holding him up like some sort of grotesquely reversed puppet, the duo sped towards the arena wall. Would his stadium even survive an impact of that magnitude? It had been constructed well but there was only so much reinforcement that you could put into a structure before it began to seem extraneous. Shengtea seemed resolute, convinced of her own success. There wasn't as much thought in this - and there didn't really need to be. Eski grasped her wrist, twisting away with all of his might to stop her from being the hammer to the anvil that was the arena wall. It didn't do much. Like a stone skipping across water, Eski hit the ground several times before impacting with the wall anyway. When the smoke cleared, he was laying against a sizeable crater in the arena wall and Shengtea appeared much fresher. Her injuries had been soft-tissue and ligament related, while his were demonstrably worse and oozing/gushing blood.
Unable to bring himself to a standing position just yet, Eski swiped his hand in her direction, an invisible cutting beam of insidious dark energy filling the space quickly and honing in on her position. It would make things a lot better for him if she would just lose a limb or two and fold. It wouldn't be permanent and he would be able to get himself to one of his hospitals for rapid treatment of these injuries. Having taken a sufficient breather on his ass, Eski struggled to stand on unwilling legs before stumbling punch-drunk towards his foe to continue the bout. He wasn't out of this yet.

| My Ultimate Technique! Shengtea |
Shengtea was starting to feel her damaged limb better now and came to that conclusion after Eski had hit the ground. He narrowly avoided the brutality of her rushing tackle, the explosion masking that escape. She did not relax, yet his dark wave of thin, sharp energy surprised her. When she rose her arms up into a guard, she focused on fortifying the guard with her own energy.
Once it clashed with her arms a portion of the blade like energy sunk into her arm and she gasped in pain. With a burst of strength, she forced her guard to bloom outward like a flower in spring, breaking the energy into particles but not before it did some of its damage to her.
Fuck.
Blood streamed down her arm. She felt the nagging pulse of pain and bit her tongue to distract herself from it.
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. That’s it, I am ending this in the next few moves.
Eski got up, dabbling about while drunk on pain. He attempted to throw a punch, but the punch would immediately meet air. Shengtea had dropped low and swung her foot around to meet the back of his heel. If she was able to trip him up, Shengtea would rise with her palm cocked back like the hammer of a firearm.
Bang.
She forced her palm forward into his chest and energized momentum would exit her palm, into his body and out of his back in the form of pressure. It would be enough to send him flying with that momentum if he did not defend against it. Whether he flew or not, Shengtea’s stance mellowed down, her knees bent, and her arms spaced out in-front and behind her. Her body faced to the side rather directly toward Eski. There would be a visualization of countless, dry, and brittle leaves falling from the sky. They would crumble and fall slowly up until they were surrounding Shengtea, who was deep in concentration.
Her eyes were closed, only using her ability to sense Eski presence instead of her own eyesight.
“224 fallen leaves will crumble before you.”
Her eyes shot open, and she took the necessary steps to get in attack range. Both her hands pointed their index and middle finger, with only the thumbs to stabilize their position. They were like two needles, or tiny knives and she used them to stab into Eski. She aimed for specific spots of his body, points at which the flow of ki would take to fuel his body. Her movements were rapid and quick, her arms disappearing at the speed of which she stabbed him.
First it was 16 stabs before she took a step further into his space and twisted her body to give him 32 more. In the mist of stabbing him heat jumped off her body, bulging her muscles and heightening her quickness. A red aura settled after an explosion, pushing her body past its limits. She took another step and her body spun again.
There were another 16 strikes and following another step came 32 even faster than before. Her speed was gradually increasing to a point where her strikes were bleeding pressure into the very crowd of people. Her form would vanish for a split second before she appeared behind him, and she decided to jam 64 strikes into his backside.
Each time she would strike, the visual representation of the strikes came in the form of the leaves crumbling and whizzing right into Eski’s body, if they were to land.

Notes for Monitor | [Combat Rune]
The strategist in Eski knew it was a bad idea to stagger punch-drunk toward a person as skilled as Shengtea. He wasn't at all surprised, then, that his foe swept his legs from beneath him. The subsequent strike from the heel of her hand drove him into another, newly formed crater. A large gout of blood spurted from his mouth for form mist in the air. Eyes bulged out of Eski's head as he understood now that he had perhaps bitten off more than he could chew. He lay on his back for a moment before struggling to his feet once more. By the time he had done so, Eski found that his foe was once more shifting her stance to prepare something new to throw at him.
"Fallen leaves? I very doubt your leaves pose much of a threat."
Such was the speed at which they were moving, Shengtea's arms disappeared into blurry nothingness. When she approached, Eski was struck by a strange sensation. It wasn't pain as such, but he began to feel sluggish. It was as though his very essence was being blocked by these needle-thin strikes. Confused, the Changeling tried to retreat. This wasn't good sport! As her aura intensified to a fiery red, Eski tried to block. While it was true that he couldn't see her limbs, he could still see her. It was at this point that he noted her closed eyes. She was using her senses to track him. Well two could play at that game. Eski too closed his eyes, witnessing blasts of what looked strangely like leaves in his minds eye. Each strike saw the leaves crumbling and whizzing towards him. They glowed with power in his mind's eye and Eski could intercept them with his forearms to try and prevent them from striking their intended targets.
When at last the onslaught was over, Eski was panting with the exertion but he was also annoyed. This was a SPORT. Her mystic nonsense wasn't what the people were paying to see. His aura began to flare wildly, increasing his power as wave after wave of teal energy rolled off him. Now at his maximum, Eski was interested in see what the girl could do.
"I want to see power, child! Show me real power!"

| My Ultimate Technique! Shengtea |
Steam rolled off her cooling body as she stood there in a hunched stature. Her breathing fought to remain even and collected. After her assault on the changeling, locking his ability to utilize his ki, he responded by forcing the locks open with a fit of power.
That was one way to open a locked door.
He then began to yell in frustration at her fighting style. Even though he was being pummeled, he worried not of himself but the spectators and how they would react. Sure, Shengtea’s fighting style was effective, but it was not flash at all. Only one or two moves had a bit of flash, her X Burner Strike and her tackle into the wall, but that was it.
On cue to his yell for entertainment, the crowd mirrored his concerns and began to yell for it as well. They all wanted to see something explode. Shengtea, with her breath finally easier to catch, sighed. She was not an expert at it, but she knew well of the demand.
“If that is what you wish for,” she stated and she changed her stance up, standing more rigid with her fist pointed outward and her elbows locked to the side of her hips. A spark of energy surrounded her, along with pressure rising to the skies. Her voice bellowed as she let out a battle cry to match her increase in power level.
The entire arena rumbled at their power rise. The people began to yell as they knew something magnificent was about to happen. Shengtea’s aura finally exploded from her body as her power no longer could be contained within her, causing her to yell out and bloom all four of her appendages outward. A wave of domed energy rushed from her body to engulf the entire battlefield, narrowly ending at the noses of the closest spectators, but Eski would be in the most danger of being devoured by the burst.
When the smoke settled after the second eruption, Shengtea could be seen with a bright white light in between her palms, which were hanging over her head.
“YOU ASKED FOR IT!!”
She pointed her hands towards the ground and fired four unstable blasts and created four explosions that rocked the arena, obliterating it and causing the audience to rush for cover or even bail out of the stadium all together, unless it was stopped.

Notes for Monitor | [Combat Rune]
He may lack the brute strength of someone like Chilled, or the sneaky finesse of Shengtea's arch-magical command of mystic tea but what Eski could do was whip a crowd into a frenzy. Such was the reason he had settled on Cactaylisma. Once a wretched hive of scum and villainy, to borrow from popular culture on Sol, it was now a profitable venture where the crime was as organised as it could be. Petty criminals manipulated property prices, ensuring that no area was so gentrified that the locals couldn't afford to live there. Off-worlders were not valued for their tourism dollars and so had no real power here. Cactaylisma was no longer the stop for transients looking for a quick buck joining the Star Wolves.
"Oh sweet Winter child, I wish for a great many things. This is what THEY wish for! They wish to be ENTERTAINED!"
Specific emphasis was Eski's weapon here. He was as evil as they come, yet he was their hero because it was his face on the new hospitals, on the stadium. The amount of money flowing through this arena from the wealthy in the corporate boxes was redistributed throughout the slums - Eski made sure of it. With arms splayed, a dome rose rapidly from Eski's foe. She was giving him what he wanted and Eski couldn't help but smile. He may be an excellent businessman, but he still loved a good fight! Those in the aforementioned corporate boxes would be treated to a show right now. A rumbling started in Eski's throat as the dome approached, reaching fever pitch as the dome drew closer. The vibrations from the droning throat-singing disrupted the energy coming at Eski, causing the dome to looked from above as though someone had cut a slice from it. Shengtea would be able to see the devastation in everywhere but that one slice once she was done. For his part, Eski would no longer be there.
As she prepared to loose her blasts at the hapless ground of the arena, Eski would be behind her, prepared to whisper in her ear.
"You are not the only one who understands the flow of Ki through a body," he said, his voice a deathly whisper as he gripped her shoulder tight. A single digit pressed upon a pressure point near her shoulder blade while a fist drove into the small of her back. Paralysis, if it eventuated, would last less than a moment but it would be sufficient to dissipate the attack. With that he released his grip and placed some distance between them. Her final blast, similar in nature to that which he prevented, descended towards him faster than should have been possible. Calmly and with a single hand glowing, Eski batted the blast directly into the air. Following its progress with his other hand, Eski squeezed his fist. Inside the blast, the core of energy destabilised and resulted in an explosion of colour vaguely reminiscent of a single firework. Within that blast, a core of molten red and orange energy remained. It looked like a miniature sun to the naked eye and bathed the area in an eeries red glow.
Back down in the destroyed landscape, there were now dozens of small, teal-accented Changelings. Each had a single glowing finger pointing at the sky. This was no phone call home, this was Eski preparing to introduce Shengtea to her maker. Meanwhile, the orb in the sky had grown to the point where it obscured the sky almost completely. Were Shengtea to look around now, she would see that the Eski's had disappeared. Where was he now? It no longer mattered, for the orb had begun to move. It was slow, yes but an attack that was everywhere had all the time in the world to find its target and Shengtea was right in the middle of its path.

You are not the only one who understands the flow of Ki through a body.
Shit.
He baited her. Shengtea, no Puar, was ashamed and shocked. She did not understand why she stopped playing this by her rules and keeping the ball in her court. Was she too cocky? When he pressed his finger into her shoulder blade and punched her in the small of her back, more than just that energy dropped. She lost concentration completely for a split second and her transformation dissipated in a puff of smoke, revealing a dark-skinned earth born woman instead of the Lismian.
“Fuck.”
She still attempted to drive a blast into the ground as a last-ditch effort, but Eski was quick and smacked it away. This dropped Puar to her knees, but instead of a shameful gasp at being put into this situation there was a genuine smirk and chuckle that came from her lips.
“Well, you got me.”
It didn’t matter how much pressure she applied throughout the match; it was always down to the last person standing. If she had not broken character then she would have won this easily, like she was doing so beforehand. She didn’t look around at the multitude of forms he created, but she did look up when she saw the massive ball of energy coming down upon her.
Puar stood up and she held her arms upward in a guard and tension flowed through her body as easy as her own blood did. Once it crashed down upon her it had exploded and nearly destroyed the stadium. Puar knew, however, that Eski would not destroy something completely – he’d have to pay for it after all.
Once the dust settled she stood there breathing heavily. Puar focused more of her energy creating faux apparel to cover her body if her clothing torn to shreds, which it had done so. Her injuries were about as severe, if not a bit more, as Eski’s were from the repeated punishment he took from her. The big difference was who had more energy left within them.
Puar was spent. She could trudge on and build new momentum, but she felt inclined to give him this victory. And she did so with a wide smile.
“Ain’t no one ever exposed me like this before,” she stated about her true form. “Now, I really feel like kicking your ass a bit more.”
Upon saying that her aura seeped from her skin and her green eyes began to glow brightly. “But, I would rather be able to walk tomorrow. I know I lost and all, but since I gave you a show—think you can still let a girl in on that ring sale?”
Her aura calmed down and she slowed her breathing, soaking in the pains that started to creep up from her loss in adrenaline.

Notes for Monitor | [Combat Rune]
This girl had spunk. She had slipped just once in what was otherwise a masterful display of making Eski look foolish and he didn't doubt for even a second that she was capable of kicking his ass some more. This lull, however, seemed just as good a time as any to call it. The sale of the Ring of Azara was something that he had followed with some interest, fortunately for this human. He didn't much care about the pigment of her skin or the glow in her eyes, hell he wouldn't even consider it an untruth. Everybody here wore a mask.
