Scene change to Gekka Dojo
Ashen:
You guys arrived right on time!!
Yingli:
Lady Ashen!
Aaron:
Let’s get this over with, yeah?
Ashen:
Oh, Aaron! You’re so impatient, you should be more like Yingli!
Aaron:
Yeah, yeah! So what’re the deets on this tournament?
Ashen:
I will need you two to hand over your swords and Xiphas.
Oh Aaron, you can have these.
Yingli:
They are…
Ashen:
Throwing knives, just like the ones you use in battle, Yingli!
Yingli:
That’s right, Aaron is proficient in using them, too!
Aaron:
Throwing knives is a piece of cake, but I prefer swords.
Ashen:
Well, it’s time to hand them over!
Aaron:
Okay, okay!
Aaron (narration):
We entered the dojo and found a group of junior associates split up into two teams. I see what is happening here.
Ashen:
Now that everyone is here, let’s kick off this tournament! No arts allowed, you can only fight using your fists and throwing knives, we are putting your Gekka skills to the test!
Aaron:
So that’s why she took our Xiphas too.
Ashen:
I’m afraid you can’t use your little party trick, Yingli.
Yingli:
Understood, Lady Ashen.
Ashen:
One more thing on the menu – Aaron and Yingli will be fighting separately, one versus many via the teams we split up.
Aaron:
Saw this a mile away. Let’s get going!
Ashen:
Aaron will fight team A and Yingli will fight team B.
Get ready everyone and go!
Team A Junior Associate:
I trained every day – let me show you the results!
Aaron:
Hah, let’s see you try!
Team A Junior Associate:
Haaaaah!!
Aaron:
Oh oops, that’s a miss.
You’re paying for that too!
Take this!
Team A Junior Associate:
Aaagh!!
Aaron (narration):
These guys need way more training before they can take me on! Yingli is not doing bad either. I am afraid for her juniors, every knife throw she did could have been fatal, my girl is working hard not to kill anyone.
Team B Junior Associate:
The rumours were true, you’re the monster Heiyue kept locked up in the basement many years ago.
Yingli:
You can refer me to whatever suits you. It makes little difference on the battlefield, please prepare yourselves!
Yuesharen!!
Team B Junior Associate:
You were aiming for my tendons!!
Yingli:
Your enemy missed something vital then, time for a counter attack!
Team B Junior Associate:
Don’t think I wouldn’t!!
Take this!
Aaron (narration):
Oh damn, Yingli’s side is turning into a full on training session, she’s got to take them out at some point!
Team A Junior Associate:
Yeaaaaaaa!!!
Aaron:
Too slow!!
POV change to Yingli
Yingli (narration):
Ah… Aaron’s just playing around with the juniors. Hm… I wish he would use throwing knives more often, his accuracy with them is unmatched! He can even counter other knives with his own in the air! That took me months to master! Time for me to bring this battle to the next level, I can’t make Aaron look bad!
Yingli:
…
Team B Junior Associate A:
Something is coming! That monster is focused!
Team B Junior Associate B:
She’s got eight knives out! Defenses up, men!
Yingli:
Huan Yuesharen!
Team B:
Augh!
Yingli (narration):
Wonderful, everyone is disarmed. Now, some touch ups.
POV change to Aaron
Aaron (narration):
My girl dropped all of her opponents’ knives! Now she’s aiming for their backs! Hoooh… so that’s how you’re gonna play… Yingli’s dancing around all the shrimp and downing them one by one!
Aaron:
Hah! Time to get serious!
Huan Yuesharen!!
Phoenix Barrage!!
Team A:
Ugh!!! He is too strong!
POV change to Yingli
Yingli (narration):
That is… !!
Just by watching me, Aaron was able to learn my skills! He really does know my moves in and out! He is swiftly knocking out his opponents one by one with deliberate strikes, too! Brings back some memories of when we still practiced at the dojo.
POV change to Aaron
Aaron:
Game and set! I win! You guys need to train some more!
Ashen:
That’s it!! Our Twin Stars won this tournament!! Thank you Aaron and Yingli for showing the juniors how it’s done! That was amazing!!!
Aaron:
Heh! No sweat!
Yingli:
It was my pleasure.
…
Ashen:
Don’t mind what the juniors said to you, Yingli.
Yingli:
Of course!
