Tournament of Glory - Orenji vs Kim

As Kimono made her way to the stage, the announcer calling her by her genuine name, those who had the set list packets would look up curiously and with an eye cocked high as they anticipated the highly wanted and extremely dangerous terrorist who'd been on a rampage recently across the galaxy. Instead, contrary to what the policemen with their hands on their service weapons thought, the woman who walked into view was not the pink haired monster demon with a taste for human flesh, but instead someone completely different. As the crowd would begin to boo at Kimono, the voices got quiet when they saw not the person they had expected to see, but rather a younger girl of similar shape, but different build and appearance.
Kimono had disguised herself for these fights, taking the look and shape of her younger sister Yukata, rubbing the back of her blonde head nervously as she tried her best to play the part as effectively as possible. Waving to the crowd with a big smile, the piercing green eyes of her face not too dissimilar to the wanted posters for Kimono, but it was obvious to anyone in the crowd that she was a different person.

"N-No I'm not Kimmy! It's a common mistake, she's one of the most famous of my family. I'm another Lamellar, by the name of Yukata. I'm Kimono's little sister! You can put the pitch forks down, I'm not as bad as my sister!" She would say eagerly in her higher pitched, cutesy voice. As she made it to her side of the combat arena, her smaller, thinner frame coated in a simple off-the-shoulder shirt and pleated miniskirt, thigh high socks and combat boots. Finally, from her big open-toothed grin was visible the large vampire teeth inside of her mouth, exposing her supposedly vampiric nature. It was a wildly different appearance from that on the mind of the humans and other species present who knew of the wanted criminal this girl claimed to be related to. What came as a surprise, however, was the similar powers and ability. "Now, even if we aren't the same, I am still her sister. What she can do, so can I... So, uh, let's play nice and not destroy too much of the arena, okay Mister Orenji?" Kim's tone shifted about a bit, sounding both innocent and yet also assertive in her statements, making it clear she was wiling to throw down hard for the fight. "Though... I feel kinda bad fighting someone who's disabled..."

"Oh, don't worry, I'm prepared. Let's make this a fun ma-" Kim would try to retort, smiling a fake, but seemingly authentic smile, only to be surprised by the sudden appearance of the orange blast coming from the tip of the man's cane! It would have been a surprise moment for her, had she not been preparing something of a response herself, and with a swift motion of her hands, Kimono would drag forward a strong breathe of Hutong Mist before herself, trying to form a wall around herself to avoid the incoming damage of the attack. It wasn't the most effective defense, the blast overpowering the woman's shield of mist and hitting her bluntly in the thigh just missing the knee itself, the girl's face reeling from a smile to a more egregious hiss, clearly angered by the impact. As she did, she would take a far more aggressive stance directly afterwards, preparing to return fire with a volley of her own.

"Alright, yeah, that was my bad I guess. Let's get a bit more serious then." She would assert, throwing herself forward at an intense speed feinting a punch at Orenji's head, only for a Hutong Mist limb to explode forward from her side and attempt to punch the alien in his stomach as hard as possible, the woman never removing her eyes from Orenji's own. "We can't rely on these weapons forever eh?"

Seeing the strike connect and watching the man tumble back did make Kimono feel a bit better about her situation at hand, however she had to admit that this felt off. The first beam attack from Orenji was something of pretty high tier, and judging from his odd amalgam of limbs he posed about his body from various species that Kim recognized partials of, it was likely that he had something hidden about his abilities that she wasn't privvy to quite this moment. Either way, she needed to take heed and make sure not to overly press her luck.

"That's a pretty weird look you've got there, sir" Kim's mouth moved, the voice of Yukata exiting her lips in it's pressed, risen tone. "Can't say I've quite met any alien like you. Goes to show there really is a whole wide universe out there with all sorts of odd creatures to find or meet." As she would say this, the physical appearance of Yukata would disappear from view in a lightning second, her rising with a raised fist before appearing through the veil just beside Orenji attempting to punch down towards his head with an actual punch, a smile creeping across the lips of the woman as she got into the fight. The poking vampire teeth appearing just on the outside of her lips as she smirked dragging across the skin of her lips drawing just a hint of blood with it. "I'm sure you must be so strong to make it this long to get to Earth. Let's see how far we can push this!"

If her punch would prove successful, Kim would step back from Orenji's original position while popping her neck audibly, taking a very aggressive kickboxing stance, her footing placed just to allow for a quick movement of her feet or hands to deflect any incoming strikes, or if necessary, return fire with heavy handed punches and kicks should she be hit by the man's attacks back towards her.

"Come on Mister Orenji, you've gotta have something unique to show off. Be the animal you are inside, that's how us vampires fight~"

The species of this man was yet to be known it seemed, someone screaming from the crowd made it extremely difficult to hear the man speak, but it was obvious from the way that he spoke that he came from a lower species it seemed. There was nothing wrong with that, she felt, Earthlings are no different for the most part. Kimono was a special operations soldier simply due to her inherent access to Ki and Magic, and while the government recognized the issues revolving around the curse of the Hutong Mist, they allowed her to play her part. The regular soldiers though, they were just as much cannon fodder. Incapable of deflecting incoming attacks, weak and frail as all lesser species are. Kimono had sympathies for the man due to this. She could recognize the strength in becoming better than your species is known for.

However, the man seemed to expect the incoming teleportation and punch towards him, his weird tentacle-like appendage deflecting her assault as he threw himself a short distance away from her. She landed softly on the arena floor, the visage of Yukata's vampiric self wiping her lips and smearing the blood across her chin and cheek. "Clever-" She would respond to the man, both at his assertion of his taking power as well as the skillful maneuvering around her attack. That was when the noticeably Namekian arm reeled forward towards the woman and grappled into her ankle, the fingers gripping around the skillfully covered hardlight of the Hutong Mist limbs she used. His fingers might feel a hot, almost scorching heat of the Hutong Mist as the display covering her leg faded for but a moment to reveal the concealed magically formed legs below, before shifting back out of view as the false appearance of Yukata took shape once more.

By the time Kimono had been dragged towards Orenji, she could see the claw reaching out towards her. Its intentions obvious, she did not want the carapace even remotely touching her neck. As she thought, she'd push her hand towards the man and channel as much of her energy as she could through her body. Her blood pumped heavily through her veins as the pink mist crawled out from her pores, under her fingernails, and before her in her grasp formed the perfectly constructed form of Kimono's notorious Hutong weaponry. Specifically, she had in her palms a semi-automatic handgun engraved with depictions of demonic symbology and writing long forgotten. She would point the weapon directly at Orenji's face, the mist inside of her projectile flowing explosively, before the ringing echo of a gunshot would ring out as she opened fire on Orenji. Her finger fanned the trigger rapidly, dumping the entirety of the magazine into the direction of the man before she could get too close to him, firing off a total of eleven hutong mist produced cartridges. With any luck, this would not only get the man to drop her, but to take a decent amount of damage in the process. "-Did I give you permission to touch me?"

Her attack on the alien seemed to work wonders more than she initially anticipated, which proved to be a major surprise for Kimono. As she shot into the man's body, the rounds impacting into his chest with a quickness Orenji must not have been expecting. The location of the impact wasn't enough to kill, at least for standard humanoids and hell she had made sure of that as to not be disqualified, but even she knew getting shot would have hurt to all ends. She'd been shot numerous times before, if this alien was as strong mentally as he was physically he wouldn't be in the hospital for too long.

As she watched him fly back from the impact and hit the out of bounds, landing on his back against the floor, Kim just stood there quietly as the crowd became utterly silent. It was true that outside weapons had been mostly banned from the fight, Kimono remembered the agreement she had to make to join the fight under the guise of her sister, even the crowd seemed at a loss as to what precisely went down. One moment they were engaged in a fist fight, and the next she had a firearm and shot the other opponent with it. This had to be a blatant misuse of the rules, breaking the very hold this tournament had on things such as this. Right?

"Well, uh, looks like I win I guess?" The voice of Yukata was audible through Kim's lips as she held the gun in the air, opening her palm and showing everyone how it disappeared into the pink cloud of smoke around her body, proving it was a magical or Ki produced item. "He was a toughie with all of his Ki blasts so I felt like I should do the same. I guess he just wasn't expecting a magical mist gun, heh." With the revelation, the crowd watching would raise from their seats in a loud, screaming fervor of excitement and mixed anger, some pissed off that she had won due to bets while others were hyped by the obvious show of force in the ring. It was clear to everyone that these fights were something to be inspired by, and these close call combats would be something to track onto dearly. "That was a close one too, he had be on the ropes... If he knew I was going to shoot him with that magical blast then I'm sure he'd have been able to turn the tide and beat me. Crazy the types of aliens you meet by total happenstance... Maybe one day we will meet again outside of the ring and I can learn more about that weird stealing bodyparts idea... Maybe." The voice of Kim would say to no one, wandering to her side of the stage to exit, hopping down from the arena still disguised as Yukata while walking to the green room after being declared the victor of this round. Now, all she had to do was prepare for the next fight and hope it wasn't something too difficult. Orenji already gave her a run for her money, anyone else will definitely prove a difficult combatant indeed.

"Let's see who's next on my ass kicking list."
