Chapter 33 - New Executives (part 5)

Daegun woke up on a mat, to the sound of someone hitting something. "argh" he clutched his head, he looked around, he saw that Jungo and Jinsun were leaned up against the wall while a pretty girl with short blue and pink hair in streaks. Cleaned up the cuts on their arms and faces, Daegun could see she was very pretty and had a sort of tomboyish charm.

She turned to look at him, "oh your up?" she grabbed something out of a black bag and tossed it to him. It was cold, -huh an ice pack?- , she touched her head, "for the bruises".

"ah thanks" he turned to the where all the sounds were coming from.

*thwap

*thwap

*boom!

Daegun's jaw dropped, as the bag swung at almost a 45 degree angle with just a simple boxing jab 1-2 with a hook for a follow up. "Is that Gyun?" -since when could he hit so hard? I knew he could fight is he beat the school head, but isn't that to much.-

"So you're his brother?" the girl said -so that's his name?- standing up, "Uh yeah" she was wearing athletic shorts and sports bra, Daeguns eye's began to deviate.

She didn't seem to notice as she stared at Gyun, "he's an absolute monster, speed, strength, he's an innate athlete.

"Yeah" Daegun had to agree, those punches had serious power behind them, he knew for sure if any of those punches separately hit him he would have a hard time staying conscious. He couldn't even imagine the full combination.

Gyun turned around looking for something after a short round of repeating the same combination.

-where is it?oh that's right I left it with the bike-. "Here you can use mine" she tossed a water bottle to Gyun, Gyun smiled -not what I was looking for but sure-.

He took a few sips before passing it back, "thanks er uh?"

"Solhee, Baek Solhee"

"Ah thanks Solhee, since my classes don't start until next week, and I was wanting to test some of the my skills. Do you know where I can find somebody to spar against?"

Solhee chuckled, "well you won't have much luck today a lot of our high level guys are out at a competition and I think the rest of the rest aren't really going to want to spar after seeing how hard you hit."

"Ahh is that so? That sucks"

Solhee reached into her bag pulling out 2 pairs of MMA gloves.

"Well I guess I can give you a quick friendly match but we should wear some headgear".

"Yeah, that sounds good"

2 minutes later in the octagon

"Ok Gyun let's see your skills, this spar is going to be MMA style alright? So grappling and striking is allowed, I'm sure you know the rest right?"

"Yeah yeah, I'm interested to see what my future Jiu-Jitsu teacher has to offer."

-I don't remember telling her my name. Did she read it off the sign up form?-

"Ok then, hey Gyun's brother set a timer for two minutes!"

"Sure" -Damn she's sexy, she's dominating too, and her voice- Daegun was fantasizing already.

Gyun stared at Daegun, -It's just sad-, Daeguns friends were also watching from the wall.

Gyun turned his focus back to Solhee, Daegun announced the start, "Fight!" In a street fighter announcer-esque voice.

Solhee shot forward, going for a take down at the start. Gyun lowered his guard to protect his legs, but she'd tricked him and instead countered with a heavy overhand.

Gyun was caught off guard but he dodged it smoothly, -I've been caught off guard many times, my already monstrous reaction time is almost nonexistent now after returning, even if you fool me with this level of speed you'll never touch me-

Gyun smoothly slipped all her punches as she threw a flurry of punches and kicks trying to push Gyun to the cage.

"Your fast, very fast" She said as she kept trying to find gaps in Gyun's defense.

"So are you" Gyun admitted she was pretty skilled, and the fake tackle at the beginning would've worked on anybody else.

-But she's nowhere near my level in striking, but there'd be no point in letting her tackle me just for her to get an advantage. No we can give her a handicap, though I'm only at the level of imitation I can restrict myself to the use of the basics of boxing.-

Gyun found an opening as Solhee through a punch and lowered her opposite hand, Gyun responded with as light a punch as he could manage while still not trying to make it blatantly obvious that he was holding back.

Still it rocked her as she retreated, a bit unsteady on her feet.

Solhee couldn't believe it, -holy shit! I almost fell for a moment, but he could have finished me just now. Is it because we're just sparring-

Gyun used the time to change stances switching his lead leg as his left leg was now in front. As Gyun took up a traditional boxing stance.

"Boxing?" Solhee stepped back as she wiped her nose which was bleeding slightly, despite Gyun hitting her on the cheek pad of the head gear.

-His stance is the most basic boxing stance, he seems to be at a high striking level yet he has such a basic stance? Well he hasn't used any martial arts yet, but still his boxing stance has some issues-

"We'll, boxing your stance isn't half bad but I've faced plenty of boxers."

She charged forward leading with a kick, Gyun caught it and kicked at her other leg to knock her on her back

But Solhee chucked, "Got you handsome"
