Opportunity had presented itself. She hadn't thought that Gloria would have come to her on her own but she didn't mind that she had come to her on her own accord. It was even better for her this way to be able to put her in her place and make her regret ever thinking that she could go up against her and win.
"I must admire your courage or should I say foolishness though. I wonder if it is shits like bull Dick who gave you the confidence to defeat me." Tina mused and she heard as the other students laughed at her words. Dick stood to the side as he watched the fight play out. Tina might have thought that she had the upper hand for now but she was soon going to realize just how very wrong she was.
Gloria gritted her teeth as she stared tina down. "Keep Dick out of this and he didn't need to encourage me. I already knew that I could eat you." Gloria said to her. She knew that Tina was powerful but sometimes she often overestimated her power and she knew if she were to defeat her now it would be enough to finally shut her up.
She didn't like the fact that Tina brought Dick into thew matter and she felt a sense of anger come over her. It was time for her to cut the talk short and finally defeat tina. Without warning Gloria charged towards tina as she unleashed a wind blade.
She threw the blade, aiming for tina's neck as she hoped to break it but to her disdain tina was able to dodge it as she moved away from it. "That was good. But you are going to have to do better than that to defeat me." Tina informed her.
Tina closed her eyes then channeling her own magic as she unleashed a thick cloud of smoke that seemed to surround Gloria. It created a visual barrier for gloria which caused her to panic slightly. This meant that Tina had the advantage to strike at her from any angle an she wouldn't be able to see her attacks coming or at least dodge them because she didn't know where they were coming from.
Gloria was frantic as she turned around raising her fists in the air hoping to defend herself. What she hadn't anticipated was tina appearing behind her. Tina kicks Gloria behind the knees causing them to buckle as gloria falls onto her knees. The ground beneath her feels wet as she takes a moment to recollect her bearings. But a feeling of dread comes over her when she tries to move and realizes that she is stuck.
It was then that gloria realized that tina had created a cloud of clay beneath her feet causing her to be stuck in her spot and making it impossible for her to move smoothly. "Maybe I was getting ahead of myself when I challenged her to a fight." Gloria thought to herself. Tina had the upper hand and she was winning. Gloria shook her head as she reassured herself that she wouldn't let tina win so easily.
Tina stepped around her as she looked towards her with as grin on her face. "pathetic," she muttered and before Gloria could react, Tina drew her leg backwards before kicking Gloria sharply in thew stomach. Gloria groaned as she felt a low crack as her back was sent backwards.
Gloria could tell that she was losing and she felt a sense of anger come over her. She couldn't h\let Tina win and if she didn't act fast tina would, be able to defeat her. Without warning Gloria channeled her own mana as she felt a surge of energy flow through her. She channeled all of her mana in a last attempt to free herself as she unleashed a small tornado. The wind around tina began to build up as the air was twirled around her body before the large gust of wind forced tina backwards. The tornado was so powerful and the wind was so strong that it forced some of the students backwards as well. They all gasped in shock as they shook their heads and stumbled ack up to their feet.
Tina shook her head as she stood back to her feet with a look of anger on her face. With the sheer power of the tornado, Gloria was able to break free from the cloud of clay that she was trapped in. it cracked beneath her as she was able to break free from the place that she was trapped in.
Dick watched the scene in front of him with a passive look on his face. He could tell that gloria was powerful but he knew that she didn't stand a chance against tina. "She really is powerful. I will have to think more thoroughly about a proper plan for revenge and It will be much harder to take her down than it was to take down john." Gloria had used up all of her mana to create the small tornado and so it meant that she had none to defend herself against tinas. Meanwhile Tina still had her mana with her and she had barely gotten a scratch on herself.
"Do you still think that you can defeat me?' Tina mocked as she walked circles around her. Gloria was still firm on her feet. She was still able to take tina in hand to hand combat and would be able to hold up on her own for a while but without her mana she wouldn't be able to get much fatal damage done on Tina.
Dick had known that the chances of gloria winning were slim from the start but he had achieved what he had wanted even if the fight were to end right now. The purpose of the fight was so that he could tell just how strong tina was ands he had seen some of her tactics. It would help him with his own plans. If he wanted to take Tina down he would have to prepare himself properly.
"Hymen, show me their stamina and mana charts." Dick said internally.
[Gloria:
Stamina: 60%
Mana: 54%
Tina:
Stamina: 62%
Mana: 51%]
Dick could tell that the two of them had about the same amount of stamina and mana. But the chances of Gloria being able to get past Tina were still very slim. Tina was more skillful and divisive. She was already well aware of her weaknesses and new how to use her strengths to her advantage. Although physically the women may have appeared to be similar mentally they were very different. Tina had smarter tactics and magical skills that depend on intellect and experience that couldn't be taught in a short period of time.
Tina was also more knowledgeable in her magic field and so she knew how to channel her mana better. This was something that Dick was able to take note of and he could see that Tina had greater capabilities than Gloria did. The fight had shown him at least some of what she was capable of.
Gloria knew that she stood no chance against Tina but she didn't want to back down yet. She balled her hands up into fists and placed them protectively in front of her face. Tina looked almost amused and Gloria took the opportunity to try and punch her in the gut.
Tina was able to dodge the attack quickly as she punched Gloria in the stomach causing her to groan as she stumbled backwards. The crowd was quiet as they watched the fight play out. Gloria tried to ignore the pain of the hit as she landed two swift blows against Tina's left cheek. Tina's face shot to the side as the crowd groaned.
"I am done playing games." Tina said to herself as she grabbed Gloria's arm, twisting it backwards before using Gloria's arm to flip her over as she slammed Gloria's body against the hard concrete. The sound of the concrete cracking was heard ringing through the playground.
