Kimura smashed straight into the wall as he fell to the floor, Hei'Kahra rubbed her cheek as she began to walk across the bridge. While she made her way across, Kimura's finger twitched a bit as he clenched his hand and slowly began to get up. She noticed him get up as she was a little surprised herself.
He took the full brunt of the added force…how is he still standing…?
She proceeded with caution as Kimura spat out a tooth to the side as he buckled a bit. W-What the hell's going on…where…where am I…? Kimura looked around seeing her coming towards him as he remembered where he was at.
Right…The fight…but how did we break through that barrier…?
Questions filled his brain as he felt his legs shaking, running out of options as she got closer and closer. C'mon think…what did…What… He looked at his hands as he remembered the punch he connected.
Right…That punch really shook me up… Kimura looked up as he clenched his hand hard and smacked his leg, the shaking stopping momentarily as Kimura stood up firmly. He then ran towards her as he tackled her but her grip on the ropes stopped him from pushing her back onto the bridge.
"HAAAH!!" Kimura shouted as he pushed harder.
Hei'Kahra felt the force as her hands were slipping a bit back as she lets go and puts her hand in a double axe handle, slamming her fists onto my spine as Kimura dove her into the bridge, breaking the rope holding it up as they went barreling down. She kept smashing his back in with punches and elbows as she gripped tightly, storing up kinetic energy with every punch she threw.
They went at breakneck speed as they crashed straight onto the ground. The mountains begin to rumble again as they start to go down and make it back into a desolate wasteland.
"Hey, look it's finally letting us see!"
"About damn time…"
"What's going on between those two…"
A couple of people from the other academy began bantering as the mountains fully retracted into the ground. The dust was forced back as Kimura and Hei'Kahra were exchanging blows, taking hits from each other as they built kinetic energy off each other.
This…This can't be happening…! He-He can't have the same thing as me!!
Just…last a bit more…
Both fought with extreme force as she slips under his punch as she slams a hook into his left side so hard it made some others look away in pain, Kimura felt the punch as he felt four of his ribs break on impact. Kimura gritted his teeth hard as he threw a hook diagonally, smashing his fist onto the topside of her head, fracturing her skull.
They continued exchanging punches as bones were breaking left right and center. After two minutes of a straight slugfest, they eventually slowed down as they were overexerting themselves, Kimura couldn't keep his arms up as he was bleeding from the nose as he had a cut over his right brow, bleeding into his eye. Hei'Kahra could barely stand as she keeps a wide stance to even keep herself up, her legs shaking as she breathes heavily.
Kimura's eyes were dialing in and out as he was barley able to keep consciousness, his plan backfired on him. I…I can barely keep up…I don't think I'll be able to keep going… Kimura was reaching his limit as he winces in pain a bit as he felt the sudden weight his body sustained from the fight, his body felt heavier than it has ever before.
N…Now's my…chance…
Hei'Kahra saw this opportunity as she looked at her legs, her legs refusing to move as she grits her teeth. No…No…! B-Body…don't let me down now…! I'm so close…! I'm… Hei'Kahra however lets out a gasp of air. …so…close… Hei'Kahra suddenly goes limp as her knees hit the floor first as she fell face first into the ground. Kimura watched as he fell to a knee breathing heavily as the crowd suddenly cheered with some other students running over.
"WHAT AN AMAZING FIRST FIGHT IN MANY CYCLES!! NOTHING'S BEEN MORE EXERILATING THAN THAT FIGHT!!" The Announcer shouts into the microphone.
"Kimura!!!"
Korvos and Suharu came running over towards him as Naoki was walking over to him. They helped him onto his feet as he breathed heavily. "What a fight! We'll take it from here." Suharu told Kimura as Kimura toned out any noise he heard, but as they were talking, they turned their attention to Kimura with confusion and concern on their faces.
"Kimura? Hey Kimura, are you okay?"
"Kimmie? You listening?"
"Hey!"
Kimura then passed out as Naoki jumped a bit, however Korvos wasn't too surprised. "Hey, let's take him to the medical tent." Korvos suggested as Naoki's never really had anyone pass out on him before.
"O-Oh…Alright." Naoki stuttered a bit, looking over at Suharu.
"H-Hey how about you take over? I'm not good with these things." Naoki made up a small excuse.
"Huh? Oh, I guess." Suharu then took Kimuras arm and wrapped it behind her neck.
Korvos and Suharu then carried Kimura towards the medical tents as Naoki made his way back to the rest of them. Ayameko sighed as Erudis watched Korvos and Suharu carry Kimura off, meanwhile Tomoyo had finally woken up from her nap.
"Man, that was a great nap…"
"That's my line." Naoki sat down on the other side of the bench.
"What did I miss bro?" Tomoyo said stretching.
"A whole fight." Naoki responded.
"Oh? Who was it?" Tomoyo was a bit intrigued to find out.
"it was-" Naoki was cut off by Ayameko, "-It was Kimura and a Dingo named Hei'Kahra."
"Woah woah…" Tomoyo waved her hands a bit, "What's with the harsh words Ms. Depresso."
"What did you call me…" Ayameko turned her head slightly, hearing the word "Ms. Depresso".
"Calm down…jeez…" Tomoyo sighed.
"Hmph…" Ayameko looked over at the battlefield with her arms crossed.
Naoki, being oblivious to nearly everything, only picked up on key info he thought was useful. However, they would go on to watch the next couple of matches alongside the others. Meanwhile, Kimura was at the medical tent, unconscious yet alive despite his injuries.
