COMMENCE FIGHTING

That night had dawned, and festivities were in full swing. It had been decided that Yokobue and Kazu-no-Miya would be the select judges for the tournaments. Naramo had opened the event with a win over the pitiful Furei, who went down in less than thrity seconds from a combination of a spinning thrust kick followed with a back fist. Ieyasu and Togo had a rather boring fight which showed that Togo had no desire to win the tournament. Ieyasu fought conservatively, mainly sweep kicking his opponent to the mat. The fight had ended with an immortal man once both men had been worn down and exhausted. Ieyasu had walked away victorious, the first upset of the night. Few gamblers were smiling that night, all wishing they had been a little more loyal to Ieyasu. The next two fights had been interesting first was Sakaki vs. Hanga. The odds were stacked in Sakaki's favour. He stood in a pose similar to one of Musashi's favourites, which showed how much they had trained together. Hanga stood tall, leaving herself quite open, both waiting for the go ahead from the judges.
"COMMENCE FIGHTING" Shouted Yokobue from her chair towering over the crowd and the stage, and Sakaki pounces with a punch to hanga's face, covering both her nose and her jaw. He was obviously not going to give her any mercy just because she was female. She flew back a few meters and landed hard on her back.
"You're playing with the big boys now Hanga!" smirked Sakaki speaking just loud enough so that only Hangas would hear him.
"1... 2... 3..." Kazu-no-Miya had started the out count. "4... 5..." Sakaki raises his arms with clenched fists in victory to the crowd. "7..." Hanga stirred, then rolled onto her stomach and pushed herself to her knees, and slowly stood up on her shaky legs. Both her nose and her mouth were bleeding. She wiped her nose with her sleeve and spat the blood from her mouth.
"Restart the fight!" called Yokobue.
"I'm playing with the big boys am I? Lucky I'm a big girl then!" and with that Hanga charged towards Sakaki and unleashed a frenzy of punches to his mid-section, waited till he has stumbled back a few steps and jumped up as high as she could. Then she swung her hand down fiercely, connecting a shuto with all her might to the bridge of his neck. His eyes rolled into the back of his head, and he seemed to colapse in slow motion, making a loud thud as he hit the mat. She stood above him, knowing all to well he would get back up.
Before Kazu-no-Miya could even start the count he had sprung back to his feet. He stood tall, and with the aid of his hand on his neck, clicked it left, and then right. He then stormed over to Hanga and picked her up with no effort at all, carried her above his head to the corner of the stage and threw her across to the other corner. She landed on the back of her neck and her shoulder blades, and had been knocked out from the impact. He raised his arms again and screamed victory cries to the boo'ing crowd. He had never been a clean fighter, and this was just horrendous.
Kazu-no-Miya looked down at the battered Hanga. "There is no need to start the count, Hanga has been knocked out."
Yokobue stood up "I declare the victor to be Sakaki!"
