The New Winds

Please conduct your match here

Mai bows to the Crab. She had considered wrestling with him before, but in front of so many people. She hoped no one would notice her blushed. She was bowing.

She ignores what the teacher spoke of. Favoring a looser, more responsive stance. She lets out a powerful yell, hoping to throw the Crab of his guard.

Strength 5

D2 Sumai Event: Intimidation/Perception Void: 7d10o10k6 39

Yotsuo similarly bows to the Mantis. Unlike her, he took Hida-sensei's words to heart and tried to emulate what he had stated.

At the same moment that she let out her shout, the Kuni let out one of his own as he postured in a firm stance.

The small girl's shout surprised him and made him wary. Her aggression was more than he had been expecting.

Mai braced herself, relying on her honor to stand up to the Kuni's shout.

D2 Sumai: Willpower Resist Void SoH: 8d10ro1o10k4+4 39

Even in his wariness, the Kuni hoped to catch Mai off guard by beginning on the offensive with haste. He moved in and took hold of her quickly, hoping to use a firmly planted foot behind her own to take her to the ground.

D2 EA, Sumai, Round 2, Jiujutsu / Stamina, Prodigy +1k0, Shout -1k0: 7d10o10k4 36

Mai watches him carefully and repels his assault. Albeit, she is unable to hold herself back as much as before.

D2 Sumai: Round 2 Damage (Keeping Low): 6d10o10k1 22

Keeping the 4.

The damage he was taking was not anywhere near able to slow him down, but he didn't mind. He rose once more and charged in for a third time, seeking to take her off her feet, but this latest effort was even more awkward than the previous ones. Likely thrown off a little due to his efforts being frustrated thus far.

D2 EA, Sumai, Round 3, Jiujutsu / Stamina, Prodigy +1k0, Shout -1k0: 7d10o10k4 30

Mai is also moving a little slower, but is still quick enough to catch the Crab. She does her best to stop from hurting him him too much. After he gets back up, she bows to him. "Kuni-san. Would you like me to heal your bruises?" She does her best to hide her concern that he may be upset by the lost.

D2 Sumai: Round 3 Damage (Keeping Low): 6d10o10k1 9

The Kuni bows in return. "Thank you for the match, Mai-san. I would not wish to burden the kami with such concerns. You were gentle enough in your throws that my wounds will heal naturally and won't impede me."

He smiles at her. "Congratulations on your fine display of skill. I still have much to learn it seems."

"Thank you. You were a tough opponent to beat." And he was. She's a bit surprised she managed. With the match ending, she went to meditate. It was difficult, but she managed.

D2 Sumai Meditation 30 TN: 8d10o10k4 35

He did not wish to interfere with her meditations so he left her to them as he prepared for the next event.
