>Introduction & Summary: You are Katja Hartkern, Martial Arts Aspirant and Wanna-be Secret Agent but right now, you want to be anywhere but whever the hell your mind currently is as you're locked into an odd dream as a highschool girl "Just like one of my Animes!" as a certain friend in college would put it... Though in a highschool that seemingly takes every last cliche such a setting would have and twist it into something that would make you laugh if it really existed; A honest-to-god castle as the building itself, Ninjas running around in the Ventilation System... The Cherry on top of the Cake of Absurdity HAS to be reprisentations of Fiona Graves & Tsuyako Horikawa seemingly this "Academy's" delinquent students who ultimately took a shining to you.It's curious though how your heart;s beating at the pospect of fighting three Luchadore/Students (Complete with theme music accompying them wherever they go outside of classes) that the real-life you would scoff at before pounding them into the ground... Though once again, this ISN'T real life and EVERYTHING your body's telling you suggests that you don't want to fight these guys, though at the same time you feel as though you're set in stone, that you couldn't moveIt's a hell of a dream to have after a night of trying to wine & dine Jean-Claude Gabriel, CEO of "The Paragon Group" and the host of "The King of Fighters: Infinite Match" out of secrets regarding some of the shadier aspects of his business on behalf of Seth, Vanessa and the unnamed Agency they work for. Ultimately, you mostly got achance to pick the brain and get a look at the man that had, indirectly or not, made your life miserable for the ast three months... And while you understand the nature and overal psychology of his choices and business practices, it took all of your nerve and patience not to blow your cover and pound his charming face in...
>>31016391That said, Seth was impressed with you even getting the one piece of useful information out of him tonight: (That Jean had been strong-armed into building the Stadium that the Infinite Match's "Sweet 16" would be held in as well as the new Hoghway system that threatened the Kyokugen Dojo that you had [Foolishly, it now seems ike] vowed to protect and look after) and offered you a vhance to become a "Hired Consultant" (IE A Part-Time Agent like Ramon officially is).It was a tempting offer, though you had to partially decline until AFTER the "Infinite Match" ends before considering it, leading you home and in the dream you're currrently having...>Out-of-Katja Summary:Near the end of the date with Katja, Jean-Claude Gabriel had recieved word that Vice, one of his new secretaries, had been stabbed in China Town by an unknown assailant. Figuring that it could be the recalcitrant Bizuki Iijima, the players assumed the Role of Jean and tried to track Bizuki's whereabouts with the help of his "Other" Right-Hand Man, Kazunori Kazahaya. After learning that Vice would recover from her injuries with time, they had found and followed a trail of blood leading into a trap of-sorts in a back alley, two women that Bizuki had captured (And most definitely had her "Way" with) attacking the two of them. This would normally lead to a series of scoffs and guffaws on Jean & Kazunori's part, though it seems that Avery (The one that's still standing and trying to fight) is imbued with a dark magic, augmenting her abilities almost three-fold...>The Rules:http://pastebin.com/Dj9z4r1t>Previous Thread:http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/30871270/>Contact Information:https://twitter.com/WeaselThat>New Stats Page:http://pastebin.com/hTrgx6Hp

You start trying to do this by escewing your playing crads for a moment and luring her into throwing out a kick, only to grab her leg and sweep out her other foot, knocking her over and using your momentum to throw her away from you and into the wall.You then hop back once more, thinking up a plan as well as trying to figure out what kind of sealing spell you could use to try and stop Avery from advancing, or possibly even ridding her of Bizuki Iijima's influence as the sygils in Avery's eyes seem to glow ever-brighter in the dim light... Though strangely enough, she doesn't seem as impervious to your and Jean's attacks as she did before, leading you to think that you might be onto something."You sure you can handle this by yourself?" Jean asks as he backs up alnogside you, holding up his guard as you do the same."Yeah man; What kind of bodyguard would I be if I couldn't protect my only client?" you retort as you watch Avery slump down to the ground and slowly starts to get back up, that same murderous glare from before washing over her face.===>BATTLE START!===>Your Health: 92%>Jean Gabriel's Health: 77%>Avery's Health: 68%>Your Ki: 37%, 1 Bar of Ki>Jean's Ki: 55%, 1 Bar of Ki>Avery's Ki: MAX, 3 Bars of Ki===

>>31019174>>31019432>>31019477"Got any bright ideas then?" Jean asks while the two of you watch Avery do a few stretches, then see her assume a fighting stance that seems... "Off" to your eyes; Her movements suggests that Bizuki's trying to channel the spirit of a long-dead fighter ino Avery's body or something as whatever she's doing doesn't look like any kind of Akido you've ever seen..."One... But I'll need you to act as bait" you reply as Avery runs towards the two of you, Jean nodding as he breaks away from your right to try and lead Avery away from you... Though instead she goes straight towards you and lands a jumping, spinning back kick, nearly breaking your guard as you try to defend and counter it, though she seemingly knows that you'd try to counter-attack and hits you with a stiff forearm, knocking you down hard onto the ground.However, Jean steps in and lands a quick two-hit attack with his fist that knocks Avery back quite a bit, though she does a Ukemi to get back onto her feet and charges Gabriel again as you dust yourself off and check your pants pocket, finding that you've still got about 5 more ready-made Ofuda ready to use as a plan starts to hatch in your mind..."Hang on boss" you mumble, Avery too interested in Jean to pay you any mind as you grab your Ofuda and straighten them out, much like how you shuffle your deck of cards to "Ready" them before slicing and dicing, though the thought of using your Karnoffel-Inspired fighting style doesn't seem to come to mind as you want keep this woman alive (For once)...You take a breath, then dash towards her, placing an Ofuda on her back with a slap, then moving around her as you yell "C'mon Jean, lock her up!"Jean grunts as he tries to hold Avery's arms up in a "Full Nelson" hold, her power and the slightly red aura that had visibly glowed around her body fading fast as you slap another Ofuda on her forehead, followed by two more on her chest & abdomen as she drops down onto her knees.
>>31020598You wince in pain at the two kicks that she landed to your stomach, but try to shrug them off as that glow from earlier stops as she starts to cry a little, a few of the Ofuda starting to faintly glow as you squat down and politely ask her to "Hold out your tongue." She looks at you funny for a moment, then nods and does so, revealing an intricate pattern drawn on it with a pentagram in the center, still glowing a faint red as you click your tongue at the sight."Thought so" you mumble as you place the last Ofuda on her tongue, the ghost-like image of the seal starting to fade from her eyes and all five Ofuda slips starting to glow, a sound much like glass shattering ringing in your ears as whatever seal Bizuki had placed on her breaks."She must've really like you" you tell her before she sighs a contented sigh and passes out, Jean checking her pulse just to be sure that she's still alive."Her heartbeat's weak" he tells you, then asks "Would that one guy that's working on Vice be able to do anything about this girl here?""Maybe... But you'd have to pay for it; I only got her in on a favor" you reply, then tell her "C'mon, let's get these two out of here."Jean nods as he helps Avery's unconscious form back up, walking it back over to where the other girl was (Patty, the blonde that Bizuki had also kidnapped)... Only to find that she was gone, no sign of where she could be as you let out an annoyed sigh, Jean mumbling about how "The night seems to get better and better..."===>KO!

AMYou put your hands over your ears as the bombastic theme music of these three Luchadores walk into view, the music dying down as one of them seems to have a microphone in his hand."Yo yo yo, this Raymond Stereo and we ready to roll down" he says, a little bit of feedback on his mic along with some hissing. You hear one of the other guys (In a purple & Yellow mask) asks "So whatcha gonna do? Because we commin' for you!" as you close your eyes, thinking of the most ridiculously over-the top thing to say... But decide instead to just lay down a little honesty instead as you open your eyes, your confidence returning as nothing seems out of place from before you closed them."Well, I'dunno what my firends 'ere want to do, but I'm behind 'em a hudred percent." "Brunhilde" whispers something into "Nadeshiko's" ear, then has her repeat it for the Luchas benefits: "We'll fight you right here, right now.""Okay mang, it's cool" "Raymond" replies, then yells "ALRIGHT! WHO'S GONNA CALL THIS SUCKER!?"No one in the increasingly-large crowd seems to want to step up and officiate this developing match, though that changes when the crowd starts to part and the unmistakable form of "Blue Mary" Ryan cuts through, though she's dressed in one of the most scandalous outfits your've ever seen that makes her look like some kind of stripper than anything else (Her "Outfit" being little more than her normal top [Though somehow smaller], a pair of chaps-like jeans and a Red thong bikini bottom along with her usual boots and gloves)."I'll do it" she says, the Luchas and Brunhilde looking around and admiring her form, her eyes hidden behind a pair of sunglasses.You couldn't help but stare too, though you don't go all-out in oggling her frame as the Luchas or Brunhilde seemed to, Nadeshiko elbowing "Brun-San" and clearing her throat to keep her back into line...

Though the silence goes on for a little TOO long as Mary whips out a tazer and turns it on, asking "Because if there ISN'T a fight going on right here and now, I'm onna have to report your asses to detention and introduce y'all to my buddy Dr. Watts here.""Ve haven't formally discuzzed it" Brunhilde replies, her voice a little throatier than Fiona's to your ears (And also with an odd accent), but adds "But I'm in favour ov a traditional 3-on-3, no Tagging Alowed match.""Oh Come ON chica!? Live a little and fight in the ring for once huh?" Raymond asks, partly in jest but also to play to his and his cronies's strengths."Well, we COULD set a ring up out here and have your P.E. for today be a King's Rumble..." Mary muses, then asks "But if this is going down now, I'd like an Order select; If it isn't, then the sixof you are following me out to the gym to get this bad boy legitimate so it won't show up on your personal records.""Let it be known for the record that we are in favor of going to the gym" The tallest of the Luchadores tells Mary, his frame and voice sounding pretty similar to someone you've heard before... Though you snap back into focus when Nadeshiko & Brunhilde tell Mary that they're going to need a minute to decide what kind of fight they want to do, pulling you into a huddle slightly away from Mary and the Luchadores, out by a statue of three men looking out near the imposing principal's office, your surroundings suddenly transforming into a courtyard in the middle of the Academy with lush greenery and flowers all around you.
>>31023787"OK, we've got to deal with they're high-flying moves... Zat's vhy we vant to fight here, rather zan in the gymnasium" Brunhilde sternly says to get the discussion started, though you have to stiffle a chortle at how bad and fake heraccent sounds."I really don't care where this happens; I just want to fight these guys and get back at them for what they said about my mother" Nadeshiko replies as you ponder whther to chip in and voice your oppinion on this (If you even have one)...===>A.

I'll go firzt zen, the two ov you figure it out amongzt yourzelfse" as the three of your "Break" from the group huddle and walk back to Mary and the Luchadores as the crowd hasn't seemed to disperse yet; If anything, they've gotten larger and more restless since you huddled up."Felt like that took forever" you hear Mary mumble, then clear her throat and ask "OK, what's up?""We fight right here, right now..." Brunhilde tells her, then points to "Raymond Stereo" and yells "And I'LL be your opponent!" "You boys cool with this? It won't count for P.E. credits and if anything that's owned by the school gets damaged it's going ALL of your public records" Mary asks, her arms crossed and only seeming to show off her rather perky bosom.The Luchadores shrug, "Raymond" admitting "Fuck it mang, let's go already; I need to get to lunch..."Mary nods as you and Nadeshiko head off to the side, leaving some space for Brunhilde & Raymond to start as Mary yells "ROUND 1!

>>31034847>>31033896>>31033882>>31033823>>31033759>Updates Now Resume>You are now in control of Katja Hartkern's unconscious mind, which is now in control of Brunhilde/Fiona Graves.You stare down "Raymond Stereo" as Mary signals for the fight to resume with a crazy idea in your mind: You hop away from him at the start, dodging his front kick and slowly start to charge up your Ki Manually.Normally, such a tactic would sound completely suicidal to a "Punch first, Kick later" kind of fighter like you, but it's all part of plan you had thought up after watching him struggle to get back up after that first knock down; You want to COMPLETELY humiliate him with your "Unrestrained Desire" DM, though you know that you don't have enough Ki to channel through to make it powerful enough to KO him cleanly...Which is why you "Clash" with him after he tries to use a normal throw on you, breaking away from him but having a slight advantage as you "Stuff" him a standing uppercut, a little voice in your head screaming "Not Yet!" as you follow that uppercut with a spinning backfist, knocking him back and away from you and creating the breathing room you need to strat to charge up you Ki again.You close your eyes, your mind totally focused on creating and letting more Ki flow through your body as once again, Raymond has to struggle up after that hit, Mary giving him a slightly shorter "Standing 7" count as well as warning him that one more knock-down of that caliber would result in a TKO... Though curiously enough, you could almost feel like you could see and hear all of that inspite of the fact that you were focusing on something else as you open your eyes, a strange sense of calm on your mind as Raymond is little bit more cautious this time around.You grin mischievously as you can feel that even though you aren't directly attacking him, you've got the upper hand in this fight now as it feels like your Ki is simply bursting from out of your body...
>>31037392You rush towards him with an almost reckless abandon, your body language suggesting that you've got something to prove as you blast into him with a HARD-Hitting Dropkick, cannoning Raymond all the way back to the far left of this ersatz fighting stage the other students have formed, though you note that Ukemi's out of the attack and "Powers Up", a slightly golden aura surrounding his body.You laugh and "Power Up" yourself, your aura looking like the lightshow at an average European discotheque as Raymond runs towards you, then again almost immediately tries to run away...However, you know what he was plannning this time and NAIL him with "Unrestrained Desire", landing a near 30-Hit chain of uninterupted punches and kicks with the "Finishing" moves being an uppercut that launches both of you high in the air, though you hit him with a projectile shaped in the form of a Phoenix to finish him off.You almost float down to the ground after that, Raymond's body going ragdoll as he lands onto the ground with Mary yelling "K-O-!", then walking over to check his vitals.It's a tense moment for you, Nadeshiko & "Katherine" as all three could be facing jail time if he dies from his injuries, though you breath a sigh of relief when Mary declares you the winner of the first round. You smirk at that, then grab your coat back from Nadeshiko and flip it back on, your hat low over your eyes and the coat almost blowing off of your shoulders as you declare "My power is unrivaled, so sayeth Brunhilde!" while placing a foot on top of Raymond's back."Teams! Pleases select you order!" Mary yells as you head back over to Nadeshiko & Katherine(/Katja) while the other two Luchadores drag Raymond Stereo out of the way for the next round.===>KO!

Sure enough, you read them like oh-so-many textbooks as Nadeshiko raves "That was AWESOME! You really got him good after that one flip punches thing", sounding and looking more like the young schoolgirl she is rather than the "Sukeban" everyone calls her."How y'holdin' up mate? You need one of us to come in fer'ya?" Katherine asks as she pats you on the back, illiciting a cough from you as you try to clear your throat."I'm fine... I'll try to close thiz next one out and ve'll go from there, ya?" you reply, then give Nadeshiko a hug before walking back over to the center of the stage, Mary announcing the start of the second round as you stare down "Juan Cena", a rather muscular fellow with little more than a plain Purple & Yellow mask and matching shorts and shoes on..."ROUND 2!" Mary yells as you simply rotate your shoulders while Juan Cena grabs a microphone out of thin air and yelling "You can't see me!" in Spanish before throwing it back into the crowd and waving his hand across his face."READY? GO!" Mary yells as she steps back into the backround and the Second Round of a Possible Five begins, your mind trying to think of what you could do to try and take this guy down...===>Your Health: 88%>Juan Cena's Health: 100%>Your Ki: 15%, 1 Bar of Ki>Juan Cena's Ki: 40%, 2 Bars of Ki===

Mary yells, partly to interrupt you but mostly to keep the flow of theses fights going as this IS a school and there ARE supposed to be classes after this half-hour lunch-break...

>>31046570"Brunhilde Wins!" Mary adds as you kiss your biceps and walk back over to Nadeshiko & Katherine(/Katja) as no one seems to do much of anything, the third, slightly-familiar looking guy in a black trenchcoat and a "Faceless" mask wordlessly staring the three of you down...===>KO!

>>31046862>>31047023>>31046712>>31046787OK! I'm back from my commute and I'm currently looking at a TIE... Vote to break it Anons? Or possibly combine the two votes? Regardless, I have to take my dogs out for a quick walk before I can settle in and update for the rest of the night.
>>31048519>A.Because Brunhilde/Fiona Graves is one hell of a waifu... Also, would it be possible to share that "Super-Sized Fiona" photo you mentioned in >>31030815?
>>31048519Combine A and D. It IS Katja's dream, still.
Right... OK, I'm back again and ready for replies.>>31048720... Probably.>>31048832I'm tempted to just go with this for the sake of expediency, but I'll leave voting to go up for just a smidge longer (5-10 Minutes unless there's an influx of votes).>Pic Sorta-Related, but in-canon: A Young Leona sharing some quality time with her addoptive father, Heidern.
>>31048519>>31049863Combine A & D please; It's getting late and most of us Anons are waiting... Also, post that Super-Sized Fiona picture already!
>>31050533... Very Well. Pic Related: Bizuki Iijima's vision of the "Super-Sized" Fiona Graves that she wants to become.Also, appologies once more about the belated reply; I'm having to take care of quite a few more things around my house before I can get back to QM'ing.>>31048832>>31048720>>31047023>>31046862>>31046787>>31046712You walk over to Katherine & Nadeshiko and tell them that you're going to stay in to finish this one out, as you're seemingly bursting with energy as the third guy of "Los Vilanos" steps up to the center of the fighting stage, kicking the body of Juan Cena aside as the two of you stare each other down, a cool wind blowing into the courtyard as an ominous bell tolls somewhere far off into the distance...Mary breaks the mood somewhat by yelling "ROUND 3!", snapping your focus back onto the fight a little bit as you cross your arms, this unnamed "Faceless" Luchadore bowing and quietly mumbling "I'm not worthy of fighting a goddess of battle like yourself..." before shifting into a fairly "Closed" fighting stance, his back hunched over slightly.You shrug at his remarks and get back into the fight when Mary yells "READY? GO!" and the two back away from each other, neither one of you ready to make the first move as you're both more than capable of making the fist mistake made by either of you be your last...===>You Now assume control of "Katherine Hart" (AKA Katja Hartkern)>New Thread Theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnXV-dy06nk===You feel as though you're riding with Brunhilde as you watch from the sidelines, somebody strumming an electric guitar off in the background somewhere before a full-on band kicks in as Brunhilde runs up to smash the unnamed third opponent with a "Shoulder Tackle", though he deftly counters it and flips Brunhilde over with a "Gutwrench Suplex" while you try to think of where you might've seen his moves and mask before...
>>31051736Brunhilde doesn't recover right away and this other guy grabs and lifts her up off the ground like the others, though he grans her by the throat single-handedly, though Brunhilde beats the "Choke-Out" with a well-placed kick that transitions into a DDT to get her back on her feet as the "Faceless" Lucha gets up and blocks her next strike, counter-hitting back with an uppercut that reminds you of "The Man in Black" Andrew Draco that you had fought WAY back when at the Pao Pao Cafe 2...When you realize that it IS that man when he slices at Brunhilde with a blade-like projectile coming off of his hands, cutting her a little though she retaliates with a "Blow-Back" attack, knocking him away from her long enough for a quick "Power Up"... However, "Mr. X" (As the crowd starts to chant) Ukemis out of the attack and "Powers Up" himself, hlding back a little as he seems content to back away from Brunhilde and run out the clock, both of their powers starting to slowly fade while a deep pit in your stomach starts to form, a bad feeling starting to overwhelm your mind as the once sunny skies overhead start to darken...===>Brunhilde's Health: 59%>Mr. X's Health: 83%>Brunhilde's Ki: 0%, 1 Bar of Ki (Currently in "MAX MODE")>Mr. X's Ki: 0%, 2 Bars of Ki (Currently in "MAX MODE")===

>>31053065Kind of, though it can't kill high-defense Characters like Goro Daimon, Maxima, Raiden & Clark Steel...

However, you eventually gain the upper hand and get him to go down on one knee, Head-butting him to set up a German Suplex. From there, you grab and lift him up slightly to smash him in the head with a few closed-fist punches, standing him up slightly with each hit before stunning him long enough to hit him with a Powerbomb AND a Piledriver in succession, though you aren't even done yet...You grit your teeth and try to do the second, downright ridiculous part of the "Game Of Death", lifting Mr. X up into a Hanging "Brainbuster" Suplex, though you quickly side-slam him and move into a classic Figure-4 Leg Lock, Mr. X too stunned to try and fight back as you move him up into a quick "Surfboard Stretch", THEN move into a "Triangle Chokehold" to try and keep the pressure on as the crowd starts to really cheer and get into the fight, pushing you to finish this INSANE attack with pride...

>>31054780>>31054863>>31054984Thinking of nothing better to do, you start doing some basic stretches as Mary continues to count out Mr. X, mostly doing them out of boredom but also to try to get all of those niggling aches and pains in your body to dissappear...Eventually, Mary calls it a round by yelling "KO! BRUNHILDE WINS!" as you get mobbed by Nadeshiko & Katja, a few cheers going up at your impressive fighting display, though most of the students break for lunch as you could hear your stomach toss and turn a little at the lack of food in your gullet..."How ya' holdin' up mate?"

Secondly, assuming that this topic survives the night, Updates wll resume tomorrow at 8 AM PST, 11 AM EST.HOWEVER! Due to my work schedule starting to pic up, I will only be able to QM from 8 AM-2 PM PST, then break for up to three hours to start doing stuff around my house (Which is going to probably start becoming more common as days go by, as I have a LOT of things to do before I feel comfortable living in the "Crap Shack" I'm typing this from right now)... As a result, tomorrow's session might be the last one for quite a while before I can juggle my schedule around enough to continue my role as QM for this Quest.Regardless, G'night Y'all and see ya' around!

You hear Brunhilde tell Nadeshiko, spotting that she had brought her own lunch with her as she heads off to fufill "Brun-San's" request."That was a hell of fight" you tell Brunhilde, hoping that you'll actually get a chance to talk to her a little bit as she actually slips on the coat that had rested on her shoulders.She seems to shrug and replies "I'm captain of the Wrestling Club; Fights like zhat are no biggie for me", though she pauses and admits "That X guy was good though.""Yeah... I've seen him fight around town" you tell her, then slip out "He kinda scares me, honestly...""No need to be afraid of admitting that; It's better to acknowledge an equal zhan juzt bottle it away and put him up on a pedestal" she tells you as the line briskly moves forward,a MOUNTAIN of a Japanese Man behind the counter serving up Sushi with a guy that looks like Joe Higashi helping him out and putting out "Normal" Food...
>>31059396You shrug and take a tasty-looking burger, a can of Coke and a small salad while Brunhilde seemingly crams as much food as her plate could hold, packing it with equal parts of Sushi, Vegetables and sweets..."You eatin' for two or somethin'?" you joke as you follow her over to the small table Nadeshiko was sitting ait, barely enough space for all three of you to sit and eat as Nadeshiko cringes at the sight of what her lunch box reveals.She was brought one of those Japanese-styled “Obento” where there was a set meal normally with rice as the main and a few side dishes, though hers in particular features a carefully cut, heart-shaped small tenderloin steak, a miniature salad bar and over the message “Don't forget to eat your veggies! <3” written out with soy sauce over the rice (In Japanese Kanji script, no less).Her eyes "Twitch" a little as she mumbles "How.. Nice...!" before pecking at her food, Brunhilde seemingly channeling the valkyries of her namesake as she attacks her plate with the same intensity she had fought "Los Vilanos".You chuckle a little and gamely tell Nadeshiko "Wow, your mom must really love you...Or really hate you", trying to break the ice a little and hoping that you didn't strike a nerve with your quip.Nadeshiko seemingly sighs and accepts her meal, eating in silence as you feel bad about teasing her and tell her "I mean, I'd honestly kill for a meal like that, really..."Brunhilde stops you from saying anything more by telling you "Leave her be" in a whisper, leaving you to wonder what kind of life these two lead as you silently munch on your food, not even realizing that it was one of the best meals you've ever had until after you've finished it...Nadeshiko breaks the uneasy silence by looking over to you and saying "You and me, 1 Vs. 1 After school by the Football Field", her voice having an icy tone to it before she gets up and storms off to class...
>>31059774===>You Now return to the Waking World as Jean-Claude Gabriel>Date: Tuesday, May 22nd>Time of Day: 1:15 AMThe car ride to and from the hospital was fairly unneventful, though it was mainly from the uncomfortable silence between you and Kazunori Kazahaya, only the sound of the stolen car driving providing you with any kind of respite.Avery had thankfully had been cleared of any long-lasting injuries, though she had been kept for overnight observation... Though your thoughts about her get broken by Kazahaya asking "You sure you really want to go through with this boss?"You ponder his words for a moment, your destination drawing ever-closer as Kazahaya drives north, near to the tip of South Town National Park and up to the home of one Bizuki Iijima..."Do you know anyone else that could take care of her?" you ask, then bitterly add "And to think I could've avoided this if I was more forthright in telling her "No", though you say that more to yourself than Kazahaya."That's the thing man; We don't HAVE to take care of this shit tonight... Well, not by ourselves anyway" Kazahaya offers, then asks "Why not hire somebody to deal with this?"You hear him yawn as you ponder what to do, as while the night IS getting long, something deep within you doesn't want to let this go; You're compelled to settle this TONIGHT, once and for all before it could possibly backfire and destroy all of the hard work you had done to make your tournament appeal to big-name sponsors and host cities... After all, Bizuki Iijima is the closest thing to an "Old-School" KOF combatant that would show up at the end of a tournament and start wrecking stuff up, and you certainly can't have that this year... Right?===OK, this is going to be a Two-Part Voting Process. First, please vote to either:>1. Continue in the Real World as Jean-Claude Gabriel.OR>2.

>>31061320>>31061467I sadly have to commute right now, though an update will be on the way as soon as I get home (Should take around an Hour or so, maybe longer due to the incliment weather my town's currently experiencing)... However! Voting is currently 2-1 in favor of Option A and is open until I return home...
>>31061537 >A. Tell Kazunori that you want to keep looking for her, convinced that unless you find and kill her yourself tonight no one can...
>>31061000B. If Bizuki knows she's about to face death, she's gonna go all-out, and Jean and Kazu are frankly not enough for her if she does. The last time she lost, it was against a reminded-of-her-mortality-cum-thunder-god Katja and SHEN FUCKING WOO. A cornered beast fights the hardest, and Jean isn't going to handle that himself or with Kazu.
>>31061000>>31061000 >B. Tell him "Fuck it" and ask him to drive you back to "The Paragon Group's" headquarters down near China Town; You'll deal with this in the morning after a good night's sleep (Switch back to Katja's dream after this plays out)Seriously, this.

>>31063792>>31063229>>31061933>>31061439And Option B wins by a slim margin; Updates are now on the way...
>>31063900Did you die on us OP?
>>31065896No, but I DID lose electricity and Internet access for the last hour or so... Appologies for the delays that were out of my control Anons.>>31063792>>31063229>>31061933>>31061439You put a hand under your chin, mimicking the classic "The Thinker" pose as you ponder if you're REALLY ready to to end this andsend Bizuki Iijima to her whatever higher power she preaches to... And admit to yourself that you aren't; Shit, you were barely able to hold off a woman that under normal circumstances you could defeat with one hand tied to your back because of Bizuki's influence over her..."No" you think out loud, then quickly add "I'm done for the night if you are Kazunori."He glaces over at youo for a second, but doesn't say anything at first as he finds an unpaved "Turn Out" spot to pull off to the side of the road, then looks to you and says "Well? You want to go grab a drink or something?"You think of of something snarky to say, a part of your rather dark sense of humour showing up right now... Though you shake it off and tell him "Just drive me back to the office Kazunori; I'll take care of this and my clothes in the morning."He nods, then turns the car around in the opposite direction, driving back towards the offices of "The Paragon Group's" Nother American Headquarters as you lay your passenger seat back all the way, resting your eyes a little as you try to go to sleep... Though you don't as you get a little dizzy from Kazunori heaving this barge of a Lexus sedan around these winding roads, pulling your seat back up and waking up a little bit as the road straightens out, a full moon off to your right and giving you a perspective of just how dark the area surrounding the city of South Town can be... When you spot something up ahead, stopped in the middle of the road. "Is that..." you start to say, then wipe the crust from your eyes and focus on it a little. "Is that a school bus?"
>>31067498Kazunori tries to flash his high-beams to see if it is, though for some reason they don't work as an eerie feeling overcomes you, shivering a little as Kazunori drives both of you closer to it... When suddenly, the red lights and stop sign on the back of the bus come on.Whether it was out of fear, or whether it was the fact that you and Kazunori were riding in a virtually stolen vehicle and he wanted to put on a"Good Samaritan" act, Kazunori pulls to a stop behind the bus, both of you starting to freak out a little as you watch a little girl wearing a backpack get out, walk around the bus and down a driveway into the woods off to your right...You raise an eyebrow at this, as neither of you had seen another car or town for the last hour you've been out and around the northern fringes of South Town National Park... However, you don't say anything as the bus ahead starts to pull away, leading you on a slow cruise before it pulls into a seemingly-abandoned gas station."... What the hell was that?" you ask, Kazunori stone-faced and shaking his head as he picks up the pace a little bit, desperate to get back to civilization as the road twists and turns again, trees covering it a little bit more now as you can't see the moon and it's pitch black...You start to breathe in and out to calm yourself down, though that doesn't help when you hear Kazunori ask you "Hey, you smell that?" with disgust in his voice.As if on cue, a smell that could only be described as the most rancid, rotten meat smell EVER fills the car, both of you fighting your "Gag Reflex" as you ask ""Ugghh my GOD, what IS that!?"Kazunori tries to turn on the air conditioning that had been working since you two had "Borrowed" this car, though again it doesn't work as he rounds a tight, blind corner, his headlights revealing a rather grizly scene: Dozens of large, white bags hanging from the trees over the road, each one roughly the size and shape as if they were full of human bodies...
>>31067871Neither of you say anything as Kazunori innexplicably slows down to a crawl, almost as if he were counting the near 50 bags that were hanging in the trees for nearly 200 meters, the smell only intensifying as you silently think that Bizuki Iijima might have a hand in all of this... Well, at least the psychological terror tactics part, though knowing what she might do in her off-time might not offer much of an excuse for something like THIS.You don't voice that opinion (Or any other for the matter) though as Kazunori rounds another cormer, the smell almost magically vanishing as neither of you say anything until you see the lights of South Town off into the distance and Kazunori drives onto Interstate 670."So OK, yeah... You think Stonewater LLC. has a "Swords & Sorceries" division? Because I don't EVEN know what the fuck went on back there" you get off of your chest, Kazunori still "Stone-Faced" with his eyes wide as dinner plates as he turned off of the freeyway at the first exit and cut through the heart of the city, taking longer than the first time through as he tries to retrace his way through South Town itself."Uh, earth to Kazunori? Hello?" you ask, your paranoia starting to get the better of you as he gets back on the main expressway that leads to your offices, Kazunori pulling into the underground parking lot and shutting the car off before he starts to speak."I'dunno what's goin' on, I can't even begin to TELL YOU what's goin' on... But I think she was there" he says, your mind flashing back to the little girl in the backpack."Probably" you simply say as the CD player turns on and starts playing, illiciting "WTF-Faces" from both of you as the display reads "Track 99", sounding something like the music Kazunori had been playing much earlier in te night.Both of you unock the doors as Kazunori asks "You think she knew we were coming for her?", still staring at the CD player inside going off and playing music neither of you recognize...
>>31068378Just as you're about to make a darkly comic remark at how INSANE this all is, a loud "BANG!" could be heard echoing out through the parking garage, the lights going out and the CD player inside the Lexus the two of you had gotten out of shutting off.Once again, neither of you say anything as you suspect that Kazunori shat a brick and is simply standing there petrefied for about three minutes before the lights come back on..."I'm pretty sure she knows Kazunori" you tell him, though you do a "Double-Take" when you notice that the car in the next parking space over was now turned exactly 180 Degrees around from where it was parked when the two of you arrived..."I'm... Taking the rest of the night off; I'll see ya' in the morning" Kazunori Kazahaya quickly says as he starts to walk away casually, but then runs out of the parking garge the moment he spots the exit.You scratch your head, then recall that Andrew Draco would be the guy to have in a situation like this, as Kazunori was always a bit of a coward in the presence of the supernatural (Quite ironic considering his lineage)... Still, you casually get out your cellphone and call up Stonewater LLC, making arrangemets for "Round the 'Clock" Protection services and not going to bed until they arrive and are positioned outside of the door that leads to your private sleeping quarters upstairs next to your office...===>You now assume Direct Control of Katja Hartkern's Psyche>Time of Day: ??? AM===You sit at the lunch table and watch Brunhilde get up and chase after Nadeshiko, plading with her in a funny Japanese accent that you don't feeling like translating as you ponder what to do, the other students starting to leave the caffeteria...

>>31068897Changing to B. Talking to Nadeshiko won't get us anywhere right now.
>>31069011>>31069243Option B wins the vote and updates are on the way...
>>31069011>>31069243You briefly consider trailing Brunhilde to try and talk to Nadeshiko, but decide against it when you couldn't think of anything tangible to say. You do a few quick stretches after getting up out of your seat and lok around the room, the place seemingly deserted when it had been so lively before...You grab your book bag and take out your curiculum for today, not bothering with the map on the advice of that one guy at the head office and wander around for a little bit, looking around for somebody to talk to as you can feel a certain "Edge" to your movements, the feeling of being lost on your first day of school getting tempered by the sounds of Rain starting to fall outside, lashing up next to the windows.You just about give up hope when you spot a guy that looks like a younger Terry Bogard and ask him "'Scuse me mate, but I'm kinda lost; Do you know where class 42-F is?"He looks at you for a moment, then gets a smirk on his face before replying "Down the hall, first door on the right", then asks "This your first day here?""Yeah..." you forlornly reply, then ask "Is it always this crazy?""It's actually pretty normal today... No bloated parodies of Jesus trying to destroy humanity "So it can be saved", mo over-powered Wizards showing up to blast stuff to pieces..." He says before trailing off, then telling you "You better get going before they'll report you for being late.""Right... Thanks!" you tell him, running down the halls at a break-neck speed to find the classroom in no time, though you pause for a moment and look on in an odd mixture of shock, horror and an undeniable excitement at the class that's about to start in room behind the door in front of you."Sexual Education... Really?" you ask yourself, then quietly slip into the classroom almost unnoticed as you find that you're the last student to arrive, sitting down next to a VERY attractive woman that almost looks like a young Mai Shiranui...
>>31070608However, your thoughts get interrupted by a rather attractive male student off to your right asking "Hey there, what's a pretty lady like you doing in a place like this?"You intially think "The Fuck mate? What hole did this loser crawl out of and who even uses that line in real life?", though you hold your tongue and put on a fake smile, telling him "Me? Pretty? You 'avvin' a giggle Mate?"Before the guy could respond (And before you could see that he looked like a younger Shen Woo), a feminine voice out of nowhere yells "QUIET DOWN MONGRELS!"Everyone in the room sits at attention, though you take longer than everyone else asyou note that the voice had a hint of a european accent and was seemingly heavy with irritation and reluctance. Seconds later, a rather stylish woman with what looked like a riding crop at her side walked into view, her white jacket cut open to reveal her prominent, heaving breasts barely contained by a dark blue, strapless bra... Which inspires jaw drops and mild nosebleeds from some of the boys, along jealous moaning from some of the girls... "Whoa... Those're almost comically huge" you think to yourself as you watch her write the name "Elizabeth" onto the chalkboard behind you. "AND they're Gainax-ing... Awesome", though a part of the back of your mind can't quite figure out why your thoughts have turned to the sapphic at the mere sight of this woman."Good morning class" she says, some student in the back about to say good morning to her before she snaps her riding crop out and yells "SILENCE!"No one dares to speak after that as you wonder what' the HELL is up with this chick, though the silence breaks as she damn-near teleports over to the student that spoke up, knocks him into the air with an uppercut and then blasts him with a flash of bright, almost sparkling white light, knocking him straight out of the window behind him.
>>31071182She looks around and says "I do so loathe your incessant ramblings..." before headng back to the chalkboard and turning to the class, coldly stating "Listen closely class; There shall be no speaking, no movement or any form of free action... Not without my consent of course. Understood?"No one responds to her, though you think "Bit'o a bitch much? Oh well, one less wanker to deal with", again a part of your mind thinking about why you're attitude's changed all of a sudden...The woman in the jacket clears her throat and asks "Let me repeat myself: UNDERSTOOD?", with everyone i the classroom saying "Yes Ma'am!" in an almost creepy unision."Good... Now, on to introductions. My name is Elizabeth Blanctorche. My friends call me "Betty", but if I catch ANY of you saying that without my say-so I'll introduce you to my Shining Fingers" she says, writing out the rest of her name on the chalkboard in the still-fresh blood from her riding crop. "THAT'S why you will adress me as Madame Blanctorche. Understood?" Everyone in the classroom says "Yes Ma'am!" again, though it seems that Elizabeth wasn't happy with them all as she slams her heeled foot onto the floor, then asks " I didn't hear that correcly... UNDERSTOOD?"It took a bit for most of the students to get what she was trying to et them to say (Though you yourself had a basic idea); However, it seems as though Elizabeth wasn't the most patient woman around and stomps her foot onto the floor once more, a chorus of "Understood, Madame Blanctorthe!" ringing throughout the classroom.A Gallic smirk comes across her face she says "Right down to the capitals..." to herself, then clears her throat and adresses the class. "Good. Carrying on, here at Cliche Academy, I shall be your new homeroom teacher. But officially I teach Sexual Education."No one seems to be bothered by this, though you could see a girl in the back raise their hand and ask "Question... What's “Secks”?" in an impossibly cute voice.
>>31071629You let out a small groan as a part of you thinks "This is going to be a LONG day...", though you mischeiviously smirk and add "Maybe I just might be able to have fun here...">A. Keep going through Madame Blanctorthe's class; This shit is comedy GOLD!>B. Time-Skip through to the end of the day as you meet up with Nadeshiko & Brunhilde on the football field after school...>C.

>>31072487I would've thought unpowered Kula, but Goeniko works, too.
>>31071765>>31071944>>31072170You sit back in your chair as Madame Blanctorthe asks "Young lady, is that a SERIOUS question?"She looks around a little, then blushes and says "No..." before slumping into her seat, three frat-boy types laughing their heads off and yelling "Dude I fuckin' TOLD YOU that she'd do it!" and high-fiving each other...In any other classroom you'd probably get cross with all three of them and "Throw Down" with them right here and now, though they shut when Elizabeth stomps her foot back down onto the ground and yells "SILENCE!", though she seems to also be trying to hold her hand from glowing...She shakes her hand a little and clears her throat again, getting to the topic at hand for today's class: "Alright, today class we are going to be tackling a rather controversial subject to most, though I ask that you hold your preferences and beleiefs at the door as today, we shall learn of Homosexuality..."You take a breath and hold your guard up as you hadn't been expecting to hear that, your mind uneasy as Elizabeth explains "In the interest of fairness, I WANTED to have both an out and proud gay couple from BOTH sides of the equation, though strangely enough no boys answered the call... Too bad, as they WOULD'VE gotten a full teacher's Credit until the next Quarter."She gets an irritated look as you start to feel like you're sweating bullets as she further explains "As such, I WAS going to simply focus on Lesbianism today, though unforunately my demonstration partner isn't here...", then looks around the room a little and asks "Would anyone like to volunteer? Nothing physical is required, but I NEED someone to talk about their experiences to make this class actually MEAN something today..."None of the girls seem to be interested, partly out of the fact that most of them aren't gay though even the ones that are seem nervous, not quite ready to step out of that preverbial closet as you try to be as inconspicuous as possible...
>>31073569Madame Blanctorthe let's out an anoyed sigh as she explains "Keep in mind that if NO ONE steps up to volunteer, I'll give all of you failing grades for not actuallly doing anything in this class when you SHOULD be", her voice getting an ice-cold tone to it as she seems to mean business... Though once more no one seems to want to stand up and willingly volunteer."Is THIS the reality of this school? Is there NO ONE in this classroom that's even curious as to what goes on when "Playing for the Other Team?" Elizabeth asks, seemingly increduously before she adds "I'll state this again: If no one volunteers for this EVERYONE in this class is going to Detention after the day's done."You get VERY conflicted after hearing that, as while the thought of what "Detention" looks like at this school scares you, the temptation to sit back and deny yourself the chance to save the class's bacon because you just aren't comfortable doing or talking about something like this with a stranger in front of a sizable amount of students from your homeroom is damn strong....>A.

I don't know. Nothing's told me I'm bi. But nothing's told me I'm not, either."I'm not sure she'd outright come out, even in her own psyche, but at least forcibly bringing this stuff out into the open, especially all the wishy-washy shit that seems to be all Katja knows how to work with, makes it much easier to digest. Plus, "Elisabeth" may make for a decent soundboard.
>>31073992Building on this, the main issue with Katja coming out as bi, let alone coming out as anything, is that she has no concrete ground to base anything on.>"Girls appear receptive to me, and only recently are guys notably taking interest in me. I don't mind either form of attention."That's all she has. One shouldn't confuse friendship for attraction.

>>31077107>>31078698>>31074639You take a few breaths to try and calm yourself down, then slowly, almost timidly raise your hand just as Elizabeth was about to write-up every single student in the class for detetion.She looks over at you and says "See? Was that so hard?", then asks "Could you please get up and walk to the front of the room?"You close your eyes, your heart racing as take one last bretah, then get up and walk over to the chalkboard, feeling as though every set of eyes in the whole roomis watching you, judging you, mocking you behind your back as small, indecipherable voices filled with scorn swirl around your ears...Fortunately, Elizabeth's voice breaks through them as she asks "Could you give us a name to start?""Sure... I'm" you're about to say, but get interrupted by one of those Frat-Boys in theack row."/u/ is shit, yo' mamma is shit and faggots like you are the reason this board's gone straight to fucking hell" he yells, is buddies slapping him on the back giving him pointers on what to sayYou feel your blood pressure start to spike at these guys and are about to say something, though Elizabeth takes the words right out of your mouth as her hands start to glow, coldly stating "Young man, if say ONE. MORE. WORD I'll" before getting cut off again as the student gets back up and gives her a "Polish Salute"."Yuri's the cancer that's killing quests and go back to France and shove a White Flag up you're ass!" he says before hopping out the window that other student Elizabeth had dealt with, "Madame Blanctorthe" fuming as you wonder if anyone has anything more to say...Though secretly you breathe a sigh of relief when she throws up her hands in disgust and says "Screw it; Class's adjourned but none of you are getting any credits for today", most of the students rushing for the exits to get a chance to post about what had happened on "Facespace" or "Shitter"...
>>31080007Curiously enough, you stay behind long enough to hear her tell you "That was a brave gesture to stand up and take that kind of abuse.""Believe me Ma'am, I would've kicked his arse meself if he hadn't bolted like that" you reply, conviction in your words that she seems to like."Good to hear... Most of the foreign-exchange students just take it and hope that it'll stop, rather than try to stand up for what they believe in" She replies, then quietly asks "But just to be clear and completely off-the-record..."You look at her and say ""I'm bisexual...I think", then think it over for a little bit and add "I don't know... I mean, nothing's told me I'm bi... But nothing's told me I'm NOT, either.""You haven't really dated much, have you?" she asks, then again adds "Or is it something else?"You shrug and tell her "Girls appear receptive to me, and only recently are guys notably taking interest in me... I don't mind either form of attention.""I See" Elizabeth says, jotting something down on a clipboard that seemed to almost magically appear before she says to you "OK, if you'll excuse me... I have go deal with that little piss-ant" as she walks out of the room.You check your phone to see that you've still got almost 20 Minutes until your next class and ponder how you're going to pass that time...

>>31081677>>31081520>>31081238>>31081072>>31080825>>31080977>>31080676You dust your shoulders off for some reason before you walk out the door, a sinking feeling that something important was supposed to happen in that class as you grab your book bag and look over your schedule for today...When suddenly, you heard and felt a loud explosion somewhere nearby, followed by a long, drawn-out scream of joy as a body flies through the air and lands a couple feet away from you. You shriek in surprised terror as you hop away from the point of impact, but then rushover to check up on who it might've been/"Oi! You awright?" you ask as you squat down and look at the body, finding that it's a relatively youthfull, yet strong and muscular man with long brown hair wearing glasses and a army helmet. Curiously enough, his clothes (An army jacket and a Black shirt that says" I was in Sparrow Ops for seven years. If you see me running, try to keep up!", with cameo pants and black combat-ready boots) are miracuously uncharred despite the expolsion, the name tag on the jacket reading "Pvt. Joker".You lend him a hand and try to shake his shoulder, though he speals up and tells you "No worries, I'm fine... Oh and don't touch me; I got an M-80 wired right there."Your eyes widen at that as you wordlessly back away, then watch him get up as if nothing had happened and hear him yell "HEY BLITZ!! PUT 100 MORE POUNDS OF DYNAMITE AND TWO PACKS OF C-4 IN THE MIX!!!" somewhere behind you.You peak over "Joker's" shoulder and see another guy, equally muscular with short, Blonde hair wearing sunglasses, a hat that you could swear you've seen before and clothing that suggests that he's and army corps engineer (Or something)... He's standing next to a charred piece of ground and surveying it before he looks up and yells back "Alright, hang on!", then then scribbles something on a piece of paper before walking over to you and his buddy.
>>31082560"Alright, Joker, so we've got at least 1,000 pounds of explosives, what do you think? almost there?" he asks, his voice sounding sorta-familiar to you as your eyes flash back to a previous dream, staring down an enourmous blast from a laser cannon... However, "Joker" snaps you out of it for a second as he says "Yeah, seems like it... Hey Blitz, Remember Katherine?" he asks as you try to fight the urge to flee from these demolition men, explosions always having been fairly unpleasant experiences for you."Oh yeah! Hey, Katherine, remember us?" "Blitz" asks as you get a "Blank" look on your face for some reason.You tell them "Err... No, not really" and try to get by them, though that "Blitz" guy stops you from advancing."It's us, Blitz and Joker! The new kids who disapperared for a while?" he asks as you can feel the clock ticking away until your next class...You decide to humor these guys instead of outright fighting them or anything as you tell them a white lie. "Oh yeah, You guys! Yeah, I remember now... Where the bloody 'ell WERE you two?""Well, we went on an adventure and brought back some weird shit... Like this bag" Blitz tells you, then pulls out an almost "Old-Timey" sack made out of leather. "Now, it looks like an ordinary sack right? However..."Your eyes somehow widen even more as you watch "Blitz" pull out a Broadsword that looks almost like the one you had seen in Jean-Claude Gabriel's office out of the bag. "It can hold an obscene amount of stuff... I call it a "Bag Of Holding.""And I found a backpack with the same properties; We call it a "Handy Haversack" "Joker" beams, then smiles as he adds " I even found a Portable Hole!"He pulls out a thin, circlular object, then stretches it and flings it at a wall, your jaw dropping as you can see THROUGH the wall and into the girl's locker room...You force your blood to NOT spurt out of your nose and ask "That's cool and all, but what are you guys doing? I heard an explosion..."
>>31082865"Oh, we're just playing a game of "Bombing Run"; Wanna Play?" "Joker" asks as you ki"Oh, come ON! it's not like you need to be the one being launched! In fact, I figured some of the wrestling fans would enjoy the variant which is like the match type with the coffin, but instead of a coffin, there's a specially made trash can lid we made that doesn't disentigrate when a large amount of explosives go off underneath it" he explains, then adds "The idea is to throw your opponent on, strap him in, then launch him."You stand in stunned silence at the antics these two are descirbing, your mind feeling like it got turned to mush... Though that doesn't stop "Blitz" from explaining what they were doing when his buddy "Joker" crash-landed through the roof and landed next to you."The version we play is the competitive version in which the people playing use joker and position the lid and adjust the explosives to get him the closest to a bullseye a certain amount of yards away..." he says, though he stops and says "Screw it Paul, she ain't interested.""Yeah, I figured as much... C'mon Vince, Let's go find the Colonel's Daughter and see if she's down for a round?" Paul says as the two of them leave you be, scratching your head for a moment before going out to history class.>A.

He MIGHT show up in this quest later on, if that's what you're asking...>>31083725>>31085074The rest of the day passed by fairly quickly, History being an absolute bore and Philosophy practically being "Phoned In" as the teacher had basically outlined a certain topic to be brought up and talked about amongst yourselves as he took care of some phone calls that made you suspect he was either a day-trader or a drug dealer outside of his job at the school.Finally, the bell rang and you were relieved that day was done, though you were almost immediately mobbed by students asking you to join up in after-school clubs of an almost limitless variety, including some that seemed better off at the Z-Games than at a school (Rock-Climbing? "Base-Jumping?") while others ranged from the mundane (Book Club, Horticulture Club Etc. Etc.) to the downright bizarre (Including an offshoot from the "Engineering & Sciences Lab" to build a "High-Powered Racing Sportscar" that stuck out in your mind)... You didn't join any of them as you made your way out to the Academy's football field, finding that it was mostly deserted as the day began to fade away, night begging to fall almost comically early as you spot Nadeshiko & Brunhilde wrestling on the turf under the rising full moon light... Though your eyes widen when you note that they weren't "Wrestling" in a conventional sense as you put a hand up over your mouth to try and cover your jaw from dropping.Fortunately, they didn't take their clothes off and spot you watching them, half-hartedly trying to make it look like they're really trying to fight each other as you walk over to them.You can't think of anything to really say at first as Nadeshiko gets up first, Brunhilde following her and tucking her torn & ripped jacket up over her buldging torso as best as she could, your eyes wandering slightly to take in her heaving bosom...
>>31085569A part of your mind wonders "How does she even keep those thing covered half the time?", though Nadeshiko snaps you out of your revelry as she clears her throat."You truly are a brave woman to come here... Are you ready to fight me? Here and now over honor and prie?" She asks, a slightly "Haughty" tone to her voice.>A.

>>31086580>>31086460>>31086385>>31086092You look at her and start to say "Listen... If it's about what I said at lunch, I really didn't mean to", but get cut off by Nadeshiko yelling something at you in a dialect of Japanese that you can't understand.You hold up your guard, expecting her to lash out and attack you, but Brunhilde steps in and whispers something in her ear, then looks over to you and says "You really meant that, ya?""Yes! I wouldn't try to hurt you, or make fun of you if I had known it would upset you" you reply, Nadeshiko looking like she's going to cry as you offer a hand to her.She not only takes it, but grans and hugs you tight, the power of her grip curiously strong as she seems like she's trying to hug the life out of you rather than make it a "tender" embrace... You asp for air for a second, Nadeshiko using that as her cue to lay-off her vice-like grip and looks up at you, her eyes suggesting that she had wanted something more than just a hug...You peek over her shoulder to look at Brunhilde for a second, who nods as you close your eyes and look to give this oh-so-familiar woman a kiss... Which is when you wake up in your bed at "The Imperial Hotel", making out with and hugging a pillow that's close-enough in size to mistake it for being Yamato Nadeshiko's Torso, your crotch feeling slightlly damp...You let out an annoyed sigh at your luck not even holding out long enough to fantasize what it would be like to kiss another woman and grumble "Fuck me, I need to get LAID" before checking the time on your alarm clock, finding that despite your late night you're up almost half an hour earlier than usual (7:35 AM), the light from the early morning sun starting to fill the room as you had left the door open for some reason...

You do a few bits and pieces of your routine to get your body to start flexing, then REALLY take the time complete your full "Warm-Up" Routine just as the alarm clock goes off and you could hear some politician drone on about a frankly ridiculous campaign plan called "Save the Sperm".You hop into the sower after hearing that, taking a longer one than normal as you think through your week and the dream you had last night, most of it all a blur... Though you get an undenaible feeling that somehow, you NEED to take care of your seemingly amorous urges sooner or later, as you can still think about the stand-in for Tuyako Horikawa in your dream, how amazing even she looked and how you wanted to see where that dream could've went.Even now, you feel kind of embarrassed thinking about that as you turn the shower head off and dry yourself, slipping into a pink, frilly bathrobe and warm, fuzzy bunny slippers (Both of them not actually yours, either) as you head out to the kitchen and ponder what you had planned for today... Which you fortunately remember, as you see a note written on a piece of the hotel's stationary in your handwriting say "Gonna go out with Yuri & King at Noon; Be there early".You look at the clock and figure that you have at least three hours to get some work in yourself, then chastise your mind for thinking of a "Dirty" way to say something that normally wouldn't have those kind of connotations at all... Which is when you think that it might be a good idea to use up this pent-up sexual frustration to work out and get back into the "Swing" of things before "The Infinite Match" Begins...

And amazingly, it's working for you today; You run nearly 7 Miles in 30 Minutes, a personal best for sure and you don't even feel tired, though you take a few minutes to do a proper set of stretches to make sure you don't cramp up the next day.You head back up stairs after you're done and grab a bottle of water while checking for any new messages on your cellphone. After finding that the only one was a text from Yuri Sakazaki reminding you of your commitments to going out shopping with them later today, you head back down to "The Dungeon" as you seemingly want to call it, your blood flowing and your mind and body finally at ease after being away from this for so long...

>>31093317>>31093614And a unique "Write-In" Vote wins the poll; Updates are pending as I type this out...>New Thread Theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHdpyvayAcw
>>31093733>>31093614>>31093317You take a look around the gym and feel something odd inside of you: Nothing seems to be floating your boat right now as you feel like today's the day you need to step up your game and get into fighting shape. You almost say to yourself that "Today's the day I'm gonna kill myself in this gym", though you darkly think that might actually come true if you train TOO hard this morning...Still, you eschew your normal routine and try something a little bit different: You head over to the weight "Tree", grab a pair of dumbells and then walk over to the low bench you normally use to do sit-ups on. However, you stand in front of it and hold your hands out to your sides, then place your right leg out and rest it on the bench itself, then slowly step down from it, testing your balance a little.You then do a few more of these so-called "Step-Ups" at a slow pace, finding that your legs don't have as much balance as you're used to, though for someone who doesn't usually do these kinds of exercises you aren't half bad... Which is when you start to do try and do them as fast as you could, REALLY feeling the strain after about the 100th one (50th on your left Leg) and stop to take a breath and check the time, noting that it's just after 9 AM (As you had brought your cellphone down with you).You set the weights down for a minute as you start to feel sweat forming on the top of your head, but not enough to really get it to stream down your face or anything as you go to try another workout that you had oly occasionally done back at the Kyokugen Dojo, though you HAD just started to work on it when you had gottten expelled... You put that thought out of your mind as you get down into a squat position, you hands on the floor holding your dumbells (At about half-body weight, as you couldn't seem to find any heavier ones to use) as you slowly kick your feet back, putting your body into a position used as a start for push-ups...
>>31093317>>31093614The best part is that body weight workouts can be done literally anywhere at any time, and full-body workouts are the most recommended form of workout, since you should be exercising everything instead of "focusing" on different regions. Best part is that with such a comprehensive routine, you can do EVERYTHING in, at most, half an hour.
>>31094074When they say "body weight," they don't mean weights that combine to your total body weight. They mean using literally your body's weight for the training. That's much of the appeal of body weight exercises: no equipment required.Still, at least Katja's being thorough.
>>31094179She's trying to increase the resistance by using dumbells on the Burpees & Step-Ups, as she hadn't had the chance to use any back at the Dojo when she fist started learning how to do them.>>31094074However, you move your feet back to a squat position and then jump up into the air, completing a "Burpee" as it's named in the fitness comunity, then repeat the process around 100 or so times, slowly building speed and confidence but also battling a fair amount of fatigue, as a part of you thinks that you could've done this exercise BEFORE the "Step-Ups" and be fine, though that's all water under the bridge as you finish up and pause for a few minutes, noting that your set of 100 took little less than 25 Minutes to complete after towling offand checking your phone...Still, Inspite of your sweat drenchong your clothes and your breath heavy in the air, a part of you wants to keep going and push yourself HARD before you have to leave soon...>A.

>>31094305>>31094373>>31094487You look over to the pool and think about taking a relaxing swim, or maybe even looking around for a jump rope that you could use, but instead decide to do one more set of both of the exercises you just go done with.You go to look for a weight bar to balance on your back before you start to do the second round of "Step-Ups", remembering a technique you had read about online back when your "Down Time" at the dojo became an all-consuming obsession to look for different ways to make yourself stronger and better your body image. You only put around half of the weight you were using before, working with nearly 1.4 of your total body weight as you start with your left leg out first, then shift over to your right as curiously enough, this second set of Steps-Ups seem to breeze by, though you start to feel your body ache in pain a little after you finish up and set the bar and weights back to where they belong.It's a pain you're all-too familair with though as you can almost feel comforted that you're really starting to hustle yourself in your training today, though you don't use any weights on your second set of "Burpees", instead focusing on trying to do as many as you can as fast as you could, your body rythmically going through the motions as you start to get dizzy from the "Head-Rush" you feel every time you jump up onto the air and fall back down.You do around six more reps than you had earlier in around the same amount of time it took you to complete the first set, your cellphone's internal clock telling you that it's just before 10 AM (9:55, to be exact) and you can hear your sto,ach start to rumble like a distant thunder as you grab yor things and head upstairs.

Though strangely enough you only feel a slightly hollow ache that spreads throughout your body, highlighting your empty stomach even more."Thank god for Kyokugenryuu, because anyone else would be SCREAMIN' right now" you sigh, then ponder what to do about your breakfast, as you DO have places to go and people to meet fairly soon.>A, See if you can scrounge up something to make a nice, hearty breakfast with, as you feel like you should wind down a little from your workout.>B. Hop into the shower, get dressed and walk downstairs to the cafe in "The Imperial's" lobby; You NEED food right now and don't want to have to spend time waiting after it while it's getting made.>C.

You keep stretching until that tingling sensation goes away, your body feeling almost as limbre as Ryo Sakazaki's when you had done stretches with him down in Meadow's Park... Though you cringe a little at what you'll feel like tomorrow."Fuck t, just enjoy the day while you can" you think to yourself as you look around the kitchen for stuff you could make for a small breakfast, deciding on a simple meal of pancakes with the last of your fresh fruit and some weird substitute for maple syrup you found ("Agave" it read on the label, though it tasted good enough to use).You took about half an hour to eat, though you were interrupted by the sound of your phone buzzing on the breakfast table. You check to see who it is and spot that it's from the motorcycle shop virtually down the street from you and answer it."Hello?""Hey... Sorry about putting you on hold about the parts for your bike" David Weseel Jr. on the other end says, sounding a bit tired but enthusiastic as he explains "I was out of town for the weekend on business.""Yeah, I heard that from a friend of mine" you tell him, then ask "So can I get my bike in soon?""You can get it in today right now, or wait until tomorrow afternoon if you want" Dave replies, but adds " But after that I'll be booked solid for a straight week.""Right..." you tell him, slowly thinking over what you should do as you feel like it's just about time to go... Though you don't commit to his offer straight away and ask "How long should it take to get everything done on it?"
>>31099108"About two business days, maybe three at the most" he says, then reminds you that "You didn't get anything too hard to put on... Oh yeah, and we'll changing your oil for free if you take it in today; Some guy took his business elsewhere and refunded his coupon.">A. Tell Dave that you'll call him back, then call up Yuri or King to see if they could get you a ride or something before you decide to take your bike in.>B. Tell Dave that you'll be at his place as soon as you can, then take your bike in for it's scheduled parts fitment and take a cab (Or something) over to "La Illusion".>C. Tell Dave that you'll take your bike in tomorrow and head out to "La Illusion" now, rather than try to deal with early "Lunch Rush" traffic.>D. Something Else... ("Write-In" Vote)
>>31099205 >C. Tell Dave that you'll take your bike in tomorrow and head out to "La Illusion" now, rather than try to deal with early "Lunch Rush" traffic.
>>31099205>C.Even though Dave's fairly friendly, he DOES have ties to Kazunori Kazahaya & Andy Draco... It would be best to try and stay comfortably away from him IMHO.
>>31099205 >C. Tell Dave that you'll take your bike in tomorrow and head out to "La Illusion" now, rather than try to deal with early "Lunch Rush" traffic.This seems like the best choice honestly...
>>31099205>>C. Tell Dave that you'll take your bike in tomorrow and head out to "La Illusion" now, rather than try to deal with early "Lunch Rush" traffic.After a shower, obviously. I imagine we rather reek at current.
>>31099369>>31099510>>31099676>>31099650Option c wins in a unanimous decision; Updates are on the way.
>>31099369>>31099510>>31099650>>31099676"That's awfully nice of you, but I'll have to hold off until tomorrow; I have to head out today and need my bike" you reply, starting to smell your body's natural odor."OK, could you bring it in at around lunchtime tomorrow?" Dave asks, the sound of a compressor whining in the background.You tell him "Sure" and then hang up, putting your dishes away and heading straight to your room to take a quick shower. After drying yourself off, you pick out some failrly plain clothes and slip into your "Kangaroo Suit" Leathers, putting on your boots and gloves on last before going to get your wallet, cellphone and helmet.You then head down to the hotel lobby, telling the clerk to hold all of your calls before walking down to the parking garage, your beloved Triumph Thruxton parked in the same spot out near the walkway. You straddle it and start the engine up, letting it idle for a few minutes before you back out and ride around, getting a feel for riding for the first few miles, the dense traffic not doing anything to help ease you mind...However, the ride out to "La Illusion" goes off without a hitch, feeling fairly confident in your skills riding again as you ride in and park out front behind a sedan that seems to be waiting for somebody.You immediately shut the engine off and then move your bike out into the back alley behind the building, leaning the bike up against the nearest wall and making a note to tell King's assistants to watch over your bike as you walk up to the front door, slipping off your helmet and almost immediately getting hugged by Yuri Sakazaki, wearing her hair down and in a slightly pale floral dress."Hey sunshine... Been a while huh?" you smile as you hug her back."Too long!" She replies, then asks "How have you been?""Eh, same old same old I guess... Had a hell of a week though" you tell her, then ask "Where's King?"
>>31100452"Right here" she says, walking from near the back of the room and shaking your hand. "How're you holding up?""Good!" you instantly reply, then ask "Is the car outside for us?""Yeah, Robert hired a driver for us" Yuri replies as King looks you over a little, a slightly dissaproving look on her face."Wot? I had to ride in today and I couldn't find my coat and pants" you explain to her.She rolls your eyes and says "Well, you're actually a little early... I have to go over a few things with Sally & Liz.">A. Shrug and tell her that you don't mind waiting; You want to catch up with Yuri anyway...>B. Ask if you could help out with Sally & Elisabeth, as you want to try and get back to your place fairly quickly.>C. Nod and tell them that you'll be waiting outside until King's finished and ready to go.>D. Something Else... ("Write-In" Vote)>E. Assume the Role of...? ("Write-In" Vote to determine who to gain direct control of in a possible "Side-Story")

>>31101185>>31101334>>31101185Appologies for the long delay; Had issues with traffic and "rubber-neckers"... Option A wins and updates are pending.
>>31102951Even more appologies Anons & Tiger; The place that I was Wi-Fi'ing at had a small "Flash Fire" after their router overheated. While nothing was damaged, theydecided to close the place down for the day, which meant that I had to drive all the way back to my house to get a stable connection...TL;DR The QM Curse Inttensified today and updates are pending.
