Avatar Fight Club!!

[Orophin]

Oh no!

I missed two!

My internet has been down for a while, so I haven't been able to get on the site.

Both of these are, once again, amazing.

The fights are well planned out, and everyone can tell what is happening just because of how it is written.

All thumbs up!

[Teяa253]

NOTE TO ANYONE WANTING TO GUEST STAR:
PM me and we'll see if things will work out.
Again, thank you everyone for enjoying the story. As a reward, here is the next round. Sorry it took so long. You see, I had Avatar: The Burning Earth for Wii, and I had just exploited some glitches, right? and... you get the point. (If you want to know what the glitches in the game are I'll be glad to tell you)
But yeah, I'll take people's suggestions, particularly those who suggest existing characters. So yeah, the fight!

ROUND 11: TOPH VS. ZHAO
Confident about my last win, I calmly walked out onto the battlefield. I was hoping to be able to fight Sanaki, and I could tell from sensing my surroundings that that might be the case. There was earth for me, and then also fire. I was fighting a firebender, which most likely meant Zuko. I sat there waiting for something to happen. I belched loudly, but not as loud as Sanaki had. I said nothing.
“Toph’s competitor,” said 253, “is none other than Admiral Zhao, the same one that fought against Dre Yu 2 rounds ago. The match will begin shortly after he makes his appearance.”

I strode back onto the battlefield. Whoever had brought me back had done a good job. I knew that I shouldn’t have lost that last round against that Dre Yu fellow, but what’s past is past. I had to win against this stupid little blind girl. Then again, I’d much rather lose to her than be bested in firebending by that other blind girl. Of choosing loss between Toph and Sanaki, I would easily choose Toph. There would be more of an excuse as to why I lost.
“The battle may commence,” said 253, “fighters prepare!”
I didn’t need telling twice. I began launching fireballs at her left and right, but she was taking the defensive.

Unlike Zhao, I could have been told twice. As was my custom, I waited and listened, since I couldn't do much with my eyes. He was shooting fire at me aggressively. Sanaki had told me that blind benders were more observant of their enemies than ones who could see, since they looked at a person’s exterior, and judged them based off of that. She said that people underestimated her very often, and she would use that to her advantage. I could tell from his thought patterns that this Zhao guy was doing just that. I was calmly raising earth walls for defenses and dodging more straightforward attacks. I decided to briefly show off.
“Toph has monkey feet!” 253 exclaimed as I got a rock and latched onto it with my foot. The term ‘monkey feet’ simply meant that I was able to lift and carry objects with my bare feet. I had taught Sanaki that. We were actually pretty good friends, despite fight club rivalries. “And there goes the rock!” said 253 as I kicked it off.

I didn’t have time to avoid it, but I knew that that was not her finisher, ‘The Gut Crusher’. I decided to get closer to her, since she seemed to be exploiting our range difference to her advantage. I some forward, leaving streaks of flames across my path. I dashed right past her at a perpendicular angle, setting a wall of flame between her and me.
“What now, deluded one?” I asked, making fun of her blindness, and I knew it had set something off. She began getting more aggressive, and her defenses were lowering as a result. I was fast enough that I could avoid a lot of her attacks, but there were the occasional ones that would knock me down and hit me pretty bad. Oh well, such are the ways of the Avatar Fight Club—and my soon-to-be victory.

This guy was blinder than I was. He was blinded by the lust for power. Of course, I felt slightly hurt because of what he said about my blindness, but such things couldn’t be helped. After taking a huge fireball to the chest that knocked the wind out of me, I realized that I had let my guard down by being so aggressive. I back flipped back up, jumped up, and launched a fault line at him. This worked to an extent, but Zhao had other things in mind. He actually dodged enough attacks of mine that he got up right in my face and used a rather unorthodox move from him. He had slugged me right across the face with his bare fist—no firebending or anything.
“Whoa,” 253 exclaimed, “that was certainly unusual, but not unheard of. Toph’s not going to be looking too pretty after that.”

I knew that Mr. 253 was exaggerating—he always did; but still, I could feel blood running from my forehead into my eyes. It didn’t matter to me though, since he had seared my chest with his last fireball, and the feeling of blood by now was only too familiar.

I laughed as she began desperately throwing attacks at me, and I was calmly dodging—or so I liked to think. I began dashing around the field, but I was actually slower than I thought. I looked at her and saw that her eyes were bleeding. In reality, they weren’t; there was a trail of blood coming from 2 spots in a huge gash in her forehead that leaked into Toph’s useless eyes, giving her the impression that she was crying blood. This gave me a sense of further hope. I had practically secured my victory, and was not afraid to let her know about it.

“This guy was so delusional,” I thought to myself, sidestepping a fireball, “he actually thinks I’m crying and weak now. Still, the thought that I look like I’m crying blood was really cool in my opinion (which, of course, is the only opinion that matters), and this actually gave me some pep. I needed that. Deciding to taunt back, I got a huge rock, lifted it above my head with the superhuman strength I had while on the ground, and made a beckoning motion with my other hand.

“Wanna play?” she asked me, and I grinned. “Why, yes,” I said, “That would be FUN!” as I had shouted the last word, I launched a stream of fire from both of my hands. I hit her full-force with the blaze, but she didn’t waver. I was glad that was not my killing move. Toph was now blackened and sooty, but still standing and fighting. When was she going to quit? I decided to ask her that as I hit her again.
“I’ll tell you when,” I heard her say, knocking me down with her fault line, “NOW!” I was too slow to get back up. I saw the giant rock coming right towards my gut—the Gut Crusher. I was finished quickly and painlessly, and knew that I had suffered severe internal damage. My game for today was over.

I grinned as I heard his life force come to an abrupt halt. My rock had found its mark. I was badly wounded, but surprisingly, my feet were unharmed. He obviously had not known that I saw through my feet, for he had not tried to burn them. I felt lucky as I heard the announcer declare me the winner. I was beaten and bloody, but hey, I had won another round of Avatar Fight Club, setting me beside Sanaki. Speaking of Sanaki, I saw her taking Zhao’s body away. I said ‘hi’ before I was escorted away by some of the Fight Club staff. Just like the losers, the winners got escorted away after they were through glorifying in their victory, but instead of getting revived (or so I presumed) they (we) were simply restored. I shook off the staff members, telling them I wanted more glory-in-my-victory time. They consented and I grinned.

Toph and Sanaki are tied!?! What to do, what to do...
STANDINGS:
Ty Lee: 3-0
Sanaki: 2-0
Toph: 2-0

flamethrower said:

I can just imagine, the avatar characters in an underground fight ring surrounded by a cage and a roaring audience! how about Ozai vs. Aang? a sign of the real future battle!

I agree on Flamethrower's idea of Aang vs Ozai, but maybe that fight could be one of the last like a grand ending of fight club, and maybe in that fight they trash the stadium too, XD. It's just a thought, he he he.

[Bruce8331]

I reckon that fight was awesome!! I have another request......Ty Lee VS Toph!! Or maybe Ty Lee VS Sanaki. I'm just wandering if Ty Lee is unstoppable? so far she is.

One question, when will Iroh be fighting? Oh and another question, what if you added Jeong Jeong to the list, then make him fight Iroh? I'm serious, they're both great firebenders, except Iroh can use lightning.

[Orophin]

I loved this one.

Zhao thought he had the upper hand, but he can never win.

Zuko was 14, and still bet him in an Agni Kai!

Go Toph!

Now Toph and Sanaki need a rematch! And this time, it's to the death! No ties there!

I'm like Sokka in the audience of Earth Rumble VI, I want the bloody fight to the death!

[Teяa253]

hurray for me getting round 12 done!
Oh, and after this, I'll start making comments instead of waiting for every chapter.
Bruce8331: I think Iroh appears in round 15 or so. I'm not sure. as for Ty Lee being unstoppable, I have foreseen the future, and saw no end to her streak. Of course, I also saw me getting jumped while writing this story, and that never happened, so I can't confirm anything.
I had fun writing this chapter though.
@oriphin: you guessed it exactly. Round 13 is going to be Sanaki vs. Toph.
Till then, Katara vs. Ozai will have to do.

ROUND 12: KATARA VS. OZAI
Whatever they had done to me was incredible. I had died again but I was already back. I wondered who picked who fought and how. It was almost as if someone in a whole different world was controlling everything, including what we did and how we fought. Oh well. I looked around and saw fire alongside my water. My first thought was Sanaki, but Toph had thought the same thing and ended up with Zhao. Oh well; I knew that I could whip any firebender with the awesome might of sheer water, to which fire can not stand up to for more than 1.4 seconds, give or take a little. I stood confident, standing tall. My chest, which, 8 rounds earlier had had a massive gaping hole in it a la Sokka’s boomerang, was completely intact again, and showed no signs of being split open like it had. I suddenly glanced over at 253 as he made an announcement.
“Today, Katara will be facing another powerful and influential character: the father of Prince Zuko; enter Fire Lord Ozai!”
Luckily I was able to pick my jaw up off the ground before Ozai entered the scene. Like always, he was big and bad, mean and heartless. This was going to be one interesting fight.

“Who’s yo daddy?” I said, cracking a nasty grin, and cracking my knuckles. I was going to literally rip this kid apart. I ended up using an attack a split-second before 253 announced the beginning of the match, but luckily, no one important noticed. I was slow, but very powerful. I was the firebending master. Katara on the other hand, was fast and nimble, but I knew that she couldn’t take more than 4 or 5 of my blows if I used the right ones. I kept my high posture that signified my royalty, for it was instinct that drove me to do so, and it kept me calm. I didn’t need anger to fuel my bending—the fact that I was never happy did the trick. I began punching the air, sending massive fireballs after Katara, who was zipping around the arena like that little blind firebender usually did. However, unlike Sanaki, as I believe she was called, Katara was not attacking me. I sniggered menacingly as I began absorbing energy for a lightning attack. Water may beat fire, but lightning destroys water!

I noticed that he was going to try and shock me. I had overlooked that when I had had so much confidence about fighting a firebender, but I was still confident. After all, lightning was the higher element of fire, which meant it was harder to do. Water was obviously the basic form of waterbending (come on, you can’t get any more basic than that) so I’d have an easier time dominating him than he would dominating me. I saw him charging up his lightning attack, so I tried to intercept him. It worked and it didn’t. He took the blow, but had safely tucked away his energy previously to being hit. I sent him sprawling. When he got up, I had to admire the grace by which he did so, for it was a sign of veteran royalty. I decided to make things a little icy, and froze part of the floor. However, the same grace that Ozai carried with him when he got up was with him on my ice. He did not stumble, or even slip. He shot a quick fireball at part of my ice and melted it, and then stepped in it. I used this to my advantage. I quickly formed that water into a whip and grabbed his legs. He retaliated by shooting a blue fireball at the water, which quickly turned it to steam because of the intense heat. This guy was good, and everyone, including myself, knew it.

Katara was a clever one, but was not able to land a decent hit on me. My royal grace served me very well. After burning her water, I began launching fireballs at her. She began making defenses out of her water, which absorbed my fire surprisingly well. I didn’t want to use lightning just yet, for she would be expecting it. In fact, she did expect it. She had taken down her water shield and dove out of the way. However, all I had done was paused before launching yet another fireball with one hand. With my other hand, I threw my lightning bolt at her, right as she was recovering and bringing her shield back up. My hit was direct. It wasn’t as powerful as I had thought it was, but it had still done the job. Katara was knocked a good distance away, only a few feet from the edge. I then decided to play with her a little.

I was in agony. My water had conducted his electricity, and I had fallen into his trap—to an extent. I could feel electricity surging through my body, causing me great pain everywhere except my mouth, my hands, and my feet. These were or had been places where I had used waterbending, and I was starting to see the big picture. Quickly jumping up and avoiding a couple of Ozai’s fire whips, I conjured up some more water, and then realized that it was charged with electric energy. I quickly put this water aside for later use, and got some from one of the corners behind Ozai and hit him unexpectedly. He had obviously not expected the attack. Luckily, I was at the other of the two corners that had water; the other two had fire in them for Ozai’s use.

I understood that she wanted to introduce the use of the provided elements in this match, so I decided to concur, and began summoning fire from both corners, creating a massive wall of flame. I threw it at her, and saw her quickly throw up a water shield and something else. However, now, the fire obscured her from my view, but since she was in the corner, I knew that there was no way out unless she used powerful enough water to counter my fire.

I conjured up as much water as I could to cover my entire body, and by the time the wall of flames had passed over me, it had all been turned to steam. It became slightly hard to breathe, but Ozai and I were obscured from each other’s view by the steam. I figured now was the time to use me secret weapon.

From the steam there suddenly came a huge whip of water. It lashed me, and suddenly I felt a surge of lightning go through me. I had apparently electrified her water with my attack, and she was retaliating. It stunned me, and I could suddenly see her killing move, “the implosion” coming right at me. I was done for. Begin temporarily paralyzed, I could not resist the attack, and I was slowly crushed.

“This game’s winner is... Katara” I heard 253 announce as I sunk to me knees. That had taken all my energy, and now I was paying for it dearly. I could not move my arms. I saw that little blind firebender give me what I figured was a congratulatory grin on winning the match, and saw her and her waterbending friend go take Ozai away. I would not be lingering long on the field this time, for I was weakened. For now though, I figured I could bask in the moment, though I was lying facedown on the ground...

Be here for round 13. I'm going to try and work on it right now.
STANDINGS:
Ty Lee: 3-0

[Orophin]

Always love your fight scenes!

The different viewpoints allow us to see each characters feelings on whats happening.

*Applaudes*

[Teяa253]

Alrighty... it's really late again! but who cares? I finished the well-known fight, and am ready to post it. I had so much fun writing this chapter, that I'm actually going to do it again. So, sorry to spoil it for you.

Anyways, here you go!
ROUND 13: SANAKI VS. TOPH
I was back and ready to rumble. I gloried in the moment when the announcer shouted my name.
“Little Sanaki appears on the battlefield, and this fight will be remembered by both combatants!” 253 announced, “because today, this will be the battle that neither one saw. Sanaki Li Chan will be facing off against Toph Bei Fong: The Swindler vs. The Runaway!”
The crowds roared louder than ever. I would have been able to tell that I was fighting Toph, since I sensed that the earth was harder in the corners. I was pleased that he knew my old alias: “The Swindler”. I waited for Toph to make her appearance. This would be a heartbreaking fight, for we had become good friends over the Fight Club down time. Nonetheless, my thoughts were erased, and I was suddenly again in the mood to kill, even if it was Toph.

I stepped out onto the battlefield, and noticed that there was fire along with my earth. Further feeling told me that Sanaki was in the other corner. They were pitting the two blind girls against each other. We had so much in common, yet were so different. My thoughts were wiped clean when the lust to kill set in, and with 253’s announcement of the commencement of the match, we were at it. I put up some defenses, for I knew that Sanaki would be coming at me at absurdly high speeds. I was right. She began attacking every square inch of me she could get at, and she was shattering my defenses. I was quick enough to bring them back up before she could get at me, but I was weakening. I, however, knew her weakness. We both were small and weak, but she was even weaker than I was, especially since she was a firebender, and fire was not as durable as earth was. I also know how to ‘fully’ blind her. I was unable to do it, but I knew that there were more ways to confuse Sanaki than to render her completely blind.

I was aware that she knew my weakness, but I also knew hers. If I was able to cut off her access to the earth, I’d be in control. I knew that neither of us was very durable, and I had a lot more bending energy than she did, despite her having more pure brute strength. I was launching short, swift attacks left and right, dashing all over the battlefield. It was as if we were having a fist fight, because Toph was retaliating with rocks and earth of her own.

I suddenly pulled a surprise attack on Sanaki that knocked her down. I had hit the ground and nailed her in the chest with the just of earth that had come up. She was very light just like I was. She spiraled off, landing several feet away on her side. Without even using her hands, she jumped off the ground, where I briefly lost sight of her.

What I heard the announcer say was that she had done a triple back flip and landed on her hands. That was all I needed to know before I came at her again. My low attacks meant to knock her down were not working too well, since Sanaki’s reflexes were too fast. She was able to hit me a few times, but her attacks were best when linked together. She didn’t often use slow, powerful attacks, though she had demonstrated that she was indeed capable of doing so.

My method of hiding from Toph was to jump into the air, and launch a pillar of fire towards the ground to keep me up. Toph’s method of retaliation though, was to plunge underground. This was certainly an awkward battle—the Battle of the Blind Benders. One thing was certain: since I was still part of the Fight Club Staff to an extent, I was able to influence 253 to allow rematches. If Toph lost, I know she would want a rematch. I was the same way. However, I had other things on my mind right now, such as a mental note: “use your freaking firebending!” said a voice in my head, and I responded by sending waves of flames at Toph that I could tell had burned her. This, however, had not come without a price. This was one of my slower moves, and I had lagged my recovery time on accident. She had exploited my mistake by pummeling my legs with huge rocks. I heard my legs break again, so I fell onto my hands and knees. It was my shins which had broken, so I was well comfortable (as much as a kid could be) on my hands and knees.

I laughed as I saw Sanaki sink, and launched more rocks at her. She however, apparently was fast on her hands, because she had gotten into handstand position again, and had shot a low blow at me with her feet—even though they were in the air. She had burned my feet, so I was forced to my hands and knees as well. I could hear the crowds expressing wounds of disappointment, having to watch a battle where the 2 of us were fighting in crawling stance, but, like Sanaki, I proved them wrong. Both of us were so fast and skilled in this position, that they crowds loved it. Additionally, jumping around became a common trend, despite our injuries. I could feel Sanaki faltering though, and I was ready to use this as my time to strike.

I was unaware that I was in a bad situation until after the fact. I had just flipped back into handstand position and burned Toph again, when a huge rock smashed right into my face. As I was knocked into a corner, I felt my face. It was intact, but I had suffered brain damage, rendering me unable to fight. I awaited her finishing blow, since I was no longer able to move. The knock to my head had destroyed my motor skills. Soon enough, “The Gut Crusher” came to take my life, and I welcomed it with (figuratively) open arms.

I wasn’t able to stand, since Sanaki had burned me to quite an extreme in some places. Some of her fires were still blazing in places. However, I felt Sanaki’s life force diminish soon to nothing. I somehow maneuvered myself over to her lifeless body, the lust for killing no longer in me.
“You did well,” I whispered, “and I’m going to ask for a rematch after this.” I was now practically completely blind, since my hands had suffered burns as well, and even if I had wanted to, I couldn’t stand. It had been sort of a stroke of luck that had helped me win the match, but hey: a win is a win.
Unlike the others, I wanted a little alone time on the field, even after Sanaki’s body was taken away by her waterbending friend. There was no little blind firebender to take her away—she WAS the little blind firebender. Shortly after all had been said and done, I remained on the battlefield, contemplating my decision for a rematch. 253 had indeed approved of it, and told me what Sanaki had said about this fight and her viewpoint on a rematch.
“I guarantee she’ll accept,” 253 told me, “for had she won, she was going to ask for the same from you.”
“well,” I said, “you can’t win them all—not even me.”
Of course, there was Ty Lee to worry about, but until I had to fight her, I had little or no cares in the world right now...

Oh yeah! a rematch between these two is coming soon!
Ty Lee: 3-0
Toph: 3-0
Sanaki: 2-1
Mai: 1-0
Dre Yu: 1-0
Sokka: 1-1
Katara: 2-2
Iroh: 0-0
Azula: 0-1
Long Feng: 0-1
Aang: 0-1
Zuko: 0-2
Ozai: 0-2
Zhao: 0-2

So, whadya think?
~Katara~

[Orophin]

Awesome, as always!

This is one of your best battles yet!

Now Toph has to fight Ty Lee! To determine the current champion.

Be careful, one hit to the base of Tophs spine would disable her Bending, leaving her completely blind!

[Ilovethisshow]

Wow these are realy cool. nice work.

[Kapanto]

Well, the whole electric water thing is impossible, but interesting nonetheless!

I do love these things...go Tera! Someone has to bring down Ty Lee!

(P.S. in the Toph versus Zhao fight it says there is fire and that it is probably Katara, which is silly

[justafan]

sweet fight

[littlelouie11]

these fights are so awesome... toph over ty lee any day
