Avatar Fight Club!!

[Orophin]

Oooh, good job portraying the cold logic of Long Fengs mind.

Aang made a mistake when he moved too close to Long Feng, not what I would have done...

But that's why he lost! He should have been more like me!

Now we have to get Zhao, Ozai, Aang or Zuko to beat Ty Lee! Lol, like anyone could beat Ty Lee!

(P.S. How do the corners contain air? Just seems funny to me. I mean, is there a mini tornado or something?)

8/10, that's right, I'm rating the matches.

[Kapanto]

I am sure that all the corners contain air

Anyway, I still wanna see a waterbender versus airbender fight!

GO AVATAR FIGHT CLUB!

[Bruce8331]

The fight with Aang and Feng Long was awesome, though I was surprised to see Aang lose.
But it is true that Aang is, oh what's the word, ignorant about this fighting style, making Feng Long a better fighter.
I also like Feng Long's instant killing move "The Wall of Pain."

8/10 I agree on Orophin's opinion on the rating.

[justafan]

rateing fights, wow, not doing that, i say its good

[littlelouie11]

as exciting as it always has been

[Teяa253]

whew! sorry for the delay, all. You may have heard that I lost computer privilages for a time. Anyways, I'm finished with that for a bit, so I'll do a little bit of posting now, shan't I?

ROUND 18: TOPH VS. AZULA
I strode out onto the battlefield again with calm and surety. It seemed that Katara, Sanaki, and I were the ones always getting picked and pitted against other people. I wondered why it was always us. Sanaki had said that she figured it was because of her awesomeness. I had laughed. Now that I was back on the battlefield though, I simply decided to wait for 253 to announce the name of my next opponent—my next victim.
“And, fighting against Toph Bei Fong today,” said 253, “we have Fire Nation Princess Azula!” crowds cheered, but I noticed that my cheers had been louder. I laughed at this fact, and realized that this was the obvious explanation of the fire and lightning in two of the corners.

I glided out onto the battlefield with my typical grace and beauty. So they had decided to pit me against one of the blind girls, did they? “Oh well,” I thought, “They’d learn not to ever do that again.” Once they found the remains of Toph, that is.
“The battle may commence!” I heard 253 shout, and that was my sign. I knew from past experiences (and from watching her fight in previous matches) that Toph wasn’t going to strike me first, so I decided to pick up some electrical energy from the nearby corner. I redirected it from one hand into the other, and then glided over towards Toph. She still had not moved. She was simply standing there, facing in my general direction. Surprisingly, her eyes seemed locked upon me. Now let me tell you, being who I am, I’m not one to have many fears; but looking into a pair of piercing blind eyes is not something that anyone can feel easy about doing. You could ask anyone about the matter. I stood there, energy in hand, awaiting Toph’s move.

I knew what she was waiting for, but I wasn’t going to budge. I could feel where Azula was standing, and so I made my eyes follow her. I could sense that she didn’t like it. I edged around the arena, not taking my awareness factor away from her in the slightest. Suddenly, my predictions came true, and she attacked. I grounded most of her lightning with a huge wall of earth, but it was so powerful that it ended up penetrating my wall and basting me off my feet. I landed spread-eagled on my back. I quickly put my palm to the ground, so I could see what Azula was doing. I couldn’t locate her. She had to be jumping. I suddenly felt a wave of heat, and flipped out of its way just in time. This was where that battle began.

I began rapidly punching fireballs towards her. I was doing it faster than I was used to, since someone said that Sanaki made me look slow. One thing that I hated having hurt was my own pride. For a blind girl, she was pretty fast. I wanted though, to be able to fight Sanaki next, since I wanted to see how easily I could outpace her. I will admit though, that Toph was pretty skilled. She was nothing compared to me of course, since she kept me on my feet, but didn’t hit me. I skillfully wove around the two corners that had lightning in them, so I was on opposite ends of the battlefield at all times. While I passed them, I picked up a little electrical energy each time, waiting my fell blow that would be inflicted upon Toph Bei Fong once I was ready.

This time, I was a little more aware of the jumping electrical currents that Azula was absorbing. I figured that it was time for me to penetrate her nearly negligible defense that most firebenders (except Sanaki) had. I caught Azula off guard with a fistful of rock, and then stomped the ground in front of her, which stunned her for a split second. I used this time to sink my hands into the earth and absorb energy. When she came back, I stopped thinking and did what my first instincts told me to: get out of the way—she’s going to attack you. I was right. I quickly shot underground and reappeared a split-second later farther away from where Azula was (and where I originally was). However, her reflexes were very fast as well, for she had redirected her attack as quickly as I had avoided it. It wasn’t as powerful as it would have been, since a little of her energy had gone into the ground, but it was considerable enough that I had to earthbend a platform out of the edge of the arena to keep from plummeting into its endless abyss. Azula had me dancing now, but since I’m Toph Bei Fong, I figured I was good at her little dance.

Toph’s dance was actually really weird. I had a witty remark that I was going to say that would have mocked her being blind, but I saved it. I couldn’t get distracted from what I was doing, for Toph was notorious for coming in out of nowhere and catching you off guard. That’s what Sanaki did to Zuko when they had fought, and I didn’t want something similar happening to me. I noticed that she was digging her hands into the ground very often, and throwing small rocks at me. I couldn’t figure out what this meant. If this was earthbending though, I was so glad to be a firebender, as not to have to get so much energy for such feeble moves.

Little did Azula know, but every time I sunk my hands into the earth, I was gaining energy. I was throwing the small rocks at her just to get her to think that I was doing that to attack. From what I sensed, it was working. Of course, with Azula, one who could hide her true feelings all too well, I could have been wrong. Throughout the battle, I noticed that the same thing was on both of our minds: “Kill the other”. I figured that she would be trying her killer, so I prepared to coat myself with a thick layer of earth to ground the attack should it come.

Just as I figured that I had found a way to finish off this little dancing blind freak, she proved me wrong again with a sudden large rock that zipped by me, grazing my left ear. I laughed. “You don’t think that being a little blind dancing girl is going to make you win, did you?” But I answered my own question. Mocking her was my mistake, for mid-sentence, I noticed a huge rock headed right for my chest. Toph nailed me squarely with her finishing move, “The Gut-Crusher” I knew I had made a foolish mistake, and was mad because I lost again.

“You want to see a little blind dancing girl,” I taunted, “then maybe you should fight Sanaki when you return for another go.” I paused. “Of course,” I said, “you didn’t do half-bad, but I’m still better than you.” My cocky nature hoped she would respond, but Azula was already motionless. I snapped my fingers in disappointment, and suddenly realized that I could not feel my chest. I moved my hand down and noticed that I had gotten severely burned there and I could feel nothing. The thought made me cringe, but as I sensed Sanaki take Azula away, I could only grin. “Our winner,” said 253, “Is Toph Bei Fong once again!”

whoa, what a show. And what a surprise... *rolls eyes* curse me and my Toph/Sanaki bias. Someone may eventually beat them besides each other--and Ty Lee... well, maybe. GAH! Who knows?

[Orophin]

Another marvelous battle!

Azula got cocky, never a good idea. (Unless you are Chuck Norris/Toph)

Yay Toph!

[The Duke]

Always good to see Azula get put in her place. Totally unexpected that Toph would win *cough cough*. I liked it though.

[justafan]

since when could azula redirect lighting though, other than that god job

[Kapanto]

Ahhh you and your bias! I want Azula to wiiiiiiin!

"her dance was weird". Haha.

[Bruce8331]

Another entertaining match, but it was predictable that Toph would win.
8.5/10 (the lack of the remaining 1.5 was because of the lack of blood lust XD) LOL

Another 'what if' match recently came to my head, Ozai vs Zuko, father vs son!! That would be sweet!!

[Teяa253]

hmmm... so it's more bloodlust from Toph and Sanaki, eh?
well, I'll see what I can do. in the meantime, enjoy round 19.

ROUND 19: KATARA VS. SANAKI
I strode out onto the battlefield once again. I noticed at once that in the corners was water and fire. This would be interesting. One thing about the Fight Club that I noticed was that I, Sanaki, and Toph were chosen probably more than anyone else—well, and Ty Lee. The fact that I wasn’t fighting her again was a relief. I stood there awaiting the appearance of my opponent. I didn’t have to wait long.
“Against Katara today,” said 253, “is Sanaki Li Chan, known to some as “the swindler”. Enter Sanaki!”
I watched as the little blind firebender shot out onto the arena in a swift blur. After she appeared, she stopped, and suddenly seemed bent upon pulling a large lump of wax out of her right ear. People in the crowds laughed—I looked somewhat disgusted, especially with Sanaki’s results. Nonetheless, I had to stay focused. I couldn’t let a stupid thing like that throw me off-guard. I knew what Sanaki’s strength was, and I naturally deducted her weakness. She was small and weak, but was incredibly fast. She would use overwhelming force. I was confident though, because I knew firebenders had little or no defense, even Sanaki.

I laughed after sensing what I pulled out of my ear. This lump of wax had set a personal record, but now wasn’t the time or place, so I threw it aside. I turned to face Katara as the announcer called the commencement of the fight. Katara’s moves were pretty fast I will admit, but not as fast as mine. I was aware that she knew my weakness, just as she was aware that I knew hers. Fire and water were shooting all around the arena, and I sensed that things were literally getting steamy. Oh well, I guess it was time I demonstrated to the world that firebending was not all about being aggressive and using overwhelming force. I would show them that there were defensive maneuvers. I, of course, had created them, to help protect my small, weak frame. I knew my body was weak, but what did I care? With firebending, all things are possible—or so I would say. I chuckled a little at this thought.

Sanaki attacked with swift, brief strokes that did not contain the usual power and offensive mechanisms that normal firebending usually did. She had obviously taught herself how to do it, because I had never seen a style like hers at all. She used so much defense that it almost felt like I was fighting an earthbender. I was glad she couldn’t bend lightning, because the heat from her flames consumed anything that would have been an attack. I decided though, to exploit Sanaki’s other weakness—low temperatures. I shot a mist of ice directly at Sanaki, and her reflexes caught it. This was not a surprise. I decided to use a decoy force, assisted with overwhelming power.

As I was launching volley after volley, I ended up foolishly launching one that missed my intentions of upholding my defenses. To my dismay, Katara noticed, and then hit me with a terrible attack. It wasn’t painful, but I could feel my body temperature dropping. I screamed instinctively, and a foul laugh from Katara told me, her, and the entire audience that she had discovered my true weakness. I was now completely blind. Worse yet, she decided to rub it in. “feeling hot yet, blind kid?” she leered, and this set me off. I hated being insulted, especially about a trait that I actually cherished about myself. My lack of eyesight was what made me so much different than most other people. How many blind people besides Toph and I could actually make themselves a reputation as incredible fighters and benders?
“Never...” I said, my anger fueling my flames of ambition, “insult... me... for being... BLIND!!!” I roared, and suddenly, I felt myself flipping over into a handstand position and shooting a massive wave of fire at her from my feet. I could not tell where she was, but the sound of a sharp intake of breath told me I had hit her somehow. The heat from my anger was warming my body back up and slowly but surely, I was regaining my sense of location. Things were becoming clear again.

She was surprisingly persistent. She was worse than Zuko, and that made me want to kill her. I wanted to rip her limb from limb with whatever form of evil waterbending I could think of. As she was coming at me, I answered her moves with 3 swift moves. I had slipped underneath her, blasting her with a wave of ice as I passed. After I got back up, my other two moves involved binding her arms with my water whips. I enjoyed hearing her screaming and struggling to break free and I reeled her back towards me. I decided to pin her legs down too, so I did without much trouble. I was now pulling her arms backwards at angles they weren’t supposed to bend at, waiting for the crunch.

I screamed in pain as I heard both my arms snap. Tears welled up in my eyes. I was so glad that she was behind me. I gritted my teeth to drive away the pain, and launched a sudden attack at Katara, which involved both of my feet. I launched myself a few inches into the air, kicked my feet behind me, despite them being bound, and launched a fireball at Katara, knocking her back. She retaliated by sending water bubbles at my legs. Her water swallowed them up, and I felt like I was standing waist-deep in a pool of water. She jerked her attack a little, and swept me off my feet, so that my face met the floor with an unpleasant thump. She then quickly covered my hands as well. I could firebend through nearly anything. However, water was not one of them. I could feel my energy moving out of my hands and feet. It was going somewhere else. I suddenly remembered this, and grinned in the slightest. No one noticed—well, maybe someone did, but being blind, I wouldn’t know.

I loomed over Sanaki’s frame, which was facedown in front of me. “You ready to die?” I asked her, and to my surprise, I got a response as I flipped her over and peppered her chest with tiny ice spears. “No,” she said, and suddenly, she did something that not only surprised me, but apparently also surprised the whole crowd. She bent her had back at an angle that she was able to face me, and then shot a huge stream of fire from her mouth. In that second, she had formed a fiery ‘X’ that was now implanted into my gut. I fell down, stunned, surprised, shocked, and defeated. Sanaki had just killed me. As I sunk to my knees, I shrugged it off as another loss, but I swore revenge as I felt my life force vanish.

I was unable to move. Katara had destroyed my ankles with her water move, and my arms had been broken as well. Well, this wasn’t the first time my limbs had been broken in Avatar Fight Club. As far as the spewing fire went, I too was surprised that I was actually able to do it. As I sensed Katara getting taken away, I realized that this would become an invaluable skill...

yeah, yeah. it may not have been a surprise, but there was a little bloodlust, particularly from the Katara department...
STANDINGS:
Ty Lee: 4-0
Toph: 4-1

So, whadya think?
~Katara~

[The Duke]

As you said, big surprise with Sanaki winning. I liked the breaking of limbs, that's always good stuff, but was sad when I guessed fire from the mouth was coming. Oh well, still good.

[Orophin]

Yay! Fighting to the death always cheers me up!

Ty Lee is still the Fight Club champion, so unless someone beats her, or Toph or Sanaki beat someone else, she will remain champion.

We shall see what happens, next time, on Fight Club!

[justafan]

fun read as always
