1st Tenkaichi Bending-Kai Preliminary Tournament- First Match: Bailey Jane Vs. NiyNiy (Tendo)

Ieyasu just remained motionless as he watched the attack come. He did not smile, he did not chuckle, he did not smirk, he did not speak. He felt a bit of guilt for how this was to soon end, even though this was what he wanted. He had thrown everything at this poor girl, and she had taken it, and now, it was going to end very horribly very soon. The water whip came to him, and without feeling, Ieyasu grabbed the whip, turned it against its master, and grabbed her with it, then pulled her in close and covered his other hand with ice. He was going to slam his fist right into her gut. If she was hit with this, she'd hit the ground, and Ieyasu would finish it with the statue, otherwise, well...he'd see where this went.

HP: 2 Kimi Hashiko

Spoiler:

Kimi tried to pull back against Ieyasu's grip on her whip, only to loose focus on the water below her and be pulled right into the ice attack. Mental note, learn Ice bending She told herself as she was released from Ieyasu's grasp and fell toward the ground. The hit had hit her hard, and she couldn't think straight as she moved to pull water around her and catch her fall. It was all she could do to stop herself from getting hurt by the height she was at. Taking in a deep breath, she stayed below the water around her. The only attack she could think of was to knock him from the height as well. Without a second thought, Kimi pulled herself up followed by another wave directed at the statue's middle. She aimed to break the statue in two and force Ieyasu back down to her level.

Ieyasu's fist connected with the girl's gut for what felt like the thousandth time. She went limp for a second and fell back, but she didn't hit the ground. She went into the water and stayed below it for a few seconds. At first, Ieyasu thought that she had drowned or gone unconscious. Ieyasu knew she was precariously close to collapsing and going out cold, but no, she wasn't done yet. In a last ditch attempt, her final stand, and her last attack, she rose herself to torso level of the statue and attempted to destroy it before it destroyed her. It was pointless, but honourable. Ieyasu clapped his hands together, holding them out from his body. Together, all ten arms went in towards Bailey, going in to clap themselves, one on top of the over, over Baily and finish her off. Hopefully this would do it, this would be it, and this would end her suffering.

HP: -15 Kimi Hashiko

Kimi couldn't recover from her attack fast enough to avoid the hands coming around her. She couldn't move out of the way and was hit hard. With a scream, Kimi fell to the ground and was covered by Ieyasu's attack. She was knocked unconscious quickly and landed with her legs in the water she was bending. Inside Kimi's mind, however, things happened differently. Her mind rebounded as soon as she was hit and she instantly began to dream of standing on the top pier being crowned the winner of the entire tournament. Flowers were thrown from the balconies and a wreath was placed on Kimi's shoulders as someone lifted her in the air.

Waking from her unconscious state, Kimi looked around her at the pure white walls of the arena's hospital. "Well, that was just perfect." She told herself.

(OOC: NiyNiy.. You called her Bailey twice...)

((OOC: I'm sorry! DX))

Ieyasu watched as Kimi hit the ground and fell unconscious. It was how he wanted, as he had ended it with the statue, but he still had to give it his all against a tribesman, and that hurt him, and his ability to overtalk and meant he would spent tomorrow in repentance, but he accepted his punishment for his words. With a bow, Ieyasu jumped from the statue, as he raised his arms and brought them in again towards the middle of his body, as if in prayer, forming a full circle with both hands. He closed his eyes, and truly did pray, to the Moon and Water, to all the gods above, and to his ancestors. As he did, the statue shone majestically in the sun as it began to melt, turning into water that returned to the pools of water on either side.

With a bow, he finished and walked over to the pool, and began to wash the blood from his face and his--it was his own blood, and as per the ritual of Seishinism, he needed to be purified after a fight in order for his prayers to be heard. After cleaning himself off, Ieyasu looked down at Kimi. He looked down at her and gave a small smile, ignoring his own wounds, he grabbed her, placed her over his shoulder, and walked with her that way to the infirmary of the arena.

He stood over her, even after he was healed, and looked at her until she came to. "You fought hard and well," he smiled, "You stood up against my Statue of the Great Sage and lived to tell the tale, repeatedly. You were even able to withstand some of my strongest techniques. I am proud to have fought someone as honourable and worthy as you. And though you lost, I offer you this: When this tournament is over, seek me out in the Northern Tribe. I shall train you, and bring out your true potential." And with that, Ieyasu left the room slowly, walking back to the stands to watch the other matches. He had finally found someone worthy to pass his techniques on to.

Ieyasu did something unorthodox, as he carried his opponent away towards the infirmary after praying to his gods.

"Well folks, after that...well, astounding display, it appears that Ieyasu Leihing is the winner and shall be moving on to the Heavyweight competition!" said Mr. Showbiz as the crowed cheered for Ieyasu, as the cheering died down Mr. Showbiz continued, "His opponent, the unlucky Kimi Hashiko shall be moving on to the Lightweight competition! That's all for today folks, stay tuned for the next round!" The crowed cheered again for Kimi and then as they died down, waited patiently for the next match to start.
