Extra-Curricular Combat Training - Feng

It was a pleasant day today.


The sun is shining, the birds are singing and the wind feels cold yet gentle. But today was nothing compared to such feelings of peace as Feng walked to her appointed meeting place to fight Jazmine. The heroine who made her explosive sentence right before her very eyes in her first year and how much it burned into her memory. A fellow classmate she fought the moment she came back and it ended in her rather….forced victory. She may have barely won against her in a sparring session but this was different.

Documentation and the introductions said that this is a fight to the ‘death’ in all intents and purposes. To build up nerves for when she actually goes up against one anyways. She may have fought one before but she needed more experience if she wanted to properly go toe to toe with one if she ever fought one again. Her expression was rather neutral this time around as she knows what is going on and her usual demeanor was replaced with a more calculated demeanor that examined her surroundings.

She knows that she can take her on directly in a fight as that would be trying to fight a tank with grenades. The best option for a fight like this is to use every single trick she can think of to her advantage so she can get out with minor injury. It was dirty and something that is not Fengs style but she knows her opponent and her opponent knows her. The battle of this scale is less physical and more knowledge based as she doesnt know what else tricks she has up her sleeve compared to hers. To compensate, she needs to get as many cards as possible into her hand so she can gain full control of the battle if she plays them right. Keyword being IF because she doesn't know what Jaz is doing right this moment.

It doesn't help that the battlefield is a disaster plagued version of a city skyline. It was territory she is intimate with as her previous experiences took her all around and about it. But it doesn't mean she can't be careless. Already she began her strategy as she used her skills to quietly sneak into the arena and move in the shadows to find out where Jazmine is. With some searching and using her enhanced vision she saw her perched at the high rise building at the center of the arena. It was the perfect vantage point but she had a few dozen blindspots. Feng used her quirk and skills to sneak her way up the building up to where she was. Hiding behind a wall and catching her breath for a moment, she was ready for what was going to happen for what she was going to do. Her eyes began to glow and her legs began to go hot as she took the opportunity to strike at her from behind as she went for a basic kick aimed at the dead center of her back. As it made contact, no matter the result she would respond with jumping backwards towards the city below to avoid getting a face full of explosives as she simply gestured at Jaz as a way to say hello.

Of course that trick would not work twice on the same opponent like her. Feng of course fell for the bait as she felt Jaz block the kick at full force. She was still sent flying but there was enough time for her to react as the spring legged heroine saw an explosive wave flying towards the ceiling. The initial attack is not what scared her but what it can do as she saw it blast apart the roof they were standing on. A hail of steel and concrete flew high into the air as she saw more explosions in the corner of her eye.

“An explosive reaction I must say”, Feng muttered to herself as her eyes scanned the sky above for a moment for any sign of Jazmine. But standing still is going to leave her wide open for attacks and she is damn well sure she can't afford a full frontal battle against her. At least not right now but she needs to rethink her battle plan since it is becoming more a game of chess than anything else. But unfortunately, she was a tad bit slow on the uptake as she can see Jazmine barreling towards her at explosive speeds. She assumed she can at least block the hit like she always does but then she got even faster as she felt a large amount of pain slam into her stomach. She attempted to activate her quirk to get her feet off the ground so she can at least mitigate some of the damage but it did little to ease the pain. She grit her teeth as her expression shifted into a more serious look as a sign that the fight had actually started.

First was the pain as she blanked out for a moment as she hadn't felt a hit like that in a while but then came the fleeting feeling of falling towards the ground. But it took a second for her to catch herself as she activated her quirk to stop the momentum of the fall. She landed on the ground with little issue barring the massive amount of pain on her stomach.

“Owwww”, she got back up on her feet as she looked around and up above to see where she was. Considering this was a city, there must be about a dozen places to hide and lie in wait. Normally she would take the reckless approach and take her on without delay but considering the circumstances and current situation...she must think more methodically if she wants to get out of this. Her eyes scanned the area above as she caught a small glimpse of Jazmine. She at least knows where she was but now concerns the matter of attacking her since her fire power seems to have improved dramatically since the last time.

Feng took in a deep breath and slowly exhaled as she activated her quirk once again. The surrounding area temperature got a little hotter but it was enough for her to confirm her own limits. She quickly into the shadows of the city and used her speed to get some distance between them. Using her mirage-like skill to throw her off her trail so she can't see her as easily. She cant hope to take her on at full force...so might as well try and make her a slight bit tired blowing the place apart.

Jaz was playing her role right to a tee as the provocations started to come. Feng was no stranger to this sort considering some of the villains she had dealt in her internships. She moved and dived in all a matter of ways as she hopped up to the edge of a nearby building to see the “villainess” in the distance. Her quirk was still in effect as her visage distorted and moved as she stood with various copies of her in various places. Her eyes glowing as she looked at her with unblinking eyes.

“One. Any good hero worth their salt would have evacuated the entire area before the battle even started. The explosions would have rattled the more stubborn citizens at most.”. She responded in turn as her copies held up different number hands. “Two. Hiding keeps your focus on me and not on the citizens. Buildings can be rebuilt but not human lives.”, another raising her hand in unison. “And three. Why don't you look up?”, Feng says as she looks on from her spot.

The blue haired heroine knows she cant take her on directly because of how big of a power difference is between them. First exchange confirmed her fears the moment her hit made contact. If she doesn't want to end up as a burnt mess on the floor of this place, she is going to need to use all of her skills in unison to get out of this.

Her eyes glowed as she locked onto her target, watching her go into full attack mode. Any sensible person would press for advantage and rush her down but with how big her blasts are….it'd be running into an artillery cannon with nothing on. Running away is not an option and attempting to bait her isnt going to end well for her the more she leaves her be.

She had a mental back and forth for a few moments before she settled on a plan. Her quirks range and effect was still in play as her copies distorted. It was a risk but she needs to do something or else.

“I really hate this situation...but might as well jump into the belly of the beast now rather than regret it later...GO!”, she said to herself as she activated her quirk once more as she and her copies began to leap from building to building. Each mirage has a slight delay in each action as they get closer and closer. As the temperature rises, more mirages begin to appear as Feng hides herself among the crowd she made with her own movements.

Feng would throw various feints towards Jaz with the intent to confuse her and get a reaction. But that was one part as the second part was to come in from her blindspot and have her land a solid hit on her. It was a gambit but god damn is she not going to let her talk like the villain anymore than she wants to hear.
