Underground Cage Fights (Open)

[lycan]

(OOC: This will take place after returning with Paul Douglas and his search for his sister…)

Faith entered the cage, her jeans ripped at the knees and her tank top tucked in them, her combat boots laced up and tied tightly to prepare for the fights ahead of her. She sauntered over to the far corner as the master of the ring announced her entrance, ”In this corner, weighing in at 236 lbs. we have a first time contender, Lycan.” She heard the crowd boo her efforts, and she shrugged her shoulders before rolling her head on her neck. She didn’t care what they thought of her, but she was only there for one thing and one thing only.

Being trained to get anything she needed, she knew the right places to look for information on anything. She needed a way to get some cash, and unlike her father she really didn’t have any other skills besides fighting and tracking. So being a mechanic wasn’t among her job skills. So she had heard rumors of underground cage fights in the city after the sun goes down, and that the winners were paid good money for their victories. It was perfect for her. She only hoped that she would be able to hold back the instinct to kill when she thought she would be victorious, and what better way to find out other than trying it herself?

Faith stood off to the side of the cage, ready for a fight when her opponent entered. She eyed him seriously, and then shrugged her shoulders again. The same person who announced her entrance did his. This guy was massively huge, like he was a body builder or something, and she knew she would have no problem defeating him. Hell, she had been up against meaner looking opponents back at what she would call the lab. So this guy would be no sweat. When the master of the cage had announced that the fight started now, her opponent charged her and took a swing at the side of her head. She of coursed quickly ducked the oversized fist, and came up throwing a punch at his abs as hard as she could. She allowed the weight of her adamantium skeleton follow through to give it one heck of a ‘kick‘. When he didn’t budge, she looked up to him to see him laugh at her effort.

’Oh shit…’ She thought to herself as he lifted both of his hands above his head, clasped together. She knew if she wasn’t careful, this guy could truly hurt her and then where would she be? She waited until he started to bring his down, before stepping out of the way. She waited until they hit the ground where she stood moments earlier, and then gave him two jabs to the face, one with each fist, before lifting up her knee to connect with his jaw. His head jerked up, and he staggered for a moment before glaring at her. She smirked at him and she watched as he threw another punch at her, in anger. This guy doesn’t seem used to getting hit in his fights, but there was a first time for everything.

His fist connected with her back where she turned to move, and it felt like he was trying to aim for her kidneys. She growled in warning at him, her instincts were telling her to extend her claws and dice him into tiny pieces. However, she kept that feral side of her at bay…for now. She turned around letting her animal in her eyes that usually scared the other weapons she was pitted up against for tests and other uses back at the facility, and grinned that grin to go with it. Anyone who knew her, would say she had just lost all mercy in her mind, and whoever was against her was about to suffer dearly. Her reaction to being hit in the kidneys like that was to jump up high in the air, and give her opponent a roundhouse kick to the head. She had put enough force behind it to send a redwood tree to the ground, and she knew that this guy was going to fall.

Faith landed lightly with grace, as was her style, just in time to see her opponent stagger around for a bit and then fall like a cut tree. He even made the same sound when landing, and the crowd stayed silent for a brief moment before cheering. She smirked to herself, as it seemed she was their new favorite contestant. The cage master announced her as the winner, and held her hand up in the air while the crowd went wild. Her eyes took in the crowd surrounding her, and she paused as she thought she saw someone familiar among them…

It wasn't a normal everyday night. Instead, Loopy found herself situated in the underground cage fight, watching interestedly as the fight progressed. Hands down, the little thing had no chance, But thats what made it fun. The hopelessness of the fight, how she would just simply be crushed.. Oh now that was what these fights were made for. A sinister smile formed on a face, But the fight seemed to progress in a way in which she'd never imagined. The girl actually seemed to have a glimmer of a chance. Loopys eyes narrowed a bit, she hated tales of the underdog wining. This big bloke had to stop being a little patsy and just beat her ass like he was meant to. Finally he got a nice jab into, right in the kidneys. Slim chance in recovery she added in her head and cheered loudly for the big dumb ape who had so far won consequtively in the nights to come. Though the events began to change and not seconds after had the girl leapt in the air and hit em wit ha nice roundhouse kick to the head. She winced, almost feeling the pain herself then imploding in negativity.

"BOOOO!" booed the blonde girl from the crowd which all seemed to cheer, her fists pumping in the air viciously and her thin bare legs swinging wildly from the bar stool. By first glance, she seemed out of place in the crowd of rough tough guys, and hardened girls. Wearing a floral printed dress that looked as if it were made for a child, though the additions to her outfit seemed to contradict it. Hanging limply over her shoulders she wore a leather coat that looked as if it werent made for her but an adult man, and clad on her feet were a pair of chunky boots. Loopy persisted in her shouts toward the ring, as if the setting around her were natural, as if the drunk beside her was something she became accustomed to. Swinging her feet to gain momentum, she hopped off the stool and started to squeeze her way through the crowd.

"CHEAP SHOT CHEAP SHOT! HER SHOES ARE LACED WITH METAL" she bellowed through the crowd not really making much sense but enjoying the ability to yell nonsense. Little did Loopy know she wasn't all that off on that assumption. Loopy had never gotten formally acquainted with faith, but she had seen her around enough to know she didn't belong here. Not that it was any different from herself but she had never been one for rules.When she caught Faiths stare, she returned it with a sweet smile and a tiny wave. Somehow it felt as though she had seen something she wasn't supposed to... Maybe something that might get her into trouble? Maybe something she could pester her about? Or just maybe it could be something she could use to her advantage? She did miss the feeling of spreading her wings a bit.

Faith watched as the face booed her victory and accused her of cheating. She only growled a warning at them as they approached through the crowd. No one else may have heard the accuser, but because of her heightened sense she did so perfectly. She then recognized the owner as a female from the mansion. She of course had never talked to her, but that still did not mean that the lady knew who she was. For all she knew was that the woman could just go and tell her father that she was fighting for money, using the fact that she has a metal alloy skeleton to her advantage.

The lady then smiled sweetly at her and gave a small wave, and she sniffed the air knowing from the scent the woman gave off that she didn’t mean either one of those things. It was like the blond was mocking her… Did she not know that it could be a dangerous thing for her to do so? Especially when she is pumped up for a fight like she was at that moment. However, it seemed that the ‘officials’ of this operation were ignoring the blonde’s accusations. It wasn’t like she was hiding the fact that she was carrying something that were against the rules. She grinded her teeth, as the fact that the face in the crowd seemed to be annoying her, and her animal side slowly crept up to the surface.

Faith knew that if she let it loose, then she would expose herself for what she was. And not only would she make these humans fear her, but others like her. However, that would be the least of her worries as then Weapon X would know where she was. Then she would have to run, and leave the life she had liked at the mansion. She was not going to allow that to happen. When the master of the ring asked if she was ready for her next opponent, she merely nodded her head in answer. She needed to lash out with her hands and feet, and the sooner that happened the safer everyone else was. She looked at the blond once more and growled again for her to back off.

Her next opponent entered the cage, and she stopped to study him. Surprisingly, she was the only female fighter tonight and all the male fighters looked huge and muscular. She wondered why that was. However, she also knew that she could take them all down in one big confrontation and still have enough steam to keep going. She was distracted by someone shouting in the crowd, and she thought that it was the blond, before a large fist clobbered the side of her head and sent her flying toward the wire of the side of the cage. That hurt, but not as much as she could give him. She then got to her feet and turned to look at him, her hands were balled into fists, and she then returned the favor.
