No! No, no, no, no!
Somehow, everything seemed to be backfiring against Tsuzume. And ... it was beginning to annoy her. Very much so, actually. Her eyes narrowed as Tsuzume bit onto her lower lip, tightly holding the joystick. A few times, she felt as if she were about to rip the damn thing out -- which, after taking the test against the punching machine -- wasn't an impossible thing for her to maybe end up doing. He head bowed forward slightly as she began to pant rapidly. Even though Tsuzume was controlling Mira, she felt as if she was the actual person fighting. Not some fictional assassin, but her very self.
Stop. Breathe. Calm down ...
Tsuzume's head lifted sharply upward, glancing in time to see Kyoku charging forward.
"HELL NO!" she growled, the tone of her voice suddenly becoming more fierce and competitive than ... ever. Even in their classes, Kyoku would never have heard Tsuzume speak quite like this. And now that she briefly thought on it, she realized the significance.
... But just as hastily shook it off and away, not wanting to risk losing due to distracting herself yet again.
Stop. Focus ...
Taking a long, deep breath, Tsuzume moved the joystick again, guiding Mira closer to the monk. When the distance was closed between them, she executed another grapple, panting but smirking happily.
... Only to feel her eyes widen again as she was quickly reminded that Senkyomashuyan could also do throws. He, however, had a major difference versus Mira. Some of his could be done from a longer range, even across the screen.
And by the time she remembered, it was too late.
Both Mira and Tsuzume elicited a pained cry. The announcer soon added, "ROUND ONE, OVER! WINNER, SENKYOMASHUYAN!"
"Son of a bitch," Tsuzume growled, inhaling sharply as the screen reset and both characters were put across from one another.
Thank god it's always the best two out of three, Tsuzume reminded herself.
"Round two! Fight!"
Not even waiting to see what Kyoku would or wouldn't do, Tsuzume had Mira charge forward - albeit in the same, slightly reckless manner as her friend usually would - and tried to go for a brutal uppercut.
