An easygoing encounter between two newcomers?! (For TheRacker)

[NicoSensei]

As soon as their hands were connected and squeezed together, the second round began.
Nozuki initially decided not to use too much force to see what Eun would do.
The girl pushed him making him crawl a step backwards, at which point he pushed her away too until he left the challenge in a stalemate, although he was letting the grip of both on the hands become stronger. He could feel she was trying to squeeze harder, almost.
He spread his lips in a smile, allowing the girl to use all necessary strength to properly compare that of the boy.
Nonetheless, he remained on guard, ready to let go in case Eun changed her approach.
He certainly did not want to lose because of who knows what lightness, but at the moment he wanted to take advantage of this moment to instill determination in the girl and allow her to let off steam.

[TheRacker]

Eun was happy when she saw progress afret they started with a test of strength. But she also know that Nozuki was probably going easy on her so she shouldn't get too confident yet. She didn't know if he still felt a little bad for punching her earlier, but either way - she liked the gesture. She kept on pushing forward, but right now he was firmly standing his ground and not moving.

Fun times was over after she looked at him and saw he almost didn't break a sweat. Now she wasn't sure whether he was nice or was just toying around with her.

It was time to change tactic a little. She let him go and moved closer to him, ready to avoid his arms or legs in case he'll try to catch her. Hopefully she'll get to him, where she'd try to wrap her arms around his body and toss him to the sand.

[NicoSensei]

Despite the stalemate, Eun was continuing to push.
It was clear that she was not going to go light but perhaps he was starting to be too light.
In fact, even though he expected to be released from his hands, Nozuki was too slow to react.
Eun ended up on him grabbing him in his arms and making him fall to the ground.

- Gh! -

Shamefully he admitted that he had made a mistake: he should have taken the girl more seriously and rather win the showdown.
Quickly, he grabbed the girl by the shoulders trying to push her and tried to push her away with a kick in the belly.
If the blow landed, he would crawl to the side and charge on the girl without hesitation.

[TheRacker]

Eun wasted no time and tried to mount Nozuki right after tossing him down in the sand. But he was faster this time and one strong push with his legs send her flying away. Luckily she was agile enough to land on her feet, so she was prepared to continue their fight right away. She looked at him and realized that fun times were. She had her moment to shine, but seems like he won't hold himself back anymore. She knew she could still win this round, but will have to work really hard for it.

Still, it was first time Eun saw him charging right away. Perhaps he won't be as carefull as he was in their first round. It won't take long to find out. Eun waited for him and jumped aside right before they would collide to avoid his charge. Simillar to him, she would waste no time and would follow with an attack, trying to send a kick into his leg.

[NicoSensei]

Luckily he had managed to break away from her and still had room for action. The idea was to shoot and hit the girl quickly with an elbow but this time she was much more careful and quick in her movements, so much so that she managed to avoid the boy's charge.

This was starting to getting serious quickly and he somekind liked it.

He turned but barely moved his leg to be able to parry the blow properly, which was not exactly accurate but was still a way to start an offensive. He barely bent his leg down and, expecting a grip, he immediately used his left elbow to hit her in the full stomach and if the attack was successful, he would try again to trouble the girl with a headlock from behind her shoulders.

[TheRacker]

Eun's plan didn't really worked as she thought, but at least she managed to avoid Nozuki's initial charge. She had to act quick and back away before Nozuki would be able to make a counter attack. She was still in danger as long as they remained in close proximity. Last time it ended pretty bad for her when he cought her offguard.

She still cought a punch into a stomach, causing her to double over. She cought his movement with a corner of her eyes and quickly ducked and rolled away right before he could grab her.

She stood up and smiled to him after getting some distance and rushed back toward him and do a jump front kick, trying to land her foot in his face.

[NicoSensei]

Although he had managed to land an elbow strike, Eun was ready to react for the next move and in fact, he had used his agility to escape Nozuki.

The latter looked at her with a serious and cold look, again remarking on how much the competition had now entered the heart.
Neither wanted to lose and that was a fact. He returned his smile without paying attention to the sweat that was now beginning to be evident on his obvious and slight physical fatigue and kept on guard.

Eun sprinted very quickly and saw a front kick come to the face; the boy supported his arm with his free hand to act as a shield and the kick hit the mark: it was definitely a strong kick, not so much as to move him away a few steps but the boy took a side step behind him to keep a light distance.
If Eun wanted to avoid being grabbed at all costs, so would he too, since he had not yet been able to ascertain how ready the girl was in the grips.
He composed himself hard on his feet in the warm sand, ready to counter the girl's next move.

[TheRacker]

Eun jumped, kicked, but met his arms instead of face. She tired to follow up by grabing and tossing him while having guard down, but he was too fast for her this time. She let out a grunt and swing with her arms, but unfortunatelly just glided through air.

She turned toward Nozuki and moved two steps backward to gain some distance and come up with a new plan. She was hesitent to a slow approach with grapling, since he was a bit bigger and heavier. She knew she had to use her quickness, but this was tricky too. Nozuki was quite fast himself as well and managed to block her attempts.

At the end Eun decided for slow aproach afterall. She'd walk toward him with arms raised and went for a lock-up again. She was quite sure he'll accept it, since previous attempts of lock up and test of strength end up in his favor.
Eun wouldn't push forward this time, but would move one leg behind his and tried to trip him. Hopefully she'll manage to cause him fall down on his back to mount and pin his wrists on the ground.

[NicoSensei]

Although he was sure that the girl would continue his assault, she suddenly distanced himself again. Judging by her attitude and expression it was clear that for him, she was realizing how difficult it was for her to approach the boy. After all, it was logical: Nozuki had a more trained and strong physique so it was assumed that for the girl the approach had to be as cautious as possible. For her it would have been a continuous hit and run full of tricks until the boy would have let his guard down or did something wrong in his defense, not to mention that thanks to his childhood experience with karate he was able to turn the situation around in an instant.

Despite all this reasoning, Nozuki did not want to take her lightly nor to show an attitude of superiority. In a way, he felt he could empathize with the girl. Often he has never won against his sister, so he partially understood the possible frustration. Always on guard, he waited for the girl, intent on seeing what he would do now. Would he try a direct attack, a feint, a hold again? For him it was as if the match was a game of chance on the part of the girl.

Finally, Eun decided to make another attempt with a lock-up; Nozuki raised his eyebrow slightly, he knew that he would probably "win" again in that context and in fact, he immediately realized that in all likelihood, Eun wanted to sneak him again, for sure. Sometimes during the sparring he had even succeeded, but by now it could be said that he had adapted to his pattern.
(As you want.) He mentally said approaching her raising his arms. He was sure it would be a fake and rather, he decided to take risks for one reason only: he would not be fooled.

Slowly, the fingers of both began to touch, as if they were both reluctant as they kept an eye on each other feeling a strange tension somewhat flirty, although he did not mind, but finally they intertwined again and both shook hands. Nozuki immediately noticed that Eun was not even trying to push him and looked down: as soon as he saw the girl's right leg bring back on his own, he countered his tripping by doing exactly the same thing as Eun with his right leg on her left. This rapid movement of both of them caused them to press their respective shoulders against both of their bodies, bringing down their arms in an intense squeeze of force with each other that inevitably would try to push each other to the ground using the leg.positioned one behind the other.

- Ghhh! -

Nozuki wanted to repay Eun with her own medicine, putting her on the ground.

[TheRacker]

Eun locked up with Nozuki again. She hoped to have more luck with another trick from under her sleeve. There wasn't any surprise that Nozuki accepted the lock up without much hesitation. But at that point Eun had to try something new. Just standing and waiting won't help and neither would her quick attacks.

He went for attack and tried to triped him, but he went for same attack and interlaced his leg with hers. Eun tried to stood her ground, but wasn't sucessfull. And them being in a lock up prevented her from escaping. Eun let out a short grunt as he overpowered her and knocked her down on her back.
