Violets and Thorns

Kaori's disposition did not change one bit after what Alizeh said, if anything, her smirk deepened with the girl's last words. "I am here now, am I not? And I'd rather be a little lioness than a fat cat like most of the so-called pro's are." She said flippantly, not even paying much mind to Alizeh as she did, her gaze returned to her however right after. "And so was our little Kate not too long ago. Now tell me, were you talking down to her like you did to me now? Kate must have been pretty desperate to let something like that slide." She added with a grin, prompting Kate to hold Alizeh's hand even tighter as if to tell her that it was not worth it.

Seeing that her words had little effect on Kaori and clenching her fists in response Alizeh would step away from Kate and start to approach the intruder. "As a matter of fact I didn't talk down to Kate when she was a lioness, wanna know why? its cause she was, is, and always will be better than you." Alizeh said lowly until she was just in front of Kaori. "But I have a sneaking suspicion that words or logic will have little effect with you, so how about I show you the distance between you and Kate myself? You vs me in the ring.... Unless you're scared." Alizeh said with a glower, ready to brawl as well if it came to it.

Kaori's smile only grew as she was getting more of a rise out of Alizeh with every second. "Oh really? And pray tell how did you get to that conclusion? Or are you just throwing words to the wind without thinking twice about it?" She said, noticing that Alizeh decided to come closer.

Alizeh's hand slipped out of Kate's hand "Alizeh, wait!" She said and tried to grab the girl's hand but she was already out of reach, making Kate follow in behind her just as she reached Kaori. "You're on, can't wait to see the look on your face when I'm done destroying you~"

[Bare]

Ignoring Kate's plea to wait Alizeh stepped forward and got right in Kaori's face to challenge her. Not only did she interrupt a very personal moment between herself and Kate, but she had bullied Kate in the past, and it was clear she didn't learn her lesson, so Alizeh would be happy to double down and teach her. "Talk all the smack you want, it won't mean anything when I have you tapping out, and begging to apologize." Alizeh said with a glare moving in a bit closer to bump into Kaori, not backing down in the least to the woman.

Kaori didn't even flinch as Alizeh stood right in front of her, staring her down, she was waiting for a crack, some further reaction from the clearly agitated woman and she got it. When Alizeh went to bump against her, Kaori would slide off to the side, letting Alizeh hit nothing but air, meanwhile, she'd hook one of Alizeh's legs with her own, raising it slightly to make the girl trip. "If you don't trip over your own legs first." She teased.

Just then Kate would catch up to the two and seeing what was happening she pushed Kaori away, standing in between the two women now. "That's enough!" She shouted, looking back to Alizeh to make sure she was ok. Meanwhile, Kaori would throw up her hands and slowly start to back off, the smug grin never leaving her face "I'm not doing anything, am I? See you in the ring, sunshine~"

Alizeh was glaring intensely at Kaori with fervent fury, practically ready to throw down right now. Something that seemed to be on the bully's mind as well as she out of nowhere suddenly tripped the greenette! "Gah!" Alizeh cried out as she was tripped and knocked down to her butt, yet almost immediately sitting back up with a glare at her future opponent, even as Kate got in between them Alizeh was getting back up to her feet and would have attacked if not for Kate and Kaori already starting to back up as well. "Hope you enjoyed that bitch... cause I'm going to pay you back for it later." Alizeh growled out while wrapping an arm around Kate's waist, pulling her close while glaring at Kaori's retreating form.

When it was clear Kaori would not get any more fun out of it without getting into a two-on-one brawl, which she was not nearly dumb enough to do, she retreated, looking at both women with a smile before turning around and giving them a little wave as she would leave the two, for now at least.

As soon as Kaori was far enough away, Kate would turn, visibly worried as she brushed off some dirt from Alizeh's dress. "Are you ok?" She said, obviously knowing it would take far more to hurt the woman but unable to not show concern at the moment. "I appreciate you standing up for me..." She said, pausing for a second "You know you don't have to, right? She's an old problem, dealt with and better left buried." She added, hoping to dissuade Alizeh from giving Kaori what she wanted but already knowing she would not let that one go.

[Bare]

Still huffing as Kaori took her leave Alizeh would be petty enough to flip her the bird as she walked away before getting a hold of herself and turning to Kate as the girl turned to her worried. In response Alizeh would lean forward and kiss Kate softly before pulling away. "I know I don't have too but I want to. You're right, she's an old problem, one that you shouldn't have to deal with anymore, and if I can do anything to make that possible then I will. Trust me, I got this, and I think you're going to really, really like what I do to her." Alizeh said with pure confidence as she wrapped her arm around Kate and pulled her close. "In any case... I think you and I were in the middle of something..." Alizeh said softly as she began to rest her fore head against Kate's own.

[ThatPolishDude]

Kate did not expect the sudden kiss but it certainly brightened her mood after that interruption to what otherwise was a perfect evening. "I know you can, and I trust you. I just think she's not worth your time." Kate said softly, it was true enough, there was no doubt in Kate's mind that Alizeh could mop up the floor with Kaori, and though Alizeh's ego could get a little bit ahead of herself, she didn't think it was one of those cases, and besides, it stayed in the bounds of being charming in its own way. She would still rather her now fiance stayed clear of Kaori, but she didn't have a real reason to worry, so she'd let things happen however they would. "Well... i think I was about to~" Kate leaned in to kiss Alizeh, deeply and passionately, holding the woman close for a long moment before releasing, but still embracing her, caressing her cheek with one hand "Do that. And suggest we swing by my place for that bottle I mentioned before~"

[Bare]

Now that the riff raff was gone Alizeh could turn and focus her attention on her beautiful new fiance who... just kissed her full on the lips. Melting into the kiss Alizeh would hum softly in utter appreciation, her annoyance levels dropping down to zero as she focused on Kate with a quick blink before smiling brightly at the purplette's words.

"That sounds absolutely delightful." Alizeh said as she moved to slide her arm through Kate's, resuming the position they had first walked into the park in. "Lead the way future wife." Alizeh said with a teasing grin directed at Kate while leaning her head down on Kate's muscular shoulder, completely and utterly content in the moment.
