Welcome to Gaia! ::

"No."

Lazenca had been sitting down because the other person was taking his or her sweet time to show up. It ended up being a "her"... a blind "her." This should be.... interesting.

"This is as much a reality as any dream or nightmare. Someone has to be defeated... or die for us to leave. Lucid dreaming... that's what this is. I've had this dream before, though the stage always shifts."

He stood, arching his back to pop it in a couple of places. "I'd like to wake up sometime soon. Your options are to defend yourself or stand there."

Lazenca was one grumpy sonofabitch when he was called by whatever whimiscal dieties controlled this place, because he had been eating every single time it happened. This was no different. To further illustrate that he'd been caught midmeal, Laz started picking his teeth with a pinkie claw. If they could catch him one time when he wasn't eating... then man, he probably would have asked the girl her name, inquired about her lack of sight and how good she was... smalltalk in this waking dream of the Void before getting to the matter of true waking.

But he was eating and once again, annoyed.

There was one other blind fighter around. A male, and he had a huge neon sign with magic to absorb shocks. Kinda cheap, kinda lame, but he lived. He saw a little Zatoichi in passing, nothing extensive. But he knew that the blind people always laugh before they beat you down something serious and steal your money. So, forgive Lazenca for finding no humor in her antics.

His approach was... pedestrian, but his right arm was up horizontally before him, chest level. Let him get close enough and he'd kick her cane (hard enough to make her lose it if she were being shaky on holding it, which probably wasn't gonna happen, but it was some kinda test hit). Of course, he was expecting to get hit first, but this was a standard way of making the first move... just walking forward and making the person uncomfortable enough to react.

Evee's mouth opened in shock as the cane was kicked out from underneath her - to be spun around in her right hand, her left reaching up to grasp it as it came to rest - upon Lazenca's outstretched hand.

Not hard. She'd caught it as it had come down - his hand had only gotten in the way.

"Ah! There you are!" She said - before her left hand suddenly shot out, snapping the cane forward to strike at Lazenca's right cheek with surprising speed. The attack wasn't damaging - more painful, a deterrent, as if Knight was scolding a naughty child with a switch.

((Whoops, i mixed my left and rights up! i was supposed to strike the cheek where the cane was resting, not flip it over your head. oh well, my mistake!))

Evee's breath was blown out of her as the kick connected with her side. What a stupid thing to do!

But it was rectified. As the kick slammed into her side, she was lifted off the ground a little from the force - but her arm went around the leg, trapping it against her body. As she landed she would take a step back, pulling Lazenca off balance - before pivoting her hips, her foot coming out to stab into Lazenca's foot, knocking it out from under him and sending him crashing to the floor.

Still gripping Lazenca's leg, she'd grab his foot and give it a twist with both hands, possibly breaking it, maybe dislocating it, but really hurting it, before stepping away with a hand on her side and a pained expression on her blindfolded face.

"Aiyaaa!" Evee cried as she was kicked in the head, releasing his leg to fall to the ground on her stomach as well, at right-angled with Lazenca.

She'd roll away from Lazenca before coming to her feet in a kneeling position, steadying her blindfold before rubbing her face. That had hurt.

Standing up slowly, she kept her ears open and spread her legs. Her body was shifted so her left shoulder was facing Lazenca's general position, her left hand coming out, the hand flat with the thumb curled in, her right hand moving in to rest at her hip with the fist balled.

Her ears shifted slightly, listening for the slightest noise, her head bent down slightly as if she was staring...blindly at the ground.

Evee listened intently. She heard everything - the creak of bone, the rustle of cloth, the suddenly outburst of breath with the fist moving forward -

As her right hand came up, grasping the hand that had come out past her face and gripping it around the wrist, holding it tight, feeling the sudden rush of air as the fist entered around her space. Stepping into Lazenca's personal space, facing his now outstretched-arm, she jabbed her left elbow into his stomach before righting the fist, flicking it up into his face - before spinning on her left foot to swing her right leg out, her knee coming out to slam into his left kidney. She wasn't very strong, and her form was a little sloppy, but she moved with speed and a strange sense of sureness.

Coming down from the knee, her left arm would place itself around his hips and her butt would be pushed into his groin as she pulled on his right arm. Hefting him onto her back, it wasn't hard to simply let him now roll off over her - slamming him into the mat.

She tossed away the hand and leapt back slightly, resuming her former stance, her head keeping still.

Gritting her teeth as his claws sank into her flesh, feeling the sting of pain as blood welled around his claws, her free hand suddenly stabbed out to a small section in Lazenca's right shoulder, just beneath the clavicle and beside the shoulder joint. This was a nerve cluster, something that she would've never found under normal circumstances - unless he'd been gripping her with the offending hand, giving her a clean line to travel down. Stabbing her own fingers into this section of muscle would kill the nerves of his arm, loosening the hand muscles and unclenching those vicious claws -

Only for the knee to slam into her stomach, before a headbutt sent her to the floor. ((I'm guessing from when you say 'spike' you mean headbutt.))

She rolled painfully away from the man and forced herself to stand, coughing as she did, rubbing her neck, getting bloody fingerprints over her skin. Her bearings were skewed - where was he??
