((Aikido, brief training, plus some apparent natural talent!
I would so Grendel.))
Farley nodded, and someone from the crowd brought him Knife. He slapped it on his wrist and activated, summoning a combat knife, 8 inches long, serrated on the outer edge, inner half.
"C'mon!" he said.

Anatoly traced Skulltap and assumed a stance which had the insides of his wrists towards him, but was otherwise normal. "Ready when you are."

Farley grinned nastily as he pulled out Amplify. He slapped it over Knife, tracing it as he dashed forward. Just before he got to Anatoly, his knife flashed brightly.
Now, it was a sword, simple and smooth and sharp.
And totally aiming right for Anatoly's gut.

Anatoly hadn't expected Farley to get two Mystickers. No matter. He relaxed and let muscle memory and trained reflex take over.
The sword is oriented on a vertical axis, with the blade down. He's going for a simple thrust.
Anatoly stepped in and to the side with his right foot, swinging his left arm down and knocking the blade away with the side of his hand on the flat part, ready to still knock it away on the flat even if Farley twisted the blade sideways. He spun and, rather than going for Farley's wrist, delivered a knuckle strike at Farley's temple.

Farley blocked the strike with the back of his left hand, then continued the move by sending a quick jab for Anatoly's face. He seemed competent even without the sword in play.
"There isn't a member of the Crew who's not proficient in martial arts," he said, stabbing again.

"I guess you can't all be as bad as Wilde," Anatoly jested as he parried grabbed for the jabbing hand's wrist and arched out of the way of the stab.

The fight had just started and his blood was already racing. Mike watched as Farley charged Anatoly and was stunned when his simple knife (that seemed to appear from nowhere, although he knew better now) turned into a sword trying to stab him. Anatoly obviously had some type of previous combat training because without so much as a flinch he sidestepped the blade and knocking it away and then threw a punch right at Farley's head. He watched as Farley blocked the attack withe his off hand and then threw a jab with it seeming unworried that he couldn't use his sword currently. He knew this would be an amazing fight and couldn't wait to see what else would happen, especially since he would get to see some mystickers in action. Maybe if he was lucky he would find someone using Ice and he could pick up a few tricks, although he already had a couple good ones in mind.

Anatoly found that his grab missed, since his increasing fatigue clouded his vision for a second. Farley took the opportunity to slam an elbow straight at his gut.
"Actually, without Mystickers, there's no one that can beat Wilde," he said briefly.

((Speaking of Ice, since Farley has Amplify and Knife can Anatoly have Ice and Skulltap?))
Anatoly semi-sluggishly deflected the elbow. "All I had is Skulltap, and all you ******** just look away!" Anatoly snapped in response as he swung a knife-edge strike (i.e. flat thumb-side of the hand) at Farley's back, where if Farley were to see the strike, his eyes would have to cross Anatoly's.

((That would be a no. Is either of them a Support-class Sticker? You can't fight with just a Support.))
No one in the crowd seemed to want to talk to Mike. They were extremely into Challenge Day. It seemed like a tradition to them.

((Right, because the Challenge was for Amplify. It wouldn't be much of a fight if all he could use is Amplify, a Support, with no Combat Sticker.))
Farley chose to take the hit, stumbling forward.
Which was part of his plan. He was now in perfect range as he spun, the sword flashing out for Anatoly in a broad arc.
