A circular stone arena surrounded by a deep moat. It is one of a few such arenas currently in use, and is blocked off from the others by 3 meter high netting that runs around the perimeter of the moat. This lets spectators as well as participants see how the other teams are doing.
This match: Tag between Inohana Yamanaka and Agni Enpisee.

Agni stood quietly at one end of the arena. Earlier, while lurking in a corner of the lobby, he had seen the match-ups. A few obvious matches drew his interest. Of course, his own match-up was one of those.
Once his opponent entered the field, she would be given a once over, and Agni would confirm. Yep, he could definitely turn this fight into a comical one. Ever the courteous gentleman, he waited for the lady to make the first move.

Right. Time to determine who's "it."
1 is Inohana.
2 is Agni.

After ten minutes of solid nothing, Agni made a move. Had he grown impatient? Or had he simply taken this long to get the clue that Inohana wanted him to make the first move? Perhaps something else? All thoughts were indiscernable behind his mask.
"Come now," his deep voice rang out the stadium as he began approaching Inohana at a leisurely pace, hands in his pockets and strides large, "You have to approach me. You can't tag me unless you come closer." His head bobbed slightly with each step, the very image of someone casually along.
Once in range, assuming Inohana didn't avoid his approach (and why should she when she was "it"?), Agni extended his hand and ominously leveled it at
her forehead with a middle finger curved and restrained by the thumb.
THWACK! [Simple E-rank hard physical]
The flick landed loudly and square on Inohana's forehead, its painful presence leaving a lasting red spot. The hand was retracted into a shrug instead as Agni explained, "See? Now I'm it."
The scoreboard flipped down a number, displaying the one point Inohana had just gained thanks to Agni's efforts.
Agni's hand returned to Inohana's face, this time to lightly pat her cheek in an obliging fashion, like an adult looking down on a child [Simple E-rank hard physical]. The scoreboard changed once palm made contact with cheek, giving Agni one point for his successful contact. "And now you're back to being it," Agni finally finished explaining all the boring stuff.
Now, he could finally go around to talking about the more interesting part after dully trudging through spelling out the means of this game. His mask as emotionless as ever and his voice still monotonously reciting, he offered a deal, "There are others participating in this same game, and chances are, our points will be compared to their's after all this is done. In truth, we're not enemies, but allies. The more times we tag each other, the higher each of our points will increase, so what say you? Should we have a full contact exchange of a flurry of blows?". He had leaned back as he began to give this deal, hands returning back into his pockets in a display of lowered guard and open target. Only at the end did the hands leave the constraints of his packet, and it was so he could tap on the cheek he turned to his opponent, demonstrating exactly where might be a good first spot to hit.Chakra Pool: 350
Stamina Pool: 190/200
