Things had turned out better for Houshi, now that she was dedicating herself more to becoming a better Page. She'd seen her world, and even had a chat with her odd youma friend about it--and it was strange to think of Kiyokinu as a friend, but they'd run into each other enough that Houshi was actually comfortable saying that. Plus, she now had her signet ring, and a little magic from it, that could make her smal, slight figure much more intimidating.
This time, when she came upon a Lieutenant who was very much not Thorite, she paused. She would not leap to attack, not yet.
"What are you up to, Officer?" She asked, and there was an almost playful lilt to her voice.

Wow. Okay. That was kind of hot, he mused, as the girl rumbled up to him, standing tall and voice booming. "Oh, you know," he said with a sleazy smile, "Just making life on Earth a little easier for some people." Sure, it was by causing their deaths instead, but he didn't see that as a big deal. He really bought into all the "overpopulation" crap. The less people, the better.

Houshi put her hands onh er hips, regarding him with narrowed, mistrustful eyes. She remembered what Thorite had said, about protecting people. Was that what everyone in the Negaverse thought? That they were helping people? Saving them by killing them?
How disturbing.
"And how, exactly, have you been bettering people's lives?" She asked, relying on the thunder of her Aspect to pump her up a little bit as she strode forward. It was hard not to feel powerful when thunder rolled under your footsteps, after all..

Arsenolite shivered. Wow, yeah, no, that was extremelyhot. She sounded so intimidating. And he loved it. Giving her a wicked grin and a wink, he replied, "Cutting down on pollution. Saving the miserable from their dreary existence. Making sure that us in the Negaverse have the power to protect Earth from you space-loving creeps."

Ahg. Lovely. This Lieutenant was, in fact, one of those.
Well then.
She strode forward, and without an ounce of hesitation, swung her fist directly for his gut. She was not going to hesitate. Not when he acted as if human lives, the people the Negaverse hurt and killed, were just so much dust and detritus to be cleaned. As if that was at all an acceptable way to think about lives taken and humans sacrificed.
"Pig," she spat, a last insult added to the thundering heft of her fist.

Arsenolite grinned as he took the hit with an "oomph". Oh, wow. She was strong. Tough. He liked that in a girl. "Oink oink," he snarked, gripping her wrist with both hands and yanking her forward in an attempt to spin them around and force her to lose her balance.

The problem with the way that he spun her was that Houshi was a dancer. And this? The way he tried to twirl them? It was a dance.
"If you're going to do this with me," she said, moving her arms in his grip so that she could grab his wrists and leaning into the momentum, the way she would if she was doing a pas de deux,, "you owe me dinner." It was a playful taunt, but he did seem to be distracted by her, so she might as well use whatever was at hand to keep him on edge.

Arsenolite wasn't expecting her to turn this into a dance. Like a dance dance instead of a fight dance. "Oh yeah?" he said with a smirk, letting her take his wrists and holding still for a moment. "Tell me your favorite place and we'll go, baby. I don't discriminate, y'know." With that, he kicked out at her ankles.

Houshi snorted.
"Maybe another time," she said. She sohuld have bene prepared for the kick to the ankles, he seemed like the type, but she wasn't, really, and it did take her off-balance--but she kept her grip on his wrists, in an effort to pull him down with her. Just like with Thorite, if she could get him on the ground, she could get herself a couple of advantages. If nothing else, she'd have some very easy leverage to knee him in the gut and then shove him off, so she could finish this fight. It would be another victory, and that was something she could absolutely be proud of.

Arsenolite grinned, letting her pull him down so he could land on top of her. He straddled her hips and sat up, grateful he hadn't landed on his knees so he didn't have to deal with broken kneecaps or anything of the sort. Man, this was hot. He really liked this chick. Too bad she was on the wrong side. He could've seen himself with her. And the flirt-fighting was fantastic. He leaned in close to her face. "You sure?" he asked with a smirk, gazing into her eyes, "Cuz I have a feeling you'd like it." At this point, he didn't care if she ended up somehow getting the drop on him. She was hot, he was hot, things could be so much hotter if she would just let go of whatever was holding her back. He didn't expect her to; at least, not in the first fight. Maybe he could convince her the next time.

Houshi reached up, gripping the front of his uniform and tugging him down so their faces were inches from each other.
"You couldn't handle me," she said, in a low whisper.
Then, she brought up her knee as hard as she could. He could go down, and she would leave him on the ground.
....But this was fun. She hoped he didn't take it too personally, because she might like to see him again.

"That's what you—" he'd begun to say before she kneed him right in the stomach. And his next word wheezed out of him "—think." He coughed a bit as he collapsed, face smushed into the pavement. Well. That would look real pretty tomorrow. By God, he thought he was in love. Wow. Wow. This girl was something else. He didn't even care that she'd won the fight. Honestly, he had kinda hoped she would the entire time anyway. She was hot and cute and holy crap he wanted to meet her again. So, so badly. It took him a long while to recover enough to be able to stand up and get home.
