A/N: Listening to Steve Conte as of the moment...was extremely uncomfortable just a while ago because my ass was eating my new hi-cut underwear. Gah...saved by Lipton's Milk Tea, a rainbow of joy in every cup ...enjoy!xD

Mano A Mano

Oneshot

The argument had been blown way out of proportion.

The All Starz and the White Tigers had abandoned the idea of stopping the two from erupting into an all out can fight. What had Mariah and Emily been arguing about in the first place?

Oh yeah...one of them had made a snappy comeback about how second-grade the other's fighting style was. The retort was that the other's fighting style betrayed she didn't know a thing about blading and so on and so forth...

Michael sighed.

"Once they start there's no stopping them, is there?" he told Lee beside him.

"They could keep this up for hours," replied the neko-jin.

"We could wait till they wear themselves out!" Kevin suggested cheerfully. "Like Energizer Bunnies!"

"Or we could wait till Miss Judy comes and she'll take care of this situation," said Ed.

"What are they arguing about now anyway?" asked the American team's captain.

"They've moved on to arguing about who's got the better culture some thirty minutes ago," said Gary thoughtfully. "But I haven't been listening."

Lee smacked himself on the forehead. "This is getting out of hand."

"Oh cheer up!" said the basketball star among them. "It's just a matter of time until one of them says a retort that the other wouldn't be able to think of a snappy comeback for."

Michael and Lee let out twin sighs.

"I'm hungry," Kevin said absently and made to get food. "Want anything, Gary?" he asked but tripped over a camera by Steve's feet.

"Oi!"

"Steve! What—you've been filming them?"

"Be quiet about it!" said the bulky teen. "I figured out this would be good to film. It's pretty entertaining..."

Kevin shrugged and the rest of the boys gave him odd looks.

"Well you've got tiny breasts, missy!" Mariah's voice had risen to a screech, as if their bantering wasn't loud enough, catching the attention of the rest of the training room's inhabitants.

Michael couldn't resist sniggering and Lee hid his face in his hand.

"Oh yeah?" Emily snapped back. "I'm MUCH more prettier than you!"

Her pink-haired adversary eyed her from head to foot. "Oh REALLY?! Where specifically?!"

Emily blanched as she couldn't think of what to say. Bursts of laughter came from their masculine audience. Ed was clapping and shaking his head in amusement.

That was it.

The fight was over and Mariah had won.

END

A/N: Don't get the joke? Just a chuckle would do...or nod your head...and I shall be on my merry way ...enjoy!xD and ciAo...
