ROUND 2 FINAL FIGHT

At the very same time, at class 3, Block B, on the south part of the high school.

Elisabeth sat at the table near to the window. It was still class period. The teacher was teaching at that time, but Elisabeth of course, was not paying attention. She was thinking of other things.

"I wonder what Ash is doing now. I need to take my time to confront him and settle the score with him. Only Duo Lon and Beni can help me for the time being. Hmmm…..I guess he must be skipping class again right now. Perhaps he's fighting again right now."

"Elis, are you paying attention to what I'm teaching?" the teacher exclaimed at her.

"Oh, err… yeah." Elisabeth turned back and grabbed her book. The other girls near her giggled. She took no notice of them, too busy to think about Ash.

Bash!!! Pong!!!!

That was the sound of the two of them hitting each other. Kyo and Ash unleashed their fist at each other, hitting directly at each other's face. The two of them were thrown back. Kyo landed on the ground. Ash was slammed against the tree once again.

"Kyo-senpai, are you ok?" Shingo became panic. Moe tried to rush forward.

"Dame! Don't come. I'm fine. It's just a scratch. I'll beat him in no time." Kyo slowly got up and wiped his shirt. Ash also got back up, rubbing his back and cheek.

"Oh, that was unbelievable, Kyo-sama. I guess this fight won't end that early. You really deserved to be called the champion. Right guys?" He yelled at his gang members. They cheered back at him. Ash held up his hand again and unleashed his flames again around it.

"Temee." Kyo went back in position. He rubbed his mouth, then dashed forward. Ash stood there waiting for him.

"Dark Thrust!" Kyo unleashed his usual attack. Ash defended himself. He was pushed back from that attack.

"Arching Emerald Ankle!" Ash used the same tech again. Kyo dodged it and leaped backwards. He jumped near the garbage bin and kicked it high up in the air with all of his might. Ash dashed forward to avoid the bin. He unleashed a burning fist that destroys the bin in an instant. The crowd was getting more excited with that.

"You're trapped!" Kyo was above him. He hit Ash down to the ground with both his hands. Ash crashed to the ground. Kyo unleashed another High Jump Kick straight at Ash. Ash released his flames all over the area. But Kyo went on with his attack. Seeing that there was no other option at the moment, Ash countered the attacked with his own leg.

"Excessive Emerald Ankle." That was more powerful than the previous attack. The two of them clashed at each other and was thrown aback by the force that clashed together.

Kyo and Ash landed back onto the ground. Kyo of course, was thrown back further since he was hit with a DM, but he quickly got back up with a leap, adjusted his gloves and threw his bandana away. Ash on the other hand, got up slowly and stretched his fingers, relaxing them.

"Time to end this fight." Ash jeered at Kyo.

"Grrr…. No one can withstand the flames of Kusanagi. Now try feeling the pain." Kyo lifted his left hand high up. A beast of flame erupted on his hand, then it got bigger. Kyo's body seemed to be burning, but it's not, he's focusing all of his power at the flames. He was about to use Serpent Wave.

Ash looked at Kyo for a moment, and then smiled. He held both of his hands in front and began to summon his own flames. The green flames began to spin together like a ball of fire. (You should know what tech is this, I don't remember the name). The ball of fire eventually grew bigger and bigger and bigger. Strong winds began to blow around that area, causing most of the students to retreat to a safer place. Not even Shingo and Moe could withstand the strong powerful vortex around the two of the ultimate fighters But Iori remained still at one corner. He was waiting for the outcome of the attack. Kyo was about to attack first as he reversed his leg.

"Ding dong ding dong!!!!!!!!" the school bell rang all of a sudden, signaling the end of class and the shift of the next class.

Kyo stopped, let down his hand and wiped out his flames. Surprisingly, Ash followed the same way, wiping out his green flames.

"What's the problem, Kyo-sama?" Ash was a little surprised.

"Damn it. It's the next class. If I skip this one, Yuki will be mad at me. Listen Ashy boy, I'll challenge you again at a later time, so stop doing nonsense with the mirror." Kyo pointed at Ash.

"Oh well, I guess that's it. I'll be waiting." replied Ash.

"Shingo, Moe, guys, disband." Kyo grabbed his jacket from one of them and hurried off. The rest returned to their classes as well. Even the spectators began to shift focus back to their studies.

As Kyo rushed past Iori, he said, "It's up to you right now, Iori. If you can't do it, I'll be there again." Kyo hurried back to class.

"Temee…" mumbled Iori. He turned to his gang.

"Guys, let's go back to the rock star club. I'll take you on again later with my own hands, you bastard." He jeered at Ash and then walked in the opposite direction back to the clubhouse. The rest followed him.

Shingo and Moe looked at each other for the moment, then turned around and return to their respective classes.

On the other hand, Ash went back to his gang, who were still hiding at a corner.

"Guys, let's go somewhere better. Let's skip school for today. Besides, I don't have the mood to study right now."

Ash walked down the path. Those who were very loyal to him followed him immediately, while some of them returned to their classes.

That was the end of the first battle. There were still more to come later.

Back to the field.

K' got up from his sleep. Whip approached him.

"So are you feeling better now?"

"Hmm, I guess so."

Kula, who was playing Frisbee again at that time, rushed back to him.

"You're awake, K'. Let's play."

"The only thing you know is play. " K' mumbled.

"Don't be mad, we're skipping class, remember?"

At that time the messenger returned.

"Oh, you're back. What was the outcome?" K' rubbed his chin.

"Errr… apparently, the match was postponed."

"What…….. what do you mean 'postponed'?" K' stood up.

"Kyo went back to class as soon as the next bell rang, that's the main reason."

"Damn it." K' slammed the tree. Kula and Whip stood up. The rest of them gathered near him.

"Let's just go back. I'll challenge Ash in a week's time." K' walked back to the path. The rest of them followed him from behind. The fact was, K' was not satisfied since he hasn't gained his revenge against Ash for beating him the last time.

As they walked down the path, someone was watching them not far away. It was Hotaru. Apparently she was not satisfied with Ash either. She left that area and returned to the kung-fu club not far from there.
