[Wakizashi]

Tai only

killing allowed

Dragon of the north in sig.

Saito is kneeling on a cushion while his arms are crossed over his legs and his head bowed as he awaited for his opponent.

 

[Urda]

Kazuhiko in Signature.

Kazuhiko struts into the Dojo. His expression stern and his body shine with confidence. He wears a black keikogi with a black undershirt and tight black pants, and wears open-toe sandals with socks.

"Your opponent is I... KAZUHIKO!?!"

 

[Wakizashi]

Saito hears the door close and immediately opens his eyes before calmly raising his head before his opponent announces himself. He notices his opponent is wearing black and has a stern look on his face so saito decides to get to business and allow his fist to finally do the talking.

Let our souls resonate with the clash of our fist.

Saito then takes the forward horse stance with his legs slightly bent and his weight shifted to the front. His left is extended forward, fist closed while his right is retracted back to his body by his abdomen and his knuckles facing upward. From there Saito waits to take his ready stance before attacking.

 

[Urda]

Tsk.

"Samurai nonsense..."

Kazuhiko, with irritation written across his face after hearing [Saito] speak, fixed his eyes on [Saito] as he read him. "He is well taught in hand to hand combat by his posture" he thought, whilst studying [Saito's] stance. He calmly inhale and exhale and spread his legs apart at the width of the shoulders, his knees are slightly bent, his head and neck erect and is watching closely as he enter the "Natural" stance. Kazuhiko raised his arm to his chest and form the sparring sign ("Half-sheep" hand-seal). "Kai!"

Without hesitation, Kazuhiko dashes forward lifting off with his right foot, gaining momentum. As he meets within 10 inches from [Saito's] position, he move and halts at [Saito's] left side (beside him) braking with his left foot which is in the front and his right foot in the back. He places weight on his left foot and transfers the weight into his left arm. He leans in, swinging his left arm from right to left, delivering a horizontal chop to [Saito's] neck. The force of the attack would knock [Saito] on consciousness.

Saito remains in his ready stance till his opponent unleashes a lateral chop with his left hand from Saito's left side. Saito blocks his opponent's lateral chop by intercepting it with his left forearm. At that moment Saito puts his opponent in an arm lock by wrapping around the opponent's left arm with his own left arm. At the same time Saito twist his torso to his right while extending his left leg against his opponent's same left foot as he tries to slow down his momentum, allowing Saito to pull his opponent while unbalancing him.

The moment saito noticed his opponent is unbalanced, Saito fully extends his right arm with clenched fist against his opponents left side. The impact would push his opponent a couple meters away from saito as he releases his grip on his opponent's arm.

After Kuzohiko chop was intercepted, he retracted his steps - jolting back to mid-ranged (about 6 meters) - to create some distance between him and Saito. He continued his momentum and dash towards Saito once again; leaving no time for Saito to read his movements. Mid-way, he leaps into the air and deliver a heel drop (extending his right leg into the air and crashing down with the force of gravity) aimed at Saito's head which would damage the brain and normally kill a person. Although, assuming Saito would block the attack, Kazuhiko would bounce off the attack and maneuver himself so that he is crouching below and step up delivering a palm thrust to Saito's jaw with his right hand. The force of the attack would knock Saito's head up and leave him open for his assault: a left punch aimed at his stomach and after; a powerful jab to the left side of his face which would force him to the ground.
