Dana would place himself on one side of the courtyard and he'd do a bit of stretching that he didn't get done before he'd gotten there. Everything seemed to be in order at the moment, so as of right now, he would feel the battle would begin when Geas would announce it. Dana would get into his free style stance again and close his eyes before opening them to reveal they were calm with a great sense of fight within them. His left arm would be placed forward and his left hand out with a claw. Dana would then hold his right hand to his face, balled up within a fist. His angle would be faced slightly sideways, while his feet planted a little farther than shoulder's distance. Dana would smirk looking to Geas for a moment, to let him know he was ready. The afro meister would hear a song playing in his head at that moment for some reason, however, it was common for something like that to come about. [/color][/li][/ul] Geas would nod to the afro headed kid then glace to the young lady, wondering if she was ready also.

Beni had nearly fallen to the floor in that comical sort of way when Garth had stepped in and forbidden them from fighting in the gym. She was utterly taken back by the action and wondered how it was tha Dana had forgotten to ask for such crucial permission. Nevertheless, she recovered quickly, and then off they went to the courtyard. Once outside, she assumed a position opposite of Dana and did a bit of stretching herself, though she had already done so before coming to the school in the first place. She simply hoped that this time around, nothing would be interrupting them, because mixed in with that slight bit of nervousness was a string of excitement, too.
Once she had successfully oiled up her limbs, Beni pulled herself into the same stance from earlier. Unlike Dana, she didn't really have a particular fighting style, as she preferred to take on whatever style would be most effective in defeating her opponent. Not that she really got into specifics. Shaking her head, she shot a look towards Geas, giving him the wordless indication that she was fully prepared to get this show on the road. Then she settled her attention on Dana and inhaled deeply.
"Ready?" she asked with a quick flash of her teeth.

Geas would nod to them both and he'd raise up his arm.
"Begin."
Dana's eyes would flash for an odd reason and he'd look as if he was shocked. He'd charge in with his arms behind him. He ducked low to the ground and weaved around. His eyes in a strange type of look, as he kept his eyes locked on Beni's. Dana would stop a few seconds before coming in and angling his arms out forward in an attempt to fake her out. He placed his palms to the floor and began to push them forward. The afro nomad then pushed off his feet and sent them flying in front of him as he came into something of a head stand. His heels would come down to her face with a rage in his movements.
Dana would keep his eyes the same way thinking, ~Well you did say don't hold back.~ Dana would then press them to the ground and rotate backwards so his back was facing the sky, as his first foot would reach the ground. He would push it back upward so if the heels connected with her face, it would then spring back upward and crash her in the chin.

Mozzaina walked up towards the courtyard, she could feel two souls clashing nearby and she grinned "Looks like i've found the fight" she found a rock nearby the two duelists and sat on it with her legs crossed. The small girl could feel the energy colliding between the two and it was exciting. She enjoyed the feeling of a good fight. Adrenaline pumping, body's reacting even the sound of metal grinding against each other. The rush of just watching a fight was amazing and she enjoyed the feeling over and over. It also gave her a chance to assess the new competition and see whether there are any meister's to look out for.

Tojun huffed as he shot off running, leaping into the air and grabbing the ledge of a building and holding on with one hand as he turned, wall jumping back and forth from a few buildings quickly, catching his foot on the edge of a window, back flipping up and onto the roof of the building opposite, landing crouched as he slid back slightly and turned, taking off running, gaping a few buildings before sliding to a stop, catching movement out of the corner of his eye in the courtyard. "Oro?" he mumbled out loud, kneeling on the ledge of the building and watching, a grin spreading on his face.

Skye sighed. She hated the newer miesters. Well, not really hated, but was more surprised and a little miffed at their spunk and eagerness. Of course, she had been just like that when she was a newer miester. She had been going to the DWMA for three years and she still hadn't found a partner yet. She hated the fact that she was one of the oldest miester without a weapon and she hated the fact that she couldn't get much work done. Just then, a breeze kicked up and Skye was brought to the attention of noises from the courtyard below. She peered down and saw two of the younger miesters fighting. She half smiled and watched as they continued to battle. A few landing below, she could see white hair and blinked. "A weapon. A strong one at that. I wonder if he has a partner...Maybe he'll be in my class. We'll see tomorrow." Skye said to herself. Skye turned her attention back onto the two miesters. She decided to stay and see who won. Besides, she liked the breeze against her face.

As Geas uttered the magic words, Abeni became quite still. She put all of her focus on Dana and paid absolutely no attention to the spectators who were gathering. Presently she was in the metaphorical zone and wasn't about to let herself be distracted by anything. She observed Dana and his strange movements, her eyes trained just as much on him as his eyes were on her. When he at last reached her, she still hadn't moved. In her eyes, she had a slight advantage with close-ranged combat; not in the power sense but in the evasion sense. She was smaller and could move quicker than the taller Dana, and although she doubted the gap was very large, it was a chance she was going to rely on. His fake out phased her only slightly, but her reflexes were quick enough to keep her from shifting very far back.
His next move was interesting and something that Beni had not seen before, but she evaded his falling heels by stepping back just in time. His feet whizzed centimeters before her nose. As he rotated and his foot ricocheted off the ground and up towards her once more, she barely had enough time to lean to the side, and again his foot came dangerously close to grazing her face.
Not wanting to waste her chance, Beni swiftly twirled on her right foot, and when her opposite leg came 'round, she made a movement to catch Dana's arm with her left foot. (Her intentions, of course, were to kick his arm out from underneath him in an attempt to offset the balance of his hand stand.)
[ I HOPE THIS IS OKAY. I'M A NERVOUS WRECK OVER THIS WHOLE SHEBANG. And I think Beni would last at least a few moments before getting her ass handed to her. ]

Watching her from upside down, Dana would notice her actions after feeling no connection of blows, however, he knew it got dangerously close. Looking at her from where he was, Afro would catch the foot coming at his arm upside down. Not having too much time to think. Dana would use the momentum from the kick that he used to propel his foot upward to Abeni's chin to give himself leverage to push himself up.
Doing so within a quick motion, Dana came back to a stand, however, backwards. Dana would spin himself around to face his opponent, he could only imagine she had a upper hand within this decisive battle. Dana would box in after the kick was dealt, giving his speed stance and coming in quick to send out a jab with his left to the side of her abdomen, one of the lesser places with muscle. Dana would do his best to connect, if not graze her where she was.
His right hand was made into a strange fixture before punching. The middle finger was down while the rest were forward but spread out. Before he'd ball up the first he'd let out a grunt as if charging the fist up. The bones in could be heard popping slightly with the intensity. Dana's hand would then ball up and curve his elbow under to his side and shoot of the fist like a rocket, aiming for the solar plexus.
[Don't worry, you'll be fine ^o^ You're doing quite well.]

Impressive, Beni thought as she watched him utilize his momentum to flip into a standing position. She herself had quite a bit of momentum, as her attempted kick had not been delivered lightly. To keep herself from spinning further, she slammed her foot down on the ground, kicking up a small bloom of dust as she did so. Within moments, Dana had turned 'round to face her, once again attacking with a good amount of speed. She parried the jab at her abdomen by thrusting her palm into his arm at an angle so as to redirect the energy of the blow. Unfortunately, this ended up turning her body in the direction of his right fist, which was headed straight for her middle.
Knowing that she did not have enough time to dodge this attack, she simply tucked her arms at her sides and caught Dana's fist with both hands. She hadn't had enough time to properly put in enough force to slow the blow too much, however, so his punch connected with her middle anyways. And even if it wasn't at full force, it was still enough to knock the wind out of her. She ignored the pain as she grasped his fist tightly before cocking her right leg and kicking out ferociously at his solar plexus.

Dana would smirk slightly, ~Very interesting.~ He would say with a smirk, ~Dissecting movements and attacking accordingly, sure it's pretty common, but he really didn't see anyone get too serious into it. At least not as of late.~ Dana would his hand move to the side, getting thrown off a bit. Dana would look to see the kick connect with his solar plexus. Feeling the end release from his body he would retract his arms and grasp her leg at that moment with his left hand. He would grip it hard around the ankle, to make sure he had a good grasp on it and would pull would pull her closer.
Releasing her leg afterward he'd swiftly weave to the side to deliver a swift blow to her abdomen. Dana would then hop back about a foot and angle his right foot out to the side of him and lift his leg up in a crunch to his chest and release it in a speedy Teep to her right side/back.. He would figure the force of the kick would thrust her back and make her stumble slightly, which would would be good for him. At this moment he would take in a deep breath and release a sigh of cold visible breath. His arms would fall to his sides and his position of fighting would be drastically changed.
His head would droop from side to side slowly, as if trying to keep it up. Every breath he'd take would be slow and steady. However, each breath would release cold air to it. His eyes would grow less lively and have a faded look to them, as if... dead...

Dana's move to grab her leg did not surprise her; it was a common and effective maneuver and one that she had been expecting. Knowing that some of her attacks would leave her open for a counterattack never stopped her from performing them, however. She preferred taking every change she got to fight back. Her eyes narrowed as she was pulled forward, and after Dana had let go, her balance was a little off-kilter. His punch made contact with her abdomen, which made her wince, and as he backed up a bit she took the time to steady her stance. Yet she was thrown off balance once more when he delivered a swift kick to her side, causing her to stumble to the side.
Smoothly, she caught herself and then took a few steps backwards, putting more space between her and Dana. Beni watched his stance changed dramatically into some sort of... Well, she wasn't sure how to explain it, but it was creepy. The way his expression and eyes changed was even creepier. Dana always acted so bright; what was this? Nevertheless, she had become aware that he utilized at least a couple of different fighting styles. This made it a great deal more difficult to figure out what he was going to do next.
Abeni rubbed her side and made a mental note to tend to the bruises that she knew were forming after the fight. Sliding her foot out, she once again assumed a ready position, her eyes narrowed in intense focus. This fight was a lot different than the ones she'd been in up 'til now, and she was beginning to get annoyed by her inability to pound him relentlessly, as was her usual style. But this was a wonderful learning experience, and it was one that she was thoroughly enjoying otherwise.
She waited for him to make another move.

Dana would weave left to right in a rather slumped manner. It was as if he were stumbling over himself in a zombie like pattern. His legs dragged slightly and his body seemed heavy. He never stopped looking into her eyes, no matter how close he was getting. His breath was icy cold and his breathing pattern was slow. He would then let out a groaning sound. "Gruahh..."
Dana would then stop for a moment, tilting his head to the side, as if confused by her actions. "Weak..." He would say to her, stating that her actual prowess from what he saw earlier was... weak. The afro zombie would blink his eyes slowly. Letting his hands still dangle. "You're.... weak..." Dana would state. "Speed... slow... strength... failing... my interest... dying."
Dana would take in another breath and release it within cold air, as his faded eyes started to shake. "Nothing..." Dana would say at the end, his body starting to shake as well. Dana would keep his stance. His eyes lifeless still.

Or not... Abeni watched cautiously as Dana stumbled towards her, and she was feeling more confused than ever. As he spoke, however, her expression hardened. Weak? What the hell? She tightened her fists as she inhaled deeply and slowly. No, letting her anger get the best of her was not a good plan. It would be better to channel it into energy. Cracking her knuckles, she inclined her chin at Dana.
There was an upside to this situation, and it was something that Abeni was going to try and take advantage of. Normally Dana was too tall for her kicks to reach his head, but the way he was slumped over now... Beni wasted no time in closing the gap between them before twisting her body and pulling her leg into a high windmill kick, aimed straight for his face and packed full of an angry-Abeni-Fujioka amount of power. She had no idea how Dana was going to respond to this, but she supposed that whatever he did, it would be a learning experience.

Dana would catch her fist tightening up. Surely his words hit home, but the feeling up what was to come next would not come as a surprise. He would see her come in quick, in his mind a little chuckle came about. Dana would lean back for a moment the pull himself forward to meet her ankle with his left elbow. Dana's arm was aligned with his side, as if bending the entire arm the wrong way. Pops could be heard coming from the elbow as it made it's contact, his arm stretching and becoming more loose and relaxed.
Afro found his elbow in between his face and her leg. Pushing her off of his arm, her leg would probably go back to her. As it would Dana would twist to the side and he'd throw out right leg to her side again, with a raging force, that would seem highly uncommon to his demeanor at this moment.
It was time to finish this.
After the kick Dana would retract the leg and go into his undead martial arts. He would keep his arms dangled, zigging and zagging in. Dana would go into a barrage of heavy chops, as if blunt swords striking the body. The first few aiming toward the shoulders and the last few aiming at the arms. Afro would then boost his forehead to her forehead, if connected it would surely throw her for a loop, knowing that such things were very uncommon to give one another. It would probably hinder her as well, and to finish it off, he would back his hands away to his sides and place them in two tiger claws behind him and throw them forward to her collar bone and abdomen. The force of the blows would be enough to force even a person taller and thicker than himself down to the ground.

Skye watched intensely as the two younger miesters battle, taking in everything. Before she realized it, she was copying movements and making them her own. Twisting them slightly to give her an advantage. And then she slipped. She hadn't been paying attention to her placing and her foot slipped off the roof. She cursed as she began to fall down. She angled herself and caught a bar hanging out. She flipped a couple of times before she kicked off and then slide down a wall. She landed slightly awkward, almost falling again. She breathed deeply and then jumped, flipping in the process. She landed on a wall with her hand out and curled in a unique way. She sighed and then put her hands down. Her feet were on the edge of the wall and she crouched down. That's when she realized there was someone else near her. Her Soul Perception could tell that much. She wiped her head to the side and saw the kid from early. The same red eyes. Skye froze for a minute and then looked down at the fight again. It was almost over. "Sorry I keep running into you.. It's weird and I'm slightly embarassed. I was looking for this multi-form weapon who posted an ad for a meister.... I wonder where he is... Sorry, I think out loud a lot... I'll just go." Skye said and stood up.
