| The rapid, rhythmic sound of leather colliding against leather rang out into the gym, each thump creating an echoing beat. Hyousuke's fists were a blur as they flew at the bag, hammering a sharp, practised combo into it, before retracting back for just a moment so that he could gather himself, and start over again. How long he'd been there was anyone's guess. Since he was training technique rather than fitness, he'd switched his Quirk on, and could have gone until his arms had withered away into nothingness. He could've just started, or he could've been there for hours, practising that one combination until it was etched into his muscle memory.
To him, training was like meditation. It was a way to shut out the world, and to forget everything that was happening around him. He didn't have to think about what his peers were doing, or what he'd have to do to even come close to being on their level. He didn't have to endure the judgemental gazes levelled at him, or the pity that more 'kindly' individuals might've spared him. No, it was just him and his thoughts in there. He could be at peace, if only for a little while each day.

[attr="class","ke"] [attr="class","ex"]I Will Not Be Like My Father [attr="class","rh"]  ❝ Kagami always thought it was strange that they called them rings when they were obviously squares
| Kagami wasn’t sure why she was here. Not in a philosophical sense of wondering why she was alive, nor in the more broad sense of why she was at UA. No she wasn’t sure why exactly she found herself in this gym. It was pretty large and seemed focused on working on combat skills. Punching bags, speed bags, even a few boxing rings ro spar in. Some staff members were here and there to make sure things didn’t get too out of control. It seemed like most people were more working on their hand to hand combat techniques than their quirks. And considering the power of some of the student’s quirks it made sense why they wouldn’t want to use them here.
Dressed up in her normal workout clothing she looked around trying to decide if she really wanted to be here or not. Originally Kagami had thought that she would be able to get some practice in marital combat but now she realized that she hadn’t thought far enough ahead to really get a partner. Before she could turn around to leave however one of the staff members came up to her with a wide grin on his face. Just by looking at him it was obvious he was some kind of martial artist.
“You looking for some practice?” the taller man asked with a wide grin across his face. Clasping a hand on her shoulder he didn’t seem to need an answer as he started to lead her towards one of the empty boxing rings. Kagami always thought it was strange that they called them rings when they were obviously squares but that was a question for another time.
“Hey, Suzuki, get over here. Punching a bag all day will only get you so far. Get some practice in with another student. Who knows, maybe one of you will learn something!” The instructor said with the wide grin he wore never leaving his face. He did seem a little gung ho about all of this though. He at least knew who the other student was but there was little chance he knew who Kagami was, for all he knew she could be a third year. Or maybe he was just going off a hunch. Either way it seemed like he had set her up to fight this other student, who she didn’t really recognize, despite the fact that they are in the same class.

| Stopping mid-swing, Hyousuke drew his fist back, keeping a loose guard down by his chest, and looked over at the instructor calling him over. For someone that had been there for some unspecified amount of time, he looked remarkable good - barely a bead of sweat on him and not a single ragged breath. What little exhaustion that was present was probably more a product of the heat inside the gym than anything else - get enough sweaty, straining people in an enclosed room together at once, and any place would end up like that, though.
He walked over, unsure of whether he would have to take off his gloves or not. It was hardly as if he was opposed to some bare-knuckle brawling - he was quite familiar with it, after all, and it wasn't as though he'd be using them when he was out in the field. But then again, it was only sparring. Having some safety gear on - gumshields included - probably would have been a good idea. By the time he'd gotten to her, he'd taken them off and had them grasped loosely in his hands while he waved to greet the both of them. He wasn't sure who either of the two were, but would be happy to acquaint himself.
"I don't think we've met." He said, calm and confident as ever. Out of habit, he stuck a glove under his arm so he could extend it out to her, but stopped halfway through. "Right. Sorry. I'd shake your hand, but I just came off the bags." Superhuman though his stamina was, Hyousuke wasn't immune to his hands smelling off after being enclosed in cloth and leather for God only knew how long. His hand returned to his side, hanging loosely without anything to hold. "Suzuki Hyousuke. It's a pleasure."

| Putting down the water bottle and towel she had brought with herself Kagami caught sight of the other student who the instructor had called over. Like most everyone else at the school she didn’t really know him by appearance nor did she much care to. She had never been the kind to know a lot of people, that was more her sister’s territory. However with the gloves on it did seem like he knew what he was doing. She hadn’t had a good chance for a proper sparring match since she got here, and before that. Well she still couldn’t actually beat Sato before she had left for UA so she did need to up her skills more. Just making sure she was in great physical shape didn’t mean anything if she couldn’t actually apply that fitness towards practical things.
“Udea Kagami, class one A,” she introduced herself to the other student and by proxy to the instructor who had been so gung ho about getting the two of them to duke it out in the ring. His lack of a handshake wasn’t something she even considered, as his logic behind why he didn’t want to do so was pretty sound. Plus it would be better to keep her hands dry before any kind of fighting.
“Alright! Now that introductions are out of the way let's see what you two can do. I’ll be watching close so keep things clean, and don’t go crazy with any kind of quirk usage. Last thing I need is another talking to from the administration about two students nearly beating one another to death,” the instructor said with a hearty laugh as he produced a pair of gloves similar to what Suzuki had on and offered them to Kagami. She simply shook her head and pulled out a very different pair of gloves from the pockets of her sweat pants. Unlike any kind of fighting gloves these looked more the kind used on a swat team or the military. Designed to be nice and grippy along the palm and fingers so they wouldn't lose grip when their hands got sweaty. Kagami wasn’t much of a boxer or one to do much punching either, her technique was more focused on takedowns and submission holds. She knew that there was some kind of name for it, though she couldn’t remember it at the moment. Once her gloves were on she got into the ring and took up one corner, waiting for her opponent to do the same and the instructor to officially start the fight.

| Hyousuke's eyes were trained on her, looking her over to see what he could glean about her from sight alone. She didn't seem to be a brawler like him - she didn't have the frame for it. Or was it that her Quirk made her into one? Was her body hiding strength that he didn't know about? He supposed he'd find out soon enough. The gloves threw him for a loop as well - he'd not seen their kind before. The closest thing he could equate them to were handwraps or the fingerless gloves he'd seen on occasion, but he suspected that wasn't what they were for. He'd have to pay attention, make some mental notes for after the fight. Or maybe ask her after - get some answers straight from the horse's mouth.
He gave a small bow in place of touching gloves with her - given the distance between them, and that they'd likely start swinging the moment that they met, he supposed that meeting in the middle of the ring to do it probably wouldn't work out well. She'd just have to settle for that if she wanted politeness pre-match. He took a loose stance, hand before his head, feet angled and apart, and eyes trained on her - watching for any kind of tell that he could see. How did she fight? With her hands? Her feet? Up close, or at range? Was she a slugger or would she try to wear him down gradually? His fists tightened with the anticipation.
The moment he was allowed, Hyousuke shot forward. For someone of his build, he moved shockingly fast - infinite stamina meant that he didn't have to worry about exerting himself too much, after all. His guard was close and held tight, and his stance solid - the way he saw it, if she wanted to knock him down, she'd have a hell of a time trying.

[attr="class","ke"] [attr="class","ex"]I Will Not Be Like My Father [attr="class","rh"] ❝ Kagami’s combat stance was probably a bit strange for someone who practiced a more traditional martial art.
| Kagami’s combat stance was probably a bit strange for someone who practiced a more traditional martial art. Ultimately it came down to the fact that her stance was actually the same one that she had been taught when she was learning to shoot rifles and pistols. Legs spread, one slightly ahead of the other but her body was squared off with her target. Both hands were extended out almost fully with a slight bend in the elbows and her left hand was slightly further than her right. For the briefest of moments she wondered if there was anyone here who could give her some training with firearms. Not exactly a fully heroic thing but considering her quirk didn’t have many heroic uses it wasn’t something that bothered her.
In the moment though she studied her opponent. He appeared to be still rather fresh, she wasn’t familiar with whatever style of fighting he was using but his form was tight and he was definitely ready to go. If she had to guess based on those gloves he was probably a boxer, or kickboxer. He probably wasn’t going to be doing many fancy maneuvers with his hands in those gloves. Alright. She’d take this careful at first since there was the possibility that he had some secret techniques hidden up his sleeve.
“Alright. Fight!” the instructor shouted. Just as he did Kagami’s sparring partner moved. For someone of his build he was moving fast. Most likely he planned to end this quick or he planned to end this quickly, or he had some kind of speed quirk. Keeping her hands halfway between fully open and fists she simply took a few steps out of the corner. She wasn’t on the offensive here, her style was primarily a defensive one. While she could still attack of need her main focus was on letting the other person come at her and let their own attack be their downfall. For the time being she would simply focus on dodging or deflecting whatever kind of attack he came at her with. If he did turn out to do some kickboxing she would be at an advantage. Kicking looked cool when it was used but in most practical fights losing your footing was a dangerous option, unless you were sure the enemy can’t exploit your compromised balance.

| Hyousuke barrelled forward, half of him focussing on overwhelming her with strikes, and the other wondering what he was in for with her. Her gloves weren't like anything he'd ever seen - he couldn't glean anything from them. Her stance was odd too - he couldn't recognise it from any of the styles that he'd even seen, let alone gone up against. Something deep inside knew that he should have approached with some kind of caution, but his reckless nature won out, and he kept to his tried-and-tested strategy of overwhelming foes with a barrage of strikes.
The second he was close enough, his left shot out in a short, sharp jab. It was more of a testing blow than anything else - a punch to probe her defences, and see how she reacted to him. He followed it with another. And one more - then a heavy right. Slower than his others, but still quick, and with a significant amount more power behind it. His blows were clean and practised, engraved into his muscle memory, without a single wasted twitch of his muscles. While his footwork and his precision may have left something to be desired, it was obvious he was no stranger to fighting.

[attr="class","ke"] [attr="class","ex"]I Will Not Be Like My Father [attr="class","rh"] ❝ Boxing never seemed all that useful in an actual fight. At least to her anyway.
| It was almost too easy to know what to expect from her opponent, even if it weren’t for the gloves he had on the stance would be a pretty dead giveaway that he was a boxer. While Kagami didn’t know too much about boxing she did have a few opinions on the kinds of fighting styles like it that were more for entertainment than practical use. Sure if you were going up against someone without any training as a boxer then you’d have an upper hand but a form limited to just punches, and possibly kicks in some styles, it never seemed all that useful in an actual fight. At least to her anyway.
As she had hoped her opponent came in for the first attack. A strike from his left. Quick and efficient but easy to deflect. Using the back of her right hand to simply guide his punch so it wouldn’t hit her, while at the same time side stepping to her own left just slightly made sure it wouldn’t connect. The next two punches came just on the heels of the first and Kagami used the same technique to deflect those as well. Keeping herself from getting tunnel vision and only focusing on one part of his attacks she saw the larger swing coming from the right before it was even close to hitting her. His strikes were confident and came with the speed of someone who had been doing this for a while. But this difference in time between his quicker but lighter attacks was enough to give Kagami and opening. Stepping with an angle she went right and forwards, bringing her right side closer to her opponent. Unless he had some kind of quirk that could change the trajectory of his own swing then it would go right by her. And if it did the plan was simple, grab hold of the wrist with both of her hands while at the same time lowering her stance, pulling his arm down, and then running into the midsection of his body. Even though he was a good deal larger than she was the combination of the momentum from his punch plus the leverage she would have on his arm would easily flip him over her and onto the mat like floor of the ring. That is assuming he didn’t have some kind of quirk or skill that would allow him to counter her move in some way.

| It was subtle, and in the heat of the moment, it probably wouldn't be that easy to see, but Hyousuke had started to frown at how easily she batted away his blows. They were weak ones, sure, intended only to prompt a reaction from her, but it was still disconcerting to see her nullify them without much strain. It would've been one thing if she blocked them, or dodged them. At least then he could try and slug it out with her, or try and engage in a battle of attrition. But she'd parried them, and he had to admit, that had him worried.
His eyes followed her as she darted to his side - though it was too late for him to pull his swing back. As he looked down, it started to dawn on him what was happening. Every twitch and movement she made, the very second she touched him... The intricacies of a fight weren't lost on him, brutish as his style and appearance were. But there wasn't anything he could do about it but brace himself for the impact. He grit his teeth and squared his stance, trying to make it as difficult for her as possible, but it was no good. It wasn't something he was trained for.
A resounding slam rang out into the air, accompanied immediately by a pained grunt. There was no doubt about it - her technique had worked, and he'd hit the mat like a sack of bricks. But that was nothing to him. Embarrassing, yes, but he'd had far worse from far stronger. Hyousuke hauled himself to his feet the moment he had his bearings, and assumed his stance like nothing had happened. He'd have to be quicker, more efficient - strike where it hurt. Perhaps if he could get in close and smother her, she wouldn't have the room to move effectively, and he could wear her down. Or maybe he could hit her somewhere sensitive - her jaw, or her floating rib - and put her out of commission.
Again, he dived in, stance low and guard up. He was powerful, to be sure. He was a wall of densely-packed muscle, a bull barrelling towards its target. But any matador skilled enough could see through that reckless charge.

[attr="class","ke"] [attr="class","ex"]I Will Not Be Like My Father [attr="class","rh"] ❝ Maybe her opponent would change up his attacks knowing that his initial all out assault hadn’t worked out as planned.
| As soon as her opponent had hit the ground Kagami backed away. Normally she would take that moment to pounce and pin them down but not in this kind of sparring match. Maybe her opponent would change up his attacks knowing that his initial all out assault hadn’t worked out as planned. He did pick himself up pretty quickly which she was impressed by. Either he had a high tolerance for pain or his quirk helped him in some way through this. Then again the spring loaded floor was rather forgiving to any kind of fall on it.
It was almost disappointing how her opponent simply charged at her with the same kind of intensity that he did the first time. Apparently he hadn’t learned his lesson the first time. Well now class was in session and Kagami was about to hand out a schooling. Waiting half a second it took for him to get closer she suddenly stepped forward quickly closing the few foot gap that was left between them. The goal was to take him off guard and attack him before he expected to be in range to do the same.
Just as she was within range Kagami’s right hand shot out to grab her opponents right wrist. If she was able to get a solid grip then the next move would be to pull on his arm and turn her right side back. Either this would pull him forward entirely or it would just pull his arm down to open up his guard. No matter what the next move was the same. Her left hand would go to his chest and grab at his shirt at the same time moving her left leg just behind his calves. The final blow would be to push back on his chest with her left hand while her left leg would sweep at his legs from behind and send him backwards to the ground at which point she would let go of his shirt as he fell and once again back off and put a little distance between them, though this time not quite enough to let him get a full charge on her.

| Her step-in didn't shock him. In fact, he smiled. She was close, and that meant he could smother her. If he was close enough she could flail her arms all she wanted, but she'd have to move back to move her arms effectively - as far as he knew, anyway. His experience was mostly with slugfests, and darting in to overwhelm opponents before they had a chance to retaliate. Open up their defences with a heavy shot, and keep the pressure on them with a barrage of punches, kicks, elbows, knees, and whatever else he could fit into the fray.
Her hand move to his wrist, and somewhere in his mind, he seemed to accept this as an inevitability. That she was, no matter what he did, going to counter him. So he'd do what he always did when he was outmatched, and just trade blows until one of them couldn't take it any more. With his left, he let out a jab. It was far from the pulled, probing pokes that he'd used to test her defences and see what she did. It was like a gunshot - swift and precise, a single sharp blow to her face.
In the few seconds he had, his fist was driven at her face as many times as he could manage. While the fact that it was his left diminished its power - the distance only compounding the problem - he still managed to exert a surprising degree of strength. His right struggled at her grip, using whatever leverage it could find to try and wrest itself from her hand, but it was too little too late. By the time he realised what was happening, he'd started his tumble backwards, and once more he hit the ground with a resounding slam.
Yet again, he rose to his feet, though the look on his face was distinctly more frustrated. Twice, he'd charged at her, and twice, he'd been tossed around like it was nothing. He wasn't even sure if he'd managed to get any good hits in on her while they were close. Nevertheless, he raised his fists again, and advanced - though with a great deal more care. His body lurched forward, as if to strike at her like a bull again, only stop halfway.
A feint - something to make her move, so he could step in and turn the tide.

| Kagami didn’t count he blows to her face. She didn’t think she’d be able to get through this fight without taking some hits. Luckily the glove he had on softened the attacks some. Much better than a bare fist would be against her. It stung for sure but nothing she wasn’t used to, pain was simply something she had learned to cope with. His attacks however did nothing to stop him from falling to the ground. Once again Kagami backed away and let him get up. She wasn’t worried about pinning him at the moment. For now she was trying to gauge her opponent and so far she wasn’t impressed. He was good for sure but his style was limited and against what she had trained in it wouldn’t do him much good.
As he got up again Kagami was slightly impressed when he came at her a bit slower this time. So he was changing up his tactics to deal with her, perhaps he might be slightly better than she had first pegged him. But that also meant she would be going on the defensive again. She was sure of her ability to counter most anything he could likely throw at her. But she needed to still be careful as her opponent was still a largely unknown variable.
And then he charged her again, a bit of a letdown but not unexpected. Once again Kagami took a half step forward to meet him. The only problem was that he hadn’t gone as far as she expected, putting them close but he wasn’t close enough that she could do anything effective. If she were just in a slug fest then she could punch him but she wasn’t a power fighter. Unfortunately he most definitely was and she had fallen for his feint. Mentally she chewed herself out for making such a rookie mistake and she would do what she could to get out of this but for now she was far too open for her liking and chances were that he was going to be able to get at least a few solid hits on her.

| Hyousuke wasn't the brightest, but he wasn't imperceptive either. He knew an opportunity when he saw one, and the feint he'd taken a chance on had created one for him. He had to take that moment of weakness and exploit it for all it was worth, putting everything he had into making sure that she couldn't focus enough to throw him again. Once more, his left lashed out - this one was far from a probing blow, though. It was fast, and it was sharp, shooting towards her like a bullet into her face. His right followed suit, tearing through the air into her. He aimed only for her face - whether it slammed into her chin, face, temple or wherever else, he couldn't tell or didn't care.
He kept pushing forward, doing everything he could to keep that momentum going. A furious, ceaseless barrage of muscle and sweat-soaked leather, punctuated by grunts of effort and rapid breathing as Hyousuke kept stepping in. He threw in the odd hook as well - a blow coming from the side, something to remind her that he wouldn't let her escape after he'd created that opening. And with the bottomless well of stamina at his disposal, he'd only stop when she made him.
Powerful and rapid though his blows were, Hyousuke lacked precision, and his footwork was far from the best. He threw punches - but experience and quick enough reflexes would be enough to make it difficult for him to land a solid blow. Kagami's style was essentially a hard counter to his footwork as well - that lack of precision and the flaws with his position made him an easy target to throw around. That was, if she could find a way past his assault.

[attr="class","ke"] [attr="class","ex"]I Will Not Be Like My Father [attr="class","rh"] ❝ He was good at what he did, that she would give him.
| Kagami knew this was going to hurt, all she could do was brace herself for the incoming blows. They were good, but already she had noticed several cracks in her opponent's technique. It was as if he had only ever faced off against a punching bag before, or people who simply didn't know how to fight and could be overwhelmbed by a flurry of blows. Feeling the glove smack against her face and head multiple times Kagami simply gritted her teeth and took it as her arms started to go up to block what she could. He was good at what he did, that she would give him. And up against someone with similar skill or less he might have had an upper hand in intensity.
When the first hook came and slammed into her side she knew what her next move would be. Waiting out the barrage to her head, getting some good blocks in though some still were able to get through. And then it came, the next hook. As it did Kagami’s hand shot down to intercept the blow. Catching it by the wrist and pushing the arm to go wide and miss her. Making a half step forward she came in with a solid punch aimed for her opponent’s solar plexus. Unless he had enhanced durability a skilled hit there would definitely hurt.
The next part would be a bit tricky and if he acted quick he could get himself out of it. Diving down and underneath the arm she had grabbed Kagami would pull the arm along with her as she came up behind him, holding the arm and wrist in a rather contorting position, as long as he didn’t have a quirk that made him super flexible trying to brute force his way out of the arm bar would at best dislocate his shoulder and at worst break something. But she wasn’t done there. A swift kick to the back of one of his knees would break his stance and make it plenty easy for Kagami to drop her opponent to the ground and pin him face down on the mat.

| Hyousuke was powerful, and he was durable. That much could be given to him at the very least. However, despite the obvious disparity in skill between them - closed only by luck and a deception, and only briefly - he was arrogant, and pushed too hard. He swung for her, but his aim was off. He missed - giving her a chance to slip past and slam a strike into his torso. Tough though he was, Hyousuke was far from invincible, and the strike sent him staggering backwards a step, sucking in air to try and recover from it. Despite the pain, however, he remained standing, glaring down at her.
He could see what was happening as it happened. He reached out to try and stop it, but he wasn't fast - not enough to stop her, anyway. Though he reached towards her to try and intercept her grab, he ended up swiping at air, only just able to turn his head and look towards her, helpless as his arm was contorted behind his back. His free hand pawed at her, trying to latch onto something - anything - to at least pull her down with him, but nothing. He didn't have the reach or the speed to get to her in time, and down he fell, colliding against the mattress with a grunt of pain.
He struggled, of course, writhing and throwing his weight about to try and get her off of him. But even someone as stubborn as him knew it was all in vain. She'd won the match - and if they were out there, in the real world? Even he had to admit to himself that she'd have won long ago. Though it wounded him, he let his forehead fall against the ground, and sighed. "Fine, I give, I give..."
