We had a fifteen minute break, and the final match was about to start.
"Okay this is it." I whispered to Eddie, "We'll distract Andras while all of you take of him."
"Right," said Eddie.
"Hey Lilith," I said, "ready for the final match?"
"Hell yeah," said Lilith.
I shook her hand.
"Good luck."
"You too."
We got into our fighting stances.
Lilith and I clashed, and we both took our turns trying to take each other down.
The first time we fought she won; the second time I won; who would win this time?
I positioned my hand into the dragon's claws and attacked.
Lilith blocked my hands and hit me with a series of jabs.
I blocked the last dozen punches and countered with a few Praying Mantis fingers movements poking into Lilith's wrists and arms; trying to hit her pressure points.
Lilith backed away and started breathing heavily.
I switched to the snake style Kung fu and began to move into Lilith.
She countered with a front kick, pushing me back.
I lifted my leg up into the crane position as Lilith attacked, and I was able to stop her attack.
Lilith covered up face as she moved closer to me, blocked my attacks.
She jumped into me and tackled me.
In seconds, I felt Lilith inserted her fingers into my mouth and pulling away, stretching my face.
"This is payback for what you did to me last time," she whispered.
She pushed her fingers into my nostrils and pulled upward.
"Ow!"
The pain was intense!
In desperation, I stuck my fingers into her eyes.
"Ow, you little prick!"
Lilith let go, and we both backed off.
I made a tiger's claw with one of my hands and attacked.
Lilith held me and I scratched her on the shoulders.
"Argh!"
Lilith wiped her shoulder, and her hand was covered in blood.
Lilith responded by making an eagle claw position with her hands.
When I tried to scratch her against, she caught my hand with an eagle claw Kung fu movement and dug her nails into my hand.
"Ow! Let go!"
She did, and I held my hand.
It was bleeding.
We both got away from each other.
Lilith smirked.
"Had enough, or do you want more?"
"Hell no."
"Good, then I won't have to hold back."
I didn't say anything.
We got back into our fighting stances.
"Machine gun kicks!"
Lilith's feet move so fast, it was like they were machine guns; a technique inspired by my fists of fury move.
I was knocked back, and the attack ended.
I was knocked back, and I got back up.
I rushed in, and we exchanged kicks and punches.
"Time freeze!"
"Not this time!"
She must have forgotten that she tried to use the time freeze on me before and it didn't work.
I punched her, and she stumbled back.
We continued the fight.
I went in and kicked her, and the kick landed.
"Ugh!"
She was stunned.
I saw an opening and took it.
I went back into my tiger style Kung fu stance and hit Lilith with a few punches of solid power.
Lilith stumbled back again and moved her body with looser, whip-like techniques; Leopard style Kung fu.
"Crap," I thought, "I should have seen that coming."
Lilith launched a high kick, and I ducked.
"Damn," said Lilith, "I missed."
