We were at warrior falls watching T'Challa and Erik sparring. Erik was over powering the king and everyone was looking on anxiously. I don't know what transpired last time Erik was here, but everyone was looking on in anguish as T'Challa was getting his ass handed to him. "You have to let go of your mercy T'Challa. That will be your downfall in a real battle." Erik said as his blade hit T'Challa's shield.
Not able to watch from the sidelines, I walked to the battle field and tapped T'Challa's shoulder. "Let me fight him." I said as I stand in front of him in a battle stance. "You sure you want to fight me sweetheart?" He said with a smirk. I saw the way Erik was fighting. He used his brute strength to overpower his enemy. He did it in a smart way, but he didn't have the speed that I did. T'Challa placed a hand on my shoulder as he chuckled and walked away.
Erik got into his position and we waited for Okoye to hit her stick against the ground before Erik charged at me with a deep growl. I stayed in place and waited for him to get close enough for me to move out the way and then kick him in his side. He uses his hand to stabilize himself from falling. I get back into my stance and he snorts out a laugh as he shakes his head and comes at me again.
This time he starts to throw punches at me and I block them effortlessly. I decide to kick at his midsection to which he catches my foot. Expecting it, I use my other foot to kick him in the head. We both land on the ground, him on his back and me in a crouched position. I get up and go help him up but he kicks my feet from under me and I land on my back. He crawls onto me and uses his body weight to hold me down. I try to buck up and push him off but he has a firm grip on the situation. Letting my body relax, I wait for his guard to go down and then I strike him. Using the bottom part of my palm to thrust up into his nose and cause him to be distracted.
Once he drops his guard, I push him off me and move to put him in a headlock. I wrap my legs around his torso and my right arm over his neck with my left arm holding it in place. "COME ON AMINA, MAKE HIM SUBMIT!" I hear Shuri in the back calling out as the others cheer. In the corner of my eyes, I see Okoye smiling proudly. In that moment she looked just like our mother and that was my downfall. Erik takes that time to reach over and throw me from off his back. I feel the pain go through my back but I ignore it and get up. We charge at each other and we throw punches and kicks landing a few on each other here and there.
At this point I think Erik and I got more serious with the fight cause we were evenly matched. "Damn princess, never expected you to be this good." He said in between hits. I giggle as I jump at him punching him across the face. With him being temporarily stunned, I go into a handstand and wrap my ankles around his neck. Instead of me pulling him down, he pulls me up onto his shoulders. "I take back what I said about your physicality last night." He says with my crotch in his face and I swear I felt myself get wet. "AYE NO SEXUAL ACTIVITY PEOPLE!!" Shuri shouts out and I smirk. "Erik, I have more stamina than you think. I just tend to reserve it for the right time." Before he could reply, I drop back down using my momentum to throw Erik to the other side the battlefield. (This move.)
