Rosa’s fist connected to Kurama’s face before he had a chance to react. She’s fast, he thought, but not fast enough. Kurama dodged the next punch she threw that him. His fist went for her gut.
“Would you really punch a girl?” she asked.
Kurama’s fist stopped short. Rosa smiled.
“Oh. Sure a good boy, aren’t ya,” Rosa teased as she pinned him to the ground.
Kurama glared up at her.
“Ya know it’s a pity that I have to hurt ya. You’re so strong, handsome, and very kind. I’d love to…”
Kurama’s fist broke free from her grasp and connected to stomach. Rosa did a back flip holding her stomach. Kurama reminded himself that she was an experienced fighter and even though she was a girl, she couldn’t be taken lightly.
“You hit me,” she said is shock.
In all her life no man has ever hit her. No one. She laughed. Perhaps maybe this fight would be fun after all, she thought charging Kurama. Kurama turned and ran into the trees. If he was to win he needed to come up with something. They ran through the tree throwing all they had at each other. Then she vanished. Kurama looked around. Shot, he thought, she could be anywhere.
“Got ya!” she shouted as she launched herself at him.
Kurama grab the rose he had hidden in his hair.
“Rosa Whip,” he shouted turning the rose over in his hand.
The rose turned into a thorn covered whip. He whipped the whip and managed to slash Rosa well. Rosa landed hard on the ground with her hand over the wound.
“It looks like you win,” she said as her body and limp.
Kurama walk over to where the now dead dragon laid and closed her open eyes. Sorry it had to be this way, he thought as he turned to go back. Kurama walked off into the trees without looking back.
