I consider my options and think of how I can fight back against each opponent.

1. A rowdy hellhound. She definitely won't have a strategy and will charge headfirst, which I can counter either with an uppercut or a slam.

2. A friendly Knouichi. I don't see how I can beat that, if I keep my distance and wait for her to charge, she'll throw her shuriken. If I charge, she'll slash with her shuriken.

3. An emotionless Mantis. She won't give a shit if she kills me.

"I'd like to fight the first one." I say as the hellhound smiles excitedly at me along with the teacher. I enter whatever they have for a ring and wait for her to charge, which she does. As her head gets in biting range, I knock it away with an uppercut and then start going in with a flurry of punches. She tries to punch back, but the punches keep her from moving. I tease her with a small opening, but as she realizes it, I kick her, effectively ending the fight.
