What The Luck!?
Chapter 316 - 316. Slowing Down
Jackson was not a complete fool. He had long started to memorize the patterns that Laura used when she moved around to attack. She had a bad habit of falling in to the same ones every angle day at practice. This was so much so that the others had started to purposefully move at random to force her to change.
When Laura moved again he swiped out with a jab narrowly missing Laura again. "I get closer every single time." He couldn't help but to smile. He was having a lot of fun and could not help but feel the energy and excitement building.
With his heart pounding, Jackson pushed onwards. He went on the offensive and tried to lash out with a few kicks and punches. They were all misses but he felt that he was throwing Laura off. When she would stop he saw that there was a very annoyed expression all over her face. This meant that when he pushed her enough she would lose her focus and be open to a good hit.
Laura could not help but show her face as annoyed. She knew that Jackosn was trying to throw her off and she was playing right in to her hands. However, she had been working by herself to be in better control of her body. She was not the same speedy mess as she was when she first received her super power or even when she was at camp. She had learned too much.
Through the slowing of her speed and the focus she developed from the yoga stretches, Laura was able to control her body much better. However, the true strength she had developed was was shown when she would slow down rather than speed up.
Laura was dashing around Jackson and stopping just at the corners of his eyes. When she suddenly stopped a few feet in front of him Jackson took a moment to realize she was right there. He immediately readied himself for the strong frontal attack that he could counter and possibly even throw her to win the match.
Jackson had prepared himself and learned some throws. He had tried to use them on jane before since she was fast but failed. So when he decided to try it against Laura now part of him was telling him he was crazy. Yet, after seeing Asher fight he decided that a little crazy might be required in life.
Laura on the other hand moved in a way that shocked Jackson. She walked as if every step took her a minute. For Jackson, it was a very slow and painful opposite to what he had been going against. He was so used to her speed taking small hits that he was waiting for her to attack at her fastest speed any second.
Every step that Laura took made Jackson flinch and become more and more on edge. This was the weakness of him becoming used to her insanely fast speed. When she slowed down the adrenaline and nerves of her opponent would skyrocket. It was incredibly hard for her to force her body to slow down like thins but it was also very worth the effort.
Jackson had not even noticed that Laura had come in so close to him. He was trying to [repare for the sudden attack that he was lost to what she was planning. The next thing he knew a regular speed punch was coming at his head. He forced himself to move to block but was too early. He had left the other side of his head wide open for attack.
Laura took full advantage and release a solid hit to his right temple. Jackson looked at her bewildered before falling on to all fours and struggling to keep his mind in the world of the waking. He had just suffered a shock that he didn't expect. The speed Laura had used was even faster than what she had been using to dance around him before.
"I have been working on my speed. I asked Jane to name this strategy and she called it inconsistent strikes. I think it is like Art's power behind his punches bit for my it's speed." Laura laughed as Jackson tried to calm his mind. The ringing in his head was too much and he called for surrender.
The nurse that rushed over was able to identify a small concussion. It was not normally enough to beat someone but it had been enough to bet Jackosn who had incredibly low pain tolerance. This was something that would be hard for him to work on with his powerful body. However, he knew at this moment that it was much more important than he had ever known.
Lara stood still worried for her friend until she saw him give her the thumbs up. Jackson may have been led away by the nurse to a resting area but he had made sure Laura knew he was alright and didn't hold a grudge against her. "Now I just need to take down everyone else and I will have the top spot." Laura flitted away looking to watch anyone else still in a match.
While Laura looked for a match to watch, Asher found himself right in front of the biggest kid he had ever seen. Jackson was a bog person because of his super power. Yet, this kid was nearly double his size. "Call me Ton. I have the strength to lift Tons." It was a cheesy and bad nickname but Asher couldn't judge too much since his friends had long made fin of the name he gave his own future hero group.
"Umm, Asher othLucky jinx. It's up to you. Should I guess the body building club?" Asher was completely sure that the large person in front of him was just powerful or had some kind of tricks up their sleeves that had gotten them here.. It wasn't so much something that Asher had proof of, but he could feel that his opponent wasn't the average person he would go against in a sparring match.
