Kuromi Tekken – [Debut Stream] Round 1! Fight!

An eight-sided fighting ring with a yin-yang pattern and the markings for the dao around each edge. Empty stands surrounding the ring, along with floodlights shining down from above. And standing in the middle of that ring with her back turned to the camera was a dark silhouette with short purple hair and a belt slung over her right shoulder.

[dalewarrior] Round 1, fight!

[ShadowPuppy] Showtime!

[sun_wukong] Gimme gimme power!

The thumbnail changed, turning into an animation of four shadowy figures blurring forward to attack the silhouette.

A man wearing a hood and light blue robes, frost drifting around him.

Another man with black hair spiking up with gold lightning charging flying forward.

A man with hulking muscles and a black vest with torn off sleeves lunging with a kick, crackling with crimson lightning.

And then what looked to be a chubby midget wearing blue overalls and a red cap, fire gathering at his hands as he jumped through the air.

[monstrous_mongoose] Wait, what?

[all_caps] WHAT IS THIS?!

[SilentWraith] OMFG. Are we getting a fighting game mega crossover?!

Soft musical notes started playing. A synthesizer with a repeated and driving melody. An infamous and distinct melody.

[Play: Techno Syndrome 2021 - Benjamin Wallfisch]

[moist_enthusiast] LET'S GOOOOO!

[Lomyril] MORTAL COOOOOOOOOOOOMBAT!

[Thevoidthatstaresback] FINISH HIM!

[SilentWraith] CAN'T ESCAPE FROM CROSSING FATE!

The floodlights flashed, revealing the silhouette standing in the middle of the stage.

A young woman with short-cropped purple hair and a diamond wrestling belt slung over her right shoulder. A tank top revealing a trained and muscular body. Loose gray sweatpants with a white hoodie wrapped around her waist.

She smirked at the men charging at her and then tossed up her belt.

The camera panned, focusing on the belt as it flew up, giving an aerial view of the ring below. The figures charged towards the girl. The scene blurred as the camera focused on the belt.

And then the screen shattered, as if the camera broke.

Static rippled for a while. And then when the video feed turned back to normal, the young woman was standing in a different area. Instead of the fighting ring, it was a small gym. Weight-lifting machines, free-weights, mirrors on the wall, and various weapons.

The previous song ended, fading into another song.

[Play: NEFFEX - Fight Back (RMND Remix) <Copyright Free>]

The young woman clapped her hands together and then spread out her arms. "Mina-san! Yokosou! Ah, *Everyone! Welcome!*"

[rockN_roll] Whoa! She's got an entrance song!

[supashuba] It's really a wrestling idol!

[GenericName] WAIFUUU!!! TOMBOY??? TOMBOY WAIFUU!!!!! *Yeets money*

[StreamSimper] Tomboy waifu? Tomboy waifu! *Cries in rapidly emptying wallet*

[lonelyleopard] Christmas really did come early! T_T

The young woman pointed her thumb back at herself and said, "I'm Kuromi Tekken! And this is my dojo!" She waved her arm, causing the camera to pan around the area. "It's not much right now, but we're going to take over the world soon! Just you wait!"

[eagerbeaver] Where do I sign up?!

[hercool] World Martial Arts Tournament when?

[Bedwarmer] Kuro-chan!

Kuromi grinned and then started bouncing on her heels, as if she couldn't contain her energy. "There's a lot of cool things Mister John prepared for me, so we're going to have a lot of fun today! But first, introductions! Hyah!"

She spun on her heel and swept her leg around to swipe the air. The screen cracked again before fixing itself. And when it did, an old scroll rolled down on the screen with words written in fresh ink.

-----AI|IA-----

[Kuromi Tekken]

Age: 17

Birthday: December 9th

Height: 154 cm

Job: Former WMA Tournament Champion

Affiliation: Project MirAIs Generation 1 - Prodigy

-----AI|IA-----

"Can you see it? I think you can see it." Kuromi nodded and said, "Anyway! I'm Kuromi! Seventeen years old! My birthday just passed, I'm a former World Martial Arts Tournament champion, and I'm currently a member of Project MirAIs along with my genmates in Prodigy!" She took a deep breath and said, "Phew! That was a lot to say!"

[hana_Oniichan] Oh my god. She's even more hyper than Hana.

[ShadowPuppy] Is this what they call gap moe???... Nah, this seems normal... Probably.

[sleepysnake] Man. This is waaay too much energy for 4 AM.

Kuromi glanced off to the side and laughed. "Sorry, sorry." She punched the air and said, "I'm just so excited! We're going to have a blast! Today's going to be so fun with everything planned, especially later when-"

A muffled voice echoed from off-screen. Female, but apart from that, it was impossible to tell whose it was.

Kuromi blinked and then rubbed the back of her neck, letting out a sheepish smile. "Ahaha... Sorry. Can't give away too much just yet. But next!"

The scroll rippled, letting more of the parchment loose and revealing more words.

-----AI|IA-----

- Fighting!

- Good food!

Dislikes:

-----AI|IA-----

"Yosh!" Kuromi clapped her hands together and said, "Likes! I'm a simple girl! I like training! Fighting! Food! Friends! And Bruise Li!"

[vegetable_briefs] A girl after my heart! <3

[kungfu_enthusiast] Someone talking about Bruise Li in this day? :O

[And_Clean] Simple is best!

"Dislikes! Only four things!" Kuromi stuck up four fingers and started counting down. "One! Stuffy old geezers who don't get the modern world! Two! Traditional Martial Arts that haven't changed for centuries! Three, being poor and having to pinch every penny! And four, working odd jobs just trying to make ends meet!"

[Miyazaki Aria] What is this rapidfire debut? XD

[ShadowPuppy] This girl's such a vibe! Love her already!

[creed_cat] It's like an underdog movie! Love it!

Kuromi nodded her head and said, "That should be it! Now for the fun stuff!" She swept her hand, causing the scroll to fly off-screen and clatter in the distance. "Droni! Stay back, okay? I don't want to hit you by accident!"

[OliveU] Droni?

[ame_suspicious] Wait, who's Droni?

[loreowl] A secret fifth idol?

[maximum_monkey] Do the girls finally have a manager?

A soft *beep* echoed and then the camera panned out, revealing a wide-angle shot, just like in old Chinese Martial Arts movies.

The gym was the same. Training equipment, weapons, the mirrors on the wall. All of it showed that Kuromi was by herself.

But then she reached up and cracked her knuckles. "So. Are you going to just keep standing there, or are we going to fight?"

Silence. And then the camera panned, slowly moving around Kuromi. When it did, a group of thugs appeared one by one from just off frame. And when the camera returned to its original position, Kuromi was surrounded by a dozen thugs holding steel pipes.

[lunch_son] We Jacky Chun now too?!

[Happea2gether] Yoooo! We've got a martial artist idol!

[Bedwarmer] Do it, Kuro-chan! Kick their @$$!

Kuromi grinned and took a step to the right, lowering her stance. She held her left arm forward while raising her right behind her, both hands forming claws.

With that, the music stopped. But then another track started up. A slow and eerie sound with a steady beat in the background slowly building.

[Play: Sifu OST Track 11 - Crash the Dancefloor]

A tense stand off. Kuromi waiting for one of the thugs to attack. The music continuing the slow build up.

[Rodvek97] Oh damn! It's about to get real!

[Fire_Scorpion] I thought we were idols?!

[A_Pizza_My_Heart] Not gonna lie. Love a girl who can kick some butt.

And then the song really kicked in. Distorted synth with a driving rhythm.

The moment that happened, the thugs attacked.

One man stepped forward, swinging the pipe at Kuromi's head.

"Too slow!"

She shouted and immediately sprang up, knocking the pipe aside with her left arm. Right after that, she turned on her heel and thrust a palm at the man's chest.

"Kuh!" The man clutched his chest and flew backwards, dropping the pipe.

[GuyInTheChair] Holy crap!

[MasterOfMinds] Wait, is this for real?!

[meat_enthusiast] Yo! This is legit a martial arts movie!

[AmonJo] Hey, nice technique kid! Though I have to say you somewhat remind me of a friend of mine...

Kuromi stepped forward and grabbed the pipe with her right hand, ignoring the guy groaning on the ground. But she didn't have time to do anything else.

This time, two thugs charged at the same time, swinging at her high and low. An attack that couldn't be dodged.

[FuLi] *gasp*

[kawaii_chan] No! Kuro-chan!

[Avacadorable] I can't look!

Instead of trying to run or dodge, Kuromi stood still. No, she didn't just stand still. She stepped towards the attacks, swinging her pipe to block the high attack and then kicking out with her shin to block the low attack.

A pair of *clangs* echoed. One from her pipe blocking another. And the other from her shin connecting with the pipe.

Kuromi winced but then laughed. "Nice!" She spun and swiped her pipe through the air. "You guys aren't just training dummies! This means I can have some fun!"

A pair of loud *thunks*. After that, both the thugs dropped to the ground.

Kuromi kicked them to the side and then moved away from the mirrors and into the center of the room.

The camera panned along with her, tracking her position while showing the other thugs as well.

Three were down. But there were still nine left.

[Kornuptiko] :popcorn:

[UAint_Got_Muffin_On_Me] Bruise Li would be so damned proud right now.

[LunaticWithARubberChicken] So, uh. Is this all being mo-capped? Because if it is, holy fvck.

Kuromi spun her pipe around to her back, holding it in a reverse grip. After that, she stepped back with her right foot and held out her left hand. Smirking, she said, "Think you stand a chance? I'm waiting."

[kungfu_enthusiast] So. BADASS!

That's all for now.

...And no, I totally haven't been playing too much Sifu and got inspired by it for Kuromi's debut. Definitely not.[/author]
