What The Luck!? Chapter 242

"Come on then. Let's see what you can do now. I can already see you have bulked your muscle up a little." Coach Winters did not miss the fact that the gloves were weighted and that Art appeared to also have a second weighted shirt underneath his gym shirt. She was glad someone was working harder for more strength.
"Here I come." Art fell in to his stiff and straight stance. He was going to follow the previous advice and attack first to dictate the flow of battle.
Arty focused on the boxing techniques he had been learning first. He sent out speed jabs even though he had weights on his body. This was already impressive but not at all a challenge for coach Winters. She was too fast and easily able to block any hit, until he changed things up.
He used his super power to suddenly increase the speed of one hit after the other confusing her at his pace. This was a strategy he had received from many hours of watching his training videos at night when his friends thought he had been asleep.
Coach Winters easily adjusted to this and focused on to dodging more. She couldn't imagine how his punches were changing from such a powerful hit to a light jab. Luckily, she remembered his super power and surmised the make up of the gloves.
"Fancy tools you have there, but those gloves won't always be on your hands." With her speed coach Winters moved to Arts' side and unleashed a similar string of punches to match Art's technique.
"I can do the same thing without gloves! What about you? Can you control your body that well?" This wasn't a taunt by any means but a serious question she wanted Art to think about.

Instead of just sitting there and giving up Art copied the spin of Ashers' and turned to face her with a hard heel kick. His movements made the sound stiff but very efficient.
He may have lacked the force needed to take her down but it did force coach Winters to block.
But when Art tried to retract his leg he found that she had grabbed it and was stepping back and turning herself. This force caused him to lose balance and fall in to his back at her mercy.
"You have gotten stronger, but you lack control of your own body. Focus on that before you only focus on your super power." The advice was simple enough and something Art could easily work on.
"Jane, you are next." Coach Winters was not about to stop the momentum. She had one interesting student left and wanted to see what had changed.
"Can I be excused if I am late for my next class? My super power comes with a drawback I am not accustomed to yet." This question alone made coach Winters question what had changed. She could not recall this drawback in the student record.
"That is fine. I can give you a slip." At this Jane ran to the side of the gym and pulled out an adrenaline protein drink from a bag she had dropped there earlier. She needed a better method to have this when she needed it in the future.
"Switch to Adrenalin tablets. They will have a similar effect but no protein to help fix whatever you are about to do to your body." This suggestion was ideal for a super hero moving around in light weight gear. The only downside was the recovery would be slower.

"Thank you, I will look for some after school today." Jane was thankful for the instant solution to her problem. Truth be told, she had yet to look for anything other than the adrenalin protein shakes. Having another option was going to be much better. "Please prepare yourself." Jane gave the warning as she used her super power to its' full ability.
Coach Winters had expected a shifting ability since the adrenaline protein shake showed up. However, this did not diminish the surprise from Janes' change. " You definitely have more muscle mass like that and a tougher skin. Those nails are also a worry." Coach Winters was talking to herself more than anything so she could make a proper judgment.
She became stuck on the flowing hair that appeared to be alive like snacks but not actually doing anything. The effect alone would intimidate opponents if it was used correctly. But what really made Coach Winters wonder, was what changed in Janes' ability to stop people in place?
Jane did not warn any further and sped forward. She had much faster speed than before she left camp and was able to nearly match Coach Winters. However, the reflexes were not as developed as the veteran martial artist and her kick was easily countered.
Jane was not done yet though, she slashed out with her nails forcing Coach Winters to back off. This was an attack that Jane was getting more comfortable using and was glad to have an opponent that was so much stronger than her to test on. "Oh, trying to scratch? That may be allowed but is fairly dangerous. You should be prepared for equal reactions."
Coach Winters pushed forward and dodged the next kick from Jane. She was about to unleash a series of jabs to throw Jane off and tester her skin's defense, but Jane quickly flipped up her mask and froze Coach Winters in place.
Jane used this as a chance to kick out. Normally turning her face like this would just free anyone affected by her gaze but with her shifted form it slowed the affected person significantly after they were released. This alone gave Jane the perfect opening to kick Coach Winters in the chest and send her rolling back.
In a few seconds, coach Winters returned to her normal speed and had stood back up heading back at Jane. "That is an interesting trick, but don't think I need to see you to take you out." She pushed forward and swept a leg under Jane causing her to hit the ground. In second coach Winters had Jane pinned. No matter what she tried her strength only seemed to cause the grip to become tighter on her.
