《PERCEPTION (A New Begining)》50. Oh Snap!

"You mother fucker!" I go to charge at him but he takes one lunge forward and closes the distance between us.
Time slows.
I throw a punch at him and he sidesteps it, never stopping his words, "Oh come on don't tell me you're upset about that!"
I notice his body start to shift slightly to his right and I lean back, the hook he threw missing me by just a hair. I reach out trying to grab it, but he pulls it back too fast and his arm slips through my fingers.
"I thought you were like me? Why would you be upset over a pathetic person like him? He supposably has some strong ability but never uses it. Even if his ability is that strong if he never uses it, that just means he's still weak."
His body shifts to his left leg, I jump in the air and block my left side. His leg swings around and slams into me, sending me into the ring a few feet away. I had to cushion his blow by grabbing his leg and pushing off of it, or I would have been seriously injured. I could tell just by the speed of the movement alone that it was going to be powerful, but it was also heavy.
"See, you took it just fine. That kick right there snapped him in two. You still can't think highly of him now?"
I'm going to fucking kill him. I'll shred him apart with my fingers.
"That's the face! I knew you had it in you! You love this too don't you?"
It only took me a second to roll back to my feet and in that time he was already in front of me again. The power in his legs is unreal.

I have to stay calm, I can't lose control. I need to anticipate his actions.
His right arm shot out, I tried to slip it but it was too fast and too close. It connected with my stomach but didn't hurt that bad. He had given up the power of the punch to do it without giving a tell that it was coming.
This time I was able to grab his hand despite his pullback speed. I had grabbed for his elbow, and his wrist ended up in my hand. He smiled as he looked down at his hand in surprise, "You are fast!" He went to front kick me but I put my foot on his leg as it came out and the strength of it lifted me up into the air. I jumped off of his thigh and flipped over him while holding onto his arm. I landed with my back facing his and his arm over my shoulder.
I could feel him start to rotate around trying to face my back. I pulled down hard on his arm while dropping my center of gravity to the floor. This along with the momentum of his rotation let me lift him up in the air and slam him into the ground. Because he had rotated around to face my back he was facing the ceiling when he came down onto the ground. He shot a leg back behind him to catch himself.
If any other person tried this I'm sure their leg would snap because of the awkward angle, but his legs are strong enough to withstand the force.
However, I hadn't let go of his hand when I threw him, so I pulled on it as his foot contacted the ground causing him to land on the edge of his heel and be off-balance. As he fell towards me I slid forward and placed his throat under my arm, wrapping the arm around the back of his neck. I now had a tight lock on his neck.

Using his other leg that wasn't supporting him he attempted to kick me in the head in his position, and it looked like he had enough flexibility in his legs to do it. That's when I threw myself back putting all my weight into it, lifting him by his neck. The momentum of his kick helped lift him into the air and flip him over my back. I could see his hands flailing and reaching up for me. His vision was blocked by my shoulder and he couldn't see when to land.
Now you fucking pay!
Even unable to see the landing his legs contacted the ground first and he stiffened them to dampen the momentum of the throw. He had probably broken a few toes doing it because that's what contacted the ground, all his weight was now on his toes yet I could feel the power in his legs hold his body in place.
That's the wrong move!
Now with me in the suplex position and him in a sprawl with just his toes on the ground, the momentum of his body being thrown transfers to me and I use it, with a slight push with my legs, to pull me off the ground. With time slowed, I see down his front side as I feel my feet come above my head and I hang in the air upside down. He was putting his hands out to catch his fall by landing in a pushup position.
Should have worried about your neck first!
With times slowed I hear a voice beginning to reach my ears. It wasn't the kid that I was fighting, but it sounded close and familiar. I was just able to make out the beginning of a word, "NNNNNNnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnno!"
I ignored it, making sure my grip around his neck was tight. It had to support my body weight after all. That's right!
Time sped back up and my body whipped into the back of his. I then slowed down time again. I was going to savor this moment. I opened my legs out to the side and landed in a sitting position on his back, my legs doing a split. I tipped my head back trying to bend so far I would be able to see my own back.
Falling to the floor I felt a vibration run through his body and into mine. His hands had just connected with the floor, and the inertia had to go somewhere, It tried to pull me back and slam my back into his. I felt a sweet, rhythmic snapping coming from his neck as the force transferred to me.
I then started falling again and hit the floor sitting on his back, his head in my arm. His arms had given out as soon as his neck snapped. Letting go of it the head fell, bouncing off the floor a couple of times before coming to a stop.
Flashes of bright light came from my right side so I looked in the direction. A man in shades and covered in lightning was flying through the air at me. The lightning was so strong it shattered his shades as he dove at me, revealing a bright blue pupil with a bloodshot white eye around it.
His hair was standing up so hard that it didn't even move as the air passed through it.
Sparky?
