Yayama headed down to the pools for her next match, meeting up with Charlotta once she arrived. Thankfully for the other knight's image, the Warrior of Darkness elected to refrain from seeking out some more refreshments that reminded her of home to try. She wondered if she should be endeavoring to free her Kameo partner; Charlotta seemed like the forthright sort, even if she had a sight more courage than experience, and it seemed like their numbers could use any bolstering they could get. Yayama resolved to run the idea past the other Seekers at their next meetup. 

Her opponent today was, evidently, a scientifically-crafted super soldier. Not exactly something she was unfamiliar with, at this point, given the stature of your average Garlean officer or any of the Empire's less savory magitek creations, though his partner mixed things up a bit. Water manipulation gave an opponent a lot of flexibility, and this Ci-Ci was no different. Unfortunately for him, however, this too was covered by Yayama's extensive experience. What she lacked in practice with Esaka's brand of regulated prize fighting and overall speed, she more than made up for with a breadth of battles and the tactics that had won them. She'd never fought a super soldier and an elemental water construct working in tandem like this, but she'd fought pairs of super soldiers, water constructs, and groups of elementals before. Yayama was pressured in her first round, but she continued what was quickly becoming a pattern: learning her opponent's moves and capabilities, then getting a clean victory in the next round after surviving the first. 

After the match (and patching up her opponent, as she'd also begun making a habit of), she headed on over to where she'd been told about, bringing Charlotta along with her. These Power Stone Games sounded more her speed, really, and Yayama figured she'd use the spare time she had. [i]I suppose it spares you from talking to me, doesn't it.[/i]
