Challenger in the Alley

I followed the flashing neon glow straight to the bustling alley behind the retro game arcade! Leaning right against the brick wall was a tall street dancer in heavy boots, popping and locking to a booming beat. A real challenger! I hopped up onto an overturned wooden crate right in front of her. 'Hey! Nice rhythm, but let's see how you handle real speed!' I yelled, dropping into a sharp low stance. She grinned down, tapped her heavy boot heel against the pavement, and swung a playful kick right over my head. I ducked instantly, swept forward, and tapped a fierce one-two combo right against her bootlaces. She laughed and gave me a fist bump with her knuckle—now that's street cred!
