"Oh I'm sure of that Shadow Master."
-
[b]The Next Day[/b] *Mortar forms from the ground next to you* Hey there, it's tomorrow.
-
"I'm aware."
-
And you know what that means... We train
-
"I am ready."
-
*I jump on the roof of the dojo.* First, try to get to me.
-
[b]I create a portal on the ground and one behind you. I come out of the ground and great you.[/b]
-
There you are. Okay, when I fought you, you seemed eager to fight, and your fighting style seemed energy draining. I would like to see how you would approach an enemy. *Mortar forms his sword and stands ready*
-
"You already have."
-
Pardon?
-
"You've seen how I approach an enemy. You told me I was eager?"
-
Yes. Control your eagerness, and control your energy consumption
-
"Very well. Anything else?"
-
Let me see what you learned yesterday
-
[b]I ready myself. [/b]
-
The student goes first
-
[b]I step into the shadows and emerge behind you. I stab you in the back [/b]
-
*I easily parry it with my sword, and while doing that, you get a nasty cut on your arm*
-
"Good one."
-
You bet *I ready, seemingly not wanting to harm you*
-
[b]I step towards you and swing. I follow up with a step towards the shadows and reappear to your side. Another swing[/b]
-
*I parry the first one with my sword, then see you step and take out a throwing knife and parry your second swing. The knife is then flicked at your arm*
-
[b]I easily dodge it and stab at your shoulder. [/b]
-
*a shadowy knife appears in my hand and stabs at you*
-
[b]My blade penetrates into your shoulder and I melt into the shadows beneath your feet. I reappear a few feet away. [/b]
