"What brings you to the dojo, traveller?" Said a voice. It seemed as if the large, red snow covered wall had begun to speak to the blue haired warrior. It also had a thick Japanese accent, which one would guess a Japanese styled wall would sound like.
If walls could talk, anyways.
English
-
[i]The katana-wielding woman immediately turned to where she heard the voice, her armored hand placed upon the metallic katana's handle. The visor lit up with a brilliant red gleam, as she began to scan for heat signatures utilizing it's infrared vision.[/i]
-
The signatures picked up the massive figure in front of her. It was shaped like, as she expected, a Samurai. Though, he was already standing in front of her when she turned it on. Tesuto couldn't help but notice the Katana on her side. He hadn't seen one wielder of the blade other than himself since the old days. He knew where this would lead too, however his programming commanded he follow the regular procedure. "I am Tesuto, gatekeeper of the Dojo. Who might you be?" He asked the hesitant woman.
-
[i]A faint sigh escaped the pale lips of the armed woman, as she slowly drew the katana blade that hung at her waist. So this was the Samurai Tesuto...he seemed potent, to say the very least.[/i] [i]Luana didn't respond to the robot's question, whoever: she only spoke to those that she followed and respected, and so far - nobody at this Dojo was respected by her standards.[/i]
-
The Samurai looked at the action, and nodded. He walked to the path, keeping his head turned to the woman. He gave a short bow, before drawing only one of the 72" katanas from his right side and holding it in front of him with two hands, pointed towards his mute opponent.
-
[i]Luana nodded her head silently, before breaking into a sprint aimed straight for Tesuto, both of her armored hands clasping the handle of her sword as she charged. She was awaiting Tesuto's attack...[/i]
-
Tesuto was aware of how a Katana worked, however the length of his never gave him the opportunity to perform a quick slice from the sheathe. So he stayed on the defensive as he moved his left....
-
[i]Luana kept charging, surprised that he wouldn't attack. Perhaps he would parry or counter her...only one way to find out.[/i] [i]She suddenly slashed at his chest, awaiting a counter.[/i]
-
Tesuto slid his grip incredibly quick so the the flat of his Katana would meet Luana's strike, and blocked the attack. He then slide the flat of his blade down hers, so that sparks would fly and his blade would be stopped by the guard of hers. However, his was a big sword, and now it was pointing incredibly close towards Luanas face within seconds of her attack, and it was getting closer...
-
[i]Letting go of her own sword with her left hand, Luana suddenly raised her armored hand up and held the blade in place - it tore through some of the armor, but not enough to slice through her hand.[/i] [i]Loosening her own grip, she aimed a kick towards Tesuto's stomach, in an attempt to knock him back.[/i]
-
Edited by Inflatablepants: 2/1/2017 2:36:36 PMIt had the desired effect, and the Samurai was pushed back with an audible [i]oof![/i] however, he furiously clashed his blade into his opponents loosely held Katana with a Horizontal cut....
-
[i]Eyes widening, Luana decides that she'd go against her original plan - she had done her research, she knew of what Tesuto and his weapon was capable of. Perhaps this could escalate into a more...serious battle.[/i] [i]She suddenly swung, appearing like an amateur move - except the blade of her own sword gleamed with a bright light, engulfed before it came into contact with Tesuto's sword. Naturally, it would've sliced through, yet Luana was aware of the samurai's sword, and its abilities on it's own - she figured that it would absorb the energy from Luana's own sword. In fact...she looked as if she had intended that to happen.[/i]
-
Edited by Inflatablepants: 2/1/2017 3:30:22 PMThe blades crashed with a song of steel as sparks flew off their curved edges. The light flowed from the blue haired duellers blade and flowed onto the samurai's, who pushed his blade towards the tip of his opponents katana and swung his arms around clockwise to send its blade into the ground to allow him to back away. He took a few steps back, but observed his blade and the light energy it had gathered. He looked to his blade, but quickly back to his opponent. "What is...?" He asked, trailing off.
-
[i]As Luana's blade tore through the earth, the light that surrounded it faded away, but not before it literally dissipated whatever it touched. Like some form of highly compacted energy that could burn through materials like nothing...[/i] [i]Before Tesuto's energy faded away, words of encouragement rang within his hearing, before the light sunk back to the hilt of his blade - as if it was sealed within it, ready to be called upon at a moment's notice.[/i] [i]Luana smiled at the sight of it - she found the samurai's reaction funny, really.[/i] [spoiler]So basically, Tesuto's sword is now capable of emitting that light, or as I call it, willpower - explained by the words that he heard. Since the slash costs 55 MP, he absorbed that, so... Tesuto's current Willpower would be 55, and he could gain more by absorbing more of Luana's abilities (which are all melee based). So yeah, new abilities. Lol. [/spoiler]
-
"Well..." he said. "I suddenly feel more positive." He twirled his blade and stepped back into the fray, nearing his foes range. His blade could reach her, easily. However he was hesitant on making a move, so he walked counter clockwise around her, at the ready.
-
[i]Luana slightly laughed - not in an intimidating or edgy way, but instead a joyful one. She was having fun - combat had always been fun for her.[/i] [i]She then began her approach, keeping her sword at her side as she sprinted towards Tesuto.[/i]
-
Tesuto slid his back foot around so that he performed a wide twirl. He carried his blade through as he slashed towards his opponent with an incredibly fast and wide slash....
-
[i]Luana only drew closer, before suddenly swinging her sword upwards in a vertical slash. With enough force to potentially knock Tesuto's sword back, even. She aimed her hand at his chest, before a grappling hook shot outwards - Tesuto could've used this to his advantage and drove his sword right into her..[/i]
-
The Samurai's blade clashed into his foes as the grappling hook fired into his chestplate but bounced off(this is under the assumption the hook is flat at the end with blades curling down. If not, And edit will be made) Since his blade was on the inside with no resistance, he took a step forward so that it slid down Luana's blade and his Katana edged her throat. However, he did not proceed to thrust....
-
((Hook was barbed, lol. It would've had quite a lot of strength, it wouldn't have just bounced off.))
-
The Samurai's blade clashed into his foes as the grappling hook fired into his chest plate and pounded and dented it as it impaled him making him fall forward towards Luana. Since his blade was on the inside with no resistance, he fell forward so that his blade slid down Luana's katana and his Steel edged her throat, and his left arm grabbed her shoulder viciously. However, he did not proceed to thrust....
-
[i]Luana only remained in place, as if she realized this would happen immediately after. A foolish mistake on her part - she'd have to aim higher next time. Of course, killing him wasn't her priority - making it seem as though he was the better swordsman was.[/i] [i]She remained still, staring down at the blade as if expecting something..[/i]
-
Edited by Inflatablepants: 2/1/2017 11:59:47 PMTesuto remained in place for a moment, staring his foe in her eyes. He released his grip on her shoulder and moved his hand to his chest, where blood flowed over it. He kept his blade connected to her gullet for another moment... Before removing it, and raising the blade up to slap her cheek with the flat of his Katana. He moved back, gaining some distance between the two as he sheathed his katana into his right sheathe, and rested his hand atop the one on his left. "Round...two?" He asked her as the bleeding from his chest began to stop.
-
[i]Luana only nodded furiously, before drawing her blade and immediately beginning a charge. There was a newfound fury within her - not mindless rage, but a burning determination to defeat Tesuto.[/i]
-
Tesuto had a bounce in his stance, and he sprinted towards his foe. He leapt through the air and unsheathed his katana as he did so, slicing out of its sheathe and towards Luana in an aerial strike, and the blade flashed with the burning light as he did so...
-
[i]Luana then immediately propelled herself upwards, slashing downwards upon Tesuto's blade as light engulfed the sword that she wielded, thus knocking it down. Due to the two propelling at each other, she was granted the opportunity to use her armored elbow as a weapon, quickly bashing Tesuto in the cheek before she inevitably slammed into him, flying over his body - which would either land on his feet or slam into the earth.[/i]
