*She nodded.*
[u]I was and still am good at using my armor. The difference is that my companion disagreed with relying on lethal force. There are those who truly deserved it, but there were those who only followed orders. Appearance alone doesn’t make armor intimidating enough, though. Skill does too.[/u]

“I can agree with you on that. Though, killing really depends on the type of person. While I’d admit, I’ve killed nerds for a friend of mine here or there, I’d like to mostly avoid death. Least as far as I know.” She says, circling around Sapphire.
-
*She watched as Shila circled her, lowering herself a little.* [u]Well, my days of killing are pretty much over. That is, unless someone really bad comes around. That’s why I like intimidating armor, it might discourage someone planning on facing me.[/u]
-
“I could disagree on that. Sure, it may intimidate some people...not everyone will be fooled, though. Might be useful, but not always.” Shila tells her, lunging her saber toward Sapphire.
-
*She jumped to the side, the lenses on her helmet still focused on Shila’s face.* [u]It doesn’t need to work 100% of the time.[/u]
-
“Isn’t that what I’ve been saying?” Shila had asked her, returning to her original position of circling her.
-
*She shrugged and crouched down. A blue flash was seen behind her as was launched toward the space just to Shila’s left. At first it seemed like bad aim, but she spun as she hit the ground in an attempt to sweep Shila off her feet.*
-
Shila was swept off her feet, being thrown down toward the digitized ground, as she proceeded to throw her legs down so they could sweep Sapphire to the ground.
-
*Unfortunately for Shila, Sapphire’s armor increased her weight greatly, which helped to keep her feet firmly grounded. Sapphire stared down at her and raised a foot to bring down onto her.*
-
She was able to roll away to the side, which meant Sapphire would simply be hitting the ground with her foot. Shila would eventually stand back up facing Sapphire, sword back out. “I guess you could see why I wanted it upgraded?” She asks her.
-
*The dirt cracked and buckled as her foot struck it, sending a few pieces into the air.* [u]Yes, I can. Lighter isn’t always better. We’re probably both equally nimble, the difference is I weigh a few hundred pounds more.[/u]
-
“Hm.” Was all she stated, staring at her armor. “Who made it for you? You? Some random company Your with? A friend?” She asked, once again circling around Sapphire.
-
[u]The engineers of the Sphirin marine corps. I used to be a marine when I lived back in my home dimension.[/u] *She watched Shila closely as she spoke, not letting her guard down.*
-
“Marine corps? So you were a military person?” She simply asked. Rather than have herself make the first move, she was waiting on Sapphire.
-
[u]Technically I was a marine, but yes.[/u] *She suddenly jumped to Shila’s side and moved to elbow her in the ribs. She immediately spun in an attempt to slam her arm into Shila’s chest.*
