"..."
JJ stays still for a moment, but not out of awe. Rather, he's trying to keep his aggravation in check. He can only carry a few of those special arrows at a time, given their properties.
"-blam!- it, let's dance."
JJ picks his sword and shield back up, puts his bow away, and then charges at Tesuto, shield up and at the ready to deflect incoming projectiles.
English
-
[b]Tesuto nocks an arrow, aims, fires. Then again, then again, then again. Each one hitting the shield in a tight group.[/b]
-
Not stopping whenever an arrow hit his shield, JJ is upon Tesuto by now. From around his shield, JJ throws out a quick stab, and then he comes out from behind the shield, delivering a ferocious diagonal slash going from Tesuto's right shoulder, to his left hip.
-
[b]Both hits land, and the stab enters Tesutos chest briefly before he is cut form shoulder to hip, making him fall to his knees as blood sprays from his body and across the ground. He falls to the ground, lifelessly. [/b]
-
"Oh, shit! You still have an organic body!" JJ drops his weapons, and checks Tesuto's pulse as he attempts to drag Tesuto back to his ship, where a cutting-edge medbay lies in wait:
-
[b]The body suddenly explodes into blue lines of code and variables, harmlessly. The blue lines flow across the ground like a stream towards the dojo, and up its wall. Then, the lines move and create a familiar red figure at the gate.[/b]
-
JJ's eyes follow the lines, absolutely amazed that something like this could be achieved. Once Tesuto reformed, he sheathed his sword and shield, and walked over to synthetic being. "Okay, I'll admit, I didn't expect that. Sorry for cutting you down like that, most things that I fight simply tank a hit like that and then break my nose."
-
"Ah, do not sorry. It is all apart of the testing process. And you have passed with flying colours. Welcome back, Master JJ."
-
With those final words, a massive grin formed over JJ's face. "Well, this is nostalgic. Thank you, Tesuto. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go repair my armor. See you around." And with that, JJ gathered up the scattered pieces of armor, and then began to move each of them back to his ship for repairs.
