[i] Lance cursed silently as he felt his systems shut down. They were Emp rounds, but there wasn't much he could've done. His shields were automatic, so they destroyed the rounds, like it or not. Lance's armor was lightweight though, and no matter that the shields and HUD were down, he still had protection. He also picked up on the man's flinch, a minor movement only a trained fighters eye. So maybe there was a connection.. Lance batted the last stab to the side, and his eyes followed Lucien into the air as he threw his projectile. With a swift, almost elegant movement, Lance bright his white and gold katana across his body vertically, a wall of hardlight trailing in it's wake. The kunai impacted with the shield, causing a scattering of light particles and flashes. Not wasting any time, Lance brought his sword back over his shoulder and slashed diagonally, sending a massive hardlight projectile at Lucien. [/i]
