When JJ saw the plasma whip, he simply braced, and hid his arm cannon. He straightened up, making only his boots visible to JT. The whip only hit JJ's lower legs, causing some damage to the upper three layers of JJ's leg armor, but nothing to warrant disengaging the armor. JJ then fixed his position for landing, and safely touched down about seven feet in front of JT. He then used the thrusters to actually have some speed while running, quickly covering the distance. "I just remembered, you were the ranged champion, weren't you?" JJ then turned his arm cannon into a gauntlet, and grabbed the sword at his waist. He pushed a small red button at the top of the sheathe, and a small explosion could be heard. Suddenly, JJ's sword practically flew out of its sheathe, but was under JJ's control thanks to the strength of his suit. He aimed for JT's right arm, attempting to damage it or sever it completely. All the while, JJ's visor had turned blue, allowing him to calculate how to manipulate his sword to hit JT's elbow, and scan JT's armor and person.
