Duffle vs Dave at the antartic!

[Deleted]

Alright, both competitors will start at opposite ends. The entire area can be explored and destroyed. I wanna see clean fighting all the way though. So no... Screw it go all out! Begin!

[Dufflepud]

Duffle sudddenly appeared, standing upon an icy tundra. Winds howled by, and the sparse, colorless grass whipped back and forth, barely mannaging to stay rooted. Duffle smiled. He would use the environment to his advantage. He baga to trudge through the snow, his boots shifting to meet his requirements, flattening out so as to more evenly distribute his weight. Spotting his opponent, some several kilometers away, he sensed a strong energy signature. It was a pity to have to destroy another psionic such as himself. Sending a telepathic messege, duffle sped up, now sprinting in the direction of his enemy,

"Another Psionic, I see. This will be fun!"

Appearing suddenly, Kabruski winced as the bright light hit his eyes. Flexing his muscles, he cracked his neck to the left and right, savouring the feeling as his bones snapped in response. Inhaling, Kabruski "heard" a thought directed at him "Another psionic, I see. This will be fun!"

Smiling to himself, Kabruski scanned the terrain and spotted his opponent sprinting at full speed towards him. Grabbing his MA5B that never left his side, Kabruski hefted up the rifle, sighted his enemy and let loose a full barrage of bullets.

[Dufflepud]

In response to the hail of bullets, duffle separated himself into two, more diminutive forms, each sprinting in unison to either side of the oncoming barrage. He was two bodies, one mind. His bodies now sprinted together, merging seamlessly without a sound. Duffle now bent the light around him, rendering himself invisible, before placing a slowed time field around dave. His opponent now slowed down by twenty percent, he created a storm of dark psionic energy directly over his enemy's head, crackling black lightning bolts roaring with energy as they smashed into the icy ground.

As the energy smashed into the ground, Kabruski was flung backwards from the explosive force of the resulting explosion of dark energy.

As Kabruski was flying backwards, he activated his Spartan Super Strength, lessening the impact as he slammed against the ground, landing face first, scraping his face across the icy and sharp ground.

Picking himself up, Kabruski spat out blood and teeth fragments, wincing with the fiery pain of his facial injures.

Smiling, he bowed towards his opponent.

"Nicely done. Lets see how you handle this" Thought Kabruski as he rushed forward, using his psionic power to increase his speed by 50%. As Kabruski closed in on his prey, Kabruski used his Psionics again, to conjure a massive ball of light, casting shadows on the white plains of the barren wasteland. Launching his projectile, Kabruski followed up his attack with a time control burst, slowing his opponents movements by 25% for 10 seconds.

Watching as the Ball of light smashed into his opponent, Kabruski smiled. Lets see you survive that."

[Dufflepud]

Duffle was in a dilemna. As a psionic, he had some control over both light and time. He could either stop the ball of light, and be caught in a slow time field, or reverse the effects of the time field, and allow the energy ball to smash into him. Opting for the latter, Duffle absorbed the time field, using that energy to put up a few flimsy walls to slow down the ball of energy. It wasn't enough. The crackling ball of pure psionic power smashed through his feeble defenses like a katana through a comparable euopean sword (sorry, Frog ), colliding with duffle in an eplosion of energy, sending him rocketing backwards, smoking even as he plowed through snow and ice.

With a groan, Duffle picked himself up, vowing to never be so reckless again. This opponent would prove difficult. With a glare at the humanoid, he sent a wall of roaring flames at the man. Using this as a distraction, he blinked himself directly behind the man, plowing one of his massive, psionicaly imbued gauntlets into the man's back. Completely flattened, the gauntlet did little damage, but what it allowed for was much more dangerous. Duffle charged his fist to glowing with energy in a fraction of a second, before releasing the pent up power in a wide burst, the forthcoming blast being directed straight at dave's back, and in turn, the advancing wall of flames.

[dave36464736]

Slammed into the ground, Kabruski's back was throbbing from the punishment this opponent had dished out. Before he could recover his wits, He saw a flash of energy charge up on the Aliens Gauntlet as well as a wall of fire come at him.

As the power released, Kabruski only had one option, and it would cost him greatly. Summoning all of his will, He managed to put up a wall of pure psionic energy, which caused the energy blast from the aliens gauntlet to bounce off and for the flames to pass harmlessly over. However, this caused Kabruski to nearly pass out from the effort.

Struggling to his feet, Kabruski looked at his opponent. Panting, he smiled weakly and said out loud "That all you got?"

[Dufflepud]

Having been drained from Dave's earlier attack, Duffle was not able to finish him in his weakened state, but Duffle was still in significantly better shape than dave was. Duffle charged up a bolt of psionic energy, slamming it into the ground and releasing a shockwave that would knock his opponent off his feet. Bending the light around him, Duffle melted into the shadows, before blinking himself directly on top of Dave, who he promptly slammed a psionically charged fist into.

This proved to be a good challange for Duffle, he took some, gave some, and still looked decent doing it. The use of psionics was actually interesting to watch. Bravo!

Dave fought the good fight, but in the end he ended up taking more hits then he needed to. Ultimately, had he managed one last counter attack he might have won this fight.

Victor: Duffle
