(OOC: kind of a little confused on your movements as some of them seem a tad constricting to me but if it is the attacks you wish to use then so be it.)

A mighty roar would continue to indicate the boy's inhuman brute strength for as the echani warrior attempted to slap away Utonar's attacking hand with his left, coming across under his right, Utonar seemed to have him. Though the style utilized by the echani master offered a distinct increase in power based attacks, it still could not fully make up for brute strength and with every muscle constricting within Utonar's left arm, Utonar proceeded to attempt to grab the wrist of the warrior with his already open claws; the grab would constitute further damage as the fingernails would dig deep into the flesh much like the echani's legs.

As he did this, the maneuver would undoubtly prompt a cease on the sudden knee attack, Utonar began to return to his basic position which would also prompt him to pull upon the right arm which would cause Cinaed to begin to spin. This would of course usually set Utonar up for the same arm lock position as Cinaed had gained on him not too long ago, but the Cathar hybrid opted for a more direct attack.

Attempting to utilize the very same style being used against him, Utonar drew his right hand back, balling his fist before every muscles constricted, shooting the fist out in a bone-jarring hook towards the exposed right cheek and jaw of Cinaed. The explosive force of the punch was only augmented by Utonar's sheer brute strength for though the boy could not hope to match the speed of an echani duelist, his difference in strength and overall power was evident; it would even perhaps come as a surprise to the echani, the hybrid's own blending of styles such as this.

In truth, Cinaed was a bit surprised, yet surprise alone would not fell him. Feeling the grip on his wrist, the first part of Cinaed's plan had been initiated. To grab his wrist alone would not stop the powerfull knee from ramming itself into Utonar's side with sheer Momentum alone, delivering itself with duracrete cracking force.

As he felt himself spin, he was completely aware of the punch aimed at his jaw, yet his ability to control his momentum allowed him to use Utonar's grab as leverage, pulling himself away from the fist as his left foot stepped off of the extended elbow. being as lithe as he was, he doubted Utonar would do little more than feel the Echani's weight press off him.

This, of course, set Cinaed up for a devastating kick. Curling himself into a ball infront of Utonar, suspended by his own momentum, Cinaed suddenly exploded, utilyzing his back and leg muscles to push out both of his feet with devastating force directly to the face of Utonar.

OOC: This may be a bit confusing, I basically walked up your body to deliver a dropkick. Your arm won't react quick enough to pull me fully away, and your right arm is extended from the punch.

(OOC: still a little questionable on the movements for me. I understand the basic concept of the last bit but just wanted to know if you were still in the air through all this since for the first direct punch, you had jumped over the crater formed by your body, leading me to believe you are still in the air through all this which would have prompted such a swift spin when I grabbed you. Basically though, if you are still in the air, it would be kind of hard for you to stop spinning and perform the move since physics dictates that movement in free air, or atleast quick movements such as these are a bit impossible; meh this is star wars, so just let me know so I can edit if you do intend to edit.)


The rotation was not fully achieved and the fist would not connect as Cinaed's obvious experience seemed to give him to better edge. Of course, Utonar was not without his own skills as would be evident in his counter. It was quite a surprise to the hybrid however that one could perform such a maneuver in the situation.

WIth the knee strike somewhat lessened in power from the semi-rotation, Utonar was able to deflect it enough with his now free hand that had been freed up when Cinaed pulled his hand away; something that would have left his whole hand cut up quite badly. Of course, the movements of the echani upon the body of Utonar did surprise him as he was actually able to scale Utonar to get to higher ground to prepare for a secondary strike. Surprise would not deter the boy however for as soon as Cinaed left his body, Utonar went on the offensive yet again.

As the echani brought his legs back to set up his attack, Utonar used his own forward momentum to lower his head slightly. This lowering allowed the poweful dropkick-like maneuver to graze his back which signaled the begining of Utonar's own counter. Bringing up his now free arms, Utonar attempted to grasp Cinaed by the waist while using his head as a brace of sorts to squeeze some of the air out of the smaller echani. No sooner did he do this, did he use the combination of the forward momentum with his sheer strength to propel the echani downward, hard towards the concrete floor; a maneuver that the cathar hybrid deemed the "Dominator". This maneuver flipped the attackee to have their face and torso be parallel with the ground as the attacker propelled them downward with such force that it would cause the ground to crack and either knock the air out of the opponent while damaging the face or even cause a knock out if one was strong enough and the opponent did not defend.

The Echani pulled his arms up to his chest, almost as if using them to brace himself for his own counter as Utonar grabbed his waist. He suddenly felt the incredible sensation of descending, at a rapid velocity at that. It sleemed the Cathar was attempting a body-slam of some type.

Cinaed pulled his knees back up to his chest, moving out his feet perpendicular of his chest. The effect was to flip himself further than Utonar had intended, as his fingers pried off those of Utonar. Landing on his feet, he had to crouch to brace his own momentum, using that same moment to propell himself back up, using a rising knee strike to attempt to hit the chin of Utonar with devastating force. His arms were held out to block off those of Utonar, though he was weaker, his upward leverage should hold out for the duration of the attack.

OOC: o, basically you pull me from my position and instead of slamming me onto my back, flip me backwards os that my head lands between your feet? If this is the case, then my counter would only be made easier. I'll edit my post to fix this but the fundamentals of my maneuver remain the same.

OOC: It looks a little something like what you can see in this video clip except with more power and velocity to it. I will take a look at your post however and then edit this one to include my IC post.


IC: It would seem that throughout this contest of skill, Utonar had been on the recieving end but it was to be expected with such a skilled opponent. Movement after movement seemed to set off different chains of counters that would perhaps seem inhuman to most as the lapse of time for the contest was so short compared to the plethera of moves applied; of course, to the hybrid hunter, time seemed unimportant as he lived in the moment.

No sooner had the animal felt his grasp loosen from the waist of his prey had the animal prepared to attack yet again. From the landing of the smaller echani, though one could attack with different points of the body, all movements would come to one particular similarity, the act of rising with great force; it seemed a bit repetitive now to the hunter as he had gained a feel for the defenses of this style. No sooner had Cin began to rise did Utonar begin to fall. The rising knee would miss him but just a few milimeters yet the pressure of the blow could be felt to such an extent that Utonar's nose began to bleed somewhat.

To the untrained eye, it would seem as if the bigger cathar hybrid would have been hit, finally signalling the end of the conflict but it would perhaps be obvious to the echani that he had not connected. Of course, however, with his positioning in the air, it would be harder to mount a direct assault to Utonar's counter for as the boy fell back, his hands once again freed from the attempt at disabling a defense from Cinaed, Utonar brought them back to use them as a brace as he curled his own body, bringing his knees to his chest. Learning through action, it was clear that the hybrid was a quick study as he seemed to mimic many of Cinaed's movements yet with his own twist. What had been attempted from above now came from below as Utonar propelled both feet with such force from below that he would bend durasteel; a double heel kick to the exposed gut of the echani dark lord.

OOC: Yeah, that's what I pictured while i was editing it.

IC: Cinaed smiled as Utonar utilized one of his own moves against him. He was thoroughly surprised by the level of fluity that the Cathar now possessed. He could barely even concieve that Utonar's attacks on Dantooine had been brash and undisciplined. Snapping out his foot, he let his knee bendas the Cathar's feet collided with it. Springing off the very same foot, he flipped over the Cathar, performing a few of his signature acrobatics before landing back on the ground, facing Utonar.

"Very impressive," he remarked with a grin. "You've thoroughly dodged each of my attacks, including that last one. It pleases me to see that you've been studying," he said with a bow. "Should we continue?"

The push off from Utonar's feet somewhat destabalized the hybrid's balance yet he still used the momentum to follow through with a handspring to reach his feet; or foot as it were for his balance was somewhat off leading him to land on his right leg, twisting his ankle somewhat. The pain coursed through him yet the boy held it back with a growl, attempting to not show any weakness as weakness in the forest lead to becoming prey.

"Me think that it is your choice master...I am only pack member learning from alpha male so I follow." Utonar said as he stood in the first stand he hand within the begining of the bout; still willing to fight even with his clear disability from his injury.

"Sith teach me much but there is much me can still learn...me wish to know as much as me could to become greatest hunter in this large forest like you, Lord Valec, and Lord Vexas." Utonar said with a low growl as his feet slid forward somewhat to advance forward even with the pain shooting through him.

"In that case," Cinaed's arms dropped. "What you want to learn about is the Force." He walked toward's the hybrid as he lifted his right hand, focusing a Force Heal on the twisted Ankle. Surely Utonar would notice the soothingness of the ability right away. "Let's stop for now," he said as he turned away. He was no medic, and so he could not fix the wound completely, but it would be good enough for now, should Utonar be carefull.

Holding out his hand, he retrieved his tunic, jacket, and weapons, replacing them on his person before tapping on the pad on his wrist, the Echo Board coming to life as it moved to him. "We can talk about the force when we get back to Coruscant... For now, I'm starved."

The hybrid was more than surprised as his eyes seemed to buldge out much like a child discovering something new in the world. The bright light was only offset by the almost immediate relief from the pain as his ankle seemed to be able to carry his weight a bit more. It was an awesome power much like that of the ability Maulkat had showed him when he learned to talk within the minds of others; a trick known as mind trick or persuade mind.

With his ankle somewhat healed, Utonar could walk better now and no sooner had Cinaed stood did Utonar follow. He could still feel a slight tingle and tightness but it was much less than before.

"Me am hungry as well...we eat on ship?" Utonar asked as his stomach let out a louder rumble than the boy's roar. He was also hoping to discuss things of the force more as he had known of it only so much; having used it instinctively during his hunts on Cathar. Of course, however, Utonar couldn't help but notice the trails of blood upon the body of Cinaed.

"You wrap or heal those up?" Utonar asked as he pointed to Cinaed's left wrist and ankles.

Cinaed nodded to the food question, remaining somewhat neutral when the question of his wounds came up. Scratching the back of his head, he contemplated his answer. "I will bandage them up. We Echani are relatively very mistrusting of the Force; Although foolish, it's a trait that's stuck with me," He claimed with a shrug. "I try to use it as little as I can, anyway. To endure is to discipline your self: Suffering brings with it strength." He sounded almost like a teacher as he spoke these simple statements.
