Match I: Zack Konds and Jet Nadapil vs Syn Eksedes and Gersemi Gossamer

"That's ok! C.A.S. watches it for me!" Syn with a little enthusiasm. He then stops for a moment. "Hey.. So we're supposed to be fighting people?" He looks down at the ground, kicking the dirt.

"Alright, then. I'm ready." Zack says, ensuring that Geoff is in a safe place to watch the battle. Zack returns to Jet's side and prepares his hammer. "Like you said, they'll be here soon. Maybe we should take out some of these trees to make sure they can't get an advantage against us. Think we have time?"

"That's actually a great idea Zack. Stay here, keep an eye out and warn me if anything happens." Jet walks over to some trees and spins Paladin, chopping them down in one fell swoop before moving on to another, and another, and another.

"Oh... Cool." Syn follows behind Gersemi. "So uh.. What's your name?" He asks.

Jet lops down the last of the problematic trees, leaving the field bigger. 'That won't matter though...' Jet thinks to himself as he once again takes his place with Zack.

"GG," Syn said quietly to himself. He chuckled for a bit as he looked up to see Gersemi equip her bow. Syn reflexively grabbed Dai Nao, slowly pulling it out of its sheath. He pauses, then asks "So you sure we can't kill anyone?"

Zack looks around, staring into the bushes at the edge of the now flattened area Jet created. "I think I can hear something. It sounds sort of robotic. Not sure what it could be, but it's definitely not from this forest." Zack continues looking into the trees, though he cannot see anything peculiar.

"I hear it too..." Jet says, his grip tightening as he glares into the bushes intensely, hoping to stare down his opponents. "Stay vigilant, and stay on your toes..."

Syn nodded but his face was disheartened and he pushed Dai Nao back in its sheath. He sped up to catch up with Gersemi so that he was beside her.

"So what's the plan?" He notices Gersemi glowering, and starts to get confused. Then he looks in the direction she's looking and listens. "What's that noise?"

Zack tenses up. "Okay, I definitely feel like someone's right on top of us. I still can't see them, though. This is gonna kick off soon, and I don't think we have the advantage."

"They're close..." Jet whispers to Zack. "Ready for this, partner?"

"Absolutely." Zack replies, making one last check to ensure fire dust is loaded into his hammer's current slot.

Jet watches the trees intently, barely making out some vague figures, both of them smaller than Jet and Zack. "They're gonna be speedy ones I think..."

Zack turns around, now facing the same direction as Jet. "Should I take an opening shot with my cannon?" He whispers, spotting the opponents

"Not yet..." Jet quietly says. "Wait until they can't dodge it..."

Zack prepares himself to switch into cannon form, lining up the staff of his hammer with the targets. "Ready on your go."

((Heading to bed, I'll be on tomorrow))

((Sounds good, we'll pick up right where the action begins!))

"Lul you made a punny." Syn smiled, ^^ on his display screen. Then he watched as Gersemi fired an arrow. ((Look I made a punny too)). After waiting several seconds of watching Gersemi walk slowly, Syn started getting impatient with Gersemi's sneakiness. Syn decided to split up and go to the right, swiftly traveling around the clearing.

((Ok))

Jet smirks as the tree is set ablaze. "So, they can think. Good..." Jet notices one of the figures disappear to their right, Jet's left. "Pay attention forward Zack..." Jet whispers as he keeps a look out to his left via periferal vision. "One went off to the left but focus on the unmoved one...

"Got it. If they've taken the first move, then I'm switching into cannon form." Zack detaches the handles from Volc-Cannus, shifting it into hammer form and rooting it in the ground, still pointed at the unmoving target in the trees.
