Week 12

Tim waited in the combat room as per his instructions. He scanned the arena looking for his target he was required to fight. His eyes glowed green as he scanned. [Logging data entry 5837: to target sighted, will log again at 5:34] He continued to wait as he leaned against the wall.

"So you're my opponent." Ashe said, hands on her hips as she stood across the room from Tim. Even at the distance, Ashe had to tilt her head up slightly to look at the hulking man. "Nice to meet you." Extending her hand forwards at a perfect right angle to her body, she shakes it as if she were shaking someone's hand.

Tim's eyes turn yellow as he scan's the girl. They soon light up green. "Greetings." He said as he watched her shake. He looked at his hand before slowly extending it to shake hers. "I am D.F.N.D.R unit X43. Call me....Tim." he said in his deep metallic robotic voice. He continued to scan her until she reacted.

"Hello, Tim." the sheep faunus replied. Retracting her hand and bringing it behind her, she rests it on the grip of her weapon. "So uhh.... How does this go?" She asked, quizically cocking her head to the side. "Do we just goooo or is there a signaaaaal?"

Tim looked around the arena. "Negative we must wait for instructor to arrive." He said, just as the man walked in. "Instructor has arrived." The man walked to the ring and waited for the two to get ready. Tim stood at the ready as his eyes now glowed yellow.

"All right." Ashe said, drawing her massive tonfa and letting the end clunk deeply on the ground. "So we just start. I guess." Kneeling down to face the butt of the tonfa towards Tim, Ashe steps on it and the rocket fires, propelling the girl forwards at her opponent, the butt of the tonfa raised to be level with his stomach.

Tim simply held his ground as the girls blow struck his robotic torso. He reached for her with his big robotic hand. She would have to move quick as close as she is.

Right before the blow was struck I flung him to the future where why evil is law Ashe planted her feet on the ground. Seeing the robot's massive hand head towards her, she planted her shins on her weapon and rolled to his right. Bringing the weapon to her side as she stood up from the roll, she swings it in a wide arc towards the shoulder blade of the arm the was reaching for her.

Tim shifted a bit as the blow landed. He wound up his enormous left fist going in for a punch. "Target acquired. Target shall be incapacitated!" His metallic voice called out as he sent a punch flying at her.

Spotting the incoming fist, Ashe brings her tonfa to intercept. Holding it loosely so it swiveled to point down, Ashe jumps and braces her feet against it in the air. Grunting as she feels the blow through the thick metal, Ashe flies backwards and rolls to a stop on the ground. Using her tonfa for support, she pulls her self up and waits for more of Tim's attacks.

Tim's eyes scan the girl, before making his next move. "Foam rounds authorized." He said as he readied his blaster. His fist sunk in, and began to spin. Inside his arm a foam round was loaded into his arm. He then fired a round at her feet. If it hit it would cause foam to grow around her feet and upper legs.

At the sound of foam rounds, Ashe speeds to the side. Hopping onto her tonfa, the jet engines fires with a click of the trigger and the sheep dashes her just out of the foam's radius. Redirecting her path once she was safe, Ashe makes a beeline for Tim's right shoulder.

Tim looks at his target, and extends his right arm to grab for her. [Speed cut to half.] Tim was saving his power until he needed it for now he moved slowly and carefully.

A few meters in front of the hulking robot, Ashe switches to using her feet. Running to close the distance, she ducks under the the metallic vice of a grip and swings her tonfa low at Tim's legs, aiming to hit just above the ankle and knock the robot's feet from right under him.

Tim looked down and raised his giant boot. As she slid under him he dropped his foot right on her weapon, effectively pining it to the ground.

As her weapon suddenly stops, Ashe's feet flip forwards and upwards as her arm gets jerked back from the swing. Flipping up and onto her back, she grunts as she hits the ground before staggering to her feet, eyeing tonfa under the robot's massive boot. Not quite sure what to do, she waits for him to take action.

Tim simply crosses his arms, and lowers his head. He feels that with out her weapon she has lost. "Statement: All combatants must be able to fight with out a weapon. In cases of emergencies." He then waits for her to try and get it.

Ashe was strong but her unarmed fighting skills weren't too good. She'd probably lose a fist fight with a nonhunter if it came down to it. Still, she was good at what she did. "Alright then." Ashe said as she ran up to him. Jumping, she grabs onto his shoulders, her feet planted firmly on his chest. Looking him straight in the eye, Ashe smiles before she activates her semblance. The robot flies back a few feet as Ashe's aure flares out like an airbag, almost immediately returning to her as she dropped down and knelt beside her weapon.

Tim's scanners lit up bright red as all power was activated for movement. "Juggernaut mode active!" He said as he took off like a bullet. His speed tripled as he charges at his opponent. He jumps to the air, and brings his fist slamming down right down in front of her.

Finally reunited with her weapon, Ashe steps on it and pulls the trigger. Instantly, the tonfa scrapes the floor as it skates off, away from Tim's sledgehammer of a fist. Getting just outside of its striking zone, Ashe feels the rumble under her feet before the shockwave hits. Almost immediately, the sheep faunus loses her balance and rolls forwards to lie on her back, her grip still firmly on her weapon to avoid losing it again.

Tim's head immediately looked up and locked onto the sheep again. He stood up and charged at her. He jumped into the air and landed just over her. Not touching, just standing over her. He then slowly reached down to grasp her.

Rolling between the robot's legs, Ashe lies on top of her tonfa and fires the engine. Sliding forwards and out of his grasp, she stops only a foot or two behind Tim as she stood up and swung her weapon up over her head and behind her, the heavy metal tonfa swinging in a wide arc towards the back of Tim's head.

Tim's head jolted a small amount, but didn't change all that much. He did however sweep his arm backwards at her with amazing speed. "Target acquired." He roared in his metallic voice.

Due to Ashe's position from swinging the tonfa, her pose almost as if she were suplexing the weapon, the sheep faunus is promptly knocked down for the nth time. Hitting the ground, she groans as she almost loses her grip on her weapon, only the last joint on her fingers hooking the tonfa's grip. Grunting, she hefts the tonfa onto its long end and stands, using it like a crutch.

Tim slowly approached the faunas until he locked his eyes to hers. He scanned her vitals, and saw she was almost at her limit. He outstretched his hand and opened it for a handshake. His eyes now green. "Statement; targets aura levels dangerously low. Suggest end of combat." The ref looked at his scrool and saw the same thing. He waved his arms to show the match over before up and leaving.
