The Fist vs The Insect

[Thunder]

It was the afternoon, Shio was being bored and there wasn't anyone in the arcade to play his usual 2d fighting game with. He was sitting in a bar, waiting for something to drink.
In Shio's mind: "*sigh* I should really try to get to lv2 in Brain Burst already. It's so frustrating to see that damned Jyro walk around with his stupid lv5 avatar. Acid Wind, blegh. What a stupid name." He slams on the table and the other people in the bar look at Shio. "Whatever, Burst Link."
Shio accelerates and starts to look for an opponent at his level.
"Great Grinder, Level 1. Well, looks like I've found my prey." He clicks Great Grinder's name and challenges him to a fight.

Shio/Roach looks around. "The rain forest eh? Should I consider myself lucky or unlucky? Hehehe."

Great Grinder

Grinder looks around and tries to spot his opponent. "A challenge, now? Aw crap, I shouldn't have checked my email in such a local place." He looks up at the HP bars. "Mantis Roach. Mantis... mantis... so that would be a green avatar I suppose. He walks around carefully with his fists raised and ready to punch his opponent if he would get close to him. He hears something move left of him, about 20 meters away behind some trees. "Hey! Show yourself! I'm not hiding so why should you?"

[Thunder]

Roach stops moving. And looks at where the voice came from. "Hehehe, I'm not hiding at all. I was just trying to find you and it seems I've found you." He draws his sword and takes a defensive stance. Knowing that blue avatars are short ranged and the fact that he doesn't not see Grinder carying a weapon, Roach gets ready to counter the moment Grinder gets close to punch him. "Not gonna use a weapon? Are you underestimating me or something?" Roach asks in a mocking way.

[Thunder]

Great Grinder

Grinder gets a bit annoyed by, obviously, being underestimated by Roach. He however keeps his head cool and takes a fighting stance.
Now both are about 20 meters away from each other, but because both of them are close range fighters, they won't be able to do anything from this distance. Grinder starts to closely look for any weak spots on Roach. He figures that the best spot to hit him would be his chest or stomach, since Roach has armor covering the sides of his head and his back and sides. Grinder fakes to start running to try to let Roach react 1 to 3 seconds to early. This works and Grinder sprints towards Roach to hit him while he kind of let his guard down.

[Thunder]

Roach, having fallen for his trick, gets hit in the stomach. He gets pushed back but leaves his foot pinned to the ground. "Hehehe. Think you got me?" Roach quickly grabs Grinder's arm before he's able to pull it back and points his sword at Grinder's chest. "Well Grinder, I hope you like holes, because you will have quite a few in you in a few seconds. Hehehahaha!" Roach's arm starts to glow and his swords starts to get covered in a green aura. "Piercer Assault!" Roach thrusts his arm forward and starts to release a barrage of stabs at Grinder's chest.

[Thunder]

Great Grinder

Grinder wants to step back to avoid Roach's move, but it fails due to the moist ground in which his feet have sunk. Grinder's sight is becoming blurry cause of the pain of being stabbed all over his chest. He tries to pull his arm back, but Roach's grip is to strong. He closes his eyes and tries to focus. He uses his Bulk ability and pulls his arm out of Roach's grip and stops Roach's sword by letting him get stabbed in the hand and grabbing the blade. The aura around the blade from the Piercer Assault is slowly cutting Grinder's hand. Grinder took quite some damage and is in pain, but at least he got out of the barrage. "*cough* Roach, I'll show you not to underestimate one of the Blue Legion!" Grinder Punches Roach in the stomach and Roach get send flying into a tree.

[Thunder]

Roach hits his back against a tree and drops his sword. "Keh! Where the hell did you get that strength from? You blueberry!" Roach stands up and grabs his sword from the ground. He rubs his stomach and cracks his knuckles. He holds his sword in front of him and waits 'till Great Grinder comes at him again.

[Thunder]

Great Grinder

Grinder tries to run towards Roach and avoid his sword, but due to the moist ground, running becomes much harder than he thought. He pulls his feet out of the soil and starts to jog towards Roach. He takes a boxing position with his fists in front of him. Grinder focuses on Roach's body, trying to, once again, find other weak spots. "His legs!" Grinder thinks to himself. "If I can just hit his legs and bring him off balance, he'll be like a turtle on its back." He tries to get closer to Roach and kick his legs away.

[Thunder]

Roach looks at Grinder's legs and notices that he's trying to get him to the ground. "You are really stupid. I'm a green avatar, you won't get me to lose balance that easil-" Before Roach could finish his sentence, Grinder kicks Roach's legs away and punches him to the ground. Normally, Roach would just stay where he is, but due to Grinder's Bulk ability, his kick is much stronger. Roach falls to the ground and Grinder kicks his sword out of his hand. Grinder steps on Roach's chest to make him unable to stand back up.
