Ryan, in all honesty, hadn't expected to pass the first round. He thought for sure he would have lost. But here he was, ready to start his next match with another life hunter at that. This time facing Robert.
Ryan had seen the older hunter around a lot. Hell, he remembered a few of his outbursts in defense of some of the other hunters, during some of the incidents with a certain division lead. That alone got the life hunter Ryan's respect. However, that didn't change the fact that Ryan was nervous about fighting him. From what he knew, Robert was an experienced hunter, who had a lot more experience under his belt than he had. On top of that, with the sky growing darker and the storm clouds rolling in, there was fear of a storm approaching. But beggars can't be choosers, right? And her certainly didn't want to quit halfway.
:Don't slip now.: Locke teased. Which was rewarded with a grumble as Ryan instinctively yanked his hood up and over his head, to protect himself from the rain.
Ryan then took on a stance, fixing his gaze on his opponent. He had to be a little more careful this time. It was true what Ami had said. He had been too transparent in the last match, making him easy to read. He had to think more carefully. So this time, rather than simply rushing in, Ryan darted forward, before ducking lower and spinning upwards, bringing his elbow up in one swift, but strong, motion. Which was then followed by his other set of claws.

At first, the fact that it was raining started to dampen Robert's mood. He'd trudged through the town, using his scarf like a hood to cover his head and his delicate sensibilities. But the feel of being clean won over the uncomfortable cling of sticky clothing to his skin, so he started to see the positive side of the change in weather.
He wasn't ready for Ryan's speedy attack, but as soon as he felt the impact on his shield, he groaned. "Another melee fighter, Jazzy." He huffed out, pulling the weapon up off the shoulder that she was resting on. He felt so clunky and slow when he was all wet, and he knew that was going to lead to a quick end to the fight if he didn't man up.
"Nice to see you too, Ryan." He huffed out as he used Jezebel to bash the man away from him. Distance was key. He kept the weapon pointed, threateningly, to keep Ryan at a distance, but eventually, he just turned her on her side and sliced her across the air like a bat. This missed Ryan entirely, which was a shame. It buried Jezebel into a crumbling pillar, a completely accidental occurance, which slowly toppled in on itself, along with the entire wall beside Ryan.
Robert stared at the mushroom cloud of mess he'd just accidentally created, and buried his opponent in.
Then he opened the drivers side of the abandoned car, crawled in, and closed the door behind him. No one would ever find him there.

Successfully pushed back the first time, Ryan let out a startled squeak as the blade swung at him, however it missed and embedded in a pillar nearby. Unfortunately the force of the attack caused it to fall and because Ryan reacted too late, the wall toppled down on directly on him! Temporarily pinning the moon hunter, while Robert--
--wait. Where did Robert go?
Ryan paused, still in the middle of trying to free himself from the rubble, and looked around for the life hunter.
Seriously where did he go?
His gaze slowly slid over to the car. A blank expression on his face as he approached the rusted remains.

He watched Ryan look for him, and slunk even further down into the car. Would he get disqualified for having dropped a wall on him?! He sure as hell felt like he would. He rolled the window down when he thought Ryan was out of hearing range, and stuck his head out to get a better look. Misjudging his size and the space in the car, his elbow bumped right into the car horn, exposing his location.
"s**t, s**t, s**t-" He tumbled out of the car with the grace of a clown, and hurriedly took a defending position, ready to pick up the fight where it left off. Without any major property damage. Jezebel, cackling and disowning him in his own mind, whipped forward to her full length to barely jab at the (very) suspecting target.

Ryan reacted to the car horn, by jumping a few feet into the air. The sound of which sounded like a donkey that started to bray and then drown.
He did NOT think that something that old would have any working part on it. But of course. If Robert had to climb into any rusted heap of a car, it would be the one with the working horn. Or partial working, anyways.
The moon hunter jumped again, this time back as the bladed weapon shot out at him, though this time just scratching him. Ryan's startled response, however, was to lash out and scratch at the life hunter's face, the same hunter who just tumbled out of the car.

Sobering up once he felt the pressure of a solid attack on his face, Robert stood up straight, twisting Jezebel in one hand. He adjusted for the continuous close quarters attacks by sending Jezebel into Ryan's stomach every time the claws came close enough. It was just exploiting the weakness of needing to reach out to attack, but there was no accounting for his speed. Robert's attacks had to be faster, if he had any chance of winning this.
"Okay." The first word either of them had said to one another. "Let's start over. Hi, Ryan." Jezebel clanged against the man's claws warningly. "It's nice to see you, Ryan." She blocked another swipe with the flat of her blade. "Good luck in the fight, buddy."
That was the extent of pleasantries Robert was prepared to give. His face set with grim tension, crouching into a defensive position to prepare for a real fight.

Ryan coughed, wrapping one arm around his stomach before backing up far enough so that he couldn't smack him again. He had already taken enough jabs to try clawing at Robert again in the same way. Though at least now Robert seemed to have sobered up and was going to take this battle seriously.
Not necessarily a good thing.
"Hi Robert." He replied, quickly withdrawing his hand as the clang of metal met the clawed points. "You just dumped a wall on me."

Though their battle was already very dynamic and bordering on bizarre, Mimsy just sat quietly off to the side, hands crossed in her lap. She occasionally had a little hint of a smile, but she still didn't say one word - just watched, eyes following the movement through the town with intrigue.

"I DIDN"T MEAN TOO OH MY GOD!" Robert's face flushed red with embarrassment, even as he continued assaulting Ryan nonstop with jabs. "That's not how I normally fight. Honest!" If anything, the only option he had left was to show Ryan how he fought. And he had been doing so well at keeping his natural fighting style out of this tournament so far..
With a sigh of defeat, he rose Jezebel up above his head, and twirled her like a baton. The blades blended into one another, and his body straightened, stretching, preparing -
In what was understandably an unexpected grace, Robert's body twisted and twirled in a ballet whirl, clanging Jezebel against Ryan himself, with the force of his entire body behind the blow.

Ryan took a step back at the sudden outburst. He believed him. Really he did. But at the same time, Ryan just had to add--
"I suppose normally involves hiding in cars then, yes?" There was a hint of a smile there, as he forced himself to keep a straight face and nearly failed. Truth be told, he knew it was an accident. The wall part that was. Ryan had no clue what the life hunter was thinking when he chose to hide in the car.
The force of the next hit, hit hard, knocking Ryan off balance. However Ryan used the momentum and spun down and around, and sweeping the ground in a low kick--aimed to knock the life hunter off of his feet.

The trouble with being so big was how hard you fell. When Ryan swept his legs out from under him, Robert had already been on his toes from the move he'd performed, and it was an easy matter of sending him flying onto his back. He hit the ground with more force than he would have liked, and the shock of the fall travelled up his spine, sending shivers of pain up and down it. He groaned, lying there for just a second before his legs heaved up over his head and he rolled backwards, flipping over to land on his feet.
He didn't even want to talk about the car. He just ignored that Ryan brought up the car. The car did not exist. The first rule of Abandoned Town spar was that you did not talk about the car.
Robert slowly lurched back up to his feet, rubbing his tail bone with a sour expression on his face. It was a fair attack, but that did not soothe the tingles of pain stinging his spine.
When he felt barely recovered, Jezebel was whirled in front of him like a helicopter blade, in an attack that lacked the eloquent grace of a dancer, but kept Ryan at bay. He was playing it safe, for now.

THE CAR DID EXIST. DON'T YOU PRETEND IT DIDN'T, ROBERT.
Was what Ryan wanted to say. At the moment he was too preoccupied withe blade being swung around like a copter blade.
It was official. Ryan hated that weapon. In spite of its size, Robert was swinging it around as though it was a light and small blade. It sure didn't hit like that though. Ryan returned the curse with one of his own. The repeated hits were wearing down his Fear shield, fast, and Locke was buzzing his mind, reminding him just in case he hadn't realized.
Though since the blade was currently blocking him from the front, Ryan used the car to his advantage and jumped up and over the life hunter's weapon, before flipping and bringing his heel down towards Robert.

Keeping Ryan at arms length with whirling blades was no match for his speed, and the other man was already up on the car before Robert even realized he was using the terrain to his advantage. He hissed when the heel connected, his weapon almost dropping as he lurched forward from the force of the hit. That was impressive. Robert really wanted to try that kind of thing, but he knew he'd never be fast enough - or light enough - to use a car as terrain and leap off of it. He'd probably just end up falling on his opponent.. which would admittedly do a fair amount of damage, as well.
He considered that for a moment, and reached for Ryan, slamming the man into the car that he'd just used for his own purposes. This time, Robert used it with his strengths in mind - crushing Ryan between himself and the hunk of useless metal.
Dakota's yell was heard, and Robert let out a harsh laugh. "Nice friends." He chuckled out breathlessly - crushing Ryan was keeping him from being able to breath normally, as well.

[Spectator]
Dakota still had Saya's coat while she was showering and thus, when he came to the battlefield, brought the spirit of Saya with him.
He ignored Mimsy well enough because the b***h wasn't worth it.
Also had a wall just fallen on his brother?
"RYAN, KICK HIM IN THE d**k FOR GODSAKE MAN." Dakota shouted. It was obvious to see who Dakota liked.
