The brought it's knee up between my legs. I had to move and fast to avoid this blow. Yet i didn't instead I drove my elbow down in order to stop the blow coming up towards me. This Golem was faster than me so I knew that trying to escapefrom it would be useless at the moment.

It changed direction jumped back slightly and swept low causing me to jump up out of it's path, however, it seemed to have other minds and swept around bringing a horizontal kick to my chest. Damned thing. There was little I could do, yet I drove my leg down, just above the golem's kick into it' lower knee. Almost an intercepting strike. If only I had managed to get more momentum out of it.

The golem didn't stop there though and soon I was exchanging kicks in order to stop it getting the advantage with the legs. Now I just had to contend with the super fast arms and hands. This was such a different experience defending against something that I was far used to attacking.

It suddenly slammed it's fist towards my shouler. I feinted to the right, narrowly avoiding the blow, but it was faster and with it's left knee brought up a blow to my side. I drove my arm down quickly as I was thrown to the otherside of the room, thankfully I had gotten my arm down in time, or I would have been crushed.

It was far faster than I had actually anticipated and before I knew it it was driving a reverse heel somersault onto my head. I raised my hands in order to block it. The golem made contact and it was strong too, so much so that I was almost struggling to hold it. However I held it enough that it flipped back and ran at me.

I barely had time to stand up before I was blocking another kick from my side with my arm. It was intelligent...it was trying to break me and get an advantage by forcing me to where it wanted me to go. As it swung it's fist to my face again I deflected it with a palm strike and ducked under the next blow from the other fist.

It then round housed me as I was caught almost unaware. I ducked so that I was low to the ground, yet the kick still made impact and the only thing that stopped major damage apart from being tossed to the other side of the room was the fact that I had my arm up to block the attack.

Now I could feel my arms starting to swell up with the bruising it was taking and it was something I didn't want to keep happening, yet it seemed this was my training as it came at me again kicking me up as if I were a foot ball. I flew through the air and in the nick of time twisted and blocked a blow from below, sending the golem straight back to the ground. I followed it back down.

I was barely able to block it's next sweep but I did, by kneeling on the ground to support my leg. I was thankful this wasn't actually a strong golem, but it was enough, enough to train me up. All that time training in the Han tower and here I was unable to even land a damaging punch onto the golem. Yet it had been letting me damage it earlier, even though I wasn't having much success.

I hopped on the ground and I was barely touching the ground now between blocks as I swept up and attacked, seeing that offence seemed to be the best defense at the moment. I struck up at his blow attacking the golem with all I had. The golem responded by increasing it's speed much more than I had anticpated and struck back with a stomach punch which I had to deliver a knee strike to in order to block and deflect it.

It kept coming at me and I had to keep attacking it since it wasn't letting up. It's eyes were cold as if this level of attack wasn't even bothering it, if that was the case, then how was I going to block it's final attack. I punched another blow away from me and then switched around on a roundhouse in order to block the golems high kick. The totem seemed to be impressed since it was smiling...as much as a stonefaced totem can.

The golem backed off for a moment as I walked to the small fountain and scooped up some water into my mouth, and eating a little of the food before getting a little rest and waking up the next morning and having to block a revese heel to some part of my body or other. This thing also knew when I was awake, what did it watch me sleeping?

I jumped up just as it came at me again and I had to strike at it firmly blocking another attack with a hand to hand kite strike. ALthough this thing was fast, it just wasn't quite fast enough to land a decent hit yet. In fact it was trying out some of the attacks I had made, but I knew defensive procedures for them and enacted them when appropriate.

I swung my arm out to the side as it swung another kick towards me. This blocking was getting easier...or so I thought until this kick almost got through it, everytime I thought I had the hang of it, another attack came through that was twice as powerful than before.

i started exhanging palm strikes with the golem enough so that I could defend. It was sort of easy, but challenging still. I was amused, because it seemed that at the moment I had the upper hand. I switched just as the golem did into leg blocks.
