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.

At some point during these latest attacks I had stopped moving so much and was just protecting myself, making sure that none of my most vital points got hit.

Again I found my self striking out again using techniques that were commonly used with the Zanpakuto in order to block various hand to hand attacks. I found that they were coming faster now, and that I was having to speed up myself in order to keep up with the vicious attacks that were coming constantly now.

I let go of my body and let my hands move as if water so that I could block faster, it was no use being tense, and I was finding that every so often my body would tense up and I'd have to conciously let go once more. There'd be a time or two that i'd have to tense up in order to block some attack or other, but i'd forget to let go.

"You won't defeat me," I said swiping at it again. This Golem was having none of that again as it swung it's huge fist towards my face. i grabbed it in my hand. A direct block, and pushed it back. It spun around on it's heel and swung it's leg into mine. I dropped and intercepted the strike with my knee.

I jumped back before he got me the second time with a downward strike and I punched hard and fast into its stomach. Yet it blocked and then went straight for me sending a fist into my chest and sending me backwards putting me back in my place. I took that though as a cue to take a break and did so, thus I drank from the fountain and ate a little more food before resting my body.

The following morning and I was being beaten by the monster again. Well...at least if it wasn't for dreaming about guarding myself being a sleep walker. The golem would have made contact, had my hand not moved up just in the nick of time to block the punch. Thankfully the golem wasn't as strong as me, but it was to a degree, faster.
