Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Some Barriers and forcefields are able to move with the source in accordance to the type of barrier and source. In this case, his barrier moves with his body. Barrier/forcefields also tend to block one side of their sides while allowing the other side to go through unhindered. Like say, blocking incoming firepower while allowing firepower from inside to go outward. Some barriers/forcefields are the opposite way and are usually stated so. Some block both sides. And my guy's barrier doesn't stop kinetic energy, it 'activates' based on kinetic energy and defends against the blow. He can't change its radius. You found the barrier's power source. So it naturally moves with him. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have been able to enter the arena at all. Think of it this way, your first blaster shot in the battle can't come in. However, if I shot the same blaster shot at you, it could go out.

In the air: He was above you, at an angle, ever since your guy landed from the jump and hasn't gone that much above since; as well as, when he entered into the arena before your guy jumped. By the circling bit, he is circling keeping around the same distance away from your guy no matter what direction you face on a compass (North, South, East, West, etc.). By firing the first shot, you brought the knowledge of a ranged weapon 'onto the field.' And more than likely, anyone who uses a ranged weapon, like yours, has more than one 'mode' in case fails. Furthermore, you really think he would just 'stay still' and let you use all the ranged weaponry you like against him at your leisure? He may be using a staff-type as a weapon for the time being, but his main training is not with the staff.

Also, according to your post, you brought out 5 blasters, but only have 4 arms. With you firing the 4 blasters. I am assuming that you discarded your first when you grabbed the other 4.))


As Akira flew around, he noticed the opponent split his arms into 4, discarding the first blaster and grabbing 4 new ones. It would now be more difficult to evade shots fired from them. He found it a bit suspicious that there was a delay after the grabbing. He took this as the opponent waiting for the right time to fire. So as he would begin t opas in from of Ure. His body maneuvered so that it would look like he was 'laying down' in mid-air. The opponent should be able to sense an small energy going off throughout his body. A smaller amount compared the larger amount released as the bottom of his newly position feet.

What was seen now would have normally defied science if not the intervention of magic. It looked as if Akira had stopped on a wall and quickly braced himself against said wall. From there, he quickly launched off of it and started gliding in the perfect opposite direction.

Now onto the shots fired, they go off. However, they miss completedly. The main shot missing Akira by 5 feet, however the barrier did not seeingly activate.

((I thought the backshot was meant to go a bit upwards of a perfect one-eighty. Thus, having it miss. Oh well.

Someone really likes to call themselves the winner a bit early. Even missed a bit of the explanation earlier. ))

Yes, the shot hit and was powerful enough to deal with the barrier. The area hit in the barrier was down for the time being however, the blast also hit a white colored secondary barrier. This being called Shield of light fueled by magic. The secondary barrier served as a backup for the first. The first barrier cut off much of the blaster. Enough for the secondary barrier to deal with it. Stopping the blast. Leaving Akira to be fine. The shield of light wasn't going to be if this kept up. The first barrier looked like beginning to slowly form in place of the hole again 'as if it was healing.' He stopped and changed his body position.

His arms were parallel to the ground, yet outstretched out in front of him and in back. His body basically, within the same 'line' that his arms are forming. His leg formation consisted of his front leg under directly under his front arm, perpendicularly while facing in the same direction of the respective arm. His back leg a little bit distance in back of Dreslin. It was directly under his back arm, however it faced at a 90 degree angle instead. A light red glow surrounded Dreslin's body for entering into the hao'tien stance.

((I guess someone forgot the part of the explanation of it the life energy being divided into 2. One part sustaining the body. The other partsustaining the barrier. What you penetrated was the portion sustaining the barrier and hit the secondary barrier, nothing else much happened. The main one thing of few that connects the 2 energies is number one (body) dictating what the maximum power of the number two (barrier) can be at. If you wanted to permanently damage the 'physical resistance' barrier, you need to damage the body which you haven't done yet. Therefore, my guy ain't dead. The battle is still on.

Ooops. I guess you quite didn't understand that part of the explanation. Nice one.))

Time up!

Akira wins and advances.
