She grinned almost devilishly. "You know what he knows, correct?" She didn't wait for a reply. "Then you know there's no way you're taking him anywhere."
Plus, you were on my roof. That's my territory.

"Yes. And more." He slowly walked around Seph's body. "You see, being head of the Military Branch of the Government, I'm privy to some very interesting information regarding all of our.. non-allies. Information we may need in the future. Things such as profiles, maps, abilities, weapon cache, medical levels. And some certain secrets. Things like escape routes, pasts of those we have profiles on. Tunnel Systems."

"A worthy adversary, then, for one who delights in gathering secrets." Nyl didn't acknowledge which was which, there. "Are you revealing this to me with hope of some sort of reaction? Or do you wish to generalize first and then come to some specific information?"
She looked, at best, amused and slightly irritated. Mostly apathetic, actually.

The man gave a smile, then shook his head. He knelt back down infront of Seph, then waved his fingers, as if beckoning someone. Two robots emerged from behind the dojo and slowly made their way towards Seph.
"I believe we'll be leaving now, Nyl. We need to get him back to the lab, get him repaired. Finish his upgrades."

With barely a motion from Nyl, Seph rose into the air a good twenty feet and rocketed toward her until he came to a stop behind her, on the porch.
"Oh, I don't think so."

The robots looked at Seph, at their master, then at Nyl. The remained motionless, waiting for a command.
"Clever. Mizu, is it? Or Kaze? I always get the two mixed up!" He laughed heartilly, then looked at his creations. "Go on then, get him back. Kill her if you must."

Mizu or Kaze?! Nyl's eyes widened, and she covered a laugh with one hand. "A pity. After all, it doesn't do to confuse information about your opponents."

The two machines moved quickly. The first ran in a slingshot-orbit pattern in her direction, the other mirrored it. Their arms unlocked and snaked out a few feet.

She simply waited, there on the bottom porch step. She looked for all the world like she was just waiting for some tea.

And they were upon her. The first attacked, it's arms extending and snaking around her, attempting to wrap her up. The other, however, ran past her, towards Seph's deadish body.

The one nearing Seph was blasted backward by an explosion of fire and light. Not wanting to reveal every trick just yet, she simply chakra-jumped out of the arms of the other before they got too tight. She landed inside its reach, drew back a fist and swung, striking it in the 'forehead.'

The first was blown back. "Good." Said the man. "You know their weaknesses. I made a few last-minute adjustments on these models, though. They're a bit more resistant to the 'boom-boom' technique." The second robot watched Nyl. The same time she landed, the robots arms began to hog-tie(thin A-Wings in the Battle of Hoth) around both of them. When her fist connected, it sent the robot back, but not before hugging Nyl close to it and taking her with it.

Nyl turned the motion into a somersault, at the same time showering the robots with a burst of water. She waited a moment, then froze the water into sharp spikes, meant to tear the things to pieces.

"Clever." He said, the robots eyes going from red to black immediately. Those two were gone. The man yawned some, then knelt next to Seph again. He was fast for his size and apparent age. "He's not looking very good." He said, shaking his head solomnly. Another, larger robot emerged. This one was a walking tank.

A fire-and-light explosion lit off in front of the man this time.
Nyl waited almost obediently for the next one, too, moving back to stand guard in front of Seph.
