Markus Dagger vs. Hayvan

[Phil]

Markus continued to charge at Hayvan, rolling foward and dodging blaster fire when he could, but managed to take a shit in his left elbow. He strained some, but continued to charge with his blade until he was now at Hayvan's boulder, swinging his blade above the boulder, right where Hayvan was.

 

[Cailst]

As Markus made a slash at the vibroblade pushing it out of the way. With the vibrosword out of the way, Hayvan then moved his boulder directly forward to run over and crush Markus.

As he was rolling the boulder with the force, he continually stepped backwards so he would be able to stay on the same part of the boulder. He also looked around to make sure that Markus wasn't just running away from the boulder and was actually getting squished.

 

[Phil]

As Markus was pushed away, he noticed the boulder was now heading in his direction. He wouldent beable to push it back, or hold it back, so he did the only thing he knew he could and rolled out of the way at the last second, the boulder going past him with Hayvan. Markus focused his attention on the Jedi, pulling out two slightly larger frag grenades with one hand, and hurled them at Hayvan's direction, without even activating them.

This is what Markus intended, as he yanked his pistol from his side and took carful aim at the grenades as they flew at Hayvan, and fired in his direction. He was trying to hit the Grenades when they were close enough to his target...

 

[Cailst]

Hearing the grenades being thrown, Hayvan turned around to see them coming at him. Somewhat panicked, Hayvan used force push to push them back towards Markus, then Hayvan pulled out his pistol and shot at them once they were far enough a way. Then they exploded not too far away from Markus, maybe not enough to do too much damage to Markus but enough to probably startle him and maybe bruise him.

Hayvan also was moving his boulder a bit backwards. Soon, it broke some of the rocks around the gas vents allowing a good bit more poison gas to come out. At this point, it was too heavy to lift off the ground much but it would eventually fill up the little canyon that they were in.

 

[Phil]

Markus took another leap back when the grenades detonated, feeling the heat across his face. He continued firing at Hayvan with his pistol, even when he saw the gas slowly starting to fill the area. He would need to find higher ground, but first, needed to deal with the Jedi's ride. He took carful aim with his pistol, and fired a charged shot at where he perdicted the boulder would go next, taking a sizable chunk out of it as it shook violently from the shot.

Next, Markus scoped for a higher view point to avoid the toxic fumes, and saw a small ledge above the valley. Grabbing his grapple shot, he aimed for a rock above and fired, yanking him upwards and onto the ledge, which was about two stories above the ground.

 

[Cailst]

Hayvan shook from the impact of the boulder being shot up but quickly regained balance on the rock in time to see him get pulled up by his grappling hook and get onto the ledge.

Still in control of his rock, Hayvan then picked up the rock that had fallen with the force and then sent it flying at the legs of Markus. If the rock were to miss, it would then hit the ledge and still send Markus back into the canyon where he would get fumed by the gases and would go unconscious.

 

[Phil]

Fortanetly, the rock missed Markus by an inch as he swung out of the way in time, still holding onto his grapple hook as the rock went past him, hitting the ledge as they both shattered in shards. Markus, still dangling above the Valley, knew he risked losing if he went back down in the valley, as he lacked a breath mask. Instead, he saw there was still a small ledge to his right, enough for him to stand and lean against the valley wall. Grabbing a grenade out of his pouch, he primed it, waited a good three seconds, and hurled it towards Hayvan, detonating near him before he could have a chance to push it back, giving Markus enough time to shift his weight towards the remaining small ledge, and took a leap of faith as he landed on it.

He took his rifle out once more, and straffed along the path as he fired at the Jedi, knowing he too would have to get to higher ground if he wants to avoid the toxic fumes...

 

[Cailst]

Hayvan saw the grenade coming towards him and started moving the boulder further back. It wasn't far back enough to survive but Hayvan kept in control of himself and when the boulder shattered, he kept the piece that was directly under him.

With his even smaller platform, he was 50 feet above Markus and could easily see him. Seeing the blaster bolts coming towards him, Hayvan whipped out his lightsaber and blocked most of the shots. One of them hit his cloak but merely burned it a bit.

As he was doing that, he also charged up his lightning gun. Since Markus was on a small ledge, it would hard for him to dodge so Hayvan shot the lightning blast at Markus. At this point, Hayvan had deflected the bolts so he had nothing to distract him as he shot it.

While he was shooting the bolt, the gas now filled up half the canyon.

 

[Phil]

Markus was slowly straffing to his left around the small ledge, wishing he had access to a Jetpack of sort. As he straffed and fired his gun, he noticed that Hayvan had something else in his hand, and before he knew it, lightning struck out of the gun and headed right for Markus. He didnt have a whole lot of time to react as he felt the surge of lightning strike him in the right shoulder and right abdomen area, causing him to jerk as he was shocked by the effects of the gun, his gun going wild as his finger was constantly firing the rifle all over the place, several bolts headed for Hayvan while one hit his rock platform, causing a crack to form in the center of it.

 

[Cailst]

"Crap," Hayvan said as he fell because his perch was destoyed.

He was falling into the canyon and into the poison gas. However, he could survive the gas for a few minutes. The gas was respiratory so he wouldn't die as long as he didn't breathe for a bit. He could also use force breath but that would be useless as he could merely force jump out of the canyon.

As he was falling, he fired a few shots with his pistol but it probably wouldn't hit. More importantly, he was moving one of the other shards of the boulder to pick him up again as he was going to force jump soon and be able to get on it on the way up.

 

[Phil]

Markus quickly recovered from the massive shock, but was still a bit dazed. He still managed to hang onto his rifle as he leaned against the wall of rock behind him, knowing he would be safe from the Gass as it would eventualy seep out of the canyon and into other cracks and caves in the area before it eventualy stopped, but would still be dangerious to go back down to the Valley. He pressed the butt of his rifle against his shoulder, taking precise aim at Hayvan, and firing single, but charged shots at his direction, not caring if his shots hit Hayvan or his small shard.

His bodie was still in pain from the Grenade blast from early and from the shock of the Lightning Gun. Blood was coming from a cut from his right arm and he could feel a tingle in his leg bones. But being a Mandalorian, he was trained to sustain this sort of damage, but didnt know how much more he could take before he passed out from his wounds, or more he might get. Either way, he wasent about to give up and let the Jedi win, atleast not without a good fight...

 

[Cailst]

As Hayvan came back up getting his rock underneath him quickly. While that was happening, he got shot in leg. It was somewhat surprising as he was merely focused on getting back up from his fall. The injury would probably make him incapable of doing much melee for quite a bit of the duel. However, Hayvan still could stand on his rock with his good foot although balance would be a bit difficult.

But since he was hit, Hayvan then put his lightsaber up to block the other incoming shots. Since it seemed to have worked before, Hayvan then charged up his lightning gun and released the charge of lightning onto Markus again.

 

[Phil]

"Oh, not this again..."

He said to himself quietly as he put oll his energy into him as he dove to his right, the lightning striking right where he was, scorching and crasking the wall behind him. This was getting dangerious, one false step and he would lose. when he gained his footing, he reached into his pouch, and pulled out two grenades, priming both of them, waiting several seconds, and lobed them into Hayvan's direction where they detonated early once again. Those were his last grenades, and he hoped he didnt need to use anymore...

 

[Cailst]

Seeing the grenades coming at him, Hayvan force jumped with his good leg into the air. Since he was only using one leg, he didn't go up as far as he hoped and got slightly hit by the concussion of the grenade pushing him upward somewhat and bruising his good leg.

Being pretty high in the air, he decided to throw his last ion grenade at Markus. It was more aimed at his feet as to take out the ledge if he missed or it was blocked. He tried to make sure it went as fast as possible so he speeded it up with the force as fast as he could so that it would be even less likely that he would miss.

As he was doing that, he was looking at the ground for any more rocks to sit on since he would arrive at the ground in 3-4 seconds so he would still be able to get a rock in that time with the force. The gas was transparent enough for him to see rocks at the bottom.

A tiny bit after he started looking, he saw a small rock that he would pick up and use for another perch. So then he began pulling at it with the force once he had fully accelerated the ion grenade.

 

[Phil]

As Markus watched his last grenades detonate, and thinking they worked, he saw the Jedi obtain yet another small platform. The Canyon was now full of gass, and would render anyone unconscious if they fell into it in less then a minute without proper head wear, or some magic ability the Jedi would use to breath, and Markus lacked both. When he was firing his rifle at Hayvan, he saw a small object move towards him at an alarming rate as he moved to his right, the small object turned out to be a Ion Grenade as it went right under Markus's arm and slammed into the wall behind him, still sticking out.

Continuing to move at his left, he realized that the ledge ended a little ways away, and that he was stuck on a ledge unless he could find another. He looked up, and saw several more jagged rocks, sturdy enough to grab and possibly stand on, and it was near the Canyon's top. As the Grenade exploded, the platform Markus was on slowly started to crumble. Laying down some covering fire at Hayvan, he Pulled out his Hookshot, and aimed it at one of the rocks above him, and was yanked upwards as his platform was no more, crumbled to little fragments.

Markus pulled himself up, and realized that this was where he would have to make his final stand, there was no more rock platforms for him, just this last one, and the gas below.He pulled out his rifle and looked at the Jedi.

"Ok, Jedi! This is where it ends, give me all you got!"

He yelled, shooting at Hayvan in multiple directions at a rapid speed of his rifle, knowing he would have to throw a new clip into it soon...

 

[Cailst]

Hayvan landed on the rock that he had been pulled up to stop his fall. It slightly hurt but it wasn't going to hurt him. Since both of his legs were in someway injured, he decided to sit on the rock rather than stand on it. The seat was slightly uncomfortable but it would do. He was holding on to it with his legs so it would be hard to fall off this perch.

As he saw shots coming in, he whipped out his lightsaber and blocked most of them though one came by and grazed the side of his face.

Once that bit of fire came then he fired his blaster pistol at Markus a couple time not particularly accurate but it would be good enough for the moment till he could be acclimated to his rock.

 

[Phil]

Markus took a leaping side step to his right to avoid the blaster fire. There had to be a way to either get the Jedi towards him, or down in the gas. He was all out of grenades, all he had was his two guns, his blade, and his hookshot. He thought about shooting the hookshot at the Jedi's platform and attempting to yank him off, but quickly dispatched the idea, as it was too risky and would result in either him or both losing the match.

He might beable to wear the Jedi out by constantly shooting at him, and he would have to either dodge or deflect his shots. Eitherway, he knew the Jedi wouldent beable to keep floating there forever. Dispatching the empty clip on the ground, and slapping a new clip into his rifle, primed it, and started to open fire on the Jedi once more, straffing a bit as well.

 

[Cailst]

Hayvan began blocking the shots with a bit more vigor than before as two legs were already somewhat useless as they had been hit. Now he was using a bit more of his strength and was getting somewhat tired. Still, he had chemicals running through him that would ensure that he could keep on going for several hours without fully tiring out.

So as he blocked those shots, he charged up another lightning blast. He was hoping the previous success of it would continue so he then released it. His lightsaber was blocking other things at the same time but did not get in the way of the lightning blast.

 

[Phil]

In the middle of gunning down the Jedi, or attempting, he saw him pull out his gizmo again, and saw that another jolt of Lightning was emiting from it. He dove behind a large rock that was on his ledge, not sure if the lightning would go through it or not. Either way, he knew this would go on for a while, and that he needed a quick solution. Looking above him, he noticed that there were several narrow, but sturdy rock beams on the top of the canyon, going from one end to the other, that thats where Markus got his idea.

He spotted one was going almost just to the right of Markus and Hayvan, and that he knew what he would have to do to attempt to win. The risk was high, and it would truely be insane to attempt it, but Markus was willing to take that chance, and dove out from the rock, aiming his hookshot at the beam above them, the hook shooting right into the beam and getting stuck. Markus flipped a small switch on it as he was yanked off his platform, above the gas filled canyon and under the beam as he swung about a bit, holding the hookshot handle with one hand and his pistol in the other.

He was already going fast enough when he was zipped foward, using his bodie to stear left, towards the Jedi. As he was swinging towards Hayvan, he took aim with his pistol, or tried too, as he was still hurting from the Grenade Blast and Lightning Blast from earlier, and took several pop shots at the Jedi.

 

[Cailst]

Seeing as the lightning blast has failed for the moment, Hayvan watched the mandalorian climb around in the ledge that he was in. Then, Hayvan saw Markus shoot his hookshot and start flying across the canyon.

Seeing the popshots coming towards him, Hayvan easily deflected the few that were coming towards him. However, as Markus was just about to fly past him, Hayvan come up with an idea. Once Markus was past him, Hayvan decided that he would move his little rock to right behind and below Markus and keep it moving to maintain the same . From there, Hayvan then slashed at Markus's feet aiming to chop them off. Since he would largely be below Markus, it would be hard for him to be able to respond to Hayvan's attack.
