"Your Gunpla is impressive. World-level though, I'm not so sure."

While he spoke, Echo Barbatos and the Origin met in battle. That simple thrust of his beam saber betrayed no counter measures, no subtle misdirections. It was honest, and to put bluntly, easy to counter.

He had been preparing himself to sacrifice the Barbatos' arm to win but that tactic quickly flew out the window. Instead, on a whim, he matched their beam sabers against each other; causing them to push until they fizzled out and the Gunplas violently embraced.

Natsu extended the Echo Barbatos' Tail-Blade quickly, bringing the blade whiplashing out until it stood still at the Origin's crown. A glow starting to form on the attached blaster.

"Let's stop now."

Natsu was surprised.

For a moment he had been truly surprised. Nanashi had said he was a poor battler but perhaps his Gunpla was making up for that. Not likely, he mused, taking a short moment to glance over at Barbatos' remaining life-signs. Its energy was just over half. Fifty-one percent huh? I'll make it work. Nanashi is an exceptional Builder. He's almost as good as, Yuma, but he overestimated himself severely. Sousuke's Crossbone Joker was too much for him, and now ... even with this "Origin" upgrade. He won't be enough to put me down and win this match.

Echo Barbatos straightened its posture before drawing its remaining beam saber from its hip. Igniting it revealed that it was slightly shorter than the other.

"You won't like hearing the last echo, Nanashi," Natsu droned as he pushed the Barbatos straight up then rushed it down at the Origin Gundam.

The beam sabers guarded his torso and head but left enough space for the Barbatos to attack. "Listen clearly to the Barbatos' will, hear my echo within it, Nanashi-san." He applied the honorific out of respect for the man's courage. Even still, it was going to suck ... the fall out from this emotionally-charged match.

@Crimson Lion Well it might have been better to discuss this with us first lol. I assumed you just wanted to get trounced by better Gunpla Battlers.

Though I did have a inkling about the lesson. I just wasn't sure how it would play out.

Gundam Build Fighters Origin [Open]

@Crimson Lion Correct me if I'm wrong but it seemed like this battle was suppose to be some kind of plot scenario. Were you suppose to win and teach Natsu and Sousuke something cool?

Nyo Foekus

---

"The Force will be with you, always."

---

Name: Nyo Foekus.

Age: 16 Standard Years.

Homeworld: Syk-K.

Side and Rank: Rebellion / Self-Proclaimed Jedi.

Feats: Nyo received instruction in the Force from a stranger in hopes that he would the Rebellion when the chanced presented itself. From the perspective of his Master, Nyo held a strong connection to the Force. These are the abilities he learned from his Master.

• Force Speed
• Force Sense
• Force Sight
• Farseeing
• Force Empathy
• Mind Trick
• Telekinesis

Biography: As a child, Nyo was well known as a delinquent and widely recognized as a bad omen. It was not often that peace remained when he was around. Things would break, people would feel hands around their chests or throats. His bad luck wasn't common but every generation a villager would be the center of odd activity. Nyo's mother refused to let her child be shunned and ignored. She spat in the face of tradition by refusing the village chief and that costed her.

During the raid on their cavern home, his mother did die but Nyo caused the dwelling to crumble in; killing well over six High-Warriors and one Spirit-Blade ( a respected fraud who claimed to see beyond the void or space). That truth spread far and fear stilled the villagers rage from then onwards.

On his thirteenth-year-of-life, Nyo encountered a loosely robed stranger. This man stayed with him for a year. The first month he had taught Nyo the intricacies of Basic. By the third the Stranger had recognized the planet as a loose conduit for the Force. Force-sensitives weren't born but chosen by the Planet. His fourth, fifth, and sixth months were spent instructing young Nyo in the ways of the Force. He spoke wonders of a sect called the Jedi and hoped one day that Nyo would join the Rebellion and bring the Empire to its knees.

His remaining half year was filled with lessons of the known galaxy, tellings of the current state of things, and hopes of what Nyo's future could mean in the long-run ... Then the Stranger left. Without a word of farewell to his Padawan. Nyo had known he had come to the Outer Rim in search of Force-sensitives but he never expected his Master would continue his search after so long with him.

A standard year and many months later, Nyo would find a working by-gone space-vessel on his planet and leave Syk-K. A month afterwards, as if guided by the Force, he bumped into a Jedi heading to the Unknown Regions and convinces them to take him along.

Natsu was close behind Sousuke, pushing his excessive, yet subtly placed boosters to their limits. Outside of the battle, on his leftward monitor was an image of Sousuke. A part of him felt the same anger but he could comfortably say that it was being glazed over by nonchalance. The Crossbone Joker was on the offense now, beating and pushing the X Strike Gundam towards the Earth. As he was following the Crossbone Joker's path he noticed its discarded Joker Magnum; he swiped it from dead space and continued on.

Alarming beeps warned him of shots fired.

Natsu threw the Echo Barbatos into an advanced maneuver, having the Gunpla swirl just out of range of the first shot, before veering from the rest. All the while, clear to see afterimages were copying its movements in the desolation of space. God. Crossbone Joker's fast. Faster than my Echo by a bit. I think its using Trans-Ams and if it works in the same manner as the show ... Meaning it'll be out of commission after a moment. Shit! No, I can make it!

Natsu pushed Echo Barbatos' boosters to its limits, emitting its plavasky particles in a trail of twisting lasers. Fin-Funnels go."

The four funnels circled the Joker Magnum's barrel, spinning and aiming down its sights at the fleeing X Strike Gundam. A high-whine permeated Natsu's ears as he got a feel for the power of his partner's weapon. As it surged to full power, Natsu fixed his aim on X-Strike and fired its high-powered beam. Simultaneously, he fired his Fin-Funnels long-ranged weaker beams, extending and amplifying the weapons already impressive firepower.

"I'll call this the Wild Card Surprise."

@Crimson Lion lol looks like Nanashi didn't do his homework before prodding Sousuke. The Crossbone Joker has some killer tricks up its sleeves.

Gundam Build Fighters Origin [Open]

Let's hope we can keep Sousuke from going over that line.

Well I'll be back on in a few hours. About to hit the sack.

Gundam Build Fighters Origin [Open]

Natsu responded with one dry word to Sousuke. "Yea."

He was onboard with blowing the entire colony to space dust if it meant, Nanashi being taught a valuable lesson. But before he could implement that plan, the entire colony had begun to shake and rumble. Super-vacuumed fissures tore through the cylinder as the outside pressure had begun to its innards.

Natsu was quick to react, boosting Barbatos straight up. As it passed the Crossbone Joker, Natsu spoke to Sousuke over the comms. "Lesson one?" he commented with disinterest. "My last period was over awhile ago."

The Barbatos popped out of one of the fissures and landed on the falling space-colony. "And its Aznable ... not Annabel." he muttered under his breath.

Barbatos' Tail-Blade extended from its backside, whipping about with little care for the properties of space. A red glow, sharp and lagging drifted from its eyes. An unnatural snarl defied space as well. Natsu spotted Nanashi's "other" Gunpla. It was pristine looking, almost as good as Echo Barbatos but it lacked a certain wild-power to it.

"Sousuke, you got a plan?"

Gundam Build Fighters Origin [Open]

Natsu sometimes forgot the blue screens and readouts that appeared about him. It was hard to focus on them when he would often meld with Echo Barbatos. His senses would either go numb or become completely immersed in the simulation. Now, as was typical, was the case.

"Roar and go, Echo."

The Gunpla soared over the cityscape, its' Fin-Funnels extending from its' side like a mechanical wing. Natsu, with a bit of effort anchored himself to the safe confines of the simulation screens and such. How pointless. I know all of Echo's equipment and moves like the back of my hand. The rest of these readouts are novel at best.

He shook his head and returned to the field, un-clipping a beam saber and ignited its sizzling blade while dropping for cover. He landed behind a cluster of buildings that neared the edge of the forest. The Fin-Funnels detached themselves, floating off in different directions not too far from the Barbatos.

"This game of cat and mouse is beginning to seem like your M.O. Nanashi."
