::Daken's move would rely on Jor's forward momentum. As the strike came, Daken ducked and parried the blow over his head with his lightsaber in his right hand, keeping his saber between himself and Jor's saber. He then used the force to augment a strike into the back of Jor's shoulder as the attack passed, hopefully sending the flying man spinning out of control. While doing this, Daken took a step backwards and slightly to the right, to avoid his foe's charging body.::

Jor's body spun slightly from the impact and sparks shot from his shoulder blade. His left foot hit the ground first and it skidded a few inches. His right foot came down and he had to take a few steps to slow his momentum. He didn't slow down though because as soon as he had his momentum under control he was turning around and running again.
He hit the duel phase on his lightsaber again, extending it out to it's double length and it shifted from green to white. He started swiping it back and forth like a giant armored lawnmower from hell. Even in his older suits of armor, his leg would be killing him by now, but now he was just as active as he used to be.

::Daken, instead of waiting, now ran at his foe, catching Jor's lightsaber on his own to stop it from moving back and forth, using Jor's lack of leverage to aid him as he got in close. Once he reached the end of the white lightsaber, he deactivated his own and rolled under Jor's right arm, letting the blade pass over him, and moving to the side of his moving enemy. As Jor passed, Daken activated his lightsaber, taking a slash at Jor's undefended propulsion system.::

Jor's lightsaber shifted back to green and came up over his head to block the blow to his back. He rolled to the side to face his enemy again. He ducked down, bending on one knee and lunging forward with his lightsaber stabbing towards Dakens waist.

::Daken stepped to his left side and parryed the blow away from his body, stepping into the lunging attack. He once again locked out Jor's saber, keeping his foe in an awkward lunging position. He struck out towards Jor's neck with his left elbow, turning his body to defend it from strikes.::

"Ouch. You Judo Elbowed my neck." Jor said as he pulled back and rubbed the gap between his helmet and collar. "You could hurt someone if you keep doing stuff like that."
Jor did a quick diagnostic. His shield generator was out, his blaster pistol was crushed and depleted anyway but the rest of his systems were working within acceptable parameters. However, this guy was proving himself to be a nuisance. His lightsaber skills were a bit flashy, but considerable.
"How often do you practice with that thing?" Jor said pointing to Daken's lightsaber with his own.

::Daken brought his saber back around into his Soresu stance.::
"Every day since I was four years old."
::He inched forward, no longer sure why he was fighting this man. He would have to find a way to either disarm him or knock him unconscious.::
"That is an impressive suit that you have there...Phrik if I am not mistaken..."

"It's time to put the saber down and find a party or something man." Jor said twirling the lightsaber once at his side as his opponent inched forward. "If you relax for a little bit as much as you practice your sabering you won't put out so many diamonds when you take a crap."
Jor decided it was time to switch tactics. So far he had been going with brute, cybornetically enhanced strength. wear the guy down with heavy handed hits. Now he switched to speed. Jor's grip on his lightsaber hilt changed from the tight baseball bat grip to one where his forefinger ran up the length, pointed towards the top.
Jor turned his side to Daken, lightsaber out, and took one step forward. He stabbed towards Dakens head then, without waiting for the parry to come, went with a quick horizontal slash at his neck and then quickly went with another stab towards the stomach.

::Now that his foe was not using power strikes, Daken settled for simple blocking. He deflected the first blow high, and with caught the second blow with his lightsaber in a vertical, sweeping motion to his side. As Jor withdrew his saber for the next attack, Daken followed with his own, moving into Jor's space as the attack came. With Daken's flowing water maneuver, his violet blade was already close enough to Jor's to make a simple parry of the stab.
As the stab passed, Daken made a quick blow of his own. He struck in a swift, vertical attack, stepping away from Jor's saber, and to his back side.::

Jor caught the vertical attack with his one blade, crossing horizontally with Dakens. Jor stuck his foot out slightly toward taken and fired the Ion jet for just a quick moment, enough to kick up a plume of dust from the ground beneath them.
Jor used the detraction to punch Daken in the face several times with his free hand while their sabers were crossed overhead.

::Daken only took one punch before lowering his horned head, throwing a powerful knee to the groin, and breaking away from the lock. His cheek was cut from the impact of Jor's knuckles, and began to trickle blood. His foe was clever.
Daken had perhaps been impatient. He began to circle Jor in his Soresu stance, recognizing many aspects of the Makashi style in his foe's stance. However, he knew that his opponent didn't play by the rules. He made a feint at Jor's legs, darting forward just a little bit.::

Again, Jor's groin was armored but kicking it was still a shot to the pride. His lightsaber flipped into a backhand hold and he leaped and spun at Daken, striking vertically like a buzz saw.

::As his foe spun, Daken took a step towards the way his opponent was spinning, also moving forward. As Jor's blade came down there would be nothing there. Daken had moved past the blow and to the side, holding his lightsaber out horizontally, causing Jor to turn into a sort of Lightsaber lariat. He performed this maneuver with his right hand, turning to face his opponent.::

Jor sprawled out on the ground. His opponents maneuver had thrown his spin off and made him go off balance. Jor was not ye experienced enough with the XAN suit systems to counteract the strike and he lost his footing upon landing on the ground.
When he got up again, scorch marks and pits could be seen plain as day around his shoulders and top of his helmet. His face mask had a blackened, partially melted scar running down it's surface on the right side.
"I just painted it two." he said examining the damage.

::Daken circled away from Jor to the scorched right side of his visor, holding his saber in a less dramatic Soresu stance than he previously had. He admired his handywork. However, he knew that his foe would be just fine inside of that monstrous armor. It didn't matter though. Inside of Daken was a war-hungry dog that would fight until there was no fighting left to be done...he would finish the fight by any means necessary.
To further hinder Jor's sight, Daken called upon the force, kicking up a plume of dust into the man's face before leading with his lightsaber in a short, diagonal strike from left to right across his body.::
