Billy was still and as silent as she could be. She heard the SPLAT of Juno hitting the ground and as she reeled in her lasso, she felt it's lack of Juno within it. She heard some SQUELCHING sounds coming from the other side of the log assuming it would be him getting up. Her first plan(now dashed), her still needing to prove herself, and that burning need for victory, egged her on to do probably the next stupidest thing she could think of. She jumped from the crouching position behind the log to the top of it to quickly locate her competitor. As soon as she located him, she fired off a round at him. She then flipped her rifle into hammer mode and got ready for a close-up, one on one, mele action.

Juno hissed as the round impacted his free arm’s shoulder, eyes flicking to the direction of the offending shot, only to be taken aback when he saw his opponent. She had jumped onto the log. Why? Hell if he knew. But he could make this work. Maintaining the charge despite the sword’s lowering dust supply, Juno slowly began to walk back, gesturing for her to strike him. ”Aight, I see how it is.” He mused, glancing at his sword, the normally obsidian dust catylist now burning with a brilliant white glow.

“I want you to hit me. As hard as you can. Show me what you can do with that thing.”

"Let's dance." Billy said in her southern Vaccuon drawl. She charged him, running down the log. Then jumping and flying toward him, with her hammer ready to fly downward on to him at a slight angle, she struck with almost the same force, if not more, as her gun would have.

As the girl swung, Juno took a deep breath, steeling himself for the impact... only for his aura to erupt around him, his brilliant violet subsiding just enough to reveal what seemed to be a silhouette of the young man, with its only prominent features being brilliant white hair and a pair of pure, glowing white eyes. The impact did not shake Juno, his timely activation of Full Stop had made sure of that. Sure, it stung, but the hammer’s weight and momentum meant nothing in the face of an all but immovable object.

Once Juno found the freedom to move again, he acted quickly, grabbing Billy by the arm and throwing her to the ground before crouching over her and firmly planting a hand on her back, his sword bearing arm reared back for a punch. ”Good try.” he mused before lashing out, removing his hand just a second before he punched her in the spine with his blade.

The punch itself wasn’t much to write home about. The explosion that followed, however, shook the stage itself, displacing the water around them and cracking the ground across both biomes. It was no mistake that Juno had triggered Full Stop before striking with Type J, as the fiery eruption that ensued from his strike would have no doubt thrown him into the other side of the arena. As the flames, dust, and clumps of dirt and rock thrown about subsided, Juno stood above his opponent, his body singed and sore. Breathing heavily, the young man stepped back a bit from his opponent, planting his sword into the ground as water began to trickle into the small crater his impact had resulted in.

In spite of his pain, a quick glance to the scoreboard was all that was needed to bring a smile to his lips. 47% to 12%, much cleaner than his match with Coconut. However, a look to his opponent gave cause for that smile to falter, as he dropped into a squat in order to get a closer look. ”Hey, uh... you doing alright?”

Billy didn't exactly know what was going on, just that it was a semblance thing that she hadn't accounted for. And man was that semblance thing strong. Time seemed to go in 'fast-forward' mode as Billy was thrown to the ground and had her back almost obliterated. There was a huge explosion that happened directly on top of her and with how fast she felt her aura healing her she knew she was out of the fight.

"Hey, uh... you doing alright?” Came from behind her as soon as her hearing came back from the blast.

She rolled onto her aching back and threw up a thumbs up, before sitting up slowly. She was covered in marsh slime but she seemed to have a mildly cheerful attitude about her situation.

"That was some great fighting going on back there. Great skill." Billy said as she tipped her hat to him.

"I'll be rootin' for you in the next round."
