The robot and the hooded stranger stared at each other for some time. "Well then shall we begin?" Asked Moonstar. "Just a moment, let's just stand and stare at each other a bit more...for suspense." StrangeMan queried.
...
"Well since we're standing around, maybe I shou-" StrangeMan then shot the bot before he could finish his sentence. Luckily for the bot, he dodged it just in time. "Enough talk, we fight now!" StrangeMan stated. "Agreed" Replied Moonstar.
Moonstar shot three crescent shots from his buster, Two of which made an large circle like turn and retreated back into his buster, and one that was homing in on StrangeMan. "Left step, right before Right step" Said StrangeMan as he dodged the two. The last one he dodged, but the shot just arced it's way back to StrangeMan. "Oh, I homing one, haven't encountered those in a while." StrangeMan began running after Moonstar. The robot jumped hign and said: "I may have fallen for that trick once, but not twice." StrangeMan stopped below Moonstar. He jumped and turned side-ways in mid air. When the crescent got withing StrangeMan's range, he made a quick clockwise turn, sending the buster shot straight up, towards Moonstar. Moonstar grunted from the impact and fell back to the ground. "Who said I was doing that old trick?" StrangeMan told the injured robot. "...he he. Not bad...However...we're still not finished yet." Moonstar pointed his buster at the hooded man. The buster grew larger, and extended crescent shaped wings on it's top and bottom. "Take this!" He then fired a large crescent shaped laser. "AAGH!! Big laser is Big!" Luckily, StrangeMan was able to jump over the laser, which only phazed the tip of his shoes. "Few, that was close...now then" StrangeMan right cape wrapped itself around his arm, transforming into a .exe-esque saber. "...Let's get serious" StrangeMan charged at his opponent with his sword help up high. "You really need to pay better attention to you're opponent." Moonstar queried. StrangeMan was confused...that is until he noticed that the moons adorning Moonstar's ring were missing. StrangeMan turned and saw the three flying crescents hoverin behind him. One of the crescents fired a laser, but StrangeMan managed to deflect it with his sword. "You should watch your back stranger." Moonstar told StrangeMan as he pointed his buster at his back. StrangeMan's left cape wrapped itself around his other arm, right before Moonstar shot another Crescent laser. The attack pushed StrangeMan far back into the wall, smoke covered the arena. "That should have taking care of him...but...why do I feel like that's far from the truth?" Moonstar asked himself. As the smoke cleared, Moonstar saw a fairly large shield, with an angry face as it's design. "phew, another one of those, and Icould die." StrangeMan lowered his shield. And began charging at his opponent again. "I told you, that's not gonna work" The moon based robot sent out his remote controlled crescents at StrangeMan once again. However, StrangeMan quickly jumped towards them and sliced each one with his sword. "...crap" mummered Moonstar. "I still have one trick up my sleave. Moonstar twisted his upper body foward, releasing his ring at StrangeMan. "Oooh, Frisbee" StrangeMan's capes quickly unwrapped and then rewrapped themselves around his arms, they then transformed into large gauntles with angry faces on the back of each hand. StrangeMan grabbed the ring just before it could slice him in half. "WHAT!?! THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!! MY RING CAN CUT THROUGH THE STRONGEST OF METALS!!" Moonstar shouted angrily. "Well my gauntlets are made of something stronger..." StrangeMan then flung back Moonstar's ring back at him, slicing off his buster arm. "...course...IT'S ALSO HEAVY AS HELL!!" StrangeMan stated as he struggled to raise his arms from the floor. "Heh...well you beat me...so go ahead and destroy me" Moonstar told the hoodd stranger. StrangeMan's caped had transformed back into their normal state, he walked towards the damaged robot and told him: "Now why would I do that, are you not un-armed...pun not intended. Besides, I only fought you to train myself...and you did a very good job as my sparring partner" StrangeMan smiled at the robot "Don't smile at me like that. It's bad enough that i was defeated by some Afroed man, but now I was defeated by some hooded wierdo who always smiles...that's just...unfair...the least you could do is destroy me and spare me the embarassment." Moonstar explained to the stranger. "True...but then I'd be destroying a friend." Those were StrangeMan's last words to his opponent, before he left to go to the next fortress robot master. "...a...friend?" Moonstar was confused as to what he meant by that, considering they had never met until just a few minutes ago. As StrangeMan walked the fortress halls, he remembered an old training robot he used to spar with, one with a similar ability like Moonstar's.
