She held out her hand and concentrated... And eventually, her sword appeared in her hand. "...hey Tails, if you don't mind me asking," she muttered. "...how come Metal is helping you guys? Doesn't he work for Dr. Eggman?"

"...well... the thing about that..." Tails sighed, as he pushed a button on the hilt, letting a green beam of light emerge from it, forming the blade of his sword. "...Eggman's... apparently dead."

Jill's eyes widened in shock. "What? Really?!"

"...well... not dead dead, but... Aleena said something along those lines..." Tails shook his head a little. "...me and Sonic won't buy into it, but... ever since we stopped his genie plan, he's just been... gone."

"...wow...it is a little hard to believe," she muttered. "...and...Metal's just been with you guys since then?"

"...pretty much." Tails remarked. "He's really sardonic, sure... but he's been a big help."

"So...he's not the bad guy?" She still seemed a little confused on the matter.

"...not really." Tails mused. "I mean, he's been helping you out a bit, right? I didn't get the details, but he and Aleena did help you out briefly not too long ago..."

"...yeah, they did," Jill mumbled thoughtfully. "...and I haven't really properly thanked them either...they've actually saved me on more than one occasion."

Tails chuckled a little. "...I guess Metal's just become a good guy on his own..." With a small hum, he looked back at the sword she held. "...so... how are you able to use that kind of sword? Is it Order?"

"Yeah, I think so," Jill said. "Um...Rob and Griff are responsible for my abilities, and they're Aleena's friends...so they'd all have a better understanding of it than I would." "...although I haven't heard from Rob or Griff for quite some time now..."

Tails hummed, as he simply looked back at his sword again. "...I... still wonder about all of these new forces... but we're getting ahead of ourselves." He looked back at Jill. "We were going to practice a little?"

"Yeah," and she held up he sword. "Go ahead and try to strike me so I can see how you are with it."

With a small breath, Tails held the sword... and he ran to swing at Jill. PP: 4 LP: 9 MP: 8 [dice=9] (+5 w/Pillow Talk)[rand=5980941565765574179666404807736882469024002591703249615202187881335]

[dice=6] Surprisingly enough, Tails got a slice at her arm and she jumped back. "...where did you get that sword by the way? I think I've seen it before..." And she went to swing at Tails with her sword. PP: 7 LP: 6 MP: 8 [dice=13] (+6 with her blade)[rand=665177230711630345280681241261855639509130527288211439597987949479]

[dice=9] "Gah!" Even as he raised his sword, the blow knocked him back a bit. "...Metal gave it to me while I was recovering." he replied, before he swung at Jill again. [dice=9][rand=67340372479831528169531530930003642246923639862417552128945706325]

She got forced back by the blow attempting to block it as well. "Recovering from what?" as she threw another slash his way. [dice=13][rand=428582152071381253434280668832334149633979654173734438671093682494]

[dice=9] The attack knocked Tails back again. "...I'd rather not talk about it." he responded, before slashing again. [dice=9][rand=2103187612326076212918573037345404146697605037150019919801438339031]

[dice=6] Jill actually jumped away from it this time. "...that's fair," she answered. And she lunged again. [dice=13][rand=6818995932117105542985990643501324411195167340338479201398557052]

"Gah!" This time, even as he raised his sword to block, the strike just knocked the sword out of his grasp, making him stagger back.

"Whoops! Sorry," Jill muttered. "...I think I put a little too much force into it."

"...no, don't worry about it; I'm just not used to this." Tails remarked with a light, sheepish chuckle, before he picked up his sword again. "...I don't think just swinging at you is getting me anywhere... I need some kind of technique..."

Post by JC303 on Aug 6, 2013 12:15:18 GMT -5
"Yes, you do..." She hummed, rubbing her chin. "...question is, what technique would work well with that sword..."

"...I don't know..." Tails remarked, as he rubbed his head whilst looking at the sword. "...I looked it over briefly before, but apart from the beam blade, I couldn't find any kind of properties about the sword that stand out..." Deactivating it, he just chuckled before taking a stance, as if he were to draw it from an invisible sheath. "...but even if I don't find any sort of technique, I guess it'd make for a neat decorative piece..." As he spoke to himself, all of a sudden, the hilt began vibrating quite suddenly, which caught Tails' attention. "...huh...?!"

Jill noticed it too, and observed it in surprise, wondering what was going to happen.
