Shadow enters the arena of darkness, ready to fight.

rules: all normal sim-battle rules. Only one person may fight me.

From the darkness a bright light flashes, and out steps Janus, with nothing but the clothes on his back and a satchel slung over his back. He is lazy and loose in movement, relaxed.

Janus: "Well, I'm sure I'll hardly be a match for you, but I'm willing to take a shot. Now then... Face the Master of Mediocrity!"

Janus swings his satchel from his side, bringing it into as much of a guard stance as one can with a simple duffel bag.

OOC: When you say arena of darkness, is it an actual dark arena, one without light, or just spooky and mysterious?

OOC One without light, filled with dark energy, or chi, if you will.

Shadow runs behind Janus and lunges with his sword.

"Eat blade!"

Shadow then rolls to the other side of the arena, awaiting the results of his slash.

Since he can't see, hearing Shadow's footsteps and shouting is all Janus can use for sensory protection. Despite being unable to fully dodge the slash, Janus hears Shadow's shout and attempts to get out of the way, suffering a minor cut to his side in the process.

Janus: "Ha, you don't mess around, do you? Right, I'll need to see to defeat you, so I better do something about all this darkness."

Running as far from where he believes Shadow is (right behind him, considering the last attack), Janus unzips his bag and pulls out a small disc. : "You know my fighting style is based around gaming, right? Any time someone puts in the name "Janus" as their name in a video game, I get access to a new game to draw my power from. Of course, there's a drawback. I never know what power I'll have access to next, so I generally have to work with the odds against me. Fortunately, there's a solution. If I can find a game where the odds will predominantly suit me, I'll usually get a good draw."

He throws the disc in the air. As he does, it breaks apart and a blue light begins to shine, allowing the room to be properly lit. The light then drops to Janus' hand like a stone. "Materia, for example, has a nice, healthy glow to it. This one's a blue Materia from disc 2 of Final Fantasy 7, so it won't be much use to me as of yet, just an elemental Materia. But the light should be enough for me to see you, as long as I keep it hooked to my satchel here. Granted, I was hoping for something to help me fight as well, but I can deal. It's a shame, though. Waste of a good game, and I don't exactly have another one to work with."

He stands still again, hooks the glowing blue ball to his satchel, and waits, ready for his foe's next attack. The blue ball, activated by being hooked to the satchel, now provides enough light for Janus to see a vague distance in front of him.

Being in front of Janus, Shadow is easily spotted. Deciding to get away fom the light, he pulls out a gameboy.

"Let's see what this baby can do."

Putting in hamtaro, he enters his name as...Janus!

"Let's see how you react to that!"

Janus frowns. Nothing happens to him.

Janus: "I'm quite aware that you think you're being funny, but you'd best not mock me. I said ANY, not at the moment, and my abilities only work one way, so your tactic won't exactly work. And as you seem to have a problem with the use of my powers, I might as well play along and not use them. I DO have other attacks, after all. But thank you very much for the new game, I always appreciate extra help."

Scowling, Janus reaches into a pouch on his satchel and seems to flip a switch. A long handle extends from the satchel, which has become harder and more box-shaped, forming a crude hammer. "I suppose I'll wait for the rest of the games, and just use the bag."

"This bag is quite heavy, you know. In its current form it's a useful bludgeoning weapon. It's as light as a feather to me, but I'll be sure to let you know how it feels to be hit by it."

Wielding it like a warhammer, Janus swings at Shadow.

Rolling with the blow, Shadow expects to completely avoid the bag. Underestimating it's weight, Shadow is knocked, spinning, to the ground.

"Didn't see that one coming."

Getting to his feet, Shadow crouches at ready for his opponents next swing.

"Let's see if he likes this trick"

Janus: "Ah, I'm not as easy as you thought, huh? Well, if you're ready for me, I obviously shouldn't attack you in the same way."

Shouldering the bag hammer, Janus closes his eyes and begins to concentrate. The bag seems to glow with a strange energy. After a few seconds, Janus then hurls the hammer with both hands and sends it into a spin aimed straight at Shadow. If it misses, it'll return to him like a boomerang. Unfortunately, as the Materia was hooked to the bag, Janus also can no longer see until the bag returns to him.

Janus: "Let's see how you deal with this!"

Deciding to hold onto the bag, Shadow returns with it, flying at Janus with super-human speeds. Putting out his arms, Shadow decides to try to tackle his opponent with a fierce gesture.

Janus: "I figured you'd try something like that!"

As the bag begins its return arc, Janus stands at the ready. As Shadow lets go of the bag, Janus uses his control over the bag to send it hurtling past Shadow and back into Janus' hands. Using the momentum from the bag, Janus swings in a roundabout arc and looks like he's about to hit Shadow back. However, at the last second, Shadow hits Janus and Janus lets go of the bag, sending it flying once again. Janus is sent flying and slams heavily into the arena wall with Shadow's tackle, bruised but not broken. The bag is nowhere to be seen.

"Oww... I was never very good at baseball..."

Janus gets up dizzily, and attempts to prepare for his opponent's next move, bagless and without a form of attack that Shadow can see.

Not seeing any form of defense Shadow decides to bum rush his opponent.

"Tackle!"

Running for the tackle, Shadow catches an inkling of danger.

Janus sees the fear in his foe's eyes, grins, and winks. The Hammer comes flying towards Shadow's bum rush at breakneck speed, with intent to harm and disrupt Shadow's attack.

Knocking Shadow over, the hammer returns to Janus. Rolling on the floor, Shadow stumbles to his feet.

OOC: First and foremost, you don't control my weapons. I do. But thanks anyway.

Janus: "You're tough as well. Care to attack me again?"

Janus shoulders the hammer and smiles politely at his opponent.

"It's your move, as far as I'm concerned."

OOC sorry.

Shadow readies his trusty rifle, and fires at his enemy.

"Eat lead!"

Putting his rifle away, Shadow starts to run.

Almost too slow to dodge the bullet entirely, Janus pulls himself out of the way when he sees Shadow firing and suffers a scratch across the chest. He is bleeding slightly.

Janus: "Guns, huh? Not too much I can do about that..."

'(thinking) Unfortunately this leaves me at a severe disadvantage. I'm a target if I use the bag in missile combat, and I'll never get him into proper melee if he keeps running like that. Man, I AM too dependent on my powers... But he has a rifle, which means if he wants to hit me, he'll have to stop at some point to aim, it's nearly impossible to hit someone with a rifle while moving. And while he moves, I'll move too!'

Bag at the ready, Janus unhooks the blue Materia and pockets it, enshrouding himself in the darkness once again. 'It'll also help me if he can't see me." he thinks. Janus sprints off into the darkness, listening for Shadow's movements.

Janus: "Hey, logic question! What happens when a large, heavy object strikes the ground at a high speed?"

Janus leaps into the air and hurls the hammer straight at the ground. The combined acceleration of gravity and Janus' throw will give the bag enough velocity to create a huge shockwave when it hits the ground. As Janus is in the air, he will be unaffected, but will not have the bag until he calls it back to him. He is not flying, and will land after the shockwave finishes.

"There's an earthquake!" He yells as he hurls the hammer.

A giant crack spreading in the floor, Shadow decides to straddle it until he can determine which side of it his opponent is on. Readying himself, Shadow strains to hear his opponent in the dark.

Suddenly, the crack turns into a gigantic gap, about a hundred yards long. Right in the nick of time, Shadow jumps to one side.

"I hope that this is the right side."

Janus lands on the opposite side of the crack from Shadow and calls the hammer back to him. As the bottom half of the arena has cracked, so has the top half. If this is indeed a closed space, then logically outside of it daylight should be shining into the crack in the arena. Shadows remain where the light from outside cannot shine, but the visibility around the crack should have increased. Janus leaps outside, onto the arena roof (at the base of the top crack) and into the light.

Janus: "I'd consider this terrain unsuitable for a battle. Let's continue this fight on more even grounds. I'm tired of thrashing around in the darkness."

Janus assumes a fighting stance again, hammer in front, and positions himself so that Shadow's accuracy with his rifle will be diminished by having to adjust his eyes to the light outside the arena.

"Bring it on!"
