Adieumus couldn't help but smile. She was an agility fighter...utilizing speed and quickness as her weapon. She was trying to use similar tactics that Adi himself used. Too bad she wasn't as well versed in the dance steps, as she was about to find out. She might be graceful, and beautiful to watch when she was in motion...but pretty and flashy had no place in the fighting arena. Extra motion, movements that were unnecessary....they were a tell-tale sign of someone who was going to wear themselves out, or get caught in one of their overly-intricate moves.
As she began her forward roll, the spear fell into Adi's hand. He hopped backward, throwing a right snap kick outward...again using projected fighting. He was trying to catch her just as the forward roll presented her back to him with the hard snap kick, projected in the force. If the attack managed to connect...which, with her roll forward, it would be difficult to avoid....it would be as if Adi had thrown a powerful kick into her back.
With his hop back, he would try to keep the same distance between them, maybe even gain a foot or two backward. As long as he stayed away from her now, she wouldn't be able to do much to counter. After all, if she knew Projected Fighting, she would have already been countering with it. Matango had learned well from Dace....if someone knew projected fighting, they would also know the easiest way to protect themselves from it. Her excessive amount of motion showed that she was as confused as most when facing the ability. That meant that as long as he stayed away, Adieumus could pick her to pieces with it.
This duel was about to come to its climax. It had to...Adi was tired of hearing this bitch yap.

*Teo groans, how had she missed that last one, as she rolled she took a hit right to her back, she hadn't managed to roll towards him. And he hopped away. She growls softly at herself. Stupid. She knew better than this. She stares up at him, crouched down low. She watches him quietly a moment. She couldn't afford to take shots like that. she was trained to be fast and agile. Shots like that would wear through her quickly if she wasn't more careful.
She paces off to the side again. It was funny, before it was her working to keep him outside her guard, now he was trying to keep her outside of his. It was a good thing for her at least, that the same was true of her, the best way to keep someone at bay, was to know how to get within the guard they have up. She stopped pacing at a precise calculated moment.*
Well... You wouldn't be able to face two of us will you?
*She lets out one long loud whistle. Moments later the roar of her Rancor was heard in response from somewhere behind him. She wasn't actually calling for help, but she wanted him to think she was. Hoping it would distract him, if even a little bit. She herself draws out her shoto, the orange blade igniting. She uses the force in conjunction with it, throwing her saber, aiming for his left leg. Quickly after she tries to dart in after it. She needed to get inside guard range. Or she would be at the mercy of his range. She knew that much, as when she wields her spear she wants to keep her opponent at range.*

Was she really that daft? He could feel the life energy from the Rancor plenty far enough away. Even if it was on its way back, it would take some time..it was no threat at this moment, and even if it would be later, he could deal with that then. She kept throwing her weapons away, too....it was not the smartest tactic against a fighter like Adi. He hopped upward to get clear of the thrown weapon, and snapped out a quick right projected side kick in the air to keep the woman at bay. Even if it hit the shield, it would do much to stop forward motion, and keep her at this comfortable distance.
Whipping the spear away from him as he landed, so that it would land up in the stands to his right, Adi stared the woman down. He could do this all day...and would, too, if he had to. She was giving a solid fight, and to any other fighter, she would be mopping the floor with them right now. But this wasn't "any other fighter"...
...this was Adieumus Matango. He had a thing about losing, too...He didn't do it too often. In fact, he honestly never really got the hang of it.

*Te'oma glares at him coldly as she came up, shield ready, it was easy to glance the blow off the shield, but again he was out of a melee range as she was pushed back again. The distance now greater to cover. She stares at him, she didn't have time for this. She had more important things to do than play with him. Which was surprising for her, usually she lived for a good fight. There were very few things higher on her priority list. She had to get moving, the search for her mother was still ongoing. She sighs softly, there was no point losing ones cool, that only caused issues in a fight like this.
She eyes him quickly again, she knew that others had been frustrated when she kept them at bay, this was the first time being reversed like that. Much to her talents at reading a people through combat, his was eluding her. Just when she thought she had it figured out, it changed. If she not in a hurry she'd love to stay and admire it longer. As it was rare for her to admire the style of her opponents. He even seemed immune to her charms, which were always apart of her style, that at least told her, he was already pineing for someone.*
Come now, surely your female friend wouldn't want kept waiting. I am a very busy lady and haven't the time to keep playing forever.
Kaei vire helfis etu kajis borqk e sen likt pust..
*Te'oma's lips uttered the Dathomirian words, keeping wary he may be familiar with the language. Drawing on the dark side, her spell would grow. The dark side webs tendrilling towards him from the sides, an attempt to ensnare him. She needed this to come to an end. One way or another.*

As match has been inactive for 3 months or more, it will be judged and subsequently archived. ------------------------------------------------------------------
I really enjoyed reading through this bout as it unfolded and it was thoroughly entertaining. I really wish that this fight could have been finished instead of falling into an inactive state as I feel like you both had a lot tricks left up your sleeves, but as such, in-activeness in the fight makes me judge it now.
Because there was a lot of standoff (really well written) between both combatants, I am going to have to declare this a very narrow Adi victory with the overwhelming reason for the win being granted due to the fact Adi was able to disarm Teo of her staff and land the Eye Poke, and kick to the back. Because of the actual damage inflicted, I was actually able to break what would have otherwise been a draw.
WINNER: ADI!!
