[@Doc Doctor] As previously stated the distance between Gonad and Sky didn't change, meaning that Gonads foot wasn't put between Sky's own. Sky had moved back, resetting the distance to what it had been before Gonad's forward step was taken. This meant that the Barbarian was going to have to extend a bit further than he originally intended in order to try and strike the fae. But, overall, things were never as simple as they seemed on the surface. The punch, itself, was so easily telegraphed that a child would have been able to move out of the way before it actually hit. But with the amount of power that Gonad could pack Sky knew that it wouldn't just be the power of the fist that he'd have to deal with. As it started to come forward, tearing through the atmosphere, Sky realized quickly that the punch would have a lot of other side effects associated with it. It wasn't just concussive force. There was going to be friction, heat, kinetic energy, compressed air, all things he could make of. As the haymaker came forward Sky raised up his left hand, keeping it close to his body, with the palm facing Gonad. The right hand was stretched out behind him, preparing for what was about to come. Energy built up within the palm of his hand, the energy that had started to energize him a few posts ago, so that it gathered just beyond the skin in a floating white disk that was parallel to his hand but many sizes bigger. Gonad's fist wouldn't impact anything, not even that energy, since as the fist came forward Sky was pushed backward and away from the attack. It was like magnetism when two similar charges got close to one another they repelled. But, at the same time, the massive amounts of heat, kinetic force, and compressed air that accompanied the strike would find themselves absorbed into that energy shield. Sky was promptly ejected from the bouncy castle, tearing through the rubber fabric of the sides that usually kept kids from falling out. But as Sky tore through something else would happen, a trap that Sky had been planning the entire time. Thanks to Gonad Sky gathered an abundant source of energy that would have normally taken the fae quite a while to build up, the whole time having to distract the barbarian with the fight at hand in order to try and keep his attention away from it. When did this trap begin? When sky had touched the wall of the bouncy castle after their first exchange. When the energy shield absorbed the thermal energy, kinetic energy, and the energy generated by the compressed air, it converted it all into spiritually energy that was then fed instantaneously into the bouncy castle and the energy that had saturated it. This mean a few things for Gonad. The bouncy castle he was standing in released all of its air, deflating almost instantly while moving almost of its own accord to wrap around the barbarian many times like a cocoon. The energy did more than just move the bouncy castle, it also altered its properties. Sky had to trade blows with Gonad earlier in order to test the barbarians physical composition and see how much power he had. So that he could overcompensate since taking too many blows from Gonad was out of the question. So the energy that had been laced into the bouncy castle amplified the rubber nature of the structure itself so that as it wrapped around him Gonad wouldn't be able to rip it through his strength or energy alone. Raw force wouldn't tear apart the new bouncy prison that would be working to cocoon the barbarian. Now for the last bit. The bouncy castle had removed all of its air, but this meant more than just simply deflating its structure so that it could be used to wrap around the barbarians body. This almost meant that the air within its walls was also removed, creating a vacuum that had no oxygen within it. While the bouncy castle quickly moved to constrict and completely cover Gonad all other traces of oxygen were removed as well so that while he was being cocooned he would not be able to breathe and no oxygen would get past the rubber construct as it moved to complete its task. Meaning that if Gonad didn't find a way out he was going to suffocate completely. So where did this leave Sky? He had crashed through a house, but stopped himself with that right hand that had been extended behind his form acting as propulsion via expended energy to slow the speed at which he traveled. Luckily no one was home and he was still one acre away from his opponent and the bouncy castle that had done what it was intended to do. As long as Sky was on the outside he was making sure that the construct held. Meaning that as Gonad would be fighting from within to get out Sky would be fighting his efforts from the outside to keep him in. Should it succeed he didn't know if he was going to kill Gonad, perhaps let him fall unconscious and leave, he was trying to remember his orders on the matter.
