[hider=My Hider] I hope you enjoy it! [@Tezcatlipoca][@DLL] [/hider] The force the two men exerted was beyond incredible; Xaviers muscles could be seen quivering and quaking in vicious waves along his skin from the incredible force of both men. Almost without noticing it Xaviers lips twitched for a moment before a razor thin smirk appeared on his lips, just as Xavier had thought the men had fought themselves into a stalemate he could barely hider his excitement. Not only for matching the strength of a man El Reys size but at the possibility of an exceptional battle. Xavier could feel a change in posture beginning in El Reys shoulders and the dark red lights that were Xaviers eyes began to move with fervor to piece together exactly what it was that was coming next. From the yellow eyes within El Reys Jaguar mask Xaviers gaze shifted to his broad shoulders then back to his face; they were angling over him. Next his gaze shifted to their joined hands, snapping between them several times; El Rey was trying to use his size against Xavier. The skin of Xaviers forearms and the backs of his knuckles began to bubble momentarily as Xavier affixed his gaze on El Rey’s eyes once again. In an instant the skin of Xaviers forearms and the back of his hands opened up with four pea sized holes and shot out steel rods from the back of his knuckles and two from each radius and ulna within his forearms. With pinpoint accuracy they would launch and connect with one another to help stabilize Xaviers wrists against El Rey; all in the span of only 2 seconds. By the time El Rey was able to loom his body over Xavier it would be for naught and he would find Xaviers wrists would not budge. The glory of this moment however was short lived as Xavier could once again feel a change in El Rey’s body as it moved against the cloud of energy. It was lower this time; one of his legs was rising and seemed to be leading with the knee on a path that Xavier perceived as his abdomen. A pinpoint impact area would take too long to discern and so Xavier elected for a wide area defense and a single pulsation visibly rippled throughout his abdomen as the density of the muscles and blood within shifted just as the just as the knee hit home. There was a sickly squish of torn flesh and a puff of red mist as Xavier’s abdomen was torn open and his blood vaporized and allowed to suspend itself in the air betwixt them. Immediately after that sound was a dampened metallic [I]pong[/I] as El Reys knee collided with the literal wall that was Xavier’s metallic abdomen; denting that metal there with a nickel sized dent. Within Xavier’s abdomen there is not a single vital organ to speak of and was usually filled with the base form of his metal but it was now solid Dread Metal from pelvis to sternum and allowed him to tank an otherwise deadly blow. Even though his density had changed Xavier still found himself lifted a few inches from the mat and he could feel that El Reys knee was zeroing in for yet another slam and Xaviers abdomen experienced yet another ripple as it’s density was changed once again. Suspended in air with another knee coming his way Xaviers mind never stopped analyzing the next course of action. The trajectory of El Reys first knee was still fresh in his mind and his energy still saturated the air so it was easier to read. Some of the vaporized blood of his wound began to come back together in front of the wound, working with blood that was coming from within the wound to create a piece of metal on his abdomen which held an 80 degree angle that was aimed off to his right. At the same time Xavier’s legs began to make miniscule position changes and his hips began a rotation that was intended to empower another rotation in his abdomen. The knee closed in on Xavier’s metal construct as his body began to descend and as his abdomen caught up with his bodies rotation and Xavier utilized the spin from this to capitalize on the harsh angle of the metal and maximize the deflection which should occur if all things went according. Hopefully redirecting the awesome force of El Reys knees to throw his weaponized limb off to the side for even an instant. Xavier’s legs, hips and abdomen would finish their movements with El Reys knee deflected and move to instantly counter El Rey’s knee. Xavier’s descent of inches finished rapidly and as he landed he did so with his left foot forward and his right foot back; firing his right foot forward with his leg bent so as to send a knee flying back towards El Reys abdomen, though it was aimed midway between El Reys abdomen and right hip which would be positioned closer to Xavier had the deflection been a success. Upon Xaviers chest the circular puddle of blood had begun to bubble and was growing in size not only from the blood that was trickling from the edges of his mask but also because there was blood being siphoned into the mound of blood from beneath the skin.
