Bruce backpedaled on his platform while Rajaka approached. The display of the giant's use of pure Ki as a pressure reaffirmed Bruce's momentary excitement, though he kept it hidden well. He kept notice of Zelraine's position while he moved, careful to avoid bringing his right hand back into either of the Order members' line of sight.

Bruce mused, and the small line of sand ceased to fall behind him, both hands back in full view. No obvious change, and Bruce recalled upon another spear at Rajaka's challenge, smirking at him. 
Blup's tiny, robotic voice interrupted Bruce's focus, and he tilted his platform further backward to increase the distance between himself and his target. 
[color=0072bc][b]"Bit difficult to talk at length right now,"[/b][/color] Bruce said, murmuring in an attempt to keep Blup's presence a secret for at least some period of time. [color=0072bc][b]"We've got this under control. If you want to help, try communicating with your other copies back at the base. Tell someone we're alive, and that we'll be back as soon as we can."[/b][/color]
Bruce paused, staring past the oncoming yellow giant into the edges of the pocket dimension that served as their arena. He sighed- the quicker they got the big seething mass disqualified, the sooner they could help the others. 

[color=0072bc][b]"Blup,"[/b][/color] he said, introducing Rajaka to his groundwork of chains, snapping several strands of it upwards into his immediate path. [color=0072bc][b]"If you can manage it without taxing yourself too much, run a quick analysis and tell me what you think our best options are."[/b][/color]

Bruce swerved hard to the left, aiming to trip up Rajaka while giving Blup a little time to work.
