Gun Metal Gray Part 6
You draw your sword and shield and charge at the Profligate. He raises a blade and blocks your own. You both trade blows. His is surprisingly adapt at his unusual weapons, blocking your sword in your first few strikes, but after a few seconds, his movements start to get more sluggish as the unwieldy weapons work against him. After blocking one of your strikes, he decides to go on the offensive, and swings at you. You step back, but the blade hits you in the side, bouncing off.
You pull back and swing at Profligate, using your shield as a large knuckle duster. The blow knocks the man back, sending him into the wall. His back, then his head slam into the wall, leaving a large dent in the steel. He drops to his knees, and one of his blades retract so he can push himself up.
Profligate pushes himself off of the wall to get his bearings and glances up at his HUD, showing his own vitals, as well as the status of his suit. There is a sharp prick from the autoinjectors before the pain in his stomach and his head started to fade. He glanced at the battery on his suit, showing it holding back Vigil's considerable strength was taking it's toll.
He considered his options. Besides his lasers, he only had one thing that could get through that armor, but he'd be lucky if his suit lasted two minutes before it drained the battery.
But he looked up at the timer. It looked like he'd only have to last about 30 more seconds.
He glares at you and his blades start vibrating at an extremely high speed.

Reservist withdraws the drill from the now destroyed lock from the safety deposit box. Pulling it open, he looked through the box. Inside was some jewelry, a machine pistol, a large amount of money, and small, leather bound journal. Reservist quickly flipped through the book, confirming the contents, and placed it in the bag, and started shoveling the money on top of it. Another form was coming with the getaway, and they had to be ready to run soon.
…………………………………………………….
"That one goes to you" Profligate says as he pushes himself off of the wall. You don't give him a chance to respond, and lunge at him again. Profligate ducks left to dodge the blade, but you smack his arm. The shield hits his arm, causing a loud crunch and causing him to spin. However, he uses the momentum to attack, swinging his blade. You put up your shield, intent on blocking the blow.
The blade approaches the shield, it hits the shield... and it keeps going. The weapon that was just a few seconds ago was stopped by her shield was slowly, but surely, cutting through it, leaving a thin, 6 inch line going all the way through your shield.
You and Profligate pull back at the same time. You to save your shield from further damage, him to prepare another strike. He keeps swinging, and you return the favor. You strike his side with your sword, which knocks Profligate to the side, but doesn't go through the armor.
At the end of your exchange, you see that his suit has seen better days. There is a large dent in the gut where you hit him with your shield. There are some exposed wires on his right arm that can't be doing him any favors. And the man seems to be breathing heavily, his shoulder rising and falling.
"You know, you are really starting to get on my nerves." He says in an eerily calm voice. You don't say anything during this brief pause in the fighting. Besides the gash in your shield, the tip of your sword is gone, and there's a thin cut on your armor's leg. You haven't been hurt, but one slip-up, and it's over.
[] Grab his arm and try to pin him down. He won't going anywhere.
[] Use magic to attack him.
[] Use Reflect to try to turn his blade against him.
