Loki fell to the ground hard, watching Neko zig-zag like some spice hyped Arrakis Freman in a crazed effort to cross the sands and kill a Harrokonnen soldier, without alerting the worm less than a meter away. He watched as his world seemed to spin on more axises than there where dimensions in string Theory; weather they be spacial or temporal. "This must be what its like after drinking the water of life...where is my stitch mate?" he whispered to himself. He continued watching Neko, and as he moved along the floor, Loki's equilibrium returned and his head seemed to find its center. By the time Neko was behind him, Loki's world view was normal and he was able to turn in time to present his blade. Loki saw the glint of light reflected perfectly from source to eye, and he fought the urge to seek the source of the sourceless light. Loki cut up, hoping his blade would make contact with Neko as Neko's knee and hand made contact with him.

Neko made impact on his opponent before pulling away abruptly with the smell of blood in the air and he smiled, raising a hand and lightly touching his neck where crimson liquid spilled forth. "Good job!" he laughed, "If I hadn't pulled away, I could be dead!" it was rather odd that he was laughing at such a time as this, but nonetheles he was. Neko pulled himself close to the ground, his kneck with a clear slice from just behind the bottom of his ear to his shoulder, a pretty nasty cut. His tail swished back and forth as he prepared to move, obviously back on the defense- he'd wait for a break in his opponent's fighting style before he made another move to attack.

"Have you ever heard of the Spartans?" Loki asked, bemused at Neko, "Because you act an awful lot like one of them." Loki's view of Neko shifted once again, this time the ears and tail vanished, and Neko was dressed in a bright red tunic and cape. Loki then jumped to his feet. falling into a combat stance, his sword waved back and forth in the air. Loki felt the high of adrenaline and the cocktail of other hormones following the blood he drew. Looking at the crimson color on the tip of the blade, he felt a twinge of pride. Loki's view shifted to Neko, who stood poised and ready for attack. Loki thought for a second, then shrugged. he breathed deeply and then charged, his blade poised in front of him like a pike. He winced slightly as he charged, feeling the burn in his legs and lungs, but he kept up the charge regardless.

Neko watched the blade come and luck seemed to be on his side, the broadside of the sword facing up made it quite simpler to dodge. He jumped, his feet landing on the blade to send it down and out of the way as his blood stained his shirt, he should probably clean that before he saw Duemi again, otherwise there'd be alot of questions. "Heard a bit about them, but not enough to distinguish them... why do you say so?" he brought a fist towards Loki's face, intending for his knuckles to make contact against his opponent's nose.

Loki's blade was forced out of his hand as Neko's weight bared down on the blade. it hit the ground with a solid pang. in his shock at being disarmed, he wasn't able to react in time to bring his arms up in the combat techniques had been trained in in case of boarding. his face pointed towards the the floor, Neko's fist contacted his forehead, sending him to the floor with his world spinning and shifting colors like a star in its death throes .

Neko stepped off of the sword and picked it up, looking at it's craftsmanship for a few moments, waiting for Loki to stand up, "You okay?" he asked, a laugh in his voice as he placed the weapon gently on the floor, not wanting to scratch it- but he wasn't going to use someone's own weapon against them, nor was he gonna hand it over. His green eyes watched his opponent worriedly, his ears back timidly and his tail drooping sadly. Hurting people meaninglessly wasn't exactly needed and it was just a battle, he had nothing against this person, and being the pathetically nice person he was- he felt kinda bad.

Loki stood, shaking slightly on his feet as his head spun. "I'm fine...my first time in combat, my Fighter got clipped and i spun around for hours because my left thruster was jammed and the right one was dead. and the initial impact was as jarring as anything." he Paused for a moment, "They taught us swordsmanship in Academy, though we never used it outside of wager duels." he smiled, "I never lost one." Loki examined Neko. the man was coy and smiling and standing over his blade. he grounded his teeth momentarily, then drooped into a combat stance and placed his arms in a defensive position. Loki then used a light gesture of the hand to indicate he was ready for an attack.

"Well I'm thinking you might just lose one now... just perhaps." Neko smirked as he clenched his fists as he started a head on charge, last minute he swerved off to the right, using that force and pushing back towards Loki, his body twisting so his fist would come right at Loki's jaw with a shattering force. His eyes bright green as he carried out his attack, sure he was a generally good person, and he felt bad whenever he hurt somone, but that didn't mean that he didn't actually hurt people from time to time.

Loki watched Neko's charge, and then swerve. Loki turned to allow his eyes to remain on his felinesque opponent. Loki imagined himself back in the cockpit, watching a Servaeri fighter charge him when out of ammunition, Loki remembered the tactic well and knew how to counter it: a game of chicken. As Neko approached, Loki waited, appearing dazed, and allowing his spinning world to aid in the ruse. as Neko neared his position, he waited still. at the last possible second, Loki pivoted on his left foot, allowing him to bring his right (and rear) foot to the front, leaning back slightly he rapidly fired off a side kick at Neko's Gut.

In a rather graceless move, Neko's arms moved in front of him and separated Loki's foot from reaching his stomach and though he'd managed to block the attack- he did happen to lose his balance due to the improper footing and other things of the such and so he came and had a little face-meet-floor moment, his hands didn't help with his landing, though, due to the fact that they seemed to have a death grip on Loki's ankle. If Neko was going to fall- he was taking his opponent with him!

Loki fell fast, but was able to use is left arm to prevent a catastrophic impact. He tried to wiggle his foot lose, tying to retain his stance and use his advantage to its maximum. He failed epically. Neko's fall worked to contain Loki's left leg once they where on the ground, so Loki bent his right knee, dragging himself up to Neko and then threw his arms around Neko's neck, trying to get him into a head lock. He smiled, wondering how far a head Neko had been thinking.

Neko made a stream of choking noises, various panicked profanities streamed through his mind, his hands scrambling towards Loki. Headlocks weren't good, huh? His face already turned pink from the stopped up blood in his face and his vision blurred, he rolled his weight to get out from underneath his opponent or atleast change the situatuon a bit. His legs tucked underneath him before his feet but before he could do much, there was a rapid change. Neko's body seemed to shrink and there was a panicked yowl as now... of all things, a calico tomcat in Neko's place. His ears pressed back against his skull as he squirmed about, claws unsheathed as he tried to get free.
From the stands, a single spectator seemed to laugh, clapping his hands as his green eyes looked on, his hair the same swirling calico hue as Neko's and even more, he had feline ears and a tail. He resembled the boy very much, to be honest. He was dressed in a long black trenchcoat that covered his body as he was seated, like the average spectator and he muttered tomething to himself between his chuckling. This was quite the interesting battle.

Loki stood dazed for a moment, than came to his sense. after seeing his master change from dragon to human, this was less odd than it should have been. charging from the cat, he ran to his blade, glenting in the still sourceless light. Loki made a note to find the source later. Bending down in his run, he grabbed his blade and then made a quick, 180 degree turn and placed the blade in the sheath at his side. he placed his arms up and readied them for defense. he eyed the odd cat, his claws out and ready for a fight, this was going to be very interesting.

Neko moved with animal speed, of course- because he was a cat at the current moment. His green eyes watched his opponent, 'Duemi was right... I DID turn into a cat again...' he thought, as he made way towards Loki, his claws unsheathed which meant he could tear at Loki's ankles pretty badly... but not really much worse... he gave a little animal sigh as he shook his head, 'Okay... so I'm a cat... but there's not much to do about it, huh? Change back... NOW!' he thought, preparing to attack in his human form but no change came.
Perth laughed from where he sat in the stands, "So they WERE right!" He exclaimed, intently watching the battle, awaiting where this would all go, because obviously Neko wasn't planning on becoming feline in the middle of the battle.
Neko heard the stranger and would have looked to see who it was and try to figure out what they were talking about... but then again... he didn't want to be STEPPED ON! He wasn't very happy at this moment in time.

Loki cocked his head side ways as the cat seemed to try to force its self into doing something...loki assumed trying to return to human form. Loki found no need to suppress the laugh he expected, instead he felt a twinge of sympathy and a hue of sorrow. they both wanted a fair fight, and Loki was fully aware he could kill Neko right now by simply kicking him, or coming down hard with his blade. righting his head, Loki looked for a judge or a magic user..someone who could change Neko back to human so they could continue a fair fight.
