>>5971297As he stands there, raising his hands back into his fighting stance, you ponder your next move. You could always try and force the ring out, expelling your energy out in all directions. But he could probably get you in that moment while your Energy Body's down, and if you take some of his hits. So, instead, you decide to try something else. He's not the only one who can use unseen tricks.
“If you won't come to me, then I'll take the initiative!” you shout, kicking off the ground towards him. Left arm forward, right back you then use your telekinesis, grabbing his right arm. Hit's eyes widen as he feels the contact, but before he can react further you jerk his arm towards his left side, pinning his arm to his chest.
“What?!” he exclaims, looking down as his arm moves against his will. Leaving him wide open, you crossing the rest of the distance and slamming your right fist square into his face. “Guuaaaaah!!”
Your heavy blow sends him flying back, Hit soaring all the way to the far edge of the arena before flipping backwards, landing right on the edge with his right foot. But you're already closing in, once again using your telekinesis to grab his ankle. Jerking his foot out from underneath him, causing the assassin to fall as you close in and swing. However, right at the last moment, when your right would have made contact with his face, he vanishes. For a split second his energy's gone, reappearing behind you.
“HAAAA!” you shout, firing a left back kick towards his energy. Only for Hit to vanish again, reappearing right in front of you, driving his single point punch right into the softer bone above your teeth and below your nose. Snapping your head back and stealing your balance, causing you to waver on the edge of the ring. Hit follows up his strike with a second, then a third and a fourth, hitting you in the left temple, the throat and left temple again in rapid succession. The force of which, even through your Energy Body rocks you, causing you to completely lose your balance and fall. Except your upper body is off the arena! “DAMMIT!”
With sheer will you twist your upper body, throwing out your right and grabbing Hit with your telekinesis. Using your grip on him, on pulling him down towards you to avoid falling off. He notices this immediately, using that technique to vanish once more. But you bought yourself all the time you needed, catching yourself with your flight and rising up away from the ground as he reappears a few yards back.
“So, you possess telekinesis as well? This is starting to prove troublesome.” he says, returning to his fighting stance. “I'm going to have to end this quickly.”
