Not a small giggle, but a full-blown belly laugh; clutching your sides as you laugh uncontrollably. Which only angers her further. “The hell is so damn funny?!”
“Of course we're alike. You ARE me. The only difference between us is I was allowed to go live, to go out into the universe and make my own mistakes. While you spent your life trapped in cages.” you tell her, pointing to your scarred face, arms, and stump of a tail as you talk. As you do this, you see her expression change. Turning from anger to a more thoughtful look. “While your Dad and then Towa kept you locked away, you weren't able to go and make your own mistakes. You didn't get the chance to <span class="mu-i">live</span>.”
“I...You, well... May have a point.” she says, raising a hand to her chin as she thinks over what you said.
“How about this? Watch me today. Watch as I fight my opponent, and tell me when you see it.” you tell her, the woman raising a brow at you. “I've learned the difference. In fighting for myself, for the fans or to show off. And fighting to win. Let me show you both.”
“Heh, alright. You've got me curious.” your future counterpart says, holding her left fist out towards you. “Show me what you've got.”
“Heh. This is going to be fun.” you tell her as with a grin you rap her fist with your own. “Feel free to teleport to Ace when they're in the VIP seats, I've got to go get ready.”
“You'd better not lose, not after talking so big.” future you says with a smirk, you smiling back before turning, going into your private chamber. Once the automatic door closes behind you, you sigh out, leaning back against the door. You'd been worried that she would be more confrontational, but with everything going so well, all that's left is to win the fight.
“Are you so sure you can win?” Darth Bane asks, you turning to see he's giving you a small, teasing smirk. “This one's the strongest magic user you've fought since Tanya.”
“She's tough. Much more of a fighter than Tanya was too.” you reply, standing back up and grabbing your armor with telekinesis, pulling it over to you. Looking it over, you see that this one hasn't been scratched or marred yet, taking it and putting it on. “But that will be her downfall. She's not ready for me.”
“Confident, aren't we?” he asks, you pulling your saber to you with telekinesis as well. Looking the weapon over, you press the button to activate it. The crimson blade igniting with a sinister hiss, staring at it a moment before you deactivate the weapon and attach it to the hidden holster under your right pauldron. Then, on a whim pull your heavy greatsword over to you as well, catching it in your right hand. “Taking that unwieldy thing along?”
