For reference I'll be using a basic katana coated with ani as my custom weapon. Haven't had a chance to add it to my bio yet.
My Cw and I wear a single katana on my back with a holster on my waist with ninja tools & starting with free form
Noctis would watch his opponents stance taking form in front of him, it seemed the dark haired opponent was versed in close combat to a degree, more so than his usual opponents anyway. With the man's stance completed noctis would notice him bringing his leg forwards in a low sweep while pressing himself forwards. Taking advantage of the opponents positioning with his leg elevated putting himself in a slightly vulnerable position noctis would side step with a slightly diagonal motion towards the opponents leg with his own momentum causing their legs to clash in a shock blocking motion. While doing so noctis would bring his own left hand inside the man's guard, using his elbow to push away the opponents arm from inside the guard and pushing his open palm to the man's chest, coinciding with this noctis leg which clashed with the man's would angle itself behind the opponents thigh, providing a lever motion for noctis to push tripping the man with considerable force possibly cracking his ribs on impact with the ground if it lands cleanly.
Upon the opponent moving his leg blocking the incoming low kick, 17 would use the clash as momentum for repositioning, swiping his left foot back across the ground in a counter clockwise fashion, rotating the left side of his body to follow, as 17 would retract his left hand he'd also grab the opponents left forearm arm [in which he's using to reach in with], pulling it toward him and downward, [using the ball of his right foot as a pivot] while 17 uses his weight to pull the opponent over his right shoulder, then thrusting up into the opponents arm pit socket, attempting to dislocate it as he flips the opponent over onto his back, slamming him on the ground. Then using his right hand to quickly jab the opponent in the face, bouncing his head off the floor before he can attempt to get up.
Noctis would focus his efforts, feeling the clash of their legs as the opponent pushed himself in to a pivot, realising he was in a vulnerable position with his arm extending, Noct would quickly brace himself leaning forwards to give his exposed arm more room to allow him to twist his elbow joint upward to press against the grab attempt while simultaneously slamming his free elbow in to the opponents spine which would knock the air from him forcing his release of the arm allowing noctis to take a step back and adopting his stance again.
Feeling his opponents left arm adjust as it were in 17's grasp. As 17 nearly would make a full turn, he would mimic his opponents right elbow movement leaning forward with his right shoulder, in order to curve his back to avoid being hit, while at the same time letting loose his grip of the opponent with his left hand, curling it into a fist-continuing his movement by pushing off his right foot, now using the ball of the front of his left foot to fully spin. Swinging a raging backfist[with his left hand] across the the left side of opponents face, with enough force to knock teeth out and break the opponents nose. With no hesitation retracting his left arm back maintaining his original rocking stance.
Noctis would note his opponent curving his back to avoid the damage from his elbow, but in the act he would also release noctis arm as intended. Drawing his arm back in to his initial stance noct would follow the opponents moves as he swung wildly with a back fist. Noct would side step rapidly to his right out of extension range of the fist while simultaneously ducking low and grabbing the opponents left leg with noctis right hand, noctis using his left hand to push in to the man's sternum while pulling at the same time at the man's heel with his right hand crashing his foe on to his back, normally the amount of force noctis would apply to this technique would be considerable but he chose to instead simply knock him over without causing any significant damage.
As 17 would spin, he'd notice his opponent side stepping and ducking, dodging the incoming backfist. 17 would immediately pull back his left fist while the opponent would reach for 17's left leg. While his opponent would grab his leg. 17 using the opponents vulnerability, thrusting his right fist down into the top of the opponents skull, while he reached for 17's waistline [with his left hand]. Striking the opponent to the ground, attempting to knock the opponent unconscious.
Noctis would notice the opponent drawing his hand up as he grabbed his heel, with the heel grabbed he could simply push and knock his opponent over before a counter blow would reach him most likely. But he chose to have a little fun at his opponents expense. With the heel grabbed noctis would yank back while standing up and simultaneously slapping with his own free hand striking the opponents open palm strike circling it outwards from his body with the defensive crane protecting his head. The momentum would cause the opponent to topple over to the ground not unlike a tree with his leg now raised comically and his arm being above his own head most likely. Once his opponents leg was yanked and his offensive limb slapped away noct would take a few steps back adopting his stance again.
As the opponent would yank his leg from underneath him as he suddenly began to stand, at the same time trying to slap 17's incoming fist away with a circular motion, 17 would pull his punch in order follow the circular motion of his opponent, using fluid wrist motion to roll his right fist to the inside of the opponents left arm quickly grabbing and gripping on the opponents wrist. While the opponent had 17's left leg in his right hand raising it, 17 would push off his right leg simultaneously pulling on the opponents left arm toward himself in order to straighten is body enough[while in the air] to thrust his right leg into the open chest of the opponent, with enough force to knock the wind out of him while damaging ribs and knocking him back. Then 17 quickly rotates his upper body to the left, placing his left hand onto the surface of the ground as he fell, using it as a spring to quickly push back up into stance.
With his opponent leaping off the ground and yanking noctis arm towards him, Noct would watch as he left the floor preparing to kick at him, reacting quickly noct would step to his left hand side releasing the leg as the man sprung in to a kick that sailed past noct having sidestepped it, Noct would counter attack quickly jamming the tips of his fingers in to the man's thigh as his leg sailed past, aiming for the nerve cluster near the upper thigh muscle causing debilitating damage if successful. Even if the opponent were to counter he would certainly have to release noct and allow both to gain distance which suited noct fine at the moment.
As his opponent would let go of his left ankle, trying to side step while 17 would let loose his grip of the opponents left arm, rotating his upper body to the left as he fell placing his left hand on the ground to catch himself, still continuing the forward thrust motion with his right leg while he would drop, low kicking the opponent on the side of his left knee, attempting to cause him to stumble to the ground, as 17 would quickly spring back up into his original fighting stance.
Noctis would focus as his arm was released and his opponent lowered his body position aiming a kick at noctis lower body, with unnerving grace and speed noctis would place both hands on the man's leg as it moved inward, pushing it down while facilitating his own weight as he pushed himself up twisting and kicking both feet in to the man's chest like a springboard, kicking off his opponents chest after defending the attack he would launch himself 5 meters away in the opposite direction with the force of the kick sending his opponent sprawling to the ground most likely.
As the opponent would push down on 17's right extending leg while his left leg were against the ground and left hand holding his upper body up, 17 knowing he's in a vulnerable position would have only a number of ways to defend himself, forcefully activating his right earring forming a dampening shield cm's away from his upper body while his opponent would be twisting in the air just above him, at the same time 17 would be reaching into his tool pouch thats on his hip with his right hand, quickly swiping out a single kunai, jamming into the leg of the opponent[doesnt state which way you're body would be?] in order to slow his movements, while the opponents feet[attack] would be met by 17's defensive shield. 17 quickly raising himself as he forcefully pushes the opponent off and away from himself, ripping the kunai out of his leg in the process, proceeding into a fighting stance with the kunai remaining in his right, twisting it with his fingers so that the blade is downward.
With his body twisting in the air and his hands pressing down on the opponents formerly offensive limb Noctis would note that the man seems to be forming a barrier of sorts to defend himself, with his hands already placed flat noctis would leave the seal of the flying thunder god on the man's leg just as he was being pushed away, seeing the kunai swiping towards his right leg (My bad) he would raise his leg using the momentum of the push to roll over the attack landing on the ground a few feet away and regaining his composure adopting his stance once more, unable to avoid the full kunai swing a small cut would be on his leg. (5 damage freeform)
As 17 were rising swiping his kunai clipping the opponents leg, while his opponent flipped away to avoid the kunai from digging into his thigh. 17 would quickly toss the kunai while the opponent had his back toward 17 during his flip, aiming at the torso of the man, at the same time 17 would activate his sensory abilities and rush the man attempting to hit him with a lightning covered palm uppercut to his chin as his opponent would land, forcing him into the air with enough force to whip lash his head back knocking him out.
Noctis would watch, as he rolled through the air seeing the man throw the kunai towards his body, as it sailed through the air noct would wait until the perfect moment, taking full advantage of his incredibly high reaction time to clap his hands together perfectly catching the kunai as it was flying at his torso. Gripping the kunai tightly in his right hand he landed leaping in to a side step to avoid the opponents attack and twisting his body towards the opponent the sidestep avoiding the uppercut as his stolen kunai sped forwards in a thrusting motion aimed to pierce the armpit of the arm that attempted to deliver the uppercut causing immense pain and debilitating effects if successful.
Watching as his opponent would catch the kunai and begin to side step upon landing as 17 would thrust his palm forward. Seeing as his opponent is reading his movement quite well, 17 would quickly adjust his approach with explosive reaction and no second thoughts, leaning toward his left as he would be back handing[with his right] the opponent across the face moving enough so that the incoming kunai would miss his armpit, with the edges of the kunai cutting through his shirt leaving slight cut on his shoulder blade, using his left hand to grab the opponents hand thats holding the kunai to restrict further movement before immediately twisting the opponents wrist with intentions of breaking it, forcefully causing him to drop the kunai, at the same time 17 would be using his right arm pushing down on the opponent elbow position making it difficult for the opponent to resist. 17 will also drive his right knee inward into the opponents gut, with force that could break multiple ribs. Followed by a thrust with his shoulder to toss the opponent away and to the ground.
Noctis would watch as his kunai thrust forwards, the man's aim adjusting to intercept him. The situation was perfect for a devastating strike to land. Just before the opponents back hand connected, literal inches from his skin Noctis would teleport while continuing the thrusting motion from before. His new location would be behind the opponent by less than a foot distance, thrusting at his exposed back aimed to strike the heart region for a critical hit that would cause incredibly high damage. Thanks to his teleportation this movement is instantaneous since his attack was already so close previously. Thankful he remembered to place the seal earlier in the battle.
