Lop is hopping around the Death Battle bunny trial[]
Lop
o Wiz: Long Long Ago in a galaxy Far Far Away, the planet Tao had been taken over by the Empire. In order to maintain peace, the citizens have all pledged their loyalty, or suffer the consequences.
o Boomstick: During the Imperial Era, a rabbit-like alien named Lop was brought to Tao to work as a slave for the Galactic Empire. Although she was able to escape, she lost her parents in the process, leaving her an orphan. Not too surprising there since some of Star Wars greatest heroes happen to be orphans.
o Wiz: For the next few years, the Lepi Lop and her droid companion TD-4 scavenged through the streets of Tao, getting by through a life of petty crime.
Lop and her droid TD-4
o Boomstick: Until she scored the coolest foster dad in the friggin' universe: a freaking yakuza crime lord.
o Wiz: Yasaburō was a well known and respected man who lived on Tao during the Imperial Era, and the leader of a powerful organization. While out shopping with his bouncing young daughter Ochō at a market one day, they saw the young Lepi attempting to steal fruit, and remind her that stealing is wrong.
o Boomstick: After finding out that Lop was an orphan thanks to the Empire, Ochō invited the Lepi to join their family, insisting that she could tell by looking at her that Lop was a good kid. Not wanting to ruin his image as an honorable man, Yasaburō reluctantly agreed to let Lop join their family. Also how can you say those cute little eyes.
o Wiz: After being guilted by his daughter into adopting Lop, Yasaburō promised to clean Lop up, keep her well-fed, and give her a second chance at a family. From that point on Lop’s life as a slave was over, and her life as a privileged princess had begun.
Lop's new family
o Boomstick: This is kind of like a rabbit Cinderella story. But unlike Cindy’s stepsisters, Lop and Ochō quickly came to regard each other as sisters, doing everything most sisters would do together. Staying up late talking about boys, sneaking out to explore the planet against their father’s wishes, and braiding their hair and fur
o Wiz: How do you know what girls do in their spare time?
o Boomstick: Jocelyn of course, who did you expect, Mama Boomstick
o Wiz: Overtime, Yasaburō eventually welcomed Lop as his daughter, and she began referring to him as her own father. As time went on, the three began to grow close to each other as Yasaburō began training his daughters in the art of combat and swordsmanship, hoping that one of them would take over leadership of his organization.
o Boomstick: Well the future is female after all. But like all good times in the Star Wars universe, they never last forever.
o Wiz: Seven years after joining the Yasaburō clan, Yasaburo began to launch a rebellious campaign against the newly established Galactic Empire for their freedom. Lop, now a grown adult, could only watch in horror as she saw Yasaburō and Ochō in a heated argument, trying her best to calm the situation. On one hand, Yasaburō claimed the Empire was exploiting the planet's resources too much while becoming a threatening military presence and had to be stopped.
o Boomstick: On the other hand, Ochō, who had gone from an innocent Snow White to a ruthless Namaari, claimed that Yasaburō failed to see the growth and prosperity the Empire could bring should they side with the Empire.
o Wiz: Although both sides tried to argue why their opinion was better, the other always had a counter attack to their verbal attack. Only Lop could serve as the middle ground, trying the ease the tension between her adoptive family. The standoff ends as Imperial troops arrived on scene and the clan dispersed.
Quarrel between sister and father
o Boomstick: While riding into the city that evening on their hovercraft, which looks cool as hell, Lop tried to reconnect with her sister, claiming that her only desire was to see Ochō and their father stop fighting, for them to be a family again and protect Tao for she viewed it as her only home.
o Wiz: Ochō also agreed that Tao was her home as well, and explained that that is the reason why she is willing to keep the family together by surviving alongside the Empire: "for the sake of our future."
o Boomstick: Some future. It was soon revealed that the Empire was well informed of Yasaburo's plans by Ochō who has decided to pledge her undying loyalty to them. TRAITOR!!!
o Wiz: Despite Lop's plead for Ochō to not turn against their father, Ochō cut off her hair braid to signify her breaking all allegiance with her father. Upset and Shocked by her sisters betrayal, Lop returned home seeking her father’s help, even after discovering that most of the clan members have deserted him
o Boomstick: So if Yasaburo's has no biological heir and no clan to follow him, what does that make him now?
o Wiz: A broken man who’s lost everything, but a proud father unwilling to give up.
o Boomstick: I was going to say a homeless Japanese Godfather, but that works too.
o Wiz: After leading Lop to a ceremonial room, Yasaburo apologized to her if he seemed to have favored Ochō as a daughter over her through the years. There, Yasaburō summons visions through a strange mystical energy, showing Lop the clan's history through glyphs depicting a warrior trusting and bestowing upon the Yasaburō clan a powerful sword and teaching them how to wield it.
Lop's earned the right of a new weapon
o Boomstick: And this wasn’t just any old warrior, this was a Jedi, warrior monks trained in the art of peacekeeping through combat and meditation.
o Wiz: Yeah, we’ll go with that.
o Boomstick: Hundreds of years ago, a Jedi had come to Tao, settled on the planet and eventual died there. But before he died, the Jedi encountered an ancestor of the Yasaburō clan to whom he entrusted his lightsaber and trained in lightsaber combat.
o Wiz: Thereafter, the lightsaber became a Yasaburō family heirloom, being passed down through the generations of the Yasaburō family. Each family leader taught their successor sword combat and passed the blade on as inheritance, representing the bond between parent and child.
o Boomstick: And that wasn’t just some sword, this was a lightsaber, an energy sword which can cut through basically anything with enough... "force". Get it
Sister vs Sister
o Wiz: : Yes...ugh…there are seven forms of lightsaber combat known to the Jedi, but it is unknown which one Lop had mastered or knows about. But if anything, she probably knows about Form III, Soresu.
o Boomstick: Which is all about defense, and waiting for your opponent to make a mistake to land a finishing blow.
o Wiz: And this mystical energy was the Force, an energy that exists almost everywhere. Jedi can tap into the Force to manipulate the world around them.
o Boomstick: Like throwin' stuff around with telekinesis, everything from pulling down an airship, to crushing someone else's organs. She can use these powers to sense another sentient being's emotions, impending danger, and the presence of other light or dark side Force-users.
o Wiz: Yasaburo then bestows the lightsaber to Lop, saying she is worthy by showing her strong familial bond even if she is not related by blood.
o Boomstick: With the few remaining followers he had, Yasaburo headed to the Imperial Base camp to convince his bouncing baby girl to come home
o Wiz: After some time waiting, Lop heard an explosion at the Imperial base and saw what looked like a fight between her clan and the Empire.
o Boomstick: Fearing her dad’s safety, Lop and her droid buddy mounted a speeder and rushed to the base. When she got there, she saw the her farther had been blinded and her sister was far too gone, leaving her no choice but to fight her own sister. Why does feel like a female anime version of Anakin and Obi-Wan’s first confrontation.
o Wiz: Even as a runaway slave, Lop is very nimble and agile, able to leap between walls of buildings to ascend and to jump down from great heights without getting hurt.
Lop's useful tools
o Boomstick: She is also a skilled pilot of speeders and hovercrafts, swift enough to dodge laser blast and sword strike, and avoided getting caught by the empire years after escaping slavery. Wow these Imperial guys really need to get into shape. If a rabbit girl could elude them for years, I bet I could too.
o Wiz: So, what you are saying is that we need to throw your ass in jail. Yeah I’m in.
o Boomstick: That’s not what I meant and you know it.
o Wiz: As a Force-sensitive being, Lop is capable of using telekinesis. She used this power to summon her father's dagger to her side while fighting Ochō. She became skilled with a lightsaber, even if only had it for less than a day, presuming that she had to have had some form of training in the past.
o Boomstick: Like similar Jedi and other ancient Japanese households, Lop is believed to have been trained in expert hand-to-hand combatant and swordsmanship, which made her an ideal candidate to be bestowed the family sword. Lucky Rabbit, all I got from my dad was a black eye and a bunch of broken dreams
o Wiz: She also wears a set of side glasses which could pull up information or show her surroundings in the infrared spectrum, and wielded an umbrella that she could use to glide a short distance with. Not to mention her trust droid TD-4 who serves as both her travel companion and AI computer.
o Boomstick: Because what's a Jedi without their handy dandy droid. During their fight, Ochō became enraged when she saw that Lop had inherited the family lightsaber.
Lop's lightsaber
o Wiz: Yasaburō tried to explain to her that he passed it to his other daughter because of his belief that, when it comes to inheritance, there are more important things than blood. Angered at seeing Lop inheriting the family's sword over herself, Ochō fights a reluctant Lop and damaged TD-4 in the process.
o Boomstick: This pissed Lop enough to awaken the Force within her, and she is able to overpower Ochō by using Force telekinesis to grab her father's weapon and slash an X across Ochō's chest with the family lightsaber simultaneously. Ochō is saved from falling off the dock by an Imperial starship, and she is seen glaring at Lop as the ship helps her escape.
Victorious?
o Wiz: Though she has had limited training in way of the Jedi and her past has left her with some emotional scar, Lop has surpassed her limitation and become a noble Jedi-in-training.
o Boomstick: Vowing to one day find her sister and bring her home so that they be a “proper family
o Lop: It's just that. We are family. I want us to all stop fighting
What’s up Miyamoto Usagi, you are on Death Battle[]
Usagi Yojimbo
o Wiz: The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has had a lot, otherwise certain memorable characters in the franchise.
o Boomstick: Ranging from allies like Splinter, April O'Neil, Leatherhead, and Casey Jones to villains like Krang, Rocksteady, Bebop, Fishface, and even the Shredder.
o Wiz: But there is one character who despite being a powerful ally to the turtles that even had his own franchise, is the samurai rabbit warrior named Usagi Yojimbo, also sometimes known as Miyamoto Usagi.
https://youtu.be/roV4dIuhSNk?si=8e8wC3t6ZcJelgt-
o Boomstick: He’s like a combination of Bugs Bunny and Samurai Jack, which is a lot more terrifying when I say it out loud
o Wiz: Growing in a small village of the Northern Province, under the wing of his father, Magistrate Miyamoto, Usagi's life was told very little before he began training.
A young Usagi wondering his village
o Boomstick: During his training with dear old dad, he picked up on a few fighting styles. Not too many, just Bajutsu, the art of horseback; Bujitsu, military strategy; Iaijutsu, the sword-based quick draw; Tantojutsu, knife fighting; Ninjutsu, bein' sneaky; Kyujutsu, which is archery; and, well, Jujutsu and Karate Do, which are both forms of unarmed combat. God! How many more jutsus do you think he can fit in his brain? I didn't even know there were that many.
o Wiz: At least one more: Kenjutsu, the art of Japanese sword fighting. After all, what's a samurai without a katana at his side?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DW4jMWugvq8
o Boomstick: Dead, that's what. In order to keep living, he had to get really good with swingin' that sword.
o Wiz: Usagi’s weapon of choice is the Daisho, duel set sword consisting of a Katana and a Wakizashi, a smaller version of the katana, about 12 and 24 in in length. At some point, Miyamoto Usagi eventually became one of the best bodyguards of Lord Mifune, the current leader of his village.
o Boomstick: But that stable career was destroyed when a villainous rival lord, snake master Lord Hikiji, sent ninja to assassinate the Mifune family. In the assault, Mifune's wife and son were murdered, and Lord Mifune declared war on his rival in revenge. Kind of reminds me of Scorpion and what happened to his family.
o Wiz: Of course that's who'd you think of at a time like this. After Years of Violences and Bloodshed, the war finally looked like it was coming to an end. However, everything changed when Usagi’s friend and one of Lord Mifune’s commanders, Buichi Toda, betrayed them and led them into an ambush set by Hikiji.
https://youtu.be/CnN6KoW84DU?si=TJq6EAFLb5o-AbIu
o Boomstick: That’s ninjas for you. Unless they are green and have a shell, can’t be trusted, not a one of them.
o Wiz: With Lord Mifune dead and the enemy closing in on him, Usagi performed his final noble duty as warrior, which was to escape with his lord's head to prevent the enemy from displaying it. Usagi flees into the forest, buried Lord Mifune's head, and evaded the pursuit of Hikiji's forces.
Past deaths and failures
o Boomstick: By saving Lord Mifune's head from desecration, Usagi felt he had atoned for the disgrace of losing the battle. These Ninja and Samurai traditions are weird, but at least the weapons are cool though.
o Wiz: Now a ronin, Usagi traveled the backroads of the region, making a living as a yojimbo or bounty hunter for hire. Several years later, Usagi and his friend Gennosuke eventually went to compete in the Battle Nexus Tournament.
https://youtu.be/KFKS1csaFPg?si=FeXlAVyeRfAMKl78
o Boomstick: It’s a competition held every three years where the mightiest warriors from numerous galaxies come together and battle to become the champion of the multiverse. Sign me up that shit.
o Wiz: In the Hall of Champions, Usagi witnessed Leonardo, who was attending the Tournament along with his brothers for the first time, come under attack by the same assassins he had encountered years ago and came to his aid. During this fight, Usagi and Leo formed a friendship which would endure even when they were pitted against each other in the arena.
Befriending Leonardo
o Boomstick: Even after Leonardo was poised and Splinter was framed for crimes against the Daimyo, Usagi went above and beyond to aid the turtle in saving their brother and clearing Splinter’s name.
o Wiz: Since that fateful day, Usagi and his gambling friend Rhino have aided the turtles in various battles across time and space, and even were invited to attend the wedding of their friends, April and Casey.
o Boomstick: A wedding filled with ninjas, mutants, and supernatural god people. This was definitely one for the mutant scrapbook, even if it did get interrupted by Shredder.
https://youtu.be/uXLMH3I7Ok8?si=ovepihBtfjUEEe6e
o Wiz: Usagi was trained in the art of bujutsu, or the art of war, by the nonconformist martial artist Katsuichi and uses an unorthodox style of swordsmanship that defies the conventional techniques of the more mainstream kenjutsu dojos.
o Boomstick: But who cares if Usagi’s fighting style is true or fiction. As long as he can kick some serious but with that sword of his, it’s all worth it.
o Wiz: Usagi was also trained in the ways of the Tengu, a type of mischievous supernatural being from Japanese folklore, who are legendary for their sword skills
Fighting of enemy ninjas
o Boomstick: Usagi is also a veteran of the Age of Wars and has actual battle experience outside of fighting in formal duels. From competing in interdimensional tournaments to fighting supernatural creatures, he’s not too picky on what battles he fights.
o Wiz: Because of his training and unconventional sword style, Usagi often staggers his opponents with his techniques that they've never encountered in their dojos. Usagi's style exploits the rigidity of the traditional schools by being unpredictable and attacking with whatever technique will work in a fight rather than what's restricted by a certain style with certain methods.
o Boomstick: You could say he was really "hopping” the floors with his opponents. Get it? "hop-ing"? Hopping like a…
https://youtu.be/cjJrspJ7NbY?si=9qGOH46siX_SiQiB
o Wiz: Yes, we get it, it was a good pun, Jesus!
o Boomstick: Usagi's skill is so great that on many occasions, because of his non-aggressive nature, he has often defeated many opponents without even drawing his sword from its scabbard, even when his enemies had. Man, and I thought Samurai Jack was the greatest swordsman even seen on DB, wait til’ he meets his guy, or rabbit.
o Wiz: On the rare occasion where Usagi found himself without his swords, he's been able to defeat his enemies using unconventional weapons, such as a seaweed pole, a stick, or even a fish.
Traveling through a snowy mountain
o Boomstick: Uh, how does that work. The last time I saw someone use a fish for a weapon, he ended up getting punched in the face by a centaur.
o Wiz: When he is not taking up arms against his opponents, Usagi has been shown to be well-learned in the arts of calligraphy, haiku poetry, flower arranging and the tea ceremony.
o Boomstick: Boring, let’s get back to whole killing people stuff.
https://youtu.be/x9poEZQSUlU?si=x1WlRbTxTTLR61mM
o Wiz: As a samurai, Usagi was not only expected to be highly skilled in martial arts but to be deeply cultured in the refined arts of Japanese society. During his journeys, Usagi has also learned other art forms and cultural aspects of his homeland, such a pottery, drum making, sushi, soy sauce brewing, music and painting.
o Boomstick: Enough about paintings and music, Wiz. Let's get back to the rabbit!
o Wiz: Usagi's awareness is so sharp that he can acutely sense danger, even when an assassin once tried to kill him in his sleep.
https://youtu.be/HBKEtgZ6rDQ?si=ztofhSTodjIqroYZ
o Boomstick: Back to the good stuff. On many occasions, Usagi's has had to resourcefully throw his katana or wakizashi to slay an enemy.
o Wiz: He’s equaled Leonardo in combat, fought off multiple ninja assassins by himself, and aided the Turtles and Splinter in their fight against their most dangerous enemy yet, Ultimate Drakko, a creature fused between a warrior ninja and an alien dragon.
A "friendly" sparring match
o Boomstick: What's so scary about those guys…( A picture of Ultimate Drakko is shown)… Whoa Holy Mother of Jesus!
o Wiz: You were saying?
o Boomstick: Yeah, right, I got it
o Wiz: And let’s not forget, he can have his downsides. It can take him a while to adjust to a new environment, especially when he came to visit the turtle in New York City for the first time.
o Boomstick: He didn’t know what an escalator was, or even what a hot dog even tastes like, since he lives in a complexly different world than theirs.
o Wiz: Still though, he can prove as a reliable ally to help out anyway he can, even when taking down the Demon Jei and Ultimate Drako.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybmQ53hAemk
o Boomstick: Despite the intensity of Usagi's training and his high level of skill, like many sword styles, he is at a disadvantage when it comes to fighting spears.
o Wiz: This weakness has often put him on the defensive against his mortal enemy Jei, and it's probably thanks to Usagi's unorthodox style that he's managed to adapt to fighting against Jei and survive where other sword experts have perished.
Off to his next adventure
o Boomstick: But even with his past failures and vulnerable weakness, Usagi has done more than enough to redeem himself and will continue to travel the world as a lone warrior who’s heart is always in the right place.
https://youtu.be/cXq9JuFX7j0?si=3tss887VTc4WA6Vr
o Wiz: So, if you ever find yourself at the end of Usagi’s blade, don't bother fighting back. You'll only end up with your face in the mud.
o Leonardo: I can’t ask you to come with me, Usagi.
o Usagi: You do not have to ask, my brother. I am going with you. As you say, what are friends for?
Pre-Fight:[]
Wiz: all right the combatants are set, lets end this debate once and for all.
Boomstick: It's time for a DEATH BATTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fight:[]
Battle Nexus
At the battle nexus forest, Lop is walking and cutting her way through the forest as looks for any potential threats. When she arrives at a trial, she then stops and looks around sensing a presence. Up in a tree, Usagi is meditating on a tree branch. He looks down and sees the young female rabbit walking on the trail with a flying robot and jumps down to confront her.
Usagi: You! Where are you going?
Lop: To the Battle Nexus championship. I’ve already defeated my last opponent and I’m headed to the main building.
Usagi: You must be a new arrival, for you still have one more opponent to fight before you move on to the next round. And that would be me.
Usagi then pulls out his swords and get into a fighting stance.
Lop: Well, if that’s the case, then so be it.
Lop then pulls out and ignites her lightsaber as TD-4 retreats to safety.
Both fighters charge at each other, aiming their weapons' at one another. As Lop tries to make her first move, Usagi leaps over her, lands on his feet and tries to cut his opponent from behind him; but the latter blocks it with her lightsaber. Lop then shoves him back and lunges at him for several strikes, but Usagi blocks them all. But she the does a spin kick in the chest to knock him back. Lop then jumps into the air to dive down right at Usagi, but he still blocks it.
Usagi: A Sword that glows, that's a first. But no matter, it's no different than what Leonardo uses.
Lop: It's called a lightsaber my friend. Well then, can your friend Leonardo do this?
Lop does a backflip that makes her land away from Usagi before putting up her hand and uses the force to push Usagi away from her and slam into a tree. Spotting some branches that fell out of the tree, Usagi grabs them and slices the branches to make them sharper with his sword. He then leaps into the air with the flying branches and kicks them at Lop. But Lop uses the force to stop the branches dead in their tracks and makes them fall to the ground.
Usagi: How did you do that?
Lop: That was called the force. Even I still don't know how it works. But it's still effective.
The Lepi Jedi pushes Usagi with another force push as the rabbit samurai rolls on the ground before standing up, still in awe of what just happened. Usagi then leaps to the side to dodge a stab to the face by Lop and her lightsaber. Lop the uses the force to lift up a large rock and throw it at Usagi. Usagi dodges the attack and proceeds to slash Lop's chest, before drop kicking her away. The Lepi Jedi exams her wound with her side glasses and sees that wound isn't that deep, and quickly turn around and look at the rabbit samurai with an angered face. They both draw their weapons and charge at each other again, proceeding in a swordfight.
Usagi: You may be young, but you have the skills of a true warrior.
Lop: Uh Thanks, I guess
Both the rabbit samurai and the Lepi Jedi get into a blade to blade struggle. Lop keeps pressing on with all her might, but Usagi kicks her to the floor and process to stab Lop in the stomach. The Lepi Jedi stands up and jumps out of the way as rabbit samurai lands his sword into the ground, getting it stuck in the process. As he struggles to pull it out, Lop takes the opportunity to slash him in the back with her lightsaber. Usagi falls to the ground, only to turn around and see Lop diving in the air heading right at him with her lightsaber. Usagi rolls on his back as he prepares to kick the Lepi Jedi in the gut. His feet make contact before Lop's lightsaber does and Lop is sent flying backwards, before she uses her umbrella to glide her away to the top of a tree branch . She activates her glasses to analysis her opponent and TD-4 floats next to her
Lop: I'll keep him distracted and scan for any information. You lay low and let me know what you find out about him.
TD-4 beeps and then flies off, right when Usagi pulls out his other sword and thrust it at the branch Lop is standing on, slicing it in half and making her fall. Luckily, she opens her umbrella and floats to the ground safely. She turns around and activates her lightsaber just in time to see Usagi leap over her and land on the ground to pick up his fallen blade.
Usagi: If you really want to learn more about you opponent, then you must face him in battle
Lop: With Pleasure.
The two engage in a sword fight with their blades, both blocking each others slashes and countering the latters and so on. The then starts loping allow over the field and off the trees, bounding at each other as their blades clash. As Lop land on the ground ready to jump out of the way, Usagi rushes forward and kicks her hand with his foot, causing the Lepi Jedi to accidentally drop her weapon.
Usagi: You fought well, but not good enough.
Usagi tries to run Lop through with his Daito, but his opponent was just as quick on her feet as he was and by leaping into the air. This causes Usagi's Daito to get stuck in a tree and allow Lop to land on top of the Rabbit Samurai's blade.
Lop: Not so fast buck tooth.
But then the Rabbit warrior tries to use his Shoto to stab her in the stomach, but Lop uses the force to pull her lightsaber back to her and stops his attack with her weapon. She then gives the rabbit a drop kick to his face, knocking him back and leaving him momentarily dizzy. As Usagi comes to his senses he sees Lop ignite her lightsaber, and ushers Usagi to attacker her. Unintimidated, Usagi rushes towards and swings his Daito at her, who effortlessly catches the attack mid-air with the Force, confusing Usagi.
Usagi: What?
Lop: Surprised, so am I.
He tries his luck with a few more swipes, only to be pushed away by Lop using her force powers into a nearby tree with such force that it causes the tree branches on the tree to fall around him. After he notices several fallen branches he could use to his advantage, Usagi threw the branches in the air and kicks four of them towards the Lepi Jedi. Lop charges forward and slashes the incoming projectiles with her lightsaber, creating even more smaller but sharper branches as a result. She then uses the Force to lift up the branches and hurl them at Usagi who effortlessly dodges the incoming attacks or slices them with his swords. As the wood chips fall to the ground as Usagi spins is blades before taking a fighting stances at Lop, who is in aw of what she just saw.
Usagi: Now whose the surprised one?
Lop: That would be, but not for much longer.
Lop charges forward with her lightsaber and repeatedly swings at Usagi, who simply leaps back until the Lepi Jedi Force pushes him into a crater in the ground. Lop approaches the edge of the cliff near the crater. Usagi then pulls out his Shoto and throws it towards, who leaps away just in time and hops across the edges of the crater before she reaches the bottom. The two rabbit warriors stare each other down, tightening the grip they have on their weapons.
Both: DRAW!!
Lop and Usagi charges at each other and begins to hit each other's sword and Usagi tries to hit the Lepi Jedi. But she dodges his advances and then tries to cut Usagi, but the rabbit Samauri dodges and kicks Lop back to the edge of the corner of the crater. Suddenly TD-4 reappears above Lop and knocks several small rocks at her from above. After scanning them with her visor, Lop then understands what her droid wanted.
Lop: Oh right, Thanks TD-4
Lop then uses the force to catch the falling rocks, as well as Usagi’s Shoto blade, and hurls them at Usagi.
Usagi: Not this time.
Usagi then closes his eyes and listens to the sound of the incoming projectiles to agilely dodges the rocks. He then opens his eyes to catch his Shoto blade by its handle right before it strikes him in the face. As he puts the sword back in its cover, he sees more rocks floating towards him, so he uses his sword to slices them to pieces before running to Lop to try to attack her. But she blocks it with her lightsaber and then the young Jedi kicks Usagi in the gut making him fly backwards.
Lop: Now let’s try that again.
Lop then runs at Usagi who is just getting up, pulling out his Shoto blade to defend himself, Lop senses the attack with the force and dodges the surprise stab from the shorter blade from Usagi and leaps behind him, catching the rabbit samurai off guard.
Usagi: How?
Lop lands behind him and slashes Usagi I’m the back, wounding him and ripping part of his uniform off. Though fallen, Usagi turns his head and glares at Lop before jumps up and hops across the sides of the crater back into the open.
Lop: Hey come back here. I’m not done with you yet.
Lop then hops after her opponent, but when she gets to the top, she sees that Usagi has vanished. As she looks around, she senses something and looks up in the air, just in time to see her opponent flying down to slice her as he yells is battle cry. Swiftly, Loo dodges to the side, causing Usagi’s blades to miss their target, and then runs at Usagi to try to cut him again. But this time, Usagi blocks the attack and begins hitting each other's sword to land another attack, but both of them are too fast to land a direct hit. Right when they have their blades are locked and struggling with each other, the rabbit samurai head butte Lop and kicks her to the ground. Right when Usagi is about to deliver the fatal blow, TD-4 swoops in and takes the hit for her, sending it flying into a tree wounded. As Lol cries out for her droid, she then turns at her opponent, glaring with anger.
Lop: You're Gonna Regret that. He was my friend.
Lop jumps up and takes out her father’s sai and spins to try to catch Usagi off guard. But Usagi blocks two blades with both of his own. Then Lop uses the force to shove Usagi into a tree. Lop then uses the force again to lift Usagi into the air and slam him down on the ground multiple times. As she stops, Usagi slow gets to his feet as he spits the dirt and blood out of his mouth.
Usagi: What power do you possess, youngling.
Lop: My name is Lop, this sword was gifted to me by my father, but this is yet not understand where it comes from. But I know it was meant to help find my sisters. Now it’s time to end this. This is for you TD-4.
Lop runs at Usagi to finish him off, but the rabbit samurai raises his Diato blade and then Lops blocks it with both of her lightsaber and sai. Suddenly, Usagi uses this opportunity to pull out his hidden Shoto blade and stab and cut Lop multiple times in the chest. As Lop falls to her knees, bleeding out, Usagi takes his long sword and slices her head off which rolls down to the crater. Slowly Lop’s body falls to the ground, dead, and Usagi picks his other sword and bows down to the lifeless body in respect.
Usagi: You Fought well, young Lop
Usagi grabs his other sword and begins to limb away towards the clearing.
Results[]
Boomstick: Well Wiz, looks like “Wabbit” Season is over.
Wiz: Both these rabbit like warriors were skilled swordsmen’s and had the noble heart to back them up, but only one had more advantages over the other.
Boomstick: Usagi has battled creature far more deadlier than anything Lop has faced and has been training much longer than she has. Sure she had some cool gadgets at her disposal, not much could help against a seasoned veteran that has been in countless wars.
Wiz: For she has only appeared in one episode of “Star Wars Visions” is hard to tell what type of training Loo has learned in her life.
Boomstick: And from the looks of it it doesn’t look she’s master the full use of the Force, making more of a beginner level at best.
Wiz: Lop surely had the potential to be a talented Jedi, she as eventually outclassed by the more skilled rabbit samurai.
Boomstick: Too Lop got her head “Lopped” off by this “wascally warrior wabbit”.
Wiz: The Winner is Miyamoto Usagi
