[Ashura grunts as he realizes the trap he has been sucked into. Gaunt out weighs him, and even with Ashura's superior strength, the other can match him with his superior bulk. He lets the hit come, meeting it and then melting back with control, flowing with the force rather than fighting it.
He spun out and around, dropping the blade tip and coming in under his arm for a strike to the side, though the blow was lessened due to it coming from the hit shoulder as well as Ashura being at a somewhat awkward angel.]
[ooc: hey, i'll be gone for two weeks starting tomorrow, so I won't be able to tag! If you're still up for it when I get back we can finish this out :) I know I'd like to, but just saying that's why there won't be one for awhile]
