Baker AU Log: Mountain Ridge Skirmish.
As Undyne got up, Baker set up his guard, ready for another charge. They began circling each other, until they both stepped forward, and continued. It was a vicious waiting game, because as soon as you attack, It was just a matter of who had the faster hand and better aim. Suddenly, Undyne lashed out, stabbing forward with her energy spear. Baker dodged right and swirled around, hitting her armor with a clink. The only thing that that did was scratch the armor. Undyne whirled around, swiping at his feet. He dodged this, but when he looked up, he found out the hard way that he let his guard down. The punch connected with a loud crack and sent Baker flying into the wall before the path. He shook his head to clear the stars coming from behind his eyes in time to see Undyne, airborne, ready to make it the very first skeleton shish kabob. He quickly dodged away as sand flew and ground shook as she landed, driving the spear deep into the ground. But she pulled it up as easily as she drove it in and swung it sideways. He parried the blow, but the impact made his hands hurt. Their weapons clashed, slowly getting faster till the spearheads bottom got caught with each other. This was his chance, as her lack of helm was her weakness. He pulled the shovel with enough strength to stumble her and quickly flew forward and delivered the headbutt. Her head flew back, and he shook his head again. Of all vulnerabilities, why did the one opener he DID have hurt so much? But she was vulnerable, so that worked. But as he swung to finish it, the handle was grabbed. And just as simply as he walked, he was thrown across the room again, but this time he used the soul power to help with the landing. It was still rough, but not as rough. As he stood up on the floor, his shovel impacted beside him, stuck in the rock on the wall. 'he quickly yanked it out with an awful scratch sound and heard a familiar bweem sound. He quickly slashed behind him and took care of the three spears that were flying towards him, but they were quickly replaced. Thus began the endurance test, Baker kept slashing the spears in half as fast as Undyne could make and throw them. Walking forward, near mindlessly taking care of them, he realized that Undyne practically had infinite energy, while he was already feeling tired. He kept count of the spear onslaughts, knowing that she had to take a break eventually. The spears stopped for a split second, but that's all he needed. He soul dashed around five feet and used it to pull her to him, delivering a harsh clothesline, and then he flipped her around and did it again, and again, and again. Finally, he slammed her into the ground and launched himself away, and launched himself back as soon as she got back up. The drop kick connected, made more powerful by the soul power he used, and launched Undyne off the side. Two things went though Bakers mind. Thank god I had guard training and that this was part of the daily drill. Undyne could take a lot more punishment, but that didn't matter, he could run with out being pelted and hide till she left. And run he did, all the way to Hotland, and he knew a perfect place to hide.
