THIS IS MY UNITED STATES OF WHATEVVER

[blindingrevenge]

[Sasuke would have been foolish not to scout the area the fight was going to happen in. it wasn't a controlled environment, certainly not with that coward as his opponent, and so the day before he'd wandered through the area, assessing the terrain and what it was that could be used against him.

he hadn't been surprised when in passing the area earlier the appointed duel day, to see the flutter of that obnoxious purple cape. and upon arrival, he had to hand it to him when Sasuke narrowed his gaze as the setting sun gleamed on his profile. cowardly, yes, but a total moron? maybe not. it took some sort of planning to set this up, even if most of what Eridan had done couldn't be seen with the naked eye.

Sasuke stopped just inside edge of the playing field, ground his toe into the dirt and scanned the area.]

[Kerrigan, like everyone else, had scouted the area extensive, but she already knew the terrain from previous training sessions. It was clear that there had been changes in the works as well, given how she knew that Eridan would work for this kill. Most likely unlike Eridan, she had researched the person in question, and it wasn't hard to hack through posts and weasel out information

[faint sounds of speech caught his attention; he frowned and snuck a peek around his cover only to see--

--his partner? conversing with the enemy?!]

Fuck! [and then, more quietly, a softer "fuck!" it took an impressive amount of willpower not to blow his cover and yell at the two of them about how they were ruining the Uchiha bastard's assassination, but Eridan managed.

it's okay. no, this is just a minor setback -- maybe she's planning on sucker punching the asshole so he wouldn't have to bother with the cloak and dagger bullshit here. yeah, that'd be good. it would have been fucking GREAT if she'd told him about it beforehand, but maybe she just wanted to surprise him here.

seething quietly but refusing to give himself away just yet, he poked his head out again and watched them intently, auricular sponge clots open and eyes narrowed.]

[blindingrevenge]

[though he'd seen her before, this was the first time Sasuke had ever spoken to the woman face to face. he regarded her outfit impassively, unsurprised by her efforts. she was a fighter, he knew, part of an army of some sort in her own world. unfortunately, having been without the technology in this word previously, Sasuke hadn't been able to dig up information on either of them the way Kerrigan could.

but what Sasuke lacked in solid information, he made up for in alertness. a lot could be inferred from a single meeting, and he'd always been good at putting the pieces together with an alarming quickness. if she was his opponent, he might have had a harder time. but everything Sasuke had faced here he viewed as another challenge to overcome, and this was just another example of that.

she did nothing to betray Eridan's position, but Sasuke was fairly certain he had the general area narrowed down.]

So he did bring you. [Sasuke didn't sound surprised.]
