((I wasn't there, but I would allow it. If he enters a fight with you guys, the specifications in place for the fight you are both engaged in extend to him as well.))

((Indeed. You threw a psychic blast at me yourself Kai, so I only assume that powers were working at the time...))
Tensuo glances around at the somewhat dark sparring room of Zalgar's creation.
"This will do fine."
Raising his sword with both hands, he levels it on Zalgar while holding it off to one side of his body, one hand on the pommel in a stance that looked like he could lunge at any time.
"I am ready."

I flip the sword around, reaquainting myself with its balance.
"I've missed you, my friend." I murmur as I extend the blade over my head, holding it almost horizontally and extended outwards. I extend my other hand, palm out, at Tensuo.
"Let us begin."

Tensuo charges quickly, running in a form that indicated he would lunge. Suddenly just before he reached Zalgar he spun around as he continued forward, bring his sword around in an upward swipe to Zalgar's right leg.

As Tensuo charges, I draw back my blade, preparing to strike. The spinning attack, while unorthodox, is not necessarily surprising to one of my experience. I dart to the side, whipping my blade back and following the blade as it whips around Tensuo's body. I quickly dash forwards, slashing my blade across Tensuo's torso as I go by. No matter the result of the attack, I continue to run forward for a few meters, before spinning around and bringing my blade to a guarding stance.
((Funny you should try a spinning attack. I've done that before, and the result of my attack was much like the one you just saw here.))

Tensuo, after missing with his swipe, dodges by sending his weight to one leg and swings his body around, ending up facing the other way. Tensuo turns again to Zalgar and holds his sword low to the ground with both hands. He exhales slowly.

"Not bad. I commend your dodge." I say as I shift my stance, holding my blade in both hands high above my head, the blade pointed outwards and slightly downwards.

((I can see I will have to keep up the offense...))
Tensuo rushes him again, his sword angled downward as comes up on Zalgar fast. As soon as he was in reach, Tensuo stopped dead, shifting his blade so it was pointed up, and swiping in an upward vertical slash.

((I tend to be a reactive fighter because I find it easier to take the offensive during battle than to just charge in))
I sidestep and bring my own blade down hard against Tensuo's sword to stop it's slash. My right hand releases my blade and I quickly attempt to elbow Tensuo in the face.

((Translation: It is cooler to dodge the other person's attack all cool like. lol))
Tensuo quickly releases one of his hands from his blade just as Zalgar did, bringing up his armored gaultnet to take the strike with a loud clang. Tensuo shifts around Zalgar slightly as he grasps his wrist with the hand he blocked with, attempting to swing around behind him, pulling his arm backwards as a cop would do.

((d**n right))
I frown in concentration. As Tensuo grabs my hand, I bunch my muscles. Still pushing down with the blade, I pull forward with my arm and duck down, attempting to flip Tensuo over my back. Should the maneuver suceed, my blade should still be locked with his own, but he should be prone, giving me the advantage.

Tensuo feels the pull and quickly shifts. He slips his right leg inbetween Zalgar's own, placing it in front of his right anckle. Tensuo is pulled off his feet and forward, but in the process Tensuo locks his knee, pulling Zalgar's own foot out. The two both fall forward, Tensuo on top of Zalgar as he slams into the floor. Tensuo rolls forward, making sure to keep his sword out so he does not impale himself. He stands and looks at Zalgar as he gets in a defensive stance.
"I am a proficient grappler as well."

I roll to the side and flip onto my feet, keeping a firm grip on my sword.
"Well done. It's been a long time since I've had a fight this invigorating." I say as I bring my blade fowards, holding it low with the point diagonally upwards ((think Cloud's stance from Final Fantasy VII)).

Tensuo charges once again, striking down with his blade, then switching again to swipe upwards, then again with a downward strike. ((Think Mitsurugi's charge from Soul Caliber II))

I draw back and flick my blade in several defensive movements to block the attacks. Instead of taking the offensive, I draw back even further and bring my sword into a low stance, the blade held outwards and pointing diagonally towards the ground.
