I've always told you that patience could be your greatest ally.

[ Anakin has become proficient over the years. His instincts in the Force have been honed to needle point, a kind of alert precision that rivals — if not surpasses entirely &mdahs; Obi-Wan's own. He isn't swinging his saber so much as teasing; swatting at his former Padawan like his whole heart isn't in it.

And it isn't. Soresu is his preferred form, and he has learned over the years (in part with Anakin himself) how to create an impenetrable barrier. But that sort of thing doesn't always work in a duel, and Anakin knows his style like he knows his very own. It's why when they spar these days, they are evenly matched — especially if Anakin is feeling sure and calm.

It seems like this might be one of those times.

Obi-Wan feints, comes in with a classic Form Three move, but shifts in the middle of it and alters directly into Four. Suddenly on the offensive after testing Anakin's reflexes, he comes in low. ]
