The plant was almost in range, his feet slammed upon the ground closing the distance now. Then with one fierce leap he pushed his body forward jumping towards the plant's body. His arms were swinging forward ready to release the rockets to fire straight at the plant. The first real take down of this fight, the bulbs were weak, to take down a big plant, that was what was necessary for him. Then he felt something, it grabbed at his feet swinging his body sideways as he launched the rockets. His aim was undone and they flew off in a different direction. Not completely lost was the effort of the bottle rockets though they flew true smashing into a plant on the other side of the arena. Immediately they ignited the plant and it swung wildly in the air flailing and failing to put out the fire. Slowly but surely it was burning down, Kano smiled that was one to go.
Behind him a voice began to yell out, it was overly concerned about some ... harpa- ... something, probably the plant. The voice was also oddly familiar though Kano could not place the voice for the life of him. Not that he had to, as soon as he was placed on the ground, whoever had grabbed him turned him around. The familiar face of the guy who had tried to help him earlier suddenly came into view. He seemed annoyed, troubled, or something based on his face Kano honestly could not tell nor understand why. Did he not know the point of this whole arena thing? Then the man started to talk, yell even at Kano. Talking about danger and the uhh danger to others or something, Kano honestly did not care too much. Instead the sound passed harmlessly through one ear and out the other with Kano blindly nodding. Over a lot of tries and failures Kano had noted that nodding and not saying anything was generally a decent way of getting people off his back.
The lecture was continuing, and the man's statements seemed more and more incredulous to Kano. And though he kept his mouth shut his feet kept bouncing in excitement to get back in the fight. Not to mention the man probably had not realized the danger they were still in given the plant right behind him had reason to try and attack Kano. Anyways the man began talking about how he should not be using his abilities on the plants of all things. Kano had only one thing to say to that ... "Are you nuts? Its trying to kill me, I'm not gonna not go all out on it!"
Kano bumped his chest with his fist, but the man did not seem to notice his comment and the lecture continued. Sighing a little Kano went back to his routine. Except now his eyes were constantly watching, the poppy behind him was sure to be attacking him soon. And once the man before him stopped talking after saying Kano should join him in some bs game made to get the both of them killed, at least in Kano's mind. Kano put his hand on the man's shoulder looked him straight in the eye with the most serious look he could give. "No." Kano said firmly. "I won't. I am not holding back or taking part in some weird game. There is a game going on right now, and I'm aiming to win it. FOR FOOD." Kano said the last part with emphasis.
Then suddenly he pressed hard down onto Dan's shoulder to push him downwards as the poppy's last bulb swung past them in a long arc. "If you'll excuse me." Kano broke free of Dan's hold and turned to face the giant poppy. His right arm morphed once again forming another bottle rocket in his hand. Without hesitation he launched himself at the poppy punching forward with his arm. The bottle rocket flew outwards this time on target. Kano followed along with it and as the bottle rocket exploded directly into the stem of the plant Kano's fist following behind it entering growing hole in the stem. Using that as a grip Kano morphed his leg into a sparkler once again twisting with his hand as an anchor. With a wide swing Kano brought his sparkler leg to bear upon the plants stem trying to 'behead' the beast.
