A growl of frustration escaped the Replica's lips as Vexen dodged his attacks. "Heh..so a weakling like you does have some fight." The air surrounding them both suddenly grew rather cold, sending goosebumps all across the Replica's skin. Eyes widening in fear at the icicles that had manifested, tips gleaming brightly like a set of knives. He had to think of something quick, lest he wish to get impaled and meet his death.
Right arm drawing back, he quickly tossed Soul Eater down towards the icicles, watching the spinning blade cut through about four of them. Two for the first strike then two more as it turned to return to him, leaving him a small but slippery square to land on. Catching the weapon upon its return as he landed, he felt his feet touch upon the icy ground and give way, sending him sliding rather painfully along the station ground. Staggering up some he rubbed his tailbone which had taken the brunt of the attack and looked up at Vexen.
Something wasn't right here...it was almost as if the other had anticipated his attack. And with his body still recovering from the previous use of Dark Form he was at a slight disadvantage. However, he couldn't show that around the one who had created him. No, he had to maintain his cool, show he wasn't intimidated by the man anymore. Bringing Soul Eater up once more he smirked. "That the best you got Vexen? I could do better than that when you first created me. Then again I am the strongest thing an incompetent fool like you has ever created."
Brute strength wasn't going to work here, he was going to have to get under the man's skin somehow. He needed to convince him to lower his shields...get in close. But how?
