It still hit me?

A tiny bit shocked, yet still happy. Alex nodded and walked towards Hana. She turned around and sighed, "You must have gotten a lot done today. I'm sure Buster was the one who fought you as well. That man learned some new techniques so he was excited to try them." She spoke slowly. 

Alex looked at Hana and replied, "Indeed! It was amazing. I was totally surprised. Didn't expect him to use his powers in that way, however, I was still at least able to block them and not let them hurt me. However, Even if He didn't have that, I still lost to him in overall power."
