Deylor heaved a sigh as he saw Jack pacing himself as he walked towards Deylor.

The two were ready to face each other.

Deylor wiped some sweat of his forehead before he spoke.

"Nice match."

Jack looked at the stage.

"You too."

Deylor controlled his aura to form a spike.

"2 matches away from the big screen."

Jack looked at the floor as his eyebrows furrowed.

"They don't matter anyways."

Deylor looked at Jack in confusion.

"Every year they rank it on points. The Earth girl you fought will probably make it."

Deylor grimaced.

His dreams could crumble if these 2 matches went anything but swimmingly.

Deylor spoke as he did some basic stretches.

"Don't go eas-."

A monotone voice cut in.

"Okay. Now we are going to do the tournament. Yay. First off is you." A light shined on Deylor.

Deylor sweated.

"And you."

A light shone on a blonde haired boy.

Deylor grimaced.

Andrew took a few steps back.

The fear written on his face.

Deylor waved but Andrew turned his head as he scuttled away.

Deylor said his goodbyes to Jack as he made for the stage.

A monotone countdown began.

"5. 4. 3. 2. 1. Go."

Bang. A red foot swiftly curved from the right towards Andrews face shattering an instantaneous ice wall by accident.

As its moment slowly left it continued its descent before another foot descended from the right smoothly hitting Andrews now Ice-covered skin.

Andrew was sent flying backwards as he used his Ice to control his surroundings.

A red silhouette strategically began a relentless assault.

Ice walls shattered as the red silhouette punch, kicked and smashed through Andrews defenses.

Andrew summoned his signature hammer before red energy erupted and blasted straight through it.

Deylor now in mid air rocketed himself with both hands behind his back towards Andrew using his dense red energy before his two feet met Andrews face after powering through two ice walls.

Deylor met the floor behind Andrew as he grabbed Andrews face from behind.

Instincts screamed.

Deylor quickly saw his hand freeze before 'Andrew' cracked and 4 hammer smashed down from NESW targeting Deylor.

Deylor blurred up before he spotted a shadow behind an Ice wall.

Deylor speedily dashed around Ice walls.

Andrew summoned more Ice walls as Deylor pummeled and shattered them once again revealing the cycle.

Andrew summoned another Ice hammer as he ran back before he coughed blood.

Andrew looked down.

His body was now battered and bruised from Deylors attacks curving around his Ice barriers by utilizing the residue energy.

Andrew sent out Ice waves only to see a red silhouette blurring around the stage.

A red foot appeared in front of his face.

Andrew smashed a hammer down.

"After-image."

A voice came from behind.

Bang.

A dust cloud formed behind Andrew as he was sent face-first through the dirt for 20 meters.

Andrew got up in determination.

Grasp.

A red silhouette threw Andrew out the ring.

Andrew spat blood as he lay on the cold brick floor in front of the Audience.

A monotone voice quickly pierced through the gasps and chatter.

"Deylor has won."

"Next match u-."

"Nice fight, Deylor."

Deylor nodded after hearing Jacks voice.

"1 Match away."

Jack asked in concern.

" Did you really have to do that to him. If he was your teammate what are you gonna do to me?"

Deylor sighed as he chuckled.

"I had to go fast and brutal because he's too intelligent and would've formed plans."

Jack put his hands behind his head as he replied.

"Makes sense."

A monotone voice.

Jack got up as he walked off.

"Guess it's my time to go."

Deylor stared heavily at Jacks receding back.

Now was the time to see firsthand if they had equalized once more or grew only further apart in strength.

Deylors mouth shaped an o.

Jack walked back as clean as a dishwasher.

"You okay, Deylor?"

Deylor started praying.

Deylor said innately.

"Hell naw. I am not fighting that. How is that even balanced?"

A monotone voice cut into Deylors fought line.

"The final fight will be... You and you."

Deylor and Jack shone under a white light.

Jack grimaced while Deylor silently cried tears.

Deylor was soon dragged to the stage by two security guards as he yabbed.

"You can't do this to me!"

The security guards looked at Deylor in pity.

"There goes another one."

"Reminds me of the last one."

Deylor brushed the dust off his shoulders as he prepared himself.

A monotone voice.

Wind pierced.

10 silver swords flashed by.

Deylor weaved them before wind cut behind his back.

The 10 swords rebounded as trails of blue resided.

Deylor quickly blurred towards Jack only to meet 5 more swords.

Deylor erupted with Red Energy before he condensed his aura.

The swords were redirected only to relaunch.

Deylor sighed before he planned innately.

"This is why I didn't want to fight Jack! Controlling 15 swords had made him a monster and his control is unbeatable. Getting to Jack would cost an arm and a leg and that's not even talking about touching him!"

Deylor weaved as he side stepped left and right. Swords hit the ground behind him.

One moment. That was all he needed.

Deylor ran backwards before he coated two of his fingers in dense-red aura.

Deylor backflipped as he saw Jack and a sea of swords.

Deylor closed his eyes as he released his fingers.

His goal clear in his mind.

Deylor opened his eyes.

A huge red grand cross appeared as it drove the sea of swords away temporarily crippling Jacks prowess.

Deylor blurred before his fist landed on Jacks face.

Poom. (Not spelling mistake.)

Jack was sent whirling back before a cut appeared on Deylors back.

A sword had barely crossed the back of his back before it hit the ground.

Deylor bit his lip as the sea of silver swords rose again and Deylor backed off.

Deylor coated his fingers red before he released another grand cross.

Deylor rushed Jack again. A sea of silver charged from the right.

Deylor smirked.

"Saved this just for you."

Another Deylor appeared behind Jack his fist armed for a right hook.

The other Deylor vanished in red energy.

Wind pierced aboe.

Deylor blurred to the right as he panted.

Several silver swords followed by blue striked down where Deylor had just stood.

Jack made no waste of this opportunity.

Jack summoned all of his swords to his right hand before he clustered them up.

Blood spilt from his mouth as their auras combined.

A mega sword lifted, the air waved as it moved.

Deylor stared in desperation as he looked up.

Deylor shook his head.

Dense-red energy erupted from Deylor as his body weakened..

A similar stream erupted from Deylor. Deylor coated his fingers.

A huge red grand cross met a descending bright-blue sword pillar.

Smoke rose as two individuals were seen trading blows.

Deylor used the last of his Demonic energy to boost his body as Jack used his now 2 swords to deflect and attack Deylor.

The two fought and fought until they reached the edge of the stage.

Deylor blurred towards Jack as he aimed his fist in one last coat of red energy.

Jack summoned 5 swords as more blood dripped from his mouth.

The 5 swords slammed Deylor just before he reached Jack.

Jack smiled in victory before the residue energy from Deylors aura pushed him to the right.

Jacks swords fell as the two fought in desperation to push the other to the floor.

Jack tried to turn Deylor around so he would be on top before his back met the cold hard floor.

"Winner. Deylor."

A monotone voice broke the atmosphere.

Deylor and Jack rolled back in sheets.

In the hospital...

"Nice attack."

"You too."

Jack and Deylor spoke as they nervously watched the big screen where they could soon be on.

A monotone voice filled the screen as 5 silhouettes appeared.

"First enroller."

A girl with red hair was shown.

Deylor recognised her as someone from his team. Adriana.

Deylor held back his speech in anticipation.

"Second enroller."

A boy with blonde air appeared.

Andrews face was shown.

"Third enroller."

A girl with brown hair was shown.

The earth girl.

"Fourth enroller."

Jacks face was shown.

"Fifth enroller."

Deylors face was shown.

Deylor and Jack lifted what they could in joy.. (They were injured.)

1 week later...

Inside an auburn posh office.

A man with straight black hair and a serious face/dedicated build spoke.

"Congrats. You're on the big screen."

Start of new arc I guess.
