The Bloodied Hands Arena/White the Rabbit and Marcia the Alopekis vs Cyra The Archer and Arcane: Group Battle

== Spectators ==
A grey-brown Lynx girl sat in the stands, looking out onto the field. There honestly wasn't much to say at the moment.
A white-furred dog (specifically, an Alopekis) sat down next to the Lynx girl. "Hi, who are you?" he said enthusiastically. "My name's Kirby! What's yours?"
"I'm Raindrop! Who're you rooting for?" the Lynx replied.
"I'm rooting for the one who looks like a genderbent version of me!" said Kirby, completely unaware of the absurdity of what he'd just said. "See her down there? That's my sister, Marcia. I'm hoping she'll win, although if she doesn't..." Kirby shrugged. "Well, that happens sometimes."
There was a grey-furred and black-haired bat who was in the stands before both of them, however, and she stayed silent. She wore a black jacket along with jean shorts. I will never understand why Scarlet likes these outfits so much, Tina Dante the Bat thought. She was here to cheer for her best friend White and his random teammate, and seeing as he did well against the blue hedgehog, she expected him to take the win!
Kirby noticed Tina sitting silently nearby and decided to bring her into the conversation. "Hi, other person!" he said, waving at her. "Who are you?"
Tina looked to the side, not expecting any conversation, and gave the alopekis a smile. "My name is Tina Dante! I'm rooting for the white rabbit down there. He's really skilled, and he did good last time we were here, so I hope he rocks it!"
The Lynx girl giggled. "Well, it seems I'm against you two... The bandanna wearing one is my boyfriend; hang on.... ARCANE!! TAKE THAT THING OFF YOUR FACE!!"
At the same time the female tundra wolf stepped out from the portal, another portal appeared near the entrance. Out from the portal came a black wolf, and a sandy brown wolf. The two sat in the stands, not really expecting anyone to say anything.
Kirby, not seeing the two wolves arrived, continued talking to Tina and the lynx: "Well, at least my sister has someone to help her fight! I'm worried about this Arcane dude, though. My sister's forte isn't exactly fighting off guys with spiky arms. Hopefully the rabbit guy has something helpful that he can do."
"Well then! It seems your sister is fighting with my best friend!" Tina said with a smile on her face. She knew White was also fighting a guy named Arcane, so the two had to be teammates. "That's just good fortune, isn't it?"
"L--, I mean Arcane has a couple different powers, but you'll see!" Raindrop said, chuckling.
"Why are you calling Lee 'Arcane?' Is he going through an emo phase or something?" Tina asked, confused.
"I don't mean to interrupt," said Kirby, interrupting Tina and Raindrop's conversation, "but Arcane-slash-Lee's arm just turned purple. Is he about to use a magic power? Spiky magic arms are really not Marcia's forte."
"To Kirby: His powers are rooted in magic, but he doesn't use like spells or anything. To Tina: Arcane is like his nickname that is slowly becoming his real name." Raindrop explained.
”Lil’ sis might be better now,” the sandy brown female grinned. “Aw c’mon, Dusk!! Stop frowning and being so serious!! Cyra is finally fighting!!” she scolded the older, male black wolf beside her.
"See? He can teleport and fire lasery thingies!" the Lynx told the others around her.
The two wolves had just nodded at the lynx.
"Erm," said Kirby somewhat nervously. "Well, at least he's fighting the rabbit guy." Then, noticing what Marcia was up to: "Oh wow!" Kirby exclaimed. "I didn't know she could explode platforms and hold off arrow showers." He looked a bit worried as he continued, "That must have taken a toll on her, though. I hope she figures out what to do before something bad happens to her."
”CYRA!” Vera, the sandy brown wolf yelled. “REMEMBER!! YOU KNOW HOW TO FACE—HMMMMMMPH!” She then got interrupted by Dusk clamping his hand over her mouth.
Kirby looked concerned upon seeing White stomp on Cyra's face. "That's just...bad," he said. "Even though the Arena will heal that, the pain that she'd be in in the moment..."
Kirby remained silent, observing the match without commenting on it, until Marcia got back up. This caused Kirby to jump out of his seat with one fist in the air, shouting, "YES! Go Marcia!" Kirby then hastily sat back down again and stopped talking for a few seconds, when he commented, "Did Marcia just learn a new power? I don't recall her ever manipulating red stuff before..." Kirby trailed off and a look of disgust overcame his face as he realized what was going on. "I'm not even gonna try to guess any more," he said, slumping slightly into his seat.
Dusk and Vera looked at their lil' sis anxiously, seeing that she was now in a 2 vs 1 situation.
When Cyra got defeated, Kirby looked somewhat worried. After squinting to see Cyra better, Kirby sighed with relief. "She looks fine," he said, the worried look partially disappearing from his face. "Though, I, uh, hope Marcia doesn't want to come back here again. This place is pretty viol—" Kirby cut himself off mid-sentence as he saw Marcia's physical condition, instantly throwing himself towards the arena to assist before comedically bouncing off the chair in front of him and falling over backwards. "Probably don't let spectators in there anyway," he muttered as he pulled himself back into his seat.
Dusk sighed. 'She's blacked out. Depended on her crystals too much,' he thought, still calmly sitting down on his spot. On the other hand, Vera almost lunged out from her seat, watching her little sister. A mix of how proud she was, and slight disappointment was seen in her expression.
== The Bloodied Battle ==
Arcane, known in another timeline as Lee, appeared near the wall of the arena. "Where is everyone?" he muttered, fiddling with his bandanna.
A white-furred Alopekis strongly resembling the one in the stands walked just far enough into the arena to count as being in it, then went over to the wall and rested against it, waiting for the other two fighters to arrive.
With a black short-sleeved shirt with a cracked skull design in the middle and camo shorts, a white-furred and black-haired rabbit walked into the arena. He had cybernetic legs that looked very mechanic, and he also donned brown shoes. "Hello, gang. Which of you is Marcia?"
The Alopekis raised one hand and folded her fingers downwards in a wave. "That's me," she said.
White put his hands in his pockets and walked over to her, not trying to judge a book by its cover but trying to gather what he could. So far, White wasn't that impressed, but he was expecting a surprise. "Heyo, I'm White. I hear that I'm your teammate for this scuffle."
Arcane turned around to a shout from the stands. He pulled the bandanna down and stepped into the light. He greatly resembled someone White had seen before, but with few differences: his arm was white instead of silver and he was at least a year older.
A portal appeared, and a light blue tundra wolf stepped out of it, with her bow and arrow holder slinged around her neck. “Sorry I’m late...” Cyra grinned sheepishly. ”I believe my partner for this battle is named Arcane?” she questioningly said, waiting for Arcane himself to reply.
"That'd be me, yeah..." Arcane replied, waving his right hand.
Cyra nodded, and introduced herself: “Just so ya know, I‘m Cyra.” She dipped her head, before standing a few metres away from him.
"Before this all goes crazy, mind telling what you can do? I mean, as far as power goes," he asked, pulling the bandanna back up.
”Well, I’m a marksman, and I have the power to create and manipulate crystals...” Cyra briefly explained.
Meanwhile, Marcia, hearing White talking to her, nodded in acknowledgement. "I look forward to working with you," she said.
"Same here," White said, before looking forward. Is that.... Lee? I'm surprised I'm seeing this marshmallow again. White waved. "Heyo, Lee! How are you doin'?"
Arcane did a double take at being called by his old name. "U-uh... Who are you again?" he asked.
White folded his arms and shook his head. "You don't remember me? Come on! It's White! You know, White Ainekas, friend of Kennedy? Or maybe you'll remember Mac more..." White stopped for a moment before continuing. "...You're joking, right? You don't remember the whole Luna thing?"
"Maybe his memory was wiped," said Marcia quietly into White's ear. "Or maybe this is a different version of Lee; from a different dimension, perhaps."
"Luna...? Kennedy...? What-- who are you!?!" Arcane shouted, pulling his jagged left arm into view.
"What are you saying? Next, you're going to be telling me you don't remember that girl Skylor Kennedy told me about. Wasn't she a pyro or something?" White said before sighing. "But honestly, dude, stop fooling around. You didn't seem like such the joke teller last time I saw you." White was still thinking that this was Lee, despite what Marcia said - Lee was the dimension-hopper, it wouldn't make sense for him to be the one with an alternate counterpart.
"I am Arcane, Champion of Oxford. I don't know what you're talking about," he stated, holding his ground.
"Are you trying to make him angry?" whispered Marcia. "I get the impression that you wouldn't like him when he's angry."
"Lee's a marshmallow, he's not that big of a threat. He was able to hold his ground with Tina, though, so he must not suck." White scratched his head before continuing. "There's no way he's as strong as Savage or Azul, though. He can't be that bad."
Arcane's arm turned purple, and he spun to face Cyra. "I'm ready to crack some skull, how about you?"
”Uh huh!” Cyra grinned at her battle partner, nodding her head. She took her bow, and held it in her left hand, before thrusting the same hand forwards, light blue and white crystals growing on it.
"Did you have to do that?" whispered Marcia, annoyed. "Now he's probably going to tap into his Rage Form and smash us. Taunting the hero—I mean, one's opponent—is never a good idea. It's what gets the villain killed."
White, ignoring Marcia (who appeared to be talking gibberish in his eyes), ran forward in an incredibly high amount of speed before jumping over Arcane. Then, while behind him, he tried to kick Arcane in the back and fire a flare of fire, which could blast him forward. The first blow hit, then Arcane vanished, reappearing behind White. Once behind his opponent, he fired a energy charge at him.
Once White moved, Cyra dashed to her far left, and shot a crystallized arrow above White and Arcane. She then moved her right arm in a slashing movement, commanding the crystal arrow to split apart. This resulted in a shower of crystal shards dropping on White. After she had done the attack, Cyra quickly moved someplace random.
Marcia flicked her right arm in front of her, using her aerokinesis to lift the shards of crystal that were above White's head and throw them back at Cyra. After doing this, she started charging up a ball of compressed air in her left hand, waiting until a good opportunity to throw it at someone nearby and hopefully knock them over with it.
"Shoot," Cyra quickly muttered, and as the shards came flying at her, the female marksman twirled her bow in front of her, deflecting the shards. She then proceeded to collect the shards, and reform all the shards into an arrow.
"Nice one, Marcia!" White said, flashing her a smile before being hit by Lee's energy charge and being blasted forward. White got up off the sand, annoyed, and burst at Lee, trying to kick him sideways in the face before firing a flare in his face point-blank. Lee raised a hand, catching White's kick and trying to slam him into the ground, but White landed on his hands and started dispelling flames from his legs while breakdancing, which threatened to consume and burn Arcane.
Rolling to the side, Arcane's arm turned green (tech) and he attempted to turn off White's flame legs. As White's leg relied less on tech on more with working with his bodily functions, the flames kept going on, and since Arcane had wasted time, they had a higher chance of hitting. Growling, Arcane rolled away again to change colors. When White saw Arcane rolled away, he stopped the flames, got onto his feet and ran at him, trying to kick him sideways in the back. Arcane's arm turned light blue, but the kick connected, throwing him forward. Then, White jumped into the air and fired a flare at Arcane which would explode when it got near him.
Arcane jumped into the air, matching White's altitude with ease and performed a kick. White met the kick with one of his own before pointing his legs at Arcane and firing multiple static bullets at his chest. Lee swung his left arm to block the bullets, which bounced off in random directions. Then he tried another kick, this time for White's face. White kicked upwards at Arcane's leg, causing it to miss his head, before grabbing it and trying to pull Arcane's face to his leg. Then, he'd fire a burst of fire point-blank in Arcane's face. The Hybrid tried to hit White's hand off, if he succeeded, he'd then throw a punch straight at his opponent's chest. As soon as White's hand was off, he knew that Arcane was about to retaliate again, so he twirled sideways and kicked Arcane's hand away before firing a plasma bullet at his leg. He was hit and fell to the ground, his arm changing to purple again. Then, White fired a flare at Arcane, trying to get a projectile combo going on.
Arcane fired a counter-charge at the flare, then teleported above White in order to kick him in the head. When White saw that Lee had teleported, her angled his feet and fired fire to blast him downwards to the sand. The fire could've burned Arcane's face, and once White hit the ground, he reloaded on fuel. The Hybrid, after recovering from the flame face, flung a charge at the Rabbit. White jumped back to dodging it before firing five plasma bullets from both of his legs, rapidly changing which leg he was doing it from. Arcane ran right, then teleported behind him and tried to put White in a chokehold.
Arcane succeeded, but he would find that White was kicking his backwards in the shins while firing bullets and being choked. The next time White did that, Arcane would stomp it back down, then the Hybrid let go with his left hand in order to punch the Rabbit in the face. As soon as White was released, he fired flares to boost him to the ground, allowing him to dodge. Then, he waited for Arcane to make a move. Arcane pulled the sword from his back, moving to strike White with it. White ran circles around Arcane, trying to confuse him before running forward at Arcane. Arcane just swung the sword in a circular motion. White jumped when he saw Arcane swing and landed on Arcane's shoulders before firing fire from his legs to boost him off, which could burn Arcane. The Hybrid growled at the slight burns, then took aim at White with a charge. White jumped high to dodge the blast before firing multiple static bullets at Arcane. Arcane ran away, charging a powerful blast for some point in the future.
White fell on the ground, reloaded his legs, and fired multiple plasma bullets at Arcane, trying to throw the hybrid off. Arcane, with his right hand, spun the sword, blocking the bullets. White fired three flares at Arcane, and even if they hit his sword, he'd still feel a bit of the impact. Arcane took the chance to teleport to right in front of White and fire the charge. White sprawled onto the ground and narrowly dodged it, though it grazed his shirt and put a large tear through it. White attempted to deliver many rapid kicks to Arcane's side, chest, head and legs. Arcane doubled over, but tried to hit White with his sword. White tried to step back, but his chest was grazed once again. Annoyed he tried to kick Arcane in the stomach and fire a flare of fire point-blank in the hybrid's face. Arcane capped the jet with his hand. "Fire if you want to, Rabbit. It'll be an arm for a leg."
"I don't think so," White said, now using his fire to boost him backwards than to actually harm Arcane. He did twists and flips in the air before moving his legs in a dance-like motion and firing multiple static and plasma bullets that could deal a good amount of damage. Arcane teleported behind White, attempting to shove the sword into his back. When White saw that Arcane disappeared, by barely reacted, causing the sword to cut his side instead. White, now annoyed with Arcane, started to walk to him with his hands in his pockets.
Arcane just stared at White. "What are.... you doing?"
White scoffed. "You think some stupid bandana and some lame title will let you beat me? No offense, but you're still a marshmallow. And you're about to be-" White quickly transitioned into breakdancing while having fire erupt from his legs, causing a flame to whirl around the area they were in.
"Lame title? I fought a wizard who defeated an entire village at once." Arcane said, watching the fire. "I bet that's more honorable than anything you've ever done."
"I fought a freaking megalomaniac who was going to take over all of time and space and could've erased you. I've fought gods, don't try to make me look weak." White fired two flares of fire at Lee.
"I never said you were weak." Arcane shouted, jumping over the flares and prepping his own charge.
"You seem a lot like the other pricks I've had to face in my life. Before you? Lee back then looked honorable enough. Then he went all emo, and you were born." White started firing a few static bullets.
"My entire world collapsed, everything, my family, my friends. All gone in an instant. I was never honorable, or strong as Lee; I am Arcane now, broken and erased, this is what's left." He replied, ducking and dodging the bullets. When he got close enough, Arcane swung his sword again.
White flipped over backwards, shooting fumes into Arcane's face to avoid the attack. "....Is this really Lee's future? To become so... edgy? It's really disappointing."
Arcane stumbled back, dropping his sword. "I.... I..... I don't....." If White wanted a chance to strike, this was it. White saw his opportunity and rushed at Arcane, trying to deliver a flaming kick to his stomach. Arcane was thrown backwards, his shirt and bandanna burnt. With heavy breaths, the Hybrid ran at White, charging a blast. White jumped high into the sky, trying to avoid Arcane. The Hybrid roared as he released the powerful blast upwards. White, having enough time to have seen the blow coming shot himself downwards to dodge before shooting three bullets at Arcane. As the distance between the two closed, Arcane held his blade upwards, hoping to get a fatal wound in on White. White dashed at Arcane, seemingly about to make a dumb move. Arcane took a impact-ready stance, pointing the blade at White. However, White jumped over Arcane and fired static bullets that would paralyze him if they hit. Arcane backflipped, trying to slice downwards at White. White cartwheeled to dodge the blow.
"You know, the Lee that I knew wouldn't have ever been so violent. You're definitely not him - you're not nearly as heroic," White said before refilling on fuel and firing a flamethrower from his leg.
"I've simply changed views: I uses to fight for everyone, now I just fight for my own." The Hybrid said, waiting.
"Yes, because becoming more selfish is changing yourself for the better. Great logic there, buddy," White said while the flames were blasted at Arcane.
"I never said I was a better person than who I used to be. I just realized I couldn't save everyone, so I stopped trying," Arcane stated, springing over the flames. "I regret that I had to make that choice, but I will die before someone touches her."
"...sounds a lot like a certain pyrochaotic hedgehog I knew. Huh. Anyways... I can't say I like the path you've chosen, Lee. It... it shows your true colors, doesn't it? Huh. Never knew your true colors would be so... distasteful. You had so many friends, and you threw them all away? You didn't even try giving hope a change, you just... gave up!" White dashed at Arcane again before kicking the sand, causing the arena to look much more blurry for Arcane.
Arcane stabbed his sword into the ground. "I surrender." When Arcane said those two words, White stopped. He smiled, thinking that Arcane would really see what he'd become, and turned his back on the hybrid.
"Don't give up through your life, okay?" White said before running to his teammate.
Meanwhile, Cyra shot one arrow after the other at Marcia, before creating a crystal platform for her to stand on. From there, she tried sniping with her arrows.
Marcia used the same trick as she had used a minute before to toss away the arrows coming at her, although this time, she threw them to the side instead of at Cyra, realizing that they'd actually help Cyra if thrown back at her. Marcia then threw her ball of compressed air towards Cyra's crystal platform in an attempt to explode it. However, upon seeing Cyra sniping her, Marcia started using her aerokinesis to hold off the arrows while trying to continue moving the ball of air, resulting in the arrows simply being held a short distance away from Marcia while the ball of compressed air moved slowly towards Cyra's crystal platform at a speed that would make it only hit the platform after several seconds had elapsed.
'I know what you're up to,' Cyra grinned. 'A certain crow gave me a similar experience.' The female tundra wolf shot several more crystal arrows at Marcia, causing Marcia's ball of air to come to a halt as Marcia put more and more effort into holding off the arrows. Eventually, Marcia used her aerokinesis to push herself out of the way of the arrows and push the arrows to the side with one move, after which she threw the ball of compressed air at the crystal platform, causing it to explode and causing Cyra to backflip onto a new platform that caught her fall.
While Marcia caught her breath from this exhausting combination move, Cyra made one platform after the other, hopped onto a random crystal platform to adjust her position, and fired more arrows at Marcia. Marcia used her aerokinesis to hold off the arrows, but was clearly much lower on energy than she was before.
The female tundra wolf then fired one last arrow at Marcia, before slinging her bow around her. She then jumped down from her platform, and wiped the sweat off her forehead using her scarf.
Marcia took advantage of Cyra's lapse in attacking her to use what energy she had to toss the arrows to the side. Finding this exhausting, she started gasping for air, leading her to use some aerokinesis to push more air into her lungs. She inhaled some sand as well, leading her to cough it out. This gave her an idea: Using her aerokinesis, she picked up some sand from the floor and threw it at Cyra as a low-energy distraction while Marcia used the time to recover some of her energy.
Cyra got hit by the sand, and also got some in her eyes, so she started frantically rubbing her eyes, trying to get the sand out. 'Shoot,' the female archer cursed in her head, and mentally prepared for what was going to happen.
By this point, Marcia had gotten enough energy back to be useful, so she created two more balls of compressed air (one in each hand), then threw the right one at Cyra's left side, followed shortly afterwards by throwing the left one at Cyra's right side. The archer double backflipped backwards, and surrounded herself with crystals, blocking off the attack.
Marcia summoned a small cyclone a little bit taller than her or Cyra, then sent it moving towards Cyra, slowly at first, but with increasing speed as it neared Cyra. The archer, however, ran further to the back, and let her crystals be destroyed by the cyclone. Seeing that her crystals were swirling around in the cyclone, she ran into the cyclone, and hopped on one crystal to another, making her way to the top of the cyclone.
Marcia, realizing that the cyclone was supporting Cyra, caused it to disperse, leaving Cyra and the crystals suspended in midair with nothing holding them up. Cyra grinned, and made another crystal platform to catch her fall.
Marcia caused the winds that formerly composed the cyclone to hone in on the crystal platform in an attempt to destroy it by pressing on it from all sides, which would leave Cyra once again stranded in midair. "YEEEEEHAAAAAH!!" the archer screamed loudly, whilst grinning. She created a crystal bowl underneath her, standing on it like a surf board. While still 'surfing', the youngster controlled the crystal shards to home on Marcia. But at the end of the fall, Cyra landed hard on her tail, colliding with the crystal bowl, causing her to wince in pain.
Marcia created a cyclone underneath herself to launch her into the air, sweeping up the crystal shards into the cyclone with her. When she noticed Cyra wincing in pain, Marcia decided to make her move: Forming the crystal shards into a hollow crystal spike about the length and diameter of Marcia's height, Marcia rapidly propelled the arrow towards Cyra, using most of the cyclone's winds to shoot it at Cyra at high speeds and using the remainder to ease herself to the ground. Cyra might notice that Marcia would be somewhat tired out for a few seconds after using this combination of moves. The archer blocked it off by curling (or hiding) under the crystal bowl, before using it like a frisbee, throwing it at Marcia. She then held out her right hand, and curled it into a fist, splitting it into sharp arrows that were all heading for Marcia. Five static bullets and a flare we're all heading to Cyra's back, and the bullets would paralyze her. As soon as they hit, the archer screamed, and collapsed to the sand, unable to move. Meanwhile, Marcia used her aerokinesis to temporarily hold off the projectiles, then dropped to the ground and let them sail past. She then lay on the ground, feeling exhausted.
White walked up to the paralyzed Cyra and put his foot on her face before saying, "Sorry I had to do this to ya." and releasing extreme flames from his legs, all up in Cyra's face.
Marcia saw events from her prone position. Without getting up, she said in a neutral tone, "That's extreme."
Cyra clenched her jaws together, tears threatening to fall. After her older sister had screamed and reminded her that she had faced this, 'situation' before, she had an idea. Slowly, the archer focused, and, seeing all of the shattered crystals on the floor, she aimed it all at Marcia's head. "I-It's okay, White," she whispered.
White ran around Cyra, dodging the crystals and sliding other the others. Flipping so that he wouldn't step on any leftover crystals, White landed on the sand, ran behind Cyra, and tried to fire a flare at her head.
Meanwhile, Marcia tried to defend herself from the crystals that were aimed at her. As she didn't quite have enough energy to blow away the crystals, she put one arm in front of her face and the other in front of her chest while pulling up her legs in front of her stomach, causing the crystals to stick into her arms and legs. She then tried to get enough energy to aerokinetically pull out the crystals and attack Cyra further, an effort that was now compounded by the pain caused by the crystals sticking in her limbs.
The crystals that Cyra had aimed at herself had formed a crystal helmet, blocking White’s attack, as she double back flipped. She then created a platform for her to jump on. Before Cyra could land on the platform she had just created, White fired a flare at it, trying to trip Cyra up. The tundra wolf growled, and fell down on the sand, before hopping to her feet. Cyra took an aim at White, and shot a normal arrow at him.
White simply jumped to the side to sidestep it before firing electric bullets at her. The archer had proposely shot crystal arrows at the bullets to defend herself. When the crystal arrows shattered, Cyra had a confident grin on her face.
Not paying to her expression, White jumped up and fired two flares at her. 
The archer took off her helmet, and turned it into a shield, blocking White’s attack. Cyra then controlled the shards to home in on White, before taking deep breaths and sitting down on the sand, trying to regain stamina and energy.
Marcia finally gathered enough energy to aerokinetically push the crystals out of her limbs, causing the crystals to go flying, as well as causing her limbs to start bleeding where the crystals had been sticking in them. "Ow...this hurts so much..." Marcia muttered to herself as she pulled herself to her feet, trying to figure out where or if she could help White.
White used the flares to boost him back, and tried kicking away the shards. Marcia, not wanting to see White suffer the same fate as she had, shot a gust of wind towards the shards, trying to blow them away before they could hit White and get stuck in him. However, the effort momentarily knocked her to her knees, leaving her to slowly get up over the next few seconds.
White smiled at Marcia, saying "Thanks, kid!" before firing electric bullets at Cyra, seeing how exhausted she was. 
The archer dodged some of the bullets, getting hit by the rest as well. She then let out a breath, and shot two crystal arrows: one at Marcia, and the other at White. Cyra then controlled the arrows to shatter, turning the two crystal arrows, into multiple crystal shards. She stumbled a bit, having overused her power.
Marcia used her aerokinesis to stop the crystal shards and move them to the ground, then used her aerokinesis to create a gust of wind in an attempt to knock Cyra over (stepping to the side as she did so to avoid blowing back the crystals and thus letting Cyra reuse them). Although this was not by design, a bit of blood shot at Cyra as well, as the air currents went past Marcia's arms as well. After these moves, Marcia looked exhausted; despite not falling to her knees as she had the previous time, it was clear that she would need to recover briefly before using her aerokinesis again. The blood landed on Cyra's face, blinding her for a while, as she got blown backwards, managing to skid to a stop at the end. Cyra then wiped the blood off her face, before smashing her crystal bow on the ground, controlling all the crystal shards to hover (in its place) in the air. Her sight became a bit fuzzy in the process.
Marcia turned slightly to White and said, "Can you handle this next one? I'm exhausted and my conscience isn't helping..."
"I got ya," White replied with a nod. Using his innate hopping skills, White burst forward with an extreme amount of speed, throwing two black bombs forward. Then, he ejected flames from his legs while performing a Spin Dash, surrounding himself with fire while heading straight for Cyra. The archer used her bow to protect her out of instinct, panicking and not thinking straight. Her bow protect her from White, but he shot himself back as the two other bombs exploded near her. The archer was blown backwards, hitting the barrier hard. Her bow flew out of her grip, and tossed onto the floor. Cyra weakly punched the ground and tried standing up, but her legs were shaky, her vision blurring. Instead of walking, she crawled towards her bow, and shot a scatter crystal arrow. She then gritted her teeth, as her sight became worse. Now, Cyra wasn't able to stand, and was slowly weakening from having overused her power.
White easily sidestepped the arrows with a slight smirk before racing over to Cyra. He tried to kick her up, knee her in the stomach, and use flames for his artificial legs to try and boost them both to the wall (where Cyra's stomach would be in serious danger). And it hit, Cyra choked up blood, and winced, biting her tongue and holding back a scream. As she and White hit the wall, she controlled all the crystals to home on White, attempting to pierce him. The crystals hit White's back, causing him to grumble, obviously trying to hold in a yell. All right, let me try to finish this. White did a bicycle kick, which might've knocked Cyra backwards. If it succeeded, he jump in the air and do some hurricane kicks before kicking her in the face several times in midair. Then, he'd boost himself onto his hands on the sand with flames from his legs before shooting an inferno of flames upwards. Cyra was hit by White's combo, heck, she let herself get hit. The wolf had shielded herself from the flames, though, by using all her crystals to make an armor (including taking out the ones that stabbed White's back). Once she fell on the ground, Cyra raised a hand up, and her armor was destroyed. She then collapsed onto the sand, huffing, "I... give... up... No more... stamina." She then closed her eyes, and her world faded to black.
Marcia walked over to Cyra and White, limping slightly from her injuries. "I guess you won, White," she said, offering him a pained half-smile. Turning to Cyra, she said, "If you can hear me, you fought well...Maybe we can do this again somewhere less—" Marcia winced as a sudden pain shot through her. "—violent?"
Cyra didn't respond, having blacked out from the amount of energy she used for her crystals. The archer laid weakly, unconsciously making all the crystals disappear. 
White lightly lifted the girl's arm and fist-bumped her while she was unconscious. "You aren't a bad fighter," he said before turning to Marcia. "And you aren't a bad teammate!"
Marcia's eyes appeared to have glazed over, staring at a random spot on the arena wall. After swallowing a few times, she said quietly, "I've never tried...maybe I should."
