The fight continued on for a few moments. Xuelian's momentum continued to build, he attacks came faster and faster.

Regardless of how many attacks her opponent got in Xuelian returned them three to one.

Then to came the coup de grace. Xuelian managed to in a single continuous graceful motion knock her opponent to the ground with a sweep of her spear then drive it straight into his chest.

In a single attack it was over. Her opponent's vanished into dust and overhead read:

{Winner: Xuelian.}

I felt a twinge of pain in my chest.

I wasn't sure if it was regret or frustration. But that pain made my heart ache for relief.

It was in that moment, when Xuelian's attack landed that I saw myself there. That it was me who had that spear driven through my chest.

Despite the agony, the pain, I saw myself receiving her judgement.

"...," "...Tsu-," "Tsubasa!" Suna's voice snapped me into reality.

"Huh!" I turned to look at her, "oh."

"Are you okay?" She asked.

"...Oh yeah I'm fine, I was just focused on the match was all."

"...hmm," she replied sounding unconvinced.

"I'm fine Suna, I promise."

"Alright."
