3rd Person POV:
Taking place during the time where the eight guardian generals continued their original purpose of defending the world against impurities, Xion and Senna can both be seen eating sea-salt ice cream while sitting atop a large tower-like structure, which gives them a clear view of the small village below.
Senna: (finishing her ice cream) I'll never get tired of eating these.
Xion simply nods while keeping her melancholic expression, which briefly fades as she holds her head in pain.
Senna: Hahahaha, I knew you'd probably get a brain freeze from eating too quickly.
Xion: (pouting) Shut up.
Senna: Don't be like that. (pats the azure-eyed demigod's head) Did you get the result?
Xion: (checking the ice cream stick, which is revealed to be blank) Doesn't look like it.
Senna: (tosses her stick) Same here. Guess we're both not getting any good luck on this mission.
Xion: ...Do you think it will ever end?
Senna: Hmm?
Xion: Our battle against the impurities, I've been created only centuries ago yet it appears that the enemy has only been growing in power.
Senna: (forms a sad smile) I can't say it will end. No matter how hard we dedicate ourselves to fighting against them, all of the impurities appear to be damn near immortal like us. (looks up at the sky) The only thing we can do is destroy the main source of them and hope it stays dead.
Xion: (looks down at the village seeing a group of children playing happily) I just wish for the people we're protecting to live their lives without any sort of fear.
Senna: I understand. (channeling her energy) We were all created to defend humanity, yet even with all our power combined it appears to have only delayed their inevitable end.
Xion: (stands up) I won't give up on the fight. Even if it lasts for nearly an eternity, I will keep fighting until the humans can freely enjoy themselves to the fullest.
Senna: (sighs before standing up) Can't argue with you there. Our purpose probably will be everlasting so we might as well put our all into it until the very end.
The two demigods continue to overlook the village before setting out with newfound resolve for the upcoming battle ahead.
Now in the present time, Xion and Senna stand against one another in the tournament arena as loud cheers erupt from the spectators.
Port: Good evening everyone, we would like to reintroduce our two combatants that will be going head-to-head against one another in this potentially mind-numbing final match!
Oobleck: Representing Beacon Academy we have Y/N L/N! And representing Haven Academy we have Senna Retsuko! (glasses flicker) Going by the statistics based off our previous matches, it's very likely that our finalists will completely shatter all preconceived expectations with little effort.
Port: Exactly! To provide a much more suitable and safer viewing experience, many atlesian scientists courtesy of our beloved General Ironwood have made numerable upgrades to this arena allowing us to observe this future spectacle of a match at the absolute peak of viewing comfortability!
As if completely on cue, the force-field set around the tournament arena starts the process of strengthening itself with the visual indicator of the upgrade being another force-field quickly forming around the first one.
