Jaune Arc the Key Barer

It's a Struggle! pt2

*Jaune pov*

Once the match was over Xemnas walked off without a word as Axel took his place. "*deep breath* alright, he's a mid to short range fighter, and has master control of fire, my best bet is to have Aero redirecting the flames." I mumbled as I walked onto the stage.

"Hey names Axel, got it memorized?" Axel introduced himself tapping his head with his index finger.

"I'm Jaune, and good luck." I said keeping it short as to keep focus.

"ah short and simple, I like it.  But you won't be winning this round kid, even with a keyblade." Axel said summoning his chakrams in a burst of fire.

"we'll see about that." I summoned Kingdom Key and getting into position when Phil fired off a starting pistol. "SONIC RAVE!" I shout blitzing past Axel before slamming Kingdom key into his back before shifting and launching into a flurry of attacks knocking Axel around the Arena. "STRIKE RAID!" I hurl kingdom key at the red head knocking him closer to the edge before stopping when the temperature started to rise in an unnatural way.

"Ok, you got the jump on me, and I'll admit I was a bit of an idiot for underestimating you..... But now it's time to TURN UP THE HEAT!" Axel roared as the Arena was surrounded by a wall of fire. "Take this!" Axel threw his chakrams as they ignited getting close to me leaving a trail of fire.

Quickly defending myself by knocking them aside and thinking I was safe when I felt something coming. Jumping back I narrowly avoided one of the chakrams I blocked but earning a large cut on my arm making it bleed quite a bit. "Damn it!" I growl before raising Kingdom key. "HEAL!" I shout as my body glowed a light green hue closing the wounds and recovering some stamina. "alright no more mr. Nice guy!" I shout as I dismiss Kingdom Key and swapping to Arcs Light and blitzing forward towards the red haired fire user.

"Come at me!" Axel declared as his weapons returned to his hands before charging at me.

Reaching the center we clashed caught in a deadlock as he tried to slash down while I met him half way blocking both chakrams. 'Damn it! He's stronger then me, but I'm faster.' I mentally berate myself for being stupid and rushing in as I felt myself being pushed back.

"Come on kid. I thought you key users were tougher then this." Axel declared as I had recently learned about others like me.

"Alright you want me to go all out? Fine then!" I dismiss Arcs light causing Axel to stumble forwards as I called Spell binder and fired of back to back blizzard spells shooting out twelve shards of ice.

"Shit!" Axel shouts as he was pelted by the ice shards with two of them penetrating his left arm and one in his right leg. "Damn that hurts!" Axel groans as he lights himself on fire melting the ice and sealing the wounds. Once the flames were gone he dropped his left chakram signaling his arm was out of commission or at least disabled for now.

"Hey Axel, give up?" I ask hoping he would just walk off.

"hmmm not a bad idea. But I'll have to pass, my boss wouldn't like it if I just walked off when i should have won." Axel stated as he got back up although a bit shaky before the right leg gave out forcing him onto his knee. "Shit, that ice must have cut something." Axel grumbled as he tried to catch his breath.

"Fine then it, I'll just have to knock you out." I dismissed Spell binder and brought back Arcs light holding it a reverse grip and blitzing past Axel swinging my keyblade as I did leaving him speechless as his eyes rolled back and falling forward onto the ground.

"AND THE WINNER BY KNOCK OUT IS JAUNE ARC!" Phil announced as I walked off the stage.

"Jaune!" I herd Amber yell as I took the last step before jumping at me and pulling me into a hug. "You made it to the finales, I wonder who....." "AND THE WINNER BY KNOCK OUT IS XEMNAS!" Phil announced as I spun around only to see Tifa laying on the ground her clothes releasing smoke like she was hit by something extremely hot. "TIFA!" I could hear cloud yell before rushing into the Arena and picking her head up looking her over for any injuries before carrying her off the stage.
