John POV

Koda: "Just us."

He becomes a being of fire.

Koda: "Ready?"

I hold out my hand. At first there's nothing.

Koda: "What-"

A sonic boom fills the air. My blade then flies into my hand.

I grip the handle readying myself

I grip the handle readying myself.

John: "Get ready."

Koda: "Bring it."

I zip to him slashing my blade. It however goes right through him.

Koda: "That didn't work."

I aim my free hand at Koda's face. A blast is fired pushing him back. 

Koda: "How!?!?"

John: "I can manipulate matter itself. There's nothing I can't do."

My sword vibrates beyond the speed of light. With a swing I cut Koda's chest drawing blood.

Koda: "That hurt!!!"

He flings fireballs at me. I simply welcome them. My flesh is burned being stripped all the way down to the bone. When the last fireball hits me I look at Koda to see him smiling.

Koda: "You're finished."

I remain stoic. His face changes to shock as my flesh rebuilds itself. Pretty soon there's no damage at all. Koda screams in anger rushing towards me. I twist past his attacks which just makes him angrier. 

Koda: "Smug asshole."

One attack manages to impale my chest. His fire consumes me from the inside out. After a trip to the blank space I return refreshed.

Koda: "Why won't you die!?!?!"

John: "My power keeps me from dying. The only thing that can kill me is a sword. A sword that you do not possess."

I relax my body. 

John: "Time I ended this little scuffle."

My ascended king form breaks free. My right side is coated in fire. Meanwhile my left is bathed in light. My light and fire wings puff out. My half fire and half light crown then appears completing my power up.

John: "Ready?"

I ram my blade into the ground raising my fists. 

John: "Here I come."

Near instantly I have Koda by the throat. He tries to punch me but I catch his hand. I force him back to normal before throwing him to the ground. He tries to crawl away. I walk after him but cough. Looking at my hand I see blood. 

John: *internally* "Gotta end this quickly."

I pin Koda down with my foot.

John: "You're finished."

Koda: "I will not fail my master!!"

He lunges at me. I place my finger on his forehead.

John: "You've lost."

I take away all of his power leaving him mortal. With him taken care of I revert to normal emitting a heavy sigh.

John: "Gonna feel that in the morning."

I turn around as the others arrive.

Iron: "You win already?"

John: "Yep."

Koda: "You haven't won yet."
