3:00pm

"come on babe!" i cheer. veda and her circle each other. "kick her ass!"

"veda's had some years on june," gray tells me, as he watches the scene as well.

"june's been practicing. she doesn't want to keep losing anymore. i believe in her. besides, her strength is her bow and arrow right now. she's still trying to learn through her powers."

veda teleports behind june.

"boo," veda chuckles.

june spins around and veda teleports again, back on the side she originated from. june groans and throws her hand out toward veda, stopping her in her tracks.

she holds her in place. v fights for her control, lowering her head slowly, staring intently at june. my girlfriend starts to whimper in pain, trying to keep control while simultaneously losing it.

"fight babe," i whisper to myself, biting my nails.

june throws her other hand up as well, but v inevitably gets june to release her.

i sigh.

"FALL," she tells june and i watch as she can't help but obey.

veda blows at june, a gust of wind picking up, making june tumble a few feet away.

"get up baby!" i scream at her, as she just lays there.

"come on june!" ray shouts next to me, invested in the altercation as well.

get up june. don't let her win again.

veda walks over to june's body and crouchs down next to her.

june turns invisible and veda claps, standing.

"alright! this is what i love to see!" she praises, looking around. "come out, come out wherever you ar-" june becomes visible again, punching v in the mouth. v chuckles, it turning into tsk-ing by the end of it. "come on wesley. you had every opportunity."

v closes her eyes and the dust around her begins to kick up, swirling around her. she holds her arms out to the sides of her and begins to levitate, the dirt and dust collecting together in a dirt tornado around v.

the tornado propels forward heading towards june and us.

a green shield stops the impact of the audience that was watching.

not sure i can say the same about june.

she screams in agony.

"MY EYES!"

alex release his shield after the dust settles and i rush to my girl.

"you okay lovebug?" i ask her, crouching next to her on her knees clutching her eyes.

"i need to rinse my eyes. i can't see," she tells me, her voice wavering- trying not to cry.

v comes back back down from her air journey and joins us.

"shit v. you amaze me everytime," ray praises as i lift juniper up. "june, that was so much better! i'm so proud of you. you're improving so much!"

"i can't see," june deadpans, clearly upset.

"you had an upper hand, and you weren't confident with it, but i see you fighting that. you're strengthening. really fast."

"i try to tell her that and she won't believe me," i tell ray.

"you have fight young grasshopper. never lose that," v tells june.

"thank you," she smiles, her eyes still pinched closed.

"come on love. let's get you to some water," i say and lead her to our water bucket. i help splash water on her face.

"she's too strong," june finally says, in a hushed tone.

"you're strong too. she has an advantage. over everyone," i explain.

"i just want to beat her one time seph. once."

"and you will. when the time is right."

"fine," she grumbles.

"patience my dear. it's important."

"ray can barely take her down. what happens when she surpasses ray? or betrays us?"

"then it'll be six on one. and i doubt she'd be able to take all of us," i explain.

she'd stand no chance.

"yeah. we'll see," she says, eyeing ray and v laughing.

we will.
