*The scene opens with Zack and Darron in the middle of the street surrounded by buildings on both sides.*

Darron: You sure you wanna fight me here? Last person to fight me near a building didn't make it out too well.

Zack: I'm sure whoever it was didn't go down easy though.

Darron: Well Penrose always was a stubborn man.

(Zack): Penrose? How did he lose to this guy? If that's true I gotta really watch out then.

Zack: Sounds to me like it wasn't a fair fight to begin with.

Darron: Nothing in life is! Now take this!

*Darron picks up a handful of rocks off of the ground and throws them all towards Zack. Zack attempts to block his face but the rocks break into dust around his arms, leading him to cough and rub his eyes.*.

(Zack): Fuck I can't see.

*Darron then uses Stealing Society on the ground again and it begins to sink underneath Zack as he is still rubbing his eyes.*

(Zack): Fuck! Fuck! I can't see the holes. I can't see where I can touch! What should I do? I know!

*Zack uses Sundial on his eyes and rewinds them to before they had dust in them before looking down to the ground and seeing a crack opening up right underneath his foot.*

(Zack): Just in time!

*Zack reaches down with Sundial and touches the ground beneath him, the cracks begin to retract as Darron proceeds to move closer.*

Darron: Eventually you're gonna tire out!

Zack: Not against you, asshole!

*Zack looks at Darron and sees that he's gotten closer with these few attacks.*

(Zack): Shit! He's closing in on me. I gotta keep him at a distance here. He'll tire out before I do.

*Zack reaches down to the ground and activates Sundial. He sets it to forwards looks back towards Darron*

(Zack): He's in the field of cracks that he caused earlier. If I set the ground forward then the cracks should open up right beneath him.

*The cracks in the ground reappear and begin opening up underneath Darron. Darron dodges the holes and proceeds to continue dodging backwards.*

Darron: Got anything original?

Zack: Well when someone else gives you a sure-fire way to beat the other person I figure you should use it.

Darron: You really think you can beat me with my own attacks?

Zack: I'm hoping so.

Darron: You'd be wise to do away with hope altogether, it won't help you here!

(Zack): Maybe not, but I still managed to make him back up. I gotta go on the offensive to keep him that way.

*Darron throws another handful of rocks at Zack. This time Zack closes his eyes and mouth as the rocks break in front of him and then opens his eyes to see Darron heading into an alleyway to the right.*

(Zack): Shit! I can't see where his attacks come from if he's behind something. Is that what he's planning?

*Zack runs after Darron and enters the same alleyway. He looks down the path but sees no trace of Darron anywhere.*

(Zack): Is this the wrong alley? Where did he go?

*Suddenly the walls on the buildings to the side of Zack begin cracking, and pieces of debris begin falling onto Zack knocking him to the ground.*
