The planning took less than 30 mins as it was the pretty simple way going to happen as we have all trained to fight our whole lives, so we know the drill. once we had the main plan down we started showing what we could do and get acquainted batter so we could work better. we learnt each overs fighting style and weapons (well I learnt hers as no one knows my weapon but Leo, but I did say I might use it during the battle). when the time came to fight we were mostly ready, all we needed to do was get into our fighting clothes. A black vest, loose tracks, and a black hooded cloak for me and leather jacket/skirt with stockings for Gabbi (most powers don't wear armour as our powers are our armour). Gabbi brandished her ruby katana checked the blade and holstered it on her back. I put gloves on.
We entered the Collosium, first, you bow to your opponent and shake hands as a sign of etiquette, then you decide what style your side of the battleground is going to be. I and Gabbi picked the Forest whilst Leo and Sam picked the Volcano. Damn. I and Gabbi had made our plan to counter the Mountain Range which consisted of high peaks, canyons, caves and no flat areas, whilst the Volcano had lots of flat plains, caves and canyons full of lava and, of course, a giant pit of FUCKING LAVA with a tiny rope bridge on top. The ground around us suddenly shifted and morphed into a forest and the same happened on the over side into a volcano. The flag appeared in front of us and we went off to find the best place to hide it. Inside a hollow tree with a tiny entrance? Perfect.
A mighty sounding horn went off to signify the start of the match. It was on. Gabbi zoomed off with a massive, SHWOOOOOSH. leaving me to sprint... or so she thought. I got to the side of the Collosium and right onto the edge of the volcano, I didn't feel the heat from it just then but when I cross the line it will hit me. I could see Sam and Gabbi fighting but I couldn't see Leo anywhere. Sam had her rapier out and was strapping and jumping around Gabbi who, very gracefully, was blocking her blows and still getting hits in whilst spinning on the spot. I guessed Leo would be building some anti-power protection for the area around the flag so all I had to do was listen for an explosion. BOOM. Oh. there we go I sprinted past the line, a wave of scorching heat hitting me all at once but I didn't stop. I kept sprinting up the side of the volcano and hid behind a rock. sure enough, Leo was mumbling to himself about how he needed to stop me from altering the machine by adding an anti-power mode... He still hadn't perfected the code for it though so I know I was safe Some more sparks flue and more bangs went off, I made a rock go above Leo's head and let it fall. He jumped and span so fast he was like the end of a whip. I was still quicker I punched him in the gut and threw him over my shoulder, he lade dazed on the floor for about 5 seconds before springing up and taking out is throwing swords. We stood there staring each over down before he through his first sword which I easily deflected with my wrist and grabbed with my right hand pulling him towards me and kneeing him in the neck, winding him. I easily got past the unfinished machine and onto the rope bridge, I walked across to the flag, grabbed it and turned around to see Gabbi and Leo fighting. As expected from Gabbi's speed Leo was soon on the floor but as I was reaching the end Leo through a sword at the ropes cutting them making the bridge fall, I quietly threw the flag to Gabbi but I fell into the lava.
The lava hit me hard flooding my ears burning my skin. Gabbi's screams died out quickly, as did the light and my consciousness.
