-"oh, where could he be? You fucking dumbass."

Levitus attacks the bed where Ezra was hiding and he is thrown out of the roof of the house into a bush, he gets injured, on top of his already-established injuries, but he still manages to wiggle himself out and run off into the forest with Levitus hot on his trail, but no matter how fast he ran she still managed to catch him, he sees her apear from one of the trees, trying to catch him off guard and capture him, he sees her before she does so and he runs off into the other direction.

-"you can't escape me, i hear everything~" says a sweet voice in front of him

Levitus apears in the same manner as before and grabs his throat tightly but loosely enough so he could breathe.

-"you are mine now! Finally, at last you are mine!"

-"let go of him!" a shout can be heard behind them

-"Abena Sar" Ezra looks at both of them with a confused look.

-"oh, forgive me, i must have been using the wrong name, Abena Khapesh." she says tauntingly

-"you know that is my dead name!"

-"oh, come on! Surely you didn't think you could abandon a name with such a background! The Khapesh clan? One of the great noble clans? Foolish of you to think after lord Khapesh's death you could just change your name and abandon your role! Coward!"

-"let Ezra go and you won't be hurt!"

She throws Ezra to the ground, "As if you could ever hurt me!" she says getting ready for battle.

-"you do not want this fight..."

-"why? Cus' you trained with the late grandmaster Khapesh? His fighting style was as rusty as an old man's can be!"

Now enraged, Abena launches at her with the full force of her sword, elegant strikes, like the moons everlasting glow filled the forest, with each strike the attacks become more difficult to read and evade but Levitus does so perfectly, enraging Abena even more, Levitus gets tired of constant evasion and dodging so she creates a sword that turns from pure ice into metal. She unleashes an array of attacks that Abena barely blocks and is thrown off balance, Abena roars "catena!" in an attempt to defend herself from an attack that would have killed her.

Meanwhile ezra is trying to run away while they are busy in battle and gets frozen by Levitus' attack, but the chains from Abena's spell take her off guard and cut her arm off.

-"how dare you...!" she says "i will cut you in half!"

Levitus lunges at her landing a kick to Abena's plexus throwing her across the stone road into a different part of the forest, knocking out her air as well. But Abena stands up nonetheless and tries to get into a fighting position, she does so but the position is loosely off, even a person with no battle knowledge could see its wrong but couldn't pin-point why exactly its wrong, Levitus can see that and she gets excited knowing she injured a strong opponent. She moves her left leg forward and twists her foot creating an ice wall that gets bigger as it gets closer to Abena, she dodges, rolling out of the way. in the blink of an eye icy spikes, hundreds of them, fly at abena.

-"aegis." she summons a giant shield that blocks all the projectiles and still remains even after the attacks.

Levitus smirks and apears behind her, trying to stab her in the back, she blocks and counter attacks but misses by a lot.

-"this is getting annoying!" only now, Levitus takes off her silver-white coat which was torn from Abena's attacks, the true battle begins.

Levitus dashes multiple times around Abena in a sircular motion, disorienting her.

-"vulnus!" the doctor spins creating an ever-growing slash of manna that nearly cuts Levitus in half and wounds her deeply.

She moves away from Levitus, and they stand across each other, speaking no word nor moving a muscle, until the doctor breaks the silence.

-"you're a principle?"

-"the principle of emotion, yes, why do you ask?"

-"so i could know who i'm dealing with. Based off the previous principles i can tell your level of power based off the concept you have been given, the more control you have over the concept the higher your power is. You, i'm afraid, are the furthest from emotion, being given the concept you're furthest from can only mean one thing..."

-"shut up! Enough of this idle chat! I'll make you suffer for your crimes!"

The skin on Levitus' cut arm begins to slowly grow and reform, and so does the bone, bringing great pain to Levitus and making a bloody, gory mess.

-"i will make you regret defying me!"
