Nur vs Tamun...

"I don't know. Do I look angry?"

The Nova repeated, as she pressed down with her entire might, and sank her fist into the prince's arm, digging him further into the ground. She glared at him, with malice in response to the question, then threw another strike.

However, to the prince it seemed as though she was switching to her left fist, but he was greeted with a right kick to jaw instead. Sending him hurdling back, as he tried to get a grip on reality.

He glanced back at her, seeing the image of her, mirage again, as she homed in for another strike. To her shock though, he caught her fist, as he switched into first gear.

"I've seen stuff like this before. Come on, show me something new!" He yelled, as he spun her around in a quick blur of electricity and used the momentum to throw her into a building, as he realized, that she was trying to take him out of the city.

People screamed, adding to the chaos of alarms blaring, and along with fire sprinklers going off. The city was on lockdown, but some businesses could not afford to close, risking the lives of their employees.

Nur could feel hundreds of people trapped below and above her, as she got up. She panicked at first wondering what to prioritize. However she didn't have much time to think, as she instinctively frosted over both of her arms and raised them, just as Tamun crashed through several levels below her and directly up into her.

Taking her along with, all the way to the top. She ignored her defences and manifested hardened domes of ice, shielding the civilians within the collapsing building and surroundings. Each dome, descended down safely away and melted apart, as the people quickly glanced back up, to watch the Nova get pummeled further upwards into the sky.

The prince wrapped up his assault, by gathering an immense amount of electricity into his fist and struck her with enough force to send her into the stratosphere.

She forcefully stopped herself from going any further, sensing little to no air left around her. The whiplash, brought forth an immense amount of pain, as she started to find it hard to breathe.

'He's still too fast. How can I keep up with him.' She thought to herself, as she struggled to think of a way to win.

A voice within her surprised her, but she quickly knew who it was. "Listen to the air. Hear it, feel it."

'Listen to it?' She questioned. There was almost none left and as her vision began to daze, she realized she had seconds left.

Quickly, she calmed herself down, closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Then exhaled, as her breathe created a turbulent dome of wind, gathering together, as much of the oxygen that was left in her surrounding area.

She finally opened her eyes, fixing the ice glass eye, which cracked from the impact. Although she could only see in black and white through it, she clearly took in the mesmerizing view of Earth, from space.

It felt surreal and she felt at peace, until the prince appeared before her in a flash of electricity. Brandishing an electrically charged sword, similar to the photonic swords Sarah designed.

However instead of it remaining in a controlled plasma shape, he charged it with an immense amount of energy, and allowed it to flow with his will. Resulting in a jagged white and blue electric sword, towering at nearly his height.

"It's beautiful." Nur reached out, looking right past him, as he silhouetted within Earth's frame.

"What my sword?" He asked surprised, but not shocked, as he arrogantly looked it over and changed its shape at will.

The Nova gritted her teeth, then smiled. "No, you're just ruining the view." She replied, as she reached her hands down to her sides and drawed her daggers, then covered the blades in coats of water, before condensing it with enough heat to turn the water into black ice. "Haze: Black Blades."

Electricity had started to crackle around it, from the build up in their vicinity, along with the amount of energy she was putting into it. Tamun laughed, then lunged at her and struck with his entire might, as she blocked it by crossing both of her daggers.

She struggled to maintain her position, as to not get pushed further out into space, yet it seemed as though the prince was enjoying this situation. "What do you think you're laughing about?!" She asked angrily, then forced air, to tornado around her arms and legs, to aid her speed. "Haze: Wind Spirit."

The prince was shocked and confused, as he slowly started to recoil from each of her strikes. It was beginning to take all he could, just to keep up with her. 'How does she keep getting stronger?'

Within the next few seconds, he parried a three strike combo, hitting him with blasts of hot air, he couldn't avoid, then prepared for a final dual wield assault coming from above him. "Haze: Hawa Ki Talwar!"

He braced as he was pushed back down into atmosphere. Feeling blistering cuts, ripping across his body. The clouds below him split, as pain greeted him in a delayed shock.

"Raaahhhh!!" He screamed, angrily out bursting a shock full of energy. He remained still as unhinged as ever. Many thoughts raced across his mind, but he knew it would all be over after his next attack.

A large mass of metal rubble, rose out from down below and nestled on the clouds, unifying the separating ones back together. Then electrically welded into a large ring with a diameter of 1km, as it started to surge large amounts of electricity and lightning, towards the center.

A smirk ran across Tamun's face as he glanced back at her. "Mortal, you think you can survive this?" He raised us right palm up, pointing his sword at her, as she tried to catch her breath. "I know how to amplify my power too."

The ring of metal started to heat up, as it spun white-hot and seemingly reached its capacity. Nur stared at it, scared for a moment as she didn't know what she could do to stop it or if she should dodge. However the way it was designed, made her realize that there wasn't a safe enough distance, that she could get to.

She took a deep breath and thought for a moment, then sheathed her daggers and raised her left palm to the sky. A thin film of ice filled out into a dome the size of a state. Then condensed, as it gathered all of the moisture, cold and gases that was left around her, before she heated it over thousands of degrees and condensed it to an unfathomable pressure.

If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

Resulting in a spinning black, basketball-ball sized sphere of ice, denser diamonds, containing a violent shard tornado of diamonds and black ice. A heat wave had started to blur out the vision of the Nova, to the prince. He glanced at his spinning ring as it started to shake slightly and break apart, from the gravity of Nur's sphere.

He gritted his teeth angrily, as he shook away any fear, that might've started to creep up and signalled the ring to fire. "Divine Revolution!"

The ring glowed from white to purple, as the prince poured in all of his might, then shot an inescapable, violet beam of energy towards the Nova. Rippling loud thunder, shockwaves and tides below, as the population rushed to safety.

Nur, smiled as for the first time ever, in the face of death, she felt no fear. "Frost: Ionic Blast!"

The black sphere, instantly grew back to about twice her size, now with a dark blue ring, becoming the exit as it shattered open. Releasing a blistering blast of air, black ice and diamonds, which magnificently collided with the prince's attack.

The electric beam boomed on, making the prince laugh as he celebrated the end of the Nova. Too early and leaving him in shock, as the beam dispersed, along with metal ring beside him, crumpling in together, as they both were drawn in to the ionic beam.

Before he was struck with the immense force, he pulled back some of the metal rubble, to form a makeshift shield, reinforced with all of the electricity he could muster. Only a moment had passed by, but his feet had managed to touch down on the earth, as the rest of his surroundings were erased way, in a blazing, black hurricane of ice.

He yelled out to the wind, as he refused to die, then everything suddenly stopped. Carefully, he parted, his moltened barrier, which had barely held on and was in tatters, to see her floating above him. He felt her glare, as if he was being judged.

That moment seemed to be his boiling point, as lightning indiscriminately started to pour down around the city, with his rage. Then stopped and started to build up within the clouds as he floated to her eye level.

"You got stronger to protect them, but you already failed to save the ones I gave mercy to earlier. Why won't you let me do the same to you?" He reached his hand out longingly, as if he was in reach of something he wanted but couldn't get.

Suddenly, his arm seemingly blew up, as Nur raised one palm towards him. Another condensed shard of black ice, manifested in front of her, as her reply.

He gritted his teeth and absolutely lost it. "I am Tamun the -- Prince of Ceria! I will discover every mortal death possible and gift the worst to my sworn prey!"

He reached his hands out to his sides as the clouds above the city, darkened black and ominously surged rows of constant lightning through them. People in the city and surrounding areas, looked up at the sky, feeling the end approaching.

"Wrath of the Nimbus Sovereign!" Tamun yelled out loud, and completely let loose.

Millions of violet lightning strikes, began to take shape and discharged, preparing to touchdown. However the residents of the city started to notice an unusual phenomenon occuring across the sky.

It had started to rain heavily, but every drop seemingly stopped at the height of the tallest buildings. The bottom surface froze over, holding the reservoir of water, as a pillar of black ice, snaked it's way down from it, deep into the ground. Creating a massive ceiling of water, as it shielded everything below.

"Flow: Aqua Sky!" The Nova yelled, whilst clutching her fist high above her, at the same moment she felt a flying electric strike, coming from the prince's direction. Billions of lightning bolts, struck the floating reservoir and fizzed out, as they were redirected into the ground, causing an underground explosion.

Nur quickly manifested a black barrier of ice right in front of her, shielding herself from the strike at the last second, as it separated the skyline and the ground below her. It ate deep into her barrier, but stopped, within an inch from reaching her. The ice, emanated static electricity, as it recoiled from the impact, however the Nova, remained strong and separated, the barrier at the split, the strike made, to stare the prince down.

He was furious. Anger visible, as eyes became bloodshot. "You still oppose me!"

The Nova shook her head, tired of all of his noise. Her side effects, were unbearable at this point. Pain seared her body, like hot wires being pulled through her. Her hands had started to crack, along with other rupturing lines, stinging her with the aid of frost hindering her body's movement.

Yet, she smiled. "What's funny to me, is how you're so obsessed with death, and don't expect to experience it yourself... Here, why don't we hear about it, from the people you've killed.

On cue, she relaxed her hands and started rotating her arms wide over each other, in a flowing motion. At the same time, blood from corpses the siblings had left scattered across the city, had started to rise. Into the sky, as it tinted red, then she stopped and reached her hand out towards him.

She didn't think much on what she was doing, she just wanted to make him suffer in the worst way possible. "This is for Maria."

Tamun's eyes grew wide. Fear struck him unlike ever before, as he felt imminent death, awaiting him. He could feel her putting everything she had into it and some more at the risk of her life.

She had forced him to use up a dangerous amount of his life's reserves, which made running no longer possible. The only option he had left was taking her out first, before she could finish him.

As the Nova pointed her palm at him, signalling her attack, he threw his hands up and called forth a last ditch effort. A precision lightning strike, carrying the weight of the sky, as the prince maniacally laughed his heart out. There was no way he could be defeated.

However Nur, without taking his eyes off him, manifested an umbrella of black ice above her. Which still failed to stop it, but she didn't flinch, instead she raised her left arm above her, covered in ionic ice and took the violet lightning strike head on.

Leaving him stunned as the droplets of blood surrounded and imprisoned him, pooling together into a dark red dome. Even in his current situation, he didn't let up his strike, but the dread of reality had started to seep in.

Frantically he looked around him, seeing the faces of the people they had murdered during the conquest. Glaring, as they appeared to start reaching for him and bubble up, a with the temperature of the dome rising to the boiling point.

As unreal as he heard it to be, he noticed himself looking back on his life and how he had lived it. The memory that stood out the most, was of him finding his sister, Kyrianna limbless, when they were young.

She was screaming, as he found another one of his siblings nearby, with a white artistic mask over her face, laughing in a sadistic manner. Kyrianna was the one sibling he had any care for and seeing her in that state devastated him. However, the way his masked sibling was enjoying the pain she was putting her through, was unimaginable to him.

He wondered what was going through her mind. What emotion did she have at that exact moment? For the rest of his years, he continued searching for the answer, all so he could truly take it in, when he got his revenge back on her. Just as he had promised his sister that day, as he put her back together.

However, he now felt he could no longer keep that promise. Razor frozen, iron blades, manifested out of the blood dome in millions and surrounded him, spinning at hypersonic speed. It was pitch dark, but he could still feel the Nova's eyes on him.

"I'm not going to remember you after this. Suffer..." Nur said as she clutched her right hand in front of her. "Flow: Blood Blending!"

Lingering Iko from those that had died, climbed over each other to keep him in place, while each razor, took their turn, ripping him apart. The heat was unbearable and beginning to flay his skin.

He could still feel her glaring at him through the dome, then at last, he let up his attack, accepting defeat. His mind had started to fade, but Kyrianna popped into his mind once more, as he started to choke on the contents of the dome.

"Kyri, I'm sorry I couldn't do it, but... There might be someone who can...." He thought, as the last molecules of him, dissolved within the dome, then imploded apart. Raining dark red blood everywhere and unnaturally avoiding the Nova as she looked up at the sky.

Frostbite had taken over her body as her right arm shattered into pieces, along with her temporary ice eye. Her body temperature was at the lowest it had ever been, and she was beginning to feel drowsy.

However, despite all of the pain, only one thing crossed her mind. "Zaiden, Hector.... Maria." She whispered. "I'm sorry I couldn't protect you."
