Explosions lit up the the pitch-dark night, as the two zigzagged across the field. Trading blows for blow and drawing blood, but not letting up.

Ataron manifested a detailed clone of himself, made out of blue fire, to break the distance, realizing that Osei was getting an advantage. The clone charged at the Nova and manifested a flaming sword out of thin air.

Volleys of energy appeared around him, as he launched them towards it, erupting a massive explosion, however, the clone continued, beaming out of the smoke.

Ataron smirked as his fingers danced in the air, facing Osei. "Titan's Gladiator."

The Nova met the clone's charge, reinforcing his sword with electricity and sending light bursts to throw it off. Its sword broke in half, as he took its head off, however he felt agonizing pain, forcing him to look over and see his own arm falling down below.

The clone had manifested the sword once again with its remaining strength, as it continued its strike. Osei grimaced from the pain, but quickly blasted the clone, out of existence. He cauterized his arm stub, quickly, without losing eye contact with the prince. Five more, flame clones appeared in front of him, armed and ready to charge.

Osei grinned. The battle high kept him awake. "Always using tricks in battle, aren't you?"

Ataron gave him a smug smile."The smartest are usually the ones to survive."

Electricity crackled and converged in front of Osei, as five clones made out of electricity, resembling warriors of Rennaya manifested themselves guarding him. "Is that right? What makes you think, you're part of that group."

Ataron chuckled lightly, raising his right palm towards Osei. "What other group is there?"

The clones charged at each other, engaging in a violent and bright battle in the sky. Ataron let loose a beam of blue fire, racing for Osei.

However, he sidestepped in midair to avoid the beam by inches, then proceeded to return an energy wave of his own. Leaving the prince to summon a flame barrier in front of him, deciding to take it head-on. He made the barrier larger, then flanked to use it as a distraction.

Osei, stopped his attack, noticing Ataron's movements, and threw his sword towards the sky. Then he pulled out his dagger from his belt and formed a replica, with an arm out of electricity. Constantly maintaining them, as it drained more energy out of him.

He launched himself through the clones fighting each other to the death, towards Ataron's last known presence. An electric armour manifested over him, as he crashed through the barrier, catching the prince by surprise.

Instinctively he still managed to block Osei's charge and the next series of blows that the Nova threw at him. He grinned, laughing as he was about to blast him at point blank range when a sword sunk through his skull with a quick crack, piloted by a large lightning strike.

His vision cracked in his right eye and the other completely disappeared, as billions of volts surged through him. Taking advantage of his trap, Osei quickly threw both of his daggers into the prince's chest, then flipped 180° to kick him back down to the Earth from the hilt of his sword, stuck in his head. He reached his palm out, as his sword dislodged itself from Ataron's head before he hit the ground.

Ataron felt thousands of years of his life leaving him, as his body slowly reformed back to normal. He tried getting back up, however, Osei landed, sword first into his gut, followed by the largest lightning strike he could muster. Erupting a massive shockwave explosion, felt in cities across Australia.

A massive flame barrier erupted out of him, forcing Osei to make some distance. His knees gave way, as a low seizure started to settle in. Osei gritted his teeth, while foam started to build up, on the sides of his mouth.

His electric arm dissipated and the blue veins coursing all over his body started to flicker. He was barely able to maintain the new gear, reaching his limit.

Ataron rose and flew slowly out of his crater. Furious, with his eyes still out of place and a massive gaping hole in his stomach.

The last of Osei's clones, charged Ataron some stabbing him in the back, but he shrugged it off and burned them all away with the air around him. "I won't forgive you!"

Flames burst out of him, raising the temperature in their vicinity, drastically high. He placed his hand out and in seconds a massive sphere of blue fire manifested in front of him, condensing in rapid intervals and rotating at incredible speeds.

Osei placed his hands out trying to match the same power, by draining all of the energy in any living creature as far as he could reach, thanks to his new Nova suit. His hands trembled, and his fingers began to curl. The seizures were hindering him, faster than he had anticipated

He shook his head, reminding himself, of who he was up against, then forced control of his body. A massive blue sphere of electricity, swirled violently in front of him, as thousands of lightning strikes amplified it and condensed it further.

His blue eyes glowed, as the glowing, even streaks of silver hair returned. His cobalt blue veins coursed like electric circuits throughout his body. The two looked at each other, knowing this would be the end.

"Icarus's Star!"

"Raeiqa Core!"

Their spheres shattered forth, like thunder, as the the two beams collided, rippling immense shockwaves throughout the continent. Osei grunted, as his feet sunk deep into the ground, while a crater formed around him.

Ataron pushed back, with his full might. He could not accept losing to a Rennayan, a lost people they had vanquished long ago. He asked himself over and over, how he could be losing so much life, in one battle against a lesser creature. However, no answer could satisfy him.

His only relief was looking forward to seeing Osei dead, right now. After a long moment of constant energy being poured in, the power struggle resulted in an explosive draw.

Osei dropped to his knees, as foam spilled out of his mouth and his body shivered from uncontrollable seizures in random intervals. Ataron descended down. Both of their eyes locked. Then he walked forward, with each step, crumbling down until all there was, were blood and metal piled up in front of Osei, with the prince's core on top, like a cherry.

Osei looked down at the pile, feeling no sign of Ataron's life energy. He fell over, falling asleep with a smile of victory.

Back on the outskirts of London...

"You've even taken up a more annoying persona. Are you really trying to be a fool, to the bitter end?" Tasaria asked, as her body had just finished restoring itself back to normal.

Sora smirked at her words, then started stretching. "Part of me still remembers what you've done to us 'big sis'. I think it's time to send you back to Hell... But first... Let's switch our venue. I really don't want to damage our garden, if you get what I mean."

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

Tasaria crossed her arms. "Do as you wish."

The air around Sora cracked lightly, as she disappeared from the spot she was standing on and appeared with one hand on the back of Tasaria's shoulder. Then, the air around them cracked once more, but louder. Seconds later, in the blink of an eye, they disappeared off the face of the planet and reappeared on the Moon.

Specifically, a part Sarah had just begun Terraforming and constructing. Due to Beyond's expansion and several investments made by several companies around the world and allies. She had managed to extend the Terraforma's atmosphere to reach the entire Moon, for research purposes.

The princess unsheathed her sword in quick motion, causing slight gusts of wind with each swing, as she settled into a stance. "Till this day, I do not understand why Father gave you that ability. Not many of our siblings were granted it, yet they've all conquered worlds or risen in higher standings within the family. Yet, what have you done instead?"

Sora smiled, as she reached into her belt, remembering a faint memory from one of her halves. She pulled out a black and blue sword hilt, with no blade. "Kinect: Photon Sword."

The sword hilt lit up, bursting out a blue laser beam and condensing it into a sword shape. A retractable versilium blade, sprung out to complete it. Half versillium, half plasma. She examined her sword, with awe for a moment then looked back at Tasaria.

"I'm not sure why you care so much about achievements and power. I'm fine with just being a hero. If you don't like it, you can kindly leave, but..." She said, swinging her sword to her side, then leaped to intercept Tasaria's charge.

Their swords collided in midair, unleashing a devastating shockwave resounding for several kilometres. The princess reinforced her strike with magma and blue fire condensed as a coat on her sword. While Sora matched her strength with telekinetic force.

She gave Tasaria a deadly grin. "I'm sure you won't leave without a good beating."

Tasaria laughed out loud as they continued, to stab and strike at each other, with killing force. "If anyone's going to get a good beating, it's you. That form will only last you what? Twenty? Thirty minutes? I'll just have to wear you out till then, then kill that bitch the moment she coughs up your core-"

She paused to dodge a swing for her head and didn't hesitate to stab at her enemy's gut. "Then I will take your core back and torture you while killing off those little insects crawling on that blue planet... Prolonging things will only make things more difficult Nirro."

Sora jumped back to dodge the strike. "Hmph, let's see you try. Come on then." She said, beckoning her forth, with her left hand.

Tasaria smiled, then lunged at her and swung fast, while Sora concentrated force to aid her speed. Then, twirled around to raise her foot high enough and stomped Tasaria's sword hand into the ground, while aiming for her head once more.

The princess ducked, then followed up by boosting her feet to kick her in the gut and sent Sora flying. She was winded for a moment but recovered midflight and teleported.

Reappearing under Tasaria and kicking her with incredible force into the air. She reappeared once more, with the air cracking around them and kicked her flying out of the Moon's atmosphere.

"Good luck in space!" She yelled out after her.

Tasaria held her breath and heated herself up, to keep herself warm, then boosted herself back through the atmosphere and at Sora, punching a forcefield protecting her. "Sovereign's Wrath!" She yelled as a massive wave of blue fire burst out of Tasaria's fist, blasting her down to the surface of the Moon.

Sora held on as the beam formed a massive hole all around her, digging deep into the moon.

Moon rocks floated towards Tasaria and molted into a core merging with her attack while increasing the overall heat even further. Then she concentrated it into a white and blue flaming beam of carnage, aiming to incinerate her enemy.

Lava marks, ran down her body branching out in streams, as she poured in more energy. She pressed on, for a bit, then stopped and descended near enough to close the distance. Landing on the edge of the deep crater.

"Not doing so well, aren't we? Was it too hot to teleport?" Tasaria yelled, gazing through the smoke towards the middle, where a tiny island at the center of the crater, had survived the inferno.

She expected Sora to be scared and distressed. Instead, she found her tying up her ponytail, as her hair glowed slightly harder. The air around her shattered, just like glass, as her energy grew exponentially.

Hundreds of moon rocks started floating around the crater, as she raised one hand forward. "Honestly, you just frizzed up my hair. Now you've made this personal... I won't forgive you!"

Tasaria chuckled, as she reached out with her right hand, allowing several dense elements to make her a gauntlet. A whip of lava spiralled with violet flames, manifested in her hand, stretching almost the distance, between the both of them.

Her lips twisted into a creepy smile. "Going all out like that will definitely decrease the time you have left."

Sora smiled back, as the rocks around her began launching themselves at the princess. "That's okay! I can wrap this up, with the time I have left."

Tasaria began waving her hands, as the whip exploded the rocks in midair. While Sora compressed a large amount of air between both of her palms, to an unimaginable pressure.

She sent out barrages of rocks in random intervals, then teleported behind her on the largest one, just as Tasaria turned around to face her. However, it was too late.

"Kinect: Seeking Shock!" Sora yelled, thrusting the sphere, into Tasaria's gut.

The shockwave rippled through the entire Moon, blowing apart everything in its wake, as it crashed Tasaria through the barrage of rocks. She got up, hundreds of kilometres from her original position, looking at the large crash mark she had created.

The princess shook herself and braced, as she heard a slight crack in the air, then, instinctively exploded a barrier so large, that Earth's satellites had picked it up. Sora took some heavy burns but erected a forcefield to protect herself from the inferno.

Tasaria's body burned bright hot, steaming, then cooled down quickly, as an armour, made out of violet flames and magma settled on her body. The entire landscape around them had turned into a burning moonland.

"This is my domain. Anyone inside suffers until they burn to ashes!" She exclaimed, emitting rings of fire razing the ground around her.

Sora knew she wasn't bluffing, without her forcefield, she would be burning alive. She slowly flew into the air and started gathering her last drops of energy.

She took deep breaths as she tried to keep focus, while pillars of fire erupted from the burning land, reaching for her. Sora managed to outmaneuver them and returned small bursts of air force at Tasaria, who zoomed forward flanking after her.

Then turned around beginning top retreat, but her exit was completely blocked off by walls of fire. Just as the princess appeared in front of her, in a blur of flames and swung down a sword made out of violet fire. However, the air cracked, as Sora teleported out of her imprisonment.

"Tch, the heat's limiting my abilities. I've got to end this right now." She spoke outloud to herself, wary of her situation.

It was only a moment, but she let her guard down treating her burns. While Tasaria appeared in front of her once again, in the blink of an eye, and slashed down across her chest, with incredible force. Sora flew back dozens of meters from the impact, then dropped out of the sky into the sea of fire.

The princess dissipated her sword, looking down in disappointment. However seconds later, out of the corner of her eye, she felt slight movements from below and raised a flame barrier to block the forces of blasts being launched at her.

She grinned, raising one hand towards her. "Still have some fight left in you, don't you? I suspect you only have a couple of minutes left, given your injuries?" She spoke out loud, as violet flames and lava manifested together and condensed into a rotating ball in front of her. "Sovereign Judgement!

The purple beam of fire razed the ground, while Sora raced away from it, clutching her chest, as it healed back slowly. She coughed up blood, but quickly wiped it away, knowing there was not much time left before her transformation was undone.

"I don't think I have much more in me after this... But hopefully, she shouldn't be a problem anymore." She spoke out loud, noticing the world telomoniter floating high above them. Then, she suddenly changed trajectory and flew towards the sky, while placing her hands together in a triangle shape, aiming for Tasaria. "Kinect: Falling Stars!"

At first, there was silence and then a low rumbling as the moon sky started to burn orange with thousands of meteorites. All converging towards the princess with incredible speed.

She started to sweat, fully taking in the danger she was in. Sora kept teleporting away from her fire each time she got close and forced Tasaria to give up on catching her, to turning her attention to the sky. As she tried to erase as many meteorites as she could, without success.

The largest crashed into her, with the rest piling up on top, devastating the Moon's surface and exploding unnaturally in a contained cylinder. Smoke bellowed up to the sky, with debris raining everywhere, while cracks formed on the surface of the massive cylinder explosion.

Sora quickly cupped her hands as she vomited blood and several more contents. She let the rest go, catching the core and returned back to normal.

The air around the cylinder, containing the constant explosion, shattered, then crumbled out fire and debris in a delayed shockwave. While hot winds burst the smoke and dust outwards.

Sarah covered her face as the winds shot past her, Then all was quiet, except for the sound of crackling fire. "Damn, that was close... Guess my job here is done."
