Supremacy Games

The dust of the collapsed arena was still settling, the cheers of Felix's victory echoing through the silent air. The spectators' faces were still turned to the figure standing alone in the center of the arena, their applause ringing out in unison.

Then, a thunderous crash resonated from beneath the ground, the vibrations reaching every corner of the coliseum.

The ground shivered, then convulsed violently as a massive formation of ice erupted from beneath the arena floor!

Jaws dropped in shock as a giant sword, carved of the clearest ice and glinting menacingly in the sunlight, thrust upwards into the sky!!

Astride this icy behemoth was none other than Avalanche himself, bloodied and battered, yet unbowed. His white fur was stained red, his body marred with gashes and bruises, but the fire in his eyes was stronger than ever.

"TRAVELER!!!" He roared, the sound rippling through the coliseum, causing the cheers to die abruptly.

His breath came in ragged pants, his chest heaving while his eyes were filled with an untamed fury locked onto Felix.

The coliseum fell into stunned silence, the taste of victory was swiftly replaced by the anticipation of a renewed fight.

"Avalanche hasn't given up yet!! But, how long can he last with only two hits left before his elimination?!" Mr. Sogrus commentated excitedly as he highlighted a small number on top of Avalanche's head.

It was eighteen written in red.

'He must have blocked many hits down there.' Felix frowned, knowing that the number should have been much higher.

"TRAVELER!!"

With another furious roar, Avalanche launched himself toward Felix while extending his grip forward like he wanted to choke him out.

'Sh*t!'

Felix's expression turned for the worst as the air itself around him was bent to Avalanche's psychokinetic energy before it latched onto him!

He felt like he was caught by an iron grip, invisible but unbearably strong, anchoring him to his spot as surely as chains would!

A vicious snarl twisted Avalanche's muzzle as his hands danced with a cold, eerie light, summoning his ice abilities.

Ice shards, sharp as daggers, emerged from his palms and flew towards Felix with frightening speed, crashing against his telekinetic barrier!

Felix's barrier flickered under the relentless barrage, shimmering waves of energy struggling to keep the icy onslaught at bay.

Avalanche was relentless. He raised a claw, and a frigid gust, teeming with minuscule ice particles, stormed towards Felix. The gale force wind lashed against Felix's barrier, each ice particle a hammer blow!

'Focus, focus, focus.'

Felix's face twisted with exertion, sweat dripping from his forehead as he fought to maintain his barrier while at the same time wanting to use his vibration to neutralize the telekinetic energy holding into him.

He found it already difficult to pull it off while he was at peace, don't even mention in this stressful situation.

Avalanche's barrage was relentless...His eyes were cold, unwavering in their intensity as he watched Felix's barrier begin to splinter.
