'Calm down, Aerav, just keep calm,' Aerav thought as the match began, and the first thing he did was concentrate on his opponent's movements, dodging his attacks as quickly as he could, and Alix smiled.
"He's clever," Alix said, and Adora smiled.
While the match was going on, Adora noticed Casian looking at her and she sighed.
"What is this guy's problem?" she grumbled.
"Whose problem?" Kyllan asked as he peeked at Casian then sighed.
"Perhaps he has taken a liking to you, believe me, a lot do without even knowing you personally," Kyllan speculated.
"Not him, there's something seriously wrong with this guy, I can tell just by looking at him, and I don't like him, I wish I could rip his eyes out for constantly staring at me," she replied, fists clenched.
"Don't go ripping people's eyes out now, focus on the match," Alix said, and Kyllan chuckled and she sighed before returning her attention to the match, in which Aerav was struggling greatly.
"Will he be all right?" Ayden inquired, concerned, as the man blew fire at Aerav, and his eyes widened as they began to glow bright orange, and he created a firewall in front of him, bouncing the guy's fire right back at him, and Adora smiled as the crowd left staring at them.
"He is making his fire stronger than his opponent, he plans on tiring him out in the second round so that he can get the upper hand and win fast, he is not strong like that guy but he knows how to end the match except this time without actually beating the guy, it's that or something else that will use a tremendous amount of power," Kyris said, and Ayden sighed.
'You are stronger than me, I know that, I know I cannot beat you at my current stage, Ayden is currently stronger than me as well, but I can tire you out, you fight using your sense, you also rely a lot on your power, you are a monster in disguise, to be honest, but I just need to keep going and one hit enough to keep you down until after the count down to win is all I need, a cheat but after this, I will use my family's power if that does not work, I am not weak,' Aerav thought as he took a deep breath and stood in one place.
'Let's see how hot his fire is; is it gentle or deadly?' Aerav wondered as the guy threw a fireball at him, he tried dodging him, but it was as though the fire was pulling towards him and as he tried to use it against the guy it knocked him down and gave the opponent the win of the first round, but despite being hurt, Aerav stood back up and smiled as he looked at the burn on his stomach.
'He fights with rage and looks down on his opponent; I despise people like this, but not this one,' Aerav thought.
"You are fast, don't think I don't understand what you are trying to do," his opponent said, smiling.
"I don't care if you know, I'm not going to lose to someone like you," he replied as he took a deep breath with a perfect stance as the guy created a circle of fire around them that was hot enough to pull the energy of any normal fire user, weakening them to the point where they won't be able to stand up even after the match is over, only a few minutes later.
"What is this guy? Secretly a blood-thirsty dragon?" Yan asked.
"He is like a Salamander," Cameron said as Adora's eyes narrowed and she sighed as she looked at the fire.
"Aerav is about to get his ass handed to him if he doesn't figure out how to avoid being weakened by the fire," Adora said.
"What would you do Adora?" Alix asked and she looked at him.
"I am not all mighty, even I can't fight certain things but, if I had Aerav's power, I'd use it to well build a barrier, strong enough to block the guy's fire, out burn his, but that is only possible if you are strong enough, use his fire except not orange, blue, it's cool," she replied.
"Is Aerav aware of the blue fire?" Alix inquired.
"I believe he does, but he must believe he is not strong enough to use it," she responded, and Alix sighed as Aerav fell to his knees, feeling weak, as the other guy appeared to be getting riled up.
'I have to get up or else this will not be good, he looks like he's about to chop me up, damn it, I am not a monster, but I am a fire holder, Adora told me I will need to break past my limits, I should try that in the last round, that round is the one that matters, lose their and I lose for good,' Aerav thought while coughing before taking a deep breath and forcing himself to stand back up with his eyes glowing orange.
"I see, so you are not going to stay down, you're determined," the opponent said as he rushed to Aerav and aimed for his stomach with his flaming arm, but Aerav grabbed his arm, blocking his shot despite his arm being burnt and Alix gnashed his teeth and Aerav released a fireball at the same time that hit the guy so hard it sent him toppling over his own fire knocking him into the barrier and Aerav left staring at him as the bell rang and he won the second round but the guy got back up really angry looking at his own burnt hands.
"What was that?" Ayden asked as he got up, looking at Aerav and Adora smiled.
"They say that when your life is in danger, a certain force activates within you; well, something like that is happening, and the same thing could happen to Alix," she responded.
"Stop praying for me to get my ass handed to me, but you might be right," he said, and she chuckled as the guy charged into the ring like a raging bull, and Aerav smiled nervously, then looked up at the others, who smiled back at him as the third and final round began.
