As the people ran out of the arena, the walls crumbling and cement and duct flying around them, they couldn't help echoing the screams around them as they repeated on word, almost like a mantra, a prayer as they scrambled for the only exit. Men and women climbed, pushed and shoved at eachother, injuring and hurting those in their mad rush for escape. As the screams got louder and the splatter of blood on their backs seared through their clothes at the occurrence of a fresh kill, the scrambling got more desperate.
All throughout the madness, two people, toward the center of the arena remained unaffected of the chaos around them. A young woman and man were both surrounded by a circular pulsating golden force of energy that sent out waves of destructive energy which demolished all in its path, crumbling rock and granite; when it touched the people it shredded them until nothing was left but blood splatters that drenched those it hadn't touched.
The man was cackling loudly and clapping as his fire-bright green eyes took in the carnage around them. He felt his golden brown hair billow in the force of the destructive aura and turned to look at its source. The girl stood immobile as the energy pulsated out her body, her eyes clenched tightly, almost as if she were trying not to see what was going on around her. Her palms were fisted at her sides as the people around her continued to scream and shout and call out the one word that had her cringing. The man placed his hand on her shoulder and watched as her eyes popped open.
'Look around you, look at what you've accomplished!' he cried as more than a dozen people fell at the onslaught of her power. 'Don't be afraid to see what you can do, you are no longer weak! You are in control now! This,' he gestured at the wreck, 'this is your legacy!' he crowed as he took her chin in his palm and looked into her pained emerald gaze, 'this is you…Sakura.'
