The platform was a misty, sky blue color.

Sora braced himself. After the first fight, he knew what to expect.

Another portal opened up some ways away from him, and out stepped another cloaked figure, this time female. The wind blew her long, chestnut-colored hair with some strength, the air alive and whispering with the presence of spirits. Though this sent a faint shiver down the boy's spine, the girl's sky blue eyes did not deviate from Sora's.

"Hey, Sora." The girl's voice was friendly, with a dark edge to it. A faint smile, laced with hate, slid over her lips. "I hope you're ready to pay for my brother's lives…"

In a sharp flash of white, a katana appeared to her hands, gold in color and intricately designed. She flipped the blade around her fingers for show, and took on a fighting stance. Sora gripped his own weapon tightly.

A smirk on her behalf. "After you."

She was going to regret that.

The Keyblader ran forward and lashed out with speed, nearly whacking the girl. But Axial was too quick, and she dodged with ease. She swung out at him with less-than-impressive speed, and the boy parried it. He lashed out again, this time hitting her ribs. While she was reacting to the blow, he managed to get in about four more whacks, and followed up his combo with a strike to the head.

The girl staggered back, clutching her injured torso. The blood was already soaking her coat.

"Ah, man…that stings…" she hissed, wincing. She rushed him from the side and lashed out at him in rapid succession. Sora brought up his Keyblade to block the rain of attacks, although a few made contact with his body.

She screeched in frustration and swung wilding, whacking Sora across the face and sending him flying across the platform. He cried out in pain as his body hit the ground with force, definitely leaving some nasty bruises behind. He gripped his cheek and stood up shakily, cringing. He could already feel the blood running down his skin and through his fingers.

Before he knew it, Axial was right in his face, preparing for another damaging blow.

So he just stabbed out towards her.

And she ran into the blade.

The brunette let out a strangled gasp and a bloody cough as it pierced her 'Heart' area. She stood there, shocked, before her knees gave out and she fell to the ground. And then she began to fade.

She grinned weakly, and whispered, "Heh…thanks for the fight…"

And then she disappeared.

Sora wiped the blood from his cheek, and looked around for his next challenger.

And the platform began to glow beneath him, and he braced himself for the next challenge.

000000

Another battle drabble from GS' challenge. The criteria this time:

Against Axial, Axial may fight alongside Marlon(who should be scared, at

least a bit), and should be mad that Sora killed 2 versions of her brother

already. The decrease in her power from the beginning of the RP should be

apparent.

I know I didn't use Marlon in this (for one, the way you worded it made it sound sorta optional, and two, I'm not quite sure how he fights), so I'm sorry for that. :(

Axial belongs to Axira. I hope ya'll enjoyed it.
