1 Great coincidence

The wind rushed across the flat hill with a steep incline making a whooshing sound that could

Be heard from the forests below.

I don't have the high ground.The plateau in the middle is going to make this a weird fight and I'll have to watch my footing because of the loose rocks.I doubt I could bring him into the volcano where I would have an advantage so this looks like it's going to be a uphill battle for me...again.

The hot ash that is released every couple minutes begin to coat the two men who are standing in silence patiently waiting for the other to make a move.

Akshat screams

"LIGHTNING"

The sky is instantly filled with clouds and then a great bright light streaks across the sky.

I raise hand.

LIGHTNING STRIKES

I redirect the lightning from one hand to the other and point towards Akshat.

The lightning shoots towards him slightly slower than what jords received.

I start sprinting towards him

"10"

As soon as his feet touched the ground it turned into puddles of Molten rock. Akshat is doing a weird hand sign while running away and trying to keep his distance.

"9"

The space between them is slowly getting smaller but the available footing for jords is slowly becoming non existent

8"

Akshat sits down and puts his hands in his pocket

7,"

Still too much space between them. The floor has stop melting around jords

6"

Akshat gets up and slaps the ground and throws a couple of bottles around him

"5"

I'm too close I still have some seconds left

"4"

The bottles around Akshat break and his pants disappear. His lower half is covered by fire and the broken glass begins to rise and then turn into sand.

"3"

Alright I'm fucked

"2"

The sand from the ground shoots up in spikes and Pierces jords feet.

2"

The blood rushes out. the sand spikes that didn't pierce him have changed shape and are now wrapped around his leg restraining his movement.

1"

BOOM

Jords is now in the air. There is fire shooting out of the bottom of his foot like a jet propulser.

The sand combines and chases jords thru the air. The bleeding worsens.

He flys straight into Akshat.

"Splash"

Water starts shooting out of Akshat's hand and extinguishes jords flame.

Now they are within a feet of each other. Jords is dodging the giants sand spike while having a close range fight.

Jords goes for a lead hook Akshat jumps away and then immediately reengaged with a Jab.Jords deflects it downwards and on his way back jumps forwards and hits Akshat with a upwards elbow.

The elbow immediately generates a shockwave strong enough to burn the skin off of jords elbow. Akshat loses the skin around his chin and neck. the blast sent both of them back a couple of feet

Immediately the rocks under Jords melt and burn his already bleeding legs.

Jords points two fingers at Akshat and then a tiny red light begins flying towards him at a decent speed.

Akshat dodges it but when it ultimately hits the ground behind him and creates a giant crater which opens up a deep cave leading to the magma.

Jords charges Akshat in hope to push him

Closer to the lava. Akshat snaps his fingers and the entire ground becomes ice. Due to his momentum and lack of friction jords slides into the opening and sees that he has time till he reaches where the magma is.

"Red bitch"

A Phoenix appears

"The next time u call me with that name I will take one of your arms and make u fight some hell hounds,that is not a threat but a promise" it said in a deep voice that echoed throughout the cave.

"Don't worry my little birdy I'll fight any monster u throw at me just so I can make sure u obey me and can heat the water for my tea" said jords

"I see u still refuse to accept that as a spirit I have more authority over this world than u could even imagine, ur punishment shall be on its way"

The Phoenix envelopes Jords and absorbs all the heat emanating from the magma below. They begin to ascend up till they reach the exit. Jords lands on the edge and the Phoenix starts mumbling words. Jords begins to talk with Akshat.

"Yo what are u thinking this was supposed to be a friendly match" said jords

"I sure as hell knew u were about to kill me with that elbow u threw, I'm lucky u turned the heat u made mostly into steam so I wouldn't get badly hurt, but its ur initial intent that really counts" Akshat said confidently

"Well after what u did to my foot of course I was trying to kill u, till the last second when I decided to be a GOOD FRIEND,"

"U should be fine, u summoned the Phoenix so he should be able to use the fire from the magma to heal u... wait WHY DID U SUMMON HIM? i know for a fact that u could've condensed the entire volcano into one of ur weird moves" said Akshat completely confused

"First of all they are called my special moves and they're not weird at all."

" not really the point and yes they are weird. JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION"

"Wow so ur really saying my special move where I sacrifice my blood to create something made of smoke isn't effective" said jors

"It would be effective if u didn't just make girls with big boobs" said Akshat

"Well sometimes making multiple smoke clones of myself wouldnt really help me much"

"When we were invading a castle and made it to the king's room without being detected, u made 10 smoke clones to try and intimidate him into giving up without a fight. All 10 were big tiddy girls."

"Well the king did give up so my plan worked perfectly"

" HE GAVE UP BECAUSE I HELD HIS DAUGHTER HOSTAGE WITH A KNIFE WHILE U WERE HAVING UR CLONES DANCE WITH YOU"

" he still gave up. My point still holds"

The Phoenix finally stops mumbling and a giant circle is created around them.

"Oh no what did u do this time"

"Nothing much but it looks like ur joining me in my fight with a hellhound"

"Nope I cant really do much against spirits, your on your own"

The glowing circle finally transports them to a small collesseum. Jords arm begin to burn to ash as the gate opens. Four giant hell hounds emerge from beyond the gate.

Each one around 3 times his size with teeth bigger than his entire upper body

"To be or not to be" says jords
