The threw sword missed, and Mina was tackled and pinned by Annika. Mina recovered in time to dodge the flame blast, then called back the flying sword, hoping to get it to stab Annika in the back as it returned.

Annika forced her hand onto Mina's head and began incinerating it, using the same power she had performed on the wall. Annika was intending to kill Mina before the sword hit her in the back, but if she failed, the blade would likely take both of them out.
The sword flew towards Annika, impaling her... But only barely. It was survivable. Annika's flames had spread to the pouch around Mina's neck, burning it away. From withing fell many rubies, similar to the ones within the swords. The glow briefly, then dulled as the scattered, some shattered by Annika's weight, others damaged by the heat. Mina was dead.
Annika screamed in pain as the sword hit her, and reached around to pull it out of her back. She moved away from Mina's body, wincing and groaning in pain.
Once Mina died, a loud voice from above spoke. "Cease! All living contestants, please exit the arena." As the voice spoke, the arena reformed itself into the dusty plain that was it's basic form, and the thick steel door opened. Beyond it, Junkil was standing with his arms crossed. He looked with disapproval at Annika, though why was still a mystery.
And as the fight ended, Annika would feel her wound knit back together. Meanwhile, Mina began to reform in a steel tube in the locker room.
And as the fight ended, Annika would feel her wound knit back together. Meanwhile, Mina began to reform in a steel tube in the locker room.
After reforming, Mina fell out of the tube, clutching at the pouch at her neck. She was alive, and the rubies in the pouch were all perfectly formed. She let go, then stood up gingerly.
Annika left the arena, looking quite confused as her injuries healed. Upon exiting the arena, she spotted Junkil and his disapproving look. [color=c41e3a]"Mikä hätänä?" (What's the matter?)[/color] she asked.
Annika continued to look confused, however the stuffed bear pulled himself out of Annika's jacket. [color=915c83]"She is. And it's my magic, technically."[/color] he said as he perched himself on Annika's shoulder.
Junkil hesitated for a moment, then nodded. [color=000099]"Very well. Fire is a display of the anger in the world. If faced with something unnatural, that angers the Earth-Mother, then fire might be used, for then the usage is in harmony with what the world feels. One should always seek harmony with nature, even more so if blessed with magic."[/color]
The bear made a motion as though he were stroking a beard. [color=915c83]"I think I get what you mean. But, since I'm a fire spirit, what we can do is limited."[/color]
[color=000099]"I see... I wish I could help you, but I am no master, it is not my place to teach."[/color] He took a half-step back and bowed by the waist, [color=000099]"I dearly hope you will find the joy of water, or the serenity of the rock, in the future."[/color]
There was a woman sitting in the lounge, half watching the screen, but more preoccupied with what appeared to be a small metallic tube sticking out of her arm. She turned it slightly, as if screwing it in.
Rex Power Colt walked into the lounge as well, feeling like he had just woken up fun a coma. "I need a drink, fast." he muttered in a gruff, gravely voice.
Rex rummaged around behind the bar and can't out with a bottle of whiskey. He nodded to the woman and he started downing the bottle.
The woman decided to not even guess how much damage that was doing to his liver, and waved to the man as a hello.
"So what brings you here? No interest in random violence?" Rex asked he leaned against the bar.
