It's finally over. I defeated a piece of shit royal. My back is killing me now. I need to sit down for a few minutes. I use water magic to wash away all of Ji's blood on my face and body.

Toretto: Ji Nagasaki has suffered his second one v one loss of the regular season. And the twenty-first loss of his career. Golden Divine Eagles fans! Ji Nagasaki is still alive but in critical condition; he will be receiving the best care. We ask ya'll to keep Ji Nagasaki in your thoughts and prayers. The one v one has concluded. Now we will be moving on to the two v two. But first, we go into intermission. Usually, the intermissions would last five minutes, but it will be extended to eight minutes.

Sophia is signaling to come to her. I hop down from the STP. Valdis created this swirling space gray spatial portal right next to me. I went through it, and I'm here with everyone, at the skybox with an extended walkway that's forty-three feet off the ground. On the edge of the walkway has a four-foot white patio railing. Sophia sped to me and gave me a welcoming embrace. Everyone had this proud look on their faces. Sophia helped me inside the skybox. I notice there's a bar, and behind the bar, there's an eighty-inch flatscreen 4k tv. There are multiple golden sofas and coffee tables; Sophia helped me sit down on the sofa. Sophia sat right next to me.

Zoey: Is anyone going to say anything?! This man won his first one v one! Against Ji Nagasaki! Everyone started cheering, except Justin. He instead gave me a two-finger clap, and Bri didn't even cheer or clap at all. Sophia gave me a peck on the cheek.

Valdis: Blue, I was worried for a second when you got hit by Ji's trump card! I was like, we told him to end it early. Even our fans screamed, "push him out of bounds!" Then we were about to start doing it as well, but Sophia said, "When Sora's fighting a royal, he's really focused. He doesn't hear anything but his opponent." Justin: So, did you even hear Toretto and Maina's commentary? Sora: I didn't hear anything from them after the countdown.

Valencia: Your injury to your back needs to be treated right away. I can heal you if you want? Sora: I already know what you're thinking, but we have to conserve as much mana as possible. So let Valencia heal me. Sophia: I didn't even say anything, and I have nothing against anyone healing you. Sora: Alright, we'll see if you're telling the truth or not! (Playfully laughing) I showed my back to Valencia. She'd made her hands completely turn into ice.

Valencia: Ice Magic: Frost Heal. Valencia touched my back; the thin layer of ice traveled across my torso. Valencia: Wait, are your hands and arms broken?! Since I'm not self-healing anymore, they will start to crack if I use excessive force! (Laughing) Valencia turned me around. She slowly caresses my shoulders down to my hands. She took her hands off me, then the ice completely turned into six inches of thick layered ice. Sora: Thank you. How long till I'm healed up? Valencia: Three, two, one, and now. You're entirely healed up. Valencia clapped her hands twice, and the ice disappeared like it was never there.

Deshon: I'm astounded you're not shivering from that. Sora: Combine ice and dark magic, then I would be shivering. Justin: It's twelve-twelve. And the two v two starts at twelve-nineteen. We should start discussing the two v two.

Benson: I was waiting for someone to say something. Sora, you did alright. But you were too passive at the beginning of the fight. But after you and Ji fell. You started to be the aggressor, but you played around too much. You wanted to shatter Ji's royal pride. So the match was longer than it needed to be. Then you got hit with his ultimate, and somehow it didn't put a single scratch on you. And let's not forget how brutal you were, that man. You tortured him worse than a terrorist. But at least you didn't kill him. You showed some type of mercy by dropping him out of bounds.

Peyton: The ref should've been called the fight. Zoey: But you know Ji is very famous for coming back in the fight and winning it. Justin: But the ref should've called it when Sora superhero landed back to the STP without a single scratch on him.

Toretto: There's an update on Ji Nagasaki; they reattached him with the rest of his body. He's out of the woods. But he's still in intensive care. And Maina has something important to say as well. Maina: All of you saying on social media that you think Sora cheated by healing or using some type of forbidden spell. Because he sustained no damage to Ji's "Doomsday" spell. The review committee and I are looking into it. But what I saw in live and some of the replayed footage shows Sora tanked attack using reinforcement magic. But the review committee will look at this very closely.

Toretto: Thank you for that, Lady Maina! Remember, people, a mage is innocent until proven guilty. Since Ji Nagasaki will be unable to participate in the two v two due to his critical condition. The Golden Divine Eagles players will be the great August Hachimura & the Viki Talman. August Hachimura only suffered one loss in two on two. This will be Viki Talmas' fourth two v two in the regular season. She's usually a three v three and a five v five player. For the Twilight Tigers, Sophia Accordia and Sora Hestia will be in the two v two. This will be Sophia's Accordia debut in two v two. So we have a freshman duo going against two all-stars. Maina, who do you think is going to win?!

Maina: Well, I usually go with the experienced players in this, especially if they're all-stars. But I'm going with Sora and Sophia; I heard many things from their coach Andre Benson. He said these two will be dangerous when they come to Rowan Academy.

Toretto: Okay, if you were betting on this fight in Vegas, who would you choose because Vegas gives August and Viki eighty-nine chances of winning? Maina: From what I saw in the one v one, I will bet on Sora and Sophia. And here's a disclaimer for everyone! I'm not telling you to make any bets on any fights, even though gambling is not against the rules but be mindful. It is your money, not anyone else's.

Benson: Hey! Pay attention! Everyone circle around me! Sora and Sophia, your opponents! August Hachimura uses earth, water, and fire magic! Viki Talman uses wind, fire, and destruction magic. Zoey: You may be thinking since Ji Nagasaki is out of the picture, these two won't work that well with one another. You're absolutely wrong! August works better with Viki as a team. The only reason is in the two v two is his agitating personality towards his opponents.

Valdis: You might want to take things slow for this fight. August and Viki are durable for the long haul. Justin: Sora, you should go against August Hachimura, he fights barehanded, and he's a close to mid-range fighter. You don't need to go against Viki because she is a speedster. It will be beneficial if you have some fresh legs for the three v three.

De'Niro: Make sure to break August Hachimura's defense; it will make the fight go a lot smoother. Peyton: Think before you act since this is your first time in a two on two. You two should really confirm what you want to do during the fight. Deshon: Did you get all of that? I know it can be too much to handle all of this information.

Sora and Sophia: Are you guys done?! Because we're tired of listening to guys' tips and tricks. It doesn't matter what they do. We're winning no matter what. Justin: Okay, that's hella creepy! Peyton: But at least discuss your plans with us. Sophia: What do you want to do? Sora: Let's just let things happen. Sophia: Sounds like fun.

Roberto: Twilight Tigers and Golden Divine Eagles, please present your mages to the STP. So we can begin the match. The review committee decision is in. It was determined that Sora Hestia did not use any forbidden magic or use any type of recovery magic. It was determined that he used some kind of defensive magic to ward off Ji Nagasaki's Doomsday spell.

Sophia and I stood up, and Valdis used his swirling space gray spatial portal right next to us, and we went right through it. We ended up, right in the middle of the STP. August Hachimura is a teen who stands six foot three with long wavy black hair that barely touches his back and has amber-colored eyes. He's walking in a white button-up vest while not rocking any shirt underneath. He also has skinny blue jeans on while not having any shoes on. Viki Talman is a teen with short green-dyed hair with green eyes and a sharp jawline. She's wearing a student blazer uniform with a golden pearl colored with the Golden Divine Eagles logo on it, and her basketball shorts have the same color scheme.

Roberto: Mages, let's have a candid fight. Remember to protect yourself at all times, so you can avoid any fatal injuries. If you desire to kill your opponent, say it to your opponent or to me. So you won't get penalized after the match and trialed with murder. If you don't consent to being killed by your opponent or killing your opponent, then say something immediately; if you're unable to speak, then signal for a timeout. If you are missing arms to signal a timeout, then get on your knees. If you're missing legs as well bang your head on the stone tablet platform. Ladies and gentlemen, do you understand what I just stated? Both of our sides said yes.

Roberto: If the fight goes too far this time, like the last fight, I will stop it. Let me review the things that result in an automatic forfeit. If you touch the grass with any part of your foot, then your opponent will be declared the victor. If you use any forbidden spells that have been ruled out of competition, then the match will stop, and then the review committee will take a look at it and decide the course of action. If you believe that they made a bad call, then ask for the review committee chief Maina Hestia to review it; if she's not able to review immediately, then this fight will be under review in the court of the review committee and in the courts will always have the final say about the decision.

But luckily, Maina Hestia is president; she might issue a warning of using a forbidden spell. Sora, since this is your debut, Maina and I will be lenient about some of the rules. One more thing, If I stop the fight, it doesn't mean the fight is over; I will dish out some orders then you will resume fighting. Also, be careful what you say on the STP records audio, the other refs in the tent and the folks at home will hear it; this is a new rule being enforced today. Other than that, any questions before we start. Both sides said no. Roberto: Then, gentlemen, shake hands and go back to your sides. So we can initiate the countdown; I will be over on the sidelines in the big blue tent.

Roberto sprinted to the blue tent fifty yards away from the STP. August Hachimura, Viki Talman and Sophia, and I went back to our sides. And waited for the countdown.

Toretto: Now, our referee Roberto Kelli has explained everything to our mages. Now, let's initiate the ten-second countdown. A colossal display monitor on the other side of the stadium was showing both of us there. Then it changes into the countdown cycle.

I was nervous, but this time I have Sophia with me. I'm excited that she's with me. It was hard to keep calm at first, but I have her with me. As I knew it, the announcer and the crowd were at three on the countdown. Roberto: Three, two, one, go!!! Let the match begin!!!

Sophia has her cyan-colored rapier unsheathed. I asked Rin for my katana. And she made it appear on my back with its red and black scabbard and the red and black ray skin on the handle. I drew my katana. August and Viki started bolting at us. Sophia and I used light magic to go beyond the speed of light; we targeted August; first, I went to slice off his leg while Sophia went for the chest to stab him multiple times. My slash didn't cut his leg all the way through; I only managed to get halfway through it. Sophia's attacks were all successful. My legs are already getting tired, but Sophia keeps on pushing. She'd locked her attention to Viki Talman. Sophia immediately struck Viki's throat. Then she pulled her rapier out of her neck and kept stabbing Viki in the stomach. I followed up an attack by slashing through both of Viki's legs below the knee. Then I went behind and kneed her back, and then I put my hand through her back to crush the lower spine. Sophia and I went back to our starting positions. And slowed ourselves down to the speed of light, then we deactivated our speed enhancement. Sophia, without taking a single second to catch her breath, was about to use a spell.

I have to keep up with her; I can't let her down!

Sophia and Sora: Combo Spell: Earth Magic: Stone Pillars. We raise up twenty feet off the ground with pillars made of rock. August and Viki were on the ground, trying to process what was going on. August is leaking blood from his chest and turning his white vest into a red vest. August is losing a lot of blood from his left leg; the cut I made stopped midway at the bone. He's continuously losing pounds of blood. For Viki, both of her legs were cut. Viki and August let out blood-curdling screams.

Sophia and I were about to unleash a nasty double red lightning strike together so they could have permanent scars, but the ref, Roberto Kelli, stopped the fight by blowing the whistle and getting in front of August and Viki. Roberto: The match is over!!! August Hachimura and Viki Talman sustained too many critical injuries!!! The victors are the Twilight Tigers!
