Sparring

Sounds of explosions rocked the entire training complex, and most athletes, fighters, and coaches found themselves unable to see clearly what is happening, yet also unable to look away. Dazzling figures danced around the battlefield with blurry afterimages of their movements dotted all across, and each of the individual strikes, hits, and clashes create blasts of air and shock waves that made the sparring battlefield look like a stage straight out of a video game.

In the midst of combat were Bones and Freya, and when Freya said she would make it up to Bones, she wasn't kidding in the slightest. Before the sparring practice begun, Freya offered to get Bones in a combat-ready suit, but he declined, assuming that his skills in combination with his enhancements from the empowered ink would be enough to at least hold on with Freya.

He was dead wrong.
