Explosive Finish?

I slowly got up off the ground and continued watching Jyn and Kerrin fight. They kept throwing attacks at each other but every one of the them would get blocked.

"Hey, John, why is your Genmochi all the way over there?" Veronica said, pointing towards my left.

We slowly made our way over to Genki, making sure to keep our guard up if Ren were to reappear. When I finally picked up Genki a sudden thought came to my mind, where even was Ren?

I turned around just to see Ren readying his fist to punch me. I quickly raised Genki and attempted to slash him. A clone shot out of his side and used its body to move the blade out of the way. Instead of hitting me he shot another clone that came from above. Erika blocked his attack but was also sent crashing into the ground.

This time, Ren actually punched me causing me to take a couple steps back. Veronica swung her hammer at him but he ducked underneath it and shot a clone towards where she was open. Each clone he made disappeared after it did its purpose.

"It seems like this diamond is a lot more valuable than I originally thought if you're trying this hard to get it." I said.

"You really do have no idea what this gem is capable of." Ren said, creating a clone that punched me in the stomach. Another clone shot out of the clone which punched me in the face. A third clone came from above and just barely missed me.

Erika got back and fired feathers off of her wings. Ren made four clones that stood in front off all the feathers making sure none of them hit him. When Erika stopped firing her feathers the four Rens charged at her.

I ran over Erika in an attempt to stop the Rens and struck the first one across the face. Thankfully I wasn't using the explosive punches anymore so I didn't have to worry about breaking my arms. Though I'd probably use them again soon. The second Ren came from my side and hit me in the side of the head. The third one came from my other side and also struck me head. The fourth one finally struck me by hitting me in the stomach.

Before I could even recover from the blow that was just delivered a Ren appeared behind me and elbowed my shoulder causing me to hit the ground again.

"You can't beat me, that much is blatantly obvious. So why don't you just stay down and surrender? Why is the gem so important to you?" Ren asked.

I picked myself off the ground once more and looked at Ren. My body could barely stand but I didn't care. Even if my reason for getting the diamond back was weak, I wasn't going to give up on Eli. I wiped the blood off my mouth and gave Ren a grin.

I fired Genki behind me propelling me towards Ren. I smashed my head against his causing him to stagger back in pain. Erika soon appeared next to him and shot some feathers at him. Veronica soon jumped over my head and smashed her hammer down just barely missing Ren but still causing him to be sent flying up.

I fired Genki again, this time sending me up in the air with Ren. I readied Genki and yelled the first spell that came to mind.

"Magic Slash!"
