"He will lose, you just don't want to doubt your son. I don't blame you... but he's far too weak, don't you think? Could he even fight you? How do you expect him to fight Providia? Come on, Ali, don't be stupid now." Providence said.
"Ali! Are you alright?!" Lucas shouted out. She nodded and kept her eyes on Providence.
"Ali is the least of your problems, Lucas. How are you going to fight me with one arm?" Providence teased Lucas and he teased her right back.
"One arm is all I need." He commented.
The ground started to violently shake and Providence's hair stuck up like she was laying upside down. Every strand of hair pointed up in the air and she had a confused look.
Was she not doing that...?
A big reveal occurred when Ali walked in front of my vision with a lit-up face again.
That image on her face with the lines and triangles appeared and her sabers were flowing like a river with golden strands. The ground lifted up from what I thought was the Earth and we began to rise into the sky. The broken blocks of dirt and torn-up ground raised higher than the ground underneath us... but Providence still didn't falter.
Ali was raising the entire battlefield with a sinister ability.
"We'll see about that," Providence replied to Lucas's snarky comment.
The fight began again and jumping through the raised blocks of land, Ali closed the distance in under a second and slammed both of her sabers into a perfect point at Providence's chest. She took the hit, thinking she could sustain it, but she was brutally cut in half by Ali.
Ali kicked the air and changed her trajectory, landing on a block of dirt about ten feet away in midair, and then charging in toward Providence once more.
Providence redirect Ali's momentum and clashed again with Lucas. The ground cracked underneath her and Providence quickly gained the upper hand in strength against Lucas, pushing him to the ground and swinging her saber in a wide, circular arc toward the floating ground underneath me. She cracked the ground into a quarter-slice of its original size and pushed Lucas away from the main fight with Ali.
Lucas couldn't kick the air and change his position, but Ali could... and she was.
Ali was darting back and forth, striking Providence, but she couldn't hit her after a certain point. Providence flipped up, grabbed one of the floating rocks, and threw it at Ali, destroying her momentum, and striking her near her heart with a stab from her saber.
When the hit connected, it blasted a hole right underneath Ali's heart and sent her flying to the ground.
Lucas closed the distance and started to clash with Providence as well. Providence had two sabers, but Lucas was holding his own as he dodged and used the terrain to his advantage. Anything that was left on the ground was used in Lucas's journey to overwhelm Providence with strategy. Of course, it didn't work and Providence quickly struck Lucas down by throwing his body toward the same location she threw Ali.
However... Ali was missing.
When Providence noticed, she turned her head up and Ali was there with her fist cocked back. What was a punch going to do?
It was strange what it ended up doing, but the punch that came from Ali malformed the air and sent out an even more intense shockwave than the burst of speed from running that Ali exerted. This one didn't just bend the air and send out a shockwave... it looked like it was bending reality.
The hit was packed with so much power that it collided with Providence's chest, broke all of her ribs and bones in her chest, and maybe even head, and pushed the raised ground back toward the Earth.
Belle, Alexia, and everybody else were wrapped in strands and lowered slowly, but Providence fell with a ton of speed toward the ground as it all fell. Ali hovered down with Lucas by her side in front of Providence, and Providence wiped off the dust from her outfit, took off ripped pieces, and wiped the sweat off of her forehead.
"I didn't expect you to show off your ability so early! The ability to manipulate gravity... that's a pretty tough one to keep concealed. How did you get that far in the fight without using it? I have to admit, Team Asterio, I'm impressed with how much of a fight you're putting up. You're actually making this challenging for me... and I must say... you're still not going to beat me." Providence said.
The fight began with all three of them creating a shockwave from their speed and clashing against each other in the middle.
"Let's get serious, shall we?" Providence said with a wicked smile.
Providence kicked out Lucas's ankles from the ground and took him off of the stable ground. Ali flipped and put Lucas back on his feet and blocked a fatal strike for him by using her ability to apparently manipulate gravity. Providence's arm was lowered to the ground and with the most force I've seen anybody be hit with in my entire life, the base of Ali's knee was slammed into the top of Providence's skull, right under her nose.
Ali took her entire skull and split it in half going horizontally after that hit and took Providence by the throat.
As if Providence was immortal, her face was reconstructed with strands and she stabbed Ali in the heart with her saber. Ali did the same to Providence and the look on Providence's face finally turned sour.
Lucas took a turn slamming his saber into Providence's face, pushing her back from Ali's position.
"You... you're really being a pain in my ass! You just won't go down, will you?!" Providence shouted out. Her playful tone finally faded, and finally gave me hope for Ali in the fight.
"What, are you getting scared?" Ali asked her with the same wicked smile Providence once showed off.
