Chapter 10

Roxy was determined, like a fiery phoenix spreading it's wings and about to take flight. This isn't just a fight to her, one has to give way for the other to shine. She sees this as a means of proving her identity. No way she's gonna loose to a fake.

Knowing that freezing Roxy wouldn't be enough to stop her, she realized she would have to stick to frontal combat. She crafted a sword with her ice along with a shield. Roxy charged towards her as she froze the ground to stop her on her tracks then dashed to give the final blow. Roxy struck the ground with the end of her baton which released a huge amount of compressed heat and melted all the ice, immediately freeing herself. Then she dodged the blow and got behind Frosty while trying to land a punch. She immediately shielded her back with ice from the ground as it cracked and shattered when Roxy punched it then turned and blasted her away with ice which sent her tumbling until she was stopped by a wall.

Frosty stretched her arm forward to Roxy's direction and folded it like a fist, causing a giant mass of ice to form right above Roxy. She waved her fingers downwards and sent the ice boulder falling on top of her. Dust soon settled and Roxy was still standing with scratches all over her body.

She continuously gasped heavily as she struggled to stay on her feet.

“Don't tell me you're getting tired already” Frosty teased “Give up and go home” she insisted.

Roxy, being as hot headed as ever stood firm. She spat out blood and yelled “Never!”. In a flash, she rushed towards her sister. Frosty created an ice wall in front of her which Roxy broke through then dodged a couple of ice blades and maneuvered using zig zag movements and jumping over other attacks from the ground before gathering enough momentum then landed a heavy punch on Frosty's face. She raised her gaze and clenched her fist, then raised it up to deliver a brutal uppercut as she shattered into ice pieces.

“Impressive, but that was only a clone” Frosty said from behind her “Give up”.

Roxy turned back and yelled again “Never!!”.

She flung one of her baton directly towards Frosty and immediately dashed after it while Frosty formed an ice shield to try protect her self but it caused an explosion the moment it made contact with the shield as the blast sent her crushing the side of a car. She extended her arm, pulling the baton back to her like a boomerang then gave a war cry and held the two batons by her side as she continued to run towards Frosty. Then pushed a button on the handle, causing an excessive outburst of flames at the other ends which propelled her as it boosted her forward then landed a more powerful blow on Frosty's cheek as the force of the punch sent her straight through a car, splitting it into two equal parts and finally rolling a couple of meters away.

Frosty stood up with several cuts and scratches which got sealed up with ice. Roxy was sure her sister didn't possess any healing factor, so she knew Frosty had to be in serious pain especially after those attacks. But she's somehow managed to seal up all physical injuries inflicted, and she also seems okay.

The temperature which initially seemed low with Frosty's presence got even lower. A single step from her froze the ground as her eye got whitened. She walked towards Roxy with a firm display of ego.

AND ANGER!

She slowly formed an ice rod which a very sharp edge and clenched to it as it was giving off smoke.

“Lets do this properly. I won't say this again Roxy, give up!” She said. Her voice could perfectly reflect her ironclad intent which is to stop the INTRUDERS from jeopardizing their plans against destroying Ego, the world's greatest enemy.

“Never!!!” Roxy roared.

She dashed towards her sister, Frosty extended her arm, forming a large amount of ice spikes and sent them directly to Roxy. She stopped then started to dodge and deflect them. Frosty created a wall of ice around her and covered the top then started to squeeze Roxy in while simultaneously freezing the insides.

“You've always been so naive sis. Tough I don't plan to kill you, but I do want to make you feel some real pain” she finally released her hands after hearing a loud noise from the ice cage. She heard a deafening roar followed by a loud explosion as Roxy came out STEAMING HOT! and immediately went for the offensive as Frosty said.

“As expected” she also dashed towards Roxy as the both clashed and started exchanging all forms of physical attacks with both of them dodging and deflecting each other's.

A fierce battle between two sisters or should I say a battle between an ORIGINAL and a CLONE. Fighting, fighting for who would outshine the other in a world filled with utter discrimination.

She placed her hands on Roxy's right shoulder and released tiny ice spikes which pierced her as she screamed loudly in pain then turned and gave her a hard hit in Frosty's jaw with her elbow then took a few steps back as she reached for her shoulders and twitched after slightly touching the wounded part.

“What's wrong, painful much?” Frosty teased.

“I could say the same to you, for some reason you're still holding your face, oh I wonder why”. Roxy replied.

“You never seize to surprise me”

“What do you mean?”.

“Out of ignorance of the physical injuries that were inflicted on your body, you forgot that sweet little piece of ice that got you in your thighs earlier”.

Roxy looked down and saw her legs bleeding as she dropped down to her knees in pain. A piece of ice pierced through her thighs earlier when she was trying to deflect those spikes. She left out a loud scream as she pulled out the ice and dropped it then found her legs trembling. Frosty suddenly started increasing the size of the spikes that pierced her shoulders as Roxy cried in pain and started to pull those out as well.

Ignorance?

Yeah that's true, I was ignorant.

Roxy couldn't feel the pain on her thighs because she wasn't aware of it. Her mind was completely cut off the fact that she could have gotten an injury at that time as what she wanted, all she could really think about was how to defeat the current threat she was facing. So when she finally saw the wound, it was as if she felt the accumulated pain she had ignored all at once. Her body cried, so she fell to the ground and couldn't lift herself up. After all, she was only an Abnormal.

“Get up Roxy!” she bawled out to herself.

“I said get up!”.

She continued “why won't you just do what I say and get up, move your body damnit. You can't let her beat you, you still have to protect Kyle” She was continuously hitting the ground as she muttered those words to herself.

Until...she heard THE voice.
