Post Fight Aftermath And A Surprise Kiss Goodnight

"impressive."

Is heard from Dante's position as the storm subsides around him, revealing him with no ember or flake of snow anywhere on his attire or body, showing just how powerful this man is that the powers of the children of fire and ice don't even leave any trace of their combo attack on him at all, finally the dual elemental explosion peters out around Phenics and Yuki as well.

There is a slight shimmering of fire and ice still dancing in the air around the two, to any other spiritually aware person this shimmer would indicate that it's just a post combo visual effect, but those who know enough about power-ups know we'll enough that it is actually an indication of a permanent power-up and it's obvious to everyone around that it was around five percent.

The only indicator that the two exerted any effort at all was their slightly panting breaths, but they stood upright, now facing each other with their fingers not interlocked at all, Phenics then holds a hand up for a high five which Yuki easily accepts and hive fives him, she then interlocks their fingers for five seconds and gives his hand a squeeze and then lets go and lowers her hand.

Phenics then lowers his own hand, a confused look on his face as to the nature of the high five they shared.

"So, Yuki, what do we call that attack? I mean, such a cool attack deserves a name, don't you think?"

Phenics asks, electing to let the high five thing go for now, he can't even fluster so short it was, so he went on to the next.

"Well then, how about "Star Burn Oblivion Storm"? That sounds something to both our tastes, right?"

Yuki suggests, it sounds like both a suggestion and a question, but they both know it's a great suggestion.

"That was such an awesome attack, you two! And that combo name? Absolute perfection my friends!"

Is heard from Miko in the crowd of spirits and angels who were watching the just finished sparring match.

"I agree with Miko, Star Burn Oblivion Storm? That's right up there with Star Burn Ice, well done indeed, you two."

Kazuya, sitting next to Miko agrees with her without a moment's hesitation and everyone around them echoes that.

"That really was indeed impressive, I must confess though, I saw your fight with Michealus earlier through my Battle Sight and that "Star Burn Ice" combo was genius, just like this one."

Dante reveals to them, the four teens look at Dante as if he just revealed the secret of life, not even Miko, with her future sight could foresee that someone with such foresight like hers exists. Phenics and Yuki and everyone else then turn to Dante with an expectant look for his verdict on their teamwork and overall performance, the duo of fire and ice having regained their breath.

"I know why you are all looking at me and as I said, that was impressive for two sixteen year olds such as yourselves, seemingly not missing a beat despite being apart for eleven years."

Having given his verdict everyone arround them started applauding the two, Dante included and surprisingly the usually quiet Kurokaze and Setsuna were also clapping their hands.

"Now, everyone, I am sure all of you must be really hungry, especially you, children of fire and ice, after such a spectacular performance, any interest in me teleporting y'all home?"

Dante asks and a shocked "What?!" rings out from three of the four teens, Yuki seemingly no selling this surprising ability, she was just as shocked, but she kept a tight lid on her awe of it.

"Shocking, isn't it? Well in any case, I'm going to put my hands on y'all shoulders. You two must hold hands so I can teleport you two together, the others will be sent later, y'all ready?"

They both voice their agreement to the idea, Dante then puts his hands on Phenics and Yuki's shoulders, Phenics and Yuki hold hands and the next thing the two know they are in Phenics' kitchen, it takes a second for them to reorient themselves and five more seconds before Yuki lets go of Phenics' hands, causing Phenics to sigh almost imperceptibly, Yuki heard it though.

"Aww, miss holding hands with me already? Come here so I can hug you you big baby."

Yuki teases Phenics, she wasn't kidding about the hug though, so she quickly envelops him in an embrace.

"What? But... I - I... Would you cut that out already?! Not that I really mind, mind you, but... Forget I just said that!"

Phenics flusters just like from the other hug that they shared that day, he did hug back despite his protests though.

"Pipe down, your mother is probably asleep, we don't want to wake her, now, do we, Phenics?"

Yuki says, shushing him, it was night time now, evident by the light being on in the kitchen at that moment.

Shutter sound.

"You two look so cute together!"

Is heard from the kitchen entryway, Phenics lets go of Yuki and jumps away, flustered, blushing up to the tips of his ears and looking at who spoke, it was his mother, Auburn Amaterasu.

"Mom! What?! Why?! Wait, Yuki, you knew my mother was standing there weren't you? I... What the heck?!"

Phenics exclaims, now more than a little flustered, Yuki just walks calmly towards Auburn and looks at the now developed in color photo and uncharacteristically coos at it.

"Your mother is right, Phenics, we look adorable together, in any case, I'm hungry and I'm sure you are too."

Five minutes later

After eating the remainder of their food they went to the bathroom and took turns brushing their teeth, afterwards Yuki catches Phenics off guard, planting a kiss on his cheek and walking calmly down the hall into her new room, Phenics is left yelling Ehhhh?! After calming down he goes into his room to sleep.
