"The battle between a Multitudinous and Strategist will be underway in 3! 2! 1!" The buzzer boomed as the match was underway.
Deion laughed as he approached, "Overhyped and Overrated." He said as he cast two fireballs, he was cocky, very cocky, "You know there would have been a time that I would have been scared to fight you, but I know you ain't shit."
Deion Ethan hurled the fireball at Thomas, hoping to burn him alive in his skin. Thomas sidestepped it, but the fireball just stopped behind him. He hurled two more making sure this time, they'd follow him. Thomas dodged, and then he was forced to keep doing so until he hit a full sprint.
Thomas was running at Deion, and then, at the last second,, he jumped over him, "Pathetic." Instead of the Fireball hitting Deion, it abruptly stopped and went up straight up at Thomas, causing a massive explosion. Deion smirked as the crowd was in awe, he managed to hit the National Finalist.
Thomas came out relatively unscathed. When he landed, he just looked annoyed, like this pest actually wanted to fight him for real, but no, Thomas could not fight him for real but only match him. "That's... it?" Thomas said, and this seemed to slightly annoy Deion as he threw two more fireballs at him. Then 4 more to places he would be.
The first one missed, the second one missed, the third one he dodged by cutting back as the second and the fourth one slammed into him, spewing a pillar of fire. He looked displeased as he dusted himself off. "He was like Ben." He thought as he was finally going on the offensive.
Thomas jumped at him, his fist coated in energy; he punched Deion in the gut, and the entire arena cheered as Deion Clutched his stomach.
