I opened my eyes...I could breathe again. And it was warm...looking up...Kyxsha was there. I tried to sit up immediately.
"No you need your rest, just lie down for a second." She said forcing me down.
"What are you doing here?" I asked.
"I'm insisting that house arrest isn't needed. I want to go to Agraba and see whats taking the rest of my group so long to get back." At this comment...I knew we were about to argue.
"No." I said firmly.
"What?"
"I said no, you need your rest."
"And so do you, but your just going to storm back into this competition and go fight whoever is waiting for you at the final!" She remarked. I almost laughed. Hell yeah I was...I mean...I didn't go through all those wimps for nothing! I lived to fight!
"But i'm a god!" I protested. Trying to make her understand this was to prove my might! It was personal.
"I don't care."
We stared each other down. Then suddenly Kyxsha was yanked up into the arms of a strange woman. My mouth dropped looking at her.
"You aren't a god, are you?" She said holding Kyxsha up.
"Kyxsha drop this barrier!" I shouted...could she even hear me? Suddenly it dropped and I sat up on my knees..."Sis...Sister?" I questioned. She looked over at me. "Put her down. This has nothing to do with her and you know it. Your quarrel is with me."
She raised one of her eyebrows and dropped Kyxsha to the ground harshly. Kyxsha landed on her backside...and I felt myself involuntarily gulp. A chill ran through my spine looking at her for some reason...especially as she walked towards me.
"Well you've certainly gotten braver since the last time I saw you. Talking to ME that way!" She sneered with a cold stare. Then reaching down...she gripped my by the front of my tournament uniform and lifted me up. "How dare you Magni! Don't you even know how worried father and I were?! And not just you...but Modi too! You just disappeared!" Once speaking his name...she thought to see him too. Domix was trying to sneak away...creeping slowly to the arena exit. "HEY!" She shouted...lifting one hand into the air...she brought it down...and Domix went down simultaneously.
"That's right...gravity..." I murmured under my breath. Domix looked smashed to the ground...he couldn't move. She walked over...dragging me with her...
"Did I SAY you could leave?!" She stated forcefully stepping on Domix's face. I laughed a bit. "Oh...think it's funny?" Suddenly I was on the ground beside him. The force of gravity weighing heavily upon us both.
"....Sorry!!" We both mumbled...a reminiscent scene from our distant past. The pressure let up a bit...yet still we stay there motionless. Suddenly it let up completely and we both sat up. She was...crying....
"I was so worried about you guys...where in the world did you go??" She whined then moved in and embraced us both. Her bear hug was almost stronger than Herc's. I wheezed as I gasped for air.
"What the heck is going on?" I heard Kyxsha mumble. My sister dropped us and turned to her. She nudged me as I stood up. OH, now she expected an introduction?! Geez....
"Kyxsha...this is my sister Thrud..." I played along.
"T for short!" She chimed in. No way...she was still trying to use that dorky nickname...it was just her first letter...>.>
We all sat there in a brief moment of awkward silence.
Until suddenly Hades intervened. "Well...I'm going to call that last match a draw...even though TECHNICALLY a draw means you are both DEAD or other wise unable to move, breathe, yada yada, fight....therefore...the reigning champion Thrud takes the title!" He held her hand up and the God's all cheered for her.
"NO WAY!!!!" Domix and I screamed simultaneously! Thrud would've been our final match!
We both sat down in emo poses...our fingers drawing on the dirt of the arena floor...no way could we have won that match...life sucked.
