-BOOOM!!!
-SWISSSH!!
-WHOOOSHHH!!!
The battlefield was a storm of chaos.
Sparks and explosions filled the air, a symphony of destruction as two blurring figures clashed with relentless fury.
They moved like streaks of light, disappearing and reappearing with each deafening sonic boom.
Each collision sent shockwaves reverberating through the golden sanctuary.
Craters scarred the once-pristine ground, only to be repaired moments later as the sanctuary's golden light worked tirelessly to restore itself.
But no matter how fast the restoration, it was barely keeping up with the devastation wrought by the two combatants—a blur of gold and grey, locked in an unending, violent dance.
"You've grown stronger..."
The words came from the other Riley, his tone neutral, almost bored, as he sidestepped a golden streak of energy that gouged a deep scar in the ground.
