Instead of panicking, Kaela spun her tail, letting the electrified segments slice the incoming strikes apart.
Electricity ripped through unstable rifts, and the portals snapped shut violently.
The collapsing space made a harsh, tearing sound that grated on people's ears.
Kaela exhaled smoke."I hate you."
Vaelis bowed his head slightly."You have good instincts, so I can't hold back. No one wants to lose."
Kaela slashed in rapid arcs. Lightning carved jagged paths through the air.
Vaelis stayed inches ahead of each attack, slipping past her attacks by stepping through rifts.
Kaela released a powerful shot of lightning. It moved so fast, Vaelis wasn't fast enough to dodge.
He quickly opened a huge portal, swallowing the attack.
As the space buckled, it released bursts of pressure that rattled the arena.
Vaelis quickly surrounded himself with several portals, but Kaela had discovered something.
He can't store too much power in a portal. It'll just go unstable.
