The Final Dance [Pt 1]

I readied myself to begin the fight that would determine the fate of the world.

It didn't take me very long.

>WHOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH!!!<

My opponent, the Nether, floated a short distance away, his form now shifting and warping in the void. Clearly, he was trying to evolve once more.

'Don't even bother!'

I reached out with my mind, feeling the surrounding energy respond to my call. I began to draw it towards me, coalescing it into a swirling vortex of power around my body.

This way, not only my strength, but also my speed, stamina, and everything else about me would improve drastically.

'I can now fight on equal grounds!' I thought to myself.

The Nether responded in kind, drawing on his own power to create a vortex of dark energy that seemed to suck the light out of the stars. His darkness was restricted to his immediate vicinity, thanks to the density of Aether I made surround him.
