Xander never missed any of the fights in which Tenebra took part, carefully observing her fighting style and methods, and had put one of many goals to reach: to fight against her. He began training harder, gave his best in the future battles and continued to observe her matches, carefully planning the possible strategies. One day, he finally decided to approach her and challenged her, despite the fact part of him kept repeating to himself she will refuse or something like that. He still couldnt believe when she accepted, and for a moment a strange feeling he never felt before streamed right through his spine. Arriving at the agreed time, he realized the arena was already filled with students who came to see how will the match end, which created extra pressure on him. But he managed to shut them off, and all he saw was his opponent, waiting for him to arrive. He took a deep breath before finally approaching and moments later, as ref gave the signal for the beginning, he rushed towards Tenebra, determined to show her all the moves he has, without letting her knock him down so easily..............
As the match ended, he realized he may have bit off more than he can chew, but he knew that he at least didnt go down so fast as everyone asumed he will, as he accepted every blow she delivered, and returned with same brute force. He didnt go quietly, and he made sure everyone knows that.......
Something I planned to draw for a long time, but couldnt find enough time. It was a bit hard to draw the poses, but I am glad with the final result =)
