A thunderous roar echoed across the landscape, and at its source stood Raven, her aura ballooning in size. Dark energy fluxed outward; tendrils of shadows swallowed the shade, blackening the meadows beneath her heels. The power she wielded scintillated him, and his skin crawled with goosebumps. His smile grew as bolts of amethyst crackled along the surface of his milky white skin.
Raven had begun to show him the true power that she possessed. The unease he felt, the nervousness—for Seven, it was like a shot of adrenaline. His gaze lingered on her as she reached between her bosoms and unfurled a strand of hair. Even at a distance, the PTO Patriot could sense that it was imbued with mystical energy—energy that he hadn't felt in all of his travels in space, even in the unknown regions. When she consumed the strand, it appeared as if a serene calm had overtaken her, and her energy sputtered anew with vigor.
The half-fae slipped a bangle onto her wrist, and her body was encased in a veil of chalk. It was fitting; Seven couldn't help but think so. Her form was ablaze with ivory as Olon shone above her, and his was of ebony, with Vari upon his back. And together, they shone brighter than any star ever could.
"Are you saying you love me?"
"I--"
The Dark Fae vanished. Her movement was so quick that it had left the earth beneath her feet undisturbed, yet Seven managed to track her in spite of it, having become more and more accustomed to her speed. His head turned to peer over his shoulder, and his gaze met Raven, who was now at his back with another dark disc buzzing above her palm.
She tossed it towards the PTO Patriot's back, and his barrier expanded to meet it. Whereas before it had been nearly opaque due to the dense amount of Ki that permeated within it, it has since become translucent through the battering it took.
The disc shaved away at the splinters of the barrier; sparks of obsidian pierced through the cracks and sliced against Seven's skin, marring him with cuts that began to ooze beads of blood. The disc dissipated into shards that shattered the dome that encased him, and in turn, Seven was bathed in fragmented daggers of onyx, his skin now sliced even more.
He grimaced and retreated downward to keep Raven at a distance, molding another energy shield to aid in his defense. The shell that encased him was larger than the last, for it had to be to meet the volley that Raven fired towards him. The rapid succession of bolts struck his shield, peppering it. It held firm in spite of Raven's overwhelming force, for the aftershocks of the blasts were powerful enough to carve craters into the soil and generate a cloud of dust that wafted through the air.
The volley had pushed Seven's body back against the soil, and the concussive force alone left his bones quaking. PTO Patriot had noticed a hole in the ground as he had been pushed back, and it was just a stone's throw away from himself, recognizing that it came as a result of his own blast barrage earlier in the fight.
With the smoke as his veil, he moved so quickly that he appeared to have been nothing more than a purple streak. He managed to get out of dodge of the half-Fae's wail, having grown accustomed to its radius and range, recognizing that as long as he avoided the epicenter, it grew less effective, but the force behind this shout in particular was harsher than the last, for it felt as if the very planet itself cried with her. In a flash, Seven managed to reach asylum underground, and beneath the surface, Seven's scant source of light came from the rays of the twin suns that shone overhead. From the light bloomed a globe of emerald that floated in his palm, its size larger than before.
He shot it from beneath the surface, and it split the soil in two as it careened towards Raven. This time there would be no misdirection, for the blasts would track her in intermittent waves so as not to allow themselves to be tangled and collapse as one hive.
Should a pair of the green blasts lose track of her energy and otherwise miss their mark, a second pair would remain in orbit around her, stalk her, and then strike at a different angle. The third pair would do the same, orbiting their target until the second pair erupted, only moving in to strike at the most opportune moment.
This would continue on and on, totaling in twelve separate pairs. They moved as if they had been guided by another's will. That was the secret of his unique technique, a secret that made it quite potent.

Raven's disc had done what she had hoped - cut through the rest of the barrier surrounding Seven's body, splintering into fragments of ebony. Small droplets of blood began to dribble from various wounds on his body, and she smiled - she loved the sight of red on pale white.
Red was her favorite color. From the way the leaves in Autumn turned a deep burgundy, to crimson liquid that leaked from her marks when she had taken contracts, and the color of her own hair - it was a beautiful hue that she had always appreciated; and she loved it even more, now that it was taking over Seven's skin.
The PTO Patriot retreated, and she watched as he erected yet another barrier - which made her roll her eyes. When was she going to actually get to have fun with him, without all of these strange defenses?
After her blasts pushed him backward, leaving craters and drag marks in the soil where he had been repelled, There was smoke surrounding the area. She wasn't quite sure that he could actually hear her wail, but assumed that he had once again, gotten out of the area of effect. She stepped forward, and sensed a huge source of energy forming somewhere underneath her. The Fae woman got into a defensive position, her heart racing in anticipation.
Suddenly, the wheat fields parted - no, they were forced apart - and the ground split. The same green orbs blasts he had used on her moments before made their way toward her, and she raised her arms, taking the full force of the first six blasts on various parts of her forearms. Bruises began to form, and she growled in frustration - that hurt. She didn't, however, notice the second blast coming from behind her, and fell forward into the dirt as her back was assaulted with the full-force of his attacks. As soon as they stopped assaulting her, she pushed herself back onto her feet, coughing up more spit, and walked toward the hole.
Seven must have hidden underneath the crust of the planet to gain an advantage on her. It was the only explanation. She jumped down, ignoring the slight pain in her calves as she landed. Once she was able to fully sense where Seven was, she rushed toward him, rubbing her arms and giving him a small grin.
"That one hurt a little," she began. "But you never answered my question."
She waited for a few moments to allow him to respond, before charcoal ki began to coat both of her feet. Then, she lunged for him, attempting to throw a charged kick at his shins with her right. The moment her foot hit the ground, she would use her left to throw yet another kick at his stomach.
She didn't stop with her assault, but allowed that ki to move from her legs, slithering up her body and coating her palm, and aiming to throw her palm directly against his abdomen. Then, with her left hand, she transferred the energy, and threw a hard left hook at his jaw.
Her hope was that he wouldn't realize just how cornered he was in this small, cave-like area - that her attacks would distract him long enough that she could open her maw, and let out that ear-piercing shriek one final time.

Seven's attack was meant to confuse and confound Raven by design, striking at her intermittently from unorthodox angles to overwhelm her. She may have been quick, extremely so, which was why he had to will his attack to swarm her like a hive of insects—no different than the ones that the Dark Fae had subjected him to so that she could press her attack.
Still, Raven was a tough one, as Seven knew, which was all the more reason that he enjoyed playing with her. It was possible that she enjoyed pain as much as he did, and her resilience was admirable.
Her tattered obsidian robes clung loosely from her skin, and her marred flesh glistened underneath the twin suns when she made her approach to the PTO Patriot, her grin small yet amicable.
"That one hurt a little," she began, nursing the wounds on her arms.
"But you never answered my question."
Seven hesitated to speak, and for a moment, there was only the sound of the wind brushing against the bushels of wheat in the desolate meadow.
His expression turned thoughtful, and his eyes glistened with curiosity. The intrigue came from his own thoughts and how to make sense of them. To verbalize one's feelings was definitely a unique undertaking for him.
"I..." The feeling came again. His stomach fluttered, and his chest felt as if a viper had coiled around his chest. He wasn't used to this; was this bad? Was there something wrong with him? The thrills of combat excited him, as did Raven, but when his mouth opened to speak, an unseen force hushed him to a whisper. So Seven stood there underneath the glow of the twin suns, his mouth open, with no words daring to escape.
"...I think so." He finished his thought, and his shoulders felt lighter, as if a weight had been lifted, yet his mind remained abuzz, almost as if it were about to float from his body.
The sight of Onyx Ki broke the spell, and Seven, on instinct, fell back into his stance; however, it wasn't as easy to maintain as it had been earlier. Blood from his open wounds seeped onto the ground, dripping like a faucet. A bead sprinkled atop a strand of wheat, and not a moment after Raven pounced on him. Her leg surged with dark energy, and it landed squarely on his shin.
Seven nearly buckled upon the pressure of the blow of the Dark Fae's attack, but he remained steady as the crystals themselves, unyielding his ground. Raven nimbly rose her other leg when her previous foot touched upon the grime and snuffed out the strand of blood-soaked wheat. Her heel housed the surging jolt of energy, and it slammed directly into his sternum.
The PTO Patriot backpedaled, yet his base remained strong, opting to widen it for a more defensive posture. Her energy circulated to her palm, and Seven raised his barrier; its vestiges fractured when her energy pierced through to bite at his flesh. Raven's energy roused to her left fist, and Seven was unprepared for it, his jaw a victim to a vicious blow that staggered him until his back was pressed against a crystalized bed of sediment.
Raven took full advantage and unleashed her deafening shriek. Seven felt his body tense up, much like it had done before when they battled on Earth, except this time it was much more potent. He staggered forth, swayed, and dropped to his knees, his hands bracing him.
Seven's energy was oddly muted, with no sign of an aura or a veil to shield him in spite of his powered state—a sign that his power may have been occupied elsewhere.
"No..." Seven breathed out. He looked up, his emerald eyes matching Raven's, and his expression was adorned with an unsettlingly mischievous smile.
"...I know that I do."
Light emanated beneath Raven's feet, and golden orbs shot forth from beneath her. They were less gold, unlike the star of Vari, and more amber, akin to Raven's eyes. They numbered in the dozens, and they collapsed upon the Dark Fae, some from below, but most circled above like vultures, and attempted to drive her down further into the ground.
Seven tried his best to make use of such an opening; his body pulsed with an amethyst flare when he pursued her and fired off a crackling golden beam of energy that sectioned off like shotgun shells to hit her center mass. The PTO Patriot had been so close in his pursuit that he had nearly pressed his hand against her abdomen when he did so.
His aura flared to new heights and illuminated the abyss. His hands were raised above his head and he placed a modicum of distance between himself and her. Seven prepped his energy into his palm and then unleashed a thin blast that the untrained eye could not track.
Then an explosion would erupt, whether the blast itself had struck her or not, large enough to engulf nearly the whole of the Crystal Meadows in a devastating display of power that would, assuredly, forever change the map of the terrain. His goal was for Raven to get swallowed up in the nuclear eruption, one that drained the color from the skies and the very crystals themselves awash with white light.

"...I know that I do." Her breath hitched at the words - she didn't quite know what to feel in this particular situation. Did Seven even truly know what love was, what the words he had proclaimed meant, or was he just saying what he felt in the heat of their fight? She couldn't tell, couldn't quite understand her own feelings. There was a feeling of heat starting at her toes, and ice in her veins as she tried desperately to process the words. Wait. Heat wasn't starting at her toes... it was around her! She looked down, just in time to see tawny energy shooting up and crashing into her body. A gasp escaped her lips, and she hissed through gritted teeth at the impact of Seven's attack. He wasn't done, and fired off more blasts of gold energy that careened into her abdomen, knocking the wind from her gut. Raven inhaled deeply, barely managing to regain her breath as Seven's aura began to glow brighter than it had before. She felt the hairs on the back of her neck prickle as he raised his arms into the sky, and the moment that she saw energy charging up into his palms, she panicked. The Dark Fae moved as quickly as her feet would carry her, jumping up and landing on the edge of the wheat fields so swiftly that her shins hurt upon impact. Her only thought was getting as far away from Seven as she possibly could in that moment. She kept running, barely reaching the end of the crystal meadows before a deafening eruption sounded behind her. She twirled, red hair flinging in her face, and watched as the white light began to slowly disintegrate, revealing Seven, standing in the middle. He looked resplendent, bathed in the white light, and for a moment, she could see herself loving him. She could see herself locked in a battle with him for the rest of their lives, if he so wished. Yet, she could also feel how close she had come to being in the center of that blast - how close she had come to getting swallowed up by that explosion and being seriously injured. She reached into another pocket in her dress, and pulled out a small, red pepper, tinged with orange, and took a few bites. It was yet another item from Neraides - the Ignis Pepper from the Summer Realm. Immediately upon ingesting it, she felt the capsaicin tickling her tongue, and began to hop from foot to foot. She wasn't affected by the spice, but it rather acted as something that spurred her to do better, to move faster... to be stronger. Then, she reached in between her breasts, groping around for a few moments before pulling out a small vial full of glittering liquid, and tipping it down her throat. More of the ki that she had expended seemed to return to her, almost as if she were drawing it from the large blast that Seven had just thrown at her. "You could've really hurt me!" She called, a small laugh escaping her lips as she moved back toward him, the bushels of wheat now reduced to either ash, or crumpled toward the ground. They weren't tickling her ankles anymore - which gave her a sense of melancholy. As she walked, she fumbled in her pocket again, pulling out a small ball. Once she approached Seven, she coughed, and threw it toward him, a bright light escaping the small orb in an attempt to stun him. The Dark Fae didn't wait to make sure it had worked, instead closing in and covering her palm with her magick, and throwing it at his abdomen. She wanted to disrupt his ki even further - wanted to drain him of energy so that she could sit atop him and proclaim her victory once he was spent. She didn't stop there, and moved in, aiming punches at each of the vital areas he had - his heart, his lungs, his stomach, spleen... she moved lower, ducking and attempting to hit his kidneys and appendix. His body was already weak - the blood dripping from the cuts she had inflicted with her energy disk was proof enough of that. She wanted to hurt him like he had tried to hurt her, too... if he was going to try and blow her up, then she would try and inflict as much pain as he would have on her.

When the meadows were bathed in white light, it was as if the world itself stood still. Seven's technique was indeed a powerful one, for its intended purpose was to facilitate the eradication of a planet's population. An entire city that was once a sprawling metropolis could be reduced and wiped off the map, leaving behind only a crater of rubble.
And that crater stared back at Seven as he remained suspended in the air; his breathing growing haggard. Sweat droplets dripped from his brow, and the wounds that he sustained earlier in the battle remained open. The sensation of his lifeblood oozing from his cuts made him feel weaker, yet he still persisted by regulating his breathing.
The warmth of the twin suns was like a blanket on his back; his form remained steady as his eyes pierced through the cloud of dirt and debris. When the rubble subsided and the dust settled back onto the earth, the Dark Fae's form came into view.
It was hard to tell from Seven's vantage point how much damage she had sustained from his blast, but he was glad that she was still alive in spite of his attempts to reassure himself that she wouldn't be felled by such an attack.
The PTO Patriot's smile grew wide, and he studied her gait, his grin lingered as he descended towards the ground.
"You could've really hurt me!" She cried out, her laugh was cordial in spite of her words.
Seven widened his smile, and his pearly white teeth glistened underneath Vari's rays. "But I knew you'd survive because you're amazing!" He exclaimed to her.
The PTO Patriot took note of Raven's hand jostling for something in her pocket as she approached him. Seven raised his hand, his instincts alarmed him. A blast lashed out of his palm, but his wounds dulled this action. An amethyst bolt careened upward past the ball that then erupted into a blinding light. The PTO Patriot groaned, and his eyes welled shut. Tears streamed down the length of his cheeks, and he staggered backwards.
He knew Raven was close; his body responded to her presence. His hair stood on end, her Ki mingled with his, sensual and flirtatious, encompassing and suffocating; the darkness that lied beneath the surface was a mirror to his own Ki, which had often been described as imposing.
The half-fae's footsteps were like a war drum in his ears, and Seven had to measure her distance through the sound. One... two... his eyes remained shut, and he attempted to lock onto something, anything, to escape from her clutches.
Even though his body yearned for him not to.
...Three...?
Crunch!
Her foot slammed onto the soil. Seven had miscounted her steps. Raven struck his abdomen clean; her energy circulated throughout his skin, with his gut taking the worst of it. The PTO Patriot steadied his focus; the attack had thrown him back, and he counted the steps.
One....
...Two....
Raven's charge was in concert with his steps, and once more he regained his focus. He locked on to something—anything.
His misplaced blast.
Seven's mind was his canvas, and his will was the brush. He pictured himself in the place of his sailing blast, which continued its ascent. For the purpose of his technique, visualization was key.
One....
He moved in an instant, in the truest sense of the word.
He had locked onto his own blast and appeared directly next to it; his body materialized high into the ozone, where the air was at its thinnest.
Seven gasped and descended downward until breathing came easy once more. His eyes had remained shut, but his tears had dried up, so he worked them and blinked until the haze dissipated.
His Ki erupted around him, the PTO Patriot called upon his reserves to fuel him, and, while he remained a sound distance above, he spewed forth a torrent of flame that coiled in circles, but not as rain but instead as a tempest, an inferno tornado that aimed to catch Raven within its center to burn away at her skin.

Round 3.
The writing is noticeably worse on both ends. It's not that the writing has become bad per se, so maybe I'm being too harsh. The descriptions are just becoming thinner, and overall I don't feel as pleased reading it as I was in previous rounds. It's hard to identify specific examples of what I mean, but the general vibe feels like there is less effort being thrown in. I'm not punishing anybody for this, as it's now 3 rounds into a 1 on 1 battle, so fatigue could be setting in for both writers. I appreciate that even when you two aren't at your best, the writing is still legible and interesting, though I would say the environment you two are battling in is taking the most damage from the drop in quality. The character development, dialogue, and descriptions of attacks are still mostly fine.
Personally, this round is a tossup to me after reading it through, so I'll leave the RP Award with Seven. Since he had the earlier swing with writing momentum, it now being pretty even in writing still probably would favor him overall.

Seven floated towards the ground, and as he did so he noticed that Raven's clothes had been completely burnt to a crisp. She didn't seem particularly hurt, and it wasn't as if they hadn't fought naked before, but essentially, the "game" was about to change.
"We should finish at my place," Seven suggested, crouching down so that Raven could ride on his back.
"Oh! Let me tell me about my assignment..."
