Axel caught the reflected chakrams like a professional. He'd sparred against Roxas recently, but it was only training. Nothing like this. Every slash of Roxas' keyblades were parried, though the brute force of it was enough to push him back a few steps.

Getting an ice spell to the face is never pleasant, so he leaped back to keep his distance. He couldn't do that forever, either. The few ice crystals that dared remain on Axel's coat melted quickly as he reignited his weapons for his next attack. "I'm not sure if you're admirable or just stupid!" he yelled, slamming both chakrams into the Coliseum floor. A cone-shaped rush of dark flame raced along the ground right for Roxas.
