Astrid is now more focused than ever

But Kat's grin is nowhere to be found

Sparring only hammers the wedge

Deeper and deeper down

"Come on Kat, don't hold back

Give me everything you've got!"

"Okay then, but if I win

Please do not be distraught!"

The joy that they once felt

Replaced by anxiety

Regardless of who wins

Neither will truly succeed

Forces of nature taken human form

But in their heads rages the true storm

The girls have pushed one another for years

But that pushing grows more severe

More alike than different- yet dissonant

Notes of the same key- but not content

So they go full-steam

Set the field agleam

Kat gives Astrid what she wants

A challenge worthy of her skills

But is Kat's natural power matched

By Astrid's experience and will?

Frustrated, the girls grow reckless

Draw more power than they should

Blasts sail wide, but if they hit

They may be more than could be withstood

Through intense focus Grub's voice finally cuts through

"That's enough, settle down, what's gotten into you?

Ghael's got stuff for us to do!"
