Females were insane!
That very thought was echoed in an odd number of minds. Most of them belonged to students though there were a few teachers thinking it as well. The lunch room was a mess. Patches of ice were scattered at random on the floor, ceiling and walls. Here or there tables, chairs and an unfortunate student or two were encased in it. Everywhere there was food, trays, broken tables, shards of ice. It was all estimate to the battle between wind and ice that had lasted a total of three minutes before both Freon and Crystal were stopped.
Warren was very carefully thawing out Crystal's arm while Nurse Spex was tending to the whiplash and other assorted injuries Freon had. Principle Powers was looking on, surveying the damage and very silent. Aside from the busted tables and chairs, there was not all that much damage. Neither of the girls seemed at all repentant about the fight.
"Ouch! Watch it."
Pulling back instantly, he looked at Crystal. Her elbow could bend at last and she flexed it carefully. Ice cracked and fell away though likely she would have a nasty case of frostbite.
"Sorry."
Shrugging, she relaxed and he took her arm again, focusing on the task. Both of the girls were pronounced free to be punished about the same time. Crystal was trying to keep from rubbing her injured arm while Freon actually sat down very carefully due to spots that would be bruises later. Principle Powers regarded both of them before glancing at Warren then over at the young man that was standing noticeably close to Freon.
"I suppose it's best to settle this in private. Come with me."
Crystal and Freon rose to follow. At least Powers had the foresight to keep them apart. Warren and the other guy followed. Now that he had the time to think about it, the other guy happened to be none other than Sparky Nexcel. He was blond, athletic, likely hot to the girls. Something about the shade of his green eyes however put Warren on his guard. It had nothing to do with the fact this was Crystal's ex and Freon's newest boyfriend.
"Mr. Peace, Mr. Nexcel...I don't believe that you need accompany the ladies."
Warren hesitated. The girls were already in the detention room so he probably could speak up without sounding too...well, whatever. "Actually, Principle Powers, I was involved so I do have a role in what happened."
The older woman seemed a little surprised at that. Her gaze turned to Sparky next. For his part he simply shrugged. Relenting, the woman nodded and allowed the two young men to enter as well before she closed the door. This was going to be...interesting.

Another round of Save the Citizen. The only difference was, this period was reserved for six people. Each one was already fully suited up and simply waiting. Warren was not in the first pick so he settled himself for glaring daggers toward Speed and Lash who were on the floor of the gym, leering and waiting for their prey. That prey just happened to be Crystal and Freon. Anyone could tell that it was disaster waiting to happen.
Coach Boomer blew the whistle however so everyone went quiet. Lifting the clip board, he studied it for a moment.
"All right. For this round of Save the Citizen...Speed, you're partner is Freon. Lash, you're with Crystal."
Warren was not the only one to be stunned completely. Both bullies were slack-jawed in their surprise. Crystal hardly seemed to care while Freon was glaring daggers at the other girl. Coach Boomer frowned when none of the competitors gave any indication they had heard him.
"MOVE!"
Lash was the one to reluctantly head over and stand by Crystal at the far end of the arena. Speed however joined Freon in a heartbeat. She looked more disgusted than anything. When they were in their places, Boomer glanced to the clip board again.
"Okay. For this round, Speed and Freon are the Villains. Lash and Crystal, you're the Heroes. Since you know the rules by now, let's just get crackin'."
This was going to be bad. It was not only Warren who thought so as the shout came to begin. Speed instantly shot forward toward Crystal. The girl had already begun to move however as Freon had also fired a blast of ice at her. It gave Lash the perfect shot at Freon and he took it. Crystal used a spiral of wind to spin her around so Speed shot past her. It was going to be a very interesting fight that was for certain.
The barriers that protected those in the bleachers from any stray shots had been raised higher so no one else outside the arena would wind up injured. Still, a lot of spectators were leaning forward in their seats. Crystal was holding her own against both Speed's battering-ram charges and Freon's wild blasts. Lash had gotten caught but broke free by slamming his arm against the safety glass.
It took a sudden turn when Speed charged Crystal at the same moment Freon blasted a larger shot toward Lash. Naturally leaping out of the way with a boost from the wind, Crystal accidentally went straight into the shot that Lash had dodged. The strike hit her hard, instantly freezing the body armor and slamming her into the ground. A sharp crack that was not entirely from the ice shattering rose.
Even with the crowd's shouts of encouragement, Warren heard it. Coach Boomer stood, ready to bellow. Lash was right beside Crystal in an instant though and rolled her onto her back. Without warning, the wind blasted through the arena, sending Freon and Speed flying into the safety barrier. Luckily, it seemed she was only stunned as Lash pulled her back up to her feet.
With both of the designated Villains down and time nearly out, Crystal moved. Lash had the idea however and extended one arm to grab the light post just as Speed got moving. The result was a sling-shot that bounced Speed back and right into Freon, ruining her shot at Crystal who was already rising on the wind. She seemed to dance through the air to where the Citizen was just beginning the last fall toward the death-trap below.
Grabbing hold just as Freon's ruined shot caught the rope, her weight and momentum snapped it. The buzzer sounded just as she landed with the dummy safe and sound. Of course cheers rose, Speed and Freon were both glaring bloody murder. Round one was finished so it was going to be Warren and Sparky up next with whoever Coach Boomer picked to pair them off with. He noticed though that Crystal seemed unsteady on her feet.
"All right. Not bad. Peace and Sparky, you face off against Crystal and Lash as your villains."
