The skeleton seemed to warp as the constructs of light and dark attacked it. Warp was the only word that could come close to what it did, and either way it dodged.

[color=0072bc]"nah, i think it's the opposite here."[/color]

Each time the serpents attacked, the skeleton dodged. After a while, the skeleton got close enough to Clarice that an attack was prevalent. Bones shot up out from under the clone's feet as she was stuck to the ground. Another blaster appeared to the side of Clarice and blasted her, as a smile appeared on the skeleton's face.

(Xoxi and Ixox)
The two women clashed in close-quarters, constantly moving, constantly attacking, and constantly blocking eachother. To others, this fight would last a lifetime it seemed. To the two actually fighting, it would last no more than ten minutes.

Xoxi, even though she was the original here, had the bad hand in the beginning of this situation. The new kid was just made, so she started out here with less energy than the clone.

Ixox, while she had more energy initially, has had to maintain Krieg's actions through all of this, so she was spending more energy. Making him carry her was one thing, having him fight alone was another. 

The battle became a test of endurance, whether or not the clone would give out first or the original was entirely up to fate. However, when one looked at it, the original was at the disadvantage as of current.

While the shadow kid sounded it right, it seemed to wince occasionally. It couldn't be explained now, but maybe in time it could be.

[color=a7a7a7]"Are you my mom...?"[/color]

Again, Alex had no idea who was his or her mom right now. Xoxi said it was her, but Claire was the first one called mom... it was confusing right now.
