Maya shrugged.
“Don’t be sorry. It’s your power,” she murmured, a bit tentatively. “Just-“
She cut herself off, looking away from Nero as the screams of the crowd directed her attention elsewhere. Damn it, had she missed the whole fight..?
She stood up as Soul entered, standing up to congratulate him, but quickly falling short as the two brothers made eye contact. Spirit wore a victorious smirk, and Soul’s face fell in dismay. Her stomach twisted with guilt as she watched him flee to the nearest restroom to hide in shame. Realizing that she was up next, she turned around to take initiative.

A little note slipped underneath the crack of the door, sliding gracefully next to Soul’s foot.
hey.
She gulped nervously, twiddling her thumbs. Five guys, three girls. Everyone’s bets were on the guys, not that she could blame them. Naturally, they were stronger, faster.
i know you’re hiding because you’re embarrassed. trust me, i probably would be, too. but for now, im up next.
Christian specifically had an amazing control over his power, as well as a wide range of abilities.
i’d really like to have your support here, cause. lets be honest. he’s probably gonna wipe the floor with me. but i’ll put up a fight, i promise!
Muscles tense with nerves, she bounced between her feet, taking deep breaths.
we should talk afterwards, too. about, y’know. this.
Could she win against Christian..?
so please watch me.
She’d have to try.
