>>5835092Gritting your teeth against the pain, recoiling you twist into a right turning kick, your boot slamming into his ring hand and knocking it towards his right side an instant before he can fire another attack from it. Following up on the motion you continue the twist, bringing your left around in a roundhouse aimed at his temple. Again he creates a slightly-spherical shield, bringing it up just in time to stop your kick from knocking his head off. Instead the blow knocks him off his feet, sending him sliding across the arena floor while you land. Then, with a final roar you look up, seeing your wife having bisected the dragon construct it finally shatters, the pieces dissolving into motes of yellow light as the crowd cheers.
“And that's one dragon down, I wonder how many more Sinestro's got, Juanita?” Dallas asks his robotic co-host.
“He probably won't go for the same trick twice, not when it doesn't help him get the win.” she replies, you rushing Sinestro while he's still down. Fully planning to end this fight here and now. However, as you swing, his body turns translucent, your right fist striking nothing as it should have hit him. Instead, your fist crashes into the ground, Sinestro smirking at you as he then phases into the ground.
“Tch!” you exhale through clenched teeth, pulling your hand out of the ground then going to the blade fragment still stuck in your left hand, grasping it and with a quick motion draw it free. Your blood flows for a moment until you reharden your Energy Body, compressing the injury and staunching the flow. You'll take care of that after the fight's complete. “Is that all you can do? Run away?”
“Not quite.” Sinestro replies, however it isn't him. Or, rather, isn't ONLY him. More than a dozen Sinestro all fly up and out of the ground, solidifying as all their rings begin glowing, that same yellow energy forming a sheathe around all bodies simultaneously. Then, with a smirk they all point their rings up, firing their light into the air. Confused, you turn to see what they're shooting, only for your jaw to drop at the construct they create. But that can't be, it's impossible! That monster doesn't exist, you un-created it and made sure it would never be born!
