Actually, Child B will start to imitate Child A. They will each give one another the balls if the other desires it. Their rivalry is over generosity now, much like Nathan and Mithrandanes. In other words, Child A will either expose the empty desire in Child B or simply change Child B for the better without overtly exposing the mechanism. They will then be at peace.
Obviously this is all speculation. Child A should not necessarily act to convert Child B, but rather to act in a way that doesn't encourage the rivalry. But these children, being the only two "in existence", must imitate one another. They are human, so in some sense, there will be no end. Luckily, one of them is Dr. Jackson's child.
