Chapter 1: Let the Last Match Begin.
"Tanya? Tanya?" The voice of little Tanya's father echoed through the mist. Tanya desperately looked for her father through the woods as she whipped her head back and forth, trying to see through the wilderness.
She was feeling lost and alone, she doesn't like when people played hide and seek with her because she never finds anyone who hides. "Dada?" She asked in her childish accent. "Dada, its not funny anymore." She wailed. "Dada?" There was no response and Tanya was getting scarred and annoyed.
She sat on the grass and hugged her knees as she dropped her head, her silky, black, long hair streamed down around her. "Tanya." She perked her head up as she heard her father say her name in a solid voice that was no longer an echo. He was standing, expanding his strong arm towards her. "Dada!" She screamed out loud and gracefully took her his hand.
"Why are you crying?" He asked her in a soft voice wiping her tears away as he picked her up. "I thought you left me." She said in her childish sweet voice as she sniffed her tears away. "Aww…now why would I do that?" He put her down and wiped her last tear.
"Look at this honey, do you know what this is?" He took out a blue-looking stone in front of her from his pocket. "A diamond?" She asked curiously as she examined the pretty thing in her father's hand. He chuckled and crouched down next to her. "No crystal-eyes." He handed her the stone. "It's your birth stone, sapphire." She looked up with her blue bright eyes. "What is a birth stone?" He picked her up again. "A birth stone is a stone that represents your time of birth." "Ohhhhhh…" Tanya trailed off as she stared at the stone, mesmerized.
The stone was pretty; she couldn't tear her eyes from this. "Honey, I want you to take this. Always carry it with you, understand? It will remind you of me." He put her down and she tore her eyes away from the stone and looked at her father in confusion. "But daddy, I see you everyday, why do I need such a thing." But her father was gone. "Daddy? Daddy!?"
"Daddy!" Tanya woke up sweating in her little bed. She sat up and wiped off the sweat from her eyes. She stretched and yawned and something fell on the ground scarring her out of her wits. "Ah!" She looked down on the floor and saw a blue stone lying there. She stood and picked it up. "Daddy?" She asked no one in particular.
She rushed downstairs as fast as she could into the living room and her father wasn't there like everyday. There was a note on the coffee table that she walked up to. "'Honey, I've gone away for a while but I'll come back. After all you're my only angel. Happy Birthday. If you'll be a good girl perhaps I'll buy two gifts instead of one.'" She read the note out loud and was mystified. Where could her dad go? What could be more important than her birthday? She had no clue but she trusted her father, when he says something he means it.
She turns on the T.V and sees Liandri Corporation name glowing in green and a voice was saying. "Good Morning everyone and welcome to Nuvision where you can watch all of the Unreal Tournament matches!" The screens flashed and a young man in black suit was standing in front of a huge crowd. He seemed to be in a stadium surrounded by the people. In the middles was this circle platform where it had a thin stand with a round button in the middle. On top of the stage was a huge screen where different images passed by quickly.
"As you all know, all of the contestants have battled and today we decide who will fight the almighty Jack Menace! The scores were in and only one man had made it to the top. XAN KRIEGOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They screamed out his name as though he was some sort of celebrity.
Tanya's eyes were flooding with tears. Her father went to fight in the tournament again. She hated when he competed and now he was here.
The two men stepped up to the platform, both geared up. He father was wearing an army outfit with strong boots. He also had a backpack that was blue and had navy marks. He was wearing the Blood Reavers suit, his old team he used to serve.
His enemy, Xan Kriegor, was geared to kill and looked deadly. He looked more of like a robot. His mask covered his face and every part of his body was covered with metal. Her father came closer to where the button is and pushed it hard with his fist. She couldn't figure out the name of the place. She looked at the screen and saw a round space station in space with 4 spaceships on the sides. She didn't need to know what the name of the place is. She simply knew, he was going to space…
(a/n): So what do you think? If you are confused about Tanya's father being the champion I don't blame you. Just read on. On the second chapter it will all make sense. This all follows the main idea of the Unreal Tournament. Please tell me how I did. Oh yeah, if there is something wrong tell me that as well. I'm trying to write my best!
