Chapter 1: The Tournament
(Odd POV)
"Cmon guys, Ulrich's match is about to start.", I shouted
"Who is he going to face first?" asked Jeremie over the roar of the crowd.
"Someone named Thomas, a guy from America. I heard he is pretty vicious, they say the last fight he was in he broke this guys leg." I said.
"Ulrich can't have too much trouble, I mean he scored 2nd in the preliminaries." said Jeremie in a not so convincing voice.
"Shhhh its starting!"
The lights darkened over the large stadium and a black smoke covered the blue mat and the announcer's voiced boomed,"Welcome to the Youth International Fighting Championship , our first competitors placed in the top of the overall preleminaries, welcome the challenger Ulrich Stern and the reigning and undefeated champion Thomas Miller!"
(Ulrich POV)
Oh no, how did i get pitted against him, anyone but him, maybe I could throw the match, but no Yumi is watching, damnit damnit damnit I'm screwed.
Ready,set,go!
I took a defensive stance but somehow he was here before my block was up and I felt a hard blow to my stomach and another to my left jaw. The pain was unbeliavably powerful but I charged head down to tackle him thinking I could catch him off guard.I was wrong. He grabbed me and tossed me over his head. Flying through the air I wondered how he can be this powerful.As soon as I landed I began to get up but was knocked down by a kick to the back of my head.I fell back and saw Thomas look at me with a strange yet familar look in his eyes. Then everything goes black.
(Jeremie POV)
"What just happened?" I said.
"I...I...think Ulrich...lost." stuttered Aelita.
"But the match was so short..." said Yumi.
"Cmon lets go talk to him he's leaving now." said Odd while walking towards the exit.
(Ulrich POV)
How did I lose, how. He was supernatural like he was ... possesed. Wait his eyes, they seemed familiar. Oh no.
"I've found one."
I turned to see my opponent in a black trench coat and sun glasses with his long black hair sweeping down to his shoulders while advancing towards me.
"What do you want?" I said.
"First off I'm sorry I humiliated you in the match, second I have a job to find you, now where are your friends!" shouted Thomas
At this point everyone else showed up.
"Ah there you are, there I found them now you fulfill your part of the deal." said Thomas seemingly to an unseen person.
"Now destroy them!"
I looked for the source of the voice but I couldn't find it.
Then Thomas shouted, "No, that wasn't part of the deal!"
The disembodied voice said, "Fine I'll do this myself"
Thomas grabbed his head and fell to his knees and said "No, I won't let you"
A surge of electricity shocked Thomas and his sun glasses fell off. He stood up and the XANA symbol flickered into his eyes.
Yeah sorry for the short chappy but it has to start somewhere. R&R please.
