"TAKE THIS!" Karma shouted using his armoured gauntlet to block Nakamura's sword "So you all use the same type of sword, just different colours huh?"
"Yes we do, we all carry a type of sword call an energy resonance sword, basically while these blade are physical one unlike the enegry blades that doesn't mean they're not powerful. An use an energy current to make minute sonic wave along the blade allowing us to strengthen our blocks and attacks" Nakamura said as she struck Karma's claw making it vibrate from the sonic energy.
"My hand!" Karma shouted
"Oh yeah it almost send a vibration into the opponent's hand relaxing it to make their grip lower" Nakamura said
"Damn it!" Karma said running in again. Suddenly his claws lit up sending out waves of heat when he swiped at Nakamura. He then drew one of his hands back and stabbed at the Valkyrie
"Plasma tipped claws, DUDE where can I get a pair?" Nakamura asked
"Special order" Karma said
"No fair" Nakamura said
"It is because I am Karma the Red Dragon!" Karma shouted running into battle
"And I am Rio Nakamura the Solar Maiden!" Nakamura cried
"So you ready to give up cowboy?" Yada asked as her sword was pointed at Sugino
"Must we fight, I think you are beautiful" Sugino said drawing out a basic green energy sabre, he had yet to get a custome one "Besides I'm Tomohito Sugino the Base Knight" he proudly said
"Nice to meet you" Yada said charging in with her blade fully drawn and swinging while Sugino tried to block it while back peddling "I am Toka Yada: The Cerulean Siren" she said "The most alluring of all the Valkyries. It has been said I've charmed doznes of my opponents, and not just the men" Yada said
"Holy...Umpires" Sugino muttered before switching his grip and swung "BATTER UP!" he shouted hitting her like he would hit a baseball
"Not what I was expecting" Yada said
"I'm more of a baseballer then a knight" Sugino said "Besides I don't really feel comfortable hitting a girl"
"Aww, aren't you sweet, But don't worry I'm protected; however if you knock me out in one of the rounds in this match. I'll gladly go for coffee with you" Yada flirted
"YOU'RE ON!" Sugino shouted
"Whoa, nice kick" Maehara said as he tried to stab Okano with hsi weapon: A Mass Energy Sword Staff, a weapon with a curved blade on each end that generated electrical like energy, he could also split the blades into two said "Maybe you would like to get dinner one time" he said
"Sorry, but Unlike Yada, I don't date my opponents" Okano said "For I am Hinata Okano: The Silver Sentinel" she said
"And you have the ability of a gymnast, I like that in a girl, Also I am Hiroto Maehara: The Knight of Arenas!"
"How did you get that title?" Okano asked
"I fight best in the Arena, I'm currently ranked fourth overall, but second in the Arena matches. Plus the whole Gladiator motif" Maehara said
"Ah" Okano said deflecting his blade with her own.
Isogai stood still while his opponent fiddled withg something
"Please just continue to wait a moment" Okuda said
"Take you time please" Isogai said pulling out a baton with a large circle on it
"What's that?" Okuda asked
"Just my weapon" Isogai said hitting a switch on the baton which made it project a white light before setting down, Okuda was amazed.
"Is that a Hyper-Lance?" she asked
"Yes, I am Yuma Isogai, the White Falconry Knight" he said as his Hyper Lance was at the ready
"I'm Manami Okuda, The Gadgeteer Knight, I serve her highness faithfully" Okuda said as she had a blaster instead of a sword
"WHOA WHAT!" Isogai shouted as he used hsi lance to dodged the energy shots. "That is nuts"
"I'm more of a ranged fighter" she said firing off several shots.
The last ones to engaged were Hayami and Chiba.
"I'm Ryunosuke Chiba, The Sniper" Chiba said
"I'm Rinka Hayami, the Sharpshooter" Hayami said
"Nice to meet you" He said before pulling out a ionized edged sword and swung it around in a circle. Hayami was forced to jump backwards several times to dodge. Suddenly something lodged into her armour
"What?" she asked
"Electromagnetic dart, it was design to shut down your Armour" Chiba said
"Very well" Hayami said as she was the first to be knocked out in the duel.
"1 point to the Dragoons" the announcer said.
Soon the battle raged on with the Dragoons wining the first round. Soon the Valkyries were using combination attacks to knock out the Dragoons. The first one out was Sugino thanks to Nakamura and Yada tripping him up and flipping him out. Next was Isogai thanks to Hayami and Okuda. She used a hardlight hammer while Hayami used an electromagnetic whip to cripple his systems.
"Crap" Karma said as he was pushed back by Okano and Yada.
"We are the strongest" Nakamura said as Karma was knocked out with Maehara and Chiba in one blow earning the girls the second round.
"I should get ready" Nagisa said from up in the stands
"Let's go!" Karma said as he rushed in with his claws barred. Nakamura went to her gauntlet and activate something revealing a solar energy dagger. "WHAT" he shouted as he was knocked out
"You underestimated me" Nakamura said
"1 point to the Valkyries!" The annoucer said.
"Not good" Sugino said as Yada slid under him and tripped him
"Sorry cutie" Yada said winking under her helm.
"Ow" Sugino groaned
"BACKS TOGETHER NOW!" Isogai shouted
"Too late" maehara said as he was kicked up into the air and landed outside the ring.
"Damn" Isogai said as Chiba was defeat by Hayami grabbing his own weapon and firing a couple of darts disabling him.
"Is it too late to substitue?" Isogai asked.
"We'll allow you to swap out, but who are you swapping out with?" Nakamura asked
"him" Isogai said "Even though I shouldn't" as Nagisa entered the room
"MECHA DRIVE!" Nagisa shouted as he became surrounded by blue light
"Have a medical team on standby" Isogai said into a communicator. Once the light surrounding Nagisa died down he was revealed to be wearing a fusion of traditional black knight armour with a futuristic look to it. Slowly Nagisa walked into the arena
"I am Nagisa Shiota, The Elite Black Knight" he said activated his high frequency energy Claymore and twirled it "Come" Nagisa said as Nakamura and her Solar blade ran up to him. Only for him to block it with a prism shield. Nakamura was grabbed by the foot and thrown across the arena. Nexct Okano flipped over to him, sidestepping her before using his shield to knock her over to Nakamura.
"Take this" Yada said as the other three tried to attack over head with their sword. Nagisa quickly blokced all three of them at the same time. And shoved them back.
"Should we?" Okuda asked
"No, we should continue on" Hayami said shooting Chiba's dart weapon. But Nagisa carefully dodged each one and with a few steps was in close combat range on Hayami. With a couple of strikes Hayami's armour deactivates.
"Next" Nagisa said coldly
"We surrender" the other two said
"Wise choice" Nagisa said as he won the match
"PLEASE SPARE HIM, DON'T KILL OUR SON!" a woman's voice cried out
"Not now" Nagisa whimpered before deactivating his armour and nearly passed out.
"WHERE'S THE MEDICAL TEAM?" Karma shouted
"How bad, on a scale of one to ten?" Isogai asked
"I'm here" a girl with frizzy orange hair said as she rushed over him. The Valkryies were shocked. None of them hit him and he was now in pain.
"What happened?"
"How bad Nagisa?" Isogai asked again as his felt his hand being gripped
"Seven" Nagisa groaned
"Shit; get him to the INFIRMARY NOW!" the medic said.
"How bad?" Karasuma said running into the infirmary
"He said it was a seven, but our sensor are detecting a seven and a half almost eight. It must have been a doosy" the girl sdaid
"Alright; everyone by Kurahashi and Karma out!" Karasuma said as teh rest of the dragoon left the room. "Give it to him" Karasuma said
"But sir, it hasn't reached that level yet" Kurahashi said nearly in tears as Nagisa screamed out in pain
"I know it isn't but I don't knwo what will happen if it reaches level 9 again" Karasuma said
"Okay I'll get it" Kurahashi said
"In the meanwhile Karma keep him level" Karasuma said "I have to do and log this incident in" the chairperson said
"Easy pal, Kurahashi is getting it for you, we'll put you to sleep and then" Karma
"Bad news: The sedative's all gone and we're not getting any until next week" Kurahashi said making Karma freeze "I'm Sorry. But this could be it" she whimpered
"No, I refuse to believe that, he still...he still...he's still got to get them back, he can't die until then!" Karma roared.
"Excuse me" a delicate voice said
"Your highness" the pair said
"Can I try something" Kaede said walking over to the boy and taking his hand.
"Go ahead, he's a goner anyway" Karma said
"Karma!" Kurahashi scolded him.
"Ok here goes anything" Kaede said sitting down and started to softly sing
"The sun starts through with a red afterimage
On the back of my closed eyelids
I put the notebook and pen in my bag
So let's start walking
No matter how I much I draw it doesn't become beautiful
The paints that I choose are at not at fault
That shooting star I saw last midnight
I still remember
I was waiting for
Hello, Shooting Star
Hello, Shooting Star again
I've been waiting for you
That girl that dreams
Is still right here, ah ah
Just like that day, ah ah
Hello Shooting Star
Hello Shooting Star, again
I'm waiting for you
Please don't stop dreaming
Even if you're crying, ah ah
Even if you're sliming ah ah
Shine again"
Kurahashi couldn't believe what they were looking at. In the time the princess had sung, Nagisa's pain levels dropped from 8 back down to five
"Whoa" Kurahashi said
"What...was that?"
"The lullaby of the shooting star" Kaede said
"Whatever it was, it worked. And quicker than the normal sedative" Kurahashi said
"He always falls asleep whenever he heard it" Kaede said kissing his forehead before leaving the room.
"What is going on between those two?" Karma asked
Hey guys Grizz here, now I hope that wasn't too rushed, I'm not always the best with fight scenes. Also the Lullaby of the Shooting Star aka Hello Shooting Star will be an arc song, meaning it will have an impact on the story. Hopefully the more I reveal things the more that song becomes important. Don't worry I know what I'm doing
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside
