Chapter 10: Champion vs. Challenger

The final match has finally come between Travis and Keizo. Whoever won the match would be facing the greatest champion swordsman. Travis and Keizo drew their swords and began the battle. Keizo immediately tackled Travis and slashed him with his sword. But Travis immediately jumped away and avoided his slash attack. They both wielded their swords and fought with them. Everyone in the audience was amazed about the match that they thought it was pretty exciting than any other matches they saw.

"I sure hope Travis will take Keizo down that easily," said Jade.

"Oh, don't worry, he will take him down alright; and for him, it's a piece of cake," said Vickie. "Just like he used the sword of light to take the enemies down easily."

"T'ch, you bet. Right now, he's in the tournament using the wooden sword against Keizo. Do you think he has the guts to take him down with that sword?"

"I believe he has the skills to do that."

Travis and Keizo wielded their swords as they were still battling face to face. Keizo began to use his slash attack once again on Travis, but he immediately dodged his attack and slashed him behind. When Keizo got a direct hit, he began using his spin attack at him. Travis did the backflip two times and leapt over him to avoid his spin attack. Then, he immediately ran after him and slashed him directly. Keizo poked him in his stomach and pushed him away.

When Travis fell down to the ground, the audience reacted as some of them could hardly watch the scene. Even Vickie and Jade were shock by that scene as they couldn't believe that Travis was done for. Tohru, Ching, and Bryan were rooting for Travis as they would never give up on him. They were still believe in him that he could actually win this match, face the champion, and claim the grand prize.

Suddenly, Keizo began to strike Travis with his sword. Travis quickly rolled over from getting a direct hit and kicked his sword from his hand. Keizo quickly slid down to retrieve his sword on time, but Travis jumped over him and caught the sword. Now, he held two swords and pointed directly at Keizo.

"It's over, Keizo, you lose," said Travis. "You might as well surrender."

"Grr, you may have won this battle, fool, but I have other plans to come up with," said Keizo, as he started to run away from him.

The audience roared with a big cheer and a round of applause. Travis had finally won the match and defeated Keizo. He was so happy that he raised his hand at the audience and waved at them. Bryan, Ching, and Tohru gave him a big hug and a high five as well.

Although, the tournament wasn't even over yet, the announcer announced that Travis would be facing the champion swordsman, Masato Takhanashi. He appears to be a tall Japanese man with a long ponytail and wore a samurai outfit. The girls in the audience seemed to like him because they think he was so cute and totally hot. Even Jade thought that he was so dreamy that she couldn't take her eyes off of him. Vickie, on the other hand, thought not only he's cool, but strong and brave as well.

"Ah, isn't he charming or what?" Jade asked, as she was starting to daydream.

"Uh, well...he's bold alright," said Vickie, being honest to her.

Travis and Masato were meeting at the stadium face to face. They both bow to each other and began the match. They drew their swords and began to fight at the same time. Masato used his agility to slow Travis down while he tried to stop him, but instead he missed. So he put the sword down and spin around like he was floating and began kicking him. After he cancelled out his agility, he took out the sword and slashed him. Masato dodged his attack and quickly slayed him behind.

"Oh man, this champion guy's tough," said Bryan. "How will Travis ever going to defeat the expert swordsman like Masato?"

"It's hard for me to say this, but no opponent will stand a chance against him," said Tohru. "I might have known that guy quite sometime in a very long ago."

"Do you know that guy, Tohru?" Ching asked.

Tohru nodded. "It's been few years ago, Masato learned the sword techniques from his teacher. He trained him very hard to master the skills. Few months later, he entered the sword tournament to face off the other opponents. Match after match, he became victorious that the judges were impressed with his sword skills. They gave him a trophy after winning the match, and then he becomes a true swordsman and the winner of the tournament."

"Wow! No wonder he becomes a champion swordsman," said Bryan. "I mean, what a swordsman he turns out to be!"

"Yeah, not only he's the greatest, but the master of the swords that is!" said Ching.

"And now, I had a big thought of something," Tohru explained. "Two years after he won the tournament, he now owns the training school of sword techniques for ages 13 and up. And it is somewhere in Tokyo that I am pretty sure if the rumor is right about this."

"Wow, I didn't know he owns the sword training school. It's incredible!"

Back to the battlefield, Travis and Masato used their force to push one of their swords down. Since no swords were dropped down, they pushed themselves away instead. Masato used his spin attack at Travis, but Travis blocked his attack and pushed him away. Masato jumped high and attack him, but Travis immediately avoided him and hit him behind. Masato knocked Travis' sword from his hand as he was asbout to get it from him. Travis ran faster as he can and then did the somersault to claim his sword before Masato does. Then, he leapt over him and caught his sword back.

"Whoa, what a relief!" Jade exclaimed, as she almost closed her eyes.

"I feel like I'm sweating right now," said Vickie. "Is it really hot outside or is it just me?"

Travis immediately kicked Masato's sword from his hand. He immediately chased after the sword, jumped up, and caught it back. Travis was very stunned that he could possibly do that either. So he immediately slashed his sword from his hand. Once Masato lost his sword again, he immediately got it. But Travis knocked him to the ground and chased after the sword. Masato quickly pushed him after he got up on his feet. Travis grabbed his foot and pulled him over; he jumped over him and caught the sword before it landed on the ground.

As the match was over, Masato stood up and applauded Travis, followed by the audience. He was very impressed with his motives and his skills that he began to smile. They both bow down once again and Masato rewarded Travis with the grand prize that he just won.

"My lad, with your goals and gratitude of your swordsmanship, you deserve a big reward within this chest," said Masato, showing the large chest to Travis.

Travis opened the chest and it appears to be two scrolls he suspected. He held them up high and showed them to the crowd. The audience was very excited that they began to cheer and give him around of applause. Until suddenly, the two scrolls were floating from his hands and appears that Tarakudo was using levitation powers. He delivered them to Keizo, who was on top of the roof. When the audience gasped in fear, Travis and the others wouldn't believe their eyes that he has a few tricks up in his sleeves.

"At last, the two scrolls were mine, the scrolls of kendo and iaido!" Keizo exclaimed, as he began to laugh.

"Hey, give those scrolls back to me at once!" Travis shouted. "I won the tournament fair and square, and I deserve that prize!"

"That's right, either you return the scrolls to the winner or you will have to learn the consequences by me!" Masato exclaimed, as he took the real sword blade out.

"Oh, come on, what does the sword guy like you stand a chance against the sorcerer like myself?" Keizo asked. "Then, here's the answer! Tarakudo, take care of that knight, will you?"

"With pleasure," said Tarakudo, as he began to attack Masato with his telepathic powers. But Masato immediately dodged his attack.

"Hey Masato, be careful with that floating head's mental attacks!" Travis warned him. "He's a very tricky one!"

"Don't worry, I know how to deal with them, just like I dealt with the other bad guys as well," said Masato, as he winked at him.

Tarakudo launched his powers once again while Masato held his sword blade horizontally. The shining sword reflected Tarakudo's powers and aimed right back at him and Keizo. When Keizo got blasted away along with Tarakudo, he dropped two scrolls in the air. Luckily, Tohru caught them and gave them to Travis.

"Thank you, Tohru," said Travis, "and thank you, Masato. You're a very skill swordsman ever."

"It was always the pleasure, Travis," said Masato. "Since you won the tournament, you are officially the one true swordsman. You showed me your talented skills of your sword and know how to handle it very well. I am very impressed of your goals and achievements. I also wanted to give you this card."

When Masato gave the card to Travis, he read the card, and it's the information about the sword training school.

"The sword training school?" Travis suggested, as he read the information of the card. "Wow, you owned the training school, and you're the instructor of the sword techniques?"

"Yep, not only that I am the champion swordsman, but the teacher of the sword training as well," Masato explained. "You can stop by anytime at my school whenever you feel like it. I'm sure that your friends feel free to come by as well."

"We are honor to stop by at your school anytime from now on," said Tohru. "And we all thank you for your generosity, Masato."
