"And now ladies and gentlemen, it's time for the Demon Palace Title Match!" Said an announcer. Haseo, along with Kuhn, Saku, Atoli, and somehow Yang of all people, were watching the Demon Palace Title Match at a arena in Vale called Lumina Cloth. The rest of team RWBY was too busy to come, least that's what Yang had said.

Haseo rolled his eyes, waiting for the current champion to show up. Didn't help that his sister Yang was telling his team about their time together back on Patch. Choosing to ignore Yang, Haseo looked out at the arena.

The stands for the place surrounded it as they usually would, except in the middle was a rather large hole and in the middle was a floating arena. The bottom of the hole had been made to look as if it went deeper than it actually went.

Suddenly the crowd starter to cheer, prompting Haseo to look out at the arena. Who he saw though caused his eyes to widen, before turning into a glare. The champion of the Demon Palace.

The champion wore a tight fitting purple armor, along with a purple hat aligned with roses on it. His hair was a light blue and braided since it was fairly long. On his shoulder was also a little purple cat, that had ears that looked a bit too big for it.

"That guy." Haseo said rather angrily, getting Yang's attention since she was sitting right next to him. "What about that guy Haseo?" She asked, looking at him and at the guy that was about to fight. She had to admit though that he could probably get mistaken for a girl if he wore something different.

The announcer spoke up again, rather loudly as well. "And Emperor Endurance's challenger is the FORMER Emperor Alkaid!" On the opposite side from where Endrance was, stood a short red haired girl. She wore a decorated battle outfit, accented by a large fan on her back. In her hands were a set of dual-wield golden knives.

"So a revenge match is it?" Said Kuhn, looking between the two fighters. Alkaid looked angry yet happy at the same time. As for Endrance, he just looked bored. Now why would that be? Kuhn's thoughts were cut short as he, and everyone, heard Alkaid yelling.

"You're not cheating me this time Endrance!" Said Alkaid, pointing at him. "Haha yeah right, cheating." "She's just sore she lost in one hit last time." Yang, Kuhn, and the rest of his team heard various people say similar things after Alkaid said that endrance had cheated.

Alkaid got ready to charge right at Endrance, but he wasn't doing anything at all, he was just standing there, smirking at her. And that just pissed her off even more. The second the Announcer said for the match to begin, she rushed Endrance, bringing one of her swords down onto his skull, when she suddenly felt something hitting her.

After a brief flash of light, and Endrance glowing purple. Alkaid was nowhere to be seen. "What's this?! Another instant win by the Emperor!" Kuhn and Haseo were wided eyed, Looking up at the screen showing the fighter's aura's. Alkaid's was at zero while Endrance's was still full.

Yang herself was a bit confused by what happened. "So he just glows purple and his opponent is beat? Lame." Haseo, Kuhn, and Bo looked at her like she was insane. Turning back to the arena, the three of them saw something else instead. Instead of the usual space there. It was looking like the night sky for them for some reason, Endrance was floating as well, but he looked completely different.

The body of the thing he turned into mostly was purple for the torso up, but the bottom half was a large, unbloomed rose. The top half was cat like as well, having long ears and what looked like a veil flowing behind it's head.

Bo was the first to ask, "You can't see that Yang?" "Huh? See what? That purle guy just standing there?" Hearing her say this just confused the three even more. How were they able to see him turn into what they could but she couldn't. Looking around at the arena as well, no one else was reacting the way they did. Could they not see it either?

(With this is the start of vol 2 in this story. I skipped the food fight since I really did not want to take up most of one chapter typing that out.)
