Big Issues

AN: As promised, this chapter is up on the weekly schedule again. I'm glad that the last chapter had received such positivity and I thank univers123 for the favorites. This one is a little shorter than I'd have liked but not by much.

Vytal Tournament- Round Two Begin!

Team JNPR stood at the ready across from Team BRNZ. The Vacuoan team only had one girl and she was easily the shortest yet the widest, her red and white jacket doing little to hide her size which her tight black shorts revealed to the world. The three guys had some decent bulk on them, most of it was muscle under a layer of padding.

"Three!" Port began the countdown. "Two! One! Begin!"

Jaune raised his sword. "Let's do it guys!" He rallies his team as they rush the other team, three of which ran to meet them while the girl ran away and took cover in the foliage. Brawnz Ni was the first to attack with a knee to Pyrrha's shield that made her stop her charge. He obviously had a lot of strength to stop over three hundred and seventy pounds of woman, weapons, and armor in their tracks.

With the spartan warrior woman on the backfoot, Brawnz punched at her with his clawed gauntlets but she was able to stop the claws with Milo before knocking him back with a bash to the face from Akouo. Brawnz still had his senses intact to dodge her following slash of her blade and roll away to break the engagement to reevaluate her skills. It was in this break of the action that Pyrrha saw May Zedong jump towards a tree and use the small axe blade in the stock of her rifle to catch a branch and swing herself up to another… and the girl tried to ignore the branch creaking under her weight.

Nora charged at Nolan Porfirio and swung Magnhild at him with a smile and a twisting windup that he ducked under easily and stood up to smack the short girls back with his baton that made her stumble forward. Ren began to run to assist his friend but a lucky miss from May stopped him in his tracks as the round had hit a boulder and sheared off some of the rock. At the same time, Roy Stallion joined up with Brawnz to fight Jaune who was backing up Pyrrha, trusting the other half of the team to take care of the other two.

Roy swung his arms at Jaune relentlessly, the saw blades within his gauntlets spinning rapidly as they clashed against the knight's shield, creating a shower of sparks with every clash. A small break as a bullet flew overhead gave the blonde a moment to trace its path to the trees where he saw the glint of the sniper's scope. "Retreat!" He shouts out and turns to take cover near the rocks at the base of the mountain.

Ren moved in time to avoid a shot at the legs and met up with Nora as she broke away from Nolan, Jaune and Pyrrha converging with shields raised to take the shots fired at the team and covering their unarmored friends. JNPR took cover behind some large boulders, even as May continued to fire to keep their heads down as her own team rushed in.

"What do we do?" Pyrrha asks her leader as he peeks out to see their opponents moving quickly.

"Spread out, try to keep moving." He orders with a sweep of his sword before having to raise his shield to block an attack by Brawnz who was putting his weight behind the jumping punch.

May leapt up higher in the trees, trying her best to find the thicker branches that would support her weight. Her beanie pulled down to cover her left eye kept her from being distracted as she looked down her scope again. At the same time, Roy and Brawnz switched targets so that Roy was combating Pyrrha once again as Roy chased Jaune back out into the open arena.

Ren slid to a stop as Nolan casually approached with his baton held at the ready. The taller man looked back and nodded to May, who smiled as she fired at the ninja as a distraction and to keep him off balance, giving Nolan more than ample time to close the distance and whack Ren across the face with a powerful strike that sent the young man reeling and barely able to keep his feet under him as he stumbled. A reverse roundhouse from Ren that was made out of desperation was easily ducked under and Ren paid the price as the supporting leg was smacked across the knee. Ren spun with his remaining momentum and turned to take some weight off the leg, raising Stormflower to shoot at Nolan only to find that he had already gotten within his guard and electrocuted the ninja with his baton. Ren dropped to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut, twitching from the occasional muscle spasm.

"Ren!" Nora shouts as her best friend lay on the ground near her feet. Her features became angry as she ran at the boy with her hammer held high and once again, Nolan was able to smoothly slip underneath the strike before rising and stabbing his shock baton into her stomach hard enough for the flesh to fold over the tip. Nora bent over, causing more belly to encase the prod as Nolan shocked her, but gave him a shock as she looked up at him with a wild grin.

"Ho ho! It looks like one of my favorite students is charging up her semblance." Port boasts over the PA and could be seen in the holographic displays to be pumping his arm in excitement.

"What?" Nolan was understandably confused, yet refused to stop shocking Nora, not that he could pry his weapon out of her belly rolls easily.

Oobleck took over the explanation, complete with raising a finger. "Yes! Miss Valkyrie's Semblance allows her to produce, as well as channel electrical energy straight to her muscles. This allows her to jump explosively into the air, wield her mighty hammer, or in this case, absorb Nolan's attacks and send the young man flying."

"What?!" Nolan turned back to the short and stout girl he'd been tasing during the entire explanation with his eyes wide as the realization of how badly he chose his opponent sank in… not that he had any way of knowing beforehand.

Nora stood back up with enough force to push the baton out of her stomach, only to pose with her hammer and fists raised as pink sparks raced over her body. Her flexing was a little underwhelming as her arms were too thick with padding to see the muscle underneath but with the way she hefted her weapon with such ease, it left little doubt how strong she was.

Nolan backed away with hands raised in surrender but Nora had a friend to take revenge for and with a burst of speed that could rival Ruby, she had closed the distance between them and trust her hammer like a spear into his gut with enough force to send him skipping across the grass into and through a boulder. It said something about his durability that the blows to his body didn't wear his aura down to disqualification levels.

Not too far away, Jaune took notice of the weather effects being produced by the landscapes, another thing that made the arena such a test of skill and feat of technology. A small dark cloud grew over the peak of the mountain, already rumbling with thunder and ready to begin raining at any moment.

"Nora! Get to the mountain!" He shouts before having to deal with Brawnz attacking him once more with his saw blades flying at him.

Nora only needed a glance at her target to understand his plan. "You got it!" She gives a cheerful salute before rushing off.

"Ren!" Jaune saw the ninja rising to his feet as the effects of being shocked wore off. "Try to distract the sniper!"

Ren slumped at the idea, managing to duck a bullet by doing so. "Sure, why not?" He asks rhetorically to himself before rushing at the source of the gunfire as fast as he could. He had a good idea of where she was and he is the second fastest of his team, possibly first if one doesn't include Nora's short bursts but goes for longer stretches instead.

A small break in attacks from Roy and Brawnz gave Jaune and Pyrrha the time to share a glance and charge at the pair together in a somewhat coordinated assault that was meant for covering each other's backs with the others shield while Jaune, the unskilled swordsman he was compared to his teammate, would try his best to attack and create openings while Pyrrha would do her best to exploit those openings.

At the same time, Nora was using up the power she had gained from Nolan to bound of the mountain one ledge at a time and rose quickly. It did make one wonder how they stored a mountain several stories tall below the arena floor and how solid the mountain really is. Still, there was nothing but an uphill climb between the excitable girl and her goal of static in massive quantities.

Back on the ground, Brawnz leapt back from the engagement and threw his saws at Jaune, who once again blocked them with his shield, though the second hit near the upper edge with enough force to slam the top of Crocea Mors into its owner's forehead, stunning the blonde for a second that he needed to shake off.

The blades returned to his wrists as the Vacuoan team leader immediately launched himself into a spin to rain blows onto Pyrrha's shield and raising sparks with every contact. His last attack had him adding a small jump to the spin and his saw came down on the shield hard enough to make the Invincible Girl stumble back from the force. Roy was nearby, having used his teammates attacks as an opportunity to catch his breath and now found it was best to get back into it as the blonde charged back in again.

Up in the stands, three teams of friends were watching and cheering. While there was some wincing at Jaune's call for a retreat, it soon gave way to cheers as the team had regrouped and replanned in moments. There was more wincing from everyone except Denko when Ren was shocked and dropped to the ground. As soon as the third round of wincing began when it was Nora's turn to be shocked, the winces morphed into grins at the brief explanation of Nora's semblance, High Voltage.

More cheers resulted from Nolan being pounded through the boulder and the display of skill from Pyrrha and Jaune against the brawling duo. "Go get them Jaune!" Ruby shouts through her cupped hands, glad to see the boy who was considered a failure doing surprisingly well against strong opponents.

"Well, he's certainly improved." Weiss comments, noting the vast difference from the boy that hit on her before initiation and the one she was watching now. The Arc knight was finally fighting as a Huntsman and doing his best to coordinate his team. Sure, he was far from her level of skill with the blade or Blake's style, but his fundamentals were solid.

Behind the Heiress, team DAIT nodded in agreement as they had seen the changes during their time at the school as well. While everyone else had their established styles of combat down and were refining them further and picking up new skills to help them deal with a variety of situations, he had essentially been starting from scratch. To come so far in such a short amount of time, that was amazing and if he kept the growth up, he'd fit in well in their second year.

"Yeah! But he's got nothing on Pyrrha!" Yang responds as she kept her focus on the fights.

Pyrrha delivered a side kick to Roy's chest, but the young man was as sturdy as he looked and took it head on with barely a flinch. It didn't seem to matter to him that there was more than a fair amount of weight behind the attack, it merely kept him from attacking the hefty girl temporarily.

The sound of air being cut by a flying weapon was all the warning the Spartan had as she pulled her foot back, having to raise her sword to deflect a buzzsaw coming at her head before twisting with her momentum and jumping over the second saw. Roy kicked the saw with the metal guards on his knees at the girl only for a stroke of luck that the bronze plate with Pyrrha's emblem on it that was on her broad hip to reflect the saw back at him and forcing the boy to dodge.

Brawnz came at her from behind and launched another blade at point blank, though that was deflected by her shield and she extended the hilt into the spear mode as she threw Milo at the other gauntlet to prevent him from throwing the second blade. Catching Roy charging at her from the corner of her eye, she took advantage of Brawnz still stumbling from her attack and her own weight, Pyrrha bent backwards and planted her hands on the floor before tucking her legs in. She thrust her heavy legs out as she fell forwards in time to catch Roy in the chest with both feet. This time, he was launched away with a grunt as the air left his lungs. At the same time, Brawnz couldn't take advantage of her vulnerable position as Jaune began attacking him with both his sword and Pyrrha's, giving the girl time to rise to her feet and shield bash the team leader from behind.

In short, the moves she had performed put many who were less than half her size to shame and the match was still going on.

"Thank you Jaune." The tall girl takes her offered weapon back from the blonde.

"Anytime." With his hand free, he takes his sheath from his belt and expands it into the shield bearing the Arc symbol of the double crescent.

At the same time, Ren was racing across the open arena as fast as he could towards the trees of the forest area where May was hiding and firing at the team to keep them off balance and chip away at their aura's when she could. But the green clad boy running at her out in the open was an invitation that she couldn't refuse, so he became her primary target. Several bullets were fired and each blasted chunks out of the stone arena floor.

Pyrrha's fight with Brawnz accidentally took her into the ninjas path, forcing Ren to drop and slid on his knees to not just avoid one of the flying saw blades but also Pyrrha as the larger girl jumped over him on her way to confront the team leader while his blades were away. Jaune wasn't too far off as he kept Roy busy.

Ren rose to his feet and found that Nolan had recovered from being hit by Nora and was now in between him and the sniper. Still running, Ren raised Stormflower and began firing at the taller boy who deflected some of the bullets with his baton while avoiding most of the others. Once close enough, Ren slashed with both his blades that Nolan dodged. The two fell into a dance of sorts of striking at each other while moving out of the weapons paths. The dance ended when Ren caught the baton across his blades and the Vacuoan tried to push him down but the Mistralian launched a pair of kicks into Nolan's exposed ribs, opening him up and loosening his grip on the baton that Ren hooked his blades around and pulled back, holding the boy by the neck with his own weapon.

A brief stare down between sniper and ninja with his hostage ensued before May smirked and let out a small laugh as she shifted her aim to someone far more vulnerable.

"Nora!" Ren shouts but the girl was too focused on climbing the steep rocks and too far away for her friend to be heard over the low rumbles of thunder and the wind picking up.

Jaune managed to assess the situation while blocking a clawed punch from Roy with his sword. "Pyrrha!" He shouts to get her attention. "Up!" Was the only direction he could give. It also happened to be a move that the whole team could use, they simply needed the shield bearers to call out for the needed teammate to respond in kind.

Pyrrha ran towards her leader, having to flip over flying saw blades and slid through the legs of Brawnz… technically her bulk actually swept his feet out from under him in her attempt to slide between his legs. Rising to her feet, she jumps and flips, using Roy's shoulders as a support to twist herself further. The move pushed the young man away from Jaune and herself while setting her feet squarely on Jaune's shield as he crouched. As soon as her momentum was arrested, Jaune pushed up as hard as he could as Pyrrha jumped. It was a very impressive display of strength on the part of the blonde to launch so much weight so high into the air.

Pyrrha curled herself up behind her shield as much as her pudgy body would allow as she put herself between the sniper and teammate. The bullet that struck Akouo was the most powerful yet fired, more than likely an enhancement from May's semblance; Concentrated Force. That shot was more than enough to create a visible shockwave upon contact and send the young woman flying to the base of the mountain where she landed as softly as possible… meaning she hit the ground hard.

But that was enough time for Nora to reach the peak and proudly raise her hammer which acted as a lightning rod, directing the next bolt into herself with a smile. As the sparks faded into her body, Nora reconfigured Magnhild into its grenade launcher form and took aim across the arena. The face of the launcher opened up to display all six grenades within that were ready to fire, each of them with a pink heart on the head. Then she pulled the trigger and six grenades flew overhead.

Pyrrha watched as they screamed by, leaving a pink trail in their wake as she picked herself out of the small crater, she'd made upon landing on the softer grass covered ground. The pyrotechnic display was enough to make Brawnz and Roy pause in their attacks against Jaune as Ren made sure to keep his hold on Nolan. May looked up in disbelief as the grenades somehow managed to make the rough shape of a heart, helped by the dust trails, that was coming straight at her.

While May did manage to run across her branch and leap to one much further away to avoid the worst of the resulting explosions, the shockwaves and debris did put their mark on her aura, which so far had only diminished from using her semblance to enhance the power of her shots at the cost of accuracy. There was also the massive amount of smoke that was created from so much destruction, making the girl cough and flushing her from the trees and to the ground where the air was a little clearer.

Nolan had used the shock of the explosion to get away from Ren, by retracting his baton and elbowing the shorter boy away before running over to regroup with the males of his team, missing that covering fire had stopped.

Unfortunately for him, and by extension- the rest of the males of Team BRNZ, concentrating together gave Nora a perfect target as she used a supercharged leap off the mountain to get to them. They barely had time to look up at the source of the yelling from above, the Valkyrie falling at them with her hammer reared back and stomach plowing through the air, pink sparks racing around and trailing behind her.

The resulting smash was luckily not a direct one as that quite possibly would have been lethal as the stone arena floor was shattered into a crater large enough to land a Bullhead inside. The shockwave from the attack, combined with the debris, to throw the three boys away towards the forest biome where they landed near the feet of May who was still coughing from the smoke. Maybe her luck had changed since the shockwave also blasted away much of the smoke.

"Alright guys! Let's hit them with team attacks!" Jaune calls out, hoping to take advantage of the situation of their opponents not being ready for combat as they were stunned.

"Hey little lady, how about we take a walk together?" A young man from Atlas asks Anya as she worked the grill with practiced ease.

"No." She didn't bother looking at him as she focused on the meat in front of her, applying a light glaze for extra flavor.

"C'mon, don't be that way." He says with a smile as he leans closer.

"If you want something to eat, get in line like everyone else." She says flatly as she sprinkles a little spice onto the glaze before it congealed too much.

"But I want you, babe." He presses as he reaches in towards the young cook.

Fortunately, Anya had many ways to deal with him… that didn't involve making him bleed. So, the list was a bit shorter than she would have liked taking that detail out.

Her eyes took in the options available. Powdered spices, spatula, cast iron pan that was kept warm, ladle, spoon, a cup of water… The options were taken from her as he reached closer to her, only to hit with a compressed blast of air, courtesy of Talon. The use of her semblance was enough to throw the young man across the path and into the rather sturdy post holding up the tent.

"No means no, asshole!" Talon shouts at him as he sat on the ground, slumped against the pole that stopped his flight.

"Wait… what?" He got out as he was helped to his feet by a pair of hands under his arms. "Thanks guys…" He trailed off as he finally noticed that he was supported by a pair of Atlesian Knights who had begun leading him away.

Anya watched as he was dragged away by the Knights with her mother next to her, along with more than a few customers. The man was shouting about being assaulted and that the mechs should be going back and arresting them before he was too far away to be heard clearly.

"About time those Atlas toys proved themselves useful." Bonelli scoffs before setting a comforting hand on her daughters' shoulder. "You okay?" She asks, though she glanced at her other daughter who was handing a customer their meal.

"I'll be fine, was about to take care of him myself." Anya says quietly as she tended to the food.

"Next time you'll have to be faster. But hope there isn't a next time yet be prepared for it." Bonelli pats her shoulder before returning to her cooking and taking orders.

Talon watched from the corner of her eye the support that her sister sometimes needed. She had hardened herself and had become jaded as a result from unlocking her semblance, leading to her distancing herself from others, with good reason. It had taken months of enduring hardship for the paler sister to gain some real control over her power and even more until she herself would allow others to be close to her. Those were not good times, yet they had never been closer as they were now as a result of that training.

Good thing Anya hadn't used her semblance on the harasser, too many problems and questions would be raised. Most notable being the time of self-isolation and loathing that would be a result of that. Now was not the time that they could really deal with that.

"They have team attacks?" Itazura asks to nobody in particular. Her own team didn't exactly have team attacks, they could work well together in any combination the situation required. But DAIT generally fought individually against their opponents, which made them rather dangerous as they were used to fighting against overwhelming odds, so it wasn't hard to imagine what would happen if they had to group up on a single enemy.

"Maybe?" Ruby shrugs.

"Could have gotten the idea from ours." Weiss comments from next to the reaper.

"Jaune's a cool guy, probably came up with them himself. He is a better strategist than a fighter." Neptune speaks up for the blonde. The night of the dance had given him a new opinion of the young man. He was someone who was honest and committed, though lacking in combat skills and confidence in general. He did see that Jaune had confidence in his volleyball skills when they were at the pool, and at the dance he saw that the guy could really cut a rug, wearing a dress just to keep his word to Pyrrha set a precedent that he was comfortable with his body.

The others who heard and knew the knight well all nodded in agreement.

"Let's use Arko's and Flower Power!" Jaune commands and raises his shield.

"Huh?" Was the intelligent response from Pyrrha as the other half of the team shared glances.

"Huh? Oh, come on! We practiced these moves." Jaune was wondering where things went wrong.

"Uh… OH!" Nora seemed to recall what he was talking about. "Hehe, silly Jaune. You never told us you came up with names for the moves." She giggles. Ren and Pyrrha looked to the blonde whose eyes widened before he slumped and hung his head at the oversight.

He looked up once the Spartan stood ready next to him with her shield raised as his was. Behind them, Ren and Nora took their places with weapons in hand. With a smile coming to his face, he prepared himself and looked at the other team that was unsteady on their feet from being thrown around and the smoke in the air wasn't helping them at all; May was still coughing as she had the worst of it.

"Let's do this JNPR!" The leader shouts and the shields ran at the Vacuoan team. The desperate shots from May and hastily thrown blades from Brawnz were deflected off the metal barriers. There was no time for BRNZ to run, or to run to as Ren leapt out from behind Jaune and used his greater speed to kick Nolan in the chest, knocking him into Roy and Brawnz, who were rammed by the shields just before Nora came spinning out from behind Pyrrha. The boys only had a moment to realize that the deceptively strong girl was winding up for a big swing before it hit them physically, bowling the three boys into May behind them that sent them tumbling through the small patch of woods -mostly through the area that Nora had already destroyed- and out of the arena.

"And with that, it appears that Team JNPR wins by knockout and aura level!" Port announces. Brawnz, Roy, and Nolan had all made it out of the woods for disqualification along with aura being exhausted. May had found herself tangled in a thick bush upside down but her aura was below ten percent.

"We did it Renny!" Nora cheers as she jumps up to hug Ren, thankfully dropping her hammer before doing so, she was heavy enough to make him stumble and he was tired from the fight. Still, he made a small smile and patted her soft back.

Jaune and Pyrrha were comparatively less enthusiastic, sheathing their weapons and lifting their fists in victory… well Jaune lifted the modest champions arm as they both gave proud smiles.

"Alright folks! We're going to need a little more time than usual to clean up the arena for the next round so now is the time to go to the concession stands and restrooms if you need to." Port declares after getting the notice on his scroll about the slight delay. Apparently, the staff managing the arena itself were shocked at the damage caused by a single attack. They were fine if it happened in one of the biomes, especially the wasteland ones, but the central arena and the forest? Those were far more troublesome. Thankfully, Dust helped in the creation of new stone blocks and the removal of old ones.

On the festival grounds, there were more than a few stands that kept to the edges for certain reasons. They tended to appeal to an… older customer base, thus staying out of sight of most of the more family friendly vendors in the middle of the fairgrounds. But the adults knew they were there and many took at least one opportunity to visit to relax a bit or try the special products that they weren't likely to find any other time. One such stand was called the Crowbar, complete with the tool on the sign over the entrance of the bar.

There were few people here at the time and most of them enjoying their glasses of preferred drink as they watched the holographic television in the corner behind the bar. There had been more than a few bets made on the teams competing all day. There were winner and losers, as expected, but they were all good sports about it.

The television showed a still image of winning team with the headline underneath 'Team JNPR defeats Team BRNZ'. Perhaps the cameraman could have panned down a little as the banner had to be faded out otherwise it would have covered the face of the short ginger, who looked even shorter thanks to the blonde and redhead standing so close and the other teammate wasn't exactly short either.

"Now that was a fight!" The bartender boasts as he cleaned a glass with a rag. Happy that he'd won a fair share of the bets on top of a small cut for allowing the gambling and the patronage.

"Yeah! Those kids weren't half bad!" One patron shouts out before knocking back his drink.

"Ugh…" The patron at the bar itself grunts before sipping at his drink.

On the television, after a brief transition piece from the network, Oobleck appeared on screen with a picture of Nora delivering the final blow next to him. "Ah, well, Vacuo fans will certainly be feeling that one but the next round will have them at the edge of their seats!"

Port took over from there with a picture of an all-girls team next to him. "Team NDGO of Shade is certainly a crowd favorite but these lovely ladies are going against the toughest, testosterone filled team we've seen so far. I'm of course talking about Team SSSN!"

There were plenty of cheers for the teams that were announced and once again, Blake saw the signs being held up by some 'fans' of Team SSSN. Only Weiss could hear the low growl of irritation coming from her teammate over the crowd. Her eyes followed the cat girls' eyes to the signs being held and found that they were being held by some girls in Beacon uniforms… and a seemingly random guy holding Scarlet's picture. This left the Heiress to wonder what her friend would be saying if the team hadn't already left for their locker room. But they had a few minutes to wait until the boys would emerge again, the cleaning crew were still fixing the arena thanks to Nora.

"You guys ready?" Sun asks as he tucks his gunchucks into the holster under his shirt.

"Locked and loaded!" Neptune cocks his rifle that gives a small whine as the lightning dust inside was prepped to fire.

"Good to go." Scarlet says as he runs a cleaning cloth one last time over his sword, Hook, before sheathing it behind his waist and tapping his other hand on his pistol, Darling, that was holstered on his other hip.

Sage grunts in acknowledgement as he rises and hefts his massive sword onto his back.

"Then let's show them what we got!" Sun pumps a fist into the air that was followed by three more.

"Which team did they say we're fighting again?" Scarlet asks as they waited for the green light.

"Some team from Vacuo." Sage replies as he sits on the bench with his arms crossed.

"Team NDGO. A team full of desert beauties!" Neptune was quick to correct with his arms held out like he was about to give a hug.

"Yeah…" Sun deadpans at his best friend. He knew better than his team about the women of Vacuo and how many of them could and would fight with anything on hand, even if they had no combat training. And that the women were rather independent there as well, more so than in other kingdoms, and they weren't afraid to tell or show it. His cousin Star was a perfect example and one who had no problems hitting him when she thought a lesson didn't sink in fast enough from an explanation.

"Lights green." Scarlet says as he had been keeping watch. The team moves to the tunnel and walk towards the daylight at the end to emerge to the cheers of the crowd. They had little problems with waving to the spectators. Though Sun did take note of where Team RWBY and their friends were sitting and gave them a few waves while looking at them.

He did see that Blake looked cross, though she lightened up when looking at him. Her expression darkened as she glanced away, looking pointedly to another section. Sun did his best to follow and sweat-dropped at the signs… they weren't too hard to see. He looked back to the girl and made a show of waving the fan club off, something that made her smile.

That done, he turned his attention to the team standing across the central arena from his own, ready to get the fight underway.

AN: Yeah, with as long as this chapter already was, I'm not about to try jamming the NDGO vs SSSN fight in this chapter. I'm not trying to set a record for chapter length. At the same time, I do hope you all enjoyed the small changes I made to the JNPR vs BRNZ fight. Once again, I'm finding a few details that I hadn't noticed thanks to playing the video at half speed. Thanks Monty for your skill and attention to detail making these fights, I hope that I'm doing well translating your work into text for this story.

Up next, we have Team SSSN vs NDGO. That will be fun. And Blake isn't liking the fans too much. ^_^!

As always, reviews are welcome and I'll see you all in the next chapter!
