"The rules are the same," Zore said. "The first battle will be against Yugo and Miko."

"So we're going to fight," Miko stated grinning at Yugo.

"You're that guy that bumped into me."

Miko and Yugo both walked onto the arena. Yugo could hear Alice, Uriko, and Kenji cheering him on. When Zore declared the start of the battle Miko started attacking Yugo. Yugo was blocking every attack he made.

"Is that all."

"Shut your mouth."

Yugo punched Miko's face, blood dripped down his chin. Yugo started laying punches all over Miko. Yugo was so fast that Miko couldn't lay a punch on him. Miko's body felt broken.

"Yah Yugo's winning," Uriko chanted.

"Hey look Zore's leaving," Kenji said pointing towards a door.

"I wonder where he's going."

"Shut up," Iina protested.

"All of you shut up," Jenny said.

"Hmm, I wonder what he's up to," Uranus thought getting up.

"Where are you going?" Gado and Shina asked.

"I don't need to explain myself to the likes of you inferior beings."

"I don't like her," Shina stated. "I can feel a great power coming from her."

"Me too," Gado said making a fist.

Miko got up slowly. His legs shaking madly, buckling beneath him.

"Your gonna wish you never did that," Miko bellowed. He started to change into his beast. His hair turned into a dark blonde. His ears became catlike, black spots appeared all over the blonde hair. A tail grew from behind him, whiskers sprouted from the sides of his face and his nose became flat and brown.

"A cheetah," Yugo thought.

"Now lets see if you can hit me." Before Yugo knew it he got hit.

"What the hell," he shouted.

"He';s fast," Uriko whispered to Kenji.

"I didn't even see him move."

Miko laughed in a hoarse voice. He hit Yugo again sending him soaring into the air. Yugo got back on his feet and concentrated. He was going to change. Miko went to hit him but a wave of energy pushed him away. Yugo's eyes turned red, sprouting silver fur. His mouth grew long into a snout and his teeth became sharp. His hand turned into claws and his nails grew longer. A tail was exposed from his ripping shorts.

"A wolf how very interesting," Miko said grinning. "You still won't be able to hit me."

Miko ran up to him so fast that he didn't even notice he had been hit. Yugo howled maniacally. Yugo started swinging at Miko but he kept missing. Miko laughed pushing him aside. Yugo was right at the edge of the arena.

"Damn."

Miko's claws started glowing. Yugo's heart sank with fear. He was going to use his beast drive. If it hit him he would surely fall of the arena, but if he managed to escape it Miko would be back in his human form giving Yugo the advantage he needed. Miko sliced the air sending millions of blades at Yugo. Miko followed his attack, if the blades hit Yugo he would finish the drive winning the match. Yugo had little time to think he had to do something, fast.


Zore had entered his lab via the door at the arena. Only personal could enter the facility, intruders would just find an empty corridor. Zore had to prepare for the extraction of the zoanthropes.

"How is it going?" he asked.

"All zoanthropes are being transferred into the extraction chamber," his minion told him.

"Good," Zore said turning on a speaker. "Talia, send cell 18 into the chamber."

"Yes my lord."

Talia had her team go to cell 18. They removed everyone from the cell and noticed someone was missing. The minion entered the cell and looked around.

"Above you stupid," he heard a girl say hitting him before he could do anything.

"Get her," someone said.

The girl had taken out all of Talia's team. Talia who was watching the whole thing from surveillance contacted Zore.

"We have a runaway."

"Who is it."

"Nagi."

Nagi didn't know what she was going to do. The lab was like a maze. Nagi turned a corner and saw someone waiting there.

"Nagi I presume."

"And who may you be."

"My name is Talia."

"Get out of my way or I'll make you."

"Don"t make me laugh, you aren't going to leave this place."

"You think you can stop me," Nagi said getting into a fighting position. A man walked out of a room walking up to Talia.

"Take care of her will ya Reiji," Talia said walking away. Without warning Reiji started changing into his beast form.

"Damn it," Nagi swore.


Uranus entered the door that Zore had. There was nothing in the room.

"Hmm, I wonder," Uranus said feeling the wall. She could tell the corridor lead somewhere. "Maybe I can teleport into the next area." Uranus concentrated her energy into her body and she teleported into a new area.

"I was right." Uranus walked forward only to be stopped by two people, a little girl and a man.

"Who are you?" Uranus asked.

"Mana."

"Ryoho."

Uranus felt a disturbance. Something was wrong with these two, it felt as if someone was controlling them.

Zore was watching the whole thing from his room.

"Hmm, This is going to be more interesting then I thought.

Well what did you think. Plz RR.
