The first event would be the 10 meter platform. One member from each team was able to enter, but nobody could enter both the platform and the bombing. In both events each person got only one dive with the order determined randomly.

The sign ups went as follows...

Diving     Bombing

Gato      Yamazaki

Mai        Mary

Andy      Tizoc

Kula       Maxima

Choi       Chang

Leona      Ralf

Ash         Krauser

Shingo     Daimon

Yuri         Takuma

Athena     Kensou

Mature, Vice, Shermie, Chris and Yashiro sat down in the judging chairs and looked at Gato on the top of the platform. He walked out onto the edge of the platform and bounced into the air and jumped into the air using his Phoenix rise and going out then going twisting around about 2 and a half times before landing into the water. The audience clapped as Gato hit the water. The judges wrote down scores and they were announced by Heidern over the loudspeaker. The judges scores would be ordered Vice, Mature, Chris, Yashiro, Shermie.

"9, 8.5, 9.5, 8, 9" Heidern announced as Gato's score was calculated giving him a score of 44 out of 50.

Kula was next up... she brushed her hair backwards as she headed to the platform in a run, she jumped then landed on the edge and jumped again sending herself into a tuck position and she flipped 2 and a half times before coming out but before she touched the water the water except for the part she was headed for froze, she then hit the water and dived in. The audience ooo'ed in awe at the performance as the water thawed quickly and she came back up

"9.5, 9, 9, 8.5, 9" Heidern said this gave Kula 45.

Ash was next... he didn't waste any time in doing a cartwheel off the platform with his typical green wax like effect, however he over rotated slightly causing a slightly bigger splash then expected, although he still got an applause.

"8, 7.5, 8.5, 6.5, 7" Heidern read out again, Ash had a score of 37.5, a good deal lower then what would be required to win a medal but hopefully somebody else would make a mistake or Ash would collect another spoon.

"You got to chill out Ash... what's wrong with you?" Shen Woo asked as Ash got out of the water
"I'm biding my time... you know my line. Don't play your trump card until the end... the very end" Ash said walking away. Shen Woo groaned, Ash never said when he makes a mistake or whatever, always so damned secretive... it was frustrating.

Mai was ready in a typically revealing swimming costume. She too ran out to the platform did a cartwheel and went on fire as she dived off the platform and then still in mid air she turned around and dived the other way and lined herself up and went into the water. The crowd cheered as Mai hit the water...

"9, 9, 9.5, 9.5, 9" Heidern said, Mai was now in the lead as she had 45.5

Next on the platform was Andy. He walked out to the edge of the platform, he went into a handstand position on the top of the platform, he then bounced off and did a triple somersault however he didn't complete his third one which created a giant splash... an awful Ooo sound was made, not the kind out of awe the kind out of pain. Terry looked down; he knew Andy had screwed up.

"6, 6, 7, 7.5, 7" Heidern frowned; it wasn't good to see anybody screw up like that. Andy was now in last place with 33.5.

"From hero to zero" Andy shrugged as he approached Terry

"Yeah with a dive like that you should have entered the bombing but don't worry... Tizoc will get it back" Terry said

"I still don't like getting my mask all wet" Tizoc said

"Then get the bird mask off then" Joe suggested

"I can't and don't want to. Oh and it's not a bird it's a griffon" Tizoc said

Joe rolled his eyes as Leona was next. She walked to the edge of the platform jumped off did a few twists and landed into the water, nothing flashy compared to everybody else but nothing really wrong with it either.

"8, 8.5, 9, 7.5, 8" Heidern said, this placed Leona fourth with 41 with 4 more divers to come.

The first of these was Choi. Walking up to the platform, he suddenly went into the air spinning in a spiral fashion towards the water, causing a blur like effect, he was still spinning on hitting the water so despite his size he still made a splash.

"8, 8, 8.5, 7, 8.5" Heidern read out, Choi was placed behind Leona and out of the medals with 40.

Shingo was up next. He went up to the platform and then suddenly broke into a run and jumped off the platform.

"Shingo kick!" Shingo cried out as he went off the platform, Shingo then rotated one and half times to put himself in a good diving position to land reasonably well.

"8.5, 9, 8,8,8" Heidern said through his loudspeaker yet again, you could tell his voice was getting tired... Shingo had 41.5 and was now in fourth place.

"I'm just glad he didn't try anything with fire... he probably won't get a medal though" Benimaru breathed a quiet sigh of relief

"Yeah at least he can't come last" Daimon said

Yuri then was on the platform, she walked out to the very edge of the platform and looked downwards. She took a deep breath and held her hands together.

"Haoh Sho Koh Ken!" Yuri shouted out firing her giant fireball downwards, she then jumped off the platform did 2 forward somersaults and then went into a downwards dive into her own fireball and it looked as if Yuri was going to fall into her own fireball but it looked as if she was a falling meteor as her fireball and herself hit the water, the fireball absorbed into the water without a splash and Yuri followed it creating hardly any splash at all. The crowd gasped in admiration before going to into a huge applause.

"9, 8.5, 10, 9.5, 9" Clark took over from Heidern's role and read out the scores, Yuri had a score of 46 and it gave her the lead and the assurance of at the very least a silver medal. Yuri got out of the water.

"Did you hear... You're in the lead" Ryo said as he rushed up to Yuri who was barely getting out of the water

"Wow really? Excellent..." Yuri smiled as she accepted the towel Robert offered her

"Athena's next though, and my what a swimming costume she's got on" Robert said looking up at Athena

"HEY!" Yuri slapped Robert across the face slightly in a playful manner "Are you suggesting she's better looking then me" Yuri said with her hands on her hips

"Of course he is, I mean who'd really fall for your looks" Ryo smiled

"Since you are not even remotely good looking, I'll ignore that comment" Yuri said

"Let's not argue we have a medal no matter what so let's be happy with that and hope we get the gold okay?" Takuma said

Athena walked out onto the platform and got a loud cheer from the crowd when she did, she waved to the crowd before she got into position... she closed her eyes and focused, and then jumped with several sparks of psychic energy flowing around her as she slowly descended to the water and then she started doing multiple flips still slowly falling then she did her Phoenix Fang arrow sending several Athena illusions into the water none of course made a splash except for the original who landed with a nicely done dive. The crowd whistled and roared when Athena went into the water.

The judges thought a while on their score...

"9.5, 9, 9.5, 9.5 9" Clark announced, the score was calculated and the final results appeared on the screen.

Athena was the winner with 46.5, Yuri was second with 46, Mai was third with 45.5 and Kula was fourth with 45. Andy had the wooden spoon as he expected long ago.

Now was the much easier to judge competition of bombing... again the order was determined randomly.

"For our judges sake don't bomb to hard or you may wet the judges, they can and will mark you down. Understood?" Heidern said quietly

The teams bombers nodded as the headed up the 10 meter diving board. Takuma was up first, he put himself on the platform and then simply jumped into a cannonball position and hit the water. Quite a big splash occurred but not quite what the audience or judges were expecting...

"6.5, 6, 5, 7, 6.5" Clark said, Takuma scored 31 well off his expectations.

Next up was Maxima. He walks to the edge of the platform and then falls in belly first, a large splash is made, it is larger then Takuma's but not by much.

"7.5, 7, 6, 7, 7.5" Clark announced, Maxima had 35, a good lead on Takuma but he didn't except to hold it for long as Chang was next.

Chang walked up the platform thankfully still clothed but without his iron ball.

"Hey I just remembered! Chang can't swim! How will he get out?" Choi panicked

"Don't worry, we'll get him out" Kim said

Chang also went with the belly first approached like Maxima before him, his splash was gigantic, so much so that the judges had to duck underneath the desks as the water came there way but it was too late. Chang then struggled on the surface and Kim handed him a rope and Jhun and him pulled on the rope to get Chang out of the water.

"3, 4, 10, 3, 3.5" Clark read out. Chang had 23.5, well and truly last.

"Chris we got absolutely soaked, how come you didn't mark him down?" Shermie asked as the Ikari squad offered her and the other judges towels.

"Because I ducked under the table as soon as Chang appeared, that was one cool bomb" Chris laughed

Shermie sighed "I wish I thought of that..."

The next bomber was Mary, she ran towards the edge of the platform, jumped held her legs together in mid air with her arms and remained in that position when she hit the water, there was a surprisingly large splash with a good applause.

"7.5, 7, 6, 6.5, 7" Clark said as Mary's score registered 34 which left her in second place behind Maxima.

"Man, that hurt... ah well... it's all for fun and at least it's all over for today after this" Mary said

"Yeah, you did alright, this was one we were never going to win anyway so I think it was more a matter of damage control" King replied

Daimon was up. He headed to the platform and then jumped straight in, with a backwards flip and crashed into the water creating a reasonable splash although it wasn't really impressive.

"7, 6, 6, 7.5, 6" Clark took the scores from the judges, Daimon had scored 32.5 this was still ahead of Chang and Takuma but it was likely it wouldn't be good enough for a medal.

Ralf was ready next, the Ikari squad began to cheer loudly. Ralf headed to the edge of the platform and the Ikari's hushed. Ralf then did a single twist off the platform and then at the end of it went into a cannonball position creating a huge splash while the water still remained in the pool without hitting the judges. The squad cheered extremely loudly when Ralf landed in the water. Their cheers were confirmed when Clark read out the scores for his partner.

"8, 9.5, 9.5, 9, 8" Clark cheered at the end of reading it out, Ralf was well and truly in the lead with 44.

Yamazaki was on the top of the platform. He went in quickly and also in a cannonball position, it too created quite a decent splash, not quite as good as Ralf's but still very good.

"7.5, 8, 7, 9, 8" Clark announced, Yamazaki took second behind Ralf with a 39.5, considerably better then Maxima.

Tizoc was ready on the platform, he shook his head as he really didn't like doing this but his team and reputation were at stake, not thinking about it he just jumped in twirling into the water before extended himself horizontally at the bottom of the jump. The result was a huge splash, the judges were in thought again, about 15 seconds later they handed their scores to Heidern who was ready to read out the final scores for the day.

"8.5, 9, 9, 8, 8.5" Heidern read out before the scores registered giving Tizoc 43 and second place with Kensou and Krauser still to come.

Kensou walked out nervously, he knew he needed quite a decent bomb to even get a medal. He lifted himself into the air did a few flips and then tucked himself into a ball and crashed into the water, the splash was decent but Ralf's and Tizoc's were definitely better.

"8, 7.5, 6.5, 6.5, 7.5" Heidern said, Kensou had 36 which was good enough for fourth with only Krauser to come, but Kensou knew that it was unlikely Krauser would make a mistake.

Krauser needed more then 44 to win, no less then 43 for second, he came up and even on the platform he was incredibly tall. Krauser breathed quietly, as he went into the air with a kick and aimed down into the water, his body size helped create a giant splash... there was applause in the crowd as Krauser came out of the water.

"8.5, 9, 8, 7.5, 7" Krauser's score was read out... then the top 4 results and last appeared on screen.

Ralf: 44

Tizoc: 43

Krauser: 40

Yamazaki: 39.5

Chang: 23.5

The Ikari's had their second gold of the day... this sent a sickening roar through the Ikari camp...

"We need more supporters here" Terry said looking towards the squad

"Yeah... there can only be like 30 or so of them but geez they can sure make noise" Joe said

"I'm sure more will show up tomorrow as the news spreads especially through King's bar. Well the lead was good while it lasted but we aren't done yet, you do remember our deal don't you Terry?" Mary smiled

"Of course I do..." Terry replied

"That's good to hear... see you around" Mary then walked with Mai and Chizuru.

The current medal tally. The number at the end in brackets is their place yesterday and how many ranks they have moved up or down. If I've cheated your team (on the tally) or made a mistake by an incorrect medal count let me know, I've checked it at least three times and updated it every time I finished an event.

1. Ikari warriors team: 2 gold, 1 aluminium (9th, 8)

2. Fatal fury team: 1 gold, 2 silver, 1 aluminium, 1 wooden spoon (2nd, no change)

3. Woman's team: 1 gold, 1 silver, 2 bronze (1st, -2)

Who may be joining up with a team with fewer number tomorrow, can the Art of fighting team, Ash/Krauser team, Japan team win a gold tomorrow? Just how many bets are going on based on these games?
