King of Fighters:In the Pits!
Ch.7:The Finals begin!
The groups of winning fighters made it back to the dome building area where the whole tournament started.
Terry,Ryo,Kyo,Kim,Kensou,Joe,Clark,Heavy D,Tsegumi,Duck King,Li Xiangfei and Lee Pai Long were the remaining fighters who made it this far and were awaiting what would be next.
The tournament organizer Vinnie approached them once again.
"Welcome and congrats on your efforts."he said. "But as you can see,the tournament's still far from over. Now,walk this way and i'll adress the rest of the contest."
The fighters all follwed Mr.Vinnie towards another part of the room and gathered before another monitor.
Once it was activated,it shown two screens that were new fight arenas for them to deck it out.
One on the top left was a pit placed below in another warehouse and there was a set of spikes on both ends.
and the second was in a junkyard with a rectangular set of cars all smashed and fused together to form a fighting ring,
"Man,those look either pretty wicked,or pretty wierd either way."said D.
"Whatver kind of ring we fight in,i'm plenty ready!"said Joe.
"Yeah,same here!"said Duck King.
"I'm sure you are."said Vinnie. "But be warned fighters,they are all built and progrmaed to be the more deadly and interactive kinds of rings...rings that could very well,cost your life!"
Some of the fighters were a little stunned by the man's words.but others like Terry and Ryo stood firm in their belief to win.
"We're ready."said Terry with a grin.
"Very well."said Vinnie. "Now,it's up to the following for you to choose which shall be which for you to fight in."
Terry stepped forward.
"I wish--for the spike arena to fight in."
"Yeah,us as well."said Kyo as he and Ryo stepped forward.
Kim stepped forward.
"As do I."he said.
"Yeah,now you're talking!"said Joe as he and Kensou joined in.
"Okay then."said Vinnie as he pressed a button under the screen and a red check mark appeared on the screen.
"Teams 1 and 2 will compete in ring 1."
"I and the two chinese fighters here will take ring two."said Duck stepping forward.
"Same here."said D who was still with Clark and Tsegumi.
"Very well then."said Vinnie as he pressed for the screen again and another red checkmark appeared.
"Teams 3 and 4 will get arena 2.
And remember,once these two matches are over,you will all come back here to fight it out unitl only 3 fighters remain. And the three of you will then fight it out with---or legendary Pit Fighters champions!
The screen then shown three shadowed silloheuetes.
"Their identities will remain hidden at this time,but for those who make it,shall find out who they are once the grand finals begin. Now,head back out to the vans--and good luck!"
Terry and the others ran back outside to the two remaining transport vans and then they were taken to the next destination where they would fight.
While back inside,Vinnie went upstairs to a secret room where a certain and secret individual was sitting.
"Well played,Vinnie,very well played indeed."said the man in darkness.
"Thank you my lord."said Vinnie. "The others still don't suspect a thing."
"Good,and that is as it should be,I wish it to be Terry Bogard to fight,but it will not matter who it is,provided I get to fight him in the final pit ring match."
"Everything shall go accordingly,lord."said Vinnie.
"Oh it shall indeed,HAHAHA!"
