Tournament Part 3: Zone's Triumph

Just before the finals begin Zerix walks up to Mark and puts out his hand, "Hey, good luck."

"I don't need luck to beat you." Mark refuses the hand and jacks in Zone; Zerix does the same with Blackman.

Zone Logging In

Blackman Logging In

Both navis are transferred to the net and get ready.

"Ready." Blackman announce.

Zone said in a cocky tone, "Ready, enough." Zone runs up to Blackman and slashes at him with his sword. "Cyber Sword!" The attack does a large number on Blackman, that attack was pretty powerful. Blackman starts to rise from the ground.

"Man, I really need to work on my dodging." Blackman readied his blaster and fired five shots. "Dark Blaster!" Zone easily weaves his way in and out of the black shots, only the last connected.

Mark slotted in three chips, "Cannon, Cannon, Cannon battle chips in, Download!" The three cannons meld on Zone's arm into the GigaCannon1.

"GigaCannon1 Program Advance, activate!" Zone fired a powerful shot at Blackman, who is blasted against the wall. Blackman struggled to get to his feet.

Blackman said, "I really need to be careful."

Zerix slotted in his favorite battle chip, "LongBlade battle chip in, Download." A lengthy blade attached itself to Blackman's arm. He charged and attempted a slash, but Zone blocked with his own sword and a loud 'Clang!' could be heard.

Blackman yelled, "Dang, this'll be harder than I thought!"

Zone answered him cockily, "You bet it is!" Zone surprised Blackman, unable to counter, with a long swipe of his sword. Zone pinned Blackman to the ground, blade to his throat. Now Zerix was frustrated because he couldn't jack out Blackman.

"Jack out, Blackman! Jack out already!"

Suddenly two ONB navis appear on the school net. The first of them spoke, "Zone you are under arrest for deleting multiple navis and illegally stopping others from logging out to save themselves."

"If you struggle we will take you by force." The second said.

Zone looked at them, "Oh yeah, Blackman we will finish this later, at least I now I can delete you."

Blackman stared, "What?"

Zone Logging Out

Mark ran away from the PC and out of the school, fleeing from the Officials.

"What was that all about?" Zerix asked still in shock.

"Beats me!" he said once again.

Zerix was annoyed, "Stop saying that!"

Blackman stopped him, "Zerix, we won!"

"I know, now let's go." Zerix quickly accepted his prize of the rare GunDelSol1 battle chip and exited the school for the summer holidays.

Zerix: Well I guess that means we won.

Blackman: That's our first tournament though unofficial.

Zerix Blackman: Next time, Playing with a Yoyo.

Zerix: I can't wait for this and that new kid, Mike…

Blackman: Shut UP!
