Two prison guards walked through a cellblock in a prison that very clearly wasn't Hope's Lament, it was just too modern. The two guards kept walking before stopping outside one of the prisoner's cells.

"Prisoner Oh-four-eight! Get your ass up!" One of the guards clanged on the cell's bars, causing the prisoner to snicker and get up. "Alright alright, grumpypants." The prisoner, who was a 5'7" skinny white girl, had a dull set of green eyes and blonde hair that was shoulder length. She was wearing a modified orange prisoner jumpsuit, as its torso part was tied around her waist, and she wore a black belly shirt and black boots to go with it. This prisoner's name was Deena Loveberry. Deena yawned, "What is it this time?"

"You're being transferred to a different prison, come with us." The guards put a pair of handcuffs on Deena and led her out of her cell and then to the exit of the prison.

"Sweet, anything's better than this dump." Deena stretched her arms out as she and the prison guards left the prison. After a long while of walking and going through a quick patdown, the trio got to a cop car that was parked a fairly far distance from the prison Deena was situated in. The guards mumbled something to themselves as Deena sat by the car, "Can you two bicker when we get in the car? It's hot outside." Deena smugly said. Something interesting to note about Deena was that she didn't even change back into her regular clothes, she just kept her prisoner clothes on.

One of the guards turned to face Deena and immediately hit her in the stomach with his baton, causing her to fall to the ground in surprise. "Stupid bitch." The guard mumbled to himself as both of them beat her unconscious. The guards then looked around to make sure nobody was watching and put Deena's body in the car, "Now Jacob," One of the guards spoke to the other in the car, "Let's get the other thirteen prisoners to that show so we can get paid!"

"Fine by me Edward." The other guard said while sitting in the driver's seat, "A little extra pay never hurt." Both of the guards then burst out laughing.

Intro Start

The intro started off with a shot of the prison, but instead of cameras popping out, the shot just went to static and cut over to the prison library.

"..." Inside the prison library, Aztaroth was reading a book but was interrupted when a loud crash came from behind him.

"..." The crash was revealed to have come from Romeo, who accidentally knocked over a bookshelf with his strength.

"..." After another static cut, Jade was seen picking up bits of litter in the courtyard, with a guard threatening to hit her if she didn't.

"..." Off in the distance, Picollo was washing off his makeup, suggesting that he didn't wanna wear it here.

"..." With the screen again turning to static, the shot was now of inside the cafeteria where Deena was eating breakfast for the day.

"..." Also in the cafeteria was Edna, who was eating god knows what.

"..." The shot stayed on Deena and Edna for a bit, before suddenly jumping to George who was looking outside from an old watchtower.

"..." George turned around, to see that a grinning Clover was behind him, causing the athlete to jump in surprise.

"..." With yet another static cut, we now got a shot of Relinda desperately trying to call someone on the prison phone, to no avail.

"..." Also in the phone room was Quinn, who had a chart of all the other contestants in her hand.

"..." Suddenly, the screen changed over to Davy and Rival, who were trying to avoid Chris in the main cell block.

"..." Off to the left side of the cellblock, Jacque and Monica were trying to talk, but for some reason couldn't remember their conversation.

"..." Finally, on the right side of the cellblock was Chef and Salem, with the former looking concerned and the latter grinning evilly.

"...There is no escape…" Instead of the final shot of the intro being of the campers around some sort of campfire, it was of a darkened figure with the dullest and deadest eyes ever…

Intro End

"So you're that bigshot drug dealer, huh?" Jacob asked Jacque Metoyer a 5'9" chestnut brown-skinned man who had an average build, black hair, dark brown eyes. His hair was in a short, taper fade-styled haircut that had waves on the top. His outfit was very plain, as it consisted of red shoes, tight blue jeans with holes in the knees, and a red basketball jersey with the number one written on it in a big white bold font on both the front and back.

"No," Jacque protested as he was dragged towards the cop car, "Ion sell drugs, that's the dumbass that got me into this mess. I'd rather not go that far." Jacque rolled his eyes as he was shoved into the cop car, "Yeah yeah, tell it to the 'judge'." Edward mocked Jacque before closing the door on him. "Yeah, I told it to him a month ago." Jacque mumbled to himself, "Damn him, why did I have to take the fall for him being a dumbass?" Jacque asked himself before he started to smell something strange in the car, "What the?" Jacque then noticed some sort of fumes coming from the vents of the car. Jacque tried to open the door, but his handcuffs made it too hard and even if he could get the handle, the car was locked. "You assholes! Let me out of here!" Jacque kicked at the window, but eventually fell asleep because of the fumes in the car…

"Ugh, how disgusting." Jacob held a leash that was attached to a 5'11" pale caucasian girl who was drooling from her mouth. She barked and woofed as the duo dragged her to the cop car. "I know people call prisoners animals and all, but this chick takes the term way too literally!" Jacob kicked the girl in the side. The girl, whose name is Bella Prince, but goes by the name of Edna Cullen, wore a pretty dull outfit, it being a gray crop-top with only its left sleeve, a gray skirt, and gray boots. Her hair was short and messy black hair, which went together well with her pale blue eyes.

"Oh, fuck this!" Edward took out his baton and hit Edna over the head with it, "I'm not dealing with her slobbering all over the place!" Edna fell to the ground as Jacob grinned and said, "I couldn't agree more." Instead of being knocked out like the duo expected, Edna simply got back up and smiled, "Oh yes! Do it again please!"

Jacob and Edward stared at Edna, shocked that she would want to be hit again, "Uhh… as you wish?" Edward hit her again on the head, but she got back up and asked for it again. "Augh, let's just take her to the car, this isn't working." Jacob dragged Edna on the leash who replied with, "Yayy! Edna's going on a field trip!"

"Nyooo! You got it all wrong officers! I didn't set fire to that restaurant! I swear it was the waitress!" Quinn Potter begged. Quinn was a 5'7" light ivory-skinned girl with a slim build to her. Quinn had regular blue eyes and messy black hair, along with wearing a red shirt with the end torn and a dark purple heart that was on fire on it, blue denim shorts, and gray sneakers.

"Yeah yeah yeah, we've heard the blame someone else schtick before Quinn. Just get in the damn car." Jacob shoved Quinn to the car door.

"Come on! I didn't do anything," Quinn gave a nervous look, "Well, asides from stalking some future couples anyways, why do I have to be transferred to a new jai-" Quinn was cut off by Edward coming up from behind her and suffocating her with a towel. "Mmmhmhhmmh!' Quinn struggled as Jacob held her down. After a short struggle, Quinn eventually passed out from her attack, with Jacob and Edward throwing her in the car in annoyance. "We really need to get a more sound method." Edward panted as he closed the door to the car.

"Yeah, but not all of these work on everyone so let's just keep changing it up." Jacob got into the driver's seat of the car.

"I knew being in touch with you previously would pay off," A 6'2" average-built male with pale ivory skin said as he sipped a cup of tea, "How's the whole underground crime business working out for ya?" This man, whose name is Matthew Matthews but goes by the first name of Aztaroth had the most complex outfit so far, as he was wearing a long black gothic coat with red accents, chains, with each type of card printed on the lower part of the coat, underneath that he wore a black gothic vest with a very intricate design, a black bowtie and an ace of diamonds broach on the bowtie, black pants with a chain attached to the belt loops, black steel-toed boots, and black fingerless gloves with chains connected to his outer knuckles. Lastly, his hair was shoulder length and it went over the right side of his face, with black being its color and he had two eyes that you couldn't tell the color of because he was wearing red contacts.

"Pretty well Aztaroht, Pech is pretty pleased with how much your family funds everything." Jacob grinned as he drove to a dock that lead to the prison's very large lake. "Well, looks like this is your stop, good luck with this." Edward gave Aztaroth a thumbs up as he headed out the car and onto the dock, where a boat was waiting for him. "Thank you," Aztaroth waved goodbye to the two 'cops', "But I doubt I'll need it."

"Man, fuck you both!" A 6'4" purely muscled caucasian man spat at Jacob, he had his blonde hair in a mohawk style, and had basic blue eyes. He was wearing a pretty rockstar-esque outfit, consisting of an opened leather jacket over a red t-shirt, a silver choker, black fingerless gloves, blue jeans with a silver belt buckle, and black and blue tennis shoes. His name was Davis Pervcival Bartholomew Wolfgang Amadeus III, but for clarity's sake, he goes by the name of Davy Amadeus.

"Classy." Jacob rolled his eyes as he kicked Davy in the gut, the rocker didn't go down without a fight however, as he elbowed Edward and tried to run away from Jacob, who responded by pulling out his taser and tasing Davy before he could get anywhere. "Nice try hotshot," Davy struggled on the ground while Jacob put an extra pair of handcuffs on him, "I like your fighting spirit though, so I hope you'll do good in that place." Jacob complimented Davy, before hitting his face into the floor and knocking him out.

"Wow, you've been pretty quiet this whole time, haven't you?" Edward asked a guy who was sitting in the backseat of the cop car. The man was a muscular 6'4" warm ivory-skinned male who had brown eyes and shaggy brown hair that was in the style of a mullet. His outfit was a brown jacket that was unzipped, a white undershirt, brown leather pants, black boots, and a cowboy hat. This man was Romeo McFarland.

"I don't talk to city slickers like you, ma and pa say it's bad." Romeo mumbled to himself.

"Really now?" Edward grinned, "Hey Jacob stop the car." Edward asked his partner who obliged his request.

Edward got out of the car, opened the door, and pulled Romeo out. "How's about you learn some respect boy?" Edward hit Romeo across the face, causing him to fall to the ground, "Who knows what might just happen if you don't?" Edward looked over at a nearby bridge and dragged Romeo to the railing of it.

"Hey! Let me go! This isn't funny!" Romeo punched at Edward who grinned in response.

"Are you sure?" Edward picked Romeo up and threw Romeo to the railing, pretending to let go of him, "This seems pretty hilarious to me." Romeo yelped in fear which caused Edward to grin even more, "You still think I'm a 'city slicker'?" Edward asked Romeo, who nervously shook his head 'yes'."Good." Edward then headbutted Romeo and knocked him out, "You've learned your place."

"Damn," Edward sighed, "You're bringing down the mood here, you know that?" Edward asked Rival Seizon a 5'9" somewhat-muscular, pale man with red eyes and dyed red spiky hair with a spot of block on the right side of his bangs. His clothes were a black hoodie over a white shirt, with blue jeans and red sneakers. "Sorry." Rival responded while looking down at the floor of the cop car, "I'm just a little preoccupied." Rival sighed.

Jacob rolled his eyes, "Just knock him out already Edward, this is getting boring." Jacob tapped Edward on the shoulder, who unsheathed his baton.

"Wait what?" Rival looked up and got a baton to the face, immediately causing him to black out.

"It's no fun when they don't beg or try to escape." Jacob complained, "This guy's sooo fucking boring." Edward laughed at Jacob's statement, "Hell yeah he was." Edward poked Rival with his baton, "So boring it took one hit to knock him out clean." Jacob stopped the car at the dock to Hope's Lament, "Well, there's always the next guy I guess."

"Hey I recognize you!" Jacob said to the latest prisoner he and Edward had, "You're that skinny Georgian kid who's a master football player." Jacob handcuffed the new prisoner. This new prisoner's name was George Jackson, a 5'6" scrawny and dark-skinned male with brown eyes and short black hair that was kind of shaggy. Like Jacque before him, George also wear a red jersey, but this one was a football jersey and had the number thirteen on it in white bold letters, he also wore brown cargo shorts and black tennis shoes.

"How'd a bigshot like you end up in jail?" Jacob asked George.

"Someone beat up the player that lost our team the game, I can't feel sorry for him though. That bitch deserved it." George smirked, getting a laugh out of Jacob and Edward.

"You know for that one kid," Jacob put George in the cop car, "We won't knock you out while transferring you like we did with all the other prisoners." Jacob closed the door on George, who smugly smiled. "Ah favoritism, my favorite thing in the world." George thought to himself as Edward and Jacob got in the car and drove him off.

"Oh, you don't know how satisfying it is to have you in our clutches, robin hood." Edward slammed a 5'6" caucasian girl's face onto the hood of the cop car, "I heard you've been causing a lot of trouble for the rich folks in town… looks like your streak is over… how sad." Edward kicked the girl in the side, causing her to cough in pain. The girl had light brown eyes and brown medium-length hair that was side-swept to the right. She wore a pair of goggles on her head, a black leather jacket, a purple t-shirt, black ripped jeans, a jade necklace, and black boots. This girl was Jade, her last name being unknown.

"It wasn't me who stole from that museum, they caught the wrong person!" Jade struggled against Jacob and Edward.

"Sure sure sure," Edward rolled his eyes, "But a thief is still a thief, so you're still getting transferred to that new prison… unless…" Edward threw Jade to the ground and put his fists up, "Just beat me in a fistfight right here and now and I'll let you go." Edward grinned as Jade got up to fight him. Jade rushed towards Edward to punch him, but Edward ducked and jabbed her in the stomach and hit her in the head, knocking Jade out in two hits. "Ah, come on, that was too easy." Edward looked at his fallen foe, "You're gonna get ripped to shreds in there."

"I know you're transferring the patient and all." A psych ward doctor spoke to Edward and Jacob, "But please be careful when transferring patient number seventy-six, she's…." The doctor gulped, "More than unstable."

"Got it doc," Jacob shook the doctor's hand after reaching patient #76's cell, "We're professionals, so don't worry about it." Jacob and Edward were about to enter the room when the doctor gave them a syringe, "Use this in case she tries acting up, it keeps her knocked out for a good while." Jacob shook his head as he and Edward entered the room.

Inside the room was a 5'9" beige skinned girl with two enormous bright pink pigtails and bright red eyes. She wore a white, unzipped jacket over a black t-shirt with a bright red eye on it, along with a red skirt, black choker, and black heeled boots. "Oh god, she looks like the villain from that murder mystery game we played that one time." Edward moaned as the two approached the girl, whose name was Clover Warrington.

"Oh hello." Clover smiled, "What do you two gentlemen want with a lady like myself?" Clover playfully messed with the floor padding of her cell.

Jacob didn't even bother responding, instead choosing to pull his gun out and aim it at Clover, "You're being transferred, come with us and you won't get hurt… Clover." Jacob's eyes looked more serious than before.

"Oh by all means officer." Clover put her head up to the barrel of the pistol, "Shoot me! Pull the trigger and feel the despair of killing another person!" Clover maniacally laughed, before Edward came up behind her and stuck her in the neck with the syringe. Clover's eye's widened as passed out from the injection.

"Nice distraction." Edward complimented his partner as he took the syringe out, "There's no way this bitch was gonna let us inject without it."

"Another boring person, huh?" Jacob rolled his eyes as he and Edward dragged Relinda Temple to the cop car. Relinda wore a pretty basic outfit, that being a red shirt, black skirt, long red pants, and black boots. Her height was 5'11" and her physique was fairly average. Her skin was ivory-toned and her eyes were a light blue and she had medium-length blonde hair that went down to her neck. "Come on, fight back or struggle or something!"

"Why should I bother? You're both stronger than me and police officers." Relinda sighed as they reached the car, "Just take me to the new prison already."

Jacob shrugged, "Well if that's what you want." Jacob said before nonchalantly tasing Relinda in the gut, causing her to blackout. "I hate it when they don't attempt to fight back," Jacob rolled his eyes, "They're all so weak." Jacob scoffed as he lifted Relinda's unconscious body up and threw it into the car.

"I agree." Edward stretched his arms out, "Some of these guys aren't gonna last."

"I never expected to see the Monica Rosette Lee, in jail. Yet, here we are." Jacob held Monica's arms behind her back and dragged her to the cop car. Monica was the shortest person of all the prisoners, standing in at only 5'0". She was also a very slim person with fair skin, black hair that was wavy and reached her back, and dark brown eyes. Her clothes were a loose pink sweater over a white collard shirt, with a gray plaid skirt and black tights on her legs. Lastly, she wore a pair of white tennis shoes.

"Yeah…" Monica store blankly at the car, "I ended up getting mixed up with my sister. Now I'm stuck in a horrible situation." Jacob unsheathed his baton behind Monica's back, "Oh trust me Mon, it's about to get a whole lot worse." Jacob lifted up his baton and knocked Monica over the head with it, causing Monica to pass out and hit the roof of the car. "And then there were one," Jacob said to Edward while taking out a clipboard from the car. "We're about to get paid."

"How does it feel to be the last prisoner transferred Guiseppe?" Edward asked a man in a… clown outfit? Yeah… the man, whose name is Giuseppe Bilancia, but refers to himself as Picollo, was wearing a pink, blue, and yellow clown outfit, giant red shoes, a red clown nose, and white clown make up with a rainbow wig. He had a very short and scrawny build, being only 5'1" tall and his eyes were brown. "The story of my life," Picollo mumbled as Jacob and Edward opened up the cop car door.

"Alright, get in." Edward pushed Picollo, who was staring at something in the car… why was there blood on the seats? It wouldn't be too unnatural for a police officer to have blood on their seats if, say, a violent criminal got into a fight with them… but these guys were supposed to be transferring people…

"I said mov-" Edward was cut off by Picollo kicking him in the leg, which didn't hurt but it caught him off guard. "Bastardi! Non siete agenti di polizia vero?" Picollo shouted in Italian, before trying to run off from Jacob and Edward.

"Nice try." Jacob pulled out his taser and shocked Picollo, who fell to the ground. "You've got quite the fighter in you…" Jacob walked over to Picollo with a baton, "Too bad it just got you in more trouble." Jacob and Edward both beat Picollo with their batons, to the point where he was severely bruised. "You're lucky we can't kill you, because you'd be dead for that." Jacob grinned at Picollo who mumbled something under his breath. "What was that?" Jacob asked the injured Picollo, who spat blood on his face, "You don't learn do you?" Jacob knocked Picollo out with his baton and threw him into the car.

"That guy had some serious balls to think he even stood a chance." Edward rolled his eyes, "But let's just deliver him to the prison and get paid, Chris said he'd mail it to the boss after all of the prisoners arrived at the prison…

Three Weeks Later:

Monica hummed to herself while sitting in her cell, everyone here was supposed to be on some new season of Total Drama or something, but all that had happened was they had a short interview with Chris and they met their warden, some demon guy named Salem. Monica's outfit had notably changed from what she was wearing when she had met Jacob and Edward, as her sweater and tights were ripped, and her shoes were now scuffed.

In fact, with the exception of Monica, everyone's outfits had been changed to some sort of custom-designed outfit, Deena was wearing a black jumpsuit with different types of food printed on it. Jacque was wearing an orange jumpsuit with a white wife-beater underneath. Edna had a grey jumpsuit with the arms and legs cut off. Quinn wore an orange jumpsuit with red flames drawn on the sleeves and black shoes with random names and hearts drawn on them. Aztaroth wore a fancy black v-neck jumpsuit that was unzipped at the top and showed an ace of spades, with gold chains attached to the jumpsuit and black boots. Most notably about Aztaroth, was that he was still wearing his coat. Davy wore a simple orange jumpsuit but kept his choker and gloves. Romeo had mud-covered jeans and a white undershirt, along with his cowboy hat. Rival wore a plain dark red jumpsuit with a black unzipped jacket on top of it. George wore a generic orange jumpsuit. Jade wore a green jumpsuit with black cuffs and her necklace. Clover wore a half-white, half-black jumpsuit. Relinda also wore a generic orange jumpsuit. Lastly, Picollo had the biggest change in appearance, as he took off his clown makeup and revealed that he had brown hair styled in a ponytail, of course, he still wore an orange jumpsuit.

Monica continued humming to herself, eventually annoying George, who kicked his cell's bars and shouted, "Oh my god! Shut up!" George gave an annoyed look to Monica.

"Jeez," Monica crossed her arms, "Sorry."

"Can you guys keep it down?" Deena rubbed her eyes, "I'm trying to sleep so I can wake up at dinnertime." Deena yawned.

"I would keep it down if Monica could be quiet." George crossed his arms.

"Can we not fight for once?" Jade fixed her hair, "Almost every day we've been here somebody starts a fight with someone else."

Confessional: Deena

"Damn, this place is really annoying." Deena rubbed her head, "I know it's a legal-free method of escaping if I win this competition, but I might just escape this place if this keeps up."

Confessional Over

"He's here…" Salem's voice echoed throughout the cellblock, "The man of the hour… Chris McLean!" Chris walked into the cellblock with Salem in tow.

"Oh, whoopee!" Jacque rolled his eyes, "The fool that sold his soul to a demon."

Confessional: Jacque

"Ion know why Chris thought summoning a demon was a good idea," Jacque tapped on the walls of the confessional, "Salem's just gonna stab his dumbass in the back."

Confessional Over

"Hello prisoners," Chris grinned, "It's been a while hasn't it?" Chris spoke out to the prisoners, receiving mostly groans in response, "Salem… open their cells please."

"Of course." Salem gave a big smile and snapped his fingers, causing all of the cell doors to be torn open from the middle, "I'd listen to the boss-man if you value your life…" Salem cackled.

"Edna can run around!?" Edna got on all fours and ran into the open cellblock, with some prisoners calmly following behind and others being more apprehensive.

"This isn't a trick, is it?" Rival gulped and clenched his fist.

"Oh… I'd never lie about this… I have an offer to make you…." Chris laughed before leading the prisoners to the front entrance.

"I'm not so sure about this." Relinda shook as she followed Chris and the others.

Chris led everyone to the main entrance and stopped right by the main door to the prison. Off to the side of the room, Chef sat at a table and shook his head, not approving of what he saw. On the table, was a somewhat small briefcase containing… something.

"Heres' how this works, prisoners," Chris turned to face everyone, "You're all here for a reason… and I'm sure you know why that is."

"Well yeah, we're all prisoners." Romeo crossed his arms.

"Correct, but I have an offer for you…" Chris pressed the button to open the door, revealing the outside world, "You can either participate on this show and leave legally… or you can escape now and be hunted by the proper authorities… it's all your choice…"

"Like hell Davy's staying here!" Davy walked towards the open doors outside.

"Are you sure?" Chris walked over to the table and held up the small briefcase, "I have an incentive I know you can't resist."

"Davy ain't gonna lose an easy escape just for some money he could make at one of his shows!"

"Yeah, I'm right behind you." George followed Davy.

"Truly a shame," Chris sighed, "I'd have thought that you would enjoy earning one hundred million."

Those words stopped Davy in his tracks, "How much did you offer Davy?"

Chris grinned as he opened up the case, revealing a check that was colored gold, "One hundred million dollars if you win this season…"

Davy stared blankly at the check, "Well, since Davy obviously will win… it wouldn't hurt to make some cash…"

"Are you serious!?" Relinda shouted at the rocker, "You're willing to throw away your life for money? I'm out of here!" Relinda began to walk out of the prison but she stopped when she noticed something, she was back at the beginning of the hallway. "Wait what?" Relinda tried to run forward into the hallway but wasn't able to… something was blocking her from going forward.

"There was never a choice Relinda," Chris closed the briefcase, "You will play this game, and you will not put up a fight."

Just like that, the previously terrified Relinda stood up and straight and walked back into the cellblock with the rest of the inmates.

Some of the inmates, like Rival and Jade, stood in pure shock as Relinda stood soullessly in the cellblock hall. Other inmates, like Romeo and Deena, could care less about some girl they barely knew.

"Oh, how despair-inducing…" Clover smiled, "Taking away our freedom right when it's in our grasp!" Clover raised an eyebrow, "Though… I wonder why Relinda just stood still like that."

Davy tried to ignore everything that was happening around him, "So, uhhh, do we still get to keep the money if we win?" Davy looked over at Chris who was unresponsive, "Hey! Chris!" Davy snapped his fingers, with no reaction coming from the formerly sinister host… it was as if he was a husk of himself…

"Huh?" Chris suddenly jumped back to life, "Oh.. yes… you get to keep the money…"

Chef shook his head while watching everything go down.

Confessional: Chef

"This place ain't normal, that's for sure." Chef crossed his arms, "Whatever it's done to Chris is… terrible."

Confessional Over

"Now that you've all 'agreed' to stay here, let me explain the rules." Chris began, as interns with cameras entered the room and began filming, "Rule number one is obvious… violence against me, Salem, or Chef is forbidden… and it will be punished with solitary confinement. Rule number two, if you even try to escape… hehe… well, Salem will get to have a new toy…"

Some of the prisoners gulped at the thought of Salem catching them escaping, "Rule number three… all prisoners must be in their cells by nine pm, or they will be locked in solitary… three rules is pretty easy to remember… don't you think?" Chris cackled, "Any questions…" Chris asked the prisoners.

Aztaroth raised his hand, "What about contraband items? What's on the list?"

"Contraband…?" Chris laughed, "There's no such thing as contraband here… After all, it's everyone for themselves… Any other questions?" Chris asked the prisoners, who all stayed silent in response. "Good… allow me to explain what your first challenge is…" Chris closed his fist, "When I investigated this prison the other month… I had discovered that this prison isn't normal…"

"Well yeah," Deena crossed her arms, "It's a dump." Deena rolled her eyes and got a few snickers out of the others.

"Oh… it is so much more than your… feeble mind could understand, Miss Loveberry… I discovered that this prison is home to the dark arts and black magic… everyone here… now has a gift…" Chris' eyes darkened.

"So you mean like superpowers?" Quinn raised an eyebrow, "Nyohoho! That sounds interesting!"

"If that's what you want to call them… yes… that is it." Chris replied.

"Oh you're full of it!" George rolled his eyes, "There's no such thing as superpowers! A demon is one thing, but powers are another! So prove it!"

"Ok…" Chris responded. Almost immediately after he had said that, every one of the prisoners felt a horrible headache, one so bad it felt like your head would be split open. That wasn't the worst of it either, as some people like Rival and Clover felt a pain that was imaginable. The only person who wasn't too bothered by the pain was Edna, but even she was struggling to deal with it.

Chris stopped the headaches, watching everyone fall to the ground and hold their heads, "Do you believe me now…?" Almost everyone said 'yes', nobody wanted to go through that pain again.

Confessional: Rival

"What the fuck was that?" Rival had tears in his eyes, "Oh god… I swear I saw Ally…" Rival cried into his arms.

Confessional Over

Confessional: Romeo

"Jj… he was right there… so was ma and pa…. I need to get out of here." Romeo gritted his teeth.

Confessional Over

Confessional: Picollo

"I don't know what that was… but I don't plan on angering Chris anytime soon… it definitely won't put me… ahead!" Picollo pulled out a horn and honked it twice, "Ugh, kill me."

Confessional Over

Confessional: Clover

"The feeling of that headache, it was even greater than despair!" Clover grinned, "How is that even possible!?"

Confessional Over

"Now that you've come around I've decided this…" Chris put the briefcase back on the table, "How about we discover what gifts everyone has… and hold an old-fashioned tournament of brawling to find out who's is the strongest?" Chris smiled at the prisoners. "I'll give you all three hours to train in cellblock B, where all of the cells have been turned into soundproof training rooms thanks to my lovely intern Salem…" Salem grinned as he smoked a cigar, "After you finish training, you will fight each other for your survival in this game… and the first seven losers will be up for elimination… and don't worry about destroying this old place… Salem can fix it instantly…"

"Davy likes that idea!" Davy fist pumped.

"Good, but there's more… the winner of this tournament will receive two rewards…. The first being a choice of who will be sent back to their original prison… and the second will be a letter from home…" The second reward caught the eyes of a lot of people in the prison, but the first also caught some eyes.

Confessional: Picollo

"I can get rid of anyone here if I win a few fights?" Picollo scratched his chin, "That's a pretty good incentive…"

Confessional Over

Confessional: Jade

"I can check on the orphanage and see how everyone is doing!" Jade looked happy, "I need to win this now!"

Confessional Over

Confessional: Clover

"Oh… who to choose if I win…?" Clover tapped the camera of the confessional, "So… so… many choices…"

Confessional Over

Confessional: George

"I've never been so excited to hear from dad ever… I actually wanna win this now…"

Confessional Over

Confessional Edna

"Yayyy! Edna gets to hear from brother King!" Edna happily panted, "Edna miss brother King!"

Confessional Over

"You're not lying are you?" Rival asked, "Like you just want to get us motivated to hurt each other?"

"No… I am, in fact, being truthful." Chris shrugged, "But for the losers… your letters from home will be destroyed… so keep in mind what you will be losing if you don't give it your all… Also... if you try to intervene with a fight after you finish yours... you lose... but I will allow you to get off scot-free as long as your opponent is up...

Some of the prisoners got nervous at the thought of losing their only chance of seeing how their families and friends were doing without them.

Confessional: Picollo

"Tch," Picollo crossed his arms, "Everyone back at the circus probably hates me more than already did…" Picollo let out a sigh, "I can't believe I'm saying this but… I miss home…"

Confessional Over

Confessional: Jacque

"I don't really have anyone who cares about me outside these walls… damn…" Jacque crossed his arms.

Confessional Over

"Now… before I leave you to your own devices… I have three more things to say." Chris reached under the table and pulled out a set of maps, "These will allow you to navigate the prison easier… and will show you where you are allowed to go… Secondly, I've hidden three 'Freedom Idols' around this prison, using them when you're eliminated will cause you to be set free instead of going back to jail… isn't that sweet of me?" Chris asked prisoners, with some instantly replying 'yes' to avoid the headache.

Confessional: Aztaroth

"My ticket out of here has arrived…"

Confessional Over

Confessional: Monica

"I just need to find that Idol and get out of here!" Monica said to herself.

Confessional Over

"And finally, I'll announce who's going to be fighting who and where they will take place…" Chris looked at the prisoners, "Aztaroth and Edna, you will be in the library in the basement floor…" Chris turned to Salem, "Make sure Edna finds her way down there…"

"Of course, you gave me the freak." Aztaroth rolled his eyes.

"Edna would love to play with the fancy guy!" Edna clapped her hands.

"Jacque and Relinda, you'll be in the gym near the cafeteria."

"Mmm." Jacque rolled his eyes, not interested in fighting.

"Oh… boy…" Relinda gulped, "I don't think I'm ready for this."

"Picollo and Monica, you'll be in the old recreational center."

"Oh I… um… don't have a pun…" Picollo scratched the back of his head.

"Ok… I… I can do this…" Monica told herself.

"George and Jade, you will go to the courtyard between watchtowers two and three."

"Oh bring it on missy!" George held his fists up, "I'll fight you right now if I need to!"

"Umm.. ok?" Jade looked at George with confusion.

"Rival and Romeo, you'll be fighting on watchtower three."

"Ah… I suppose that's a good place for a fight…" Rival fixed his jacket.

"I'm only gonna fight him for the letter… I don't care about anything else… Romeo clenched his fist.

"Quinn and Davy, you'll be in the phone room by the kitchen and basement entrance."

"Nyohoho… that sounds like a strange place for a fight." Quinn laughed.

"Yeah, Davy thinks that's lame!" Davy protested.

Chris ignored Davy's protests and moved onto the final two prisoners, "Lastly, Deena and Clover, you're going to fight in the morgue in the basement."

"Damn, I was hoping for the cafeteria… I'm hungry!" Deena crossed her arms.

"What a beautiful place to go…" Clover grinned.

"Now that you all know what to do… I'd suggest you get moving… as your three hours start… now!" Chris started a stopwatch, while all the prisoners ran off to Cellblock B.

Chef walked up to Chris and tapped on his shoulder, getting his attention, "Chris, man, have you lost it!?" Chef lectured his friend.

"What do you mean?" Chris crossed his arms.

"Doing this season with prisoners is one thing… but now you want them to fight each other!? What happened to you!?" Chef scolded Chris.

"These are but animals locked in a cage," Chris replied, "I am giving them the only chance they'll ever have for freedom… after all, I even had people come and add new features to this prison… there's nothing wrong with a harmless game."

"This isn't a game Chris," Chef yelled, "This could end with someone seriously getting hurt!" Chef closed his fist, "If you're not going to see why you're wrong… then I quit!" Chef walked towards the door of the prison, "Come back to me when you realize what you're doing wrong, before this blows up in your face!" Chef walked outside, causing Chris to roll his eyes in annoyance.

Salem's eyes glowed, "Do you want me to take care of him?" He asked Chris.

"No… he's not worth your energy…" Chris replied, "He's just a nobody in this world…"

Deena was the first person to make it to Cellblock B and found out that all of the cells were, in fact, transformed into rooms, with labeled doors on each of them. Deena ran over to the door with her name on it and entered, finding a pretty basic room, with only a target dummy, a barbell, and a weightlifting set.

"How am I supposed to figure out what my power is anyways?" Deena facepalmed, "There's no instructions whatsoever." Deena walked over to the set, "Ok, maybe it's super strength or something." Deena tried lifting the barbell, but it wasn't any different from how she'd normally lift it.

"Damn, this feels like a waste of time." Deena threw the bar to the floor, "Screw this, I'm just gonna go to the cafeteria and eat something. It'll be a much better way to spend my time." Deena thought of food that she missed in the outside world, "Damn, I miss eating pizza, why does this new prison have to have garbage?" Deena mumbled to herself as she felt something change in her mouth, suddenly her teeth felt way harder than usual, and her tongue felt pretty heavy.

"Huh?" Deena opened her mouth a bit and touched her teeth, feeling a smooth but crystal-like texture instead of bone, "That's weird… wait… what if my power makes my teeth chomp through anything?" Deena lifted up the barbell and winced as she bit down on it. To Deena's surprise, she bit straight through the bar and was able to chew on it like it was nothing. Deena spat out the barbell, "Pew! That didn't taste very good." Deena gagged, "But that power can be very dangerous… good to know that I'll be responsible with it… Deena thought to herself as she walked out of her training room, probably to go to the cafeteria.

"So that wasn't my mind messing with me back at the interview…" Jacque said to himself as he sat in the middle of his training room, "I have some sort of mind-reading power." Jacque got up and stood still, "Ok… I'll see what Quinn is thinking about… Jacque focused on thinking about Quinn and eventually heard, "Wow! Deena and Jacque are would make the cutest couple, ring through his ears." Jacque gagged at the thought, "Ew… no…"

Jacque then looked down and noticed a purple aura covering his entire body, "Hmmm?" Jacque could feel the energy of the aura around him… "Ok… maybe it's much more than that… I must have psychic powers of some sort…" Jacque thought about the weight in his room being lifted, and watched as it did just that. "This may be easier than expected…" Before Jacque could play around with his powers, he heard somebody knock on his door.

Jacque opened the door and found Chris on the other end, "What do you want?" Jacque cautiously asked.

"I need you to come with me… something has caught my attention." Chris began to walk away.

Jacque, not wanting to get hit with the headaches decided to follow Chris, but had a bad feeling about it.

After a short while of walking, Chris turned a corner and… disappeared?

"Where did he go?" Jacque thought to himself as he looked around for Chris. The host couldn't have just abandoned him in a random part of the prison…

"Jacque Metoyer…." A voice screeched through Jacque's head, causing him to fall to the ground in pain.

"What the hell!?" Jacque held his head, he could feel something… no…. Someone inside of his brain. "GET… OUT…" Jacque screamed as he could feel his own body turning on him.

"You're gonna wish you made this easy for the both of us…" The voice said in Jacque's mind before Jacque suddenly punched himself in the stomach.

"Who…" Jacque huffed as he held his gut, "Who… are you?"

"That's not important, what's important is that you may be of use to me…." Jacque heard a voice echo from all around him.

"Like hell I'll let-" Jacque tried to put up a fight but stopped when he felt something…. His own psychic aura was choking him…

"You can't fight me, Jacque…." The voice mocked Jacque as he struggled to breathe…

Jacque prepared to pass out, before he suddenly felt his aura stop choking him, "No…" The voice said… "You're of no use to me… return to your training room."

"No way I'm go-" Jacque stepped forward, nearly hitting the barbell in his room, Jacque then held his head, "Why am I just standing around here? I'm supposed to be training!" Jacque glanced over at the clock in his room, and noticed that it had already been two hours, "What!? What made me lose track of the time!?" Jacque thought, now completely unaware of what had happened.

Edna sat in her training room and panted, "Edna wonder what she gets?" Edna said to herself as she looked around. "But Edna doesn't care! Edna just wants to play with the fancy guy!" As soon as Edna said that, claws ripped their way through Edna's hands, and fangs poked in her mouth.

Edna felt the change in her body and giggled, "Oooh Edna can definitely play with these!" Edna scratched her arm, leaving a pretty bloody mark, "Fun! Fun! Fun!" Edna jumped around, scratching random objects with her claws. Even the steel on the barbells wasn't immune to Edna. "Ohohoho! Edna is ready to play!" Edna got her claws ready.

"Nyooo…" Quinn had already tried out a multitude of powers, but she couldn't figure out for the life of her what her power was. "At least I still have my fire…" Quinn found a lighter in the room and lit it, distracting her from her power troubles. Quinn messed around with the lighter, seeing as it was the only thing keeping her entertained… until she realized that the flame was perfectly following her movements.

"Nyo?" Quinn threw the lighter, but aimed her hand at it, causing the fire to remain lit. "Nyohoho!" Quinn jumped up, "Of course, I can control fire, why didn't I think of that?" Quinn facepalmed as she messed around with the flame until it died out from its movement. "Nyohoho! I'm ready for you Davy!"

Like Quinn before him, Aztaroth was also trying to see what power he has and coming up short. "Come on… I gotta have something!" Aztaroth said in desperation as he tried to find something that he could use. "Agh!" Aztaroth shouted out, "GODDAMMIT!" Aztaroth hit a dumbbell with his fist, causing it to break in half.

"Huh?" Aztaroth looked at the broken dumbbell, "I thought I didn't have super strength?" Aztaroth turned to the wall, "Guess I'll find out," Aztaroth then punched the wall… and seriously hurt his hand. "AGH!" Aztaroth grabbed his injured hand, "What the hell!?" Aztaroth stomped his foot, causing the ground beneath him to crack, "What?" Aztaroth looked at the broken floor. "Wait… is my power strength based on how angry I am… that could explain it… Damn, that sounds useless…" Aztaroth growled.

"Oh yeah!" Davy played an air guitar, "Davy's getting superpowers!? Sweet!" Davy shot fire out of his mouth when he said that, but didn't even notice that he had.

"Now… Davy wonders what his power is? Hmm…" Davy thought for a bit, "Oh, Davy knows! It's gotta be psychic powers!" Davy reached his hands out and expected something to happen, but nothing did. "Damn!" Davy sighed, again breathing fire out while he closed his eyes. "Huh?" Davy looked up, "Davy thought he felt something different!" Davy looked around and then noticed the ground was on fire.

"AH!" Davy jumped up and shot fire out of his mouth, "Oh so that's what the power is, BUT NEVERMIND THAT, THE ROOM'S ON FIRE!" Davy stomped the fire out, before calming down. "Phew" Davy breathed more fire onto the ground, "Good thing Davy took care of it," Davy opened his eyes and saw the floor was, once again, on fire, "AH!"

Romeo headed over to the barbell, super-strength was the first thing he had in mind for a power. "I gotta be strong or something." Romeo grabbed the barbell and… yeah… he was able to lift it with relative ease. "Heh!" Romeo threw the barbell to the floor, causing it to make a loud clanging sound, "I knew it. But I should test this power out first."

Romeo turned his attention to the training dummy of the room and hit it, causing it's head to completely fly off upon impact. "Damn, I should hold back against that city kid if that's how hard I'm gonna be hitting." Romeo put his hands on his hips, "But at least I'll be able to beat him with ease." Romeo lifted up the barbell and tore it in half, just to see how strong he truly was.

"Ok… I just need to stay calm…" Rival said to himself, "I've never had to fight to keep myself out of prison before, so I gotta figure out what my power is to stay in this." Rival calmed himself down, "Ok Rival… don't think about the fighting, just think about discovering a new trick…" Rival grabbed the barbell but stopped when he saw sparks appear on it.

"Huh?" Rival let go of the barbell and stepped back, "Was that my power?" Rival stepped back to the barbell and grabbed it again, with more sparks appearing. "Do I have electric powers?" Rival jumped back and stretched his arms out, focussing purely on them… and lightning did shoot out of his hands. "This is amazing!" Rival shouted, "But there's one more thing I want to try…" Rival focused the lightning into a shape… and he formed it into a sword, "Yes!" Rival got rid of the electric sword, "Alright, Romeo, I'm ready for you!"

"Oh, I am so beating up that girl!" George cockily stated, "I'm gonna get some super op power and just kick her ass I can already tell!" George then stepped forward and shot a multitude of abilities from his hand, all of them packing a serious punch, "Oh yeah, I've got this!".

"Yeah, it's gonna be so cool." George thought, revealing that that was all just him imaging getting that power, "Alright give me my elemental fists!" George pushed his arm forward, but instead of elements coming out, two vine-like tendrils shot out instead. "Hmm?" George looked up, "Ok, not what I expected, but a knockoff spiderman ain't too bad." George shot the tendril at the dummy, which didn't stand a chance against the vine. "Oh yeah," George pulled the tendril back to him, "This is gonna be easy." George continued to mess around with his tendrils.

"Ok… I think I can beat George. I just need to see what power I have." Jade said to herself while looking around the room, "Hmm, maybe it's super-speed?" Jade ran forward, but it was no faster than she already was. "Well, that isn't it…" Jade began to think to herself what her power could be, not noticing that crystals were forming on her arm.

"Well, maybe it'... wait what?" Jade looked down and noticed her entire arm was covered in a light green crystal, causing her to jump back in surprise. "So I can turn my body into crystals?" Jade said as crystals formed over her body, "Can I make weapons with them too?" Jade thought about making a knife with her power… and it did indeed form right in front of her. "Woah…" Jade watched as she now had a full set of armor, "With a power like this, I feel pretty good about my chances…"

Clover stepped into her room with a smile on her face, "Oh what could my power be?" Clover giggled, "Maybe I can turn my fingers into knives or control blood…" Clover laughed, "But the best of all would be having no power… oh…" Clover put her hands on her face, "That would give me a new type of despair…"

As soon as Clover said that, a monster-like creature jumped out of her mouth and onto the floor, "Well hello there! Who are you?" Clover tried to touch the monster, but her hand went through it. The monster crawled around the room, but eventually stopped and stayed where it was. "You must be waiting for someone to attack, huh?" Clover started to laugh maniacally, "Oh, I know just the girl for that job!"

"God…" Relinda put shoved her face into her hands, "I can't believe I have to fight Jacque just to keep myself safe!" Relinda did her best to not cry, but could still feel tears going down her cheeks, "I don't want to fight people… I just want things to go back to normal…" Relinda wiped her tears away.

"I have no choice though." Relinda got up, "I have to fight Jacque… and I have to learn my power." Relinda stretched her hands out, not expecting anything to happen, but to her surprise, she saw a sort of energy form around her hand, in a type of ball shape. "Huh?" Relinda thought as she watched the energy, "What is this?" Relinda looked out and saw that she was holding the training dummy in the air with psychic powers, "W-woah!" Relinda dropped the dummy on the ground, "I can control stuff with my hands…" Relinda dropped the dummy.

"Ok…" Relinda calmed herself down, feeling a lot better now that she had powers, "I have to beat Jacque… I can do it… I know it…" Relinda tested her psychic powers out more, "Why was I so worried?" She said to herself as she moved dumbbells around, "I think I can do this!" Relinda also said to herself, increasing her confidence and making her way more ready for a fight.

"Ok… I kinda lucked out by getting Picollo as my opponent," Monica thought to herself, "He's just as short and skinny as I am, so he's probably the only person here I can win a fight against." Monica thought to herself. "Dammit, that won't mean anything if Picollo has a really strong power… I'd better find mine out… and quick!"

Monica slowly breathed in and out to calm herself down, and then began to think of what her power could be, not even noticing that she had already activated it. "Ok…" Monica looked at the barbells, "Maybe I have a sort of magnetism?" Monica stretched her hand out… but was unable to see it. "Wait…" Monica made sure her hand was up… it was invisible. "Ok… that's a neat power… but it doesn't help me in the physical category." Monica glanced over at a small and empty barbell and got an idea…

Picollo held his hand out, waiting for something like fire or ice to come out. Instead of that, Picollo got disappointment. "Seriously?" Picollo lowered his hand, "How am I supposed to fight Monica if I don't have any powers?"

Picollo sat down and rubbed his eyes, "If I were stronger… maybe I wouldn't have to deal with this…" Picollo thought to himself as he felt something change, he looked up, but nothing was out of the ordinary until he looked down and saw his arms were now muscular.

"Wait, what?" Picollo jumped back, "I must have super strength," he thought to himself before casually lifting up some of the nearby weights, something he wouldn't normally be able to do.

Despite being stronger, he noticed something else was different, he was wearing different clothes… but he still wasn't taller or shorter. "Wait I recognize these clothes…" Picollo looked down and saw that he was now wearing a brown coat and leopard unitard, "Wait… am I Monstro?"

Picollo ran out of his training cell and into a nearby bathroom, he looked over at the mirror and sure enough, he didn't look like himself anymore, but rather his friend from the circus. "Well… I could get used to this…" Picollo flexed in the mirror.

Now in the warden's office, Chris pressed a button to activate the loudspeakers around the prison, "Attention Prisoners, it has been three hours… please make your way to your respective arena's or face being locked in solitary… oh… and feel free to do as much damage as you want, Salem is able to heal people from any injury… even death…" Chris released his finger from the intercom button and turned to face Salem.

"I must admit… I'm intrigued…" Salem scratched his chin, "I'm all too excited to see how these people rip themselves apart!" Salem clenched his fist.

"Yes… it will be very entertaining…" Chris sat back in the warden's chair, "I'm interested to see what strategies some of them will use… strategies that I wouldn't expect…"

The first of the seven fights… Jacque and Relinda both stood in what appeared to be an old gym for prisoners, though, the equipment in the gym seemed to be very old and rusty, not that they'd need it anyway.

"So are we supposed to just attack each other or something? I'm confused." Relinda raised an eyebrow.

Jacque didn't even bother to answer, he just rolled his eyes and suddenly Relinda went flying away from a psychic attack. "Well, that was a waste of time." He said to himself as he began to walk away.

Relinda got up and scoffed, "That was rude of you!" She then held her hand out and pulled Jacque over to her, "Allow me to return the favor!" She made a slapping motion, causing Jacque to be slapped across the face, which was blocked by… nothing?

Jacque groaned and facepalmed before Relinda was suddenly hit with a barrage of attacks each one coming from a different angle. "You can't touch me…" After Jacque said that, Relinda was lifted into the air and thrown away, where she then hit an old barbell upon landing.

"Augh…" Relinda slowly got up and rubbed the back of her head, "That's it…" Relinda's eyes began to glow purple as she held her hand out, causing Jacque to be lifted up by the neck. "Now it's your turn!" Relinda threw Jacque towards the wall, but he managed to deflect himself off of it with his aura.

Jacque turned his attention to Relinda and tried to do another barrage towards Relinda, but she sent a psychic punch straight towards him… except this one actually hurt. "Wait… what?" Jacque groaned as Relinda hit him again with her psychic powers, causing him to fly into a wall.

Jacque got up and hatched an idea, "If I can't beat you physically, then I'll just…" Jacque focused his pyshic energy to Relinda's brain, causing her to pass out from the energy, "And that's that." Jacque thought as he threw Relinda away.

"Huh? What happened?" Relinda shook her head, causing Jacque to look at his previously knocked out opponent in shock.

"You're supposed to be unconscious! How?" Jacque focused his energy into holding Relinda into the air, and then tried to hit her with some psychic energy but for some reason, Relinda fell down when he attacked.

Relinda acted fast and got a grip on Jacque's leg and tripped him up, "I don't know what you did… but I won't let you beat me!" Relinda dragged Jacque across the floor and shot him into the wall. Relinda then jumped onto the wall and used her power to have one of her arms stick to it. Jacque in turn used his aura to keep himself in the air

Relinda shot out more energy, but Jacque focused on dodging this time, not wanting to get hit by any of Relinda's attacks, but he found out that whenever he tried to attack in return, he'd fall off the wall. "So that's my weakness… I can't multitask. I'll just improvise." Jacque used his power to break a hole into the wall, one that he could use hold onto the wall while fighting Relinda.

"Stay still!" Relinda tried to hold Jacque down, but due to his quick speed, he was able to fight off her attacks.

"I'm done messing around." Jacque threw Relinda to the floor with his power. "You're finished." Jacque lifted up a weight lifting set and threw it straight towards Relinda, who managed to keep the set off of her, "All according to plan." Jacque picked up another set and threw it to Relinda, who had to hold back that and move it out of the way.

"Not…. yet.." Relinda threw the sets away, only for Jacque to send a huge psychic blast her way, hitting her straight to the floor, "I… won't lose to you!" Relinda noticed one of the nearby weapons, a baseball bat, which she threw at Jacque.

Jacque caught the bat but struggled to move it away with Relinda pushing it towards him, after a short clash of their abilities, Relinda proved victorious and sent the bat straight into Jacque's face, causing him to fall to the floor.

Jacque got back up and repaid Relinda with a sucker punch to the gut with his power, dropping her to the floor as well. "Just… give up already…" Jacque moaned.

"No! I'm not losing this!' Relinda stretched her arms out and grabbed something with her power.

Jacque prepared for another barbell or something to be thrown at him, but was confused when he started to hear a loud rumbling around the area, "Wait… is she?" Jacque looked around, only to feel pure horror as he saw the walls and ceiling of the gym be lifted up into the air and thrown directly upwards.

"WHAT THE HELL!?" Jacque shouted, "ARE YOU INSANE!?" Jacque stared in pure disbelief as he felt Relinda grab him and throw him straight up into the air.

Relinda crushed the walls and ceiling into a ball and threw that straight down at Jacque, who was stuck propelling towards the rubble. "Sorry… but I have to do this…" Relinda said under her breath as Jacque hit the rubble, causing a huge explosion of dust and debris around her.

Jacque fell from the explosion straight to the ground. Luckily for Jacque he managed to dodge another large set when he hit the ground, but unfortunately for him, he was covered head to toe in bruises, some of which were now bleeding hard.

Jacque panted heavily, he could hardly feel anything anymore. Relinda managed to protect herself from the falling debris and looked around the now destroyed gym, with part of the nearby cafeteria and now empty rec center destroyed as well. Relinda then noticed Jacque barely managing to get to his feet, "You're still up after that? S-sorry! I thought that would've knocked you out!" Relinda apologized to her injured foe.

"You'll get yours for this…" Jacque slipped to the floor, "I'm not gonna go out like this…" Jacque panted to himself, "I'm not gonna lose…" Jacque felt his aura growing, "I'm not going back to jail…" Jacque's aura began to shake hard, gaining the attention of Relinda, "...So you're gonna have to INSTEAD!" Jacque shouted causing his aura to surrounded Relinda and the entire area where the gym once was.

"Huh?" Jacque look around, some of the dust from the debris stopped moving and Relinda wasn't either… everything was still. Not wanting to lose the only chance he has to win, Jacque hopped over to a nearby dumbbell and picked it up. He then went over to Relinda and lifted it up, and hit her over the head with it twice, just for good measure. "I have to admit… I didn't think you were worth my respect… but you have the determination of someone who should have it." Jacque panted his aura went back to him, causing everything to start moving again.

"Augh!" Relinda fell to the floor from the two dumbbell hits. She grabbed her head, which she could already feel was bleeding. "H-how did you?" She stammered but regained her confidence, "No… I have to… keep… going!" She charged a huge psychic attack and sent it straight towards Jacque, who was now too tired to dodge.

Jacque sat still, fully braced for the impact of the hit, as he knew there was no way out of this. The attack reached Jacque, who then flinched and prepared to pass out… but nothing happened. His shield blocked it. "I'm ok?" Jacque thought to himself as he began to turn his head back to Relinda, but something happened… he couldn't move… anything. "W…what?" Jacque struggled to move but couldn't do anything, he then tried to speak but couldn't even open his mouth.

"I'm… not the brightest…" Relinda puffed, "But I noticed… you're covered in psychic energy, right? Plus, mine is stronger than yours… so what would happen if I…" Jacque looked in complete shock as he felt his aura shatter around him, leaving him defenseless, "Did this?" Jacque fell to the ground as he saw Relinda lift up some debris. "I'm sorry, Jacque…" Relinda threw the debris towards Jacque.

"G…." Jacque sat still, "Good job…" Jacque put his head down as the debris covered his entire body, causing him to immediately be knocked out.

Relinda released Jacque from the debris, and stopped him from hitting the floor, "You did great Jacque…"

Relinda has won her fight!

Quinn and Davy both sat in the phone room, both preparing to fight the other person for their safety. Quinn happily tapped her fingers against one of the phone booths in the room, slowly annoying Davy.

"Nyohoho!" Quinn giggled, "Aren't you going to make the first move?" Quinn said as she watched Davy pick up one of the phones and talk into it. "Nyo?" Quinn got up as Davy leaned over and talked to the phone, "Who are you talking t-"

Just then, Davy turned around, revealing that he was breathing onto the phone, and set it on fire. Davy pulled the phone from its cord and chucked straight towards Quinn, who got hit in the face due to the shock of Davy's makeshift weapon.

"Davy got you!" Davy ran over to Quinn and tackled her to the ground, "Now you're done!" Davy took a deep breath and breathed fire straight onto Quinn's face, whilst making sure the fire wasn't too hot so it wouldn't seriously hurt Quinn.

"Ow!" Quinn exclaimed as she rubbed the part of her face where Davy had hit with the phone, "Bad Davy! Bad!" Quinn turned Davy's fire breath around on him and pushed him straight into the wall with it, she then held Davy up against the wall with the fire. "Don't hit people with phones!" She yelled as she pressed harder against Davy.

In desperation, Davy shot a fireball straight towards Quinn, who dodged it with ease. "You missed, nyohoho!" Quinn laughed at Davy, who grinned and said, "Did Davy?"

"Huh?" Quinn turned around and looked over at where the fireball went, it hit the phone lines. Quinn laughed, "What's that suppose-" Quinn was interrupted when the phone lines exploded and sent her flying straight to Davy, who was released from his fiery prison and paid Quinn back with a kick to the gut."Davy thinks you're super weak!" Davy pointed to himself, "But don't worry, Davy will teach you how to be stronger! Observe!" Davy breathed fire straight towards Quinn, who got set on fire.

Not to be finished, she made the fire from the phone's explosion engulf Davy, so they were now both on fire. They both kept up their game of keeping the other on fire until they realized that neither of them were actually being affected by the flames. Both of them then pointed at each other and shouted, "OH MY GOD JUST BURN ALREADY!"

Davy smirked, "Fine, if Davy can't beat you with his fire…" Davy cracked his knuckles, "Davy can always beat you to a pulp!" Davy ran over to Quinn in punched her straight in the face. Davy then kicked Quinn in the stomach again, causing her to kneel over.

"Ow…" Quinn held her stomach, but she noticed a table off to the side… a table that just so happened to have weapons on top of it.

Davy tried to punch Quinn, but she rolled over to the table and picked up a knife that was on it. "Oh!" Quinn threw the knife away, as she didn't want to seriously scar her opponent, "Not that, sorry." Quinn instead opted to go for a baton that was on the table, and rushed towards Davy.

"Oh come on! Is that the best you got?" Davy grinned as he grabbed the baton out of Quinn's hands and hit her across the face with it, "Davy's fought professionals with these things, you're a kid compared to those losers!" Davy then continued his beatdown on Quinn by hitting her in the legs with the baton.

"Nyo…" Quinn grabbed a bit of fire from the explosion and threw it at the… wall?

"Ha!" Davy kicked Quinn, "What were you even aiming for?" Davy raised his arm to hit Quinn again but then smelt burning metal? Davy turned around and saw that Quinn had sent an old pipe on fire, causing it to melt.

"A distraction nyohoho!" Quinn punched Davy straight in the face, causing him to drop his baton. Quinn picked up the baton and had no hesitation beating Davy with it, which actually made the rocker fall to the ground. "Looks like I got you!" Quinn tried to bring the baton back down on Davy, but he caught the baton and lifted himself up, showing his physical superiority to Quinn.

Davy then hit Quinn in the face with a headbutt and threw her away from him. What Davy didn't realize was that he had thrown her straight into the path of the melted pipe… causing a less then fortunate burn on Quinn's face from molten metal. Quinn let out a scream of pure agony as she felt the heat from the metal, something that alerted Davy and made him realize that he seriously hurt her.

"Holy shit!" Davy ran over to Quinn, "Quinn, are you ok? I didn't mean-" Davy was cut off by Quinn scratching his face with her nails, causing him to start bleeding on his cheek, "Augh! What the hell!? I was trying to help you!"

Quinn held her burnt face with tears in her eyes and a look of rage on her face. Yeah, Salem was gonna heal her after this fight anyways, but to her the fact that Davy did that to her was enough for her to become enraged with him, ignoring that it was an accident. Quinn grabbed a bunch of the nearby fire and threw it towards Davy, confusing him.

"That doesn't hurt me Quinn! Just give up so Salem can heal you!" Davy bragged as the fire went around him.

"Nyo… but this can…" Quinn picked up the baton and threw it at Davy, which he began to use his heat breath to block it with, but when he started to breathe fire that's when Quinn made her move by forcing his fire and the fire she had set up earlier back down his throat, causing Davy to start suffocating.

"I control fire Davy! All you can do is breath it! And nyow… you're at my mercy…" Quinn snarled as Davy's eyes widened in fear as he felt his breath start to slip away, while Quinn just watched him. Davy just sat there… slowly suffocating… and Quinn watched until he passed out from the lack of oxygen.

Quinn eventually calmed down after Davy had passed out, and even started to realize what she had done, "Nyo… did I just…? I'm sorry Davy!" Quinn thought to herself as she sat in the burning room, with the horrid scent of burning glass covering the room…

Quinn has won her fight!

George and Jade both stood in the middle of the courtyard, with both of them prepared to fight the other.

"Alright!" Jade clapped her hands together, "Let's do this!"

George didn't even bother to hype himself up, he just rolled his eyes and shot a tendril at Jade, which she promptly avoided.

"Too slow!" Jade smirked before forming her armor, it took a good twenty seconds before it covered her body, but once it was complete she was now rocking a light green set of crystal armor, along with a sword and shield.

"Wow… that's lame!" George snickered as Jade charged towards him, not wanting to lose that easily, he shot another tendril towards Jade and tried to pull her sword away. "Yeah, that's mine now." George cocked his arm back, but the sword wasn't moving, Jade had attached it to her armor as an extra precaution.

"Nice try!" Jade cut George's tendril with her sword.

George's eye twitched as he sent more tendrils at his opponent, "Try cutting this!" The tendrils attached themselves to Jade's armor, and she was unable to move her arms to cut them. "HA! Got you!" George pulled Jade towards him with all of his might and then headbutted her when she got close enough… which just sent him to the floor instead of hurting Jade.

"OW! Why did I do that!?" George rubbed his head.

"Cute." Jade hit George in the chest with her shield, sending him flying.

"Damn," George kept rubbing his head, "But I still have you in my tendrils!" George pulled Jade towards him, even pretending to headbutt her again.

"Did you not learn from your previous mistake?" Jade asked George as she prepared to headbutt him back, but George played it smart and dodged her, he then tightened his grip on Jade's armor, in an attempt to crush it.

"Oh trust me," George cockily replied, "I learn from everything."

"Really now?" Jade formed something with her crystals.

"Yeah, I'm pretty much a pr-" George was cut off by a crystal being thrown at him and hitting him in the head, causing him to release his grip on Jade. Jade then ran up to George and hit him on the head with her shield, and gave him a slash across the arm with her sword.

George stumbled backward, but sent out more tendrils anyways, this time having them stay unattached so he could use them like whips. "Hey I can make shit too, I'm just more creative with it!" George grinned before whipping Jade's armor with his tendrils and actually managing to do damage with them. Granted, the damage was very small, but it was chipping away at the armor regardless, which forced Jade to go on the defensive.

Jade then got the idea to swap her sword and shield with a hammer instead, which she then used to hit George with, making him stumble backward.

George growled after getting hit by the hammer, "I'm finishing this now!" George snarled as he shot his tendrils straight at Jade…

Deena walked around the morgue, a room that looked like it hadn't been used in forever, as there was dust everywhere. Deena stopped walking when she saw Clover messing with an empty body bag.

"It's truly tragic isn't it?" Clover said as she zipped closed the body bag, "The people that go here have their lives cut short and can't feel the bliss of despair…" Clover turned over to Deena with an ear-to-ear smile, "But at least… you'll get to feel despair…" The exact second clover said that word, a blob of ink shot out of her mouth, alarming Deena.

The blob fell onto the floor and lifted itself up, it was a ball with four arms holding it together, and it had to widest smile and creepiest eyes you'd ever see, the creature, whose name was 'Lugosi', bolted straight towards Deena, who jumped over it instinctively, causing Lugosi to slam into a wall.

Deena, clenched her fist and ran over to Clover, easily overpowering the yaoi artist, before putting her arm behind her back and slamming her head onto the table, "How's this for despair?" Deena scowled as she pushed Clover's head onto the table.

Undeterred, Clover simply smiled and said, "It's not enough…" Deena looked over to her side and saw that Lugosi was back up and dashing towards her. Deena acted fast and jumped into the air, using her Glutton's Yearning to grab onto the lamp hanging from the ceiling with her teeth.

Deena got a better grip and the lamp and hung from it, while Lugosi jumped up to her, Deena swung herself from the lamp and landed on the ground, again barely dodging the ink monster. Clover watched all of this with amusement as Deena struggled to dodge Lugosi.

Clover giggled as she walked over to a body bag that had something inside of it, "I wonder what's in here?" Clover opened the body bag, stopped to stare at the item inside, and grabbed it, without Deena being able to see it.

"What did you just take?" Deena yelled as she ducked under Lugosi jumping at her, Deena then made a dash for Clover, but stopped in her tracks when she saw what Clover had taken… a pistol. "Y-you…" Deena tried to jump out of the pistol's line of fire but was shot through the shoulder by Clover. Deena screamed out in pain while her shoulder started to gush with blood.

"So it is real…" Clover smiled as Deena began to limp away, "I'll hold off on the despair for now…" Clover said as she made Lugosi disappear, "I want to give her a head start…" Clover laughed as she started to count, "...One…".

Deena struggled to not focus on the burning pain in her shoulder, she had to end this quickly or she was gonna pass out, she looked around the morgue for something to wrap her arm with but came up short. "...Seven…" Deena heard off on the other side of the morgue, luckily for her, Clover was out of sight, so she just need to get a sneak attack… which then gave her an idea…

"Thirty… ready or not… here I come!" Clover looked down at the floor, where Deena had unintentionally left a blood trail, "Looks like I've already found you!" Clover said in a sing-song voice while beginning to follow the blood trail. "I was kinda hoping you'd get some amazing plan to stop me from beating you… but whatever!" Clover smiled as she kept following the trail, which eventually led out to the freezer section of the morgue that was covered by a wall and doors.

Deena sat behind the door on the other end, clutching her shoulder wound and waiting for Clover to pop out so she could hit her. After a little while, Clover did walk into the room and was immediately met with a punch to the gut from Deena. Clover was caught off guard by Deena's surprise attack and stumbled backward, allowing Deena to get a few more punches in.

"Cr…" Clover grinned, "Crumble into despair!" Just like before, Clover saying 'despair' caused Lugosi to pop out of her mouth and this time, Deena was unable to dodge as the ink monster wrapped itself around her. "Got you… prepare to feel something far greater than you could ever understand!" Clover spread her arms wide.

"N….no…." Deena tried desperately to fight off the emotions being injected into her body, "...I…." Deena managed to get a grip on Lugosi, "..Can't lose now…!" Deena pulled Lugosi off of her and shoved the creature into her mouth, swallowing it whole. Deena now turned her attention to Clover, who was staring in complete shock.

"H…huh?" Clover's eyes widened as she tried to step back, only for Deena to bite down on her right hand that was holding the gun…. Severing it entirely. Clover let out a scream of agony as she held what used to be a hand, "This is…" Clover said as tears flowed down her cheeks, "Quite the setback… how marvelous!" Clover smiled as Deena spat out her hand and the now broken gun.

Deena then punched Clover straight in the face, knocking the girl onto the floor in just a single hit, "I know Salem can heal you so it's not permanent but… even I feel bad about doing this…"

"Heh… heheheh…. HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEH!" Clover began to cackle as Deena towered over her, "Did you really think you could eat your way out of despair?" Clover grinned ear to ear as Deena's eyes widened, "I just wanted to give you that little ounce of hope… JUST SO I COULD TAKE IT AWAY FROM YOU!" Suddenly, Lugosi emerged from Deena's mouth, unaffected by her power. The ink monster wrapped itself around Deena again and this time, successfully put her into a feeling of pure despair.

"Despair is the constant of this world…" Clover walked over to her severed hand and took the broken gun from its clutches, "And it's something you'll never change Deena…" Clover lifted the broken gun up and bashed Deena over the head with it, having no struggle due to Deena being unable to defend herself anymore. Deena passed out, either from her head injury or from her shoulder wound. Despite all of her planning… Clover had won…

Clover has won her fight!

Picollo, still shapeshifted as his friend Monstro, sat down in the recreational center. He figured he could easily beat some little skinny girl. "Where is she?" Picollo said to himself while raising an eyebrow.

What Picollo didn't notice, however, was that a barbell was flying up behind him and preparing to hit him straight in the head. The bar cocked back and was going to hit Picollo in the head, but he unknowingly dodged it by shapeshifting back into himself.

"Maybe I should just hide by the door to sneak attack her?" Picollo thought as the bar behind raised itself to hit him on top of his head, "I don't think Chris said anything against it." Picollo got up and walked forward, causing the bar to hit the ground with a loud clanging noise.

"Huh?" Picollo turned around and saw the bar, now placed on the ground, "Wait," Picollo pulled out his horn, "I knew this was a no-hold bars mat-" Suddenly, Picollo felt someone strangling him from behind and dropped his horn. Picollo looked down to see if it was Monica, but saw nothing, finding out that she was invisible.

"I…. go-… hand it to ya…." Picollo struggled to breathe because of his attacker, "You must really be stranging to hurt me!" Picollo picked up his horn and honked it, causing Monica to choke him harder.

Picollo looked up and saw that a bit of the ceiling was cracked and about to fall on both of them. "This luck sometimes comes in handy." Picollo thought to himself as he turned back into Monstro and elbowed Monica in what he assumed was her gut, it was more of her side but it did the trick.

Monica let go of Picollo in pain, and Picollo responded by holding his throat and kicking Monica where he thought her leg was, this time actually hitting his target. Picollo jumped away from Monica, who started to get up, but was brought to the ground when the piece of the ceiling that was cracked fell down and hit her straight in the shoulder.

"Oh yeah," Picollo held up his horn, "That rocked!" Picollo honked his horn, causing Monica to groan in annoyance. Picollo looked around the room for anything to use and stopped when he saw something, "Got you." He thought to himself as he ran over to one of the newly installed fire alarms. Picollo pulled the alarm, causing water to spray out from the sprinklers, which revealed where Monica was, "It's my turn now…"

Picollo transformed back into Monstro and gave a pretty heavy punch to Monica's face, he then without any hesitation kicked Monica in the leg and then turned back into himself as she fell to the ground. "Easy peasy lemon squeazy!" Picollo honked his horn before letting out a silent 'I hate my life.'

Monica was not amused by Picollo's constant jokes and regrabbed the barbell, knowing it was her only advantage, "Could you please take this seriously? This isn't a game." Monica rushed towards Picollo and tried to hit him with the bar, but he turned out to be more agile than she expected, as he dodged her attack with minimal effort and got a pretty good distance away from her.

"Focus Monica… wait for him to get cocky…" Monica thought to herself as Picollo again transformed back into Monstro, she raised her barbell and waited for him to approach.

Picollo stepped towards Monica and tried to disarm her, but she acted fast and jumped back, giving her the perfect opening to hit him straight in the leg with the bar, causing Picollo to let out a huge grunt of pain.

"Now it's my turn!" Monica slammed the bar onto Picollo's head, getting a pretty good hit on the clown in the process.

Picollo tried to kick Monica in the shin to free himself, but Monica made sure to dodge it and hit him in the arm this time.

"Yes… I can do this…" Monica spoke to herself as she hit Picollo, "I can win this and get out of here!" Picollo stepped backward, while Monica kept swinging the bar at him. "And you can't stop me!" Monica did an overhead swing towards Picollo, who simply caught the bar.

Picollo then pulled on the bar to bring Monica in close and then punched her when she got to him, releasing her grip on her weapon.

"You stupid child." Picollo growled at Monica, completely dropping the silly clown act, before kicking her in the gut and bringing her to the floor, "You really think you can win with that pep talk of yours?" Picollo glared at Monica before hitting her across the face with the bar, "You're a puppy among wolves here." Picollo hit Monica with the bar for a second time.

Monica coughed up a bit of blood as she struggled to keep going against Picollo, who wasn't letting up, "You never stood a chance." Monica tried to crawl away from Picollo as he slammed the bar onto her back, "You wanna know why? Because you're no criminal!" Picollo hit Monica in the back of the head, "And you're no fighter!" Picollo grabbed Monica and threw her to the wall, "You're just a little girl." Picollo hit Monica in the gut with the bar, causing her to cough hard.

Monica fell to the floor and panted hard as Picollo shapeshifted into her, "But by all means, get up and beat me with your little pep talk…" 'Monica' grinned, "I'll be waiting." 'Monica' then threw the bar away.

Monica panted and lifted herself up, "I…" Monica tried to keep herself going but her body was too damaged to move, so she just ended up falling to the floor.

"How pathetic." 'Monica' shook his head as he kicked Monica in the face, causing her to finally get knocked out. 'Monica' then transformed back into Picollo who stretched his arms out, "Now how am I gonna beat my next opponent?" Picollo asked himself as he left the area.

Picollo has won his fight!

Aztaroth sat still in one of the library's many swivel chairs while reading a copy of William Goldings 'Lord of The Flies". He sat and read through his book until he heard someone approaching him… or something. He heard the noise of claws scratching across the wall of the library.

An ominous laugh came from the other end of the room, along with the sound of somebody running on all fours. Unfazed by this, Aztaroth rolled his eyes and closed his book. "Are you going to properly behave yourself, or do I have to teach you some manners?" Aztaroth said as he gripped onto his book.

Edna, who now had very long and bloody claws, appeared from the shadows of the room, with bloodshot eyes and an ear-to-ear smile on her face, she seemed to be saying something, but her speech was too wild for Aztaroth to understand, with the only word he could make out being "Pain".

"Ugh," Aztaroth straightened up, "How revolting…" Aztaroth smirked, "So come on then… take your best shot…" Aztaroth cockily said.

With no hesitation whatsoever, Edna rushed over to Aztaroth and tried to stab him with her claws, but was stopped when Aztaroth held up his book and blocked the hit. Aztaroth, still in his chair, kicked Edna in the leg and pushed himself away with the chair's wheels. Aztaroth got out of his chair, removed his coat, and tossed it off onto a table.

"If you had some sort of a brain in there," Aztaroth looked over to Edna, who was tearing the book to shreds, "Maybe you'd actually be of my interest." Those words set Edna off, and she bolted off to go hit Aztaroth. "You act too much on impulse…" Aztaroth whispered to himself before pushing his chair over to Edna, tripping the sadomasochist up.

"Which means you leave many openings for me to take advantage of." Aztaroth thought to himself before picking up a nearby dictionary, he ran over to the knocked down Edna, opened the dictionary up, and closed it on Edna's face, causing her to laugh from the pain.

"That was fun! Do it again!" Edna grabbed the book from Aztaroth and shredded it, "Whoops! Edna got a little carried away!"

"You truly are vile…" Aztaroth put his hands behind his back as he dodged Edna's claws, but due to Edna's superior speed, she was actually getting scratches on him. "Agh," Aztaroth grabbed his bleeding arm, "You filthy curr!" Aztaroth snarled before kicking Edna in the head, which only made Edna laugh at his attempt, even though it was enhanced by Aztaroth's rage.

"That's not how you make someone red!" Edna cackled, "Let Edna show you!" Edna got up and stabbed Aztaroth straight in the arm, causing him to scream in pure agony. "You see? Edna knows how to hurt people!" Edna laughed.

"You bastard!" Aztaroth held his bleeding arm while Edna licked the blood off her claws. Edna then went for another claw swipe, this one tore through his shirt and left a huge mark across his chest.

"Augh!" Aztaroth stepped backward, "W-What the hell are you!?" Aztaroth's eyes widened in fear.

"A lunatic!" Edna clawed at her mouth as she responded, causing Aztaroth to back off in fear.

Aztaroth ran over to a nearby chair and picked up, before throwing it straight at Edna.

"Ohohoho!" Edna giggled before grabbing the chair out of the air, "Try again!" Edna threw the chair back at Aztaroth, causing a fair bit of blood to spill out from his head.

Aztaroth let out a loud snarl, "I'll make you regret that you bitch!" Aztaroth picked up a chair and threw it at Edna, who was now running away from him. "You can run…" Aztaroth mumbled, "It won't save you…" Aztaroth grabbed another chair and chucked it at Edna.

"Hahaha!" Edna jumped onto a nearby bookshelf to avoid the chairs, "Time to play!" Edna hopped across bookshelf to bookshelf, before stopping on top of one that was close to Aztaroth. Edna then jumped off the bookshelf and kicked it, causing it to fall straight onto Aztaroth.

After the dust from the fallen bookshelf cleared, everything was silent, and Aztaroth was nowhere to be seen.

"Why is my playmate hiding?" Edna glared at the fallen bookshelf, "Edna can hear you breathing!" Edna's voice echoed through the library.

"I have to… get away…" Aztaroth thought as he crawled from under the bookshelf, "She's inhuman!" Aztaroth coughed up a bit of blood as he crawled, but he completely tensed up when he heard Edna's footsteps coming closer. "Come on… The exit is right there." Aztaroth looked over at the exit of the library but stopped when he saw Edna jump in front of him.

"Hello!" Edna gave an ear-to-ear smile as she stabbed Aztaroth's hand with her claws, hurting him even more than he already was. "Why'd you run away?" Edna gave an upset look before stabbing Aztaroth through the stomach and lifting him, "We were having fun!" Edna threw Aztaroth to the floor.

"Oh well…" Edna began to scratch at Aztaroth's chest, "We can still play like this!" Edna dug her claws deeper into Aztaroth's chest.

"Stop…" Aztaroth gagged out, but Edna continued her slashing "Stop!" Aztaroth coughed out blood as he felt Edna completely impale him through his chest, causing him to cough out even more blood… "STOP!" Aztaroth pushed Edna off of him, completely ignoring the hole in him. Aztaroth let out a shout of pure rage as his body became surrounded with shadows, with only his newly glowing red eyes remaining visible.

"Oooh!" Edna clapped before trying to stab Aztaroth, "This is fu-" She stopped when she felt Aztaroth grab both of her arms, and without any thought whatsoever, Aztaroth snapped both of the arms in the opposite direction, breaking them instantly. "Huh?" Edna looked down at her dangling arms before looking back up at Aztaroth. When Edna looked at Aztaroth she no longer saw the gambler in front of her… no… she saw a blonde-haired man frowning at her, "B-brother King!?" Edna's claws and wild look completely vanished, instead being replaced by fear.

Aztaroth walked over to the terrified Edna and punched her through the bookshelves in the library, "Yes…" He snarled, "I AM KING!" Aztaroth pounced on Edna and began repeatedly punching her in the face, with the masochist unable to do anything as she was hit.

Aztaroth's punches were beginning to hit harder and more aggressively, as one would be able to feel the entire prison shaking from each hit on Edna's face. After two whole minutes of punching, Aztaroth finally calmed down and fell to the floor right next to his unconscious opponent. Edna looked awful, her face was purely just a bloody mess with teeth missing from her mouth, and she could only let out horrifying gagging noises.

"Y…You deserved that…" Aztaroth gagged out "You animal…"

Aztaroth has won his fight!

Rival and Romeo both looked out over the balcony of the watchtower, they both were nervous about fighting each other.

"Hey… there's no hard feelings after this… right?" Rival looked over at his opponent.

Romeo bit at his fingernails, "Ma and Pa would say there are… but… yeah… no hard feelings…" Romeo stepped back and prepared to fight the guitarist.

Confessional: Rival

"I've gotten into fights before… but I've never fought someone who I've just met…" Rival held his face in his hands, "But I still have to win this… I'm sorry Romeo…"

Confessional Over

The two waited a good minute to pump themselves up and become more confident about their battle.

"Y-you're going down…" Romeo gripped his fist, with its veins bulging because of Romeo's power, "City kid…"

"I'm not gonna lose to you," Rival formed a staff with his lightning and held it up, "I need to get out of here!"

Just like that, the two rushed towards each other for their fight. Before Rival reached Romeo, he stuck his staff into the floor of the watchtower, causing lightning to surge through the metal panels on the floor.

"Agh!" Romeo fell to the ground as he got shocked, "Damn it…." Romeo tried to get up, to no avail, "DAMN IT!" Romeo kept getting shocked by Rival's lightning, but something happened… Romeo's legs looked like they were growing and turned to this horrid purple-black color, with veins being visible through them, the legs of Romeo's jeans ripped, leaving him with a pair of shorts instead. Romeo got up from the electric attack and rushed straight towards Rival.

Rival responded to Romeo's attack by slamming his staff straight at the farmer… but Romeo… caught it!? Rival didn't notice this, due to Romeo getting up off the floor, but his arms were that same purple-black color. Electricity surged through Romeo's arm, but it had no effect.

"Ah… shit…" Rival stared wide-eyed at Romeo catching his staff before Romeo punched him so hard he flew off the watchtower… and flew back up into it by using Electricity as wings.

"I'm not going down that easily!" Rival created a bow with electricity and began to shoot arrows at Romeo, who tried to dodge but was too slow. Rival flew towards Romeo, and knocked him into a wall of the watchtower, causing parts of it to break off.

Romeo tried to counter with a punch to the side, but Rival managed to shock him and keep him stunned, "Sorry Romeo, but I have to win this!" Rival formed a hammer and hit Romeo in the face with it, launching the farmer through the wall and into the safety railing. Luckily for Romeo, he only dented the railing, or else he would have fallen to the ground.

"Damn it!" Romeo pushed himself forward and clotheslined Rival, causing Rival to hit the ground hard, "Got you!" Romeo slammed his fist onto Rival hitting him straight in the face.

Rival let out a yelp of pain before forming a guitar with his electricity and smacking Romeo across the face with it. "I just need something I'm more comfortable with…" Rival mumbled to himself as he played the guitar, with his feet forming electricity underneath them. "My life trapped in between…" Rival sang to himself as he charged at Romeo, using the guitar as a bat to hit Romeo with. "A whisper and a scream!" Rival then turned his guitar into a flail and smacked Romeo across the face with it.

Romeo stumbled backward from Rival's hit but decided to rush towards his opponent in anger. Rival tried to dodge Romeo charging at him but got stuck when Romeo grabbed him and ran straight towards the railing of the tower, causing both of them to break through it and start falling.

"Ah!" Rival tried to use his electricity to make Romeo let go of him, but Romeo had already hardened his body to be immune to the lightning, so all he could do was wince as he and Romeo fell.

"I'm finishing this now!" George snarled as he shot his tendrils straight at Jade… but they were cut off when both Romeo and Rival fell to the ground and caused a shockwave that sent both George and Jade stumbling back.

"Wait what?" Jade looked up to see that Romeo was on top of Rival and hitting him in the face.

"Where did you two come from…?" George looked over to see that Rival got hit by his tendrils when he hit the ground, "Hey! Let go!" George pulled his tendrils, but ended up pulling Rival with them as a result. "I said… let go!" George threw Rival to the wall, releasing him from the vines.

Rival flew towards the wall as a result of George's attack and dizzily managed to get up.

"Now where was I?" George turned over to the shocked Jade and prepared to shoot his tendrils at her, "Oh… right…" Before George could bring his tendrils out, he was hit by a blast from Rival, who was giving George payback for his attack.

"What's your problem?" Rival groaned as he rushed towards George with a new electric guitar.

Jade and Romeo both noticed the two starting to fight each other, "Now's my chance…" Jade noticed George distracted by his attack from Rival and rushed towards him to knock him out, but was launched away when Romeo ran over to her and punched her to the ground.

"What are you doing? I'm not your opponent!" Jade got up and held up her hammer so she could fight Romeo.

"Sorry… but I need to make friends somehow… and this may be a good way to get George on my good side." Romeo hardened his body.

Jade rushed towards Romeo with her hammer, but the farmer was able to effortlessly knock her away with a punch, cracking her armor.

"What…?" Jade held her armor, which felt like it was going to fall apart, she didn't have any time to worry about that, however, because Romeo rushed towards her and delivered another punch, causing Jade to fly off.

"Now to beat Rival…" Romeo cracked his neck and ran over to Rival, only to be hit in the back by a piece of Jade, "Huh?" Romeo turned around before being hit in the face by a crystal hammer.

"Then you brought this on yourself!" Jade punched Romeo in the gut, causing the farmer to kneel over, she then knocked him over the head with her hammer.

"Ugh!" Romeo kicked Jade in the shin and pushed her away, "I wouldn't make me angry if I were you…" Romeo snarled.

"Bring it." Jade rushed over to Romeo with her hammer and tried to hit him with it, but he simply grabbed it and punched her in the chest… completely shattering her armor.

"W-what!?" Jade stood in shock as her armor crumbled around her.

"I told you I wouldn't do that…" Romeo glared at Jade, before smacking her across the face and knocking her to the ground.

Rival dodged a tendril from George as he noticed Jade get knocked down, "Shit!" Rival let out as he saw Romeo running over. In order to avoid having a 2v1, Rival wrapped electricity around George's hands as a makeshift handcuff.

"Errr… Let me go!" George tried to free himself but was sent away when Rival made the handcuffs fly over to the wall, trapping the all-star, "Dammit! Put me down!" George yelled out, but was ignored by Rival.

"Well… looks like it's just you and me city-slicker…" Romeo grinned as he panted from his fight with Jade.

Rival was also worn a bit from his fight with George, even though it was a bit shorter than Romeo's, "Yeah… it is…"

"Not quite!" A voice came from behind Romeo, who turned around only to be hit in the face by a familiar crystal hammer, it was Jade back up and ready with another set of armor, "I know he's your opponent Rival, but I wanna get payback on this jerk!" Jade hit Romeo with her hammer again, causing him to stumble backward.

"Fine by me… I could use the help…" Rival panted as he formed his guitar, both Jade and Rival were now ready to fight Romeo.

"Fine… I'll fight you both…" Romeo coughed as he put his fists up and hardened his body.

The three stood there for a few seconds, waiting for someone to make a move. It eventually was Romeo who made the first move, by running towards the duo at full speed.

Jade and Rival both dodged Romeo's attack and began to hit him with their weapons, though Rival's wasn't doing much. Romeo tried to throw in a few punches to protect himself, but his more agile opponents were able to dodge them.

Romeo then tried to throw a punch towards Jade to knock her off balance, but Rival wrapped electricity around his neck and kept him down, giving both Rival and Jade an opening to attack Romeo from.

"That's…" Romeo let out as he choked, "Enough!" Romeo broke free of the electricity and managed to hit Rival with a good kick to the shin, causing the guitarist to fall over.

Jade tried to hit Romeo in the head with her hammer, but he simply caught it and elbowed her in the side, cracking her armor again. Romeo then picked Jade up and threw her away, before turning his attention to the now back up Rival.

Before Rival could do anything, he was met with Jade's crystal hammer to the face and Romeo's fist to his stomach. "You shouldn't have done that kid…" Romeo menacingly said as he slammed Jade's hammer onto Rival's head so hard, that it broke over him.

"Ah…" Rival's eyes widened as he started to feel himself slip out of consciousness, all he could do now was fall to the ground as Romeo hit him too hard for him to handle. That wasn't the worst of it either, as he heard a loud crack come from his right arm… it was broken…

Jade got up and tried to get Romeo with a newly formed sword, but Romeo grabbed that too and shattered it in his hand. "You shouldn't have done that either…" Romeo grabbed Jade by the neck and turned to face her, with only rage being seen on his face.

Jade gulped as she watched Romeo hit her so hard, her armor completely shattered for the second time, leaving her defenseless. Romeo let her go and she stumbled back… only for Romeo to hit her straight in the face over and over, causing her to feel numb everywhere. Romeo finished his beatdown of Jade by hitting her to the floor with a gut punch, leaving her bruised and bloodied.

Both Rival and Romeo panted heavily from the fatigue of their matches, but Rival still could barely get up while Romeo was already ready to finish him off, "Looks like the city has made you weak… kid's like you don't know anything about hard work…" Romeo towered over the exhausted Rival.

"That's because…" Rival barely managed to let out, "We learn better ways…" Rival made a motion with his hand, causing George to be released from his handcuffs and for them to catch Romeo by surprise. Romeo tried to harden his body, but Rival covered his hand in electricity and shoved it into Romeo's mouth, "I doubt you can harden the inside of your body…" Rival put all of his energy into shocking Romeo, causing electricity to fly out of the Farmer's mouth as he could do nothing to stop it.

Rival's attack worked, and Romeo slumped over, incapacitated by the electricity. Rival also fell over and panted, somewhat happy that he managed to pull through and win his fight, but he had felt more exhausted than ever before, so much so that he couldn't even get up to walk back to his cell, he was just stuck there… and now he had to watch George and Jade fight due to the rules of no intervention.

Jade rolled to her side and noticed George slowly walking towards her, taking his sweet time… "Ugh," Jade struggled to get up, but she managed and began to reform her armor.

"Not this time…" George shot a bit of tendril over Jade's eyes, causing her to stop forming her armor so she could try and remove it. George then shot more tendrils around Jade and crushed the little amount of armor she had. "Thanks for weakening her Romeo…" George grinned, "But I can handle this…" Jade gulped as George lifted her up.

George raised Jade into the air… and slammed her straight into the wall of the prison, he then dropped her and picked her up again… this time to slam her into the ground. "Not so fun now is it?" George cackled as he repeatedly threw Jade around like a ragdoll, before stopping after slamming her into the wall and ground of the courtyard a good twelve times. "Bye bye…" George waved to Jade, before throwing her into the opposite end of the prison, causing the wall she hit to crack from the force.

George shrugged, "Way too easy…"

Rival and George have both won their fights!

Salem and Chris sat in the warden's office, looking out onto the other side of the courtyard.

"It seems all of the fights are done… Abigor…" Salem reported to Chris, who was sitting in the warden's chair.

"Good…" Chris gave a menacing grin, "I trust you've healed them back to full strength?"

"Why of course…" Salem bowed, "Anything for a celebrity."

"Alright then… give them ten minutes to prepare themselves… then it's back to fighting."

"I like soldiers like you," Salem's eyes glowed, "You never give up on war…"
