"So, that's what happened while you were gone."
Dan and Jessica stand in the hallway, Dan now wearing a tight black shirt, jeans, and sunglasses, while Jessica wore a leather jacket, black long-sleeved shirt, and jeans. He had just finished explaining to her what had happened while she was changing.
As he said that, Q walked out of the room, seeing that his comrades were much less dressed than he was, and sighed.
"Well, what can I do?"
He mumbled to himself before addressing his love and their teammate.
"We're going to announce the tournament in four days. We each have about 13 letters: 10 of them have specific addresses, and 3 of them are empty: you can pick whoever you want to give them to."
Dan smirked evilly as Jessica smiled warmly. They thanked him in unison, and the three of them grabbed their bags; Dan had a backpack, Jessica had a rolling suitcase, and Q had a normal suitcase; and stepped through a portal…
"Oh, I do have something to thank you for."
"And what's that?"
"That little 'Piece of Heaven.' See ya later, darling!"
"Piece of heaven. What's that?"
"Hehehe! That's a secret."
Dan's first chosen location was a boat, currently sailing the seas next to another boat which has just exploded. A man and a woman had just finished having a conversation, and the man was walking away. Dan saw this as the perfect chance to make an offer nobody could refuse…
Q's voice rang in Dan's head.
"Remember, these letters contain three things. A letter of invitation, a sign-up sheet confirming the team, and a button that is only to be pushed two days before the tournament. They transport the team chosen to a designated area off of the main arena, and give them enough funds to get a room in a nearby hotel."
Dan nodded his head and walked up to the young lady.
"Hello there. I've been sent to give you this."
The young woman looked up to see Dan giving her a letter.
"Huh. What's this for?"
"You've been invited to a tournament. Arrange a team of three, and press the button in that envelope two days before the tournament."
"When will that be?"
"If there's not info on the invitation itself, then in about four days, we're putting out a commercial for it three times a day on numerous channels until it arrives."
"Okay. Thank you!"
"Of course. I'll see you soon…"
And with that, Dan walked into the portal and disappeared into the multiverse…
I hope this one was better than the last. Leave a review, and also leave suggestions for what teams you want to see! Don't worry, KOF characters will appear, and a good number of them too, but I want to get the outliers out of the way. I hope you liked this chapter, and I'll see you next time!
