"The Stage is Set for what should be a climatic Sudden Death Battle between Jexi the Hunter, and the Destructive Dragonman, Drake! I hope you people have life insurance, because when these two go all out, nothing's gonna stand after one of them falls!" Paruko said.
"Do not waste time with the introduction. Start the battle." Drake said.
"I agree. No reason to keep everyone waiting for much longer." Jexi said.
"Oh...okay. Let the fight….begin." Paruko said as the stadium quaked as the two of them were already going at each other fist to fist as they rushed all across the stadium.
"Clear out people, these guys mean business!" Hope said.
"Dragon's Fist!" Drake shouted
"Ultimate Color Fist!" Jexi shouted as their attacks collided, sending out a powerful shockwave that ripped the stands apart.
"Aw, jeez… Hasn't this place been wrecked enough?!" David asked.
"Dragon's Talon!" Drake shouted.
"Ultimate Color Kick!" Jexi shouted as their kicks were even colliding with one another before Jexi got close. "Ultimate Color...Kick Cannon!" he shouted kicking Drake in the stomach as he coughed blood but quickly recovered.
"What a wild match! And I'm getting every minute of it on film and broadcasting it to the temple and all over the worlds! People are loving every second of this fight and the last ones, check it out!" Paruko said.
Takosuke managed to show some screens of cheering fans in the Temple, either for Jexi or Drake to win as Rain Bow and the 4 high masters just silently watched.
"Paruko's right, this is awesome!" Hope said.
"Dragon's Claw!" Drake shouted scratching Jexi.
"Ultimate Color Lariat!" Jexi shouted doing a Lariat on Drake.
The fight continued as neither fighter were not giving an inch to the other as they both tried to keep from falling to the other.
"Neither of them are backing down, trying to make the other fall down for good, and making the Temple electric!" Hope said.
"Come on Jexi, you can do this! Use Golden God Mode and Pulverize him!" Rainbow said.
"Nah. That would be overkill." David said.
"Ultimate Color Cannon!" Jexi shouted.
"Dragon's Scales!" Drake shouted as the attack did nothing to him.
"Come on buddy, hit him good!" Hope said.
"Ultimate Color Fighting Secret Art! Dragon Destruction Cannon!" Drake shouted as he fired a blast of dragonic power at Jexi, sending him crashing into the arena as it was breaking apart. After it subsided, Jexi was barely standing as Drake flew high above him.
"He barely stood up to that attack." Blade said.
"Jexi, you have always been a good fighter since our battle in Hyrule. So, I have decided. If you can survive this next attack and still stand...it's my loss." Drake said.
"Can he? He barely has any energy left." David said.
"You...have a deal." Jexi said smiling.
"Very well. Here it comes!" Drake said gathering power. "Ultimate Color Fighting Elite Art! Great Dragon's Raging Spirit!" he shouted a spirit like dragon appeared behind him as he fell towards Jexi.
"JEXI!" Hope said as the dragon exploded onto him as everyone covered their eyes.
"Oh my GOD! The impact of that Elite art made the ring crumble!" Scott said eyeing the destroyed ring, which was in pieces.
"What about Jexi, is he okay?" Sunset asked.
"I-I hope so…" Fluttershy said worriedly.
"Hmm. This is such a shame." Drake said as he was about to turn and leave. But before he could, he heard a small rumbling as something rose from the rubble. This was Jexi as he stood there, charred, beaten, bruised and holding on to life.
"I'm….still….standing." Jexi panted.
Drake was surprised by this before he started laughing. "Now there is an interesting one you do not see everyday." Drake said. "A promise is a promise." he said landing outside of the destroyed ring.
"It's official… Jexi is literally built like a brick wall." David said.
Jexi was smiling as he fell over and was sleeping soundly.
"He's out." Hope said in shock before smiling. "Sleep well, bud. You earned it."
"He has won and fought well. Don't think I've forgotten my side of our arrangement. He will receive the points he needs from me. He can now return for the final trial." Drake said.
"That means, we can all finally move on. To the final test." Celti said.
"No doubt Volt is already there after our escapade in Dreamland." David said.
"Then it'll be quite the battle we're about to get ourselves into." Ramona said. "Are we all even allowed to enter the Battle Royal with Hope and Jexi?"
"It only applies to color fighters. If anyone entered, then it wouldn't be considered a test for us." Celti said.
"Figured as much." David said.
"But now, the stage is set. I've conquered the odds and now I'm gonna win the Battle Royal, and become one of the new High Masters." Hope said. "And I'll make sure you're with me when we come down to 4, Cel."
"I'm holding you to it." Celti said. "But we should wait for Jexi to recover before we return. He needs to be at his peak."
"Right. 2 days should do it." Hope said.
"Yeah. Let's get on going! Let's slowly make way to the final fight!" Natsu said.
And so, the three groups took off and were waiting for two days for Jexi to recover.
Meanwhile with Flux…
"Ugh. I can't believe I lost again to that bothersome Jexi. Even when I play the good card. Can things get worse?" Flux said before he heard a gun cock.
"Oh...I believe it is." a figure said walking out of the shadows.
"Wait, your face. I know you. You're that criminal. Your...Lucius." Flux said in terror.
"Ah, so you do know me? Good, then this will save time." Lucius said.
"What...what do you want?" Flux asked.
"Hearts of course. Look, the armor boy, Alphonse Elric, you hid a tracking chip inside him since he has been traveling with the Dimensional Heroes." Lucius said.
"How do you…" Flux said.
"I'm no idiot. I saw that grotesque death match that has been banned. Now, here's what's gonna happen. You're gonna follow them in cloak mode to the temple. Refuse, and I slaughter everyone on this ship. We understand?" Lucius asked.
"I understand…" Flux said.
"And if you think of pulling a gun on me, I'm pulling the trigger." Lucius said.
"Dang it." Flux said getting into the pilot seat and driving off as Lucius was laughing.
"Yes. Yes! I've waited a long time and devoured a lot of hearts, but now...I can finally claim my revenge!" Lucius said smiling evilly.
To be concluded….
