In the stadium
No one's POV:
Chrono walked into the arena with a devilish grin plastered on his face. He walked forward in bloodlust looking as if he was searching for a victim. "Hey, there you are Chrono. We've been looking everywhere for you" Chrono glanced over to the side to see Flash and Ace running towards him, Flash looking ticked off.
"Where were you, we were seriously worried about you!" Flash yelled out angrily. Chrono just smiled at him.
"Don't worry, there's nothing to worry about" Chrono said in a monotone yet mildly sinister tone. Both Flash and Ace jumped back in shock.
A few moments later, Flash replied "Woah, you're actually talking now". Chrono just gave him a nod. Flash was thoroughly surprised while Ace stayed silent but gave Chrono an unsettling look.
"Is there something wrong, Ace" Chrono asked in the same tone. Ace snapped out of his gaze. "Oh um, no. I was just a little surprised… that's all".
Chrono smirked before turning around. "Well, we should get going. You guys wouldn't want to be late for the battle would you" The two just shook their heads. "Thought so" He said and walked over to the arena without looking back.
Once Chrono was out of sight, Ace and Flash glanced at each other. "Hey Ace, is it just me or does Chrono sound a lot more sinister than I thought" Ace shook his head.
"No, it's not just you" He looked with uncertainty in his eyes. "Let's just continue with the tournament and we'll keep an eye on him as well" Flash nodded.
"Alright then, good luck in your battle" Flash patted the electric mouse on the back.
"You too" Ace replied as the two moved to their allocated positions.
Flash's POV
I walked over to my designated area to prepare for the battle. I turned to see Ace doing the same. I smiled as I continued walking. "So, you are my opponent" I heard to the side of me. I turned to see a Roserade smirking at me. "I hope you put up a better fight then the last one. He was so pathetic" I felt something snap in me as I glared at my opponent.
"You were talking about my friend just now, and I won't let you just trash talk him" I yelled angrily at the Roserade who stayed smirking.
"Do not blame me for beating your friend so easily" She replied to which I could feel my anger start to surface. "He should not have even joined this tournament in the first place, honestly".
Before I could speak I heard the announcer cry out. "Now that all the participants are in position, we shall begin the second round, let the battle begin!"
I stared cruelly at the Roserade who was standing there, gesturing me to attack. "Come on, little one. Show me what you can do"
I started charging up a Water Pulse while speaking. "Your name's Thorn, right" I asked which I received a nod. "Well, the name's Flash and I'll make you pay for everything you said" I launched myself into the air firing the Water Pulse.
Ace's POV
"I'll make you pay for everything you said" is what I heard as the battle started. I instantly recognised it as Flash's voice and already was I worried about what was happening. "Cross Chop" my opponent yelled out running at me slamming his arms at me. Out of instinct, I jumped up and over the Machamp's and retaliated. "Thunderbolt" I yelled at launching my electric attack striking the Machamp's back. He turned around with all four fists engulfed with flames. "Fire Punch" He yelled out aiming his attack for my head.
I ducked under his attack before sliding under him and jumped above his head. "Iron Tail" I yelled out. My tail glowed silver as my attack collided with his head. He stumbled back before gaining his balance. He cracked his knuckles showing he was far from done.
I proceeded to prepare another Thunderbolt in my cheek. Worry still filled my mind. "Good luck, you two" I thought to myself before charging back into battle.
No One's POV
Luxray stood ready baring his fangs towards Chrono, preparing to strike. Chrono, on the other hand, smiled and watched the Luxray making his move, with no signs of any attempt of making his own. Luxray charged at blinding speed towards Chrono, his fangs flashed with lightning. "Thunder Fang" He cried out aiming for Chrono's neck. Chrono only smirked as he moved, at the last second, out of the Luxray's range. Then with a quick turn, Chrono kicked the Luxray in the head, forcing him to recoil back a few meters. The Luxray growled intimidatingly to which Chrono chuckled in response.
"What's so funny" He growled at Chrono menacingly. Chrono slowly opened his eyes and grinned. "I just haven't been in combat for so long, now" His face turned dark and his harmless expression twisted into a heartless gaze. "I haven't seen bloodshed for quite some time now, I shall relinquish this opportunity"
Chrono charged toward the Luxray, charging up a Dark Pulse. The Luxray jumped towards Chrono his fangs lit by lightning once more. "Thunder Fang" He cried out before snapping at the dark type. Chrono ducked underneath his attack and launched his own. Luxray took the attack head on before landing on the floor. "Thunderbolt". Luxray sent out a bolt of electricity directly at Chrono in an attempt to crush him. But the attack was to no avail as Chrono sidestepped the attack before launching another Dark Pulse. This time Luxray leapt over the attack and charged up his Thunder Fang once more. This time he lunged for the leg and hit his target.
Chrono winced at the sudden attack. He felt himself being thrown into the air. "Thunderbolt" Luxray cried out launching another bolt of lightning. Chrono responded with a Dark Pulse which cancelling the attack out. Chrono landed back on his feet while the Luxray growled in frustration. "Is that all you're capable off" Chrono taunted frustrating the Luxray even more.
Blue spark flew out of the Luxray's cheek. "Try to dodge this, Discharge!" Blue lightning shot out in all directions all around the arena. Chrono as smirked as he weaved through the attack sidestepping the incoming lightning bolts with ease. He jumped into the air dodging more bolts and landed behind the surprised Luxray. "That the best you've got to offer" Chrono fired a Dark Pulse hitting the Luxray at point blank range. The Luxray was sent flying and crashed into the wall.
"I've had enough of you" Luxray yelled in fury. "I'm going to crush you, Wild Charge!" The Luxray engulfed itself in electricity and rushed towards Chrono. Chrono however made no attempt to dodge the incoming assault. In fact, he smirked with glee watching the attack approach him. The attack collided causing a giant explosion to erupt.
Flash's POV
I ran towards Thorn forging a blade between my hands. "Cut" I yelled out swinging my blade. It had little effect on the Roserade as she leapt into the air. "Shadow Ball" She cried out hurling a ball on darkness. I hopped back to avoid the attack before leaping back towards the Roserade. I formed the blade again and brought it down on her head. "Cut" I exclaimed as my attack collided and sent her crashing into the ground. She stumbled to get up as I landed opposite her. "You're not too bad, if only your friend was this good. Then again your kind of weak yourself" she said mockingly. I ran at her in blind fury, my blade ready to cut her down. She gave a smirk as her flowers glowed green. "Giga Drain" She yelled out.
I continued to charge forward only to feel vines stretching out from underneath me. They wrapped around my arms and legs and propelled me into the air. I started to feel my energy being sapped away. I struggled from my grassy prison but it had little effect. I could see in the corner of my eye the Roserade slowly getting up and looking more energised. She smirked at me. "I guess this is the end then, you've lost". The words hit me harder than any attack I've received. "I guess you couldn't get revenge for your friend. You just weren't strong enough" I winced at those words, as I felt myself slowly lose conscious. "Let's end this" I heard before seeing the Roserade above me. "Shadow Ball" She yelled out before launching the attack at me. The moment the attack hit I felt a sting of pain before blacking out.
No One's POV
The Luxray stood battered and bruised looking into the field of dust for any sign of his opponent. As the dust cleared the battlefield was empty. His eyes widen as he turned and searched for the Umbreon.
"Over here" He heard a sinister voice to the side of him. He turned to be struck by a dark pulse. It was different however as the dark pulse were radiating a crimson glow. The Luxray turned to where the attack was fired only to have the attack strike from behind. The assault went on endlessly and from every direction. "Discharge" He fired blue lightning in all directions to cancel out the attacks. But to no avail the attack pierced through his lightning before hitting the Luxray. A few moments later he fell to the ground, defeated. Chrono appeared in front of him another Dark Pulse being charged up. "It's time" He whispered and readied to launch his attack.
?'s POV
I readied my final blow before all of a sudden a slight jolt of pain ran to my head. My attack disintegrated and I clutched my head in pain. "Enough" I heard in my head, as I could feel myself losing control of the body. I cursed myself for underestimating my other self before losing full control and warping back to the dark abyss of my other's mind
