2nd Match

Mikami vs. Sayu

In the beginning... There was a chess board. And after that, there was a checkers board. They may be the same thing, but we don't know that yet.

On either side of the blank room, two people entered. They both sat on the opposite sides of the board, the man being red and the girl being black.

"Welcome Mikami and Sayu to the second match of the first round!" Watari's voice came from the same laptop as before.

"Second match of what?" Sayu asked stupidly, oblivious to the checkers board in front of her.

"Uh.." Mikami started, "Checkers? What kind of game is checkers?" In his head he added, "a stupid one, that's what!"

"Ok, so Mikami, you're red and Sayu you're black. Black goes first, and whoever wins gets to move onto the next round!" Watari announced.

"Who really cares? It's just checkers..." Sayu stated, waiting for Mikami to make the first move.

They both played strategically, taking their time to plan every move perfectly.

Mikami jumped another one of Sayu's pieces, saying "Delete," under his breath.

"What was that?" Sayu looked at him weirdly.

"Nothing... Hey look! A distraction!" Mikami pointed over Sayu and she turned around to look. While she wasn't looking at the board, Mikami messed up the pieces so he'd win.

When she turned around again and looked at the board to make a move, she noticed that no matter what she would do, she was going to lose.

"Hey... No fair! You lied! There was no distraction!" Sayu complained.

"Yes there was, you just missed it." Mikami stuck his tongue out at her.

"That's not nice! I could have won!"

"You're just jealous because your brother likes me MORE then you!" Mikami laughed.

"How does he know you?" Sayu asked, moving her remaining piece, trying to stay in the game for just a bit longer.

"Because he's god! I mean... Uh... Look! Another distraction!" As she turned around to look again, Mikami jumped her last piece, muttered "Delete" again and ran out the door.

"Uh... Sure..." Sayu got up and walked out the door behind her.

----30 Minutes later----

"Ok you guys... You should almost be finished by now. It took Aizawa and Raito an hour to finish their match." Watari voice came from the laptop. "Hello? Sayu and Mikami?" He waited for a minute and sighed, "I guess that means Mikami won," just as the next two lucky competitors walked in.
