-Wins and Losses-
"Knives… Knives… Run… Go Away… Danger… Friends…" Knives again fall off the bed; nevertheless this time he didn't scream… this time there was a message, in which his friends were involved, he must go to find them. Knives was running down the town square, dogging people at every cost, when he finally arrived at the Smash down arena, "Lee, Serenity, and Knox!! Where are you guys?" "Look who has finally arrived at time" Knives turned quickly and there standing were his friends not even a hair out of its place, what a fool, doing this entire problem just for a stupid nightmare, really. "Ladies and gentlemen…" then everybody became silent and still, it was like the time had frozen, Knives turn around, everything was frozen, then in the crowd he see it, silver and human-like, nevertheless it wasn't a human, it is… "a Nobody…" Knives turn to see who had talked but only he turned time started to run again "…to the X Smashdown contest here in Destiny Islands, well with anything to say, let the fights begin" a roar of applauses, then "I am first, wish me luck" Lee said, then a rather round boy step in the arena, he changed "never mind it, I will win easily" then he stepped into the arena, looked directly to his opponent with a maleficent grin "Lee Watson using his halberd Fang, in the first round and Jason Peeves using a weapon of his invention, The Bladerang, contestants, begin!" the battle lasted by far a min, Lee striked Jason quickly and without any remorse, in less than a minute Jason was in the floor his bladerang in the floor and Lee's halberd in this neck "The winner, Lee Watson" the locutor yelled. Lee stepped out of the arena calmly "See, no problem" Knives smiled happily, then look out for Jason and watch a dark mist pouring out of him, he blink once and then mist disappear "Second round! Knox Norc using his nun shakos versus…" "Wow it is my turn already, who will be my opponent?" "…Serenity Cage using her katana Lotus" Knox and Serenity looked at each other, they have already know they will may fight each other, all of them know this, nevertheless they never think it would happen so fast…
Knox and Serenity were facing each other directly, they don't wanted the other to lose, but they don't want to lose either. The fight start, it was a little pause, silent and tension, then Serenity attack, her style was very samurai-like delicate movements with amazing results, Knox was blocking with difficulty every hit, after 15 minutes more o less of Serenity attacking ruthlessly, Knox make his first offensive movement making several complicated movements with his nun shakos, then suddenly he imprison Serenity's katana with the rope connecting the shakos "Do you think my nun shakos were common ones? Never, they are equipped with several artefacts of my invention, see?" then with a quick reverse Serenity free herself "I wont be easy" "I know that sis" then pressing a nun shako one tip became knife like. Their real battle then began, they attack and defend, after 30 minutes or so, both were tired, none of them were seeing to give up, or doing mistakes, suddenly, Knox made the first mistake, he make his nun shako spin and then propel itself and get tied to Lotus, Serenity then quickly pull Lotus, taking the nun shako from Knox, he tried desperately to get his weapon back, getting his other nun shako stole "Knox, I am so sorry, really" Knox nodded and smiled "The best win at last" then he bend in a small bow "The winner of the second round. Serenity Cage" There was a roar of applauses, and cheers.
Serenity and Knox walked down the arena looking happy with themselves, Lee and Knives run to encounter them and congratulated them for their fight, then "Third Round, Knives Key using a weapon of his invention, let me see, The Beasts' Claws (please forgive me for the name, I didn't know there was already a weapon named like this, I found about it recently, sorry again) versus Axel Rogue, our champion, using his good and old broadsword…" there was a general murmur "the champion, poor boy" "first time and against the champ, he is lost" Axel was walking obliviously to the arena, Knives blinked to his friends and walked carelessly following him, then he stepped in the opposite of the field and bowed "start" Axel then turn off his sword and said "this is your first time, right? I will let you make the first movement…" Knives smiled, then run incredibly fast at him, and then, he was gone "over here" Axel turned to his back and there he was, but before he could do anything Knives give him a very hard kick, knocking him off balance, then he start an intense rain of slashes, each one of them even stronger than the one before. Then, he fell, there, the champion, lying in the floor, there was a silence that seem to last forever and then, a roar of cheers, whistles and screams, Knives was very happy with himself, then he bended to give Axel a hand, he looked at him with anger and slapped Knives' hand with anger, then he stand up and walk away, he looked really furious, indeed.
Well, what to do…
