The Bar's commotion had died down to watch the standoff, even Sona had pulled her ambiance music to watch.
"Righ' lads!" a fairly inebriated Gragas intervened. "We're not supposed tah figh' 'ere, institute rules. But fuck it kill each other, haven't seen a good figh' in ages." He barely managed to articulate before he sighted an unguarded drink and started sneaking up on it before it ran away.
The four ninjas watched in state of bewildered confusion as the rabble rouser wandered off.
Returning to the matter at hand Shen spoke up
"I cannot let you leave unjudged, but Gragas raised an undeniable point. We cannot fight."
A second overweight patron interjected.
"Why, Ah do believe Ah have an answer to your conundrum, my friend." Tahm Kench stepped forward performing a low bow "That is if you don't mind my intrusion."
"Continue…" Akali said, skeptical of the known master manipulator.
"Why of course morsel, Ah have a tried and true method of solving disputes off of the Rift." His eyes gleamed insidiously.
"Do not talk aimlessly soul trapper. What is your suggestion?" Zed cut in.
"Very well. A battle of wits should suffice. Each of you," he pointed to the Kinkou order "get a verse to tear the master of shadows down. He then gets a chance to respond to each. The winner gets to enact their terms upon the loser or losers. Does this sound agreeable?" Shen couldn't see another way of punishing Zed right now.
"Very well, I suggest when we win, Zed must attend Karma's meditation tutorials and seek to balance in his life." Akali and Kennen voiced their approval. Zed snarled
"I Accept your terms, if you accept mine. When you lose you must take Syndra home when she finishes drinking. Every time." He received a shot glass to the back of the head from a pouting Syndra. Taking the dark sovereign away from where she could harm people was actually within Shen's interests of protecting balance. It was easy enough. He had much to learn.
"Deal."
"Well ladies and gentlemen, terms have been set let the battle commence. Sona can Ah get a slammin' Jam." Sona face palmed and threw her almost mint microphone to Tahm and span her turn tables up.
"Who wants first blood." Tahm grinned
"Oh me that's me I got it." Kennen scrambled over and swiped the mic out of the giant fish's hand. Kennen aligned himself with the beat and let loose.
"Kennen from the block like a bolt of lightning
my flow is fast and my lyrics are frightening
the fights just begun but'chu better concede
my wit's so sharp it'll make you bleed
I strike from the shadows like a bolt from the blue
gonna turn you to ash when I all in you
I trigger my passive with a surge of bolts
It'll hit you with the force of a billion volts
run when you hear the sound of thunder
the heart of the tempest will put you under
I hope you're ready for the rest of the slaughter
prepare to get destroyed by the Kinkou order."
Kennen threw the mic back to tahm to drink in the Audience's praise.
"My my, the yordle's thown out the gauntlet. It falls to Zed to counter." A shadow clone took the mic and sunk into the floor before reappearing next to Zed, handing him the mic.
Zed let out a sinister laugh.
"The merest shade of me is enough to beat you
ill kick your fucking ass with my shadow kung fu
So far above you contempt for the weak
I rhyme so dope it's forbidden technique
Ill cut through your order with deadly skill
give you burns so sick they'll make you ill
I'm the shadow master, I'm the king of the dark
you're already dead when you see my death mark
I can see that you're bluffing, stop acting so tough
I would cut you down but you're small enough
you make a nice pet, it's gotta be said
but you'll have to do better if you're gonna beat Zed."
The rowdier members of the crowd shouted their approval and jeered kennen who gave them the finger in response. Zed tossed the mic to Shen who caught it. Akali gently took the mic off him.
"No, let me." She span the mic and kicked off.
"The fist of the shadows here to shorten your lifespan
I'm the best fuckin slayer in the whole of valoran
I'm gonna put you down and I don't feel no guilt
make you feed so hard it'll put you on tilt
my damage is distressing on the mic and on the rift
I make my rhymes like my ult cause they flow so swift
make you bleed on my robes make'm red call me blood moon
I move through your motherfucking team like a typhoon
Bitch I'm so skilled you can't match my talents
when l cut you down I just keep the balance
when this battle's over don't hold a grudge
cause you're about to get schooled by the motherfucking judge."
She threw the mic back to zed and took a low bow. The crowd was in various stages of hype and inebriation by now. Vi let out a loud whoop and punched Caitlyn in the shoulder knocking her off her stool. Gangplank had personally had enough of all the fucking ninjas, and poured himself more rum.
Zed began his counter attack.
"I don't expect much but you still let me down
you're a part time ninja and a full time clown
can't rhyme against me I'm the shadow master
my shurikens are fast but my raps are faster
Balance is a lie, and I'm the true ninja
When I ult you my intent's not to injure
lane is repetitive it acts like a sedative
I hope you enjoy it when your K/D's in the negative
you made a mistake I shoulda been your first ban
dominate your lane don't fuck with the shadow clan
your lackeys are pathetic and I won't ask again
you must fight me now so challenge me Shen."
The crowd was getting rowdier by the verse. There wasn't much to do when not on the rift other than socialize so almost all of the champions had turned up by this point and the atmosphere was exploding. Shen dashed to zed and stood inches from him as he took the mic off him returning back to his side of the battle line. The air began to hum as he synchronized his ki with the music.
"Its time to crank up the beat and fucking drop the bass
the head ninja's here to rearrange your fucking face
I'm gonna shred your health with my twilight assault
gonna taunt make you mad I'll fucking turn you into salt
I got bars so fat you can't handle my rhyme
Then I take no damage cause my tank is a Crime
bitch when I tower dive I don't need luck
I just tell the tower that I don't give a fuck
try to rhyme against us then we stand united
superior judgement against the shortsighted
when I come from the jungle you're an easy gank
you're built like a bitch I'm a motherfucking tank."
Shen fist bumped Kennen and hi fived Akali. The crowd had formed a ring around the four ninjas at this point and yelled cheered for Shen. Tahm stepped forward and took the mic off Shen
"Now settle down y'all. Zed has his last verse. Take it from here." Tahm handed zed the mic and stepped back into the ring
I hope you've said your prayers and I hope you've made your peace
cause I'm about to crush you harder than I'm crushing these beats
so sit the fuck down and grab some motherfucking tissues
cause I'm about to bring up your old daddy issues
so you picked up his title and his shitty little sword
after I took over your temple that's all you could afford
but then Jhin escaped so what did he really do?
his failure is complete and that includes you
you try to act important but no one really cares
we know you're compensating for your downstairs
me defeating you, it ends how it begins
so kneel motherfucker, forbidden shadow wins.
Everyone went crazy. Vi punched Caitlyn off her stool again. Draven started chanting Draven. Olaf crushed his beer can with his head. The crowd whooped and cheered before tahm kench settled them down.
"Ah'm gonna need a show of hands to determine the victor of this bout."

A/N: man you really run out of rhymes when you have to rhyme for 4 ninjas. I took this one much more seriously in regards to quality than the last one because it got followers and I totally wasn't expecting that. I'm really trying to make these as unbiased as I can. I tried really really hard. This took a lot longer cause its much bigger. Again tell me who you think won, any suggestions and I appreciate any comments you have to make, thanks again :D
