The crowd was roaring as Team ANIM (Ant, Natsu, Ichigo and Marcus) of Beacon went to fight Team MATE (Takeshi, Emerald, Adam and Mercury) of Haven, "Today is Team ANIM vs Team MATE, begin" Oobleck shouted from the box, the field changed to Ice, Volcanoes, Beach and jungle, Ant ran at Takeshi with his fist raised, Takeshi pulled a metal rod off of his back and blocks the older teens fist with it, Ichigo and Adam had ran at each other and where clashing in a battle of swords which seemed fairly even, Marcus ran at Mercury and punched him as he kicked back, Natsu was watching Emerald carefully as different illusions started to form around him, he blocked a strike by catching her foot in mid-air "You can't fool a dragon's senses, Fire Dragons ROAR" the stream of fire hit Emerald straight in the face and sent her flying out of the arena "Oh and it looks like miss Emerald has been taken out". Marcus and Mercury will still duking it out a punch then a kick until Marcus finally had enough, "Fire Devil's Rage" the giant beam of fire scored a lucky hit to Mercury's head reducing his aura to zero "And now Mister Mercury has been taken out of the picture" Natsu and Marcus nodded at each other before running towards their friends, Marcus went to Ant and Natsu went to Ichigo.
Ichigo and Adam slashed their swords against one another until Natsu barged in "Fire Dragons Sword HORN" Natsu was clocked in fire and speared Adam in the stomach causing Adam to double over and lose consciousness "Looks like Adam is down for the count" the two smiled at each other before fist bumping and going to help their team mates, when Natsu and Ichigo got to their team Marcus had been knocked unconscious and Ant and Takeshi were matching each other blow for blow Natsu lunged at him "Fire Dragons Iron Fist" Takeshi moved his rod into the attacked and Natsu was sent flying by what seemed to be lightning dust, "and Natsu has gone up in smoke" Ichigo ran at him with his sword and slashed down on the boy who had raised his rod to collide with the sword, the two objects met in the middle and deflected each other before Takeshi's rod transformed into Ichigo's sword, 'so not only is it infused with dust, it can transform into any weapon that makes contact with it' Ichigo and Takeshi had a sword slash battle for about two minutes until Ichigo was sent flying into the barrier from what seemed to be a dust wave "and Ichigo is done and out, this is now a one-on-one battle between Ant and Takeshi" Ant rushed Takeshi and narrowly avoided his sword before punching him in the gut knocking him back slightly. Takeshi stared him straight in the eye before charging, he was fast, so fast that to the naked eye he would have been a blur but to Ant and Ruby he was just running really fast towards Ant with the sword ready to be slashed, Ant jumped at the last second and only barely avoided losing his ears Ant growled and opened his mouth "Dark Dragon ROAR" the stream of darkness shot at Takeshi making him use the blade to block the attack, the blade and blast collided cause the blade to fly from Takeshi's hands. Takeshi looked at his weapon to see it now a staff again "It seems my attack reacted to the dust in your weapon causing it to return to its former shape" Ant de-deuced and Takeshi glared at him. The two combatants charged at each other and started using every fighting style they knew to try to remove the others aura, after a few minutes of fighting Ant got bored "sorry bud" he held his arm in front of him and pointed at Takeshi "Oh river of light that is guided by Fairies" his arm started glowing golden "shine your light so I may vanquish all evils, Fairy Glitter" A circle of energy surrounded Takeshi and closed in on him, it drained him of his aura then he dispersed the attack "and Takeshi loses due aura depletion, Team ANIM wins".
