Alright here is chapter 7, with a new episode on the horizon for non sponsors. And WOW is it a good one. Now I think I'm going to include the Lucien vs Yaron fight. Let's begin. I own nothing except my ideas and OC's.
Ash hummed as he watched Penny flawlessly defeat the two members of CRDL. He noticed how her teammate seemed to time her, as if they have somewhere else to be. Ash saw Ruby get up and beeline off, obviously to congratulate her, Ash got up and followed her.
"Penny"! Ruby cheers.
"Ruby"! Penny says before tackling the girl to the ground, electing a 'why?' of pain from Ruby.
Ash yanked Ruby out of Penny's tight grip, only for the ginger to hug him. "It's good to see you too Ash". Penny says with a smile.
"Same". Ash agrees.
Penny smiled and turned to Ruby, the two conversing.
Ash stared off into space as he thought of the competition, Penny is a powerful fighter, and he's curious what the girl with her can do, sadly he wouldn't get the chance to try.
"The next fight will begin in 15 minutes"! Port's voice carries.
"That's Yang and Weiss"! Ruby cheers before yanking Ash away.
Yang and Weiss were talking amongst themselves as the others waited.
"So, who do you think their opponents will be like"? George asks.
"They're from Atlas, most likely military like people, good weapons and strateg-"
Ryan was cut off as a girl zipped past Yang and Weiss, stopping in front of them along with a male with a trumpet.
"Hey! Your Weiss Schnee, the heiress"? The male asks, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
"I am". Weiss answers.
"You must be pretty good with Dust then huh"? He asks again.
"I do my best". Weiss answers with a shrug.
"Yeah, my Dad had a little old dust shop, until your Father's company ran him out of business". He finishes, a bite in his voice.
"Oh...I'm sorry to hear that". Weiss apologizes.
"Sure you are". The male says sarcastically.
"Hey why don't you-" "Hey why don't you"! The girl cuts Yang's statement off.
"That's what you sound like". She says, pointing at Yang.
Yang stared at her blankly.
"Hey! Where did you get your hair extensions"? She asks while pointing to Yang's hair.
"This is just my normal hair". Yang answers.
The girl lets out a condescending noise. "Really"? She asks.
"Yeah, is that a prob-" "You should try rollerblading sometimes, its super fun"! The girl interrupts again. "But it might take you a while since your so...top heavy". She says with a shrug.
Let the records show that George does not have a temper, but to anyone that had the gall to insult his girlfriend.
WHAM!
"Holy-" Ryan exclaims while holding onto the railing as George slammed his fist onto the rails, causing the arena to shake briefly.
Yang looked down at her chest in shock and confusion. "Excuse me"?
"Oh, here we go". Ruby says with a sigh, ignoring the raging Armstrong.
The arena got set into place as the countdown began. The places were fire, the desert, the city, and the hot spring.
George watched as his hands gripped the rails, denting them as if they were paper.
The man blew his trumpet, which assaulted the two with soundwaves, allowing the girl to knock Yang back and for Weiss to face the man.
"Whoa, that's something". Aria mutters in awe.
The man blew the trumpet again, this time Weiss increased her weight and slowly stepped forward, only for the man to stop, the sudden pressure causing Weiss to stumble forward, opening her to a kick, knocking her into the fire zone.
Yang opened fire on the girl, who kept sliding out of the way, a rainbow trail following her.
Ash picked up a mantra she kept saying. "Never miss a beat". She kept muttering.
She zipped around and smacked Yang with her nunchucks multiple times, before cracking them like glowsticks, infusing ice dust into them, before smacking Yang's leg, freezing it.
"Hey look, now your bottom heavy too"! She taunts, smacking her own rear for emphasis.
WHAM!
"George stop that"! Ryan says while holding onto the railing again.
Yang crushed the ice with a stomp, before the girl smacked her arm, freezing it. The girl zipped through multiple arches before charging forward, knocking Yang into a wall.
"You should cool off, get it...because your angry". She taunts.
WHAM!
"George"! Ryan snaps.
"Not me that time"! George defends, pointing to Yang who just destroyed a wall.
Weiss and the man faced off, with Weiss flinging multiple ice shards at him, only for the man to kneel and blow fire at them, melting them.
"Too bad all that money can't buy you skill". He mocks.
Ryan gripped the railing, only successful in turning his knuckles white.
Weiss huffs before shifting her rapier dust and shooting Wind out of the tip, countering the shockwaves. Weiss smirked and summoned various glyphs around the man, before continuously attacking him, ricocheting off of the glyphs.
The man took a firm stance before splitting into four and blowing at a spot, all of the shockwaves combined knocking Weiss back.
"Whoa". Jaune mutters in awe from beside them.
"What's this"? Port asks in surprise.
"It seems Flint Coal has just activated his Semblance, and quite a remarkable one at that". Oobleck answers.
All four of the Flint's tip their hats.
"Ladies and Gentleman, prepare yourselves for Flint Cole's killer quartet"! Oobleck announces.
All four of the Flint's returned to one, with the blue one looking at Weiss' Aura meter, before walking to her location with a smirk.
The girl zipped around while Yang followed in pursuit.
"Wow, flashy eyes, you know your really pretty when your angry". The girl mocks Yang's red eyes.
"Shut up, shut up, shut up"! Yang shouts before charging.
Flint stepped on Weiss' rapier, preventing her from attacking.
"Get back here"! Yang shouts.
"I'm not saying you SHOULD, go on a diet, I'm saying you NEED to go on a diet"!
WHAM!
Ryan wasn't surprised when George slammed his fist once more, this time obliterating the wall they were at.
"Hey, front row seats now"! Aria says with a grin.
"That's it"! Yang shouts angrily
"Your fat". The girl finishes.
George's eyes burned brightly before hefting Earthbreaker up.
Ash and Yaron tackled George, who kept yelling, 'Let me at her!'
Weiss noticed Flint taking a stance and splitting into four, before noticing the lava. She got up and tackled him into it as it blew up.
"WEISS"! GRAAY and RB shouted in worry.
Yang turned in shock as Weiss' Aura went down.
"It looks like we have a double knock out"! Port announces.
"In fact, it looks like Miss Schnee's Aura has been completely depleted"! Oobleck notices. "She sacrificed herself to take out Flint"! He reminds.
"Wait! It seems Flint Coal is still in the fight"! Port notices as Flint got up.
"No". Ryan mutters.
"Ladies and Gentleman, Flint Coal remains standing"! Port announces.
"You did it Flint, don't worry the others easy, and kinda annoying". The girl says with a whisper at the end.
Yang growled angrily, her anger reaching the limit.
"Uh oh, it seems Yang's angry, and you won't like her when she's...upset". Port notices, just as Yang roared, causing multiple lava geysers to erupt.
"Da da da, your dead". George sings with a grin.
George's words proved to be true, as Yang unleashed a barrage of shots at the two, which broke craters into the ground.
"Neon! Go". Flint says to the now named Neon.
Neon raced forward as Flint blew his trumpet at Yang, who shrugged it off and battle with Neon, before being launched into the air and unleashing more shots, further messing up Neon's trail. Yang leapt down with a roar of anger, even as Flint shot four shockwaves at her, she powered through it and blew up his trumpet, which backfired and knocked him out of the match.
Neon slipped around, her tempo all out of control, she slipped on a rock, which caused her to freeze up and roll into a geyser, making her an easy shot for Yang, winning the match.
"YEAH! YOU GO YANG"! George cheers, standing on the fractured remains of their part of the booths.
"Weiss"! Ryan says, booking it into the arena.
The others gasped in remembrance and raced forward, spotting Yang as she tended to Weiss.
Ryan ran into a kneeling position near Weiss. "Are you alright"? Ryan asks in worry.
"Yeah...I won't be singing for a while though". She mutters, coughing as her voiced seemed raspy.
"Hey"! Flint's voice rang out, pulling their attention.
"That was a gutsy move Schnee...I can dig it". Flint says, giving Weiss a look of respect.
Weiss smiled before coughing once more.
"Someone get a medic"! Ryan shouts, and by his words some medics came to check on Weiss' condition.
They all stood back as the Medic's checked her over.
"Oi! Ketchum and Schatten"! Flint calls out.
The two turned to Flint.
"Might want to look at this". Flint says, pointing to the screen.
The two looked up, with Yaron having a rarely seen wild smile forming on his face.
Lucien Ligero and Aleon Ligero vs Ash Ketchum and Yaron Schatten.
Their fight was next.
"Good luck Schatten, We're rooting for you". Flint says as he and Neon walk off.
Yaron smirked wildly as he stared at the screen, it was time for vengeance to come. And Lucien would be the first to feel it.
George smiled at Yaron, before his scroll rang, causing him to pull it out.
'Greetings George Armstrong, I am a friend and I want to talk to you, meet me at the fairgrounds as soon as possible, it will only take a bit'. The message read.
Signed CA.
George blinked, and turned to Ryan when his scroll rang too, with the same message, except from someone named CS.
"Should we check it out"? George asks subtly.
"Won't be long they said, it must be important if their calling us now". Ryan responds.
The two nodded and walked out, informing the others they would be back soon.
15 minutes later.
Ash and Yaron walked into the arena as Lucien and his 'partner' did the same.
"Go get them you two"! Ruby cheers.
"Wreck em guys"! Yang shouts.
"Fight well"! Blake cheers.
Weiss waved a flag, showing her support.
Aria was about to cheer, when a hooded figure sat beside her. "You don't mind if I sit here? I've been awaiting this battle for a while". The figure responds, their voice male.
"Yeah, sure, got a name"? Aria asks, a smirk on her face.
The figure hesitated. "Djura". He answers.
"Nice to meet you, and yeah I can't wait for this guy to get what he deserves". Aria says while turning to the fight and cheering.
The figure smiled, almost apathetically, before turning to the fight.
Ash stared down Lucien's partner, who did the same. As Yaron and Lucien glared at each other.
"So, ready to be put down once and for all"? Lucien asks.
"Are you ready to be proven wrong"? Yaron rebuts.
Ash didn't both speaking to his opponent, rather looking around for his teammates.
"Begin"! Port shouts.
Yaron and Lucien drew their weapons and clashed, Yaron using Nightfall and Lucien using a broadsword.
Aleon swung a sword at Ash, who simply grabbed it and threw him out of the arena, not bothering with him.
"And Ash has already eliminated a team member, it seems he's intent on leaving this fight to Yaron". Oobleck noticed.
Yaron gave Ash a nod of thanks before knocking Lucien away. "It's time I show you my vengeance"! Yaron shouts before charging.
George walked through the barren fairgrounds, everyone present at the arena. He huffed and looked around. Only to hear footsteps behind him. He turned and saw a girl with a cowboy hat, head down. It didn't hide the blonde hair she had, which went down her back, a single lock going down the front of her face. She had a white duster coat with black trends, which hid black sports shorts, but not the cowboy boots that was on her feet.
"I take it your the one who called me here"? George asks.
The girl didn't respond, instead she drew a shotgun and fired, it fired a molten slug at George, who's eyes widened. He unsheathed his dagger, which took the attack.
The girl simply fired again, which forced George to draw Earthbreaker and knock the attack away. The girl sheathed her shotgun before racing forward, she threw her hands to the sides, revealing some gauntlets, which had vents which shut, causing the gauntlets to glow as heat built up. She threw a punch at George, who blocked the attack and tried to grab her hand, only to recoil as his glove touched white hot metal, which quickly decked him in the face. George shouted in pain before kicking the girl in the gut, which knocked her back.
The girl clenched her stomach slightly, unaffected by the heat. She opened the vents in her gauntlets, which causes steam to erupt, blinding George as the girl zipped around inside the steam. George tapped into his Aura Vision, allowing him to duck under a strike and flip the girl over his shoulder, before holding her down.
"Now who are you"?! George says while tearing the hat off, before gasping in shock.
It looked as if he was staring at Yang, except he wasn't, she had ruby red eyes which stared into his own, and a more defined facial build. The girl had a orange infinity scarf around her neck, just like Yang.
The girl punched George in the stomach with her heated gauntlets, before getting up and running off, picking her hat up as she ran.
George groaned and looked up, only to see steam. He growled and got up, but not before he remembered her face...just who was she?
Ryan walked to the cafeteria that Weiss and Winter talked at, only to see a girl wearing a light blue cloak sitting at a table, sipping tea with a vacant cup in front of her.
Ryan walked forward and sat down, which caused the girl to look up. Ryan was about to speak when she drew a gold rapier and swung at him, causing him to lean back and draw his own rapiers. He flipped out of the chair and parried the strike.
"Am I at the wrong table"? Ryan asks in shock.
"No, your right where I want you". The girl responds, her voice sounding young.
Ryan crosses his rapiers in front of him, just as the girl twirled the Dust chamber in the rapier, which caused two dust vents to open and collide.
Ryan's eyes widened at the weapon. "Wait...that's-"
The girl swung scalding water at Ryan, who jumped out of the way as it hit the walls, which began to steam.
Ryan raced forward and swung at her, which she parried. The girl took a fencing stance, which was enough for Ryan to take his own.
The two stood in silence before carefully examining their opponents, until the girl swung, which allowed Ryan to parry and swing at her, cutting her hood. Ryan looked and saw sapphire blue eyes staring into his own. The girl gasped and held her hand out, which glowed purple. Ryan only had the time to blink as he was hit by a purple orb, which caused him to recoil, the girl turned and ran off at speeds faster than Ruby!
Ryan gasped as she ran, which surprised him. He blinked before sighing. Those eyes...why did they look so familiar?
Yaron growled and danced around Lucien, who's defense was solid as a rock.
But like a rock, they can be broken with enough pressure.
Yaron blocked a sword strike and swung his second dagger, only succeeding in cutting a piece of cloth off of Lucien's shawl.
"Why not use those corrupt moves you have"? Lucien mocks.
"I don't need them". Yaron began before leaping over Lucien and knocking him upside the head with the hilts. "To defeat you"! He finishes while landing.
Lucien growled before holding his hand out.
Yaron felt the air grow thin, and judging from how Lucien suddenly unleashed a torrent of water at him, it became obvious.
"Water huh? With Oxygen that's going to be complicated". Yang says while watching attentively.
George and Ryan sat down near them, George nursing his bruises and burns.
"What happened to you"? Yang asks in shock.
"Someone called us, only to attack us, we thing they were trying to sabotage the tournament". Ryan answers.
Yang sighed before checking George's bruises and burns.
Yaron leaped over water strikes, so far he was doing well. But sti-
A torrent of water suddenly knocked him back, causing him to cough as it went into his lungs.
"Hey guess what? The human body is made of 70% water? And guess what I can control"? Lucien asks, before holding Yaron up.
Ash stood straight. He wouldn't?
"Now guess what happens when I vibrate your brain? Or better yet solidify the water"? Lucien asks while kneeling before him.
Yaron smirked. "You'll never know". He answers before holding his hand out, the Mark of the Outsider glowing.
Lucien was shocked when a blue shockwave let loose, doing no damage, but made him let go of Yaron.
"What? Was that supposed to hurt me"? Lucien asks before throwing his hand out, only for nothing to happen. He glanced at his hands in confusion before trying so again, resulting in nothing once more.
"Taking my vengeance, you have no more Semblance, and its PAYBACK TIME"! Yaron shouts before lunging.
Yaron pressed a button on one of the daggers, which caused it to hum for a second, before Yaron slammed the second dagger into it, causing it to change. The blades combined and grew, along with the hilt becoming in a X formation, Yaron swung his now single blade out, with his other hand glowing, prepared to use his Mark.
Yaron roared and slashed at Lucien, who didn't expect such retaliation, his strikes were relentless as he swung, fury brimming in his eyes. Lucien could do nothing but stay on the defensive. Yaron glanced at the Aura levels, Lucien was almost out.
Yaron smirked before clashing with Lucien and held his hand out, his Mark glowing. Lucien's eyes widened before he was blown back by an immense burst of energy, knocking him against the ground, his sword falling beside him as his buzzer went off.
Lucien slammed his fist on the ground and reached for his sword, only for Yaron to step on it and pick it up.
"What's this? Mr Schatten has picked up Ligero's sword". Port noticed.
"It appears he is investigating it". Oobleck responds.
Yaron stared at the sword, so many names...so many lives wasted. He glanced at Lucien who recoiled, obviously expecting Yaron to kill him with it.
Yaron merely held it, his Mark glowing. Dark energy gathered around the sword as Yaron gripped it in both hands. He roared and slammed the sword against a pillar, shattering it beyond repair.
The Arena went deathly silent as the sword broke, the shattering noise echoing across the arena.
Yaron panted, anger still inside him. He glanced at Lucien and threw the hilt of his destroyed blade at him. "This is merely a warning, stay away from me and my team, or I WILL kill you". Yaron warns before walking off, the crowd cheering at him now.
Ash and Yaron met in the middle.
"Who's going on"? Ash asks.
"You, I've had my vengeance, you finish up this tournament, show them what your made of". Yaron answers.
Ash nodded and held his sword high, signifying their choice.
The crowd cheered, but not more louder than Ruby and the rest of them.
"That was awesome, don't you think so Dj-" Aria blinked when she saw an empty seat next to her.
"Wha? When did he leave"? Aria asks in shock. She shook her head, questions for later.
"Let's go congratulate them"! Ruby says before zipping off.
The others laughed and followed her, eager to see how the tournament will continue.
To be continued.
And there we go! With a full feast of fighting. What do you think? I hope this one gets more response, I felt like I didn't do well because hardly no one answered. Who were those mysterious people? R&R This is Oathkeeper0317 signing out.
