(The Arena)
The audience was still going wild as the spotlight shined on the curtain. Suddenly, a regal-like music had started to play in the background.
"And here is the person who drew Number 1!" Tiny announced as the first contestant walked out.
"MILLIA MAXWELL!" (To)
The blonde swordswoman stood outside of the entrance curtain with a determined look on her face. She slowly walked down.
While doing so, she politely smiled and waved to the people who were cheering on. (80% of them were men.)
When she had finally reached the end of the ramp, she leaped in. She then turned around and glared at the entrance curtain swinging her sword. Whoever drew number two was her first and hopefully not last opponent.
"And here's the person who drew number TWO!" SSBFreak announced.
"DOCTRINE DARK!" (ST: EX)
The gas-mask wearing psychopath leaped out of the Ready Room and made a creepy motion. Seeing that he literally had only one target for now, he darted over breathing heavily.
Despite creeped out by D. Dark's appearance, she thought quickly and used her sword to block his retractable blades.
"Not one to hesitate, are you?" Millia said coolly.
"I don't play around with my prey." D. Dark said darkly.
Millia narrowed her eyes. "We see about that."
"ESPIO THE CHAMELEON!" (StH)
The purple-scaled ninja coolly stood with outside of the curtain with his arms crossed. He then snapped to attention and disappeared into leaves much to the audience's surprise.
was clashing weapons with Millia. However, he snapped to attention and swung his blade behind.
A shuriken bounced onto the arena floor after it got deflected. Espio then reappeared.
"So that is how you want to play, lizard?" D. Dark snarled.
"I can already tell you are a dangerous man." Espio said getting out a kunai. "Until more fighters come to keep you under control, I won't let you go."
"I appreciate the support." Millia said readying herself.
D. Dark snarled. The tournament literally just started already it was going to be a long time for him.
"WANG-TANG!" (PS)
The Chinese fighter jumping up and down in place trying to get himself pumped. With a smirk, he bounded for the ring and leaped in without a second thought.
After he did so, he noticed the two against one fight going on so far.
"Hmm… Those two seem to have that creepazoid covered so they may not need my help." Wang-Tang mused. "I guess I just have to wait until the next fighter comes."
"CHAE-LIM!" (KoF: MI)
One of the students of Kim Kaphwan, Chae-Lim kicked off her legs a couple of times and breaking into a stance. Seeing D. Dark as the only evil person so far, she made a beeline for the ring and leaped in.
Suddenly, Wang-Tang leaped in her face. "Hey! Wanna spar for a minute?"
Chae-Lim blinked twice before looking at the fight between D. Dark versus Millia and Espio and then back at Wang-Tang.
"All right. I am not one to back down a Challenge." Chae-Lim said sternly. "But only for a little while."
"Got it." Wang-Tang smirked before getting into a stance.
"KYOSUKE KAGAMI!" (RS)
The fan-girls went wild as the white-clad student adjusted his glasses overlooking the chaos that was happenING so far. He casually made his way down and stepped in.
"Cross Cutter!" He yelled sending two waves of electricity at D. Dark.
The mercenary had looked too late and took the attack to the chest. After being surged with electricity, he stepped back in pain.
"Okay, I don't know whether I should be flattered that I am getting so much attention or annoyed." D. Dark said glaring at the guilty party.
"Don't misunderstand. I am only attacking you because people like you make me sick." Kyosuke said engulfing his hand in electricity.
"ZELOS WILDER!" (To)
If some fan-girls actually stay quiet during Kyosuke's entrance, it certainly wasn't the case now. The red-headed womaniser walked out with a grin and his theme song playing through the speakers.
"Thank you, thank you." He said shaking hands with the girls. "No, no. You're too kind."
Once he finally reached the ramp, he jumped in and readied a sword and shield. Then, he saw Espio being threw in front of him courtesy of D. Dark.
"Looks like you are having trouble with ugly over there, huh?" Zelos said with a smirk.
"Indeed. He is as skilled as he is deadly." Espio said getting up with a glare.
He was about to go back into the fray until Zelos put his sword in front of him.
"Oh no. I think it is going to take more than an overgrown lizard to beat him." The swordsman taunted. "Why not have a REAL fighter save the day?"
Espio narrowed his eyes before getting into his stance. "I shouldn't give in to petty insults but you asked for it."
"MARTH!" (SSB)
The fan-girls couldn't believe their luck. Kyosuke, Zelos AND Marth all in a row. The blue-haired prince adjusted the tiara on his head before marching down the ramp to a royal theme though the speakers.
Once in the ring, he scanned the opponents. "Hmm… I want to fight a fellow swordsman but the only ones are already preoccupied."
Deciding that if he helped Millia, he could have a duel with her so he charged over to D. Dark.
However, the blonde man had seen him from the corner of his eye. Narrowing his eyes, he threw something at the young man. Marth, out of reflexes struck the projectile with his blade.
BOOM!
In an explosion, Marth fell across the arena engulfed in flames. Striking bombs never did go well for anyone.
"GUILMON!" (DRA)
The red dinosaur-like Digimon curiously stepped out of the entrance curtain to a large cheer. Despite this, he looked around curiously sniffing the air a couple of times. He walked down the ramp politely waving to the crowd and leaping in.
Wang-Tang got up after being kicked away from Chae-Lim to see the reptile jump in. "Um, hey."
"Hey. Can I fight you? This is my first time doing one of those tournaments Takato told me about." Guilmon said.
"Well, I admit it that I am a rookie myself." Wang-Tang said before getting into a stance. "Okay, show me what you are working with."
Guilmon happily nodded. Suddenly, he growled before giving out a very intimidating glare.
Wang-Tang's face fell. "Aw, nuts…"
"And now, Mystery Fighter… Number… ONE!"
"DR. BOSKONOVITCH!" (Tekken 3)
The old, balding scientist nervously stepped from behind the curtain overlooking all of the chaos in the arena.
"Okay, I can do this." Dr. B said nervously as he stepped down. "Just avoid any and all people who look like they fight to kill and I should be all right."
However, when he was walking down, he actually failed to see the end of the ramp. By the time he had figured it out, he had tripped and had fallen flat on his face.
The old man groaned before slowly raising his head to see Zelos staring at him.
"Yeah… No offense, old man but you kinda suck…" The red-haired man said bluntly.
Dr. B sighed before putting his face back on the canvas.
(Announcer's Booth)
Orange-Ratchet turned to Tinyrocket. "Why did you invite THAT guy?
The main host merely shrugged. "I wanted to start the Mystery Fighters off with fodder first."
SSBFreak chuckled. "You're learning."
(Dome; Hallway)
Tiny Tiger happily walked down the hallway. Being the dim-witted tiger that he was, he had one target on his mind. The training room.
The muscular cat had been given an early draw. Normally that would discourage someone but not Tiny. He was so happy to get a chance to fight that he doesn't care if his chances of winning were slim. That won't stop him from trying to win.
Tiny was one of the very few people who was in Bison's alliance but was not talking with the others. Mainly because he had an early draw and was able to speak with the others. However, as soon as he was eliminated, he was to report to Dr. Cortex immediately.
"Tiny wonder why Cortex trust scary-eyed man." Tiny mused. "Tiny heard bad things about him."
He then made his way around the corner.
Then, he accidentally bumped into someone. It did little to make flinch. Instead, the person he walked into staggered back a few steps.
Tiny grinned when he saw it was Dingodile.
"Hello, Dingodile!" The tiger said happily.
The hybrid's eyes widened in shock. "TINY! What are ya doing here? Shouldn't ya be getting ready to go ta the… Well, Ready Room?"
"Tiny going to gym." Tiny grinned. "Tiny already strong but Tiny want to train before going into arena."
"Oh…" Dingodile said nervously. "Ah see."
Tiny raised an eyebrow. "Why Dingodile here? Tiny thought that Dingodile had late draw. Why Dingodile not with Boss?"
"Well, ya see… Ah…" Dingodile started.
However, he sighed in defeat hanging his head.
"Tiny, can ya keep a secret?" The pyromaniac asked.
"Ooh, Tiny loves secrets!" The tiger said clapping his hands together like a little kid.
Dingodile nodded his head with a stern look.
"Ah am playing hooky."
Tiny looked surprised at this. "Hooky? Like how everyone avoids washing dishes when their turn?"
"Ya got it, mate." Dingodile nodded.
"But why? Why Dingodile play hooky when Boss has job for us?" Tiny asked.
Dingodile again sighed before taking a deep breath.
"For a good long while, Ah wanted some action. Some fun. Recently, Ah been hanging around Cortex Castle doing trivial stuff." The Australian said crossing his arms. "Then, we all got this invitation ta this big tournament and how Cortex wants us ta do it? Running errands for that freak, Bison!"
"Tiny no like scary-eyed man but boss give order." Tiny scolded.
"So? What about MAH needs?" Dingodile asked.
"What about Dingodile's needs?" Tiny asked.
Dingodile slapped his head in frustration. To say that Tiny was dim-witted was an understatement. In fact, the muscle-bound cat had actually thought that Cortex was the good guy and the bandicoots were the bad guys.
"Listen, mate." Dingodile said putting a hand on his shoulder. "There are better things Ah could be doing with mah time here. This is practically a free vacation and Ah don't want ta be bossed around by someone who isn't even our regular boss. There are more to life than following orders Cortex said."
Tiny blinked twice. "There is?"
Dingodile hang his head. "Ugh… This is getting us nowhere. Look, just promise me NOT to tell anyone where Ah gone, all right?"
Tiny bit his lip. However, he gave in and sighed. "Okay. But Dingodile promise Tiny not to get caught."
"Heh, Ah could imagine keep that promise!" The tall creature said before walking past Tiny and lightly slapping him on the shoulder. "Thanks, mate!"
Tiny hang his head down as Dingodile walked away. What did he meant by there was more to life than following orders? Even since he had been created, he had been following Cortex's orders to the end.
(The Arena)
"KOMODO JOE!" (CB)
The slimmer Komodo brother slowly dragging his finger against his scimitar while hissing at the arena. He immediately dashed towards the ring at an alarming rate and leaped ready to claim his first victim.
Marth looked up to see Joe putting his sword over his head ready to slash the prince in half.. Giving a yelp of fright, he easily blocked the attack with his own blade before kicking Joe in the stomach.
"What in the world?" Marth demanded. "You almost killed me!"
"That wasssss my intention." Joe smirked readying himself. "Besidesssss… It's not like you won't get ssssstitched back up when you die."
Marth narrowed his eyes. "I don't know what is more annoying. Your attitude or your speech manner."
"IORI YAGAMI!" (KoF: MI)
Once again, the hormones for the fan-girls had gone crazy. Kyo's red-haired rival ignited a purple flame in his hand and glared at the arena.
"From what I heard, Kyo had gotten a later draw." He lamented before smirking and walking down. "No matter, I'll just survive each section until he appears."
When he leaped in, he made his way over to D. Dark. The gas-mask wearer saw him coming.
Immediately, D. Dark got into a stance. "What do YOU want?"
"Even from far away, I could sense your bloodthirst." Iori said with a smirk. "You may actually last a few minutes against me."
D. Dark narrowed his eyes while getting out his blades. "Kid, you have no idea who you are up against."
With that, the two people lunged at each other unaware that Millia, Kyosuke and Chae-Lim were staring at them.
"Um, did those guys just forgot about us?" Chae-Lim asked flatly.
"How insulting." Kyosuke said crossing his arms. "But at the same time, at least they are focusing their violent natures on each other rather the other fighters."
Millia frowned before putting her hand on her hip. "Now what?"
"MILLIA RAGE!" (GG)
Millia's eyes bugged out before staring at the entrance curtain.
A blonde woman with a very long ponytail walked down the ramp.
"That monster, Zato isn't here for a few sections…" Millia frowned. "So I just have to make sure that I am still in it when he finally comes out."
With that, she jumped in and casually walked over to Millia Maxwell. The two glared at each other for a moment.
"Nice hair." Millia R. said.
"Your hair isn't too bad itself." Millia M. said.
Millia R. then somehow raised her hair above her. "Listen, nothing personal but there is someone I really need to fight and I need to survive long enough to face him."
Millia M. slashed the air a few times. "Well, I am sorry. But you are going to face this person, you have to prove that you are capable of lasting that long."
"Don't worry, I intend to." Millia R. said with a smirk.
"MILES "TAILS" PROWER!" (StH)
"I wanna fly high!"
"So I could reach the…"
"Highest of all the heavens!"
"Somebody will be…"
"Waiting for me."
"So I have to fly higher!"
To his theme song, "Believe in Myself", the young two-tailed fox walked out only to shrink back when he heard the loud cheer for him.
With a now beet-red face, he sheepishly scratched the back of his head and waved to the crowd. Spinning his twin tails, he flew into the ring.
Espio saw him come in and walked over with a surprisingly sly smirk. "Not so used to being Mr. Popular, are you?"
Tails nervously poked the fingers together. "Yeah, I knew I had a fanbase but to actually see them cheering for me took me off-guard."
"In any case, I was hoping of doing some solo fighting." Espio said going back to his usual serious state. "Don't hesitate to ask me if you want to do some double-teaming."
Tails smiled and nodded. "Thanks, Espio."
"ARINA!" (WW7)
With her vocal song playing, the rabbit-eared teenaged stretched herself as she got a decent cheer. (For Waku Waku 7 standards though, it was quite big.)
After she was ready, she ran down the ramp and leaped in without a second thought. She then made a beeline for Wang-Tang. The cook only noticed her when he got a boot to the fact for his troubles.
"Ow! What the?" Wang-Tang said before looking at the guilty party. "Oh, you are from Waku Waku 7, right?"
Arina proudly smiled at this. "That's right. Leading lady as well!"
Wang-Tang nervously scratched the back of his head. "So your node is the Token Kizuna Encounter of this tournament?"
Arina's smile immediately vanished knowing how poorly Kizuna Encounter did in the Megamix Tournament.
"How dare you!" The brunette snarled before attempting another kick. "I will never forgive you for that comment!"
Wang-Tang yelped before parrying the blow with a kick of his own. "Okay… I SO deserved that."
(Waku Waku 7 Locker Room)
Mugi and her giant friend, Mauru looked in awe. "I haven't seen Miss Arina so mad before."
"I have…" Rai pouted.
"In a way, that boy IS right." Tesse frowned. "Not only are we outmatched in terms of numbers but fighting skills as well."
"Hey, don't talk like that!" Rai scolded. "Just because we haven't seen work in a long while doesn't mean we are pushovers."
"That's right. We may not be as strong as people from Street Fighter or King of Fighters but we can all hold our own just fine." Dandy-J nodded.
"Besides, maybe being from Waku Waku 7 will automatically forget the most important lesson in fighting." Slash agreed. "NEVER underestimate your opponent."
Tesse looked around at her nodal companions. "I sure hope you're right."
(The Arena)
"IRON TAGER!" (BB)
The appropriately-named "Red Devil" adjusted his glasses before heading down the ramp making loud footsteps along the way.
Tails saw that he was about to jump in. With his eyes widening, he flew off. "Brace yourself!"
Tager jumped in causing a tremor across the entire ring knocking most of the fighters down.
"Hmm… Everyone seemed to be preoccupied at the moment." The giant mused. "I wonder if I should interrupt a fight or wait for the next person to come out.
"SOPHIE!" (To)
The purple-haired young girl stood outside the entrance curtain with a blank look on her face. With her long twin pigtails nearly touching the ramp, she walked down and leaped in next to Iron Tager.
The red-skinned man raised an eyebrow. "May I help you?"
Sophie merely nodded. "May I have a fight with you, please?"
Tager merely shook his head. "Little Miss, please don't take this the wrong way but I think you are better off fighting someone else."
Sophie narrowed her eyes. "I am far stronger than I look."
"All right, surprise me." Tager sighed. "Give me your best shot."
Sophie nodded before pulling her arms back gathering energy. She then sent her palms into Tager's torso.
Much to everyone's (especially Tager's) surprise, she had managed to send Tager skidding back quite a few feet ago.
Tager held his stomach in awe before looking back at Sophie. "All right. You win. Show me what you got kid."
"DIDDY KONG!" (SSB)
The red-clad monkey came out to a decent cheer. Donkey's sidekick energetically jumped up and down before leaping in.
However, that was when Dr. B walked in. Diddy landed on top of the surprise scientist's face causing him to stagger back. The latter then grabbed the monkey and threw him on the ground.
"Hey! You nearly suffocated me!" Dr. B demanded. "What do you have to say for yourself?"
Diddy did his usual monkey talk with a confused look on his face.
Dr. B blinked twice. "Okay, you know what? As long as I'm stuck here, I might as well teach you some manners!"
Diddy chirped before getting out two wooden popguns.
"And now… Mystery Fighter… Number… TWO!"
"AMINGO!" (Marvel VS Capcom 2)
The audience looked in awe as a rotund cactus-like creature with a sombrero bounded down the ramp looking excited.
"Amingo!" He yelled before leaping in.
Kyosuke turned to see Amingo running over to him. He then rolled his eyes. "The Mystery Fighters so far really leaves much to be desired."
Using his Cross Cutter move, he sent two waves of electricity at the cactus. However, Amingo puffed out his chest making spikes appear all over it blocking the twin projectiles.
Kyosuke blinked twice before getting into his stance. "All right. Maybe not a complete pushover but still hasn't convinced me as a threat yet."
"Amingo!"
"VEGA!" (SF: EX)
The definition of the term "fighting narcissist" put on his trademark mask on his face. No matter where he goes, he refused to get a single scratch on his face.
The clawed fighter then sprinted down to the ring and leaped in heading over to Zelos.
The swordsman raised an eyebrow. "May I help you?"
"I just couldn't help but notice. You are a handsome man, indeed." Vega said.
Zelos merely wringed his finger in his ear. "Yeah, I know but I couldn't care less what men think of me."
"Really? I guess it can't be helped but that's really too bad." Vega said raising his claw. "Because I will be the one to preserve your young, beautiful face in blood."
Zelos yelped before getting into his fighting stance. "I know that being as sexy as me would get me some unwanted fans but this is ridiculous!"
"AKIRA KAZAMA!" (RS)
Daigo's little sister adjusted her biker gloves before taking a deep breath to calm herself. Once she was ready, she walked down and leaped in.
She then ran over to help Kyosuke with Amingo. Gathering chi in her hands, she sent a giant ball of energy into Amingo damaging him greatly.
Kyosuke watched as Amingo staggered back. "Thank you."
"No problem." Akira said. "I told myself to help any and all nodal companions except for Kurow and Momo."
"I see." Kyosuke nodded. "Can't argue with that."
"So how dangerous is that thing?" Akira asked.
"I wouldn't say dangerous…" Kyosuke said as he saw Amingo turn his arms into clubs. "Though I WOULD say that he is unpredictable."
"CRUNCH BANDICOOT!" (CB)
The muscular bandicoot jumped out from behind the curtain and immediately started to pose for the audience resulting in a cheer. After his showboating was done, he ran towards the ramp and leap in.
"All right. Komodo Joe is in the ring but I could kick his scaly tail any day of the week." Crunch said before he set sights on Guilmon who was merely looking around. "Bingo!"
With that, he stampeded towards him. Guilmon however had shown amazing reflexes and turned towards the giant.
"Rock Breaker!" The Digimon yelled engulfing his claws in fire and flipping forward.
Crunch thought quickly and blocked with his metal arm stopping the attack. "Heh. I actually also felt that one. This is going to be fun."
(Dome; Lobby)
Shoma Sawamura walked into the lobby carrying his trademark giant baseball bat over his shoulder. He wanted to prepare for his turn when he enters the tournament so he gone back to his room to prepare.
"I think I got everything." Shoma mused. "That should be enough."
With that, he made his way over past the counter to join his nodal companions in the Rival Schools locker room. Hopefully, Momo wasn't there. He didn't need ANOTHER love triangle fight.
Suddenly, he saw two figures coming out from the opposite side of the lobby.
Valgas and Kraken walked in talking to each other.
"So what does that Bison guy want us to do again?" Kraken asked.
Hearing Bison's name made Shoma's eyes bugged out.
Valgas slapped his forehead. "You imbecile! Weren't you listening one bit to the plan?"
"I was… But I almost fell asleep." Kraken shrugged.
Valgas grunted in annoyance. "We are supposed to find some people who we can "persuade" to help us."
"Oh, because our numbers are very low and we need all of the help we can get." Kraken said. "That white-haired creep with the claws and flute is going to do our bidding?"
"From what I heard." Valgas said.
That tore it for Shoma. He remembered the trouble Kurow had caused him and everyone else. Readying his bat, he stomped over.
"Hey!" The baseball player said startling the two.
"Huh?" Kraken asked relaxing himself. "Oh, it is just a squirt."
Shoma's eyes widened at this. "What was that?"
"You heard me. Scram! It is WAY past your bedtime, kiddo." Kraken taunted.
Shoma gritted his teeth in anger. If it was one thing he hated, it was being called out on his height.
"I heard that you are in cohorts with Kurow and Bison!" He snarled. "I am going to tear you guys apart!"
The two Power Stone villains blinked twice before looking at each other. They then laughed much to Shoma's growing rage.
"Okay, you know what? Kraken, how about you humour him?" Valgas asked. "Normally I'll do it myself but I am on a mission."
"Meh. Why not?" The pirate asked. Valgas then walked off.
"When I am done with you, your equally ugly brother is next!" Shoma demanded.
"Heh. Yeah, right." Kraken smirked.
(The Arena)
"LIEN NEVILLE!" (Kof: MI)
This time, it was the men's turn to go ballistic. The blonde assassin stood on the ramp with her hand on her hip seemingly ignoring the loud catcalls she was getting.
She walked over to the ring and stepped in. The minute she got in however, Chae-Lim stormed over.
"Oh no. It's Little Miss White Knight." Lien said rolling her eyes.
Chae-Lim narrowed her eyes. "As student of the great Taekwondo master, Kim Kaphwan, I will vanquish any or all evil."
"Sure, why not? I could afford to play around a while before going to bigger opponents." Lien said getting into her stance.
"BLAZE THE CAT!" (StH)
The flame-wielding purple princess stood outside the entrance curtain. Deciding to be a sport for the crowd, she demonstrated her powers over fire by summoning a giant fireball in her hands. Everyone cheered at the display.
Once she was done, she stopped the flame and made her way to the ring. Once she was in, she ran over to Komodo Joe (who was still fighting with Marth) and gave him a hard kick in the back.
The Komodo dragon turned around to glare at the guilty party. "Sssssso, the kitty got a death wish."
Blaze got into a stance. "I don't like your personality. I think you need someone to serve you a piece of humble pie."
Marth pouted at this. "I was holding my own against him just fine."
"Well, now you got a teammate." Blaze said sending a wave of fire at Komodo Joe.
"BRIDGET!" (GG)
The blue-clad boy (Yes, you read right) hummed a jovial tune while playing with his yo-yos. Once he was done, he marched down to the ring and jumped in.
Zelos saw him and his face lit up. Clocking Vega in the side of the head with his shield, he shoved him away and made his way over.
"Hello, honey." Zelos smirked.
"Um, hi?" Bridget said taken back by the comment.
"What is a cute little girl doing here without an escort?" Zelos asked.
Bridget blinked twice before sighing. Time to unleash the truth on another poor sap.
"Well, you see…"
(Tales of Locker Room)
"I can't believe Zelos just hit on the most famous crossdresser ever." Cless said in disbelief.
"I can." Sheena said rolling her eyes.
(The Arena)
"LEON MAGNUS!" (To)
The fangirls' cry had just barely managed to drown out Zelos' cry of anguish. The dark-haired man rolled his eyes at his nodal companion's display. He then got out a sword and a knife.
"I fail to see the difficulty." Leon said coolly.
"Go on, Leon! I know you can win!" The sword spoke.
Leon nodded before walking over and jumping in. His first targets were D. Dark and Iori.
"Demon Fang!" He yelled swinging his sword and sending a shockwave on the ground towards the two.
The two blood-thirsty fighters saw the attack coming and leaped back to avoid it.
"What is with all of these interruptions?" D. Dark snarled.
"Consider this a compliment. You two are the only ones so far who can even reach my level." Leon said.
"Flattered." Iori said narrowing his eyes. "But flattery will not let you live."
"NASH!" (CB)
Crunch's eyes widened before he looked up at the entrance curtain. "Oh no!"
"What's wrong?" Guilmon asked confused.
"You see." Crunch groaned holding his face.
The mechanical shark excitedly jumped up and down while punching the air multiple times. "Put them up! Put them up!"
Then, he saw who else was in the ring. Narrowing his eyes, he quickly ran down the ramp making a large trail of dust clouds as he did so.
Soon, Nash was in front of Crunch. "All right, Muscles! Payback for beating me back at Barin!"
"Hey! You lost fair and square, buddy!" The muscular bandicoot scolded. "Nobody likes a sore loser!
"Tsk! You may have beaten me in racing but you WON'T best me in fighting!" Nash snapped.
"PIT!" (SSB)
The young-looking angel excited leaped up with excitement carrying his two swords. Spreading his wings, he flew over to the arena.
Once he landed, he walked over to Tails. "Hey, can we spar? You look like you will be a challenge."
The young genius blinked twice. "Seriously?"
"Yes, Sonic had told me a lot of great things about you." Pit said.
Tails blushed before scratching the back of his head. "Yeah, but probably not as a fighter."
"Even still, it is quite rare for Sonic to give someone so much praise." Pit said readying himself.
Tails nodded. "All right. You're on."
"PULLUM PURNA!" (ST:EX)
The belly-dancing princess skipped down the ramp humming a tune to herself. She then skipped in.
Wang-Tang raised an eyebrow before walking over. "Rouge? What are you doing here? I thought that you got a later draw than this."
Pullum looked at the young man in confusion. "Excuse me?"
Wang-Tang quickly realized his mistake. "Oh, my bad. Carry on."
With that, he walked off. Pullum blinked twice before shrugging and making his way towards Guilmon who was watching Crunch and Nash fight.
"Hey there, cutie!" Pullum said getting the Digimon's attention. "Wanna dance with me?"
Guilmon tilted his head in confusion. "But… I thought that this is a fighting tournament."
Pullum merely giggled. "Well, let me show you that you can dance AND fight at the same time."
"And now, the final fighter of this section…"
"ALBA MEIRA!" (KoF: MI)
The main character of the Maximum Impact series stood with his arms crossed. He stomped over to the ring and stepped in.
"Hmm… Lien is here but so is Chae-Lim." Alba mused. "I suppose I should be thankful that they are keeping each preoccupied."
Suddenly, he sensed someone's presence. Turning around, he saw Espio walking over.
"So you are technically the main hero of the node." Espio said before getting into a stance. "Please... Bless me with the privilege of a fight."
Alba merely adjusted his shades. "Excuse me if I am not impressed."
"Don't let my size fool you." Espio warned getting out two shuriken. "I am a ninja."
Alba raised an eyebrow before shrugging. "All right. We'll see if you can actually walk the walk."
