Emphatic Opening Statement
Grim Eagle vs. Zack
So, he was going up against the Muay Thai party animal? Interesting…He could care less for the other match-ups, it's was just him and his foe that he wanted. Nothing else.
Said opponent was looking at him with a smile and tilting down his glasses to look at him with his brown eyes. Grim just stared back blankly with his green and red eyes.
His match was going to be held tomorrow at the noon at Old Temple in Tokyo.
'This should be fun.' Grim thought.

08:30 hrs. Tokyo, Japan
Grim was out jogging in his black sweat shirt and pants with black sneakers as he normally does to keep fit. The DOA 3 Tournament has begun, and his fight was up first and was going to begin at 9:30pm in the tonight at the Old Temple. His opponent was Zack, a party animal who's skilled in Muay Thai, which he taught himself just by way of monkey see monkey do. Grim would have dismissed him if not for the fact that his superior has beaten any form of arrogance out of him years ago.
'He'd better take this seriously because I don't want an easy fight.' Grim thought.
After jogging down four blocks he decided to go into the coffee shop that was down the next block for a break. He arrived, ordered a caramel mocha with whipped cream and sat down in the corner table to enjoy his coffee. He noticed that the TV in the shop was on and on it was his opponent Zack standing in the arena waving at the crowd. He was bare chested and wearing only his Muay Thai trunks, arms and legs wrapped in tape and with his shades on.
Grim rolled his eyes at the sight. "Looks like the bragging's about to begin."
"We are here at the Old Temple where the first match of the first round will begin." The reporter began, "And as you can all see, Zack is already here waiting for his opponent to show up. That's right ladies and gentlemen, later tonight the opening match of the 3rd DOA Tournament will begin. Now while you're all waiting we'll interview Zack." The reporter went next to the American as he was pumped for his match.
"Tell us Zack how are you feeling right now?"
"I'm feeling pretty good and so much that I feel that the prize money is already mine!" Zack said.
"What about your opponent? You are fighting the newcomer known as Grim Eagle after all and he made quite the name for himself in the prelims."
"True that da Grim Eagle's a beast and has got skills but he still doesn't stand a chance against me which he'll find out after he feels the power of my punches and kicks baby yeah! I doubt he can even handle my speed." Zack replied.
The crowds cheered as Zack turned to continue waving to them.
"Well there you have it folks. Zack is ready to fight, now the question is, is his opponent ready? We'll cover more later today."
'What a braggart. While I respect his confidence, he has no idea who he's dealing with.' Grim thought in annoyance, 'I'll be sending a clear message to everyone tonight.'
Finishing his drink Grim crushed the cup and tossed it into the trash can before leaving the café. It's time to get into a gym for some extra training before the match. However, just as he left the establishment he nearly bumped into a young woman with a slender and petite build of average height, pale skin, dark brown eyes, and a heart-shaped face, her lack hair tied in two braids, looped round, and pinned on either side of her head. She's wearing high-heels and long, formal-looking, body-hugging white cheongsams.
"Sorry." Grim briefly apologized and would have continued if not for the woman getting in his way.
"Hey! You could have run me over you know!" The woman complained.
"But I stopped in time and didn't run you over." Grim replied, "What? You seriously want me to run you over? That can be arranged."
"I'll pass on that." The woman said before moving closer to look at his face.
"Can you please get out of my face?" Grim said in annoyance making her jump back.
"How rude!" The woman said before realization came on her face, "So you're the new guy, Grim Eagle. What kind of name is that?!"
"And you're the Tai Chi Quan genius Lei Fang. Nice to meet you but I don't have time to chat with you." Grim deadpanned before moving around her. "Sayonara."
However, once again Lei Fang got in his way. "Hey! Is that all you have to say?"
A tick came above Grim's left eye. "Unless you're fucking deaf, I already apologized to you or what? Are you secretly a fucking hooker too? No? Then please excuse me before I make you unable to participate in your match."
Lei Fang was pissed at the hooker remark and wanted to teach this upstart rookie a lesson, but she knew better than to break the rules as he had an upcoming match. So, she had to suck it up and let it slide.
"Tch. Be glad that you have a match tonight. Else I'd throttle you right here and now." Lei Fang said.
"More like I'll wipe the floor with you and move on with my life." Grim responded while leaving. "See ya later."
With that he walked away leaving a pissed off Lei Fang glaring at his back.
'Ugh! He pisses me off so much! Acting like he owns the place. The arrogant ass. I hope Zack beats him!'

15:00 hrs. Tokyo, Japan
In preparation for his upcoming match Grim was inside a gym practicing doing some shadow boxing and katas.
Once again, he knew he was being watched but this time it was by someone else than 'Lavender Kunoichi'.
What?! He doesn't know her name so he's rolling with this one. Deal with it!
Anyways as for who was watching him this time it was 'Orangey Kunoichi' (Yes, he's calling her that so shut up!), whom was wearing a most ridiculous disguise…Japanese school girl uniform. Seriously?! If that wasn't bad enough she was being leered at by some guys in the gym, and those same guys were about to move towards her. He knew that Orangey Kunoichi could wipe the floor with them easily, but Grim decided to save her the trouble.
He grabbed four different weights and threw them at the perverts. Result…four knocked the fuck out perverts along with cracked skulls, swelling and a lot of surprised people in the gym.
Orangey Kunoichi saw his handiwork and gave a deadpanned expression while Grim shrugged and said, "My hand slipped. I was aiming for the nuts." And cue face faults and other guys covering their nuts.
Soon Grim was now dressed in his casual clothes and leaving the gym while dropping money at the reception for 'damages'. As he passed by Orangey Kunoichi he whispered in her ears.
'Next time you want to spy on me, don't wear such an obvious disguise. You never know the kind of morons you could attract.'
The kunoichi yelped as she felt something tap her butt and turned to glare at Grim, only to see a smiling idiot. Her face turned red in anger and embarrassment before yelling "HENTAI!" and beating the unlucky guy black and blue. She soon stomped out of the gym still red in the face at that incident while Grim watched from a distance with a grin on his face.
'I should feel sorry for the poor sap I set up, but…I won't since he's the one who was dumb enough to tap her ass.' He thought before making himself scarce.
As for the poor sap he was taken to the hospital where he needed ice for his nuts, stitches for his face and some fillings for his messed-up teeth. How unlucky indeed.
…
DOA Dome locker room, 21:00hrs
Sitting on the bench is a serious Grim, wearing a black muscle shirt with an eagle logo on the chest, long Vale Tudo trunks, and red gloves. His face showed no emotion as he just stared at the wall after finishing some fight warming routines. Soon, there was knocking on the door.
"Mr. Grim, it's almost time for your match!"
"Thanks! I'm on my way out." Grim Eagle replied as he stood up from the bench before quickly roaring and walking towards the door. 'Well then, let the games begin.'
…
The Grim Eagle walked on the walkway with his game face on into the arena where he saw his opponent Zack waiting for him with the large crowd cheering for both men and in anticipation. He walked towards the smiling Zack who lifted his shades slightly to show his brown eyes.
"What do you know? You came after all. Thought you'd get cold feet and drop out when you knew who you're up against." Zack said.
"How unfortunate for you right? Me coming to beat your sorry ass in front of your adoring fans." Grim replied dryly. 'And you'll be my message boy to the others.' He added.
A tick mark came above Zack's right eye before the shades came back down. "That's my line rookie. Fortunately, class is in session and Zack here is gonna school you." He got into his fighting stance, bouncing on his feet.
Grim Eagle got into a sideways stance with his right hand closed and up to his chin and his left lower, forward and closed.
The DOA newcomers, veterans and the fans were up in the stands and with their eyes open on this match but especially on Grim Eagle, wanting to see how he fares in his first match. The ninjas, Jann Lee, Lei Fang, Christie and Hitomi especially were paying attention.
Get ready...FIGHT!
Zack rushed in and fired off a very fast leg kick which Grim easily back lunged to avoid before moving back in. Zack threw another kick and once again hit air with Grim out of the way and stepping back in. Grim then sent Zack stumbling back with a powerful teep kick to the body getting cheers from the crowd at his power. Zack managed to maintain his balance and get back forward towards the stalking Grim.
Zack's two punches are slipped again by Grim and the follow up kick misses as Grim once again back lunges out of the way.
Up in the stands…
"Tch! All he's doing is just dodging in and out. Is that all he can do?" Lei Fang complains.
"I'd expected someone like you to know better. He's taking his time to get Zack's timing down." Jann Lee stated, "When he's done he'll make his move."
Lei Fang scoffed. "That's if he's still standing after that."
"What's your problem with Grim anyways?" Hitomi asked.
"I don't like him. That's all." Lei Fang replied.
Back at the fight…
Zack moves in with a flying knee, but Grim intercepts him with a sidestepping switch check hook that drops the airborne fighter. Zack somehow springs back to his feet and the two fighters move back to the center. Then Grim explodes with a lunging lead hook that drops Zack hard on his back, attracting cheers from the crowd as the Grim Eagle pounces on his rocked opponent. Unfortunately, he can't get the finish and Zack manages to get up to his feet while narrowly avoiding a lead head kick. Grim gives the Muay Thai fighter no time to recuperate and explodes again with a lunging straight and drops him hard again this time on his face. This time Grim gets backside control on Zack and pounds away ruthlessly. In a few seconds Zack goes limp and the assault ends as the Grim Eagle walks away from his unconscious opponent.
KO!
The crowd's going ballistic with that emphatic finish as the newcomer Grim Eagle defeated veteran DOA fighter Zack in less than two minutes.
WINNER!
The camera zooms in on Grim Eagle as he looks into it and points saying, "All that bragging, and you got annihilated so easily?! Pathetic!" He then walks away and suddenly vanishes in dark flaming wisps.
This surprises everyone including the ninjas especially as no one expected him to be a ninja.
…
"Another ninja? This is unexpected." Ryu Hayabusa said.
"Indeed. This is unexpected Ryu, but it also corroborates Ayane's initial findings." Hayate stated.
"The question is what clan?" Ayane added, "So far he's not from any clan we know of and I never even knew he could do that either, meaning his element is fire."
"That's no ordinary fire." Hayate pointed out, "It's dark but…"
"Not evil." Ryu finished for him, "Nor good either. Rogue ninja?"
"We can't say until we find out ourselves." Hayate said, "Ayane, continue keeping an eye on him."
"Yes, Hayate." Ayane responds before vanishing from the area.
…
From her spot in the stands the orange haired kunoichi looks down at the spot where Grim Eagle was before he vanished.
"Who are you?" She mutters before taking her leave from the arena.
…
Christie looks back at the same spot with narrowed eyes. "Who are you really Grim Eagle?"
Chapter 2 End.
Grim Eagle sends a message with that vicious finish and creates more questions for the ninjas and certain parties. Will this screw him over or only add more fun for him?
Leave a review and something constructive, will be appreciated. Flames however get trashed like a certain jackass who once left a sorry excuse of an interview.
