Glitz Pit Thanksgiving Battle 2019: Dragon Puncher vs. Mario

It's Thanksgiving at the Glitz Pit and everyone is enjoying this amazing holiday as Lakitu came in to the stage. He said, "Hello everyone and a very happy Thanksgiving! Today is a very special day here at the Glitz Pit and as a way of saying thank you, we have a real treat for you this afternoon. For today's showdown, we have The Great Gonzales versus the Fire Breath Punisher!"

As Lakitu heard this, the crowd roared with excitement. Then he said, "That's right, folks! We have two best fighters going head to head in a very special Thanksgiving Day battle! So without further delay, it's time to meet... THE COMBATANTS!"

With the words shouted, the crowd cheered as Lakitu prepares to introduce the first fighter. Then he said, "Our first fighter for today is the Fire Breath Punisher. He is a lean, mean, fighting machine in every battle and today, he'll bring some pain to anyone who stands in his way. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the Fire Breath Punisher... DRAGON PUNCHER!"

Just then, the red doors open up and I came in to the ring in my green and orange fighting gear. I smiled to the crowd and said, "Thank you so much, everyone! Thank you!"

Then Lakitu came to me and said, "Happy Thanksgiving, Fire Breath Punisher!"

"Thank you, Lakitu! I'm so glad to be here on this Thanksgiving Day to have a friendly battle with The Great Gonzales! This is going to be the best battle on this day!" I replied with a smile.

Lakitu agreed with me and said, "Well, I hope you'll do great today! Good luck out there!"

"Thanks, Lakitu!" I said as Lakitu came over to the blue door.

Then Lakitu smiled and said, "And now, let's meet our second fighter for this afternoon. He is the legendary warrior of the Mushroom Kingdom and protector of the Earth. He competes in various sports like tennis, kart racing, and more. Ladies and gentlemen, here he comes! The Great Gonzales himself... MARIO!"

Just then, Mario came in to the ring from the blue doors and received a standing ovation from the crowd as he jumped into the ring. Then Lakitu came to him and said, "Welcome to the battle, Mario!"

"Thank you, Lakitu! I'm so glad to be here on this Thanksgiving Day and it's an honor to be here fighting the Fire Breath Punisher!" Mario replied with a smile.

Lakitu agreed with him as Mario smiled to the crowd. Then he said, "Alright, then! Now that we have our two fighters for this afternoon, it's officially time to get this battle started!"

With the words shouted, the crowd erupted in big cheers. Then Lakitu said, "Now here to start this amazing Thanksgiving Day showdown is our special guest referee! He is the very first champion of the Glitz Pit and the brother of Jolene. He is one of the best fighters on this stage and today, he's here for this amazing battle. Ladies and gentlemen, here he is! The arena's very first champion... PRINCE MUSH!"

Just then, Prince Mush came in to the ring for this amazing battle as the crowd cheered for him. Then he took a bow and said, "Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Thank you for that amazing applause! You're the best!"

When everyone is done cheering for Mush, he said, "Alright then, let's get down to business! Dragon and Mario, I want a good, clean fight to the finish and remember, have fun out there. There is no time limit for this showdown, so give it all you got. OK?"

"Got it!" We replied at the same time.

Mush agreed with them and said, "Very well, then! Dragon and Mario, take your positions!"

We agreed with Mush as we took our fighting positions. Then Mush took out his whistle and said, "Now before we get started, let's do a few thankful moments on this Thanksgiving Day. Mario, what are you thankful for?"

"I'm thankful for my friends, my enemies, kart racing, and everyone who is part of the family." Mario replied with a huge smile.

Mush agreed with him and said, "OK, then! Dragon, how about you?"

"I'm thankful for everyone who is reading this and of course, my family and friends." I replied as the crowd cheered for me. Then I said, "OK Mush, your turn!"

Mush smiled and said, "I'm thankful for this arena, my sister Jolene, and to my favorite fighters in today's battle, Dragon and Mario! Group hug, guys?"

"GROUP HUG!" We replied as we hugged each other with the crowd cheering for us. Then Mush said, "Well, now that we shared our group hug, shall we start this battle?"

"YES!" We replied at the same time.

Mush agreed with us and said, "Alright then, here we go! Ready..."

We took our battle stances, waiting for the whistle to blow.

Mush held the whistle up to his lips, waited for a few seconds, and then...

It's time.

TWEET!

With the whistle blown, we rushed towards each other. The battle is now underway as Mush said, "And here we go! The Thanksgiving battle is now underway as both fighters make their first move. I love a friendly showdown on this Thanksgiving Day."

As we continued on with the battle, Mush said, "Dragon Puncher and Mario are evenly matched and the crowd is enjoying this amazing showdown. I guess I better finish this story for now since Dragon and Mario are still battling. Everyone, have a very happy Thanksgiving and thank you for being part of this. You're the best. Well... HAPPY THANKSGIVING!"

And so, everyone is having fun on this Thanksgiving Day, even Mush and the fighters.
