The audience cheered wildly as they focused their attention on the spotlight shining on the entrance curtain, awaiting the first fighter to make his or her entrance.
Everyone suddenly heard the music played getting replaced. The new music sounded like a upbeat, tribal-style music played with nothing but bongos.
“And now, to start the fight.” SSBFreak announced into his mic. “The fighter that drew number one…”
The curtain was pulled aside as the first fighter made his way onto the ramp.
“MUDMAN!” (WH)
Mudman leapt out from behind the curtain and danced around for a few seconds, playing to the cheering crowd. Once he was done, Mudman tore down the entrance ramp and leapt into the ring.
“Funny how the first fighter in the second tournament was the last World Hero from the first.” Tinyrocket commented.
“I find it too much of a coincidence.” Unknown1 mused, casting a suspicious glare at SSBFreak.
“What?” SSBFreak insisted.
Seeing as he was the first and only one in the ring, Mudman used the time he had alone to dance some more, going around the ring and pumping his fists into the air.
(Sound Booth)
“You guys ready to have some fun again?” Shadow asked the friends he had met back in the first tournament.
“You bet!” Aila laughed. “Boy, this is going to be even better than last year!”
Astaroth, by far he largest of the three, was looking over the list of fighters. “Hey, Shadow!” He said as he reached for a stack of CD’s.
“Yeah?”
“Put the first song on this CD on!” The titan replied, handing Shadow a CD.
“You found one already, eh?” The black hedgehog asked with a smirk.
(The Arena)
After a few seconds, Mudman heard his music fade away. The tribal chief turned his huge mask towards the entrance curtain, where the fighter than drew number two was coming out.
“EARTHQUAKE!” (SS)
(When I walk out…To get the mail…)
(It measures on…The Richter Scale…)
(Down at the beach…I’m a lucky man…)
(I’m the only one…Who gets a tan…)
(If I have one more…Pie a`la mode…)
(I’m gonna need…My own zip code…)
The immensely-huge bandit came out and lumbered down to the ring, laughing at the smaller form of Mudman. He was so wrapped up in his thoughts of victory that he seemed oblivious to the fact that Weird Al was blaring through the speakers (and that Shadow, Astaroth & Aila were doubling over in laughter up in the Sound Booth).
(When you’re only having seconds, I’m a-having twenty-thirds)
(When I go to get my shoes shined, I gotta take their word)
(Because I’m fat! I’m fat! Come on!)
(I’m fat! I’m fat! You know it!)
(Because I’m fat! I’m fat! Come on! Ya know!)
(And my shadow weighs a-forty-two pounds! Let me tell you once again!)
(Who’s fat?!)
“Face it, shorty! You won’t be able to beat someone of my size!” Earthquake taunted.
“I beg to differ.” Mudman said as he jumped into the air and kicked Earthquake in the face.
“KULA DIAMOND!” (KOF)
Once again, Kula had ‘Winter Wonderland’ coming from the speakers. However, Kula didn’t seem to be as happy or determined as she was last year.
“Well, THIS stinks.” Kula said to herself as she slowly skated down to the ring on a patch of ice. “None of my friends come out for a while and I was hoping I would get a better draw.”
Kula sighed as she jumped into the arena. There was nothing she could do about her predicament, now, so she decided to make the best of it. The instant Kula landed in the ring, she raced over to the fight Mudman and Earthquake were having. Diving onto the canvas and creating another patch of ice, Kula slid underneath Earthquake’s massive legs and jumped up in between the two fighters, kicking off Mudman’s mask and giving Earthquake’s face a good punch. This earned her a cheer from the crowd.
“BAKURYU!” (BR)
The young ninja stood outside the curtain, arms folded. He stood there for a few seconds before launching himself down the ramp. Once he reached the end up the ramp, Bakuryu leapt into the air, a flash of white light blinding everyone that was looking at him.
When Bakuryu landed, he was no longer a teenage boy, but instead a giant mole wearing a ninja outfit. Bakuryu threw himself at the biggest threat in the ring. Right now, that was Earthquake. Bakuryu dug his mole-like claws into the giant’s back.
Feeling something striking his back, Earthquake looked over his shoulder and saw Bakuryu repeatedly throwing punches into his back. Earthquake turned around in annoyance.
“Get away from me, fuzz-face!” He roared as he gave Bakuryu a hard backhand, sending him flying into one of the four turnbuckles at the corner of the ring.
“TRIDENT!” (EC)
To say the Atlantean merman didn’t like his chances would be an understatement. Trident was coming out in the first section, and there were already some fierce-looking fighters in the ring. He could only hope that he could last at least a few minutes.
Trident took to the ring and looked around for a fight. He saw that Bakuryu, having just been thrown into a turnbuckle, was the only one without an opponent, so he made his way over.
Bakuryu turned back into his human form and saw Trident coming over. “Can I help you?” He asked.
Trident gave his reply. Unfortunately, it was in his Atlantean tongue, so Bakuryu couldn’t understand it.
Although confused as to what Trident had just said, Bakuryu had a pretty good idea. “I take it you’re looking for a fight.”
Seeing that he wouldn’t get anywhere in talking, Trident nodded and got into his stance.
“Well, don’t hold back, then!” Bakuryu warned. “Here I come!”
“E. HONDA!” (SFA3)
The crowd cheered on the original fighting game sumo as he stepped out from behind the curtain. After clearing his mind, Honda walked down to the ring and stepped in, cracking his knuckles.
Once Honda got into the arena, he set his sights on Mudman, whom was recovering from a blow courtesy of Kula Diamond. Crouching low for a second, Honda smirked and flew forward in his trademark headbutt. The audience roared in approval.
Hearing the increase in cheering, Mudman turned and saw Honda flying at him headfirst (literally). Mudman didn’t get the chance to block the attack and received a painful blow to the stomach.
“Isn’t it funny?” Honda asked with a smirk. “You and I entered the same section last year, and here we are, doing it again.”
“Personally, I fail to notice the humour.” Mudman wheezed as he grasped his stomach.
“MR. GAME & WATCH!” (SSB)
The grandfather of gaming came out from behind the curtain and ran down the entrance ramp (doing his two-sprite run), jumping in and opening a black parachute in midair, opening it right in Trident’s face.
The merman staggered away from Bakuryu and glared down at the two-dimensional figure before him. Trident shouted several Atlantean sentences down at Game & Watch, and when he was finished, all the black creature did was hold up a sign with a question mark on it. Game & Watch then used said sign to whack Trident over the head.
Bakuryu looked down at the unusual form of Game & Watch, scratching his head, not really sure what to think about it.
“Ah, I guess I’ve seen stranger things.” Bakuryu reasoned as he slashed at Game & Watch with his sword.
“PERCIVAL FRAULIEN!” (S3)
“Once again, I get a bad draw.” Percival muttered as he walked down the ramp to the ring, occasionally waving to the screaming fangirls cheering him on.
Percival was really hoping he would get a better draw than he did last year. Unfortunately, that didn’t turn out to be the case. But seeing that there wasn’t anything that he could do about it now, and some of the big heavy-hitters weren’t in the ring, Percival decided to make the best of it.
Once the brown-haired knight landed in the ring, he decided to go for an easy kill. He started making his way towards Mr. Game & Watch before a stray ice attack from Kula struck him in the arm.
“Hey! Watch where you’re attacking!” Percival shouted as he drew his sword and ran at Kula.
(Paper Mario Locker Room)
“So which one of you guys is gonna come in second?” Rawk Hawk asked with a cocky smirk.
“You sound confident, dawg.” King K pointed out. “Need we remind you how ‘good’ of a draw you got?”
“Hey! Shut up, minor-leaguer!”
“Don’t talk to King K like that!” Vivian scolded, stepping in and staring down the larger form of Rawk Hawk. “He actually tried to help us with Grubba before he got caught! I didn’t see YOU trying to help us!”
“Why would I help you lot?! You humiliated me in front of my fans!” Rawk Hawk roared.
“Well, can you really blame them?!” Kooper stepped in. “With an attitude like that, I’m surprised you haven’t got ALL of the Glitz Pit fighters after you!”
“Hey, watch your mouth!” Hamma told Kooper. “Yeah, Rawk Hawk may have an attitude problem, but he’s a fantastic fighter! Hey, he beat me, Bamma and Flare without breaking a sweat!”
“Looking at you, I’m not all that surprised.” Bombette muttered, rolling her eyes.
“Say that again, bomb!”
“That’s enough! All of you!” The small frame of General Guy shouted as he stepped in between the two arguing sides. “We’re representing the same node, here! We can’t be fighting amongst ourselves when we should be saving it for our opponents!”
“Ah, shut it, shorty!” Rawk Hawk ordered.
That seemed to strike a nerve with the short Shyguy. “What was that?!” General Guy roared.
Long story short, what started out as a one-on-one turned into an all-out brawl with almost everyone in the Locker Room involved.
O’Chunks and Mimi stood away from the small crowd of Paper Mario characters, talking with Nastasia, a blue-skinned, petite woman with a pair of glasses.
“Remember what I’ve been telling you two, k?” Nastasia said.
“I don’t see what a broomstick-wielding platypus has to do with a fighting tournament…” Mimi pointed out.
“No, no. The OTHER thing I’ve been telling you.” Nastasia replied. “When you guys hit the ring, be sure to save your energy for worthy opponents. That way, the fatigue won’t weigh you down as much.”
“Don’t you worry, Nastasia.” O’Chunks grinned, his Scottish accent running thick. “Aye ‘aven’t fergotten.”
“Good to hear.” Nastasia said with a smirk. “So go win this for the team, k?”
“You bet, Nassy!” Both O’Chunks and Mimi said as one.
“Well, I’d better get back to my seat.” Nastasia said. “You two can be sure to hear me cheering you on.”
With that, Nastasia turned and left the locker room, walking down the hallway and making her way back to the bleachers.
However, as Nastasia walked down the hallway, she was unaware of the two figures that followed her…
(The Arena)
“KY KISKE!” (GG)
Ky made a quick scan of the arena as he walked down to the ring. The only ‘bad guy’ in the ring was Earthquake, so that made him the number one priority to remove from the ring. Gripping his sword in his hand, Ky rushed over to Earthquake to assist Kula.
However, Percival had seen Ky coming after taking a swing at Kula. Thinking (or not) quickly, Percival lashed out at Ky, only to have the blonde man parry it with his own sword.
“What in the world are you thinking?!” Ky demanded. “We’re on the same side!”
“Not in this tournament, we’re not.” Percival replied. “The only people I’m joining forces with are the ones from my own node, so long as it’s not Yuber.”
“So that’s how you want to play, eh?” Ky asked, getting into his stance. “Very well.”
“BENIMARU NIKAIDO!” (KOF)
The ladies couldn’t believe their luck. Now they had Percival, Ky and Benimaru in the arena all at once. Every teenaged girl in the audience was going nuts for the three prettyboys.
“Looks like I’m popular with the ladies, tonight.” Benimaru said as he ran a hand through his hair, surging it with electricity and making it stand on end.
Benimaru landed in the ring and decided to go over and challenge Bakuryu, whom had just sent Mr. Game & Watch flying into Earthquake’s back (it was unknown if Earthquake even felt it).
“You look pretty tough.” Benimaru commented as he approached the young ninja. “How about a fight?”
“It’s the first section and you’re already looking to be eliminated.” Bakuryu smirked and got into his stance. “Let’s see what you’ve got.”
“NEI!” (S3)
Waving to the crowd and shaking a couple of hands, the aqua-haired elf girl walked down to the ring and carefully stepped in, looking around to see where she should go first.
“This shouldn’t be too hard.” Nei mused. “I just need to avoid the potential challenges so I can stay fresh and last longer.”
Nei got about three steps into the ring when E. Honda flew past, crashing backfirst into a turnbuckle. Nei spun her head to look in the direction Honda had come from and saw Mudman stampeding over.
Nei’s eyes widened and she gulped, slowly getting into a stance. “Okay. Maybe this’ll be harder than I thought…”
“LILLITH AENSLAND!” (DS)
The purple-haired, young-looking fighter came out with a wide grin, waving to the crowd as she skipped down to the ring. Once she reached the bottom of the ramp, Lillith leapt in and quickly kicked Ky in the back of the head. This distracted the blonde long enough for Percival to take control of the sword-fight, striking Ky in the forehead with the handle of his weapon.
“Double-teaming…This is simply unforgivable!” Ky shouted as a glint appeared in his eye. “Okay. If that’s how it’s going to be, I shall hold nothing back when vanquishing the both of you!”
(KOF Locker Room)
“Hey, Chang?”
“Yeah, Choi?”
“That guy sorta reminds me of someone.” Choi said, pointing at the monitor they were watching the fight on.
The mistmatched friends looked at each other, then to their right, when Kim was talking with the Bogard brother. Kim looked at his students, saw them looking at him, and waved. Chang and Choi looked at each other again, scratching their respective heads.
(The Arena)
“ADAM MCCLOUD!” (TFS)
His red cape wafting in the air behind him, the first TFS representative raced down to the ring and leapt in, landing on his feet and drawing two pistols, aiming them at Earthquake and Trident.
“Take this!” Adam shouted as he fired his guns, making the non-lethal ammunition (as SSBFreak had once again banned the use of the lethal ammunition) shoot from the barrels of his guns and go directly at their respective targets.
However, Trident spun around at the last second and struck the bullet flying at him with his small trident, sending it flying into a light above the arena and shattering it.
(Announcer’s Booth)
“Great. We’re just going into the first section and already we’ve got damages.” Unknown1 sighed.
(The Arena)
“KAGEMARU!” (VF)
Using his ninja skills, Virtua Fighter’s resident ninja teleported above the ring, leaving a log sitting at the entrance curtain where he had previously been standing. Kagemaru fell down and landed upright, two feet in front of Adam.
Although taken aback at the sight of Kagemaru dropping down from out of nowhere, Adam asked the obvious. “Uh…May I help you?” He asked.
“I simply desire one thing. A fight.” Kagemaru replied. “Please allow me to see if you’re a worthy enough opponent.”
“You don’t know me, pal.” Adam said with a smirk. “I’ll show you what I can do.”
Suddenly, the spotlight was focused on the entrance curtain again, although not a lot of people noticed it.
“And now, Mystery Fighter…Number…One!” SSBFreak announced into his mic.
“MICKEY ROGERS!” (Art of Fighting 2)
The first Mystery Fighter came out to a surprised crowd. Mickey took the shock as a good thing and charged down the ramp leading to the arena, leaping in.
Mickey felt so good about being invited back to the Megamix Tournament for a second shot that he felt like he could take on the biggest threat in the arena. Thus, he went straight for Ky.
(Announcer’s Booth)
“Whoa. Mickey’s really getting pounded down there.” Tinyrocket noted.
Unknown1 cast another dark glare at SSBFreak. “WHY did you invite him back?!” He asked.
SSBFreak smirked. “I always figure that it’s best to send the fodder out first when it comes to the Mystery Fighters.” He explained.
(The Arena)
“CODY!” (SFA3)
Ky looked away from the beating he was handing Mickey Rogers and saw Cody’s prison garb. Getting the wrong idea, Ky looked down at Mickey. “I’d love to continue this, but I have more important matters to tend to.
As Ky left, Mickey, laying on the canvas, stuck his thumb into the air. “No…Problem…” He wheezed.
“Halt!” Ky ordered Cody as the former hero of Metro City stepped into the ring. “From the looks of things, you seem to be an escaped convict!”
“Why is it whenever I go to one of these things, I always get mistaken for a convict?” Cody asked himself before turning to Ky. “Look, prettyboy. I’ve made mistakes in my life that I’m none too proud of, but that’s in the past. So won’t you please leave me be?”
“So if you’re not an escaped convict, why are you wearing that garb?” Ky asked.
“It’s more comfortable.” Cody shrugged.
(Dome; Restaurant)
Having left the Paper Mario Locker Room once the heated argument started, the Koopinator found himself at the restaurant to relax for a bit. After all, he wasn’t scheduled to enter the arena for a bit.
Currently, the Koopinator had taken some rare time-off from his training and was having a cup of Koopa Tea. The dark koopatrol quietly sat in his chair, savoring the soothing feel of the Koopa Tea as it poured down his throat.
“I’m glad I got out of there when I did.” The Koopinator mused to himself. “If I had stayed in that Locker Room any longer, my IQ might have dropped.”
The Koopinator lifted his cup to his mouth and was about to take another sip when his red eyes opened. He looked suspiciously out the doorway of the restaurant, giving him a clear view of the hallway outside.
“Strange…” The Koopinator mused. “An unusually dark aura.”
Deciding to check things out, the Koopinator stood up and slowly crept towards the doorway. When he got close, he saw the petite Nastasia wander by.
“No. Her aura’s not dark.” The Koopinator mused.
Suddenly, two more figures passed the doorway, clearly following Nastasia. Having done research, the Koopinator recognized the two as Vega and Birdie from the Street Fighter node.
Somehow knowing what the two were up to, the Koopinator decided to step in, leaving the restaurant as Vega and Birdie passed. “Hold it right there, scum.”
Vega and Birdie stopped for a second, but Nastasia didn’t notice and kept walking.
“You go after her.” Birdie ordered. “I’ll deal with this guy.”
“Try not to take too long.” Vega responded as he resumed chase after Nastasia.
“What seems to be the problem?” Birdie asked innocently.
“You know exactly what the problem is.” The Koopinator said darkly. “Scum like you make me sick.”
“Sounds like you’re aching for a beating, pal.” Birdie said, cracking his knuckles. “Well, I’m certainly not one to turn down a request.”
The Koopinator got into a stance. Maybe he’d be able to squeeze some training in, after all…
(The Arena)
“FALCO LOMBARDI!” (SSB)
The hotshot of the Star Fox Team came out to a loud cheer. After spinning his blaster in his hand, Falco raced down to the ring and jumped in headfirst, where he spun in midair and landed gracefully on his feet.
Falco instantly shot at Ky a few times with his blaster. Ky saw the laser shots coming and managed to block two of the shots with his blaster, but the third one slammed into his shoulder. Ky dropped to his knee and gripped his injury.
Falco smirked. “Heh. Already I got an easy elimination.” He said to himself as he ran forward to boot Ky from the ring.
Suddenly, Ky sprang to life and lashed out with his sword.
“Okay. Maybe not.” Falco mused.
“ANDREW!” (SS)
The newest member to the Samurai Showdown gang came out from behind the curtain, his rifle in his bayonet in his hand. Andrew marched down to the ring and stepped in, scanning the ring for any potential opponents.
Andrew ended up setting his sights on Earthquake, whom was currently attempting to get Mr. Game & Watch out from the folds in his back. Andrew, seeing the giant distracted, rushed over.
Unfortunately, Earthquake saw him coming and abandoned his attempts to get the two-dimensional figure out of his back, lashing out with his weapon instead.
“G. DONE!” (GF)
“HAYATE!” (KE)
The street fighter of the Galaxy Fight node and the main hero of the Kizuna Encounter node came out together and walked down to the ring, G. Done going a bit slower so he was just behind Hayate.
The instant Hayate was in the arena, G. Done sprang to life, leaping in behind him and landing a kick to his back. The audience cheered at G. Done’s strategy.
Hayate quickly recovered from G. Done’s attack and growled. “So that’s how you want to play, huh?” He asked as he reached for the huge boomerang-like weapon on his back. “Okay.”
Percival saw the two fighting and saw them as easy eliminations, running over.
“CRYSTAL KING!” (PM)
Everyone that wasn’t into Paper Mario stared in amazement. Save for a pair of yellow eyes, Crystal King was completely invisible, but was wearing a blue robe and crown made of crystal on his unseen head.
Crystal King stepped into the arena and wisely avoided the scuffle between G. Done and Hayate (although he purposefully tripped Percival on his way over to eliminate them to have a laugh). Looking around, he saw Kula without a fight.
Although no one noticed, Crystal King smirked. “Perfect.” He said as he made his way over to the ice girl.
“ACE!” (S3)
The self-proclaimed ladies-man of Geddoe’s team felt a little let-down. The only women in the ring were Nei, Kula and Lillith, and they were all too young for him.
“Well, I guess the only thing I can do is wait for an older woman to come out.” Ace reasoned as he drew his sai and stepped into the ring.
The first thing he did was get Mudman off Nei’s back, kicking him away. The elf girl sighed in relief. “Thanks, Ace.” She said.
“No problem.” Ace nodded. He saw Percival getting beat down by Hayate and G. Done. “You think we should go over and help him?”
“I’m sure he’ll be fine on his own.” Nei reasoned.
“Is he even aware that we’re in the ring?”
“Probably not.”
“HEAT MAN!” (MM)
Heat Man stood outside the entrance curtain, eyeing the ring. A sly smirk floated across his face as he ignited himself in fire, resulting in a loud cheer from the crowd.
Without a word, Heat Man rocketed into the ring and shot straight for Kula Diamond. The blue-haired girl, while she was fighting Crystal King, turned and saw Heat Man coming and acted quickly, gathering up as much power as she could.
As soon as Heat Man got close, Kula thrust her hands out and firing a beam of ice at his head, halting him in midair. It took a fair amoutn of effort, but Kula managed to hold Heat Man off until he brought himself out of his attack.
Crystal King watched the display, impressed. “I never thought you were capable of such a feat.” He told Kula. “I’m not easily impressed, but that was something else.”
“ROY!” (SSB)
Once again, the fangirls went wild. Roy surged his sword with fire and ran down to the arena, smirking the entire way.
“Let’s see. A sword fight sounds good right about now.” He said as he looked around for someone with a sword.
Seeing G. Done and Hayate beating down Percival, Roy jumped in to assist the brown-haired knight, kicking both attackers away and helping Percival to his feet.
“Having a bit of bad luck?” Roy asked with a smirk.
Percival growled. “Yeah. I don’t see how.” He replied.
“Well, how about a fight?” Roy asked again.
“Sure. Why not?”
(Street Fighter Locker room)
“Honda looks like he’s having a bit of trouble.” Sakura noted. “That tribal man seems to be laying the ‘smack-down’ on him.”
“Cody’s in the ring. He’ll help him out once he gets the chance.” Guy assured.
As most of the gang was watching the fight, Chun Li looked around, then turned to Guile. “You notice that we haven’t seen Bison or his goons all night?” She asked suspiciously.
“Yeah. I don’t like it, either.” Guile added. “You think he’s up to something?”
“I wouldn’t be surprised.” Chun Li replied.
“You think we should go search for him?” Guile asked.
“I don’t think we’ll have time right now. I think we’ll have to wait until we’re both eliminated from the tournament.”
Meanwhile, Dee Jay left the group of people watching the fight. “I’m gonna go grab a snack at the restaurant, guys.” He told everyone. “I’ll be back in about ten minutes.”
With that, Dee Jay left the Locker Room and started his trek to the dome restaurant, unknowing of what was going on nearby.
(The Arena)
“BLUE MARY RYAN!” (FF)
Ace’s eyes lit up as he turned to the entrance ramp and saw Mary running down to the ring, waving to the crowd as she did so. The patchwork-clad mercenary approached Mary once she landed in the ring.
“Hey, baby! You free tomorrow night?” Ace asked.
Mary stood in silence for a couple of seconds before kicking Ace in the head.
“Ignoring the fact that I’m Terry Bogard’s girlfriend, why would I wanna go out with a womanizer?” Mary asked, narrowing her eyes.
(Suikoden Locker Room)
“Great. Now we’re going to have Terry Bogard after us.” Geddoe sighed.
(The Arena)
“CHIN GENSAI!” (KOF)
“SHUN DI!” (VF)
The audience watched in awe as two old drunks wobbled down to the ring. Chin reached the end of the ramp first and tripped into the arena, falling flat on his face. Shun Di followed suite, falling off the ramp backwards and landing on Chin.
G. Done looked away from the fight he and Hayate were having and looked at his opponent. “Should we go over and boot them from the arena now or wait until they’re sober?” He asked.
Once again, the spotlight was shining directly onto the entrance curtain. This meant that another Mystery Fighter was entering.
“And now, Mystery Fighter…Number…Two!” This time it was Unknown1 to make the announcement.
“SERVBOT!” (Marvel vs. Capcom 2)
“Why couldn’t I come out in the same section as Ms. Tron?!” The lone (and tiny) Servbot shouted at the Announcer’s Booth as he walked down to the ring and stepped in.
The Servbot walked around the various fights erupting around him as he walked towards Earthquake. Making a propellor come from his head, the Servbot floated up to the spot where Mr. Game & Watch was still stuck in his back. Grabbing hold of the gaming veteran’s leg, the Servbot pulled with all of his might, managing to get Mr. Game & Watch unstuck. Both short figures landed on the canvas with a dull thud.
“Boy. I don’t think I wanna do that again.” The Servbot said just before Mr. Game & Watch hit him in the head with a mallet.
“MAY!” (GG)
(Cause we’re the pirates who don’t do anything!)
(We just stay home and lie around!)
(And if you ask us to do anything!)
(We’ll just tell you…)
(We don’t do anything!)
The cheery pirate girl gleefully ran down the ramp leading into the arena and leapt in, holding the anchor she used as a weapon underneath her, aiming herself for the huge mound of fat that was Earthquake.
May’s aim was perfect and she landed directly on top of Earthquake. For the first time the entire section, Earthquake was literally brought to the canvas.
Naturally, May found this funny. “Oh, boy! I never miss!” She said.
Earthquake got up, pushing May off of him. “Why, you little shrimp!” He roared in anger.
“And now, the final fighter of this section…” Tinyrocket announced.
“ZERO!” (MM)
The fangirls were once again going nuts.
Nervously rubbing the back of his head at the sight of all of the screaming teenage girls, Zero made his way down to the ring, brandishing his Z Saber.
Adam McCloud saw him enter and smirked, putting open of his guns away and pulled out a beam sword of his own. Pushing Kagemaru away, Adam turned and rushed over to Zero, preparing to attack with the beam sword in his hand.
Unfortunately, Zero had much better hearing than the average human and heard the TFS resident coming from behind. Spinning in place, Zero swung his Z Saber down, parrying a potential attack from Adam.
“I’m afraid that was a mistake.” Zero said.
“Hey. I got your attention, didn’t I?” Adam asked with a smirk.
“Okay, so you’re looking for a fight.” Zero said, narrowing his eyes. “You’re on!”
