Private/Closed Bootleg Bros: Melee

[DevVoid]

The Terrarian teleported a few feet away from Kirby, behind him, to get out of his view. They put away the Slap Hand and the Rod of Discord, swapping for their fourth potion; The Regeneration Potion. It would add a mere 2 extra regen on the Terrarian's passive health regen.

The Terrarian had then swapped for a strange looking flail, with what looked like a cyan pig-dragon-fish hybrid head for a..well, head part, which more resembled the head of Duke Fishron. The Terrarian swung the Flairon back before using it like a whip, lashing it out at Kirby from behind.

The Flail soared almost silently through the air, rapidly creating damaging bubbles along its way that wouldn't stay long but would home in as soon as Kirby would get close to them. The Terrarian had tried to hook the puffball with the Flairon's head, and then drag him all the way through the bubbles to try and throw him off-stage. @Gamingfan

 

[Gamingfan]

Kirby looked around after the terrarian disappeared. He was confused for a bit, until he realized where teleporters typically go. Sure enough, he turned to see a decapitated head being swung right at him. Surprised, Kirby jumped back, avoiding one swing, before realizing the bubbles homing in on him. Bubbles looked quite innocent, but Kirby was aware about how dangerous they could be. He jumped over another swing and, ignoring the sting of the bubbles, grabbed onto the chain, pulling it backwards, while keeping his sword at the ready.

 

[Psymallard]

Tabby's arm was struck, and he blasted a hair off Shepard's head. He used the momentum of his arm being smacked to the side to spin around to where he faced the human again, and deflected the bullets that came his way. Then an explosion. Tabby was thrown up into the air and dazed, but shook it off before he could begin to fall. He threw out a kunai at the ceiling and hung by the attached rope. In a flash, he had swapped out the SMG for his rocket launcher. He could blow stuff up too. He fired off a rocket, then began to charge the weapon.
@ThAtGuY101

The puffball was still coming, so Psyduck jumped in front of the weapons. "Duuuuck!" He roared, reattempting fury swipes while dashing at his opponent.

“Oh?”

Specter looked at the roster, Sonic’s name fading to black. Folding his fingers together, Specter called to Eggman.

“Doctor, is that not your great annoyance knocked out of commission? If so...seems like both of our issues have already been defeated handily.”

What a positive turn of events! Kei and Sonic both out, while Specter and Eggman remained. Nothing would be able to stop them from winning now.

 

[Captain Pokémon]

Eggman looked back at the board, and, sure enough, Sonic's name faded to black,meaning he was defeated. "What?!" Eggman exclaimed, quickly leaning forward with his hands on the front of the Eggmobile's cockpit. He then grinned maliciously. He chuckled. "Excellent!" He said while twisting his mustache. "At this rate, nothing can stop us from achieving sweet victory!" He said and pumped a fist.

Metal made a surprised beep and took a step back as Sonic's name faded away. His 'pupils' constricted, showing a sign of anger. No. No! HE was supposed to be the one to defeat Sonic! Not that black haired teenager! Sonic was disposed of relatively quickly too! Did this mean he simply wasn't good enough? No! He was strong, far stronger than Sonic! Sonic was just weak! It's no surprise he lost! Metal kept thinking to himself.

[DarkHydraT]

Looking at the portal, Drogoz sighed. He really hoped to get further in the tournament, but he was simply no match for Gunvolt. He stepped through the portal and was back in his lair, and all he had gotten from that tournament was two gold coins and a broken wing. Adding the coins to the pile of gold, the Wyrin took his pack off and began repairing it. Without that wish, he'd have to get back to taking job offers. "And just when I thought I was ready to retire."

-------------

M.Bison did not expect the Thousand Spears attack and it showed as his sleeves got torn to shreds and a couple of cuts appeared on his body. "Enough!" Spreading his arms, a forcefield of Psycho Power deflected the remaning polearms and kept the dictator from becoming a shish kebab. Psycho Warping behind Olberic, he put his hand right next to his head and unleashed a large Psycho Power explosion. "Psycho Blast!" It would not be a killing blow, but it should at the very least hamper the swordsman if not countered in time. @Psymallard

 

[DevVoid]

The Terrarian had drank their fifth and final potion while the Flairon was extending out; The Titan Potion, which increases knockback given by The Terrarian to others by an additional 50%.

When Kirby pulled the chain back, The Terrarian waited, letting themselves be pulled. They took out the Slap Hand in their other hand. As soon as he would come close enough, he would do a simple maneuver; If Kirby attacks or even comes too close, fly behind him. Then, launch Kirby from behind with the Slap Hand. It was a simple, yet effective move should it successfully work. @Gamingfan

 

[ThAtGuY101]

~Sly Cooper...~

Sly stomped his foot on the ground ,but then yelped as his foot still hurt. "Very well... You won this time cowboy, with a big iron on his hip... Now... How am I supposed to get my cane back?!" Sly said. Sly walked towards the edge of the arena. He looked down ,and to be fair, he had no motive for wanting to win the tournament anyways. Sly didn't need any wishes granted. He already had the best prize he could ever want back at home. "Yo! Mr. handy dandy! Get my staff will ya? Thanks. Catch ya later Courier" Sly said before pinching his nose ,and leaping like he were about to go for a swim.

~Johnny Cage...~

Johnny performed a 180 degree crescent kick to block the swift strike, and performed a backflip to dodge the shuriken. He jumped back to avoid the next shuriken attack, then rolled to the side to avoid the second ,and threw a volley of punches to deflect the remainder of shuriken. Johnny used a red shadow kick to close the gap between him and Genji. A red trail was left behind. Johnny followed up this attack with a rising star. (A knee attack to knock the opponent in the air followed by a downward kick).

~Commander John Shepard...~

as Shepard saw Tabby fire his rocket launcher, Shepard quickly fired his shotgun at tabby to hit the rocket to cause it to explode before it even got near him. Commander Shepard had faced similar weapons ,and knew what to do. He used pull(another biotic ability) to pull Tabby in. Commander Shepard had now switched for his shotgun. Shepard several rounds before going for a sword thrust.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Suddenly, as if on cue, The cane of Sly’s had materialized right over his head without any sound. It would fall and bonk him on the head without any notice, just accenting how little the hand cared about his predicament and how much he cared little for minor requests such as this. with another fight over, that left three more to go...

 

[Captain Pokémon]

Genji jumped back, then jumped again in midair to avoid Johnny's attack. Genji then used swift strike to get in close, then threw a fan of shurikens at Johnny's chest, then a precise line of shurikens at his head, then he turned around and used swift strike again to get away from Johnny before he could attack. He then threw 3 fans of shurikens at Johnny just for good measure.
@ThAtGuY101

 

[Gamingfan]

Kirby paused his pulling, see the terrarian pull his slap hand out...again. Kirby backed up a bit, leaving a little more of the flail left, before pulling it overhead, planning on slamming the terrarian into the floor.

 

[Nukas]

Bowie
Bowie started to come off of his high from what Masaru told him, still not fully grasping the fact that it was going to be some kind of trial for his world. He glanced over to Blob who was also just as excited. "Alright, I don't know just how similar our worlds are, but seeing as schools seem to be shut down in your world, I bet some other stuff was too. Meanwhile, my world still has all of its stores, including ice cream shops and stands. We also have snow cones and Italian Ice, and that's just the sweet stuff I can think of off the top of my head. Of course, this is all dependent on you winning this crazy thing. Who do you think your next opponent will be anyway?" Bowie looked over to the bracket where it seemed to show that Masaru's opponent was still undecided.

Bandana Dee
Bandana Dee saw The DuckTM Jump in front of the spear he was gunning for. While this was an unfortunate situation, it's not like Dee was completely useless without his spear. Bandana Dee did a flip backward in order to avoid the oncoming flurry of swipes getting scratched on the foot on the way. His injuries were starting to pile up, but so far he was still in good enough shape to take down Psyduck. Once he assumed the move was over, he ran straight at Psyduck, hoping to barrel through him with a full forced tackle.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Masaru hadn’t even thought of that! They probably have all the good stuff open! It’s been ages since he went to an actual candy store, and he always wanted to try one of those Chocolate emporiums. But the despair movement had already DESTROYED all the local ones, like what gives with that?? Still salivating at the thought of this new Oyster of a world, he was snapped back to reality by Bowie’s question.

“Huh? Of COURSE I’m gonna win, how can I NOT? The competition ain’t got nothin’ on me, and I don’t care who my next fight is! Whoever fights me is going down like a chump, and that’s all there is to it! They’d have to get a Bajillion times stronger before they get on my level!”

 

[Psymallard]

Olberic noticed the danger, but couldn't react in time and was blasted many feet away. In a heap on the ground, the knight popped a healing grape, and stood once more. This fight was going unfavorably, so Olberic was going to at least balance the scales with his next attack. He brought out his sword as well as his spear, and ran at the dictator. Once coming within a good range, Olberic used Thousand spears once more, although not really aiming at him, more so to make him more comfortable in the spot he's in by missing his attacks. Then, once the right time came, Olberic tossed his spear. Now gripping his blade with both hands, he used Brand's Thunder, a vertical slash that released a wave of energy that tore up the ground beneath it.
@DarkHydraT

Tabby was pulled by a mysterious force, which ripped his kunai out of the ceiling. He dodged through and around the shotgun blasts, even deflecting some pellets with the side of the rocket launcher. When Shepard went in for a blade strike, Tabby dashed through him, when the rocket launcher created a satisfying ping, and Tabby let loose a barrage of homing missiles.
@ThAtGuY101

Psyduck was struck in the gut, and bounced back into the spears. Dazed, the duck got to his feet and looked at the spears. He had an idea.
@Nukas

 

[Nukas]

Bowie
Bowie was about to point out that he was almost able to beat Masaru with Blob's help but thought better of it since right now Masaru was in a good mood. "Hey, I know first hand how strong you are. Even without Mark Guyver, your strength is something to behold. I'm just saying that it seems like there are a lot of strong competitors in this tournament. I've seen a few fighters pass by who look absolutely adorable, not as cute as Blob, but still cute; however, the fact that they were invited must mean they are strong. All of this to say, be careful. Blob and I will be rooting for you all the way." Blob jumped into Bowie's arms and smiled, obviously giving Masaru his own seal of approval.

Bandana Dee
Bandana Dee was sure he had Psyduck now. The tackle on The DuckTM had positioned Dee right next to the field of spears. He picked one up, making sure not to throw it since he wasn't sure when he would get his power back. He approached Psyduck and looked at him. He looked for any sign of malice, but instead, he just looked like a hurt animal... or maybe it looked confused? Honestly, his expression was kind of neutral, but that didn't change the fact that Dee didn't feel malice. Maybe he misunderstood that starting charge. After the fight was over he'd have to try and make up with him, but right now there was cake on the line. Bandana Dee readied his spear and jabbed it straight in Psyduck's direction.

 

[DarkHydraT]

M. Bison laughed as Olberic got knocked down and tried the Thousand Spears attack again. "Get lost, you are nothing compared to my powers!" The thrown spear was deflected by a Psycho Burst, only amusing Bison. "How cute, but cuteness won't help you win this fight." Olberic seemingly heard him as a vertical slash was sent flying his way. The dictator's arrogance made him stand his ground, deciding to face the attack head on. "Psycho Burst!" The forcefield once again appeared, but the attack was not deflected. Quite the contrary, it kept colliding with the forcefield as the kinetic energy made its way through Bison's arms and legs. Casting arrogance aside for a moment, the head of Shadaloo knew that Brand's Thunder would break through his Psycho Burst eventually and he was not granting Olberic that satisfaction. Quickly rolling to the side, he dropped the force field after being out of harm's way and let an arm hang down. Brand's Thunder in conjunction with the injuries gotten from Thousand Spears was too much for him to keep using the arm without feeling pain.

"So, kitten's got claws. Impressive, but you still ruined my temple! Don't you expect to get away with that, peasant!" Warping to one of the two statues in the temple, he delivered a Psycho Power-infused knee strike to send the statue flying towards Olberic as a jolt of pain surged through his body. This fight had to be won fast. @Psymallard

 

[Psymallard]

Olberic was achieving good hits, and although Brand's Thunder didn't finish it, the move was worthwhile. Now his enemy's arm was out of commission for the most part. The dictator launched a statue at Olberic, which he replied with a Level Slash that extended his blade's slice, which broke the statue in two. He was running low on spirit, so he bit into an inspiriting plum (also one per match). The knight then decided to run to his spear, as to have more options in another engagement.
@DarkHydraT

Psyduck dodged the poke oh so gracefully, by shifting his balance to the right and smacking another spear in the ground. The staff part bent under his weight, and Psyduck grabbed the spear behind it, before being slung a few feet back, with the two spears landing on either side of his head. Scrambling to his webbed feet once more, the duck plucked the weapons out of the ground, dual wielding them. He turned dramatically, and pointed one weapon at Dee, before making a throat-cutting gesture. "Psyyy... dUCK!" He charged, water gun spraying everywhere and spears flailing wildly. (Disable should be gone now)
@Nukas

 

[DarkHydraT]

M. Bison noted that Olberic had swapped to his spear and decided to take his shot. One arm might be painful, but the rest of his limbs were still in working order. Running at his adversary, he leapt into the air and prepared to stomp down upon Olberic's head. Spears had more reach than swords, but they were also much harder to quickly manouver from one position to the next and he planned to abuse it. Should the Head Press go off without a hitch, he could easily get out of immediate danger with a backflip whilst he could use the Devil Reverse in case of the spear pointing straight up. His aerial mobility was something not many people expected and they often paid the price for their ignorance. He'd find out soon enough if Olberic would join that list. @Psymallard

 

[Psymallard]

Olberic blocked the stomp with the side of the spear, but still felt the impact go through his body and cracking the ground beneath him. The knight pushed back, in an attempt to get some distance between them. He readjusted his spear, then used Spearhead, a stab that also gave him a short burst of speed. Using that burst, Olberic swapped to a sword and began swinging.
@DarkHydraT

 

[DarkHydraT]

Stomping down on the spear and getting a boost from Olberic himself, M.Bison backflipped through the air and assessed the situation. The knight had returned to his sword and was charging at him with considerable speed, but the dictator just smirked. Staring at Olberic with eyes and teeth as white as a girl ordering a pumpkin spice latte at a Starbucks, he waited until Olberic was within range before unleashing a large blast of Psycho Energy. It would not be able to block any attacks, but it was not meant for it. It was meant to hurt anyone caught within the blast as Bison warped into the sky, charging Psycho Energy in his good hand before engulfing himself in Psycho Power and performing a Psycho Crusher aimed at the midsection of Olberic. It was, quite literally, the Ultimate Psycho Crusher and a move that has spelled doom for many opponents. Olberic was tougher than most of them, not really based on damage but on durability, given the man was still standing after so many blows. Let's see that peasant survive this! @Psymallard

 

[ThAtGuY101]

~Johnny Cage...~

Johnny sidestepped Genji's swift strike and used a red shadow uppercut. Johnny used a crescent kick to block the first shuriken fan, "More shuriken... Marvelous..." Johnny said. Johnny ducked out of the way to avoid the head shuriken ,and used a flurry of punches to deflect the three fans of shuriken. Johnny then used a red shadow kick at Genji ,and followed it up with a low sweep kick and a knee bash.

~Commander John Shepard...~

"Liara! Singularity, quick!" Shepard said. Liara appeared on the battlefield ,and lifted her arm, and waved it. A lage sphere appeared on the battlefield. The missles were pulled towards it ,and the singularity was placed close enough to Tabby that the radius of the attack should be able to pull tabby in. Shepard fired off several shotgun rounds with armor piercing ammo.

 

[DevVoid]

The Terrarian certainly was angry. They threw their flairon away and took out a bunch of explosives. Completely disregarding Kirby, the Terrarian begun flying, setting up explosives all around the stage. He wasn't gonna let himself be knocked down in his first fight. So, instead, he just did something to anger the host as much as he is.

The Terrarian, planting the final explosive, placed down a 3-second timer and a Jar with a Prismatic Lacewing inside. The Terrarian then activated the 3-second, holding up a magic mirror. They promptly disappeared, teleporting back into their own world, into blue sparkling lights while the timer ran out and the explosives were set off, the stage being obliterated and leaving Master Hand to deal with one pissed off Empress.. @Gamingfan @Shen: King of the Mist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Courier went through the gateway again, finding his stuff re-appear fully repaired, and his wounds healed. The Courier chuckled to himself and took off his mask briefly, taking out a nuka-cola to drink while he waited. [ Hehehe.. Oh Sly, if only you knew that the Nuka you stole was valuable, and that we use caps as currency in my world. Probably must've had a real shock when he realized that all he could take from me were two seemingly worthless items. ]

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

As Terrarian left his match out of sheer irritation, Master Hand descended from the Heavens with the canned cheering sounds accompanying him.

“And the winner is-!”

“REEEEEEEEEEE!!!!”

Master hand was faced with a giant woman, radiating energy off of her Colorful butterfly themed wings. The empress of light. Master hand twitched as he was met with this issue.

“You...little...”

Snapping his fingers so that Kirby would warp back to the Plaza, he gave a battle cry, darting toward the Woman and engaging in a battle of the ages...!



........


Crazy hand descended in the Plaza, laughing erratically as it shook up the Roster board, seemingly it’s way of updating it. After he was done shaking it like a mad kid shaking a vending machine, he tossed it back into it’s bobbing aerial position

The new Temporary host wriggled it’s fingers back and forth, or even offering any verbal explanation behind the matchups or any reminder like Master Hand would. It’s Crazy’s rodeo now.


.....


Masaru puffed out his chest, seeming confident with the added praise of his fellow kid. As the board began to update by means of a crazed hand, the kid flashed Bowie a smile, petting Bob with his other hand.

“No matter who fights me, imma beat ‘em down! Dontcha know a hero can never lose?! Heheh! You just watch! That wish is as good as mine!”

 

[Nukas]

Bandana Dee
Dee watched as Psyduck picked up two of his spears, seeming to challenge him. This would have worried Dee... if he didn't know how unwieldy two spears were to handle. The balance and length of a spear made dual-wielding them impractical if not impossible, especially for someone not trained in the art. This was quite evident as Psyduck started to flail the spears around without care or precision, while also shooting blasts of water. It was not the most graceful sight, but it did cause the Waddle Dee to consider his options. He decided to take his chances with the plan he came up with.

Bandana Dee helicoptered his spear to disperse an incoming water blast and used it to fly up high once more. He then stopped spinning the spear and took aim, straight at Psyduck's right hand holding one of the spears. He threw it, and then felt his power come back to him. He quickly summoned two more spears, throwing them at The DuckTM's other hand and head. Finally, as he started to fall he summoned a fourth spear to slow his descent back to the ground with another helicopter twirl.

 

[Psymallard]

Olberic blocked the Psycho Crusher, but underestimated the impact and had to take a step back. The knight pushed back with his blade with all his might, but the attack was greater in force. "I am the Unbending Blade of Hornsburg. My blade shall not falter!" Olberic yelled and equaled the attack for a few moments, then his legs began to give in. Olberic's feet were thrown out from under him, and his back was plunged into the ground, shattering the floor. Olberic was out cold, and his sword fell on his chest without a scratch.
@DarkHydraT

Psyduck's strategy somehow didn't work. His arms were sniped with spears, and another smacked into his head. In pain, the duck dropped his spears and tripped, tumbling at a high speed before skidding to a halt at Dee's feet.
@Nukas

 

[ThAtGuY101]

~Johnny Cage...~

Genji had gone for another swift attack to which Johnny met with a red shadow uppercut. Johnny unleashed a barrage of punches with his brass knuckles still on his hands. Loud clanging of Genji's wakazashi smacking against the brass knuckles could be heard. Sparks were flying ,and Johnny used a knee smash to which Genji slid back to avoid. He followed it up with a fan of shuriken to which Johnny stopped with another flurry of punches. As he blocked the punches he continues to charge forward, "Say cheese!" Johnny said. click! The camera went. "Stunt double!" Johnny said. His stunt double ran over to put the stunned Genji in a full nelson ,and Johnny dropped to the ground full splits ,and went for the nut punch. Before Johnny could finish him off ,a rather pissed off Genji threw the stunt double to the ground ,and stood up. However before Genji could react, Johnny had used a red shadow kick to finish the weakened Genji. "That was a good match. I hope to see you again in the future some time, maybe not better terms?" Johnny said cheerfully, not wanting to disrespect the ninja.

~Commander John Shepard...~

As Tabby ,and the homing missiles were pulled towards the singularity, the homing missiles exploding, to which Tabby was hit by the blast radius. As singularity began to fade away Tabby fell to the ground ,and began closing the gap to Shepard with his katana out. Shepard's omni blade met with Tabby's katana. The two swords continuously slashed before Tabby leaped back firing a smg. Shepard used a shockwave to block the bullets. As Shepard fired his assualt rifle the bullets were deflected via Tabby's sword. As Shepard shot, he used this as an oppertunity to close the gap. Shepard used nova striking the ground. After the nova hit, it was obvious that would not be enough to win, "Garrus! Use overload!" Shepard yelled. Garrus appeared ,and used overload on Tabby. After Tabby's shields were broken, Shepard used biotic charge to flash over to Tabby striking him hard enough to knock him out of the arena. "You fought well! It was an honor to fight you" Shepard said.

~Meanwhile...~

"oof!" Sly went as his staff bonked him on the head, "If that hit me in the head any harder, I might have actually gotten amnesia for real this time..." Sly said before sitting down in the stands. "Guess I'm a commentator now... sweet!" Sly said as he looked at the caps. Nuuuka cooola... Sounds like some weird off brand soda" Sly commented. Sly looked at the nuka cola quartz, "Definitely not a brand I'm familiar with ,but it glows" Sly said before putting the soda ,and caps away. He continued to watch the matches. At the very least, he could have fun watching. Too bad he couldn't enjoy his time there with Bentley, Murray ,or someone else in particular. At times like this, even Dimitri would be decent company. Maybe Drogoz is somewhere nearby. "I wonder if that lizard with that rocket launcher won his fight" Sly thought to himself.

 

[Nukas]

Bandana Dee
As Dee touched down he saw The DuckTM Tumble towards him. He was obviously hurt and Bandana didn't see how this fight could go on any longer. "Hey, I'm sorry for all of this. I realized a little late that your intention at the beginning wasn't to fight me. I was just kinda worked up at the thought that we were put against each other. You seemed so nice, but when you charged at me, I was sure you were attacking. Can we still be friends?" Dee reached out his hand as a sign of friendship to help Psyduck up. The fight was over, now he just wanted a new friend.

Bowie
"Well then, go out and win one for the kids, let's get you down to the stage to get you ready for the next fight." Bowie started to run over, gesturing for Masaru to follow. In order to keep up, Blob transformed into a balloon so he could float alongside the pair.

 

[DarkHydraT]

"Your blade might not, but you will." M. Bison sneered as Olberic went down, his trust in his blade being his undoing. "You're weak. Pathetic and weak. Let this be a warning for anyone who tries to fight me, Master Bison will not show mercy to anyone." Grabbing his cape from the ground, he put it back on before looking up. "I believe this fight is over, now where is the judge? There should be a portal around here to let me be free from the scent of useless losers. Hand, show yourself!" @Shen: King of the Mist

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Just then, Crazy Hand appeared from the sky, plummeting down in a wild *CRASH!* the hand, after making a large dent in second to last destination, wriggled and laughed, poking bison with a finger that stretched abnormally, gesturing to leave while he shooed Olberic, as if to sweep him off the stage like a broom trying to remove dust.

 

[DarkHydraT]

That was not the same hand as the one Bison saw, this one was a lot more erratic. Were there two of them or did the hand suffer from a mental breakdown? It was none of Bison's problems and he left the scene without casting a glance back at the Unbending Blade of Hornsberg, thinking of him as nothing more than a bug on his path to glory. The board had updated, his next opponent was someone called Masaru Daimon. The dictator chuckled, Daimon huh? It sounded like demon, and he had to admit that he was a tad curious about this fighter. Not that the last name mattered, they'd get crushed by him. They all would and that wish would be his. After that, he might not even need Ryu's body anymore if he can get much stronger than the Satsui no Hado could ever reach. He'd be a legend, no, a god!

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

“Yeah, lets go!”

Masaru stood up confidently from the snack shack chair, striding over to the roster. It Read that he would fight a M...Bison? He’d be fighting a Buffalo?? It wasn’t until he looked at the picture next to the name did he realize he’d be fighting a grinning red dressed demon. He grew a confident and somewhat sadistic grin on his face. Now he didn’t have to worry about hurting a kid!

seeing that flashy white smile in the thinning crowd, he strutted boldly up to him.

“Demon! As the Hero and the Leader of the Warriors of Hope, it’s my duty to strike you dooown!”


@DarkHydraT


........


“You-hooooo!”

NiGHTS cheerfully waved at Marshadow, floating upside down. The purple jester tutored their head curiously at the ghost type fighter, offering a hand out.

“Oi, your the fighter I’m going against, right? Well lets make it a great match! If you made it this far you must be that good!”


@Gamingfan
.......



“...Hm...appears that the rounds are starting.”

Glancing up at the matches, Specter payed little mind to his new foe. He hadn’t expected much from him, as he already psychoanalyzed him from the first few minutes he had arrived here. A fun wielder, shouldn’t be too bad. Considering he only defeated a raccoon with a curved stick, it wasn’t saying much.

“Well Doctor, good luck in your battle. Remember, worry not if your foe doesn’t understand you, worry if you cannot understand them. Ciao.”

After dropping that nugget of wisdom, he closed his eyes, letting his chair float toward his foe whilst he honed it on his psychic signature.

“Courier.” Specter spoke Telepathically, opening his eyes. “I thank you for your placement in the tournament. You’ve given me further time to think about the specifics of the wish I desire. Don’t fret, I am not a sadist. It will be over before you know it.”

@DevVoid

 

[DarkHydraT]

M.Bison looked down to see who called out him. A kid. This tournament made him face a kid, it was almost an insult to him. Baring his teeth, potentially blinding everyone within a hundred feet radius, he chuckled. "Yah hya hya. Why the hurry to die so soon? Masaru Daimon, I presume? My name is Master Bison, your opponent in your next match and your downfall. I couldn't help to notice a fault in your dramatic little hero speech, as you are gravely mistaken. I'm no demon. My power has evolved beyond that level, I am a god amongst mortals. Allow me to demonstrate that to you in our match, or you could forfeit right now and we both can walk away without any quarrel. Why do you want to strike me down, anyway? Is it some kind of illusion of justice and order? Even justice and order are more helpless than a child before a leader, and it just so happens to be that you are a child and I am a leader. Go on home and read your little fairy tales again, your parents should have dinner ready by now."

The dictator mocked Masaru, thinking less of him than he did of Olberic. This kid had to be lost, there was simply no way that he won a match unless his opponent was even more pitiful than he was. The Warrior of Hope was simply amusement for Bison, challenging him to a match that the child could never win, not even in his dreams. His Psycho Power has taken down the most accomplished fighters of the world, ancient spirits and even a deity! What was a punt kid going to do to him? "Let's get this over with, you better not waste my time or you will pay dearly. The price, your life." @Shen: King of the Mist

 

[Gamingfan]

Marshadow looked over at NiGHTS over in surprise, before raising an eyebrow at their jolly demeanor. However, he couldn't be rude, so he shook their hand still a little bewildered. For someone who had gone through so many fights, they sure were happy. Maybe they were just proud, or smug.
"Shadow" he responded.
Sure.


Kirby blinked as he was sent back to where he was. He looked up to see his new opponent: Gunvolt. The puffball jumped up, giving a happy poyo before raising his nub as a greeting.

 

[Captain Pokémon]

Sonic arrived back in the plaza, seeing everyone that was left starting to begin their battles. “Wow, nobody here ever chills, do they?” He commented, before seeing a structure in the distance. He realized that it was a snack shack. “Oh no way!” He dashed there in less than a second, then jumped into the stool and spun around for a second. He stopped and said to the shack, “Gimme a chili dog.” He presumed it was magic, like everything else seemed to be around here. Turns out he was correct and a chili dog appeared out of thin air and landed in his hand. “Woah, cool!” He said and took a bite out of it.

Eggman nodded as Specter went off to find his opponent, and decided he should find his own. He looked to Metal. “Alright Metal, go break that gumball’s non-existent knees.” He told him, and Metal simply nodded. Eggman floated off to look for that Sturm guy. He eventually found him and floated up to him. “You!” He said and pointed at him somewhat aggressively. “You’re my opponent! Now let’s go, I’m not here for chit-chat.” He said.

Gunvolt watched Kirby and Terrarian's match conclude with a massive explosion, leaving Master Hand to deal with the aftermath. He then heard a "Poyo!" from below him, getting his attention as he looked down to face the pink puffball. So he ended up winning that match after all... Gunvolt thought, giving Kirby a little handshake, if those nubs of his could be considered hands.

"Oh my gosh he's so cute! He's like a little plushie, I wanna hug him!" Joule exclaimed, clearly loving the adorable puffball. Gunvolt just smiled at both her comments and his opponent, slightly regretting having to fight him. But he couldn't back down if he wanted that wish.

"See you on the battlefield. Good luck." He said before heading through the archway once again, back to Second-to-last Destination. Upon being asked what stage he wanted to choose, he said “Utu Media Tower.” The computer brought up a massive building, both fighters being in a fairly large room, windows showing a huge city below. He could hear Joule groaning, she definitely didn't want Kirby to be harmed.

Kirby gave a jolly smile as Gunvolt returned his nubshake. The puffball followed, carrying a determined expression, ready for his battle. He found himself in a large room with windows all around, and Gunvolt on the other side. Kirby brought up his nubs and spread his feet, preparing for the fight.

Once Kirby had made it to the arena too, Gunvolt decided to make the first move. Deploying his Flashfield and with his dart type set to Cerberus, he held the trigger to unleash a barrage of darts at high speed. He made sure to also aim slightly above and to the sides of Kirby in an attempt to cut off any escape routes, wanting to see how he would deal with the darts so he could act accordingly.

NiGHTS smiled at their newfound opponent, shaking their hand before letting go, twirling around once in the air.

“Alright! Let’s get to the match, come along then, let’s get this started!”

NiGHTS did a loop before going headfirst into the archway, preparing for their next battle with Marshadow.

“W-Wha?”

Masaru was caught off guard by his foe’s confidence. Greater than a demon?? This guy must be like a boss or something! Getting his never back, Masaru cleared his throat.

“Well, your one mouthy demon! Or maybe the devil himself I don’t know. What I DO know is that your not gonna go any further, cause us kids have had enough being under the boot of smelly, filthy, demons like you! Your exactly why our movement exists, and why I’m here standing bravely on the front lines! You won’t scare me with your platimatudes. I am the Leader. YOU are the DEMON. The Demon that must be slayed by the valiant hero! Ya hear?!”

Stomping on the ground and pointing accusingly at the man dressed in black and red, Masaru could already tell he would love grinding this guy into meaty paste.

The Courier looked to Specter, as his mouth wasn't moving an inch, yet his voice still rung inside The Courier's head. The Courier smirked underneath his helmet. It seems this Specter is confident that he'll win, so much so that he would actually reveal his power even before the battle started. Having already swapped some weapons and chems around, the Courier went to exam Specter.

[Intelligence 4] The Courier figured it must be telepathy, some kind of similiar mind powers like the Forecaster Kid back at the 188 Trading Post. It wasn't exactly foreseeing the future, but it must still be some kind of power linked with Specter's mind.

[Perception 4, Intelligence 8] The chair he was sitting on didn't seem like it had anything special about it, but that peculiar headwear seemed interesting. It probably had a link with that telepathy of Specter's, possibly linking to Telekinesis via enhanced control, or another type of mental ability. It seems this battle will be more difficult than even Sly's.

[Intelligence 6] That confident attitude, it told the Courier everything he needed to know. Specter appeared to be thinking little of him. He must think this would be over quickly. The Courier figured that Specter would most likely put too much focus on taking him out, and the Courier would be able to distract him as soon as the opportunity for it rose.

Finishing his brief examination, The Courier simply nodded and turned heel, walking toward the gateway, stepping through. As he reached the familiar arena, the automated voice asked him to give a location again. This time, the Courier would pick something more serious.

[ Sierra Madre, at the Gates ]

The Area started to morph into a much darker setting, with a creepy ambient feeling. It shifted into a type of broken-down resort, a large gate serving as the entrance and exit to it, with a large fountain with a female hologram hovering at the top of it. Behind the hologram was another gate, leading to a large building. To the far left and right sides, there were gatherings of eerie red clouds, some creepy, round green lights peering out of it. The Courier stood by, awaiting Specter's arrival before starting.

Sturm snapped his fingers loudly at Eggman's sentence, bellowing out not .1 second after the doctor finished talking. " Quit wasting your breath on talk, fool! Relish what oxygen you've yet are able to breathe, because your lungs will be soon filled with lead! " Sturm snapped back like a true evil dictator before turning around and stomping on through the gateway. @Captain Pokémon

M. Bison stared at Masaru, his grin dying down as he bent forward and flicked Masaru's nose. Straightening his back again, he glared down on the kid with pure white eyes. "You know, I think I might just agree with these demons you're talking about. If every kid is as noisy as you, you need to be kept under control. Besides, for a hero, your last name is not exactly very hero-like. Daimon, sounds like a demon to me. What if you are a demon? What are you going to do, take yourself out? And out of all the organizations out there to take Shadaloo and me down, the Warriors of Hope are not exactly well-known. Hell, sending kids to fight? If they're that desperate, they might as well disband at this moment. I can take better care of you and potentially other kids, or at least make you more threatening than you are now. Now, are you here to fight or are you lost on your way to the daycare?" @Shen: King of the Mist
