<Wind> Session 262: The World Tournament
<Wind> Time Chart: May 29th, 2224. Several Weeks After Last Session. A Few Days Before the Tournament
<Wind> Location: Mega City
<Wind> Narrator: As the time drew closer for the World Tournament, everyone who planned to participate began to get ready. While Wind kept things together in the city, spending the weeks working on human/reploid relations, everyone else was getting ready to win the title.
* Chad has joined #taw
* Wind sits in a conference room, tapping his pencil on the table while people under him argue about what to do with the tournament.
* Colephantus is currently on top of the building 38 since he has no other place to go. The breeze is blowing by him as he stands as still as a stone. His hair flows up in a wave and then rest back on his shoulder, once this happens he snaps into his fighting stance, and thrusts his left arm forward, then he spins around to give a roundhouse kick to the air, followed up with a jumping kick right afterward. Once he lands he slides back into hi
<Colephantus> des back into his stands and then continues on. Swinging and fighting, training for the tournament before him.
<Wind> NRP: Someone brave enough to RP!
<Slasher> NRP: *wonders why Cole said the last bit*
* Wind leans back in his seat, looking out the window at the bright, sunny day, wishing something would save him from this boring meeting.
<Colephantus> NRP: Well no one else was doing anythign so kiss muh arse.
* Chad sprints through the woods by Snipe's house, sweat beads off forehead, his shirt soaked.
* Slasher sits on a ledge of a building across from the building Wind is feverishly working in.
* Wind squints his eyes as he leans across his seat to stare at the building across the way.
* Slasher waves fiendishly as he notices Wind finally spot him
* Wind glances at the arguing people, then suddenly vanishes from his chair. He appears on the building ledge next to Slasher. As he stands there, he casually adjusts his tie.
<Slasher> Don't you just love how beauracrats argue over the simplest things?
<Wind> They were debating if they should add butter to the popcorn.
* Granji has joined #taw
<Slasher> But that would cost...god...10,000 gil!
<Wind> 6* Katrina pulls herself up and down on a training bar. As sweat pours down her face, she continues to work out, despite aching muscles.
<Wind> Heaven forbid.
* Slasher lets out a lighthearted chuckle.
* Chad reaches a cliff and leaps off it, soaring through the air, the ground below him gives way to water. Chad's body twists and he dives into it, disappearing below the decent sized ponds surface.
<Slasher> The worlds a buzz with the announcement of the World Tournament's reopening.
<Wind> 6* Snipe stands in a field near the pond with baby Andrea. He stands there, showing her fighting techniques.
<Wind> Indeed. We've already sold out of every ticket. And the airports are loving the fact they're getting business to fly people to Japan.
* Slasher pushes himself up off the ledge and pats Wind on the back. 1"I bet you're glad you came up with the idea too eh?
* Colephantus continues with his training, his punches and his kicks and his casual roundhouses. After that he turns for the nearest building and takes off into a pounding run and launches himself into the air, the wind rips through his hair as he soars and then he lands onto the next rooftop, rolling back up to his feet he continues on. Ignoring the burnging of his insides, Cole begins to make he way around town, hopping from Rooftop to roof
<Colephantus> Rooftop to rooftop.
* Chad resurfaces and begins swimming through the pond towards Snipe and Andrea.
<Wind> You're flattering me. 6He glances at Slasher. "In any event, it should be fun. By the way, I should thank you for the Cartel connections. They've taken in Janus' supplies and I'm already getting people employed with my secret project."
<Wind> 6* Snipe stands there in his purple gi, his red hair in a long, tangled mess like he use to keep it when he was younger. His glasses are also ditched now.
* Wind leans forward as he sees a speck jumping from building to building below him.
* Slasher lets out another chuckle. 1"Oh you already thanked me, my gift should be at my house in about a couple of days. Plus with my cut from the Cartel for opening this venture I'll have even more supplies to have fun with."
<Slasher> /me watches the speck leap from building to building.
* Slasher watches the speck leap from building to building.
<Slasher> Looks like you're gonna see an increase in the construction company now too.
* Colephantus 's head is pounding as his body struggles to keep fluid pumping to each respective part. The buildings seem to be almost be blurs under his feet as he continues on throughout the city.
<Wind> The reploids have been signing up to do the most dangerous work - to humans, while leaving them the easier jobs. It's helping to produce harmony between the two groups.
* Chad trudges up onto shore and slows down to a halt infront of Snipe, using this time to catch his breath.
<Wind> 6* Snipe turns his head to glance at Chad, then turns back to Andrea. He continues to show her fighting styles, which makes the baby gurgle and laugh at him.
<Slasher> That can be a two-sided coin, but it helps in the short-end.
<Alicia> <Michiru> *sits and watches*
<Chad> What was my time?
<Wind> <Snipe> Six seconds faster than last time.
<X1> You can say that again! *stands next to Slasher and Wind, covered in a green-glowing goop
* Wind turns to look at X1 in surprise.
<Wind> I won't ask how you managed to find us up here.
<Slasher> He's worse than a mangy dog...
* Slasher turns around
<X1> ...This isn't the bathroom!
<Chad> Good...*catches his breath, standing upright now*
<Wind> Have you seen Wiendigo lately, X1? 6He leans against his knee as he looks down at Cole leaping around
<Slasher> ...You didn't deliver another Lunarian did you?
* X1 wipes a bit of goo off his armor and licks it off his finger. "Nah, doesn't taste like it."
<Slasher> Good, I'd hate to have to arrest you.
* Colephantus continues his sprint, finally making he way back to Building 38 where he slides to a halt. He is panting loudly and he kneels down onto a knee while he takes in the sweet tasting air.
<Alicia> <Michiru> I wonder what the tournament will be like...
<Wind> <Snipe> It'll be a bunch of people punching the crap out of each other, dear. 6He turns to look at Michiru.
<Chad> Not the kind of place for you Michi.
<X1> Wieny and Gravey are off on some globe-trotting excursion. You know Wien, he's always gotta be prepared.
* Wind chuckles, shaking his head.
<Wind> That sounds like him.
<Wind> Rumor has it that you're going to enter, Slasher. 6He glances at him.
<X1> You should make him Secretary of Paranoia!
* Kio has joined #TAW
<Slasher> Those damn rumors...You know how they get leaked so easily...
<Wind> Especially when you leak them.
<Slasher> Hahahaha, you know how I love attention.
<Wind> I'd watch out for Snipe. 6He says seriously. "The boy managed to get by me completely undetected. I had no idea he had even been there."
<X1> *I* should enter. Yeah, I'd come out the tops! *starts punching the air furiously as his tongue stick out of the corner of his mouth. One sharp jab, however, sends him flaing over the edge of the building*
* Wind stands there as he watches X1 fall. He reaches out and grabs him by the back of the neck.
<X1> ...Cool! I can fly!
* Wind drops X1 back on the edge of the roof. He shakes his goo-covered hand now, making a face.
<Slasher> *watches as Wind snatches X1 by the back of the neck* He's gained a new resolve for some reason, it's just good to see him happy. Speaking of that, thanks for clearing Cole's name, I know you how you two feel about each other but it's a good step in the right direction.
* Colephantus stands up strait and rubs his shoulder. He pulls up a desk from the 3rd floor and begins to lift it high into the air, bringing it down as slow as possible so he doesn't spill the contents inside, he slowly raises it again, letting his muscles ache with strain.
<Wind> Katrina has a thing for him. 6He wipes his hand off on Slasher's back.
<Slasher> Still?
<Wind> I'd assume so.
<Colephantus> NRP: I'm like a big teddy bear! :D
<X1> You should set that girl up on a blind date.
<Wind> By blind date, you really mean a blind man, don't you?
<X1> Well, blind people need love too, you know!
<Slasher> And since Cole's about as dense as the toaster in X1, this won't get resolved until Blue comes back and causes someone to get hurt.
* Wind scowls at the name Blue.
* Chad cracks his neck and walks over to the side of Snipe where a nice sized tree trunk stands, his feet slide apart into his fighting stance, reminescent of his father's.
<Wind> <Snipe> I wonder if that pesky Lunar Girl will show up at the tournament.
<Chad> *turns his head back to Snipe, then starts laughing*
<Alicia> <Michiru> You never know.
<Wind> <Snipe> Michiru, never hang out with masked weirdos like that. They're a bad influence.
<Chad> There ya go Johnny, the perfect way to get her back for your bed sheets...*he turns back to the tree trunk and throughs out a quick left jab, cracking his fist into the wood*
<Wind> 6* Katrina swings back and forth on the training bar until she's perched vertical on top of it, trying to keep her balance.
<Chad> NRP: Throws..
<Alicia> <Michiru> ... that looks painful.
* Chad pulls his fist back and pauses for a split-second then begin throwing a barrage of punches at the tree trunk*
<Wind> <Snipe> Macho men like to do that.
* Wind stretches, then looks across the street at the meeting winding down.
<Wind> Well, looks like they're finally wrapping up the butter talk.
<Wind> See you two at the tournament. May the best men win and all that.
* Slasher gives Wind the two finger salute.
* Chad slams his forearm into the trunk then shoves backwards, sliding across the grass, as he comes to a stop he launches towards it, spin-kicking against it's side, as his foot slams into it, he spins his entire body, bringing his other foot into the same spot, sending splinters of wood flying.
<Wind> <Snipe> So, Michiru, are your moms going to come watch me win that prize?
<X1> Fight on, Wind man, for everlasting buttery goodness!
<Alicia> <Michiru> Of course
<Wind> 6* Wind groans, then teleports back across the street into his chair, as if he never left.
* Chad lands on his back and rolls backwards and onto his feet.
<Chad> That's if you can manage to beat me!
* Colephantus finally sets down the large desk and then pulls it back inside, sliding it to the spot where it belonged. Cole straitens up and then looks around, finally stepping downstairs to the showers, where he quickly works on making himself clean.
<Slasher> So X1...Have you visisted Death Star's grave lately?
<Wind> 6* Katrina finally flips off the bar and lands on the ground. She touches her stomach briefly, then straightens up.
<X1> No. Why, is he going somewhre?
<Wind> <Snipe> ... this fight will be great. The best tournament ever. 6He punches his fist into his open hand. "I may not be able to fight Garland ever again, but that doesn't mean there isn't better challenges out there."
<Slasher> No...But I think we should go visit our unsung hero.
<X1> This isn't going to be like that time we visted the stripclub so you could apologize for that time you barfed on that striper, is it?
<Slasher> Well if you wouldn't have slipped that Brichel in there I wouldn't have puked.
<X1> I thought it was candy!
* Slasher puts his hand on the goo-covered X1 and phases away with him. Seconds later they reappear in the grave yard.
<Chad> You've been rambling on about Garland this Garland that ever since Slasher and Cheryl moved in with you guys....
<Wind> <Snipe> ... it's either that or listen to Cheryl's moans all night long.
<X1> Kinda weird, ain't it?
<Slasher> What?! *he turns his head to X1*
<Alicia> <Michiru> ... There's nothing wrong with honouring fallen heroes, anyway.
<Chad> What moans?
<Alicia> <Michiru> Maybe when you're older...
<Wind> <Snipe> .... you don't HEAR the moans?
<Chad> Why would I hear anything?
<Wind> 6* Snipe smacks his forehead.
<X1> That he's gone, but that he's not. With Wind, I mean.
<Alicia> <Michiru> Must be a heavy sleeper.
<Wind> <Snipe> At least I know you, my daughter, suffer with me at night.
<Chad> Suffer? *suddenly loses his fighting composure, not sure what they're talking about*
<Chad> NRP: Brb.
<Slasher> I guess if you look at it that way...
<Wind> <Snipe> I think you should ask Cheryl to explain it to you, boy.
<Wind> <Snipe> Wait, no, then shem ight actually give you a demonstration...
<Alicia> <Michiru> ...scary
<X1> They're kinda like brothers. And for 'Death Star', all of them, it seems like he's had a few. When Mega Man and Proto Man were gone, and Dr. Light and Roll...and even Rush, it was like I'd lost my family. Well, wait, I guess I *DID* lose my family, but then I got another...who I also lost, then Death Star came along, and...Wow, maybe I should stop getting families.
<Wind> <Snipe> She really is - I once theorized that Cheryl was all of Ariel's sexual pent up frustrations unleashed.
<Alicia> <Michiru> So that's why Ariel and Wind haven't
* Slasher lets out a light chuckle and starts walking towards Death Stars unmarked grave.
<Wind> <Snipe> Exactly.
<Chad> You guys are messed up...*turns back to the trunk and begins to punch it*
<Wind> 6* Snipe beams proudly. "You can tell she's my kid."
<Slasher> Dias always said the Lunarians prayed on the feeble minded.
<Slasher> NRP: Doh.
<Chad> Dad always said the Lunarians prayed on the feeble minded.
<Wind> <Snipe> Better watch out. You diss Michiru's moms and she'll beat you up.
<Alicia> <Michiru> You want to take that back?
* Colephantus finishes his shower and gets dressed again. Making his way back up to the roof he sits down on the edge and stares out into the city. The breeze flowing over and around him.
<Wind> 6* A bird flies around above Cole.
* Colephantus looks up at it.
<Chad> I'm only stating why my dad told me...*waits to see if Snipe realizes he just insulted him*
<Wind> 6* It drops it's load at Cole.
<Wind> 6* Aya, Chad's younger sister, walks out with a picnic basket full of food. She sets it down. "I'm done cooking!"
<Slasher> To think that we're probably the only two that realize what Death Star sacrificed in the Reploid/Human war.
* Colephantus rolls out of the way but gets hit in the arm. He looks down at it and cruses. "Damn Bird..." he stands and moves back into the building chaning shirts again. Now he just strolls down to the lobby below and sits down on the couch. Staring at the blank area where the holo-vid would be.
<Chad> YAY!!! *turns in a dime and sprints towards Aya*
<Wind> 6* The bird perches on the window edge, looking into the lobby at Cole. It pecks on the window.
<Chad> *sprints past Chad, bumping into him as he stumbles and slides towards the picnic basket*
<Wind> <Snipe> Food I can deal with.
<Chad> NRP: Bah..Snipe.
<Wind> 6* Snipe eyes Chad.
<Chad> Whad ya make sis?!
<X1> It didn't have to be that way, though. As much as he was my friend, and I understand why he did what he did, he could've chosen another course.
<Wind> <Aya> Hamburgers and steaks.
<Slasher> But would the outcome have been the same?
* X1 shrugs. "Could have been any worse?"
* Chad plants his feet and swings his feet out and under him and plops down on his rear as he waits for Aya to hand the food out.
<X1> *could it have
<Wind> 6* Aya begins to hand Michiru, Chad, and Snipe their food on paper plates.
<Slasher> It can always be worse X1, you should know that by now.
* Chad grabs his burger and begins wolfing it down.
<X1> Not when you stand by your friends and family, Slasher. Not if you remember you're not alone. And have pants on.
<Alicia> <Michiru> *starts eating, a little slower than Chad*
<Wind> <Snipe> ... 6He grabs his hamburger, taking a bite as he thinks.
<Chad> *finishes his burger, lickign his lips* It's always a treat when you cook sis.
<Wind> <Aya> Thank you! 6She laughs.
<Wind> 6* Andrea lays on a blanket, gurgling.
* Slasher stops infront of DS's grave and looks down at it
<Wind> Narrator: And finally, the big day finally arrived. The day of the world tournament - where people from all over the planet gathered to compete for the world's strongest. But who would win? Who would be victorious? And would they have butter popcorn?
<Wind> Time Chart: June 1st, 2224
<Wind> Location: The World Tournament, Japan
<Wind> 6* The stadium around the tournament is packed full of people as they cheer and urge the fighting to begin. It's a bright day at Japan and the weather is beautiful and clear.
* Wind stands at the edge of the ring, glancing at the people in the stands. He shakes his head in amazement.
* Snipe has joined #Taw
* Katrina` has joined #Taw
* Katrina` stands near the ring, wearing a tanktop and jeans to fight in. She stretches her body by bending to the right, then the left.
<X1> NRP: <Popefrombeyondthegrave> *whistles a cat call*
* Slasher stands to the side and slightly behind Wind, his arms behind his back as he waits.
<Wind> NRP: LOL. *For some reason, Pope the Zombie is competing*
<Slasher> NRP: So just the upper portion of him?
* Colephantus is leaning against a wall that seperates the stands from the arena. His arms are crossed and his eyes are fixed onto the ring before him.
<X1> NRP: Competing? Phh, he'd be getting drunk in the stands and shouting out random obscenities
* Snipe stands in the crowd of the stadium. His eyes are closed as his arms are crossed.
* Wind walks over to the microphone on the stage. He adjusts the microphone, glancing out at the crowd.
* Chad stands beside Aya, wearing a headband that she made for him, his clothes are slightly reminescent of what his father wore, a grey hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans.
<Wind> I'd like to thank you for all coming today to support the tournament. I've myself never stood here before today, so this is a first for me. However, I can see now how special it really is.
<Chad> This is so friggin awesome Aya!
<Wind> Before we begin, President Slasher here would like to speak a few lines to all the fighters. 6He claps his hands, stepping to the side for Slasher to have access. The crowd cheers.
* Slasher quirks his eyebrows, then takes several steps forward infront of the microphone.
* Snipe eats some buttered popcorn, offering some to Hotaru.
<Wind> <Aya> You're going to win today, right?
<Alicia> <Hotaru> *takes some* Thanks
<Chad> You darn right I am! Not even Snipe's gonna stand in my way!
* Snipe scans the area until he sees Cole. He smirks a little.
* Wind eyes the area, making sure X1 doesn't pull any strange stunts like at the wedding.
* Colephantus seems to be completely zoned out right now. His eyes seem to be offline and he continues to just stand there.
<Slasher> I'm proud to say that these are probably the finest group of fighters that I've ever seen before me, so that means we will be seeing some of the greatest fighters in the world compete.
<Slasher> So let's get this Tournament started and give it our best.
* Slasher takes a step back towards Wind.
* Wind walks over to the microphone, taking a sigh of relief that nothing odd has happened. She clears his throat, looking out at everyone.
<Slasher> NRP: BOOYAA!
<Wind> NRP: Wind's a GIRL!
<Colephantus> NRP: Thats explains WInd and Ariel.
<Wind> This year's fighters are Colephantus. President Slasher. 6The crowd hoots at that. "Chad Winters. John McCormick. Lunar Girl."
* Wind pauses at Lunar Girl when he hears a shout of joy from the stadium
* Snipe coughs, dropping his hand.
<Zephyne> NRP: What is that supposed to mean anyways Cole?
<Colephantus> NRP: HAH! You'll never know. :D
<Slasher> NRP: That would explain why they haven't had sex!
<Colephantus> NRP: Well now you do know...
<Wind> Ninja Ted. The Little Rodent. 6Makes faces at these names now.
<Alicia> NRP: Wait... NOOOO!!! I know who "The Little Rodent" is!
<Wind> NRP: LOL
<Slasher> NRP: It's Andrea.
<Alicia> NRP: I thought it was The Squirrel
* Wind continues to call out names of people. It seems a lot of people signed up.
<Wind> And finally.... ..... .... Katrina...Star... 6He says as he glances at Katrina.
* Katrina` pauses in her stretching to give Wind a quick smile.
* Colephantus blinks back into a consious state now. He glances over at Katrina and sighs. Knowing his luck he'll have to face her in this...and he would rather not.
<Wind> The rules are simple: no weapons such as sabres and guns are allowed. However, special techniques are granted in this fight. Also, no killing.
<Wind> Lets make this a good fight. 6He claps his hands with the crowd.
* Slasher throws his left fist in to the air giving out a loud hoot
* Alicia is now known as Lunar`Girl
<Wind> The first match is between ... 6He calls out two random names. The people begin to get up to fight while Wind hops off the stage to talk to Katrina.
<Snipe> Well, honey, this is it. I'm going to make history.
<Lunar`Girl> <Hotaru> Good luck!
* Snipe kisses her on the cheek, then hops out of the stadium area into the middle.
<Wind> NRP: *Hotaru waves "Go LG" signs. Snipe eyes her*
<Lunar`Girl> NRP: *laughs*
<Chad> That's my call sis! *he gives her a big hug and turns sprinting towards the arena floor*
<Wind> 6* Two fighters fight in the middle arena.
* Slasher walks to the side of the arena floor, making his way towards Snipe.
* Snipe walks over to Cole, eyeing him up and down.
<Snipe> Are you ready for the fight of the century?
<Wind> 6* As the first round ends, the crowd cheers. Wind walks over to the stage and calls out the next to contenders. "Lunar Girl and Little Rodent!"
* Colephantus turns his eyes to Snipes. "Yes." He says knowing that if he has to fight Snipe, he'll have to give it his all.
<Snipe> I look forward to it.
* Lunar`Girl heads into the arena, wondering who this "little rodent" is
<Colephantus> We'll see if I finally surpassed you. *he smirks*
<Wind> 6* Someone completely wrapped up in a cloak walks up onto the arena. He throws it off, revealing a robotic squirrel. "Chitter."
* Slasher slides up behind Snipe. 1"Well if it isn't the missing gay Freto Ranger"
<Lunar`Girl> ... you're kidding...
* Snipe eyes Slasher.
<Snipe> I hate you. 6He turns to the second match. "It's my arch nemesis!"
* Slasher gives Snipe a gaint smile.
* Snipe does a split as she warms up.
<Snipe> NRP: ARGH
<Snipe> NRP: Snipe's a GIRL!
* Chad sprints upto Cole, Snipe and Slasher.
* Lunar`Girl stares in disbelief at the squirrel she's supposed to fight
<Wind> <Squirrel> ... CHITTER! 6Fires electricity at Lunar Girl
<Colephantus> NRP: You are finally revealing all the secrets.
* Katrina` is the one warming up.
* Lunar`Girl leaps out of the way, throwing a psi blast back
<Wind> <Squirrel> ... 6Flips into the air, literally in slow motion as it dodges the attack and comes down. The crowd stares in disbelief.
<Colephantus> So. What does the winner get from this anyway?
<Lunar`Girl> ... no way...
<Snipe> I hear there's a 100,000 gil prize.
* Colephantus blinks. "Looks like Mi...Lunar Girl is gonna get her ass kicked by a squirrel."
* Lunar`Girl rushes the squirrel as it comes down, trying to catch and throw it
<Wind> <Squirrel> ... AIEEE! 6*Is thrown through the air in slow motion toward the edge of the ring.
<Snipe> ...how does it do that??
<Lunar`Girl> <Hotaru> I'm sure I've seen that squirrel before...
* Slasher looks at the ring studying the squirel.
<Slasher> I'm more interested in studying everyone.
<Wind> 6* The squirrel continues to fly toward the edge in slow motion.
* Lunar`Girl fires another blast in the direction of the squirrel
<Wind> 6* The squirrel is hit and knocked out of the ring.
<Colephantus> Hmmm. Seems I was wrong.
<Snipe> ...she's a strong one.
<Colephantus> I bet she has a tough family.
* Lunar`Girl pauses, then does a victory dance in the middle of the arena
* Snipe eyes the victory dance. He recoils.
<Chad> I bet her families full of tasteless freaks.
<Snipe> She does a hero victory dance.
<Lunar`Girl> <Hotaru> *eyes Chad*
* Katrina` applauds Lunar Girl loudly.
* Katrina` whistles for her.
<Lunar`Girl> THANKYOU!
<Colephantus> Seems Katrina has betrayed you Snipe. Cheering for your rival.
<Zephyne> <Silouette> *watches from the rafters*
* Snipe recoils at the sight of Katrina cheering.
<Snipe> My own sister!
<Colephantus> Now you really have to show that Lunar Girl whats coming to her.
<Slasher> Looks like everyone's turning against you John.
<Snipe> This Lunar Girl is obviously using mind control.
* Lunar`Girl waits for the cheers to die down, then heads back so the next contestants can fight
<Chad> What a show boater.
<Wind> 6* The next two contestants begin to fight now.
* Katrina` rotates her shoulders a few times, bending her neck from side to side.
* Wind stands around, watching the fighting
<Wind> 6* The next round ends with Bouncing Bob knocking out his opponent with three quick bounces.
<Snipe> Is this year full of freaks?
* Lunar`Girl continues to watch the matches

<Colephantus> Apparently...we are here.
<Snipe> I hate you. Haaaaate
<Lunar`Girl> <Hotaru> ... first a squirrel, now this?
<Wind> 6* The next round is called up ... U Taker vs. Mr. T
<Slasher> You hate me?! Uh...I'm hurt, we'll see if I invite you to my Christmans Extravaganza!
<Lunar`Girl> NRP: I pity the foo'
<Wind> NRP: LOL
<Wind> 6* Mr. T gets on the stage. He shows off his huge, bulging muscles.
* X1 is now known as Gravedigger
<Snipe> Hey, Slasher.... Mr. T could benchpress you.
* Gravedigger leaps onto the stage and discards his cloak and hood
<Snipe> And...what the hell!?
* Katrina` blinks in surprise.
<Lunar`Girl> <Hotaru> Grave's fighting?
<Wind> Gravedigger...?
* Slasher begins smirking. 1"GO GRAVE!"
<Colephantus> Well shit. More and more strong people show up.
* Gravedigger takes a loose fighting stance
* Chad eyes everyone, not knowing this person*
<Wind> <Mr. T> I will SMASH you! 6He begins to run at Grave.
<Lunar`Girl> <Hotaru> This is going to be a tough tournament.
<Colephantus> I really wished you hadn't talked me into this Snipe...
* Snipe laughs, looking more excited now.
<Colephantus> I could be...walking aroudn town right now...man those were good times...
* Gravedigger grins and drops to his knee, then spins back and around going for a drop-toe-hold
* Slasher looks up, spotting Sil in the rafters, another smirk appearing on his face*
<Colephantus> I expect Wien is here too.
<Wind> <Mr. T> 6Flails his arms about as he tries to recover.
* Gravedigger snakes his leg away and lets T fall flat on his face
<Lunar`Girl> I wonder who isn't here.
<Wind> 6* Mr. T smashes into the arena facefirst.
<Snipe> God. God isn't here.
<Snipe> Plus your moms aren't competing, which gives me a good chance.
<Lunar`Girl> Good thing too.
<Colephantus> NRP: Uh.
* Chad turns around, looking at the crowd, hoping to spot Aya
* Colephantus blinks at the two.
<Wind> <Aya> 6Waves at Chad.
<Lunar`Girl> Wait, what?
* Chad waves
<Snipe> ...I mean, 6Coughs.
* Colephantus rubs his head....
* Gravedigger prods T with his foot
<Snipe> I will get you my arch nemesis!
<Lunar`Girl> We'll see.
<Wind> <Mr. T> 6Jumps to his feet and throws his Super T Punch at Grave's face.
<Colephantus> I think she is talking smack to you Snipe.
<Snipe> I'll get the Masked Wonder soon enough
* Gravedigger snaps back in surprise and brings his hand up as he deflects the punch to the side
<Wind> 6* Mr. T overextends himself a few steps. He quickly tries to recover.
<Lunar`Girl> Well, if I don't win, he's sure to.
* Gravedigger nudges T further off balance with a soft elbow shot
<Snipe> Wow, Grave's slower than he use to be. This Mr. T is winning
<Wind> 6* Mr. T falls onto the arena floor hard.
* Colephantus doesn't say anything else, he begins to look around at his opponents. He sighs to himself and knows that this easy tournament just got a lot tougher.
<Snipe> Or not.
<Slasher> Graves toying with him John.
<Lunar`Girl> For a second, I thought he'd lost his touch.
* Slasher turns back to Lunar Girl.
<Colephantus> Snipe...surely you would have noticed that...
<Slasher> How would you know what kind of touch he has?
<Wind> 6* Mr. T stands up and eyes Grave. He begins to throws rapid punches at Grave, trying to hit him.
<Colephantus> Yeah. It's not like you've met him before..
<Colephantus> Or have you?
<Snipe> Yes, she has. Grave and I worked with her.
* Colephantus eyes her.
<Slasher> At the hospital right.
<Colephantus> Oh really? you worked with your nemesis? Brave man you are.
<Snipe> I had no choice.
* Gravedigger throws his arms up, deflecting the punches quickly as they approach his face. Then with a sharp, precise move, he brings his knee up nd directly into T's midsection
<Lunar`Girl> The fate of the world was at stake!
<Wind> 6* Mr. T is hit, gags in pain as spits fall out of his open mouth. He stumbles back, clutching his chest.
<Chad> God not more of that god awful zealous speech!
<Snipe> Now THAT had to hurt.
<Colephantus> I think Grave should stop playing and just end it now.
<Snipe> So you can toy with your opponent?
* Gravedigger stands again in a defense position
<Slasher> It's not all about winning straight out Cole, you need to play the crowd.
<Lunar`Girl> That's right
<Slasher> The crowd came here for a fight, he's giving them that.
<Wind> <Mr. T> 6Finally recovers. He leaps up in the air and tries to land on top of Grave.
<Colephantus> I'm not an entertainer when it comes to fighting.
<Lunar`Girl> Well, except against squirrels.
<Colephantus> End it as quick as possible to move on.
* Katrina` watches the fighting.
<Colephantus> But you know who I will probalby have to face...
<Snipe> Who?
* Colephantus glances at them.
* Gravedigger reaches his arm up as T comes down and catches him around the chest and neck. Then with a mild jump, he goes up and around T's back, clutching him in a chokehold
* Chad runs off, disappearing.
<Colephantus> The only person here that I would rather not....
<Slasher> Cole's afraid he'll have to fight Kat.
<Wind> 6* Mr. T gags, trying to throw Grave off. He stumbles around.
<Snipe> Ooooo. Afraid to hurt her ... or that she'll hurt you?
<Colephantus> A bit of both...
<Snipe> Slasher once told me Katrina kneed Wind and did major damage. From a kick.
* Gravedigger keeps applying the chokehold
<Wind> 6* Mr. T falls off the arena edge and tries to land on top of Grave.
<Lunar`Girl> Kneed him where?
<Lunar`Girl> If it's where I think, I'm not surprised
* Gravedigger lets go out of surprise and in a blur, pulls T under himself
<Slasher> In the shin if I recall.
<Lunar`Girl> ... yeah, that's it.
<Slasher> No really.
<Wind> 6* Mr. T hits the ground with a big wham. The crowd cheers for Gravedigger, applauding louder for him than anyone else so far.
<Colephantus> She can't fight...she's been taught by the best...I know.
* Snipe claps his hands for Grave.
* Colephantus also claps for Grave.
<Snipe> Actually, Cole, Wind is a very sucky hand-to-hand combatant.
<Snipe> He likes swords.
<Colephantus> Her mother....
* Gravedigger gets up and dusts himself off, then looks down at T. "Uhh, sorry, man..."
<Snipe> Oh, right, Ariel. She's more of a kamahamaha.
<Colephantus> NRP: Can...not can't. sheesh I just caught that.
<Wind> 6* Mr. T's eyes spin in wiggly lines
* Gravedigger strolls over to the group
* Slasher reaches his hand out to Grave.
<Colephantus> Those are legal aren't they?
<Snipe> Well, U Taker...you sure took him.
<Wind> 6* The next fight starts up.
<Lunar`Girl> Special techniques are legal.
<Lunar`Girl> Just not weapons.
* Chad reappears with a giant ham leg in his hand.
* Snipe eyes Chad.
* Gravedigger takes Snipe's hand heartily. "I honestly tried to give him a chance, he just was really, really sloppy."
<Slasher> Good job Grave. The crowd loved you.
* Lunar`Girl also eyes Chad
* Chad takes a bite out of it, barely chewing it before he swallows it
<Wind> 6* The next fight suddenly ends when one of the attacks blurs and punches his opponent out of the ring in one hit. The crowd goes silence with surprise.
* Wind pauses in surprise.
* Slasher looks past Grave, his attention suddenly focusing on the new fighter.
* Colephantus blinks and looks at the arena. "Hmmm I think I know who that is..."
<Wind> 6* The new fighter, simply called "Retri", steps back. He simply walks off the ring without even acknowledging the crowd.
* Slasher studies the fighter as he walks off.
<Snipe> ...hrm.
* Lunar`Girl watches "Retri" leave
* Colephantus eyes the fighter. "Hmm I guess not...but he seems pretty strong. We'll all have to watch out for him."
<Wind> 6* Retri turns to look at them. His black hair hangs in his eyes, so he tilts his head back to eye them.
<Snipe> Agreed.
<Wind> 6* Katrina is called up against some unknown fighter now.
<Lunar`Girl> I thought I knew all the really tough fighters.
* Colephantus pats Snipe on the back. "As long as I can show you up in front of all these people, i'll be satisfied." he chuckles.
* Katrina` hops onto the ring, shaking the hands of her opponent. The two of them begin to fight.
<Slasher> Interesting...*he turns back to Grave* So the dog made it, but where's the master?
<Snipe> I look forward to it, Cole.
* Gravedigger scowls. "You know, just because Wien's my sensi, that doesn't mean I'm with him every step he takes."
* Colephantus watches Katrina's fight now. Seeing just how well she has advanced in her fighting.
* Katrina` easily avoids the opponent's attacks, only striking when it suits her - mainly, for powerful stun blows to knock her opponent off balance.
* Lunar`Girl watches the fight with interest
<Gravedigger> *sensei
<Snipe> I don't think a tournament would be his scene, anyway.
<Snipe> Even Wind looks a bit bored.
<Slasher> I was just curios to see if he'd be joining us.
<Colephantus> Hmm Katrina's doing pretty good. But she is counting on her finesse a bit too much. *he observes as he watches the fight.*
* Katrina` hits her opponent in the stomach, then delivers a quick blow to the back of their neck to knock them out. She bows to the crowd, waving as she steps off. Some people carry the poor guy off.
<Gravedigger> Right now, he's traveling the world getting a layout of things, he wants a good idea of how stable situations are globally right now, as well as getting refamilar with the geography.
* Colephantus claps for Katrina.
* Snipe claps.
* Wind applauds.
<Slasher> In hopes to quell any riots before they break out...
<Snipe> Has anyone heard the rumors about the big death ray Wind's building in space?
* Chad finishes off the ham leg and begins nibbling on the bone.
<Colephantus> She did good. Ended it quick enough to not be completely fatigued and gave everyone one a small show.
<Wind> GM: *Colephantus is called up to fight Ninja Ted*
<Gravedigger> And to prepare for future instigations.
* Colephantus pushes off from the wall and strolls over to the ring. He hops into it and waits for Ninja Ted.
<Slasher> I'd like to him to keep me upto date with any of his findings, let him know that.
<Wind> 6* Ninja Ted appears in a flash of smoke. He does a series of quick jabs in the air.
* Wind teardrops.
* Colephantus eyes his opponent and slides into a unique stance that Snipe wouldn't even recognize.
* Snipe watches Cole carefully, rubbing his chin.
* Katrina` cheers for Cole, clapping loudly.
<Lunar`Girl> How long 'til Cole wins, do you think?
<Wind> <Ninja Ted> *leaps into the air and ninja chops at Cole's head*
* Chad slides up next to Snipe and begins sucking and gnawing on the bone.
<Snipe> Ninja Ted should be easily dispatched by Cole.
<Colephantus> ...Make a show for the crowd. *he repeats to himself and instantly raises his hands into the air in an X motion, attempting to catch the chop and sling Ninja Ted toward the ground. Not intending to damage him too much.
<Gravedigger> I'd be funny if he lost.
<Colephantus> NRP: Dude now I will.
<Gravedigger> *it'd
<Wind> 6* Ninja Ted bounces off the ground and ninja flips to his feet.
* Colephantus slides back into his stance. Thus far only on the defensive.
<Slasher> Quite...*begins to look around, scanning the crowd and the stadium for anything unusual.
<Wind> 6* Ninja Ted waves his hands in a strange motion and suddenly a spirital dragon explodes from under Cole's feet, attmempting to knock him out of the ring and deal damage.
<Snipe> What the hell!?
* Wind perks up.
* Chad mouth hangs open the bone just hanging there as he stares in awe.
<Lunar`Girl> ... wow...
* Colephantus wasn't really expecting this but as he is sent into the air, he twists around and lands quietly on the edge. He slides back towards the middle of the ring. Showing no signs of fatigue just yet.
<Wind> 6* Ninja Ted rushes at Cole, then does ninja kicks at his head, trying to hit him.
<Colephantus> NRP: Yeah...if I start Power Gaming or anything. Just knock me out or something.
<Snipe> ....okay, since when did anyone but us get strong?
<Slasher> NRP: Do you get that when you read a Nintendo Power?
<Lunar`Girl> I... don't know...
* Colephantus silently moves in and out of the kicks keeping a steady eye on Ted, once his last attack comes out, Cole jerks up the catch his leg and slam him into the arena.
* Chad shakes his head and begins to gnaw on the bone again, the noises getting louder.
<Wind> 6* Ninja Ted hits the ground and vanishes in a puff of smoke. He appears all around Cole -- there's 5 ninja teds surrounding him. They all begin to attack him at once.
<Snipe> ...how can someone so cool have such a lame name?
* Gravedigger looks at Snipe. "...I'm not even going to saying anything."
<Snipe> ...wait, what?
* Chad pulls the bone out of his mouth with a slurping noise.
* Colephantus moves back and forth definently shocked at Ted's skill in ninjitsu, he switches his stance in middle of dodgeing and blocking to a slightly agressive stance and once one of the figures lashes out, he would attempt to block the limb that attacked and counter with one of his own quick kicks or jabs.
<Snipe> 6* Ninja Ted reforms into one. He bounces away from Cole.
<Wind> 6* The crowd seems to be in love with Ninja Ted so far.
* Colephantus rolls his shoulder and eyes Ted. He changes stances once more, the stance he is using now is a tight nit Tae Kwan Do form.
<Colephantus> NRP: I can't win over a crowd without super cool techs. Lol. And all my techs require weapons.
<Wind> 6* Ninja Ted flips into the air and comes flying down at Cole with his foot extened to kick him.
<Snipe> This is getting sad. Ted has a lot of skills in the spiritual arts, but no real power.
* Colephantus pulls backwards bending back to touch the arena with his hands, he continues to move with the momentum and kicks for Ted's back.
<Slasher> The strongest opponent doesn't always win John.
<Lunar`Girl> He could take out anyone who wasn't one of us, though...
<Wind> 6* Ted is hit in the back and slides for the edge. He uses ninja grip to stop from going over.
* Chad begins balancing the bone on his pointer finger.
* Snipe grabs the bone and hits Chad once over the head with it.
* Colephantus turns to face Ted and waits. He has yet to pump up any real power. So he is still testing Ted's abilities.
* Chad recoils in pain as he grabs his head in pain. 1"GAH!"
<Wind> 6* Ted flips to his feet and throws ninja chi at Cole.
<Chad> What was that for?!
<Snipe> For being annoying.
<Chad> Hmpf!
* Wind yawns, rubbing the back of his head as he eyes the naming chart.
* Colephantus blurs out of the way and reappears back in front of Ted, thrusting his knee for Ted's gut.
<Wind> 6* Ted is hit and gags i pain. He falls to his knees.
<Wind> NRP: *Gokou is strangely competing today. Everyone eyes him*
* Colephantus then attempts to kick him in the side and finish this now.
<Wind> 6* Ted is hit in the side and sent sliding to the edge.
* Katrina` holds her breath.
* Colephantus blows wind at Ted.
<Snipe> This is it....
<Wind> 6* Ted begins to stand up, eyeing Cole blowing at him.
* Colephantus sighs.
* Gravedigger studies Ninja Ted
<Wind> 6* Ted walks away from the edge, circling t othe side now.
* Colephantus sneezes and then becomes another blur. Reappearing at Ted's side with an extended fist for Ted's side that he kicked earlier.
<Snipe> That's twice Ted's gone to the edge. And twice COle's not followed.
<Wind> 6* Ted is kicked again, sliding to the edge once more.
<Slasher> He's too busy testing him to finish this...
<Wind> 6* The squirrel sneaks up on LG with a hammer in his hand
* Colephantus looks around at everyone then begins to step forward.
<Wind> 6* Ted lays there at the edge, holding his side.
<Wind> 6* The crowd cheers for Cole to finish the fight.
* Lunar`Girl spins, and STARES at the squirrel
* Granji has quit IRC (Quit: )
<Wind> 6* The squirrel runs away.
* Chad stomach begins to rumble again.
<Lunar`Girl> ... you know, that squirrel somehow seems familiar...
* Snipe hands Chad some popcorn.
<Snipe> That's because he's Grave's arch enemy.
* Colephantus looks down at Ted and then kneels beside him. He pulls his hand back and attempts to chop his neck. To KO him.
<Wind> 6* Ted grabs Cole's hand and flips him right over the edge.
<Lunar`Girl> Some arch enemy
* Chad grabst he popcorn and begins muching it
<Gravedigger> Isn't it everyone's arch enemy?
<Snipe> Point.
<Colephantus> NRP: Dude...
* Colephantus attempts to grab the ring to hold on.
<Gravedigger> That manager was my single arch enemy.
<Wind> 6* Ted attempts to stomp on Cole's fingers.
<Slasher> You know...You had a lot of Arch Enemies.
<Gravedigger> No I didn't.
* Colephantus attemps to flip back up and into Ted.
<Slasher> Yes you did.
<Wind> 6* Ted is knocked up into the air.
* Colephantus appears above Ted and brings two hand down for his stomach.
<Wind> 6* Ted is hit in the stomach and slams into the ring hard. He's KOed.
* Granji has joined #taw
<Wind> 6* The crowd goes wild.
* Katrina` cheers
<Snipe> Hm. Cole's slower than I thought.
* Colephantus lands and is obiously pissed now. He nods lightly to the fans and then steps out of the ring and walks over to the others.
* Chad holds the back upto his mouth and tilts his head back as he begins munching down the remains of the popcorn
* Colephantus seems to be cursing under his breath.
<Wind> 6* Slasher is called up to fight Faceless.
<Gravedigger> Who else was my arch enemy?
* Colephantus leans against the wall and stares at the ring.
* Snipe eyes Cole.
* Slasher cracks his neck and walks over to the ring, hopping up onto it.
<Colephantus> See what happens whenever I fuck around and try to get the peoples attention. I almost lose.
<Wind> 6* A person with his face burnt off steps up.
<Colephantus> To a dude...named Ninja Ted...
<Snipe> I'm getting Ted's autogarph.
* Katrina` watches Cole's anger, then turns back to the next fight.
<Colephantus> Man I woulda moved to friggin Tsiv space if I lost to him...*sighs*
<Snipe> ...wait, that faceless person...
* Slasher walks over to the center and bows to Faceless.
<Wind> <Faceless> I will kick your sorry ass into tomorrow.
<Slasher> Long time no see Maestro.
<Snipe> ...didn't he die? Like, over and over?
<Lunar`Girl> Who is that?
* Chad looks forward, the bag of popcorn stuck on his face.
<Wind> 6* Maestro jumpkicks at Slasher.
* Slasher hops backwards, pushing Mae's foot down as it flies at him
<Gravedigger> Yeah, that tends to happy with a lot of our enemies.
<Snipe> I'm suing Death.
* Slasher slides into a loose fighting stance and leaps foward at Mae returning with a roundhouse kick.
<Wind> 6* Maestro is hit hard and falls to the ground. He seems to be defeated already.
<Lunar`Girl> Wow, that Maestro guy is pathetic.
* Slasher hops backwards slides back into his loose fighting stance.
<Slasher> Get up.
<Colephantus> He's not finished.
<Wind> 6* Maestro stands up and hits a button. A gear flies into the stadium. Maestro flips into the gear and tries to punch SLasher with it.
* Wind just stands there.
* Snipe eyes this.
<Colephantus> Wait...thats legal?
<Snipe> I...I don't think so..
* Slasher disappears as the fist goes through him, he reappears ontop of the gear.
<Wind> 6* The gear's cannons fire at Slasher, trying to hit him off.
<Lunar`Girl> ...the hell?
* Slasher phases away again as the cannons shoot harmlessly into the air.
<Gravedigger> Shouldn't we, uh, do something?
<Colephantus> Slasher can handle it.
<Snipe> ....are we suppose to?
* Colephantus looks at Wind. "Apparently this is good for entertainment..."
<Wind> <Maestro> I've prepared for this moment, Hunters! 6He suddenly aims his cannons at the ring.
<Lunar`Girl> We might disqualify him if we help... but if he seems in trouble, we'll have to
* Wind just watches with his head tilted.
* Slasher appears infront of the cannon and hurls a chi-ball into it.
<Wind> 6* The cannon explodes, knocking the gear toward the crowd.
* Slasher falls then phases away, reappearing behind it, he launches another ball into it's backside.
<Wind> 6* The Gear is hit and knocked toward the ring.
<Gravedigger> ...WE might be disqualified?
<Snipe> ....man, Maestro still stucks.
<Snipe> sucks
<Gravedigger> I think the match is already forfeit, here.
* Colephantus chuckles.
* Slasher disappears once more and appears at the hatch and punches it with all his strength
<Lunar`Girl> Yeah... I think the SQUIRREL could take him.
<Wind> 6* The Gear lands on the ring and the hatch is punched in. Maestro leaps out of the hatch and fires his gun at Slasher.
<Wind> <Maestro> I am the best pilot EVER!
<Colephantus> yeah. Now he is DQed.
* Slasher is shot in the shoulder, sending him spiraling onto the Gear.
* Colephantus looks up at Wind.
<Wind> 6* Maestro leaps out of the inside onto the gear. He fires at Slasher some more.
* Wind is talking to the judges.
* Slasher begins rolling backwards, as if waiting for something.
<Wind> <Wind> *Grabs a microphone* I'm afraid Maestro is DISQUALIFIED FOR USING A GUN.
<Colephantus> ....
<Wind> 6* Maestro comes to a stop.
<Colephantus> I wonder if he'll let us take care of him?

* Snipe rubs the back of his head.
<Snipe> That was kind of sad.
<Lunar`Girl> I know..
* Snipe gets called up to fight a rather large opponent twice his size. He hurries and jumps up onto the ring as the judges pull the gear off.
* Slasher looks over at his shoulder.
<Slasher> Only if the Infirmary oks me to continue fighting.
<Gravedigger> Don't trip and fall, Snipe!
* Snipe steps up onto the ring. His attitude and stance changes radically as he closes his eyes.

<Snipe> 6* The crowd just stares in silence.
* Colephantus watches Snipe. "Well I can say he hasn't weakened any at all."
* Snipe waves at the crowd as he walks off the stage.
<Chad> ...*face faults*
<Lunar`Girl> No way you can beat that, Chad.
<Colephantus> ....And he said I should give the person a chance....
* Snipe rejoins the others.
<Chad> Yes...Yes I can.
<Lunar`Girl> I'd like to see you try.
<Wind> 6* Chad is called up to fight someone
<Lunar`Girl> Okay, lets see who Chad's fighting..
<Chad> My turn! *sprints towards the ring, flipping up onto the stage.
<Wind> 6* Someone dressed much like Dahok steps onto the stage.
<Lunar`Girl> <Terra> *blinks, somewhere in the audience*
<Snipe> Now that's an oddly dressed fellow.
* Colephantus just watches Chad.
<Katrina`> Go Chad! 6She claps.
<Lunar`Girl> Go Chad!
* Chad walks towards the center and bows before his opponent.
<Wind> 6* The Brahnk Monk bows back, then shifts into a fighting position.
* Chad shifts into a low crouching like stance, much like his fathers.
<Wind> 6* The Monk suddenly kicks out at Chad with amazing speed and agility.

* Chad is caught off guard and slides backwards from the kick
<Wind> 6* The Monk flips into the air and comes kicking downward from above Chad.

* Chad pushes himself up and leaps into the air thrusting his hands into the air.
* Chad lands and leaps off the side to the Monk.
<Lunar`Girl> Despite most of them not standing a chance, I'm glad some others joined the tournament
<Wind> 6* Wind walks over to the microphone, waiting for the crowd to die down. When it does, he grabs the microphone. "Well, the first part of the tournament is now over. The surviving contenders shall move onto the next round. And we'll begin the next bracket now. U Taker is up to fight the Mysterious Revengeseeker.
<Chad> Good fight! *he reaches his hand out to the monk*.
* Gravedigger sips on a drink as he watches the matches
<Wind> <Monk> *shakes Chad's hand* You are a talented young man.
<Lunar`Girl> ... Mysterious Revengeseeker?
<Gravedigger> ...Wonderful.
<Lunar`Girl> That doesn't sound good
<Snipe> ....6Looks around, paranoid now.
* Gravedigger shrugs and heads for the rin
<Colephantus> Good Luck Grave.
<Chad> Ahh...*he rubs the back of his head laughing* You've got speed for someone of your build tho.
<Wind> <Monk> You flatter me.
<Wind> 6* Suddenly, a bound of toys builds up in the ring in front of Grave.
<Wind> (mound)
* Snipe edges behind Cole.
<Lunar`Girl> <Terra> ... no... it can't be...
<Gravedigger> What the..
<Wind> 6* The toys fall apart and a man stands there in a manager outfit. He points at Grave. "YOU!"
* Snipe groans
* Colephantus glances at Snipe.
<Colephantus> You know this fella?
<Lunar`Girl> <Terra> ... It isn't. *breathes a sigh of relief*
* Gravedigger smacks his face
<Chad> Well it was fun fighting you, maybe next year.
* Chad bounces off to the others.
<Wind> <Monk> I look forward to it.
<Gravedigger> Why can;t I get a real opponent...
<Wind> 6* The Manager suddenly rushes at Grave and begins to try to punch him.
* Gravedigger grabs the manager by the neck
<Wind> <Manager> URK!
<Gravedigger> Didn't you DIE?
<Wind> <Manager> ... yes, actually.
* Gravedigger facefaults
* Slasher comes walking back onto the arena field.
<Wind> 6* The Manager suddenly punches Grave - but it's not an ordinary human's punch, it's like steel.
* Gravedigger rolls across the ring
<Gravedigger> OW
* Gravedigger rubs the side of his face. "Seriously, ow!"
<Wind> 6* The Managers lands. He flexes his arm. "And this is a robotic body built to extract REVENGE>"
<Snipe> ...holy shit.
<Wind> 6* The Manager rushes at Grave, blurring across the ring. He attempts to football kick him out of the ring at the high speed.
<Lunar`Girl> ... robomanager?
* Snipe makes a face.
* Slasher does a doubletake when he see's the Manager standing in the ring.
* Gravedigger blocks the kick with a raised shin to the side of the manager's leg
<Snipe> ...dear God! He died and his brain was saved!
* Colephantus is now known as Chris|Gone
<Lunar`Girl> This is ridiculous
<Wind> 6* The Manager topples over Grave, hits the ring, and slides to his feet. He stands there.
* Gravedigger blinks
<Wind> 6* The Manager touches a button on his arm, increasing his power level.
* Snipe tilts his head.
<Snipe> His power...is increasing...?
<Gravedigger> ..That CAN'T be legal!
* Wind is debating it with the judges. The judges just shrug.
<Wind> 6* The manager grabs Grave and begins to shake him roughly, trying to knock him senseless.
* Gravedigger 's mouth gapes. Sighing, he turns back to the manager. "Alright, fi-ACK!"
* Gravedigger thrashes about, before he rears his head back and headbutts the manager
<Wind> 6* The Manager drops Grave as he stumbles back. He mashes the button some more.
<Snipe> ....you know, if he keeps that up, he might become stronger than all of us.
<Lunar`Girl> How... how can he do that?
<Slasher> ...Probably not...If anything he'll overload and explode.
<Snipe> Yeah, Slasher's probably right.
* Gravedigger runs and jumps into the air, thrusting his feet out and dropkicking his opponent directly in the chest
<Wind> 6* The Manager is knocked back. As he regains his balance, he aims his hand at Grave and it shoots off, the fist flying right at Grave's head.

<Wind> 6* The fist, meanwhile, turns back like a boomerang, flying back toward Grave from behind.
* Chad stomach begins to grumble again.
* Snipe hands Chad a papercup.
* Coolix has joined #TAW
* Chad grabs it, looking into it.
<Wind> NRP: Shit, I knew Arono was going to compete, too.
<Snipe> 6* It's empty.
<Coolix> NRP: But of course!

<Chad> NRP: Oh dear god...

<Snipe> So>?
* Chad sniffs her.
<Chad> She smells like a wet cat...
<Wind> 6* The Manager blurs, appearing in front of Grave. He throws a super punch at him.

<Lunar`Girl> That's a secret!
<Snipe> .....6He rubs his chin
* Gravedigger catches the edge of the ring and slides off - His momentum hangs in him in mid-air momentarily
<Lunar`Girl> .oO(Not a very good one, but still...)
<Wind> 6* The Manager, like an idiot, rushes right off after him.
* Gravedigger swings back and around and smashes his feet into the manager's face
<Wind> 6* The Manager is hit, falling back against the side of the ring. He desperately tries to hold on.

<Slasher> But he doesn't have his shovel anymore.
* Gravedigger charges towards the manager and leaps high up into the air
<Slasher> NRP: RIght now, not anymore.
<Wind> 6* The Manager finally pulls himself up, glancing up at Grave.
* Gravedigger flying kicks the manager square in his ugly, ugly face!
<Wind> 6* The manager is knocked back and onto the ground. His body explodes, sending his head flying off. As his head lays there, he begins to talk again. "HE RUINED ME! THE BASTARD RUINED ME!!!!!" 6The judges carry the head off.
<Wind> 6* The crowd applauds Grave once again.
<Lunar`Girl> ... I wonder who the next weirdo will be.

* Gravedigger 's jaw drops
<Gravedigger> You thought WHAT?!
* Lunar`Girl heads into the ring.
<Snipe> He seeme really determined!
<Slasher> He did...
<Lunar`Girl> .oO(This time, I'll have to go all out..)
<Gravedigger> ...
<Snipe> I mean, the whole robot body built JUST to fight you? That's really something.
<Gravedigger> ...You guys suck. *folds his arms and pouts*
<Slasher> And making to constantly power up...That impressive.
* Chad hops onto the ring and begins to stretch out

<Snipe> I bet those two are pretty evenly matched.
* Chad lands and spins around again throwing a kick out at LG's head.
* Lunar`Girl lands, and flips into the air above Chad
<Snipe> ...unless Lunar Girl has some super hidden ability..

* Lunar`Girl steps back, rubbing her knuckles

<Snipe> WHAM! I told you!

* Slasher smacks his forehead.
<Slasher> God we were both bad influences.
* Lunar`Girl circles Chad warily, still not over the last hit
<Snipe> How odd..I think Hotaru is giving Chad a nasty look.
<Chad> Squishy. *squats and leaps forward throwing fast roundhouse kick*
<Slasher> Must be a feminist.
* Lunar`Girl disappears, teleporting behind Chad, and kicking at his back

* Chad pounds his fists onto the ground and begins sprinting at LG.
* Lunar`Girl sidesteps, kicking at Chad's side
* Chad stumbles forward from the kick and slams down, sliding across the ring on his stomach.
<Snipe> I think the boob squeeze made the Lunar Girl angrier and more powerful.
* Chad pushes himself up again, and pulls off his sweatshirt, hurling it off the ring, where it hits the ground very quickly.
<Wind> 6* The girls in the crowd ooooooh at Chad.

<Snipe> I heard a rumor, Grave, that Wien uses Justin's hand to cast voodoo magic on his enemies.
<Slasher> It's not a rumor, I saw it with my own eyes once.
<Lunar`Girl> Don't think I'm finished. I'm not even close to it.
* Chad plants his feet and begins to dash at LG.
<Gravedigger> He got rid of that thing years ago.
<Snipe> He did? Where?
<Gravedigger> ...The trash...
* Lunar`Girl jumps up and over
<Wind> 6* Somewhere in the galaxy, a trashcollector is jumped by a bone hand strangling him.

<Gravedigger> That Lunar Girl is sexy, too.
<Snipe> ...she's like 16 or 17!
<Gravedigger> C'mon, man, you don't know that.
* Snipe eyes LG again
<Snipe> Hmmm. Her breast size could be that of a 19 year old.
* Chad regains his composure seeing ash e never got attacked.
* Lunar`Girl now fires a psi-blast at Chad
<Slasher> You're sick John...Very sick.
<Snipe> What?!
<Gravedigger> Speaking of sexy, where'd Kat run off to?
* Katrina` can be seen stretching on the other side of the arena, watching the fight.
* Chad is nailed by it, which sends him several feet forward, oddly enough tho the Psi-Blast didn't have it's full effect.
<Snipe> You try to bang my little sister, Grave, and I'll bang you with my fist.
* Chad turns around and sprints at LG once again
<Gravedigger> ...That's gross, Snipe. I don't swing that way.
<Snipe> I...er...I hate you.
<Gravedigger> You're married!
<Snipe> To TWO women I might add.
* Lunar`Girl jumpkicks again, this time at Chad's head
<Wind> 6* The crowd seems divided on who to root for.
<Gravedigger> Slasher's right, you ARE sick.
<Snipe> Well, my wives have sex with each other more than they do me.
* Chad slides under her foot and grabs onto it, he plants his foot and twists, throwing her towards the edge
<Gravedigger> ...That's sad.
* Snipe hangs his head.
<Snipe> I know.
<Slasher> Guess you aren't enough of a man for one of them even.
* Lunar`Girl flies towards the edge, then teleports above Chad, moving to stomp him
* Snipe gives Slasher the bird.,
<Snipe> So, who do you guys think Lunar Girl really is? The lone survivor of the planet Lunarius?
<Gravedigger> I hope not.
* Chad looks around to see where she went and gets a boot to the head.
<Snipe> Her fighting style is unique. It sort of remind me of a ninja's.
<Slasher> Or like Sil's?
* Lunar`Girl jumps off Chad's head, and lands nearby
<Snipe> Whoaaa...I think you're right.
* Chad squats down, grabbing his head in pain.
<Chad> GAH!
<Lunar`Girl> NRP: <Snipe> Lunar Girl is SILOUETTE!
<Gravedigger> There are too many damn ninjas around these days.
<Zephyne> <Sil> ...most of them are just imitations.
* Snipe jumps, grabbing his chest.
* Slasher turns to Snipe.
* Lunar`Girl picks up Chad and throws him towards the edge of the arena
<Snipe> ....I knew she was there.
<Gravedigger> No you didn't. You didn't even have your glasses on.
* Chad snathes down, grabbing onto LG's hand and rolls behind her so that he lands behind her, he uses the momentum to flip her over his back and throw her towards the edge.
* Katrina` bends backwards, planting her hands on the ground. She then does a handstand.
<Snipe> .... I...I can see fine..I'm not..old..
* Lunar`Girl spins in midair, surprised by this, and lands on the arena edge
<Slasher> Glad you could finally come down Sil.
* Snipe squints at Grave who is 1 foot away.
<Zephyne> <Sil> ...view up there is worse than the nosebleed section.
<Gravedigger> Those robot bodies are lookin' pur-reet-ee good right about now, eh old buddy?
* Chad begins to hop bounce from side to side towards LG.
<Snipe> Those robot bodies have nothing on me and my package. And don't you forget it.
<Zephyne> <Sil> ......
* Lunar`Girl moves away from the edge of the arena, glad she wasn't knocked out
<Gravedigger> ...You mean the one that's collecting dust?
<Snipe> Yeah....that's the one. Ass.
* Chad plants his foot and dashes towards LG, dropping low, going for a tackle kick.
* Lunar`Girl waits, then jumps over at the last second
<Gravedigger> I lvoe you too, Snipe
* Chad twists onto his stomach and plants his hands, he then launches himself forward to where he thinks LG is going to land and prepares to shoulder tackle her.
<Snipe> I liked you better when you were a mute. Just so you know.
<Slasher> It was more peaceful.
* Lunar`Girl lands.. then is tackled by CHad, sliding backwards
* Chad presses his assault and grabs onto LG and begins to push her towards the opposite edge.
<Gravedigger> I liked you better when you had crabs.
* Snipe pulls out his comm. link, putting it to his ear.
<Snipe> Hello? Oh, hold on, he's right here. 6Holds it out to Grave. "Someone here says you ruined him."
* Lunar`Girl is pushed back by Chad's assault, barely able to hold her own
<Gravedigger> Sweet.
* Gravedigger takes the comm and closes the link

<Wind> 6* All the men in the audience try to see if they can catch any skin.
<Snipe> Wow. Chad plays dirty.
* Katrina` pauses to see if this is the end for Lunar Girl.
<Gravedigger> Yeah...he do...*trails off, drooling*
<Slasher> And teleporting isn't?
<Zephyne> <Sil> ...no.
<Slasher> Damn you Sil.
* Lunar`Girl kicks back at Chad, landing on the edge once more
* Chad lands on his back and looks upto see what will happen.
<Chad> NRP: *Wonders how she can see where he's at?
* Chad flips himself up and begins to dash at LG once again.
<Gravedigger> NRP: Woman's intuition
* Lunar`Girl pulls her head back out of her shirt, teleporting at the last second, more by accident than design.
* Chad slides to a halt then leaps forward and spin kicks, expecting LG to try the same trick again.
<Snipe> So, Sil, I'm guessing you're rooting for the arch nemesis -- Lunar Girl.
<Gravedigger> What is it with you and arch enemie today?
<Snipe> Well, I never had an arch nemesis unlike YOU
<Gravedigger> You had the crabs.
* Lunar`Girl does her best to dodge, but is still hit by the kick, flying backwards
<Snipe> God I hate you all.
* Chad spins fully around and decides to go all out and push his attack, he sprints at her why she flys backwards and leaps into the air kicking at her again.
* Lunar`Girl spins in mid-air, teleporting again, but just a second too late this time
<Wind> NRP: So it hit...or did she teleport?
<Lunar`Girl> NRP: It hit
* Chad lands on the ground panting
<Snipe> Uh oh.... is this the END for LUNAR GIRL? 6He says dramatically.
<Gravedigger> ...Stop that.
<Snipe> Stop what?
<Zephyne> <Sil> *twists Snip
<Zephyne> <Sil> *twists Snipe's arm* ...cheer for Lunar girl.
* Lunar`Girl lands, seeming winded for a second..
<Snipe> URK!!! GO LUNAR GIRL! 6He shouts in a high pitched girly voice.

<Chad> Would you give up already!
<Lunar`Girl> Why don't you...?

* Lunar`Girl glows slightly as she pants
* Snipe pauses, no longer showing pain on his face as he eyes Lunar Girl

* Lunar`Girl keeps pushing Chad back, the blast of energy continuing, despite her tiredness
<Snipe> I KNEW she had a super attack.
* Chad begins to slide closer to the edge as the psionic energy ripples around him.
<Snipe> Chad's psionic immuneness is holding out...but I think it's not enough. That attack is amazing.
* Lunar`Girl keeps up the beam, but the effort is wearing her out quickly
<Slasher> His bodies never expereienced such psionics before so it's a miracle it's able to hold anything off at all.
* Wind notes Lunar Girl's body getting weaker and weaker as he scans the fight.
<Snipe> What kind of psionic power IS that?
<Lunar`Girl> <Hotaru> *watches, eyes wide*
<Gravedigger> Psionic-beat-the-hell-out-of-you?
* Chad slides within 3 feet of the edge, sweat begins pouring off him.
<Zephyne> NRP: <Emily> Are you sure she's your daughter? That looks like something Andrea would do.
<Lunar`Girl> Just... a little... further...
<Snipe> Wait...if her psionic power is enough to get past his barrier...that move is like..
<Slasher> Apparently she's adopted some of your talent.

<Wind> 6* The crowd begins to fall into a hush whisper.
<Wind> 6* The ring itself begins to show minute cracks.
* Chad loses his push and slides backtowards the edge again, it would seem he's about to lose out.
* Lunar`Girl struggles to stay concious, almost exhausted by the effort...
<Lunar`Girl> <Hotaru> GO LUNAR GIRL!
<Slasher> COME ON CHAD!
<Snipe> LUNAR GIRL!
<Lunar`Girl> <Hotaru> LUNAR GIRL!
* Katrina` just watches, not rooting for either since they're both friends.

<Zephyne> NRP: Ack!
* Lunar`Girl 's beam fades. "I... won..." And then she passes out in the middle of the arena
<Zephyne> <Sil> *releases Snipe's arm*
* Chad grabs onto the edge and hangs there for several seconds, before his grip lets go and he slams onto the ground.
<Wind> 6* The judges stand there, then they begin to whisper to see who is victory - Lunar Girl, who remained in the ring but passed out first, or Chad, who hit the ground seconds later.
<Lunar`Girl> <Terra> That was some fight...
<Snipe> That was ... intense.
<Slasher> He's gonna sleep like a baby tonight.
<Wind> 6* The crowd waits while the judges debate.

* Snipe glances at Grave.
<Snipe> Were we ever that young and spirited?
* Gravedigger snores as he sleeps standing up
