"Why do we need to take a boat?" Zero groaned

"Because the island is over seas?" Crystal said

"Then there's no way in hell I'm going" Zero said

"What, why?" Crystal asked

"I am... terrified of boats" Zero said looking at the table

"Really!?" Crystal shouted

"You yell so much" Hermès said

"Shut up" Crystal said angrily

"What is an improvisation that we can do to get to the island, instead of using a boat?" Flash asked

"Nothing at all" Crystal said

"We could try keeping you asleep for the entire trip" Flash said

"The Trip should take about two days" Crystal said

"Nope nope nope nope, not going on a boat for two days" Zero said

"Why not try to be more excited about it like, what if you were a... pirate?" Crystal asked

"Do I get a straw hat?" Zero asked

"If that makes you get on a boat, sure" Crystal said

"Can Flash have three swords?" Zero asked

"Oh and you can navigate us to get there" Zero said

"Does Frost know how to cook?" Zero asked

"Can Supesu use a slingshot?" Zero asked

"Enough!" Crystal shouted

"You don't get a hat just when we need to, get on the boat and tough it out" Crystal said

"Fine but if I'm scared the whole time I'll blame it on you" Zero said

"It'll probably be a big boat so if it's the waves you don't like we'll barely feel them" Crystal said

"Really? Oh that makes things so much better" Zero said

"But where do we get money for a big boat?" Zero asked

"A large boat would usually cost about five hundred thousand gold" Flash said

"Five hundred thousand!?!?!?" Zero and Crystal yelled

"Where do we even get that money?!" Zero asked

"If it makes you stop yelling, there is supposed to be a fighting tournament here in the main kingdom later today" Hermès said

"What's the prize money?" Zero asked

"One Million Gold" Hermès said

"That much!?" Zero shouted

"Ohohoho we're entering" Zero said to Flash and Crystal

"What's the name of the tournament and where do we sign up?" Flash asked

"There should be a signup area outside the main kingdoms colosseum, and the signup fliers should say Scontrarsi Tournament" Hermès said

"Then let's hurry up" Zero said bolting out of the pub

"Shouldn't we inform Nova?" Flash asked chasing after Zero

-at a dark area-

"Hey I found this flier" Sigmund said holding up a Scontrarsi Tournament flier

"What is it?" Someone said

"It's for a fighting tournament for one million gold and I want you in it" Sigmund said

"Oh man I'm getting excited for this I can finally show off what I can do!" The Man shouted

"Go get em" Sigmund said

-at the main kingdom colosseum-

"Oh cool there's a booth" Zero said looking at the front of the colosseum

"Would you be interested in signing up for the tournament?" A Woman behind the booth asked

"Uh yeah, us three" Zero said

"Well you need to do it individually" The Woman said

"Alright uhh where do I sign?" Zero asked

"You put the name you want to go by right here, any background you want to mention, and your fighting style" The Woman said pointing at multiple sections of a paper

Zero proceeded to sign on the paper

"Name: Zero

Background (Optional): Green Time

Fighting style:Blasting and Punching?"

"I will take that, and you will be registered as number fifty eight " The Woman said

"When does the tournament start?" Zero asked

"It should start in about an hour, everyone who wished to participate have already signed up" The Woman said

"May I get one of those papers?" Flash asked

"Same here" Crystal said

"Of course" The Woman said giving Flash and Crystal a paper

Flash signed

"Name: Godspeed Flash

Background (Optional): Royal guards Green Time

Fighting style: Swordsman"

Crystal signed

"Name: Diamond

Background: Royal Guard

Fighting style: Brawler/Weapons"

"I'll take those" The woman said

"You sir are number fifty nine, and you miss are number sixty" The Woman said

"Thank you" Flash and Crystal said

"Alright let's head on up!" Zero said

Zero, Flash, And Crystal all went inside of the colosseum

"Why did you sign as diamond?" Zero asked Crystal

"I didn't really want to use my real name" Crystal said

"Oh yeah we could have named ourselves something else! I could have been "The Elegant Killer" Zero said

"Uh huh, how about we just keep you as Zero" Crystal said

A loud speaker turned on

"All contestants of the Tournament shall meet at the middle of the colosseum" The Announcer said

"Come to think of it, this is the same colosseum that we fought in for the Royal Guard exams" Zero said

"I've known that" Flash said

"Nobody cares" Zero said glaring at Flash

"If you and I happen to end up fighting I will finally best you" Flash said

"I'm winning this whole thing" Zero said

"Sure you are, just wait until I toss you out of the arena" Crystal said

"Even if you become a giant I could still chuck you right out of this place" Zero said closing his eyes pointing his head up

"Don't get too cocky" Crystal said angrily looking at Zero

The Three made it to the middle of the colosseum where the arena was

"Now that all sixty contestants are here I will have to make a quick announcement" Brock said

"Oh hey it's the guy from the exam" Zero said pointing at Brock

"Due to the large amount of contestants we will have to make due with a battle Royale and the last fourteen contestants left standing will face each other in a bracket style tournament" Brock said

"This'll make things interesting" Zero said

"Now for our audience!" Brock shouted

"Prepare for an explosive battle with some of the finest warriors in the kingdom! Prepare for the beginning of the Twentieth annual Scontrarsi Tournament!" Brock yelled

The Audience roared with excitement

"Get ready! Battle Royale! Begin!" Brock said as he created a pole for him to stand on made out of steel

-Character: Brock-

Main abilities: Earth

Subclass Abilities: Steel

Raiki: Seki

Appearance: Brock should be pictured as a tall adult male with a well sculpted body in a heavy duty vest with baggy jeans, boots and a pompadour hairstyle

Dust and smoke started flying everywhere as you could hear punches and slashes and explosions

"Five people have been eliminated!" Brock shouted

The fighting continued

Crystal threw off her shoes and turned giant

"A Giant? What could this bring to the fight?" Brock said

Crystal kneeled down and grabbed seven people

"Bye bye" Crystal said as she threw them out of the arena

"Twelve people have been eliminated!" Brock shouted

"Continuous light slashes" Flash said as he began slashing every area around him at light speed making dust fly everywhere

"I can't get close to that guy" a young man said

"I wonder if he's the guy I have to use it on" The young man said

-Character: Platzen-

Main Abilities: none

Subclass abilities: Explosion, Self destruct, Detonate

Raiki: None

Appearance: Platzen should be pictured as a average height teenager (16) with spiked red hair, a jacket with a high collar, black pants and black loafers

"Bomb Burst!" Platzen yelled as he fired off an explosion at flash

"Reversal" Flash said as he spun his sword around the explosion and fired it back

"Uh oh" Platzen said jumping out of the way of the explosion

The explosion blew away thirteen people

"Twenty Five people have been eliminated!" Brock shouted

"I guess that works too" Platzen said

Zero fired off beams from his fingers with his hand in the shape of a finger gun

"One point, two points, three points, four points, five points" Zero said as he blasted five people

"Thirty people have been eliminated! Only six more need to get eliminated!" Brock shouted

"He's a lot more enthusiastic" Zero thought

"What's wrong am I too fast?" A man said speeding around three people punching them repeatedly

"I wanna go for that dude" Zero said

Zero charged at the Man they were ready to begin fighting

Crystal had sat down and rested her head on her hand

"Is there more than one of that guy?" Zero said looking to his side while charging forward

Someone ran towards Crystal and tried punching her leg

"No matter what you try I'm not gonna budge" Crystal said to a person trying to push her

Crystal flicked the person away

"Thirty Four People have been eliminated! Stop fighting!" Brock yelled

"Dammit" Zero said

"I'll just see you later in the tournament, if you're even that strong" The Man said

Crystal went back to her original size

"That was easy" Crystal said

"I hope the contestants who moved on will actually prove a challenge" Flash said

"Hey you, you were pretty cool out there!" Platzen said to Flash

"Oh where are my manners, names Platzen I come from around here" Platzen said holding his hand out to Flash

"Godspeed Flash..." Flash said shaking Platzen hands

"That is a kickass name!" Platzen said clapping

"Who's this guy, he seems cool" Zero said

"Oh, names Platzen" Platzen said shaking Zeros hand

"You a member of the Royal Guard?" Zero asked

"Nah I'm not into that stuff I just like fighting" Platzen said

"After this tournament how about me and you hang out a bit, you seem like a cool guy" Zero said

"It would be my pleasure" Platzen said

"He seems nice" Zero said

"And Crystal your Giant thing is gonna make this real hard for other people" Zero said

"Well that's just my natural advantage" Crystal said confidently

"Also cause there's definitely gonna be dudes attracted to you" Zero said

"Of course there will be, and I'll use it to my advantage" Crystal said

"You are evil" Zero said

"A win is a win" Crystal said

"Attention remaining fighters" Brock said from a loud speaker

"The Brackets will be released now, be sure to prepare for your upcoming fights" Brock said

"Well let's see what we're dealing with" Zero said
