Anime Death Tournament Interlude (between Round 2 and 3)
The Tournament was on hold, pending further investigation of the
barrier. With no more battles left anyway, the victorious fighters returned
to their rooms. Defeated warriors were visiting the hospital.
A lot of fighters, since they hadn't gone into the ring just yet,
were eating or practicing in one of the many practice rooms. Some were
enjoying the free spas and hotsprings, while others just sat in their rooms,
spitting out mental or verbal curses towards various people.
Skyler Sands was one who was eating, but in a daze. He had heard
how good Gourry Gabriev was via other peoples comments near him. Most were
"people's"
betting on Gourry chopping poor Skyler into itty-bitty pieces or at the very
least, stomping him totally. Juri sat next to him, smiling and eating at a
pace that might've seemed rather rushed for her. Skyler, had he not still
been in a daze, would've queried as to what had caused her good mood.
Skyler: Probably not. Juri's a very private person. If it's important,
she'll tell me when she's ready.
Lina looked at Sylphiel, who, once again, was glaring at Skyler. No
doubt thinking of death threats.
Skyler: Who's Sylphiel? And not to worry, i'ts a light crossbow, and
Gourry can get rid of the bolt just by flexing his stomach muscles....
"It's all right, Amelia. Somehow I doubt Skyler or Juri are going
to spill the beans about anything we say. Also, there are no cameras in
Skyler: We won't tell if you won't.
"Now, I know my expectations are quite high for your powers, but the
sooner we can get rid of this barrier, the better." Washu told him.
"Right. I've got just the spell for getting rid of barriers like
this." Drayko said.
"I'll just step back and let you work." Washu said, before leaping
"YAWA OG YAWA OG REIRRAB LIVE YAWA OG YAWA OG!" Drayko intoned.
Ah, the Zatara school of magic.
Enjoying this,
SKJAM!
