<continued from last time>
      Back in the ring, Kentaro was trying to figure out what Keiya meant.
      "Mistress...? What are you talking about! I've nev...wait... Ranka! You're talking about Ranka aren't you! What have you done to her?!" Kentaro shouted with fist tightening and rising rage painfully restrained.
      Keiya smiled a sadistic grin, sadistic laugh barely checked as he whispered, "That... is something you'll have to find out for yourself..."
      "Argh! I'll KILL YOU!" Kentaro shouted as rage took him and he unleashed a roaring beam of black energy towards his opponent who merely stood there and waited for the beam to hit. Keiya held a sadistic smile on his face as the roaring beam of black energy engulfed him and continuing on to impact the concrete wall protecting the stands. Smoke drifted upward from the crater of what used to be a wall as Kentaro stood there in the arena. The rage that overtook him to unleash that beam drained slowly from him as did the strength the rage gave him as he toppled to rest on all fours with lungs aching to breath.
      And he tensed, rolling to the side, forcing a body that seemed sluggish as he barely avoided a strike from above that would have killed him if he hesitated a little more. The bleeding cut on his cheek proved how he barely escaped having his head cut off as he broke from his roll and into a crouch, taking in the smoke and dust hovering in the air that hid his attacker in a thick mist.
      "Um, I thought you said Keiya has a fighting power of four thousand. How could he take a full-powered blast from Kentaro?" ????? asked.
      "Easy.  His power level isn't going up or down." C-chan responded.
      "WHAT?!" ????? demanded as the music director changed the song "Walkin' On the Sun" by Smash Mouth.
      "During that entire exchange, Keiya's power never even flickered.  That means he's stuck at a certain power level." C-chan explained.
      "Uh, what could do that?" ????? inquired.
      "Let's see, a Pledge of Immortality with a high-powered demon or Mazoku... a wish with the Dragon Balls to never change... and possibly an energy resistant android.  But the last one is well-nigh impossible." C-chan responded.
      As the dust slowly settled, details slowly came into view. The man crouched in the center of the crater was half naked, dressed in a very tight leather pants and matching calf boots with steel straps on the sides. Kentaro suppressed his morbid curiosity as he waited for the dust to settle a little bit more, noticing then the man shook a little before slowly standing up with his back exposed to him. Weird symbols covered most of his back and forearms, inked in red and dripping in what looked like flesh wounds, but the man was not injured as far as Kentaro could tell. Straps of leather encased the man's thighs and forearms with steel buckles gouging painfully onto the flesh and leather alike. He swung his right arm beside him revealing a sword with a blade as red as blood. Slowly, the man turned just as the dust cleared, exposing pale skin to the light of the arena lamps, tattooed like his back with those same weird symbols. Only this time, one huge inverted five-pointed star covered most of his bare chest. Red tears flowed out from the inside corners of his eyes, down past the side of his nose and cheeks. A thick leather choker with a large ring on the front completed his costume.
      The man, Keiya - Kentaro thought, slowly brought his sword in front of him. Bringing the blade close to his lips and licked it's gleaming red blade, all the while giving Kentaro a sadistic glance and watched gleefully his victim rise from a crouch into a defensive stance.        [Yes, how would his blood taste?] Keiya wondered.
      "Are you ready to die?"  Keiya said slowly, pointing the tip of his blade at Kentaro.
      "Hmph! Then come and get me."
      "Here I come..." Keiya replied and dashed forward as he glided through the air, towards Kentaro with sword blade parallel to his body. Kentaro leaped back to avoid the strike that would have cleaved him in half as well as dodged each of the consecutive thrusts and slashes his opponent made and weaved out of Keiya's final thrust with a roll towards him. Catching Keiya off guard as he delivered a rising uppercut to his chin. Knocking him back as he coupled his initial attack with a series of punches and kicks his opponent nimbly avoided�
      Standing from an open walled corridor from atop the stands, Ranka viewed the fight progress below, right hand pressed to her chest and sad almost worried look on her face. She watched helplessly as the battle shifted suddenly to favor Keiya who caught one Kentaro's kicks and using his own momentum lifted and hurled him over his head before slamming him down hard on the concrete arena floor�
      "You..." she heard him shout after he slammed Kentaro to the ground, before lifting Kentaro up again over his head and slamming him again to the ground on his other side. "Can't...Arrrh!" he screamed, lifting Kentaro once again high into the air as he leaped up after him with sword poised above his head. "Fight me like that!" he shouted, slamming the flat of his blade on Kentaro's body and watched as it crashed down to form a small crater on the ground.
      Keiya landed beside him and immediately dropped down to all fours and looked him over like a playful cat as his face hovered just inches above Kentaro's face in sadistic glee. "Aw, does that hurt?"
      "Damn you!" Kentaro said through gritted teeth as he swung his legs around in the hopes of catching Keiya's face with his foot with no luck as Keiya leaped from harms way. Kentaro flipped himself over and leaped back ready for any attack though was caught unprepared as he found his opponent behind him and was unable to block his slash as it left a deep, long, red gash across his back. He rolled forward and into a crouch, but when he looked up found himself face to face with a black narrow rift in space and a clawed hand that grasped his throat as he felt himself being lifted up to dangle above the concrete floor.
      "Aw crap, this doesn't look good for Kentaro.  I've got a few creds on him too." C-chan commented.
      Kentaro caught a glimpse of Keiya through squinted eyes, he had a sadistic smile on his face and his hand buried in that same rift in space.  He seemed to be laughing, suppressing it though as his other hand, free of his sword resting in its sheath beside his left hip, opened another rift in space as he felt pain wrack his body from the numerous claw marks he must have right now.  His lungs burned with the need for air, and exhaustion slowly took its toll as he began to see black spots cross his vision. Not good he thought as he felt consciousness slip as his arms fell weak and lost their grip as they fell beside him, dangling like the rest of his body.
      He didn't see Keiya enter the rift only to emerge at the other end where he was held in the center of ring were both of them now stood.
      "Time to die..." Keiya gleefully said as he pulled back his free hand behind him with the full intent of ripping his opponents heart out.
      "Hold it!" a voice called out from the stands.
      "What?!" Keiya shouted as he glanced back to see the new arrivals in the ring.
      "I, Amelia wil Tesla Sailoon, will not stand by as you attempt to hurt a very nice man who bought me ice cream!" Amelia decreed, leaping down to the ring, followed by a reluctant Zelgadis and Lina.
      Amelia leapt to Kentaro's side, examining him briefly before looking at Keiya.  Her eyes widened and she stood up and pointed at Keiya.
      "You're cheating!" Amelia cried.
      Keiya smiled in a not-so-pleasant manner.
      "How's that?" Keiya asked.
      "You've made the Pledge of Immortality!  I can feel the dark power of a Mazoku!  You reek of evil energy!" Amelia declared.
      Keiya laughed, then suddenly lunged at Amelia.  Before he could even bring his sword near Amelia, his sword met the golden-hilted sword of Zelgadis Greywiers.  Zelgadis cast an Astral Vine on his sword and slashed at Keiya, forcing the madman back into Lina, who smacked Keiya over the head with a mace she had purchased for two silver coins, sending the demon-servant to the floor.
      Keiya tried to slash Lina, but the super-sorceress had already flown over to Zelgadis and Amelia.  Keiya stood up and was prepared to attack when he sensed something behind him.  A-kun stood at the red entranceway, his aura smoldering as he watched and waited.  Keiya turned his attention back to the trio in front of him, only to get a faceful of Amelia's spell, Blem Blazer.  He screamed and clutched his face, staggering backwards before doubling over as Amelia punched him in the stomach followed by a fireball to his face.
      Keiya slashed wildly with his sword-hand, missing Amelia, but striking Zelgadis's stone chest.  Keiya's vision cleared somewhat only for him to see Zelgadis's fist smash into his face, sending him reeling to the ground.
      "I just got this shirt earlier today." Zelgadis growled, motioning to his Metallica t-shirt.
      Keiya stood back up as his vision cleared once more and he growled at the trio of warriors defending Kentaro.  Keiya leapt up and slashed at Zelgadis, but as metal met stone, the bishonen realized that using a mere sword against Zelgadis foolish.  He backed off and came up with a plan.  He lunged forward at Zelgadis, firing a beam of energy to strike the chimera before leaping forth and channeling his Dark Lord's power into his sword.  He scratched out an upside-down five-pointed star on Zelgadis's chest.  The symbol glowed with bright blue energy, causing Zelgadis to yell in pain.

      Somewhere, Gourry Gabriev and Sylphiel were talking.  For some unknown reason, Gourry pulled a six-sided die out of his pocket and rolled it.  It came up a 6.  Gourry cursed and put the die away.
      [I'll never get across the Gorge of Doom with my current encumberance.] Gourry thought.
      "What was that all about, Gourry-sama?" Sylphiel inquired.
      "Oh nothing." Gourry responded before adding, "Your hair got pretty."
      "It's a new shampoo I've been trying called *Shampoo's Shampoo*." Sylphiel answered.

      In the ring, six demons appeared in the ring and attacked Zelgadis.  However, they didn't account for the fact that A) He had stone skin and B) He was immune to almost all physical attacks.  With a quick slash of his blade, Zelgadis dispatched all of the demons and with a rag and some polish, Amelia cleaned the five-pointed star off his chest, thus negating the symbol's power.
      Zelgadis rushed Keiya, socking the Pledged one in the face and in the stomach   in rapid sucession.  Keiya doubled-over.  He may have been able to heal, but even momentarily feeling the pain of Zelgadis' attacks was enough to stagger Keiya.
      During the fight, Kentaro had recovered slightly and was discussing a plan of attack with Lina. It was obvious from the way that Zelgadis and Amelia were fighting Keiya, that they were going to be overwhelmed by sheer stamina, since Keiya was recovering almost as fast as they could strike.
      Keiya knocked Zelgadis and Amelia backwards just as Kentaro leapt into the fight.  But Kentaro found himself unable to land any solid hits and was getting pummeled instead.  It was obvious that Keiya was still in better shape than Kentaro.  Seeing his predicament, Amelia then cast a Diem Wind spell directly above Keiya, catching him off guard and leaving him virtually immobile.  Kentaro took the chance to use his final attack.
      "What the...? Arghhh!!" Keiya screamed as he felt himself unable to move.
      "Kentaro now!" Lina screamed from where she stood as she watched Kentaro leap in to attack. And both she and Zelgadis gasped at what they saw next. Kentaro seemed to shift as multiple layers of the same image of Kentaro running seemed to move ahead of him. He circled Keiya, leaving behind a copy of himself so that four Kentaro's now stood around Keiya who then began to pummel Keiya from all four sides with kicks and punches before all four gave him a rising upper cut sending him air born. And as Keiya hovered in the air, all four Kentaro's landed in sync, the bindings on their arms coming undone as black dragons glowed on their arms. The wind around them began to swirl as each copy began to chant as red circles began to trace themselves on the ground with runes and symbols of alien design. The circles began to glow red as blue aura surround the four men standing in the circle.
      While high above...
      "You-can't...beat me!" Keiya screamed while hovering in air, arms up in the air as dark energy criss crossed across his open palms forming into a dark ball to which he gathered his Master's energy as the chanting below steadily grew to a climax. Keiya released the gathered energy down as each of the four men below made an uppercut, sending four black dragons to spiral upwards and four other dragons to spiral around the first four. Engulfing the beam Keiya fired as well as Keiya himself.
      "NO! NOOOoooooo�.*"
      Silence came swiftly as the energy used in the battle quickly drained out of the Arena. What was left was a crater, ridden arena with crumbling walls and pieces of rock and rubble scattered all over the place. Outside the ring, the slayer's cast and other detectives slowly woke and got up, Lina who was standing off to one side on the arena couldn't help giving a relieved smile. She noticed then Kentaro standing still in that uppercut pose, before slowly fainting and falling back to crash down on the arena floor. Lina ran over to him and cradled his head on her lap, checking to see if he was all right, a quick delve revealed that he would be all right. And she smiled.
      *Crumble�*
      "Huh?" Lina breathed as she glanced over at a pile of rubble that slowly began to shake, she couldn't suppress the worry she felt when her fears were realized.
      *Crash!*
      From out of the rubble emerged Keiya, bleeding though still standing, and he wasn't a happy man as he coughed out blood. He felt dizzy and weak�he wanted to kill, kill that girl, kill them, kill him�Kentaro�must kill�
      "Keiya�" a soft voice said from behind him, stopping his slow walk to that girl and Kentaro. Anger filled him and he turned quickly, hate on his face and blade ready to kill, and he stopped. All anger drained, replaced by pure joy.
      "Mistress�" Keiya said in a voice above worshipful as he fell on his knees before her. Lina glanced over to what Keiya was bowing before and gasped at who she saw. Blond hair, sailor type uniform, amber eyes�
      "Ranka�" Lina breathed as she watched the girl in question open her arms to the man who wanted to kill them. Keiya slowly rose to his feet, joy in his eyes as he felt his mistress embrace� more over when he felt her kiss�
      Lina watched as Ranka slowly lifted her head from Keiya's neck, blood trickling out from a corner of her mouth and watched as she licked the blood off her lips. She shivered when their eyes met, cold amber what was once blue. She didn't know what to say�
      "Take care of him�" Ranka said, sadness in her voice as she lowered her eyes and leaned her head on Keiya's neck, loosing all color as they slowly vanished.
      "Wait!" Lina shouted.
      "Take care of him�"
      And they were gone�
      "What do we do now?" Lina inquired.
      "This is NOT going to be very good news." Zelgadis growled.
      "Maybe Mister Drayko or Miss C-chan can help." Amelia suggested.
      ".... that's not what I'm concerned about.  ????? and C-chan aren't going to let anyone interfere with the Qualifier matches." Zelgadis responded.
      "......." Amelia answered.
      @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@
      ????? and C-chan exchanged glances.
      "Well, uh, time for the official bouts of the night.  First, Jason versus Dewin!" C-chan declared.
      ????? and C-chan began discussing what to do in case Ranka became possessed.
      "We'll just use the Secret Weapon." ????? commented.
      "We have a secret weapon?" C-chan asked.
      "Wait, you didn't order it?  DAMMIT!" ????? asked.
      @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@
      "And so you see, A-kun, we need your help.  As much as we resent the fact." Lina said.
      A-kun looked at her, frowning.
      "Resent the fact?" A-kun inquired.
      "What Lina means to say is that we wanted to handle this ourselves, but we can't locate Ranka at all, which means she'll probably be gated in by this mystery Dark Lord." Zelgadis answered.
      "And C-chan and ????? are probably going to be putting heavy security around the Arena.  Which means that this Dark Lord might be able to get in on the technicality that his energy signature will be similar to Ranka's." A-kun grumbled.
      A-kun thought about it.
      "Fine.  I'll do you and Kentaro both a favor and try not to hurt her too badly.  Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take a nap.  Fighting Loki at maximum human output has drained me." A-kun said, laying down on his bed and instantly falling asleep.
      The three heroes left on their own accord.
      @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@
      With a flash of green energy, three figures appeared in the ring as the opening theme to Duke Nukem 3D begins playing.  The first was about 5'10", wearing thick glasses that never seem to fall off.  He had dark blond/light brown hair and a full red (yes, RED) beard without mustache. He was about three feet wide at the shoulders and was wearing a grey t-shirt, loose blue jeans, steel-toed boots, a beige trenchcoat (which concealed armor from Blood) and a thick backpack full of the crap he wanted to use in combat.  The shotgun in his hands and the look in his eye told everyone that he was Jason.
      The next one was a hot babe with reddish-brown hair and bluish-green eyes.  Standing at about 5'5", she was wearing TIGHT clothes.  She was one of Jason's escorts, Medea.
      The third and final resembled like a cybernated version of Birdie from Street Fighter Alpha/Zero.  He looked like a black-skinned Birdie with dark blue hair and was dressed in grey.  This was Shadow B.  And if you think we're going to stop repeating this sort of thing, think again.
      The crowd patiently awaited Dewin's entrance. Hurriedly and with a lot of noise, Danny, his younger, pudgier and richer brother (and manager), ran up to the ring. In his hands was an offset white field mouse. He put the mouse on the ring, took out a canteen from his pocket and poured its contents over the mouse.
      Nothing happened. Well, there was a wet mouse in the ring but beyond that...
      Danny emptied his pockets on the ring. Which meant a pocket organizer, two wads of ten thousand-dollar bills, a couple of sleeping darts, a HUGE hankie and two cents spilled out. (Every pocket has two cents in it, or the equivalent in the current country's currency. It's like the cheese sandwich and the moldy tomato in the fridge)
      Climbing into the ring, he picked up the hankie and started to shake it. Violently. Suddenly a sleeping Dewin fell out of the hankie.  After Daniel poured the contents of the canteen in his hand on Dewin's head, Dewin yawned and slapped Danny on the top of the head. "Why did you do that!?" He looked around. "Oh."
      Dewin tied the hankie around his neck (It's clearly the cape that Dewin usually wears) and pulled out Danny's shotgun from the inside of his cape and handed it to Danny. He stage-whispered "You did what we planned right?" or "Go ahead as planned right?" or "could I borrow the car tonight?".  No one was certain what was whispered, but it was loud enough that everyone heard at least one version of the three possible sentences. Danny nodded quickly and stepped out of the ring.
      Danny took a deep breath and hollered; "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! DEWIN IS IN THE RING! IT'S TIME TO START!"
      With that, Shao Khan let out a powerful cry of "CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP!", thus starting the fight.  It should be noted that the Outworld Lord has just stepped on a mouse trap an anti-fan of Dewin had been planning to use.  Dewin didn't have to worry about said anti-fan, though.  Shao Khan punished the anti-fan for him.
      Dewin and Jason sized each other up.  Jason was feeling lucky as he had defeated both Cloud Strife and Priss Asagiri, both noted to be nasty fighters.  Dewin was still feeling a bit angry at Sephiroth for kidnapping him before his fight with Ranka.
      "RAAAAH!" Dewin roared, lunging at Jason, flailing wildly.
      Jason backed off and pulled his sword.  Dewin pulled out a metal baseball bat.  They charged at each other, swinging, dodging, poking, jabbing, whirling, gnashing and howling.  Jason kept nicking away at Dewin, but the Great Dewin wasn't falling and his wounds kept healing.  Finally, Dewin kicked Jason, sending the other fighter to his back.  While Jason cursed his armor, he also felt glad as the stomping Dewin was doing on his stomach wasn't as painful.
      "That's it!" Jason said, pulling out his Tesla Cannon and firing.
      Dewin was sent across the ring.  Medea and Shadow B were cheering Jason on as the armored warrior got up and walked over to where Dewin should've been.  Only the other fighter wasn't there.  Suddenly, Dewin dropped from the rigging he had leapt to and smashed Jason across the head.  It wasn't long before Jason found himself missing quite a bit of armor and bleeding a bit.  Plus he was fairly sure Dewin had cracked a rib or two and he had lost his Tesla Cannon.
      Dewin ignored Jason's Tesla Cannon and stalked forward like an enraged Anime Female.  Of course, he'd beat the snot out of anyone who said that to his face unless said person presented the fact that angry Anime Females were a lot more terrifying than angry Anime Males because it was often Anime Males that got angry and thus the sight of an angry Anime Male wasn't as terrifying as an enraged Anime Female.
      Jason drew his sword again and attacked Dewin with insanity that can only be mustered by a guy who forgot his Jetpack in his room and was noticing that he had misplaced another item in the cafeteria.
      He swung at Dewin numerous times, but Dewin managed to avoid being hit everytime.  Okay, MOST of the time.  Dewin was about to counter attack when Jason remembered his sawed-off shotgun.  He pulled it as Dewin prepared to bash his head in.  It was a stand-off.  A contest of wills.  One could attack and duck, but one of them would be slower.  Who would it be?  Then, Jason considered his final secret weapon, which he now realized that he HADN'T left in the cafeteria after all.  He touched it and activated it just before firing.  Dewin's bat connected with Jason's head and bent before Jason fired the both barrels of the shotgun... only to miss.  Dewin rolled out of the way.
      Jason pulled out two Sticky Bombs and threw them.  Dewin managed to dodge the items, but they had a five second fuse.  With a large explosion, Dewin was tossed forward to land at a bad angle in Jason's corner.  Then, Dewin got a brilliant idea.  Jason suddenly noticed that Medea and Shadow B were gone.  And Dewin was looking quite healthy, despite the explosion.  It didn't matter to Jason.  He hurled Sticky Bomb after Sticky Bomb, causing a massive explosion to engulf the entire ring.  When it was all over, Dewin, Medea, Shadow B and Jason were laying scattered across the arena.  Dewin awoke first and thus, won.
      @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@
      "Holy crap!  That had to be one of the cooler fights since, since... well, the last fight." C-chan commented.
      "And now, Thor versus Sailor Moon!" ????? announced, before returning to her game of Immortal Wombat.
      "Why are you playing that?" C-chan inquired.
      "Just 55 more fights and I get to play PONG!" (1) ????? said, grinning as her eyes turned into swirlies.
      @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@
      The song "Flight of the Valkyries" by Wagner began playing.  The sky went dark, thunder and lightning danced in the distance.  When the music reached it's climax, a lightning bolt soared from the sky, through the roof/ceiling into the ring.  Once the brightness settled and the dust cleared, the audience saw Thor, son of Odin, as well as an alternate Urd, Belldandy and Skuld.  The three goddesses of time and fate exited the ring as Thor swung Mjolnir a few times.
      As the opening theme to Sailor Moon began playing, the red doors opened and Usagi Tsukino (aka. Sailor Moon) walked through, waving to the crowd.  Mamoru, Shingo and Chibi-Usa, wearing black tuxedos, dark shades and ear-phones follow, making sure no hentai otakus try anything.  Chibi-Usa waves to her fans and flips off her enemies.  Shingo and Mamoru wave to those who like them and ignore those who don't.
      Usagi steps into the ring and transforms into Sailor Moon (A censorship chip keeps the hentais from seeing her nude (that includes TharzZzDunN) {BOOOOO! BOOOOOOOOOOOOHOHOHOHOHOHO! NYAHAHAHAHAHAHA!  BARF!}).  Usagi stood before the giant form of Thor with a look of confidence.
      [Even Thor Odinson is no match for the Maboroshi no Guinzuishou.] Usagi thought to herself.
      "Ready to fight?" Thor inquired, hefting Mjolnir and smiling at magical girl.
      Usagi raised her new magic wand and pointed it at Thor.
      "You stand no chance against my Shiny Spiral Love Super-Cutesy Ultra-Sexy Mega-Moon Heart Rod!  Give up now so I can beat the crap out of A-kun in the Almost Finals!" Usagi decreed.
      [Luna, where the hell do these corny names come from?] Usagi wondered.
      Thor smiled politely.
      "Uh, go at it." Liu Kang announced.
      Everyone looked at him.
      "Shao Khan went to go get ice cream." Liu Kang answered, shrugging.
      Sailor Moon hurled her tiara at Thor.  Thor raised Mjolnir and a magical shield stopped the tiara.  However, Sailor Moon followed it up with a Moon Princess Halation.  Thor dodged the mega-blast of Moon Energy and the Moon Tiara returned to Usagi's waiting hand.
      "I know better than to rely on just one attack!" Usagi said, smirking.
      Thor raised Mjolnir again and sent a lightning bolt at Usagi, who dodged.  However, the Thunder God raced forward, grabbed her and forced her to the mat in a forceful, yet gentle manner.  Thor politely whistled as he waited Robo to count to three, taking baps to the head and fingernails into the back of his hand in the meantime.
      "Winner: Thor Odinson." Robo declared as his scanners registered Sailor Moon's shoulder had been pressed against the mat for nine seconds.
      @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@
      "And now the last ordinary bout of the night, Kontijaro versus Tracer Zen." C-chan decreed.
      "One more game... one more game... Pong... must play pong...." ????? chanted before falling asleep.
      @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@  @@@@@@
      Kontijaro entered via the red doors, waving to the crowd as he, Psyduck and Pikachu slowly walked down to the ring.  The opening theme to Crono Trigger played over the speakers as the trio made their way slowly to the ring.  Kontijaro stepped into the ring and waved to everyone once again.
      After a few minutes, "Ultra" by KMFDM begins playing as a lean man entered the arena via the blue doors and approached the ring with the stealth of a shadow.  His head is lowered and his eyes glaring at the ring before him, his long, greasy black hair hanging in view, shielding the audience from his deep scowl.  His fists clenched and his teeth ground as the stalker entered the ring.  Slowly and timidly, Sebastion Fitsroy <aka. Bastion> walked down the aisle after Tracer Zen.
      Tracer scowled at Kontijaro's cute friends, causing both of the Pokemon to leap for cover, just in case Tracer decided to slaughter all of them like Satan Kitty had killed Selonian and company.  Kontijaro shifted into a fighting stance.
      "Get it on?" Liu Kang read from the card someone had handed him.
      Kontijaro leapt at Tracer, who drew a pistol.  Kontijaro frantically leapt to one side as Tracer fired.  The maniac formed his hand into a scythe and swung it at Kontijaro who leapt up and summoned all his power for one big attack just before he teased Tracer with a mental note.
      [Your zipper's WIDE open.] Tracer Zen heard in the back of his head.
      Tracer looked out of pure male instinct.
      "LUMINARE!" Kontijaro yelled, spelling the attack in the same fashion as A-kun.
      Tracer was sent reeling as the massive explosion of light energy engulfed most of the ring, knocking Kontijaro out temporarily  Kontijaro re-entered the ring and looked at the stunned Tracer.  Chancing close contact, Kontijaro ran over and pinned Tracer's arms to the ground.
      "1..." Robo counted.
      Tracer was still stunned, but was recovering quickly.
      "2..." Robo counted.
      Tracer remembered where he was.
      "3...  The Winner, Kontijaro." Robo counted.
      Kontijaro was introduced to the sickening feeling of having one's intestines removed through one's back via elongated claws.  Luckily for Kontijaro, Tracer was hit with over eighteen thousand tranquilizer darts (all in the left buttock) and thus, could not do any more damage.
