That's right, we finally got the damn thing done!  Now, on with the show!

      "Hmm, this episode might disappoint the fans.  Oh, who cares?  I'm just glad I'm getting this damn thing done." C-chan declared.

      ============================
      ////////////////////////////
          FINAL THREE ROUNDS
         by C-chan and A-kun
      ////////////////////////////
      ============================

      B-kun, now revived, fumed at the developments.  He had been planning to annoy some of the fighters who had been eliminated in the Almost-Finals.
      "All right, all right, let's see if we can still concoct a plan before the final battle of the finals, okay people?" B-kun demanded.
      "Right boss!" his three nameless minions chirped.

      ^_~ -_-

      A-kun flexed his arm, breaking it out of the cast it had been in the previous week.  Thanks to his former-tap into the Super-Human powers, he still retained an incredibly high recovery factor.  That and the fact that the C-chan had bribed an alternate universe Sylphiel to heal him had left him at full strength.
      "OOSHA!"
      "Shut up, Dan." A-kun snarled.
      "No, you shut up!  YAHOOIE!" Dan Hibiki said, leaping out of the room to go challenge Ryu again.  Dan turned right and raced down the hall.
      It was then that Ryu entered the room.
      "Excuse me, A-kun, but I was wondering if I might ask you a few questions on becoming a Super-Human..." Ryu began.

      ^_~ -_-

      "All right, ladies and gentlemen, we're entering into the final three rounds of the Finals, or the Final Three if we were to make a vague Basketball reference." C-chan said.
      "And I never saw Basketball Dairies." A-kun decreed.
      "That's 'Diaries'." C-chan told him.
      "No thanks, I've read A-chan's." A-kun responded.
      C-chan groaned and rolled her eyes.
      "First up is Skyler Sands versus Kontijaro!" A-kun declared.
      "You just gotta wonder what's going to happen next in this unpredictable tournament." C-chan commented.
      "No you don't." A-kun told her.

      ~_~ ^_-

      Kontijaro entered through the blue 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.
      One might've expected Skyler Sands to have an impressive entrance.  Then again, his fans knew better.  As Eriko Tamura's "Please Smile for Me" song played on the speakers, Skyler Sands entered via the red doors (which were, once again, blown open, this time by Ensign Roy's phaser) and walked casually down the ring with Juri Arisugawa and the Cat-Girl Juri Arisugawa (who was renamed Alice recently - Helpful Notation) following closely behind.  Juri looked rather bored while Alice found herself fascinated with dangling thread on Juri's uniform.  She began tugging and batting the thread.  Skyler entered the ring and adjusted his crossbow.  He drew his fencing sword and got ready for the duel.
      Skyler and Kontijaro sized each other up.  Skyler felt like he was doomed.  He had probably spent all of that SI luck that was supposed to exist in the previous expisode surviving Satan Kitty.  Even with a bag of unknown quarrels, a crazy crossbow and a Lightsaber-foil-thingy, he was pretty much on the short end of the stick.  Meanwhile, Kontijaro was still trying to recover from the fight with Dewin.  While not a particularly over-powered demi-god like that jerk A-kun had been, Dewin was still strong enough to put up a damn good fight and Kontijaro had wasted quite a bit of money trying to regain the strength he had expended throwing all those lightning spells at Dewin.  Not to mention that when Dewin had changed into that copy of the 151st Pokemon, Mew, he had blasted Kontijaro rather brutally.
      So, in short, neither fighter was feeling entirely too confident.
      "RRRRRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRPPPPPPPPP!!!" Shao Khan belched, shaking even the quite earthquake-proof Author Tower.
      "DAAMN!" A-kun commented helpfully.
      Skyler activated his Lightfoil as Kontijaro gathered lightning in his hands.  Both stared at each other.  Kontijaro was worryied about Skyler's Lightfoil reflecting the magic back and Skyler was worried that the lightning would zap him.  Kontijaro unleashed the blast against the mat, causing it to travel along the mat towards Skyler.  Skyler got a brilliant idea and fired his crossbow in front of him.  The metal quarrel slammed into the mat and dutifully absorbed the lightning.
      Kontijaro took the oppurtunity of the distraction to lift the Lightfoil off of Skyler and throw it aside with his telekinesis.  Skyler, noticing that he was missing a weapon, loaded his crossbow again and fired.  Kontijaro noticed the yellow and black marked quarrel and ducked.  The quarrel hit the post behind Kontijaro.  Nothing else happened except Skyler and Kontijaro both blinking in unison.
      "Um, wasn't that supposed to blow up or something?" Kontijaro asked.
      Skyler shrugged.
      "Don't ask me.  I don't know where this thing has been." Skyler responded.
      "Skyler, think about that sentence." Kontijaro stated.
      Skyler thought for a moment.
      "That's sick." Skyler told him.
      "Heh." Kontijaro replied, grinning.
      In the time it took for Kontijaro to get up, Skyler performed a running slide and completely mistimed grabbing his Lightfoil in that super-cool way, so he had to scramble back and grab it normally.  He deactivated it and put it away before firing a few more quarrels at Kontijaro.
      Kontijaro, for his part, was doing great at dodging and worrying that the next quarrel would explode.  Finally noticing that NONE of the quarrels seemed to be exploding, he ripped one of the ring posts out of the ground with his telekinesis and hurled it at Skyler.  Skyler ducked, but the quarrel he had loaded into the crossbow fired off.  Kontijaro yelped and jumped over the quarrel, which hit A-kun straight in the face, covering it in gum.
      "Mmm gfmm mfoo kffmm ffmm fmr ffffff." A-kun managed to say.
      "'I'm going to kill them for this'?" C-chan asked.
      A-kun nodded, raised a hand with an enormous ki ball in his palm and, before C-chan could protest, hurled it at the ring.  Both fighters yelped and leapt for cover as the ki ball exploded, sending both flying through the air to slam into the walls.  Kontijaro groaned and managed to clamber his way to an aisle while Skyler lay dazed where he was.
      "Great, now Skyler's out.  You happy now?" C-chan asked.
      A-kun shrugged.
      "Oh, that's right, the gum." C-chan noted.
      *RRRRRIIIIIIPPPPPP*
      "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!"
      "Up next is Rhialto the Marvellous versus Flair." C-chan decreed as A-kun raced off.

      ~_^ -_-

      The theme from Enya's "Lonely Planet" (from the Sacred Spirit amerindian CD) began playing as Rhialto, carrying a wizardly staff, entered the arena through the red doors before floating six feet off the ground.  He flew over to the ring and "sat" down on the air, awaiting his opponent.
      "Run Away" by The Real McCoy broke the silence as a white-haired woman walked down the red aisle towards the ring.  She wore her hair in the same manner as the original Kei of the Dir, er... Lovely Angels and was wearing a WWWA logo on her mechanical arm.  She wore a blue silk shirt that had a Yin-Yang on the back and black jeans.  As Flair got into the ring, she turned to Yuri and Kei from Dirty Pair Flash.  Kei nodded to Flair before smiling a bit.
      "Ooohhh, some beef jerky..." Shao Khan said.
      "Wait!  That stuff was made before the Monarchy!" a random fan cried.
      "PPBBBBTTHH!" Shao Khan spat out the beef jerky.
      "If you go by some historical books, but others say Beef Jerky was invented afterwards." the fan said, grinning evilly.
      Shao Khan began marching up to the Nosebleed section to teach that smart-ass not to joke around with an Outworld Lord.
      Flair fired her gun as Rhialto turned intangible.  Cursing, Flair punched and kicked at the intangible mage, but to no avail.
      "You've got to turn back to normal some time." Flair growled at the Untouchable.
      "Oh?  RHIALTO'S SHOT IN THE DARK!" Rhialto cried.
      The lights went out.
      *PINCH*
      "EEEEEEK!"
      *POW*
      As the lights turned back on, Rhialto was laying on the ground with a black eye, totally unconscious.  Flair was snarling at him, but he was already out.
      "Silphion versus Octavian next." C-chan announced.

      ~_~ -_^

      As the variant on Terra's music from FF3 (FF6 in Japan) began playing (go to http://members.aol.com/SilphionS/ if you want to listen), the lights suddenly go out, and the piercing roar of a dragon blasted through the room.  When the lights go back on, a whisper of wind brushes through the hair of audience members, almost as if to reassure them of something.  After a while, a tall slender elf silently makes his way from the entrance.  Waist-length silver hair gently drifted behind him as he moves fluidly, his silver eyes gazing about here and there before looking straight towards the ring.
      He made his way down the ramp, flanked by a tall and skinny guy with long dark hair tied into a ponytail, a not-too-shabby-looking nerd, but a business wise one.  The elf paused a moment, his sapphire blue cloak whispering about him as he pauses before the ring.  Unclasping his cloak and tossing it aside while adjusting his forest green poet's shirt as he placed one booted foot upon the edge of the ring and deftly leapt over the ropes and landing deftly on the mat.  He reached around him, fingering the bladed dancer fighter staff strapped to his back as he silently waited for his opponent.
      "All Star" by Smash Mouth began playing (the tape with his original theme had broken) as Octavian and his escorts, Tenchi, Washu and Ryoko exited the now-dusted red doors and made their way to the ring.  Octavian was dressed in the same Juraian Battle Suit that was loaned to him by Washu the last time he fought, who had created the original battle gear.  Octavian performed a High Jump(tm), landed in the ring, took out his lightsaber, turned it on and adopted a ready stance.  Suddenly, he yawned, and declared, "I'm still sleepy! Can't we do this later?"
      "No." Silphion responded.
      "Fine." Octavian decided.
      "HEEEEEYYY!  Someone took my Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream!" Shao Khan growled.
      Octavian and Silphion launched forward, Silphion swinging his staff and Octavian slashing with his lightsaber.  The two stopped after they had passed each other and had taken a few steps beyond the point where their weapons cross.  Octavian clutched a wound on his right side as a small cut appeared on Silphion's cheek.  Then, the end of Silphion's staff clattered to the floor.
      "You're good." Octavian complimented.
      "You're not bad either." Silphion responded.
      Octavian unleashed a barrage of small fireballs as Silphion hurled fireball of his own.  Silphion's fireball stopped most of Octavian's mini-fireballs, but some passed it by without detonating.  The fireballs finally disapated when they struck Silphion's Aura Barrier.
      Suddenly, before Silphion could blink, Octavian was in front of him and kneeing him in the stomach.  The elf grunted at the inertia the blow had more than the power behind it.  After all, Silphion was at least twice as strong as Octavian.
      "POINT FLARE!" Silphion managed to wheeze.
      Octavian barely avoided getting 4th Degree burns that were well-nigh impossible except in that fanfic saga by that Chris person.  And it was a good thing too, only _very_ select people could ever even come _close_ to surviving 4th degree burns and Octavian was not one of those people.  Octavian, in retaliation, released a hailstorm of pyrokinetic hell onto Silphion, who was barely dodging or withstanding the massive attack.
      "SPIRIT WALL!" Silphion yelled.
      A massive gust of wind began swirling in front of Silphion, blowing the pyrokinetic flame with the force of a Pan Galatic Gargle-Blaster.  Octavian had to duck as his own flame came shooting back at speeds not quite reachable by RL scientists.  Growling, Octavian punched his fist into the mat and yanked it up.  Silphion fell into the 'guts' of the ring, causing the Spirit Wall to falter and vanished.  Octavian re-energized his lightsaber, leapt into the 'guts' and dashed towards Silphion to finish the fight.  Flame encased his sword.  Silphion, seeing Octavian's determination, raised his mostly intact staff and charged as well.
      "RYUUENJIN!" Octavian roared.
      "MANA BREAK!" Silphion responded.
      A massive explosion engulfed the area where the two fighters met.  When it was all over, Silphion and Octavian were still standing, their weapons at full extension.  Then they both relaxed.  Silphion collapsed.  Octavian fell asleep.
      "What a battle between those two EXCELLENT fighters!" A-kun declared.
      "But, I'm confused, the Mana Break spell should've done most of the damage to Octavian..." C-chan began.
      "But you forget that lightsabers can repel energy to a point.  Look at this play back." A-kun said, pointing to a StarScope camera which caught all of the action.
      "Why's everything blue?" C-chan asked.
      "This is StarScope.  It's the exact opposite of Starlight, which allows you to see when there's little light.  StarScope lets you see when there's too much light." A-kun said.
      The blast flowed towards Octavian, who used his lightsaber to repel most of the blast back towards Silphion, who was caught off-guard.  Grunting as he passed through the blast, he used his Sudden Wound technique as Octavian unleashed the Ryuuenjin for the second time.  Silphion, having taken far more damage than Octavian, collapsed.
      "See?  That's how it works." A-kun told her.
      "Aahh.  So basicall, you used a Deux Ex Machina to get something that could be worth millions during daytime fighting on desert planets or on planets where the lights would get too intense for most retinas." C-chan responded.
      "Uh, bingo." A-kun answered.
      "Next up is Cap'n Bungie versus Sailor Moon!" C-chan cheered.

      ^_^ ^_-

      Once the attention of the audience is no longer on C-chan, loud fireworks go off and the band Puking Piggies begins playing "Puking Piggies Go To Market".  Strippers dance on stage next to the band members, distracting them somewhat, but the Puking Piggies prove that they are mildly more professional than pig.  Cap'n Bungie entered _through_ the red doors and walked down to the ring with Leona Ozaki in her Bonaparte following close behind.
      As Cap'n Bungie leapt into the ring, accidentally landing wrong and resulting in a strange pop followed by stabbing pain which he merely grinned through, he began waving his arms, building cheers from the hentais for hiring strippers, cheers from the fans of the Puking Piggies and boos from anyone who thought that his entrance was in poor taste.  The band finished it's song and vanished, as did the stage and strippers.  This illicted some more boos, but Cap'n Bungie ignored them as they were from the perverts who liked the strippers.
      As the opening theme to Sailor Moon began playing, the red doors were blown open courtesy of Sailor Jupiter (since they'd been sealed shut continuously throughout the last episode) 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, made sure no hentai otakus tried anything.  Chibi-Usa waved to her fans and flipped off her enemies.  Shingo and Mamoru waved to those who like them and ignored those who don't.
      Usagi stepped into the ring and transformed into Sailor Moon (A censorship chip keeps the hentais from seeing her nude).
      "You PERVERT!  Forcing all those women and men to gyrate for your pleasure." Sailor Moon declared, waving her Shiny Sexy Cutey Full Moon Rod at him.
      Grinning, Cap'n Bungie pointed back at her, "You PERVERT!  Transforming in front of all these horny men and women!  Have you no shame?! Besides, the strippers are only for popularity."
      "Um, well, so is my transformation!" Sailor Moon responded.
      "FIGHT!" Shao Khan roared.
      "HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY LUV LUV BEAM BEAM!" Sailor Moon cried.
      Hearts began falling from the ceiling like fifty ton anvils.  Cap'n Bungie barely avoided the deadly hearts before leaping at Sailor Moon in a flying tackle.  Glomping her tightly, Cap'n Bungie grinned to himself before leaping away, barely avoiding the Fist of Righteous Female Fury.  With a smirk to the crowd, Cap'n Bungie began firing ki blasts at Sailor Moon, causing her to dodge frantically.  Eventually, she face-planted into the ground, unable to get up fast enough.  Cap'n Bungie charged forward and kicked her in the ass, sending her rocketing through the ceiling.
      "WHOOOO!  1293 YARDS!  The NFL would LOVE to have me!" Cap'n Bungie said, before mooning the crowd.

      ---  ~_^ ^_^  ---


      "Okay, now up, the Final Finals!  Then, the Absolute Destiny Finals!" A-kun said.
      "For the Final Finals, it's going to be Kontijaro versus Cap'n Bungie, then Flair versus Octavian." C-chan announced.
      "The suspense is gonna kill someone and hopefully, so will one of our combatants." A-kun declared.

      ---  ^_^ ^_^  ---

      Once the attention of the audience is no longer on C-chan, loud fireworks go off and the band Puking Piggies begins playing "Puking Piggies Go To Market".  Strippers dance on stage next to the band members, distracting them somewhat, but the Puking Piggies prove that they are mildly more professional than pig.  Cap'n Bungie entered _through_ the freshly repaired red doors and walked down to the ring with Leona Ozaki in her Bonaparte following close behind.
      As Cap'n Bungie leapt into the ring, accidentally landing wrong and resulting in a strange pop followed by stabbing pain which he merely grinned through, he began waving his arms, building cheers from the hentais for hiring strippers, cheers from the fans of the Puking Piggies and boos from anyone who thought that his entrance was in poor taste.  The band finished it's song and vanished, as did the stage and strippers.  This illicted some more boos, but Cap'n Bungie ignored them as they were from the perverts who liked the strippers.
      Kontijaro entered through the blue 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.
      "YAHOOIE!" Dan Hibiki cried, running across the ring for no sufficiently explainable reason.
      Cap'n Bungie and Kontijaro both sweatdropped.
      "Uhhh...." they began.
      "FIGERT!  That'd be a great name for a new Dilbert character..." Shao Khan exclaimed.
      Both combatants decided to just fight.  Kontijaro raced up and began bapping Cap'n Bungie mercilessly, who yawned before trying to hit Kontijaro. Luckily for Kontijaro, he was fast enough to avoid the brunt of Cap'n Bungie's attacks, unfortunately, each attack was of such magnitude that he was sent spinning away briefly after the shock hit.
      And so, the Dance of Shiva began, but that's not important to THIS story.  Kontijaro finally figured out that, after Cap'n Bungie began lobbing ki bolts, that it was time to get serious.  Because, sooner or later, Cap'n Bungie would land a hit that would cripple or knock him out altogether.  Kontijaro summoned all of the power available to him, grabbed a ring post and threw it at the back of Cap'n Bungie's head.  The Cap'n stumbled a bit, but remained upright.  So, Kontiaro made the world's largest taser by throwing a Lit2 through the post.
      "Ow." Cap'n Bungie responded.
      Right before he tackled Kontijaro, sending the faster man skittering away.  Kontijaro barely recovered before Cap'n Bungie tried a descending jump kick.  Kontijaro rolled out of the way, used his psionics to distract Cap'n Bungie long enough for him to use his telekinesis to pick two ring posts and proceed to beat Cap'n Bungie head through the mat... literally.
      "Uhhh, okay." A-kun said.

      ---  ~_~ -_-  ---

      "Run Away" by The Real McCoy broke the silence as a white-haired woman walked down the red aisle towards the ring, the doors were still in repair from Cap'n Bungie's entrance.  She wore her hair in the same manner as the original Kei of the Dir, er... Lovely Angels and was wearing a WWWA logo on her mechanical arm.  She wore a blue silk shirt that had a Yin-Yang on the back and black jeans.  As Flair got into the ring, she turned to Yuri and Kei from Dirty Pair Flash.  Kei nodded to Flair before smiling a bit.
      "All Star" by Smash Mouth began playing (the tape with his original theme had broken) as Octavian and his escorts, Tenchi, Washu and Ryoko exited the still ruined red doors and made their way to the ring.  Octavian was dressed in the same Juraian Battle Suit that was loaned to him by Washu the last time he fought, who had created the original battle gear.  Octavian performed a High Jump(tm), landed in the ring, took out his lightsaber, turned it on and adopted a ready stance.  Suddenly, he yawned, and declared, "I'm still sleepy! Can't we do this later?"
      As soon as the fight began, Flair fired her gun, which Octavian reflected off his lightsaber.  Flair found a two inch hole in her stomach.
      "Bloody 'ell." she said before collapsing.
      "These fights are shorter than ever." A-kun commented.
      "Well, the combatants are tiring." C-chan responded.

      ---  ^_~ -_^  ---

      "And now, since this is shorter than a normal tournament part, this intermission before a review of the fighters, then it's on to the Absolute Destiny Apoca..er, Final." C-chan declared.


      ===  ^_^ ^_^  ===

      "Okay, here's the plan.  During the intermission, we'll kidnapped entire sections of the audience, make clones, then once we're done, we'll kidnap the two finalists!  THUS MAKING SURE THIS TOURNAMENT NEVER FINISHES!  BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" B-kun laughed.
      His minions shook their heads.  They knew what would probably happen.  It would probably back-fire in their faces.  So, they'd let B-kun hold the 'gun'.

      ===           ===

      ===           ===

      "Well, it's time for the final fight of the night, but as both fighters are exhuasted, this will _probably_ be a very short battle." A-kun said.
      "I don't know.  Kontijaro and Octavian both have had a lot of luck getting this far, and it's consistant, we'll be seeing one helluva big explosion to close this finale." C-chan said.

      Kontijaro entered through the blue 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.
      "All Star" by Smash Mouth began playing (the tape with his original theme had broken) as Octavian and his escorts, Tenchi, Washu and Ryoko exited the still-being-repaired red doors and made their way to the ring.  Octavian was dressed in the same Juraian Battle Suit that was loaned to him by Washu the last time he fought, who had created the original battle gear.  Octavian performed a High Jump(tm), landed in the ring, took out his lightsaber, turned it on and adopted a ready stance.  Suddenly, he yawned, and declared, "I'm still sleepy! Can't we do this later?"
      "Oh, come ON!  This is the last fight of the tournament!" Kontijaro shot back.
      "But I stayed up playing video games!" Octavian complained.
      "That's no excuse." Kontijaro scolded.
      "Fine, let's do this thing.  Hey, what the hell are we going to win if we win this tournament?" Octavian asked.
      Kontijaro shrugged.
      "Maybe we should fill the audience in on what's going to happen." A-kun said.
      "Right.  Since this is the final battle of the night, we decided that we should do something spectacular.  So, after two minutes, if the fight isn't over, one of the eighty-six 200 lbs. sandbags which are suspended from the ceiling will drop at random.  If the battle does not conclude for another minute, the ground around the ring will open to reveal a pit of molten lava.  If the battle rages on for two more minutes with no winner, parts of the ring will be to drop at random into the pit.  If we _STILL_ are without a conclusion to the fight or the fight takes to the air, we have the remaining members of the Security team with hyper-accerlated paint balls.  Don't think that getting hit with one of these puppies'll just sting.  A paint ball can go through eight inches of solid steel, thanks to my personal upgrades." C-chan explained.
      "After all that, we HAVE to have a victor." A-kun declared.
      Shao Khan took a deep breath, this would have to be his most impressive yell ever.
      "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKK!" Shao Khan cried as Daley from BGC grabbed his butt.
      Octavian lunged while Kontijaro powered up for one big Luminaire.
      "Looks like we won't even be bothering with even that sandbag-drop-thingy." A-kun said.
      "Both fighters aim end it all in one BIG bang!" C-chan complimented.
      "A brilliant strategy since both are probably really tired." A-kun commented.
      "It's not THAT brilliant." C-chan told him.
      "It is if we want to end this tournament." A-kun shot back.
      "RYUUENJIN!"
      "LUMINAIRE!"
      "PIKACHUUU!"
      "HEEEEEEEY!"
      "PSSSYYYYY!"
      "Uhhhhhhhh, what's going on?" Tenchi asked.
      Washu answered, "Well, Octavian's using his final move; Kontijaro's using his ultimate lightning spell; Pikachu has managed to start summoning Bahamut Reborn, or as it's called in U.S., Bahamut Zero; Ryoko's attacking the Pokemon; and Psyduck is saying something best not repeated."
      "Um, should we take cover?" Tenchi asked.
      "Very much so." Washuu said, yanking Tenchi under the ring where a "YIPE!" and odd moans were heard shortly afterwards.
      Psyduck swore for his life as Ryoko powered up to blast the swear-like-a-sailor yellow duck Pokemon.  Pikachu vanished as Bahamut Zero appeared in the sky above the Death Dome.  The Luminaire collided with the power output of the Ryuuenjin and the Terra Flare, causing a wild explosion that sent both Kontijaro and Octavian flying backwards.
      A-kun and C-chan found that their hair was now blasted stright back as if they had just been in a lab explosion.  Soot lightly covered everyone's face, save Pikachu's as the yellow Pokemon reappeared safe and sound.
      "So, who won?" A-kun asked.
      Kontijaro woke up.
      "Well, that explains that." C-chan responded.
      "Wow.  I won.  Yet, somehow, I feel that I've lost.... what am I saying, I WON!" Kontijaro said.
      "Goodnight everyone." A-kun declared.

      ===

      Epilogue: After Kontijaro was handed a $10 Gift Certificate from Blockbuster Video that had expired and was thrown out of the Death Dome, B-kun and his nameless minions raced into the Death Dome, expecting to be able to kidnap some audience members to clone and send against Kontijaro and Octavian.
      "Dammit all!" B-kun swore.
      Depressed, the four left the arena.  Suddenly, the six conspirators raced into the Arena, expecting the same thing that B-kun had been expecting, an Arena filled with spectators that could be used against someone.  Disappointed, they left as well.  And finally, same deal with Loki and company.
      "I _told_ you to go before we left.  Now we missed our chance to do anything this year." Loki scolded his daughter.
      "Shut UP, dad.  Besides, _you_ haven't been a shining example of responsibility.  You _could've_ attacked in the Almost-Finals, but NOOOOO!  That was beneath you." Hel responded.
      They left as well.
      Suddenly, A-kun and C-chan skidded in front of the camera, ala Wayne's World.
      "Wait a minute, we can't end this story like this." C-chan said.
      "Why not?" A-kun asked.
      "Because, our fans deserve a big ending!" C-chan responded.
      "Right!  Time for a musical number!" A-kun declared.
      "YIPPEE!" both Authors exclaimed.
      "Oh for #%@#$%@^'s sake..." the reader grumbled.
      "Quiet you!" C-chan told the reader while aiming her guns at the reader's genitals.
      "I'll be good." the reader whimpered.
      "Quick!  Switch to Script Format!" A-kun said.
