open The Dark Tournament III

[Hive King 2,001]

Skuldaf looked down, somewhat conflicted. On one hand, this pony seemed to be far better than the other. On the other hand, he wasn't quite sure if he agreed with the fatality. That being said, Skuldaf knew that some in this tourney deserved to die, so perhaps the axe pony deserved it

@, ((Nope. He's a serious guy.))

 

Trench quickly pulled out his dagger and club. Then he stabbed the dagger in his throat and slammed hi cub into the blade to make enough force to cut the stallions head clean off. Trench sheathed his club and dagger and kicked the stallions body and head off the ring. Then he ran over to Juri's and knelt down to her and lightly picked her up. "Miss, are you alright?" He asked with worry.

(Sorry to do this to you Trench, but things are about to get a little romantic.   )

 

Juri was barely able to open her eyes, but allowed Trench to help her up. "Are you kidding?" she joked, "I grew up with two older brothers..." She opened her eyes and stared at Trench before she could finish her statement.

 

It was probably a concussion, but Trench looked like a completely different pony than before. Caring but strong, stern but gentle, his handsome eyes staring directly into hers; he was absolutely dreamy! She kept staring at him for a few moments while the audience awkwardly waited.

 

"Juri appears to be conscious..." Topaz commented, "Yo, Juri! Are you still with us?"

 

She didn't respond.

 

"EARTH TO JURI!"

 

"Huh?" Juri mumbled, snapping out of her trance. "...Right!" She hopped up to her hooves and did a little twirl to show she was okay. She lifted her mic and proudly announced, "Imajin can't compete without a head, so the winner by death is TRENCH CLUB!"

 

While the crowd broke into a mixture of cheers and boos, Juri winked at Trench and whispered. "I serve cocktails at the vip lounge in the tournament hotel."

Godric donned his black and gold armour, as well as his royal purple cloak and sheathed his sword. There was a silver glint on each of his fine feathers and a gleam in his eye as he awaited his battle. "I suppose Mr.Imajin did deserve to die....but it is still a murder in the eyes of the Holy Ones", he said quietly. He silently pondered what type of combatant his opponent would be.

Tempest noticed a fight had already started and walked into the stands. It would be a good time to observe a potential opponent. "It doesn't matter who lives or dies. I will win." The bar pony didn't care who he killed. He wasn't going to hold back this time." The bat pony then have a slight smirk.

I'll consider him. Grant thought to himself after watching Trench's fight from the VIP lounge. But only if he continues winning.

 

 

 

After Juri's interaction with Trench, she walked back to the ring while giving him a final passing glance.

 

"Juri, are you sure you're okay?" Topaz asked over the speakers.

 

"I feel great!" Juri proclaimed happily before she gently brushed her hair back and signaled that she was prepared to ref again.

 

"Well that's a relief," Topaz said under her breath. She raised her voice again for the mic to pic up and said, "Without further interruption we move on to match three! Prince Godric versus Mito!"

Mito was a sickly green unicorn with a white cloak and dark blue shoulder pads who had been waiting in the fighter's lounge silently. When he heard his name called, he lifted the hood off of his head, revealing a disgusting, wrinkled face with scraggly hair and several gruesome scars. "Time to put the beautiful ones in their place." He said with a voice that sounded like he was gargling on spit. He gave a passing glance to Godric, then entered the arena.

Godric watched the grotesque form as it to the arena. "That thing...I can kill without remorse...without the Holy Ones resenting and condemning my soul he said as he walked to ring. "It is quite fortunate for you to have across me, my friend. It seems you overstayed life's warm welcome. I will tale care of this small problem..do not worry...you will not be in this place for long", he said truyly feeling that ending the unicorns life would be a gift of mercy.

"I've been getting smack all my life," Mito said hatefully, "Now you'll learn that it's no coincidence that I got this far!"

 

Juri gave a passing glance to each fighter and signaled the match to start. "Okay fighters, you may begin!"

 

Mito immediately stepped into a fighting stance and concentrated his power into his horn, causing it to glow with a blue and green aura. A lime-green ball of acid began to hover in front of him.

 

"This looks interesting!" Topaz commented, "Mito has summoned some kind of pasty green orb..." She immediately began to clench her nose. "And, oh my gosh! It smells really, REALLY BAD!"

 

"IT'S MELTING MY NOSE-HAIRS!" Someone shouted.

 

Mito released the giant orb and intentionally missed Godric. The sphere hurtled into a section of the audience and instantly melted the ten viewers who weren't able to evade it.

 

"Ponies are always underestimating me," he smirked, "Up until the point where their bones start to melt!"

He concentrated on summoning another acidic orb.

@,((Another thing you should know about trench. He may be a  serious guy, but that don't mean he don't like the ladies.)) Trench was a little surprised from Juri's behavior towards him along with her comment. But as he walked out of the ring he couldn't help but smile. As he walked back into the combatant lounge He walked over to the window and watched the next fight... while also watching out for Juri.

[dusk shade 205]

Godric lunged like a corkscrew into the air, spraying the arena with knives hidden within his feathers Slicing a few unlucky fans."If you think I care at all about ypur sad little life,... then you are sadly mistaken but as I said before...it will be over shortly", he said landing on the ground which was now coveredwith knives.

Mito stopped charging his blast and stood still in a standing position with his mouth opened wide. Three knives had landed in his back, overwhelming his body with searing pain. He collapsed to his knees.

 

Juri had jumped off of the ring just in time to avoid the knives and was left in a daze after landing flat in the grass. She was unable to save Mito with a ten-count.

 

Mito turned away from Godric and started crawling toward the edge of the ring with a trail of blood behind him. "You win!" He pleaded. "I give up!"

She's a hell of a fine sheila aint she?" Kiwi commented. Somehow, she had acquired a full bottle of whiskey and was standing next to Trench. "I saw you getting all goo-eyed. Can't say I blame ya. She's no Dog, that's for sure. I might like to see her in a cozzie, myself. But I'll keep to me own bizzo."

[dusk shade 205]

"Be on your way...", he said walking up to the pony that was retreating from him. He threw off his cloak, it taking off in the wind as he grabbed the defeated Mito from behind and turned him around. He gouged his talons into the unicorn's eyes and pulled them out from thier sockets after pulling him off the ground, painfully with his claws in his eyes. He then tore through his neck with his beak saying, " Be on your way... to the next world".

@@Scrambled_Egghead,

 

Trench looked at the intoxicated mare. Trench never liked dealing with drunks. He always found them a little annoying and the smell of alcohol on their breath always made him sick. He looked back out on the fight, which was now over and then back to Juri with a small smile. "She is rather attractive." But his smile went away as he watched the griffin who was fighting  pick up his opponent and kille him right after he conceded.

 

That made Trench very angry, you could tell by a fury like aura that formed around him. IT was like the feeling you get when a valcano was ready to blow, but you don't know when.

Despite her intoxicated state, Kiwi had a similar reaction ti the fight. Her glazed over eyes changed to where they could almost be called sober. Alcohol did not affect her in the normal way.

 

"Right up arse like that aint got Buckey's chance! I'll give him a blue myself if I get the chance!"

"Oh my god it was... so beautiful!" Topaz said with a hint of shock, "Take it from a girl who thought she'd seen everything, jugular eating is something fresh and new! I sure hope the other contestants can get this creative!"

 

"Geez, Topaz, your sadist routine scares me sometimes..." Juri said to herself. She put on her cutsie girl routine and hopped onto the stadium, being careful not to step on any knives. She held up one of Godric's claws and said, "The winner by death is Prince Godric!"

 

The crowd had an overwhelmingly positive reaction to the victory and chanted the griffon's name.

[Hive King 2,001]

"What have I done? Entering this collection of monsters?" Skuldaf said, closing his eyes warily. "No skill either, simply a savage animal with no control" Skuldaf noted, his horn beginning to spark with its murky red and black aura. He needed to vent energy soon, such was the curse of having no limit to his power supply

@, 

 

Topaz exited her announcer booth and entered a section of the audience with her microphone ready. "I've been told that we're going to have to wait a minute while the staff readies the arena for the next fight." She leaned forward to a camera and proudly said, "And, as your groovy broadcaster, I'll be panning the audience for your opinions! Let's go ask someone now!"

 

She walked over to an aging stallion with thick glasses and white hair and held the mic to him asking, "What about you? What's your opinion?"

"My what?" The old pony asked, "You'll have to speak up, miss. My hearing's not that sharp."

 

"What's your opinion on the tournament so far?" Topaz clarified.

 

"Oh yes!" The man said before smugly adjusting his glasses and leaning back in his seat. "Well I think there's no question about it. Juri is definitely cuter than that red-headed announcer. Topaz, I think her name was."

 

Topaz sighed and presented the mic to someone else, an orange unicorn. "How about you, sir?" She asked.

 

"I'm actually into older mares."

 

"You know what? On second thought, maybe we should just wait in silence," Topaz said with a defeated attitude. She returned to her booth.

 

After a ten minute wait, an announcement came on in the fighter's lounge, "Tempest and Frey, please report to the arena."

[Drago Ryder 641]

Tempest smirked as he trotted out of the stands. "Its time to have some fun." He thought, smiling darkly. No matter who the bat pony faced, he would show no mercy. He would kill whoever got in his way, except for maybe that Australian mare. She seemed nice. Eventually, the bat pony entered the arena floor and waited for his opponent.

(I can guarantee you, you won't be wanting to kill this one.)

 

Frey was a white pegasus with a curly red mane that covered most of his neck and forehead. He had unusually point ears, and dark blue eyes that displayed a hint of childlike excitement. He stepped onto the ring and walked in front of Tempest. He spoke to him without making any eye contact in a fast, jittery, irish accent. "Damn near unruly wind be fillin' the air now." He looked at Tempest. "You can tell a lot about a fellow from the wind around them and yours is the kind I like." He pointed up to his ears, they were pointed straight up. "Give 'em a look, Tempest. They're all up and wiggly they are! They're just about as excited as I am to tell the truth."

 

Juri impatiently interrupted, "We're here to have a fight, you two!"

 

Frey jumped back and hovered over his place in the arena. "Right, then! Let's get to the fun! One to one to one 'till I'm a tower on my hooves holdin' a fief!"

 

"BEGIN!"

Chain Mail lifted his thin leather mask, and chugged half of the beer.

 

"It's hard to find a better moment than a beer after a kill, unless you do something like drink it out of a skull." He said, "Granted, there aren't many easy ways to get a bleached skull that's clean for consuming things from.

 

"Also, this has been bothering me, but are you a fighter in here?" Chain Mail asked the guy he was around there.

 

"And what's up with that crazy redhead, he looks like he'd die in half a second... Or maybe just old... Yeah, he acts like some weird old ponies."

 

(I'm sorry I took all day posting this. I got pulled away by school earlier, and wasn't able to get a minute to myself until just a few minutes ago.)

Tempest smiled slightly at the young pony's enthusiasm and couldn't help but remember how he had acted similar when he was younger. "I may spare this one. Something tells me he'll go far in life." He thought to himself, smiling slightly as two blades of aura formed in his hooves. The bat pony then flew towards his opponent. "I couldn't have put it better myself."

@,@,  

 

Kiwi was watching the fight intently. Her whiskey bottle had mysteriously become empty. That bloke's got a hell of a thick accent. The hell's a bloke supposed to understand a word of it? She thought. She thought. After a moment of silence, she slammed the empty bottle on the ground and shouted, "WHERE'S THE GODDAMN BOOZE?"

[dusk shade 205]

Godric returned to the fighters lounge and pulled a bottle of seven-hundred year aged wine from his bag. He popped the cork and poured some in an extremely ornate glass which he slowly drank. He repoured the glass several times until the bottle was empty, quickly growing tired of the wine. He finnaly plulled a large case of whiskey out.

Frey held out one of his hooves and started spinning his entire front leg around like a child pretending to be a helicopter. After a brief warmup period, it started to spin around rapidly and the wind swirling around it became visible and formed a swirling tornado around his right hoof that stayed on his leg like a cufflink.

 

"Now this is the creativity I was asking for!" Topaz ranted, "Frey just used his wind powers to create a powerful tornado around his hoof! I bet a punch from that would really hurt!"

 

Frey held his right hoof up in the most threatening manner he could. "Tornado Hoof's the name, and you'd better get to know it!" Frey said with a cocky attitude. "Let's see how it compares!"

 

Without any further warning, Frey leapt into the air and darted at Tempest with the tornado hoof held out in front of him.

 

(Frey is monumentally stronger than the other characters I'm controlling. The problem is, he has no experience and can't control his powers.)

[Drago Ryder 641]

Tempest smriked as one of his blades turned into a aura sphere."Batter up." He said, before hitting the sphere with the flat of his blade. The force sent it flying towards Frey faster than normal. "I have a few tricks up my sleeve to. This could be interesting."
