Kimiko watched as people after people came in the gym and a grin took over her face. She could feel herself getting fired up just by seeing all her opponents. Even the cockiness of some only proved to ignite the flame inside her further.

Xeno, seeing this, sighed. [color=007236][b]"So, I guess this is happening, huh?"[/b][/color] After seeing an enthusiastic nod from Kimiko, Xeno craned her neck to look over the opponents. Team Elephant Kois was in complete attendance, as was the Viper Bats. And there was one member of the Legendary Lion-Turtles that popped in. They were definitely contenders, teams they knew would prove to be strong opponents in the field, and Xeno felt just how pumped up their team leader was. [b][color=007236]"How about we do it this way,"[/color][/b] they began, bending and bringing up four earth slabs, [color=007236][b]"Two teams of two, with one person from each team as a representative for this sparring match."[/b][/color]

Kimiko stepped up next to her teammate and lowered her goggles to her eyes. [color=aba000][b]"I'll be representing the Raven Eagles. Which one of you is going to be my partner?"[/b][/color]

Xeno grinned and bended the slab towards Kimiko, carving the number one on it. They bended the same number on one of the remaining slabs and the number two on the rest.

[color=aba000][b]"Oh, and Xeno, we're gonna need a referee,"[/b][/color] Kimiko added as an afterthought. She turned towards the other teams while pointing with her thumb towards her teammate. [color=aba000][b]"You guys okay if Xeno over there took up that role? If they try to cheat, you have my permission to beat them up."[/b][/color]

Xeno's only response was a small smirk towards Kimiko, as though saying they'd like to see them try, but said nothing as she waited for the rest of the teams to offer up someone.

Kimiko pumped her fist in the air. [color=aba000][b][b]"Come on, people. This is a learning experience!"[/b][/b][/color]
