*appears in an alternate dimension, walking around, when I see a tower*


... This is gonna suck....

*rubs into the towers first floor, then stops amist the middle, as I look around*

???: ah, shinji, it is about time. I trust that soul edge has been repaired?

Shinii: yes. I'm here for soul calibur. 

???: you'll have to climb the tower.

Shinji: Algol, are you sure there's no other way? This is a time sensitive ordeal we are talking about.

Algol: that is how I earned it, and that is how you will. You may not use any powers, only your swordsmanship.

Shinji: could I use my dimension cutter?

Algol: can you Seal some of its power?

Shinji: most of its power is sealed.

Algol: then you may. Your opponent will arrive shortly.
