[quote=Olivia][color=DeepSkyBlue]“I’m competing to win the Power Stone so I can help him find his lost soulmate, so of course I’d be more than happy to help [i]you[/i], too! So, like, how did you leave the game?! Was there, like, a freak electrical storm?! Or maybe a portal?! Oh! And are from the game itself, or an alternate universe that’s just like it?!”[/color][/quote]

The being stared at Xoly as long as he could, as if he was[i] scannin[/i]g him. When Olivia asked her next bout of questions, 'Necroid 99' quickly answered, "I am from the videogame itself, Tsubotica, The Moonoid Maiden, pulled everyone out of the game to serve in her army to take over the material world, and she's planning to steal the Power Stone. She has successfully replaced all the security staff and management with androids, and I need your help to stop them."

[h1]”.... ARRRE YOU READY FIIIIIIGHTERS? THE NEXT ROUND BEGINS NOW!”[/h1]

'Necroid 99' looked over towards the announcer at the announcer before he looked back to Olivia, "Win or lose, after your next match; come find me here in the Reception Room." He briefly said as he began to saunter towards his second match.

Captain Cole and Violet were walking alongside each other, as they usually did in this tournament, however, the phone in the pocket of Violet's jacket started ringing and she grabbed it. She pressed answer and she raised the phone to her ear... (and if you're wondering how she did it with those big ass claws? Shut up, it's ki). She heard some chattering as Captain Cole came to a stop, narrowing his eyes as he looked at her. 

Then she presented the phone to him with a smile, as she said, "... It's for you,"

"And I think I know who it is..." Captain Cole said as he put the phone up to his ear.

"[i]Update.[/i]" He heard a deep, digitally altered, voice get straight to the point.

"We're still working on getting the Power Stone," Captain Cole informed him, "But some of the fighters [i]you[/i] put in the tournament are getting jobbed left and right, heh." Captain Cole laughed.

"That is not relevant," The voice answered, "The plan was to flood the tournament with our fighters so that we have a marginally higher chance of getting the Power Stone. However, we are not the only interested party after the Stone."

"You got the Justice Riders here," Captain Cole responded.

"And our spies say that Horizon Frontiers has a fighter," The Voice said.

"Only one?!" Captain Cole laughed, "It sounds like they are more confident in their organization than you are in yours!"

"Captain Cole," The voice flatly said, "I understand you are using humor to soften the situation, but you have to understand the gravity of the situation you got yourself into." 

The voice was silent for a moment.

"You stole the stone from [i]us[/i] for your little moon-stealing stunt, only to get made a fool out of by MAVERICK and the Justice Riders. The only thing that kept you alive was - despite your flash of [i]incompetence[/i] - your skillset. If it wasn't for [i]that[/i], you would have personally died by my hand. [i]However[/i], you call yourself a master thief right?"

Captain Cole was silent.

"Steal it, win it, I do not care [i]what[/i] you do just make that stone ends up in my hand - even if I have to pry it from your corpse."

"... You gave me this speech a thousand times already. Is that [i]all[/i] you called me for? To prattle on about the same thing over and over again?!" Captain Cole finally spoke up with a  hiss.

"No," The Voice answered, "We have been getting some strange readings in the Rio De Janeiro area... we are not fully sure just [i]what[/i] these readings are but they seem mechanical. Something's up. Keep your eyes peeled."

The voice was silent before he spoke again, "And make sure you live up to those promises, [i]heh.[/i]"

The phone hung up, and Captain Cole looked at Violet, who was smiling like a madwoman as she said,

"... Sounds like we got work to do."

The Announcer danced her way back onto the stage, swaying her hips from left to right as that worm was still trying to steal her microphone. She then stopped and absolutely [i]screamed,[/i]

[i][b][h1]".... FIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHTERS!"[/h1][/b][/i] 

She continued dancing, before she continued, except at a much lower volume,

[i][b][h2]".... YOU ALL DID AMAZING, BUT YOU ALL HAVE A LONG WAYS BEFORE YOU REACH THE POWER STONE! HERE AT THE NEXT MATCH UPS!"[/h2][/b][/i] 

She then pointed to the screen above herself as it illumined with names,
