Koro>Guy, Camus>Leo, Hawkeye>Joe, Naesala>Luther

Koro > Guy

Koromaru really could have done any number of things going into this fight. He could have acted cute, trying to get Guy off guard long enough to take him down. He could have used all his canine hunter's instincts to go right for the throat and attack ferociously. He could have talked all his dog buddies into filling the arena with barks and howls to demoralize his human opponent.

Or he could just go with spamming Mudoon until Guy fell over dead.

The straight forward approach isn't always the best idea, but this time it seems to have worked out pretty well.

Camus > Lino

"1...2...3!"

"Rock!"

"Paper!"

"Dammit!" Lino En Kuldes sighed, walked back to his side of the arena and picked up his spear, "Let's just get this over with then."

Camus smiled, "Gladly."

Ten seconds later, the blinding flash of the Rage Rune finally subsided, leaving Lino flat on his back and Camus calmly bowing to the crowd.

After she helped her father regain consciousness, Flare had to ask, "So, what would have happened if you won that throw?"

Lino laughed, "We would have had a ship battle, of course. I figure I'd have the edge there."

"...Dad? He still has a Rage rune. That would be pretty bad on the wrong end of a rune cannon."

"...oh yeah."

Hawkey > Big Joe

Nobody really expected there to be quite *this* much blood in a match between an FE scrub and Big Joe. But sometimes weird things happen. Things like Big Joe being a few minutes late to the match, so Hawkeye was tossing a handaxe back and forth to kill time. Things like some wiseguy in the crowd deciding to throw a beer can at Hawkeye for the hell of it.

Hawkeye couldn't help what came next. He's an FE character. He counters. That's just what he does.

So the next thing anyone knew, a handaxe flung by a heavily muscled man was flying towards the retard who threw a can at him. Well, the guy was about to get what he deserved, right?

Oh, if only it stopped there.

Somehow, the mechanics of the universe decided that when Big Joe was involved, even though he wasn't there yet, the entire crowd counted as a single entity. A single entity that Hawkeye just countered.

Like some sort of infernal top, the axe started spinning it's way around the bleachers, slicing off body parts from every last poor sap it touched. Hawkeye was powerless to stop what had started. Within moments, the axe had worked it's way through the entire crowd, leaving nothing but a trail of blood, gore and broken bodies behind it. And as handaxes are supposed to do, it came sailing right back to Hawkeye as soon as it was done.

Big Joe of course took this moment to walk in, fashionably late as planned. Only to be confronted with the sight of carnage in the stands, and Hawkeye holding a very bloody axe.

Big Joe promptly turned on his heel, and walked right back out.

Naesala > Luther

Bored Godlikes judging matches in lower divisions has long been a source of much chaos in the DL. But letting folks from the lower divisions judge in Godlike has it's fair share of wrong as well. Such as, say, when middles Noa and Meru were randomly grabbed to fill in for Jecht(who was apparently too drunk to judge...).

So how do a pair of obnoxiously chipper girls judge a fight in Godlike? Sticking to a good old fashioned slugfest? Not a chance. No, instead newcomer Naesala got to prove his worth for the first time in the arena...in a disco battle.

This went better then you might expect, though. Turns out both Luther and Naesala are pretty slick dancers. But the Raven King had one small advantage over the master programmer. He wasn't above flirting with the two judges to get a better score(there's actually very little that Naesala is above, but that's neither here nor there).

After collecting his win from the two very pleased young ladies, Naesala had only one question to ask of his opponent, "So, do things get that ridiculous around here often?"

Luther could only sigh, "You have NO idea..."
