Season 5, Week 1
Luna
(Lunar: Silver Star Story)
 
For an incarnation of the Goddess Althena, you'd expect Luna to manifest a more powers than a few magical songs. Nevertheless, those infamous notes of "la la la la la" are all she has to work with as she seeks to claim a victory over fellow Lunarian Mia Ausa. Though the underdog in this match, (Mia is a former Middle, after all) Luna definitely has what it takes to steal a win. Though she endures statistical disadvantages in almost every category, her Temptation Song has a good shot of adding sleep, and her Dream Cane can similarly send her opponent into a slumber. She also has Cascade Song, which will build her attack power and lasts the entire battle. And last but not least: she can heal, while her opponent can not. Can Luna overcome the curse of the Lunar temp PCs and steal a win in her second RPGDL appearance?

You wouldn't normally expect Mia Ausa to fight her own teammate, especially when said teammate happens to be the Goddess Althena in human form. Determined to get back into Middle, though, she isn't hesitating over such a trivial matter! Mia outspeeds her divine opponent thanks to her Wind Cane, and her Flameria spell should be able to overwhelm Luna's healing. She can even use Ice Shell to weaken Luna's only source of damage if need be. Temptation Song and its nasty sleep status is certainly a problem, but with some luck the future Guildmaster should walk away from the Arena with her first RPGDL win.

The 2 Lunarian's entered the ring. They were friends in thier own game, and outside of the arena, but now, for the first time, they were forced to fight.

Mia: I don't wanna hurt you Luna, so lets try to make the most of this, and just get this over with, ok?
Luna: Sounds like a good idea Mia, lets start.

The 2 engaged immidiatly. Mia opened by yelling 'By the Power of Althena!' and blasted Luna with a Flare Bomb Luna followed by singing her famous few notes, and Mia was asleep. She then started casting Cascade Song on herself several times. Mia woke up, and blasts Luna again. Luna continued to sing, and heal herself. THis went on for a bit. Mia could not take down Luna before Luna could Herself. Meanwhile, Mia's constant Assault left Luna somewhat at a loss of Offense.

Mia: *Huff* THis fight is taking too long
Luna: I know.
Mia: Say, ref, can we add a bit to the fight, just to end this?
Ref: What's that?
Luna: Can we invite a friend of our choosing to help fight for us?
It was agreed they both get 1 ally, and thus...
Mia: Nash, I need you!
Nash: Mia, my darling, don't you fear, I shall help you emerge Victorious.
Luna: Alex, get over here, NOW!
Alex: Well, Nall, it looks like the Dragon Master must help his goddess, as usual, have fun with Ruby...
'Gee, thanks...' Nall said who was in his Human form, sitting next to a certain familiar red cat.
Nash: Well, I guess its my turn...Special Delivery!
Already, Alex was turned to stone...that is until Luna sung again, and Alex was transformed back...
Mia: Summon elemental Powers!
Nash: Check this out!
Luna: La la, lalalala!
Alex: Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

The battle still wasn't ending. It wasn' long though, til Jessica realized that her friends needed help or they would not get out of this stalemate, but she wondered how she could help. She then noticed Kyle was hitting on some of the female attendance.

Jessica: Kyle! Get Over here! NOW!
Kyle: What is it, Jess?
Jessica: Darn it! Go help Alex and Luna, so I have the right to pound you and not make it look persona.
Kyle: Isnm't that...illegal?
Jessica: NO! I'll be helping Mia and Nash, so GO!
Nash: Damn it! Take this Luna *Nash fired a cross bow bolt at Luna, but Alex jumped in the way, and the arrow bounced off his Armor*
Luna: Lalalalal
Alex had Cascade song cast on him.
Mia: Summon Elemental...
Kyle: Muraaaaaswap
Kyle had smacked Mia down.
Alex: Kyle! Thanks for the help. Why are you here?
Kyle: JEss told me to help you
Luna: Why us?
Jessica: Althena, Lend me your power! *Mia is now healed*
Luna: HEy! How dare you use my power w/out my permission Jessica!
Jessica: Too bad, I'll use whatever I want, besides, its my own power anyway.

Niether side was getting anywhere fast. Alex and Kyle were going all out, as were Kyle and Mia, and Jessica and Luna made sure thier respecitve sides didn't die. It wasn't long til Lucia had come back from the little Goddesses room...

Lucia: Oh no! ALthena Needs my Help! I can't let her lose!
Lucia teleported into the Arena and yelled 'you shall not interfere!' blasting Mia's team with Plasma Rain.
Jessica: Damn it! Now we're out numbered!

At this point, it finally clicked for Lemina that her 2 ancestors, Mia and Nash, were fighting, and thus, she realized the profit opportunities involved if Mia were to successfully win a Light Championship.

Lemina: Mia! I've always wanted to meet you! Don't worry, I'm here! Mega Magic Flame!
Luna's team was blasted with Crematorium.

To everyone's suprise, the Judge had not said a thing...let alone, appeared to be anywhere, heck, it appeared he was blasted himself when Kyle entered.

Thus, it was TEam Althena vs. Team Ausa, and it wasn't long til Lemina had an idea...

Lemina: Say, Borgan, Over here! We need your help!
Borgan: Why should I help you?
Lemina: Want a good word with my Mother Miria?
Borgan: *Blush* Oh sweet Miria...I mean, of course I'll help young mistress Ausa!
Borgan had entered the fight, and now, Team Ausa seemed to have an edge.

Gwyn: Hiro, Wake up!
Hiro: Gramps, I know, its just a Light Fight, I don't really care...
Gwyn: But...the Dragon Master Alex, your Hero, is fighting.
Hiro: Nice Try Gramps, he's a heavy, he wouldn't be in light...
Gwyn: Say...is that Lucia I see?
Hiro: What? Lucia?? *Hiro Looked at the Arena, and sure enough, he saw the young goddess fighting alongside Luna, Alex, and Kyle* Lucia!!!!! Don't worry! Here I come!

Hiro appeared to teleport, and appeared in the middle of the Arena, yelling his 'Bang! Your Dead!' pulled off Concussion Sword, successfully Killing Nash, who Jessica Brought Back instantly.

Lucia: Hiro! you've Come!
Hiro: Anything for you Lucia
Alex: So...my Successor wishes to help team Althena?
Hiro: Of course I would!
Alex: Alright, Lets get them!
Borgan: This isn't good

Ronfar: Wow, this looks like quite a match. I don't know who to bet on...
Mauri: Still thinking of Gambling, Ronfar.
Lemina: *Notices Ronfar* Say Ronfar, if you help out Team Ausa, I'll give you your famous Magic Dice Back!
Ronfar: ...Sorry Mauri, but destiny Calls! *Runs off to help*
Mauri: Be careful, sweethart!

Ronfar: Lady Luck, Be Kind! *Hits Alex with ANger Dice, who doesn't even notice the attack*
Jessica: wow, that really helped
Ronfar: I didn't ask for your oppinion, Sweetcakes
Jessica: WHAT DID YOU CALL ME!

It was around now that Tempest and Jean had both noticed the battle, but neither could decide who to help, or did they think it was right.

Jean: Wow, this is really getting out of hand.
Tempest: I know...say, Jean...I bet you anything that Team Althena wins.
Jean: Really now? Alright, I'll take you up on your bet. Team Ausa, Pummel Team Althena into oblivion
Tempest: Don't give in, Team Althena, show them the Goddesses true Might!

Ramus: Wow, I'm really making a profit *looks into the Arena and notices Lemina* Hey, its my Rival, and she's fighting in a match and trying to make more, is she? I don't think so! Alex, Luna! Fear Not! I shall come to your Side!

Ramus Jumped from the Stands, and attempted to make a dramatic entrance, but due to his fat size, landed flat on his face, got up, and embarrasingly entered the fight.

Mia: Darn it! Just give up! Take this! By the Power of Althena! *casts Flameria*
Nash: Check this out!
Alex: Red Dragon Anger!
Hiro: Ferocious Winds!
Lemina: Mega Damage!
Lucia: Destruction!
Kyle: Take...wait, I don't know magic *everyone pratfalls*
Huge explosion, it was hard to see anything.
Hiro: Say, has anybody seen Leo? We could sure use his help, they still outnumber us.
Ramus: What the? Hey! I evened up the odds, didn't I?
Alex: Yeah, your right, we COULD use some more help...

Out of nowhere, a familiar voice was heard...
'Fear Not, Team Althena! Your Saviour is here! NEver Give Up, Never Surrender!'

Lemina: Is that...Leo?
Mystere: Of course not! Know my name...MYSTERE! YOu need a SPanking!
*at this point, Mystere through a grappling hook, and swung all the way over to the Arena, Dramatical entering Yeling 'Fang of Justice' and hits...Ramus...knocking him out of the Arena, followed by Yelling 'Discipline Feels Good!' and crashes out through the arena*

Hiro: That...was interesting...
Luna: No! He hit our own teamate in an attempt to help us!
Alex: well, it WAS Ramus, it wasn't like he was helping us anyway
Kyle: I thought we were fighting...

Mia and Nash attempted to blast Team Althena again, however, Alex was wise to quickly call Nall to cast White Dragon Protect on his team. However, little did they realize, Lemina was negotiatiing again...

Lemina: As I said, if you promise to help Team Ausa to victory, I promise you buy you land off the frontier, how does that sound? And you get the satisfaction of finally getting vengeance on ALthena!
Royce: Well, Xenobia, what do you think?
Xenobia: lets do it
Royce and Xenobia jumped in, Royce yelled 'I saved this Just for you!' as she fired a shot Lancer at Luna, however, Lucia jumped in the way, and toko the hit.

Hiro: Lucia!
Lucia: Hi...ro...
Hiro: You....*****! YAAAAAH! *HIro hits Royce with Triple Sword*

Alex; This isn't good, we're greatly outmatched
Out of nowhere, Lunn entered the match.
Ronfar: Lunn what are you doing here?
Lunn: I'm here cause its a fight, do I need any other reason...besides, Team Ausa has an unfair advantage, I'll see to it that they get thier just ally...
Lemina: Nuts...I KNEW I was forgetting someone
Borgan: Lets just try to finish them, can we?

THe battle...raged on. The biggest Light Battle anyone has ever seen, the whole Lunar cast was at it, Jean and Tempest were still cheering on thier respective Teams, Ruby was starting to get annoyed of Alex repeatedly calling ehr Assistance, though Nall didn't mind Alex' calls for White Dragon Protect. Somewhere in the battle, Laike joined Team Althena at the beck and call of Alex, but alas, even then, no victor appeared.

Suddenly, Luna realized something. There was a certain major someone who hasn't been seen. Who cold that be? Then, she saw a familiar face, waving a small Luna flag...

Luna: Oh...Ghaleon! Please, I need your help
Ghaleon: (Darn, where's Leo when you need him to make a good plan) Yes, Luna, what do you need now?
Luna: PLease, can you help my team Althena get a victory?
Ghaleon: Help you? Please, I have a match next week, can't I just sit this out? And I'm beyond bribery
Luna: well, you'll listen to Reason then. You claimed to be a Dragon Master at some point, didn't you?
Ghaleon: Well, yes, but that was to the False Althena.
Luna: Still, having the Title Dragon Master means you assist the Goddess Althena, and using it even as a guise, means you are obliged to help me.
Ghaleon: Well, umm...rats, out smarted by a kid. Fine, I'll help. But remember one thing...
Luna: What's that?
Ghaleon: Not Ghaleon, Dear Althena, Magic Emperor, Ghaleon!

*Ghaleon Teleported in, using his EBC form, for some strange Reason, and immidiatly turned into his Famous Magic Emperor Form*

Ghaleon: If I'm not mistaken, wasn't Mia your opponent Originally?
Luna: Well, yes, but...
Ghaleon: Time to die! *Casts Fate Storm on Mia, killing her*
Nash: Oh no! Mia!
Ghaleon: There, now Luna is the winner. The match description states that as soon as Mia or Luna dies, the other is the winner. Well, Mia just died, so this just determined who shall remain the Light who advances and who...is DEAD!
Alex: Oh god, I hate the speech, even rip offs of it.
Nash: WAIT! Wasn't the ONLY official Help allowed me and Alex on our respective teams? Ghaleons attack on Mia was illegal! Therefore, by definition, Luna should be disqualified!
Ghaleon: Darn, I was hoping no one would bring that up.
Nash: I won't stop til this is taken ot the Authorities.
Luna: BUt...Kyle killed the Ref, remember? Who is the going to be the Authorities now?
Zophar: Mwahahahahahahaah! It appears you are in need of assistance
The EBC Cast: *Gasp* Zophar!
The SSSC Cast sans Ghaleon: WTF is that?
Ghaleon: Uhhh, yes, Zophar, is there something you want...
Zophar: I am quite annoyed no one asked for my help, I could have easily decided a victor. You all have disappointed me.
Hiro: Darn it, Zophar, now you realize you have a less chance of winning now than when you fought us originally.
Zophar: On the Contarary, I am not here to destroy, I still haven't fully awakened, nor is am I in this season...
Ghaleon: Well, what do you want?
Zophar: I shall be the one to decide who shall advance between the young Human Mage and the Goddess. And My decision is...

Luna: 11
Mia Ausa: 15

Now, fighting gods isn't that big a deal for your average RPG character. Hell, for some of them, fighting and opposing their own god isn't even that big of a deal. However, when you're a mage, and the goddess you happen to be fighting is also the source of your magic power, then the only thing you can really do is play it smart and stay home that day.

And Mia, being the smart member of the Lunar cast, did exactly that, giving Luna a bye to the next round.
