Avalon vs Zelos Wilder
Meeplelard One truth comes out above all else: Popularity cannot win all fights. So while Zelos brings in all the raving screaming fangirls and fanboys he has behind him, Avalon simply sighs, and nukes them all at once with some doomsday villainy powers of his that he didn't have in game, cause villains aren't allowed to win. Overboard? Yes, but given the victims of this fight was just his own opponent and yet another useless raving crowd, Avalon had little regrets, let alone anyone actually complaining about the casualities. I mean, its hard to hear complaints about someone's death when ALL of their fans were nuked alongside the person themselves. ...and ironically enough, Avalon just did the human race, something he despises, a big favor, but no one has to tell him that. Avalon: 26 
Rolf Landale vs Kurando Inugami
T.G. Nevareh What is this, a joke? Rolf is almost as good a PC killer as Orlandu for the exact opposite reason that Orlandu is a good PC killer: Rolf would lose in a grudge match since Phantasy Star heroes really aren't known for their staying power, but Rolf also has the strongest Megid, ever, of which all other Megids are mere shadows. Including the Megid used by the effective antithesis of all life. Add this to his ability to heal himself and his speed and I really don't see Kurando coming out ahead. Rolf just blows Kurando up. If and only if Kurando can survive it (which would involve getting off his Harmonixer abilities before Rolf blows him up as well as being more durable than everyone who has fallen to Rolf's Megid before) does he get the option of trying to fight Rolf for as long as it takes him to Megid Kurando... again. Rolf Landale: 37 
Zeromus vs Wakka
SageAcrin Attack Reels: Three Blitzball Matches. Status Reels: Ten Blitzball Matches. Auroch Reels: Three more Blitzball Matches. Jupiter Sigil: Ten. More. Blitzball. Matches. Screaming "No, really, ya, ya, ya! I love Blitzball, it's the greatest thing ever! Look at all the stuff I got from it!" at the top of your lungs, and having a dumb villian buy it and start playing Blitzball shortly after, only to get his ass kicked seventy-two consecutive games in a row, by horrible AI Blitzball players: Priceless. There's some things money can't buy. Like winning a match, in Wakka's case. But for everything else, there's being smarter than a rock. Zeromus: 79 jaymthegenius@yahoo.com
Profound Darkness vs Chaos
CmdrKing It was one of the most celebrated contests of evil to be held in many a year. The Profound Darkness, that which held all of Algol under its power for millenia. Chaos, the self-fullfilling prophecy. Villains from all over looked forward to their epic clash. In a shocking move, the respective victims of these two monstrous entities decided to protest the match and deny the terrors of universes innumerable their sport. Naturally, they were dealt with swiftly. Not wanting to be shown up before their own even, Profound Darkness and Chaos stole most of the action. Backed by his Fiends, Chaos slaughtered many. Profound Darkness, unfathomably using its second form, ate most of the rest. Far more thrilled by the slaughter than any actual battle between the duellers might have provided, the judges in this match, an unusual group consisting of Gadan, Belome, and Jibril, ruled the match based on the wanton destruction of the innocent. Given their shared backgrounds in villainy, it was no surprise that the cullinary methods of Profound Darkness struck a special chord in their black hearts, earning the Terror of Algol a delicious victory. Profound Darkness: 39
Ryu vs Nina Wyndia
Namagomi "I come home from work, and all I do is cook! Cook, and clean up after you!" an irate winged princess yelled. "Hey, at least -I- pick a channel. For Ladon's sake, I have to sit there for eight minutes while you channel-surf whenever you get the remote!" a normally-silent blue-haired main retorted... "Whenever I get it?! When was the LAST time I actually got the remote?! You lay on the couch as if you were its king! King Ryu of the couch!" "Well, I did marry you, and you're a princess, so technically..." "Shut up, just SHUT UP, RYU!!!" "...so, what's happening now? I'm confused as to what's going on here. I thought there was supposed to be a duel," Hrist annoyedly commented from the judges' stands. "Apparently, Nate thought it would be more profitable for something from Behind the Scenes to come into the Arena proper, and marital disputes bring lots of publicity," replied Augst. "According to him, the loser would be the one who either left the ring, died, or brought up the other's performance...spanking or no..." Responding to the scientist's attempt at joke and chuckle was a simple "Awroo!" (Of all the idiocy I am supposed to put up with, THIS has to be some of the worst. How do I keep getting caught up in this? And would that man please stop telling his stupid jokes?!) from Blanca, and a sigh from Hrist. "...and to think, I got out of Light for this...between this and Lezard asking me for Lenneth's number..." the elder Valkyrie grumbled. Meanwhile, the heated..."battle"...continued on in the Arena... "--And don't think I'll EVER forget the time you thought our egg was going to be used to make your breakfast!" Nina shouted "I didn't even know you people LAID eggs..." "Awroo-!" (...I did NOT need to know that!) "Ugh...I'm almost wishing for Lezard to harass me again..." Augst only chuckled as the fight escalated... "--I should've known it'd come to this! Ever since we got married, you were always sneaking looks at other girls! Am I not good enough?!" "Oh, don't you START with this! You KNOW I've been faithful!" "That's it! I'm leaving! Jet likely has a bigger--" "Deis was so much better in--" "..." "..." All was silent, until Augst spoke... "My, looks like there may need to be mutual spankings." Hrist groaned, and Blanca did what would pass for a wolf groaning... "But, hmm...who did start theirs first?" Henriksen asked. "Awroo! Awroo!" Blanca leapt up onto the desk, pointing his nose at...one of the two. It was hard to tell from this angle, though... "Who do you think he's suggesting is the naughty one," Augst added, with a chuckle. "...I don't talk to wolves, you know." Hrist annoyedly commented as the couple stormed out of the ring simultaneously. -------------------------------- The following breakup was a legend in and of itself. The original Breath of Fire couple filed for divorce--the court processing for which went through quickly, thanks to both parties desiring such. Nina got custody of the egg--particularly due to her initially claiming it and nobody wanting to argue the semantics of the issue. After the event, Ryu reportedly went off with Deis, and Jet found himself accosted more recently by Nina-1. Repeatedly. Currently, he is particularly confused with the issue. All the Ryu x Nina fanboys fell into depression, a number of whom killed themselves either by hanging or slitting. Some failed to cut the right way, and were rushed to the infirmary. Likewise, the Ryu x Deis shippers had a massive frat party. Don't ask why it's a frat party, because nobody truly knew the answer to that question. Albedo reportedly pulled off his head numerous times, but since he does so several times a day anyway, nobody really cared. Hrist was immediately harassed by Lezard after the match was declared over. He was promptly beaten down in annoyance. Augst was smacked for his jokes. Finally. It wasn't nearly enough, though. As for Blanca, he ultimately decided the winner of the match after five minutes of pointing and mauling the other judges. Wait, you want to know who he said won? "Awroo! Awroo!" (Finally, it's over! The winner of this match was...) Ryu: 44 
Cloud Strife vs Alicia
Meeplelard This match can be viewed with a simple formula. See, the winner of the match is often the one who doesn't die. Well, there's a funny thing about that; no matter the outcome, Alicia will always be dead. Even if she wins, she's still dead. When the judges realized that 5 minutes before the match began, Alicia got disqualified instantly. Alicia has been seen ever since trying to work out that technicality to change the wording in such a way that the undead don't lose instantly. It certainly doesn't play well for the undead... I mean, how long did it take Brahms to get them to finally make an exception for him? Cloud Strife: 41 SageAcrin

Mithos Yggdrasil vs Leo
superaielman There's one thing a true White Knight can't stand- injustice. Mithos represents all that Leo loathes. So when he summoned his giant (False) Althena given battleship to nuke Mithos into orbit, he sadly had to forfeit the match after. It took him a little while to do this, as no one wanted to see Mithos win anyway. Mithos Yggdrasil: 36 
Sharon vs Cecil Harvey
Meeplelard It was decided that this match would be determined based solely on political power and resources, and who would win based on that aspect. Cecil is a King. As such, he has an entire country and their resources on his side. Doesn't hurt that this country also happens to have lots of Airships capable of blowing stuff up effortlessly. Not to mention a White Mage for a wife, an angsty Dragoon (the angst matters, since by anime logic, Angst is synomous with unfathomable power!) for a best friend, is friends with a certain Ninja who just HAPPENS to have contacts to a certain Harmonixer and a scientist, and is well known for causing massive mayhem, as well...oh, said Ninja is also the king of his own country too, a country filled with Ninjas at that. I could go on... Sharon, meanwhile, is a pirate captain. She has a ship, and a bunch of incompetent sailors who'll do whatever she says, yet can't think for themselves, and they thrive in pillaging and running away. And she has an Origin as well. It wasn't hard to figure out the winner as soon as they saw that Cecil had Ninjas as allies on his side, thus giving him the Edge to counter all of Sharon's tricks... Sharon: 28
Swampert vs White Wizard
SageAcrin There are good things about Pokemon in the Duelling League. One of these things is how big the party scene has gotten. When a bunch of random, more-or-less intelligent(Case-by-case, exceptions may exist, consult your Vetrinarian for details-don't worry if he throws you out, they all do that the first fifty-two times.) animals show up in one place, all of which have their own sorrows. (Ranging from various Pokemon lamenting the incredible relative rarities of the males/females of their species-occasionally 0%-to old timers like Chansey recalling the good old days when their kids weren't always more remembered than them and how they used to be good at magic-to Flareon crying into his beer about how no one ever loved him.) The net result is a lot of drunken animals. Another thing is how large the animal protection agencies have gotten. It turns out that if you get three Pokemon professors together at once, they can accomplish anything. (It doesn't help that the various Team members tend to get punched in the face when they try to start Koffing or Poochyeena duels with random PCs.) These two factors reached critical mass in this match. As Swampert wandered into the arena and passed out for twenty hours. White Wizard could easily have taken the chance to beat Swampert during this. However, in a stunning coup, the Duelling League Animal Protection Agency had managed to successfully code insane amounts of animal loving tendancies into White Wizard, so she mostly just stood there and wrung her hands for twenty hours. (This took about one line of code. She is a generic healer, that's all been installed already. It's right next to Generic Love Interest and just before Generic Girl With Hidden Powers.) How did this match end? Well, after several minutes of a hung-over Swampert getting hugged by a overjoyed White Wizard, the match was over, as Swampert, head splitting, fled in terror. This has not been a banner day for Pokemon everywhere. On the upside, Swampert's now a spokesperson for Jecht Breweries. Swampert: 32 
Sialeeds Falenas vs Rhett
SageAcrin Ah, the age-old question. How do you get down off of a duck? For Sialeeds, the answer is moot. Rhett just removed the axe from her face and shoved her off. Sialeeds Falenas: 33 
Domingo vs Selma
Meeplelard This match seems too familiar... Creature with Tentacles against a female warrior. ...thankfully, this fight did not go anywhere near the realm of what is normal for this situation, as it simply ended in Domingo dying instantly from suffocation. Hey, being out of water THAT long is going to eventually catch up to you if you're a jellyfish, even if you a special one. Domingo: 25 
Beatrice vs Arnaud G. Vasquez
Tide " A dream demon?" " Yeah. Well at least that's what the description of the match would describe her as", replied the cocky drifter. He let some of his hair drift over his eyes, making it difficult to see what he was really thinking. A calm voice came from the girl beside him, " Those match descriptions aren't always accurate. Maybe they're just trying to make it sound more grand than usual?" " I highly doubt it. It is true that match bulletins will go out of their way to make matches more exciting than they should. But they do for both sides. And really, why just stop at 'Dream demon' if they wanted it to sound more fierce?" He stopped walking for a couple of seconds and looked up. He had fallen short once. In fairness, he didn't actually fight but decided to concede the match that time. He knew he was outclassed that time. Is he simply going to concede this one too, just because he felt he couldn't win? The girl spoke again, noting his sudden stop, "Are you worried, Arnaud?" " Yeah, perhaps I am. The last time I fought a demon, I needed 3 of my friends to do it. And when we done, we were exhausted. I'm not exactly sure my odds of this match are exactly good" She took one of his hands, and held onto it tightly. He was nervous, and she could tell. Looking up at him, she spoke gently, "Sometimes, you just have to believe in yourself. Trust your instincts and see what happens. If you worry and fret all the time, you won't get anything accomplished. One person's power is often greater than what they think. " He didn't speak but only stared at her, a little bit in disbelief, "Are you serious?" She smiled, "It helped out your friend when you were on your jouney, did it not?" The drifter shrugged, and his worried complexion was replaced with the more relaxed one people often saw him with, "Maybe. You know, I'm surprised at how you know exactly what to say to calm me down" "I wasn't always within the ranks of godlike. It took me several tries before I got a successful run. So I know what you're going through right now", she twirled around, her face away from his, "Come on, weren't we going to meet up with everyone else and grab something to eat?" He nodded, although with one lingering question still on his mind. "I never got your name" She looked shocked, but realized that she never really did formally introduce herself. They were interrupted at the time as an announcement was being made. 'How funny', she thought to herself. Carrying out such a long conversation with a fellow person from the same series but never giving out her name. "My name is Cecilia. Very pleased to meet you" --- Something wasn't right. Arnaud could feel it. He had woke up, got dressed and left early without telling anyone just so he could relax himself. Still, not a single soul being awake at this time? Unheard of. There were surely going to be at least a couple of people awake. He had decided to check up on Jude before leaving, and he realized he was still asleep. At first he didn't think much of it, but now... He stepped into the arena. As his shoe hit the floor, his suspicion of the situation only rose as a loud echo could be heard. He ran towards the centre of the arena and certainly enough, the only person to be there was the dream demon herself. "I've been waiting. For someone who boasts about their intellect, it sure took you a while to get here" Arnaud frowned. This wasn't what he needed in the morning. He didn't wake up to here some form of trash talking, "I had a couple of things I wanted to confirm for myself before rushing here. What I want to know is why you decided to put everyone to sleep. You could have simply placed me to sleep and won by default. So why?" "I wanted to see you struggle in vain at trying to win. I know your fighting style; you're not the type that presses in with devastating force. You prefer to slowly whittle your way down. So let's see what happens when you are forced to win in the way you are uncomfortable with. But don't worry, I'll play 'fair' " "I'm not as nice as I look! You're in for a big surprise if you're going to underestimate me" And with a swift stroke, Arnaud flung his throwing knife right at Beatrice. Only to have her disappear and evade the attack. He quickly jumped back before he was caught off guard. Beatrice smirked as she spotted an opening. With a quick chant, a large mass of dark energy hurled toward where Arnaud was going to land. "I'll send that right back!", matching the timing, the spell bounced off a magical wall and struck Beatrice. The dream demon lauged as she absorbed the hit with little effect. She chased after him as he used his small Jumps to place some distance between them. Arnaud found it hard to catch her with his Blasts, but likewise, she was having difficulty trying to hit him. He evaded another attack as he leaped off the stairs. As he landed, she then performed a different chant. "Try dodging this!" Within seconds, Arnaud felt a migraine developing, "W-w-what....?" "Resist if you wish. But as long as you are connected to the mortal plane with sleep, I can control your brain waves and place you to rest" He tried standing, struggling for a few moments before regaining balance, "Ugh...at this rate..." "Your magical energy is helping you stay awake. But you won't be able to keep this up for long. It was fun while it lasted. Now sleep like a good boy" Will it end this way? He slouched over as he felt himself becoming more and more fatigued. He thought back to the events leading up to here. Believing in yourself...could he still possibly win and upgrade? Is he going to lose, before advancing in a single match? "I won't...let...it end this way!" and with a quick motion, Arnaud stepped into a stance. His feet placed apart as his hands drew into his garb pulling out a series of multiple knives. "Time to unleash my secret weapon!" "Oh? And what exactly will you do when your magical reserves are low and your body exhausted?" Without speaking another word, Arnaud proceeded to throw each set of his knives in a seemless fashion. Quickly infusing them with a small bit of remaining magical energy, he tossed them at great velocity before they hit the dream demon, who had thought she won. He then took one of his last knives and charged it with all the energy he had left, "And with this single...polished strike...!" The small projectile flew in slow motion towards its target. As it struck the dream demon, now in a state of surprise at the recovering drifter, she was envelopped by an echoing boom. "Burst Explosion!" The resulting charge in the last knife had set of all the others, completely destroying Beatrice in a magical energy blast. Arnaud dropped back to his knee as he stopped to catch his breath. He had won, and once the DL refs come by, he will end up winning by default as Beatrice won't be able to attend in fighting condition. " Trust in myself huh?" He thought, "Maybe I will continue giving it a shot. Thanks Cecilia." Beatrice: 30
Karyl Sheeden vs Liz
SageAcrin They say music soothes the savage beast. Liz, knowing that he would be fighting a bard, was prepared! He had diagrams comparing the physical structure of himself and a savage beast(Beatrix, acting as Judge: "I'm not sure a Rabite counts.".). He had critical testamony(Brad: "Well...I don't think he's...savage.". Ashley: "He's more of a lunatic.". Lilka: "Mmm. These are good jelly donuts.", Ard: "Ard, ard, ard, ardardard!". The word of Shinra's vice-present carried much weight.). He had DNA diagrams showing he was neither savage nor a beast(Lexis, acting judge: "Isn't this Mewtwo's DNA?". Mewtwo, also acting judge: *Throws Liz into a wall.* -Stay. Out. Of. My. Genetic. Material.-). He had long, impassioned, philosophical speeches(Lexis: "I think I understand where you're going. The kumquat represents your magnificent stature, while-" Mewtwo: -You're officially a lunatic. Both of you.".). And he had the finest psychologists in the league back him up(Beatrix: *Throws Liz into a wall.* "ALBEDO IS NOT ONE OF THE FINEST PSYCHOLOGISTS IN THE LEAGUE.".). When all was said and done, he had convinced the judges(Mewtwo: -Look, just agree with him and he'll go away..). Liz left, satisfied. Karyl wondered when the match was going to start. He didn't realize he'd already won it. Karyl Sheeden: 41 
Quistis Trepe vs Vaida
SageAcrin Have you ever seen a dragon rake the clothes off a young woman's slim body, her shrieks overcome by it's roars, her pleas for help going unanswered!? Wait, what do you mean, in a few dozen movies and several thousand hentai fanfics/doujins? Well, there's one thing that happens here that doesn't happen in those places! The young girl has a whip. ... Wait, that happens too? Damn, this match is completely unoriginal. Vaida wins. I hate you all. ;_; Quistis Trepe: 37 
Macha vs Chisato Madison
SageAcrin Chisato stared, dumbfounded. Macha was as still as a statue. Chisato had won in a totally unexpected manner. Her opponent, after being repeatedly blocked by Chisato's Algol, found herself stoned. She wandered out of the arena in search of snacks. "...darn it, Ma-cha! You ripped off my stashcha!" Korcha said unhappily, as he watched Macha rummage through the refridgerator. "You have-cha stop doing that! And before a matcha yet!" Korcha sighed. Macha: 14 
Bernadette Egan vs Bleu
SageAcrin Bleu fought ferociously. His rending fangs, his tearing claws, his burning breath, all turned towards the foolish girl who dared oppose him. Yes, his fans were cheering him on, young girls all, and he would not let them down! --- "...Shana, how did you manage to get a microphone that hooks into the stadium loudspeakers?" Dart asked curiously. "I just asked." "Did you lean very far over?" "Um...GO BLEU!" Shana yelled into the microphone. "Poor dragon. He seems to be fighting a lot better than usual, thinking he has fans. Oh well." Albert said, watching Bernadett heal yet again. "Pity he still can't fight that well." He added, as Bernadette finally felled the dragon with a well placed Breath of Ice. Bernadette Egan: 38
The Double Downgrade Club: Gatewalker Tifa wasn’t planning on getting involved in this one, she really wasn’t. After all, it was just a six person brawl, one side had the clear advantage, and there weren’t even any actual godlikes involved. All in all, this was pretty tame for a barfight in any bar in the DL. But that was before Menardi and Saturos decided to merge into the Fusion Dragon to beat on the unfortunate club. Say what you will about their fighting ability individually, but together the two Mars Adepts were a rather unholy terror, and one that Tifa did NOT want in her bar. After all, if they wrecked the place too badly, her insurance premiums would go up again, and they were already too high as it was. So as Worker 8 was getting lobbed bodily through the wall by the massive dragon, Tifa was hitting the button to call security. Well, perhaps Summon security would be a better term. With the kind of fights that break out in her bar, Tifa can’t afford to have security take too long to show up. With a bit of red materia, Al-Behd technology and a bit of techno-magical ingenuity from her friend Emma, Tifa managed to have a rather effective button installed that literally summoned her security team instantly, and bringing them to full Limit capability at the same time. There was one small quirk in the system though. Occasionally, it would summon not only security, but also whoever happened to be standing close to them as well. Like the wingly Lloyd, for instance. It seems that he was getting some tips on proper hair care from Cloud at the time of the summons, and got pulled into the bar right alongside the SOLDIER. Rather used to this happening out of nowhere, Cloud quickly sized up the situation, took note of who the troublemakers were, and then just smiled. Pointing at the fused adepts, he simply clapped Lloyd on the shoulder, stepped back and chuckled, “It’s all you, man. Take it away.” Realizing exactly who had just appeared before them, Menardi/Saturos attempted to make a quick escape. Nowhere near fast enough, of course. If there’s one thing Lloyd is, it’s fast. With a grin of pure psychotic glee that would frighten a hardened murderer, the wingly lunged after one of the few dragons in the league that he had not yet had a chance to kill. About five seconds later, Fusion Dragon no longer qualified for that status. While Lloyd was handling the Adepts, Cloud just looked over the club and gestured out the door with his sword, “Get lost, all of you. Go on, out.” Attempting to protest, Justin opened his mouth to explain to Cloud what really happened but stopped as the SOLDIER swiveled his sword so it was right in Justin’s face. “Look kid, I’ve got an Omnislash with your name on it, you got that? Out.” Knowing when things were too far gone to salvage, Jet dragged Justin out the door while Opera followed with a sigh. Looking down the street at the now un-fused corpses of Menardi and Saturos, the tetragene gunner pulled out her cell phone and started to dial an ambulance for them. As Jet gave her a confused look, she just shrugged, “I know she tried to attack us, but it was all just a misunderstanding. I’m sure if we talk to her after she’s calmed down she’ll understand what we were getting at. Besides, like it or not she’s one of us now, and we always look after our own. Speaking of, go make sure Worker’s alright, will you?” With a shrug of his own, Jet just shook his head and trudged off to where he thought he saw Worker land. Menardi and Saturos: 13 The Double Downgrade Club: 20 Menardi joins the club: 20 Cloud: 28 Lezard Valeth
Battle Vs. Lord Blazer Sei The battle was fierce, but short. "Foolish mortal..." Blazer said while he held the bloodied Jet by the throat. "It may be true that you wield some variation of that blasted sword, but you're hardly the proper type to wield its full strength. "Ghk!" Jet uttered while he tried to breath. "You're an angsty bishounen!" the demon continued with an amused tone. "You lack the passion, the youthful spirit, and the cheesy power of friendship! You could barely wound me, and once I kill you, there won't be anyone left who could even do that! AAAHAHAHAHAHAHA-" "I can't believe they screwed up our luggage," a male who was passing by complained to his female companion. "Well Ashley, travel agencies are the same no matter the dimension, I guess," replied said companion. "-HAHAHA... wait a minute, those voices! Ohcrap." "It sure seems that way, Ana,- IMPULSE! Hi Blazer. -But it still doesn't make it less annoying." "Well, at least they gave a refund for the tickets,- IMPULSE! How are you doing, Blazer? -not to mention a discount for the next time we go to Costa del Sol. It's not too bad..." As the two saviours walked away, a very charred and beaten up Blaze of Disaster tried to stand up. "I... still... have... some... HP... left..." he coughed. "Is the HP small enough that even an angsty bishounen without the cheesy power of friendship can kill you?" Jet deadpanned behind him. "... oh poopy." Blazer managed to utter before a quick burst from the Airget-lahm made him holey. Lord Blazer: 18 Jet: 22 Ana and Ashley: 29 |
