BECOME A MASTER ~ ENTER THE TRUE ARENA

Art by Geoderen

01/CUTTER ⚔︎ ONE
The abyss of the end times, the sirens of which death and imprisonment call, and the disaster that left a remnant of a family shattered. Captive 001, or One, has seen and been through hell. Once an earnest worker in a city on the shoreline, One was enslaved by the Blackwatch army, eventually forced to brutally fight his way to freedom. Now, he remains an enemy of the state, wandering the outskirts of society as he searches desperately for the one thing he must protect above all else. One hopes to win the tournament, using his wish to reunite with his brother in a safer place. No more holding back, as it's up to you to decide if One takes it all in a brutal knockout.

07/BEAM ⚔︎ CEROBA
For years, monsters have been sealed away by a powerful spell. With their hopes smashed, their people demoralized, and their ruler in dismay, many have given up trying to break the spell to return. Ceroba Kestukane, the secret strength of the Wild East, arrived at the tournament with a gaze that Meta Knight immediately knew as unbreakable. For her, the stakes have never been higher. She hopes to use the Galactic Nova's power to grant her a 7th Human Soul, power enough to smash the barrier and save all monsterkind. In the end, it's up to you to decide if tomorrow means the surface, or if their struggles are sent back home to further blossom.

05/LASER ⚔︎ NEON J
All troops, at attention! The mission: Win 4 battles back to back on an unknown enemy command ship. The method...? Well, it's not worth leaking a release before it drops! Vinyl City's greatest robotic boyband manager, at the helm of the chart-topping group 1010, has stepped out from NSR's metronome to expand his taste and his label's galactic reach! The hero of the Border Wars has suited up his troops with the latest in laser weaponry and stylish dance moves, set to use his wish to expand his factories to bring 1010's infectious joy to the universe! Can this EDM mastermind top the charts once more, or will he be rocked and rolled by a cast of all killers?

08/NINJA ⚔︎ ZERO
7 OPPONENTS REMAIN. LEAVE NO SURVIVORS. This was the last transmission received from two masked men, 5 days ago. Being personally scouted by the Halberd crew soon after, something he believes to be no coincidence, Subject Zero found himself with no choice. He took his sword, what was left of his syringes, and sheer determination from a week of sleepless nights, intent on doing whatever he found necessary to get the job done. The Gamma NULL would find himself beside 7 others, most ready to kill for their own purposes. The choice is now yours: The golden victory of life, his wish to find the girl he swore he'd protect granted, or a silver blade of death, that which even the executioner couldn't plan for?

03/TORNADO ⚔︎ SPIN ETERNALLY
A lifetime of intellectual achievement, that which is used to shape the planet for the delta of mankind, all coming together as no match for something of immense power. One day, on a rather standard morning outside of virtual reality, an ultimate unidentified flying object touched down in a lake by a mountain. Opening the pod left it's sole inhabitant shown to the world: a crystallized, candy-toting alien. Baffled and endlessly interested in how this intergalactic hit could benefit the cycle of mankind, they studied her, deeming her a superweapon with the title of Spin Eternally. Mighty Tempo Katanas in hand, she's on a vengeance filled killing spree to turn every facility that tested her into another red room. Only time will tell if you will give her the full combination she needs to find her lost place in the new world...

06/BELL ⚔︎ SUPER BUSINESS DANCING NIGHT
One night at the disco, the next spent on overtime... And all he wants is some peace of mind! (Also, maybe to lose himself to dance...) Your average white-collar worker during the morning, Robert Rodgers spends his days behind the desk, yearning for the day he can break out and boogie to his heart's content. Initially invited as an accident from King Dedede misreading his application, the Halberd Crew found him entertaining enough that they wanted him on the ship, even if only as a background piece. Meta Knight obliged, with Rodgers eagerly accepting his invitation. Anything to get more vacation hours. It's on you if Robert, under his new title of Super Business Dancing Night, will have his next 15 minutes of fame!

02/RANGER ⚔︎ KAMEN RIDER GEATS
The Rules of DGP: The sole survivor of the game will have their wish granted. And for one such Star of the Stars of the Stars, it's his stage that he knows all too well. Ace Ukiyo, the one who walks the path of genesis, has arrived on Planet Popstar to ensure his victory is law. Although his godlike abilities seem to be mysteriously missing, as the passing through Kamen Rider Geats, he still brings his gunslinging prowess and top gear engine to the climax. For the former God of Creation, this tournament is naught but a game, a way to showboat as he does this one-on-one. Ultimately, though, all he wishes for in return is that this world can change its fate, and pursue its desires as he has let his own do so. Will you help him reach the highlight, or plot his downfall as the Gamemasters of old did?

04/JET ⚔︎ THERUSSIANBADGER
He doesn't believe in human rights. Or maybe he does? Or... Perhaps he's just waiting for the tournament to send him their funniest opponent for the content??? No matter what happens, TheRussianBadger has rappelled onto this ship, and nothing short of another sector artillery is going to stop him! Initially contacted by King Dedede only to broadcast the battles to the rest of Dream Land, Badger decided to buy his way into the bracket after a small (and almost certainly illegal) payday sponsered by the United Bank of Money. With plans to... use his wish to buy the Lobsterfest trademark, Badger's betting it all on cool perks for viewers like you! And no, he is not letting the pizza be in a match track.

Art by Enoderen & Parsee Mizuhashi

The duelist and the rider stare each other down, a tight grip on the former's sword, and steady aim on the latter's gun. For Ace, there's almost a strange familiarity to the Rainbow Islands' Big Forest, as if he's seen these exact rivers and rock formations before. One, however, distinctly notices the almost bluish fog splayed across the trees, equally noting the excess of fruit on the ground. "Only a fool would invite that kind of poison into them...", he thinks. Ace's helmet shifts around, taking in the smoke rising in the area. A fire's been lit. A deep maroon starts coating the grass, almost oozing as if the ground is liquefying.

Never take your eyes off a killer. One bolts at Ace at top speed. READY? GO!

...Something has gone wrong. Very, very wrong. After narrowly dodging Ace's Rider Kick, One only barely managed to escape the collapsing forest floor, the sinkhole below glowing a strange hue. Ace, of course, stuck the landing, and is the first to take in the strange underbelly. The walls and floors are entirely adorned with neon blue and green lights, giving out a glow recognizable from vastly afar as it pokes through the ground and into the now-night sky. 

He let his guard down again, though... One jumps into the sinkhole with little hesitation, the acid on his blade dripping onto Ace's helmet being the latter's only warning. He aims to the sky, and...

GET READY TO KICK BUTT. ENGAGE!

Shredded bullets and splashed acid splays the training room, ruining it's crystal-clear lines with their muddied mess. Any attempt Ace has made to keep his distance, One closes it just as fast. There isn't a moment to breathe for the Blackwatch Runaway or the Star of the Stars of the Stars. One flips into the air, putting forth his blade to pierce Ace's head, and Ace is just as fast to aim the Magnum Shooter at One's chest.

Is One too fast, or is Ace's aim true? Find out what you've chosen...

Ace fires flat into One's chest, the blade just barely grazing his helmet. One is knocked high into the air, sword flying out of his hand, as Ace revs up the Boost Buckle. With a defining leap, Ace jets over the blade. The fires of the buckle vaporize the acid on One's blade as he delivers one final kick to the duelist's center, touching down as One explodes and falls to the ground.

THE LAST FIGHTER STANDING IS KAMEN RIDER GEATS.

Spin breathes in the fresh air of Cushy Cloud's open sky, eagerly flying around after the Halberd crew retrieved and repaired her spaceship. This is the kind of place she could really kick up a storm, and it's not long before the black smoke indicates that she needs to. She looks below to see a massive warship cut through the ocean that the clouds cover. Badger, somehow worming his way onto being the captain of this ship, steps out onto the airway with a comically powerful megaphone. He yells that Spin is in restricted airspace, and to "Surrender or I'm getting Skulker to make every sound in your ship into the Garand Ping!"

As if she was gonna listen to that! Fighter jets coming to intercept her? It's time for a hurricane! READY? GO!

Art by dreamingFIFI & [cymancyan]

Missile shells sinking into the forming whirlpool below explode on contact, obliterating Badger's battleship as he barely escapes on his own chopper gunner. Right in the eye of the hurricane, he lines himself up to fire on Spin, the cause of the high winds and the roaring seas below. She points herself swords-down as she only rotates faster, descending rapidly as a flying drill as Badger lights her up with some good-ol' BESH.

Did Spin cause a natural disaster, or is Badger adding another one to his killstreak? Find out what you've chosen...

One of Badger's squash heads nudges itself between Spin's swords, colliding dead-on with her head as she drops her blades. His jet spinning in unison with the hurricane, Badger begins opening fire with the A-10 Warthogs attached to the plane, pelting Spin rampantly until he flies well above the hurricane. He takes a swig of his Gamer Supps as Spin helplessly careens into the ocean below.

Robert sits back on the bench at the bus stop for a second. Rhythm Route's streets are rather busy tonight, with Waddle Dees dancing in the streets. It's right about then where he hears rampant cheers down the street. 1010's flying limousine smoothly sails down the block as the robotic band leans down to rapidly sign autographs and try to take a few photos. Robert looks back down at his boombox, sighing in defeat. These guys have been professionals for years, not much he can do to entice a crowd in comparison. Or so he thinks... Neon J steps out of the Limo and onto the platform as it stops right in front of where Robert is standing. The manager remarks on his news-worthy dance quest, practically forcing 1010 to guide him onto the platform. 

Neon J hooks Robert's boombox up to the AUX of the limo as loud disco music blares through the streets. He entices Robert to a dance-off with his own 1010. You could almost see Robert's eyes light up under his glasses. READY? GO!

[WR1-M3] A King Named Nova

Art by dreamingFIFI

Every Waddle Dee in the crowd has gone absolutely wild by now. Flips, Cartwheels, every bit of breakdancing anyone's ever done, Robert's matched it beat for beat with 1010. He can feel himself sweating, he's really come alive! He goes to pick up his glasses, noticing 1010's sparking machinery across the limo platform. Neon J, behind the turntables, cheers with a hesitant excitement. His crew is damaged, but the talent on display is legendary!

And then 1010 explodes from overexertion. Robert looks back at Neon J nervously, expecting to be scolded again for letting himself be careless. Neon J hastily congratulates him on winning the dance-off before asking him to step off the limo, speeding off so the former can get the factory platform he brought with him. Robert looks confused for a moment before taking in the adoring crowds around him. This might not be such a bad trip after all.

THE LAST FIGHTER STANDING IS SUPER BUSINESS DANCING NIGHT.

Art by dreamingFIFI
The bridge at the very edge of Resolution Road has found itself shut down. Ceroba stares across the road at the NULL, who seems to almost be itching to unsheathe his blade. She doesn't have many other places to hide, having just ran Zero through the city all night after initially being placed in the city's center. Any attempt she's made of tiring him out seems to only make him more tenacious. Zero takes a few deep breaths, finally drawing his katana as Ceroba seems to now stand her ground. There's a hidden frustration in Zero's face, his breathing becoming fast and aggressive.

No more time wasted, Ceroba's done running. Time to start planning... READY? GO!

[WR1-M4] THIS MASK IS A PRISON

Art by dreamingFIFI

By the time the Halberd crew reached the bridge that Zero chased Ceroba to, the only thing they witnessed was something they'd never hope to see. Blood and dust are strewn all across the road, splinters from Ceroba's staff contrasting the shattered cleavers Zero had taken from the chase earlier. The two turn up to the Halberd's giant spotlight.

Meta Knight sees the clear exhaustion in both their faces as they turn back down to face each other. Neither can stand for long... Find out what you've chosen.

Ceroba, severely wounded from Zero's onslaught and stressed that he seems to know exactly what she's going to do before she does it, finally falls unconscious. Zero picks her up by her hair, preparing to slit her throat before having to roll off to the side. Meta Knight thrusts down onto the bridge, taking hold of Ceroba's unconscious body before staring Zero dead in the eyes. Every plan he comes up with ends in death, so for now... Zero surrenders. Dedede and his personal royal guard land behind him, caging him as the whole group proceed to return to the Halberd on Warp Stars.

One stares at the coin Ace dropped for him, saying it was "for good luck." Fat chance. As if he knows what's on the line. One stares out off the balcony of the Halberd, remembering the last time he had to fly over the ocean... The setback won't stop him. It can't. Anything for his little bro.

01/CUTTER ⚔︎ ONE
The abyss of the end times, the sirens of which death and imprisonment call, and the disaster that left a remnant of a family shattered. Captive 001, or One, has seen and been through hell. Once an earnest worker in a city on the shoreline, One was enslaved by the Blackwatch army, eventually forced to brutally fight his way to freedom. Now, he remains an enemy of the state, wandering the outskirts of society as he searches desperately for the one thing he must protect above all else. One hopes to win the tournament, using his wish to reunite with his brother in a safer place. No more holding back, as it's up to you to decide if One takes it all in a brutal knockout.

03/TORNADO ⚔︎ SPIN ETERNALLY
A lifetime of intellectual achievement, that which is used to shape the planet for the delta of mankind, all coming together as no match for something of immense power. One day, on a rather standard morning outside of virtual reality, an ultimate unidentified flying object touched down in a lake by a mountain. Opening the pod left it's sole inhabitant shown to the world: a crystallized, candy-toting alien. Baffled and endlessly interested in how this intergalactic hit could benefit the cycle of mankind, they studied her, deeming her a superweapon with the title of Spin Eternally. Mighty Tempo Katanas in hand, she's on a vengeance filled killing spree to turn every facility that tested her into another red room. Only time will tell if you will give her the full combination she needs to find her lost place in the new world...

Down to his last chance this early? Certainly not ideal, but... Hey! It's exciting, at least! Neon J, admittedly nervous, has been making upgrades to 1010. Robert beat them fair and square in a dance-off, but this... He knows something is gonna be different. He's not about to let this storm blow by without a fight.

Vinyl City's greatest robotic boyband manager, at the helm of the chart-topping group 1010, has stepped out from NSR's metronome to expand his taste and his label's galactic reach! The hero of the Border Wars has suited up his troops with the latest in laser weaponry and stylish dance moves, set to use his wish to expand his factories to bring 1010's infectious joy to the universe! Can this EDM mastermind top the charts once more, or will he be rocked and rolled by a cast of all killers?

Difficulty is no stranger for the fox. Ceroba's spent longer dealing with her physical wounds than the mental pressure of her last encounter. Clover was a surprise, but Zero was the exact kind of human she was expecting for her whole life. If anything, the captain has her a bit more concerned... What's he hiding under his synthetic sleeves?

07/BEAM ⚔︎ CEROBA
For years, monsters have been sealed away by a powerful spell. With their hopes smashed, their people demoralized, and their ruler in dismay, many have given up trying to break the spell to return. Ceroba Kestukane, the secret strength of the Wild East, arrived at the tournament with a gaze that Meta Knight immediately knew as unbreakable. For her, the stakes have never been higher. She hopes to use the Galactic Nova's power to grant her a 7th Human Soul, power enough to smash the barrier and save all monsterkind. In the end, it's up to you to decide if tomorrow means the surface, or if their struggles are sent back home to further blossom.

The daylight gleams in bold contrast to the purple grass of the Illusion Islands, the sunshine piercing the depths like a spear. It seems that Meta Knight pulling his fighters through time and space has caused increasing corruptions to Dream Land, something wholly abundant with how 001 and Spin have been handling the dangers below. Alongside an extreme increase in coral, strange people have been floating towards them like spirits. They beckoned the duelist and alien with visions of... Something strange. A fire burning up the Halberd before a horror of massive size destroys the whole lot of them. They're brought down to a massive air pocket in the shape of the dome, meant to face each other. They both look at each other with a mutual understanding. They're both government runaways looking for revenge. Swords are drawn.

No hard feelings this time. They've both gotta do what needs to be done. READY? GO!!

The coral reef to all sides of the air dome formed deep in the water has been absolutely torn to shreds. Spirits, too, have been cleaved by the two's blades, begrudgingly reforming after each cut to watch the fight in awe. One is in rare form today, almost taking pride in this fight in a way he didn't with Ace. It's a sort of respect from him. Spin has been gleefully slashing at him in return, in awe of the more experienced swordsman. They both take a second to breathe, nodding to each other that now was the time to end it. They both jump high, blades singing freely towards a single stroke.

Will One's tricks prove too crafty, or has Spin Eternally shown her supernatural strength? Find out what you've chosen...

One takes a piece of the scattered coral that he caught, using the acid on his blade to light it on fire before tossing it at Spin's head. She recoils from the surprise, One using the opening to land a decisive blow, striking her in the chest with the non-acidic end of the blade. Spin careens out of the air dome and into the water, the air pocket FINALLY giving out as One and Spin both float back to the surface. One gives a nod of approval and apology as the Halberd announces his victory overhead. 

ONE IS YOUR VICTOR. HE WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT FOR HIS DREAM. 
ONE: "You're gonna be alright. Everyone's gotta brace for their own impact someday."

Art by dreamingFIFI
Gigabyte Grounds' dry air is ever so familiar to Ceroba. You spend long enough living in the Dunes, the high heat and lack of moisture barely feels like a problem. Neon J, meanwhile, has taken a liking to the giant 4-legged factory lended for use by one Ms. Haltmann. They've both barely seen each other since they touched down. Neon J finally breaks the silence, sliding down one of the legs, 1010 following shortly behind, with a bold proclamation: This is going to be the most glorious clash of the tournament! 1010's motors start whirring as they ready themselves for battle mode. Ceroba sighs as she summons her staff to her hand, gently tending to a few flowers she had seen below. She tells him that this fight is no show, and that he should be ready to die trying if he wants to win for sure.

Slightly unsettled, 1010 surround Ceroba. She takes a battle stance. READY? GO!!

Art by dreamingFIFI

The night has set in well since the beginning of this battle. Every time Ceroba seems to destroy a member of 1010, the factory robot Neon J commands just puts a new one right in it's place. The bright pink light that emanates from her body is beginning to fade. At the same time, though, the energetic blue that Neon J is adorning is also dimming. Replacing 1010's members so rapidly like this is taking a toll on his battery and that of his factory's. He finally steps in himself, growing the mechanical legs that the robot creator can spawn, as he and Ceroba stare at each other from a great difference in elevation.

Has Neon J bossed his way back to the top, or will Ceroba show true justice? Find out what you've chosen...

...The standoff doesn't last for long. Repeated salvos from 1010's laser weaponry has left Ceroba absolutely tattered. She rolls away from the factory's charge attack, writhing in pain as she realizes she's broken a leg. A head-on missile strike collides with her to send her flying further back. Staff to the ground, she desperately stands up. Every step she takes hurts more than the last. Neon J can't bring himself to fire off the finishing blow as he watches Ceroba scream in utter despair, her mind not accepting her body has had enough, as she collapses. The pink glow turns to gray as the sun starts rising and the monotone hues that lit this fight up slowly dissipate. Neon J can only salute as Ceroba is taken back to the Halberd for urgent care.

NEON J IS YOUR VICTOR. HE WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT FOR HIS DREAM.
