Round 2 - Kuja Vs. Yazoo.

[Kadaj]

”Ladies and Gentlemen!! Thank you for your patience!”
The small goat-man said as he strode back out into the middle of the arena, several assistants dashing out either side of him to help the injured fighters from the last round to leave and to clean up any debris and fix minor damage to the fighting area itself. A few others were checking out the shielding system not too far away, to make sure the magical barrier continues to hold in the upcoming fights. Phil glanced from left to right, keeping a close eye on his workforce, before grinning and kicking one of his hoofs against the floor. He rose up his makeshift megaphone and brought it to his stubble-covered face.
”Give a big hand to the winner of the last round!!”
Phil himself clapped, half-arsed at that while the rest of the audience cheered and roared, clapping and chanting for their favourite fighter to reappear and show off more of their fighting moves and techniques. The massive crowd continues to wave flags and banners with various fighters names and faces on, roaring and chanting endlessly for the matches to continue.

Phil took a moment to look at one of his assistants, who ran up to him with a sheet of paper. The goat-man took the paper and glanced at what was written upon it. After a couple seconds, he nodded and handed the paper back before returning his attention to the crowd.
”Ladies and Gentlemen, are you ready for Round 2?!!”
Phil yelled into his megaphone, grinning with delight as he did so. He could hear the mountain of Munny he’d be making from the Second Tournament already. After listening to the deafening roar of the crowd yelling ‘YEAH!’ back at him, the small goat-man turned around, making sure he got to speak to the whole of the audience.
”Then will you please welcome to the stage, a new contestant! This man comes from a far away world! He’s taken place of Zack Fair for reasons that not even I can explain. So sorry for all the fans who came to see Zack, but fear not, for this chap is surely going to amaze you with his fighting abilities and powerful spells! From the world of Gaia, he’s the supposed brother of Zidane Tribal, who tried to take over their world by evil means! Put your hands together for the one and only, Kuja!!!”
The crowd cheered loudly and waited the arrival of their fighter, waving their flags and banners continuously all throughout.
”And his opponent. Victorious from Round 1 against the keyblader Keldric, he’s one of the three Remnants and brother to Loz and the Tournament’s host, Kadaj. A sharpshooter with his weapon and always calm and controlled, please welcome the return of Yazoo!!!”
Phil bowed to the audience and quickly scurried off out the arena before either fight came in and made themselves known.

[Yazoo]

Yazoo remembered Zack's name on the chart, but now hearing another's instead made him sigh for a moment. He had been quite interested in seeing the strength of one of his 'brothers', one that had died before his 'birth'. He could find shards of memories where Sephiroth fought him and if he could stand a bit of a chance against the Chosen One, then a match against him would've been quite interesting.

Yet the name had changed to someone named Kuja. From what Phil gave the guy was a spellcaster and from a world named Gaia. Also a villain. Strange world. He used to meet only the 'good guys' around the place and rarely saw the bad ones, except for the Heartless. The dark-hearted ones seemed to show themselves more often now and open up more to the worlds.

He was about to step out in the open when he remembered something. Kuja. He calmly stood still for a moment as he could remember him together with the Human Heartless in Radiant Garden where he had met Stroud for the first time and Ferser had brought him there. Even Maurelle appeared that time...

----------------

Maurelle's expression became neutral after Yazoo's words. "I see..." The woman turned quickly to Ferser and the Remnant didn't care all that much as he watched the woman smirk. "You know Valerius? As for Kuja, I believe he was killed a while back. Thank god, he was quite the brute, wasn't he..." Yazoo tilted his head, it seemed the woman was reading Ferser's mind this time. He then sighed, not very interested in the chat.

Ferser then spoke up against Maurelle, even swearing. "Well I'm looking for the reason of 'why I am still alive in this shitty universe', and I am also looking for something to escape from boredom. In anyway, I don't see any value in existance." The man turned and cut off a rock to sit on. Suddenly Maurelle spoke in Yazoo's mind, that he didn't need to worry...

----------------

Yazoo tilted his head. He remembered Kuja being mentioned amongst the Human Heartless, he had mentioned his name to Naminé as well. Was this Kuja the same Kuja? There were too many Heartless on the world to exactly find a Human Heartless, then again, usually their presences were larger. The remnant smirked calmly. He just had to wait and see. It was then that he walked into the open and headed for the arena.

((OOC: Due to the unfortunate situation that Kuja/Vexen found themselves in recently (And ignoring that she's still got 2 days left to post) i'm going to give her a few more days to make a reply, because of said unfortunate situation. Check the vacation threads if you wanna know more, brother.

So, that being said, lets see a good fight! I want to see how long Yazoo will last against me in the Semi-Finals should he win >=D ))
