Semi FInals - Kadaj vs Yazoo

[Kadaj]

"Ladies and Gentlemen!!"
The short goat-like man yelled out into his small cardboard-looking megaphone, bellowing at the crowds and audience as their cheers and chants shook the very foundations of the Coliseum itself!
"It's time for the first match of the Semi Finals!! The winner of this round will proceed into the all important Final Round!! Who will it be?! Cheer for your favourite, boo for the underdog! It doesn't matter!! One of these two contestants will be heading into the Final Round!!"
Phil said as he turned from side to side, walking in a small circle so he was able to speak to everyone in the arena at once. The audience themselves were making such a racket that goatie Phil could hardly be heard. Chants and cheers were echoing throughout the Coliseum, both sides of the arena yelling out for Kadaj and for Yazoo, just as equall. The audience themselves seemingly forgetting just exactly what and who the two Remnant's were and instead accepting them both as warriors in the Tournament. It was sort of like Blitzball on Spira. A form of entertainment to help them forget about all the bad things happening around them.

"Please will you welcome to the Arena for the Semi Final round, brothers from Gaia, Kadaj and Yazoo!!!"
Phil quickly teetered out the ring as the roars and cheers of the crowd seemed to grow even louder still!

[Kadaj]

After hearing his name being called by the little goat-guy, Kadaj walked out from the shadows under one edge upon which some of the audience were sitting, cheering out for him and for his brother, Yazoo. Yet Kadaj wasn't particularly happy at this match, mainly for the reason he'd have to fight one of his own brothers, plus due to rumours he had been hearing of his brother defecting to the Light. The silver-haired Remnant plus his brother Loz, were always going to fight for the Darkness and do what they thought would be right for Mother, the Calamity from the Skies. Well... Kadaj didn't. He had his own plans and they just so happened to involve the headless freak, is all. Loz on the other hand... He had vanished from all the worlds for a short while, most likely having returned to the Planet, but just recently the leader of the Remnant's had been picking his presence up again, very faintly though.

Now wasn't the time to be thinking about that though as Kadaj turned and glanced over at the crowd from where he had just walked from. They were all waving and cheering for him. It was strange how this people could aimlessly forget just exactly who Kadaj really was and cheer and call out his name in such a way. Looking down at the floor, Kadaj remember his time spent in Spira when he, Kairi and others had joined the Blitzball team there. It was strange being on the same side as those freaks, but the people of Spira came to see the Blitzball matches to help them forget all the tragedy and destruction and sadness that Sin had brought to them all... It could only be assumed that this Tournament was of the same thing. A way for the people of Kingdom Hearts to forget all their troubles and have a good time.

Turning to face the arena where he was about to fight with his brother, Kadaj just smiled and shook his head slightly, letting out a small sigh.
"It doesn't matter. This is only so I can uncover the truth to Yazoo's betrayal."
He said out loud, but the roaring of the audience limited his voice to reach his ears alone. With a small nod of his head, Kadaj stepped forwards and entered the raised fighting area on the Coliseum, taking a few more steps forwards before stopping and folded his leather clad arms across his chest. Now he waited. Yazoo was going to come out and then they would fight. Brother or not, Kadaj was going to fight at full strength in order to remind Yazoo whose side he is actually on.

[Yazoo]

[OOC: Before I'm even going to start, I'm going to apologise that this post is most likely going to be very crappy. At least I expect it is going to be without even starting it yet. Yeah, shoot me. xD;;]

Yazoo set a foot forward when he heard his name being called. Memories flooded his mind about the past. He and Loz had lost their lives when they had tried to take Cloud with them to find mother and Kadaj had already left back then. He still didn't understood what had happened afterwards. Whether they ever found mother there, or why he returned.

Another step was taken as the remnant thought when he came back from the Lifestream. He had nothing. No memories from between his demise and his return, no brothers that would direct him further, no place to go to, nor a purpose to fulfil. Without all this he did not know where to go or what to do. He represented Sephiroth's allure. He wasn't Loz, who would find his way with games or rush forward to find mother, nor Kadaj, who would think out what to do and figure out a path to follow. Never had he been alone without directions and left to decide on his own.

It was at that point that he had to choose on what to do. He thought then to seek out the 'black sheep', even if it would only end to battle, it would be at least something he could do. Instead he found Terra, the Keyblader, who directed him to the worlds outside of the Planet. He travelled worlds since that day.

The remnant came in the open and looked up at the arena where his brother already stood waiting for him. Yazoo had found many different kinds of people during his travels since then, but he always continued to search for his brothers. To search for mother. One of his travels brought him to Agrabah and here he met a mysterious man, whom he identified as Xemnas at a later point. The man spoke strangely and even offered help, but kept confusing and messing with his mind.

Yazoo didn't change his expression and appeared calm and neutral as he continued his way to the stage. Xemnas had messed up his mind and brought great confusion to him, he lost it there for a while until he met Maurelle. She continued to mess with his mind, but gave him a purpose instead. Through manipulation she tried to use him for her own plans and because of all this he had thought he had formulated his own plan. That he could function on his own and it only brought more trouble when he met his brothers. Chaos was created amongst them.

These memories were painful, but Yazoo had kept on moving this path and joined the Light on Maurelle's behest. But also the Organization through Lexaeus with an experiment. He was torn between all these sides and all tried to use him. He began to learn much about himself and Sephiroth. This only allowed him to find out what was happening. His mind got straightened out slowly.

The gunner of the remnant stepped onto the arena and looked across the field to Kadaj calmly. He had joined the Light to learn about Project S, to create an opening to Cloud, Zack and Angeal. He had joined the Organization to find a way to Project G and learn more of Deepground and Genesis. And he had joined the Human Heartless to combine all the information he had gathered only to come to a final goal.

Yazoo pulled out his guns. He had expected to stand across Kadaj one day again and accepted it. He still needed to learn one thing more before he cut all lines with the Light and Organization XIII, but at that point. He would try and deal a massive blow to Sephiroth, AVALANCHE, Deepground, and the Light. "Brother, my experiment is getting to an end..." He spoke calm to his brother and short smirk appeared on his face. "I need to tell you something... after this." He was certain that Kadaj would like his plan for the finale. They would need to be prepared for this.
