"Now entering the field is Zander a mercenary who is our solo fighter of the competition, and in the other corner they are both former elite Empire soliders Natala and Rokugoh." The announcer said as the men pulled off their cloaks. Natala was a little taller than ayverage, blue eyes, white hair to match his skin, jacket and mask that covered his mouth. He wields a trisula(Like a Chinese Guandao). As for Rokugoh he had red hair and deep purple eyes. Attached to his belt was a whip.
'Well this will be interesting.' Zander thought as he didn't feel their auras. "How is this possible?" Leone and Lubbock both said in shock as they saw it was the real Rokugoh. He had been a rebel general, but had recently been assassinated. They sat in the very back of the stands.
The crowd grew silent as the King stepped out on the balcony. "Let the fights begin!" He said before the crowd erupted and they launches himself at Zander.
Just as the blade of Natala's trisula get an inch away from Zander's throat it both Natala and Rokugoh freeze on place as the world goes silent. "How about I find who is controlling these shells while they wait." Zander says to himself as he jumped to the oversation deck next to the royal deck where the king was standing. He was currently using his superspeed to freeze time.
When he lands a crack forms in the stone flood. He finds the rest of the Jagers are standing. In the most forward was Kurome holding her sword. He grabbed her shoulder and gently threw her off the deck before moving back down to the area floor and got an idea before he stopped using his superspeed.
As time returned to normal a loud crash came with it. "Sorry that was my bad." Zander shouts as the oversation deck collapsed. "What the hell was that?!" Daidara yelled as they climbed out of the rubble.
"Where is Kurome?!" Wave yelled as she wasn't among the group. "She's fine waterboy. I'm borrowing her for a second." Zander yelled back as Natala caught Kurome and Rokugoh swung his whip at him. "So Akame this is your little sister?" He yelled up at Akame who was with the rest of Night Raid on the back of a flying danger beast cycling the area as the whip ignited into flames.
"Zander return to base now! This wasn't part of the plan!" Najenda yelled down at him. "Yeah I don't care." "That's a direct order!" "I'm not taking any more orders from you. Our contract has ended. Your best bet is to leave." Zander says while pulling out a cigarette as a man barged through the door behind the king and Night Raid left.
"My lord! All of the competitionors are dead!" "What how are they dead?!" The Prime Minister yelled.
"I killed them to save time." Zander said as he leaned against the wall infront of them lighting his cigarette. "You really are the Demon King! Kill him!" He yelled as he moved behind his brother. "I'm not the real Demon King so can calm down fatso, but I have all the same abilities. Anyway I'm sorry your majesty our first meeting was not how I wanted it happen, but to fulfill my contract with Night Raid." "So you are a mercenary?"
"No! He is the evil that needs to be wiped off the face of the earth!! I will take revenge for Orge and my father!" Seryu yells as she barges in and screams. "Get him Koro!" Koro lunged with it's teeth out at Zander only to receive a sharp glance from him and immediately froze then sat at his feet and Seryu hit the floor unconscious.
"That is correct and for hire at the moment." Zander said ignoring Koro and Seryu. "Since the is supposed to be a fight today and I've killed all other competitors how about I fight the group of rug rats you have here." He say before stepping on the butt of his cigarette. They all glanced at each other at the thought. "I'm will to make it for of a fair fight by not using my demon king abilities for five minutes. I will allow to use their Imperial arms against me." He said before looking down to see the Jaegers gathered in the center of the arena.
"There has been a change in plans due to the death of the remaining participants." The announcer said shocking the crowd. "What?! Did Night Raid kill them all? Impossible there was a hundred other competitors." People from the crowd said in shock. "But now as ordered by the King himself the last competition will now fight the combined forces of General Esdeath's Three Beasts and Jaegers squad." He said as the Three Beasts walked out to join the Jaegers.
"Does anyone else think it's unfair that this commoner has to fight all of us with out any weapons?" Nyau said he was quite short for his age being in his 20s and only five and a half feet tall. He had gold eyes and hair with a pair of red horns and a devil tail that matched. For style he says so himself. "Does it matter we will kill him painfully." Daidara said with a smirk. "Liver what do you think?" He turns and asks the last of their group and their some what leader under Esdeath. Liver was the same height as Daidara at 5'11. Daidara had hair like Hyau with his hair slicked back and held by a headdress that had black horns. Liver was the odd one out of the bunch with his grey hair that swoops to the side and a grey mustache. They all wore the same outfit with the only differences being Hyau wore shorts instead of pants and Daidara wore his jack open.
"I only want to entertain General Esdeath." He answered before the Announcer spoke again. "Now the man they will be facing is Zander the mercenary!" He said as Zander walked back into the pit now wearing his jacket and carrying his sword.
