They need to rest well and prepare for their upcoming matches. Since, it is a bloody bout from here on to the eliminations round to the semifinals. All need to make sure they get a spot to be able to have a place for the champion bout.
All participants are asked to say the VOF's Pledge of Bout or fighters while in front of each other where the middle person or AI, which is, currently, Gail, is between the fighters to help them say the pledge:
I, _________(state your name), pledge to fight honest and heroically in accordance to the rules and regulations of the bout. I will respect and fight with caution to protect myself, my Skims and my opponents well being. I am here to win but not at the expense of another's pain or death. May the Universe give us what we desire and more! Fight!
Rules and regulations of the Bout are as follows; 1) once the signal has turned on to start the bout, both contenders need to bow and move to each end sides; 2) both fighters will fight hand to hand battle and use their weapons as needed to hurt the opponent from head to foot; 3) if one of the two fighters fell to the ground and couldn't get up immediately to a ten second count, the fighter is automatically withdrawn from the challenge and loses the bout; 4) VOF official, judge, or referie can decide for the participant's well being if still he /she is still good to fight or not. If not they can also end the fight as necessary especially on health and welfare issues of the fighter or their Skims.
Skims are said to protect a fighter from bullet or missile shots, so every soldier knows it and so they use swords or hand combats to hurt their opponents. It is a fabulous suit that Gundam pilots used for decades but since Gundams are obsolete, now Skims are the best out there which can be worn as a suit yet the pilots or fighters are inside the Mobile Skims whisch are 250 foot tall or more depending on their creators and engineers design or craftsmanship. Robo Skims and Mobile Skims are new to the flighters Suit weapons but they have a promising outcome when they were used to stop Sentinels and Pirates from creating man-made disasters or destructions.
The bouts continued for the week and until the next. After that we will proceed to the semifinals, haaa…it will be a tough but wonderful fight. I really want to duel Hayaka, since she's not only my friend but also my greatest rival for the championship. I want to see her true power and what style or skill she uses to defeat her opponents, Jon thought while relaxing under a huge sycamore tree outside the hotel in VOF park and recreation area. It's really a wonderful experience being a fighter for universities or companies, we get to see the world and the universe at its finest. The hotel service is not bad too in fact, elegant! I love my life now compared to when I was at Zero and people tend to look at me like I'm a pest or just a shabby wannabe. So I recreated my self and made it this far not lose but to snatch the championship from Hayaka. Though she is a friend of mine, Hayaka is still an opponent, a very powerful block and she knew me too well to take it easy when it comes to fighting and winning. Hayaka even told me that she will never go down easy, so I marked her words in my heart that she will not make it easy for me too and still reclaim her crown as VOF's champion of the universe.
