Natascha was walking towards The Arena, Rang at her side.
She kept walking as she spoke to him "So how long until you think the Arena will be complete enough for a tournament."
Rang shrugged his shoulders "What am I, an architect now?"
Natascha laughed "No, I was just asking for your opinion. And you seem to have lightened up a lot since the last tournament."
Rang laughed as well "Well I no longer have to execute people, or fake executions as the case was. And i my opinion it will probably only be a week or two before The Arena is completely finished. That is, if the builders dowhat they're getting paid to do."
Natascha stopped walking when they got close to The Arena "Well with te amount we're paying them I dn't think they have an issue with hard work."
She then reached into her pockets and pulled out a list with 12 names on it "Could you please run a background check on these people and then report back to me as soon as possible."
Rang took the note and scanned through the names "Well, there's four here that we already know from the previous tournament so I should have the report for you tomorrow at lunch time."
Natascha nodded "Cool. I'll give you a extra day in case you need it then."
Rang nodded and left to begin his task.
Natascha stayed to watch the construction for a little while longer before leaving.

=====The next day=====
Rang found Natascha supervising the construction. In his hand he had a folder with all the background checks he was asked to run.
He approached Natascha "Excuse me Natascha, the background checks you asked for are done."
Natascha turned around to face Rang "Thank you Rang. And I see you've stopped calling me "madam" and "miss" now."
Rang nodded "Yes, it was getting a little bit tiring. Anyway, I found nothing of any severe importance with any of the names."
Natascha nodded "Very well. Could you please send each participant a video and a letter stating where the island is, what they should bring and that they are allowed to bring friends, family, coaches, etc."
Rang nodded "Very well Natascha. I'll get to it now."
Natashca smiled "Thanks a lot Rang."
Rang walked off to send the letters and Natascha resumed supervising the construction.

((Ok, the letters are sent. The island is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Just post saying how you get the message and how you get to the island. NOTHING ELSE AT THIS TIME.))

((i'll start off with the veteran first and get to the newcomer after a while))

Raphael was standing out on a balcony overlooking parts of New York City. in the distance you could see that the empire state building was being replaced with a new, better structured building. the sun was resting just over the construction site. he turned as he heard footsteps and smiled as he saw his new wife Talia walking towards him. they kissed and looked out towards the site "life is good now huh? no more demons to kill, the world is back to how it was..." Raphael chuckled "and no one has found out that you're a succubus yet..." Talia smiled at the comment "yep, life is good......hey who's that coming to our front door?"

a lone man looking to be in his 30s walked up and rang the doorbell of their house. Raphael leaned over the edge of the balcony and called to the man "hold on i'll be right there." the man looked up and nodded. Raphael transfered from the balcony to just behind the front door, he opened it and the man looked at a picture in his hand. when he was sure of who he was speaking with he handed Raphael a small package and walked off. Raphael was looking at the package as Talia approached him "what is it?" "not sure, but it seems awfully familiar." he opened the package and a video tape and letter fell out. immediately he knew what it was "well it looks like another invite."

when Talia heard that last word she got tense "ooohh no! you're not going unless i'm allowed too. you remember what i told you would happen if you left me behind again dont you?" Raph sighed and nodded his head, all the while reading the letter "i know that Talia...hmmm?" he noticed a certain sentence in the letter that caught his eye

"friends are welcome to attend as spectators"

he smiled as the info sunk in "well it seems you can come along, so let's get the details from the tape and head to the tournament." Talia, still upset that he was so eager to join another tournament let out a sigh "ok...i just cant wait for it to be over." Raphael looked at her oddly "you're saying that even before the tournament begins? you really had a grudge against it didn't you?" she crossed her arms, looking frustrated "yes, i did. now play the tape so we can leave already." he placed the tape in the VCR and after figuring out where to go transfered to a boat rental shop. it was pricy, but Raphael and Talia's fame for saving them from an apocalyptic future got them a boat that was on the house.

they set sail ((yes they are using a sailboat)) and using Talia's power over the wind, made their voyage quick and easy. eventually they spotted the island and they sailed over to the docks.

((done with Raph & Talia, i'll do Tobias' post soon.))

Tetsuya was walking down a street in Okinawa with Managatsu in tow. They were discussing a subject of not too much importance. "Look, I'm just curious what you think I should get her?" "Well I don't know her well enough. Just get her something you think she will like." "Figures you would say that. I'm still a little nervous. I'm not good at picking up gifts for someone, and I just want to get her something really nice." "I'm the one who taught you to follow your instincts, Tetsuya. Have you forgotten how-"

All of a sudden someone called out from across the street. "MR. TETSUYA! WAIT UP!" Tetsuya eyes widened from the familiar sound of the person. "You have got to be kidding me. Please tell me that's not the same person?" Tetsuya turned as the man ran at him from across the street. It was the same man from when he was invited to his last tournament. The man stopped in front of Tetsuya, and huffed from running. "I don't believe this. How are you even still alive?" "You...would be...amazed at what I can live through."

"You know this man, Tetsuya?" Tetsuya slapped his forehead with his hand. "Yes, I do. He gave an invitation to last tournament I was in. So what brings you to find me this time....er" "The names Greg, and I bring you another invitation to another tournament," he said, handing Tetsuya an small package. An envelope was attached to the front. Tetsuya opened the envelope and read it through. "Huh, looks like Natascha is holding a tournament. Oh, and look. There are new rules this time. I like the new 'no killing rule'. Means I get to go if I butter up Aarna." He noticed the statement that said he could bring a friend for support or to spectate. "Oh boy. I wish I could bring Aarna. Looks like you're coming with me my friend." "Alright, but just expect me to help you out too much." "Gotcha. Thanks, Greg. I'm gonna be there to partci- Yipe!"

Tetsuya looked behind him to see a little kid pulling on his tail. "Hello there. Do you like my tail?" Before the little kid could say anything, his mother gave her son a good scolding. She then apologized to Tetsuya for the inconvenience. "No problem ma'am. I've got that kind of trouble too." He lifted his right hand, and rubbed the gold ring on his finger. He looked up in time to see Greg checking out the departing mothers butt. "Hey, wait a minute? I thought you were gay." Managatsu slapped his own hand to his own forehead because of Tetsuyas bluntness. "Nope, I'm bi. Well I've done my job. See you, Mr. Tetsuya." "Yeah, OK. Bye" Tetsuya and Managatsu returned to the subject that they were discussing before been interrupted while walking down the sidewalk.

Location: Around the next corner ready to pounce
"Eukota! Eukota!" A voice yelled, drawing a young wolves attention as he turned with his deep red eyes to acknowledge the familiar voice that called to him."What now Ninoka?" Turning around around just in time to find a young female wolf barreling towards him. Before he knew it they were on the ground, with his sister Ninoka sitting on him with a cheerful smile on her face."Something you need to tell me?" He growled irritably. Ninoka thrusted a new two piece she'd been saving up her money for in his face with a small yelp of delight.

"Is this all you tackled me for?" Pushing her hands out of the way as she laughed."No silly, i tackled you for a good reason this time!" Eukota wasn't convinced as he stood to his feet and put his sister down in front of him."Y'know you could just greet me like any normal girl." He spoke calmly, in the midst of conditioning his body through his fighting. Ninoka jumped on him and licked his face with a playful smirk."Normal right?" Making Eukota smile in spite of her behavior.

Ninoka suddenly dropped to a handstand and began to sweep her feet at his chest and face, only to be avoided by Eukota who often times sparred with her."Not now Nin." He grinned, as he gathered his belongings and headed down the trail towards home on the coast of Brazil. Eukota motioned for Ninoka to follow, who quickly jumped on his shoulders on the ride down."Your lucky you have me y'know Euko." Ninoka grinned, jumping down to walk with her older sibling."I mean, who else would you have besides me?" She smirked, hooking her arm with his as the house came into view.

Eukota smirked over at his sister as he took off for the house. "Not Fair!" She howled, chasing after him."Well Nin, i don't know if i'd even be here without you." Spotting the familiar face of the mail boy from the nearby town sitting on the dock near Nin and Eukota's home. Ninoka immediatly ran to sort the mail as he headed inside to clean up. As he washed up in the shower that over looked the bay his sister bursted into the bathroom with a letter.

"Eukota,Eukota! We're invited to something!!" Falling into the shower curtain as she gave him the letter. Eukota read it in silence, a look of uncertainty crossing his face as his sister looked on quietly.

"Looks like we're going on vacation sis." He smiled, covering up his manhood as he stepped from the shower. He threw on some shorts still dripping wet and began to read through the packages contents, throwing in a Tape that explained it all...

Eukota smirked at his sister who smiled in return."I'll arrange a flight." Ninoka barked, leaving Eukota to think about what it was going to be like.
-------
[In the wee hours of the morning Ninoka arranged a flight and boat out of Austrailia to get them there, and the flight was leaving in 24 hours.]

Dan was lying on a California beach, thoroughly enjoying his vacation. The first few days had been even better, because those were before Salen had determined his location... and followed him, all the way to California. He sighed, thinking how long can it take for a restraining order to go through the courts? After it was finalized, Dan would never have to deal with that annoying fan ever again. And after all, that's all that Salen is: a fan. And what do all fans have in common? The instant you lose, they're gone. Shaking his head, Dan made himself stop thinking that way. He was normally so happy, but damn it Salen was annoying.

He didn't have much more time to relax, for it wasn't long before a man in a suit and sunglasses walked up to Dan. "Dan Foren?" He asked. "You got him" Dan replied, wondering what the suit-clad guy was there for. His question was soon answered as the man threw a package on him, a brown parcel the size and shape of a video tape. Attached to it was a piece of paper. "What's this f-" Dan stopped talking when he realized the suit-wearer had already left. Unfolding the paper, Dan began to read it. He learned that he was invited to a tournament, watch the video for more info, yadda yadda, and he froze at the part that mentioned spectators and friends of the participants being able to come. Oh no... oh [censored] no... I have to leave now, before "Hey Mr. Foren, what's that?" said a sweet and peppy sounding voice which made Dan groan in agony. He tried to hide the paper, but it was too late, Salen had seen the paper, and her eyes grew wide as she read it. "No, you may not come with me" Dan said, "look, it says spectators and friends of the participants. We both know that you'll be bugging me and probably everyone else there, so that rules out you just being a spectator. And you're no friend of mine, so that rules out the second option."

Dan stopped talking when he looked and saw that Salen was looking at the ground in a depressed way, tears beginning to appear in her eyes. Sighing, Dan knew he was going to regret what he was about to do. "Look... if you want to.... go with me that much, then I suppose you can go with me."

"Great!" Salen said, amazingly upbeat after how she'd been only seconds before. In only a few hours they were on a plane, heading off to the island. All of this sounded suspiciously like a tournament that Dan's neighbor, Drisk, said he'd been in a few years ago.

((he knows Drisk, what a twist!))

Saki was sitting at home at her dining table having dinner, her own special recipe for fried rice. She sat there for 15 minutes after having finished eating her dinner.
She sighed I wish something interesting would happen in my life. All I seem to do is participate in Ninjutsu and BJJ tournaments at a national level and win. I want something more challenging than this.
Sighing again she got up and decided to have a shower.
She shed all her clothing and hopped into the shower, turning the water up really hot and creating a heap of steam.
She'd been in the shower for a good 30 minutes when the door bell rang.
Nope, forget it. I'm going to ignore it and they'll go away in a few minutes thinking that I'm not home.
She stayed in the shower for another 10 minutes, the whole time with the door bell ringing.
"OK FINE, I'M COMING!" she yelled as she stepped out of the shower
Nope stuff it. I'm answering naked.
She walked to the door and opened it, standing in the door way completely naked but with a lot of steam surrounding her body "Yes."

The man at the door looked at all the steam and then at Saki "I have a package for you madam Saki."

Saki nodded "OK, well then give it to me."

The man nodded and looked down to pick up the package. When he looked back up to deliver it all the steam surrounding Saki had dissipated and he stood in shock for a few seconds before passing out.

Saki smiled "I love doing that to people."
She then took the package off his unconscious body and left a note that said thank you before closing the door and heading inside.
She placed the package on her bench and opened it. She read the letter quickly and then placed the video into a VCR player.
While still naked she watched the video and then went to her room and packed some clothing.
After she'd packed some clothing she pulled out an extremely short mini skirt that barely covered her G-string and put it on, then put on a tank top that just covered the bottom half of her bust and left the house with her 2 suitcases.

She made her way to the airport, booked a private flight and flew to the island.

Arriving at the island she waited at the airport and docks area for somebody to come over to her and show her where to go.

((Everybody meets at the same area so anybody else at the island already can talk to Saki if they want.))

Arriving on the island, Dan and Salen walked out of the plane and onto the airport area. Dan was at the end of his rope, Salen had been talking to him nonstop the entire flight. Damn it but Dan hated fans. The two of them looked around for anyone else who had arrived yet. Seeing someone off in the distance, they walked up to her (Saki) and Dan said "hi there, are you here for the tournament too?"

Saki turned around as she heard somebody saying hi to her. "Oh hi. And yes, I'm here for the tournament too. Are you both here for the tournament?"

((FYI Drisk. Both Dan and Salen can see the top half of Saki's bust.))

Smiling, Dan said "well, I'm here for the competition. She" and here Dan pointed to Salen, "is here because it's quite obvious that if god exists, he hates me. So, it seems like whoever's running this managed to pick out some top-quality fighters, this should be fun assuming the other competitors are as good." "No one's nearly as good as you, Mr. Foren!" said Salen over-excitedly. Sighing, Dan used all of his concentration to not stare at the top of Saki's.... bust, as well as not letting Salen get on his nerves.

((Thank you for that bit of information. :P ))

((Don't mention it :mrgreen: Also, you said Drisk at one point in the post.))

Saki looked at Dan and Salen "So you two aren't together then? Oh, and I'm Saki."
She bowed a little bit when she said this, showing even more of her bust to Dan and Salen.

Dear god, it's like she's doing this on purpose Dan thought as Saki bowed. awww man.... they're bigger than mine Salen thought at the same time. After Saki had bowed, Dan's face had taken on a temporary redness which soon faded. "I'm Dan Foren, and.." here Salen interrupted with "I'm Salen Trasia, Mr. Foren's biggest fan!" Dan was silent for a few seconds, and then said "yes... this is Salen, she is completely insane, as can plainly be seen."

Saki noticed that Dan had gone a little red and laughed a little on the inside before replying to them both "It's nice to meet you both and don't worry Salen. I don't think that you're at all insane."

This restaurant isn't half bad. Verluk thought as he cut up another slice of the potatoes, impaled it with the fork, and placed it in his mouth. I should come here more often.
The restaurant was placed in the outskirts of Stockholm. Verluk had come here mostly out of curiosity. To see what kind of opponents Scandinavia had to offer. And to be honest, some of the fighters had been very good. One of them had actually been close to beating him, but that was mostly because he had been lucky and surprised Verluk. Anyhow, it would soon be time to move on again. As beautifull as Sweden was, there wasn't many tournaments to participate in here.

Suddenly a girl came running into the restaurant. She couldn't be much older than 16 by the looks of her. But then again, one could never be sure now a days. Verluk didn't spend her much thought, but she quickly caught the attention of many other people, standing there panting. She seemed very nervous, and stretched her neck to better get a veiw out over the crowd. She was probably looking for someone.
Suddenly she gave out a loud gasp and started running towards Verluk, cruising between the tables and the people sitting at them.
"Sir!" she called out, and stopped as she reached the table where Verluk was sitting. She started panting again, and reached inside the backpack she was wearing on her back. She pulled out a package with a note atatched to it.
"This is for you, mister Tashona." She said, gasping for air. Verluk looked at her with a cold gaze, and reached out and grabbed the package. "This had better been important. Don't you have any manners? Disturbing someone in the middle of his dinner?"
The girl looked down into the floor, and whispered with a shaking voice, "sorry sir. But it is very important! And very urgent, since you were so far away! I've been looking for you for days!"
Verluk looked down at the package and sighed. He got out of his chair, and placed his left hand on the girl's head. "Well if you're that dedicated, you might as well take me somewhere I can watch this."

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

Two days later Verluk arrived at the island where the tournament was supposed to take place. He was sweating in his leather clothes, but that's just something that he'd have to live with. Nothing that couldn't be endured with a strong anough psyche.
He jumped asore before the boat had even stopped completely. He wasn't carrying any packing. He bever did. Everything he was going to need he was carrying on his person. A bit away he could see a group of tree people. One man and two women. Or rather girls by the look of them. One of them couldn't be covering more than ten percent of her body, and the other one looked like the average fan girl. It didn't take him long to realise that he was probably going to despise them, even after getting to know them. If he ever did.
He started walking up to them regardless, with the intention of asking them if they knew where they were supposed to go next. Atleast the man looked like another contestant.

Kanda woke up, someone was at the door. "Coming~" he said as he stood up. He was curently living in a small appartment in Belgium, he walked to the door, not even bothering to dress. He opened the door, a delivery girl was at the door. "P-Package!" "Hmm?" "...I have a package for a mr. Imogen?" "I'm Kanda Imogen." The girl offered him a signing sheet. "Sign here please," she asked nervously. "I don't really have a pen on me."

The girl took one from her front pockets. "Thanks," Kanda muttered as he signed. The girl started walking away blushing. Kanda frowned, "Weirdo.."
He went back inside and opened the package, he read the letter and watched the videotape. "Hmm.. Now I can test my skills," he said smiling.
-------------------
After flying over by plane Kanda arrived at the island. He walked over to the group of people, he had a headphone on and a backpack on his back. "Hey, you people here for the tournament thingy as well?"

Tobias was sitting at a bar enjoying his shot of brandy, a few girls were sitting next to him giggling. after a few drinks and some friendly conversation they walked to a nearby hotel.

the next morning he woke up and the ladies were still asleep in the bed. he got up, got dressed, and walked out the door of the building. he was almost home when a strange man walked up to him "Tobias?" "yes that's me, what do you need?"

the man handed him a small package and walked off "huh...that was odd." he walked inside and was greeted with a kiss from a woman with wings on her back and head. "hey hon, what do you have there?" "dont know, some guy just gave it to me." he opened the letter and read the contents, followed by opening the package, revealing a video tape ".....................a tournament huh? and friends are allowed to come along." he looked at the woman "wanna go?" she shook her head "no i think i'll stay here, someone has to look after things." she winked at him and he smiled "ok then, i'll see what the tape has to say and be off." the woman nodded and smiled back "ok Tobi, just try not to take too long there ok" he nodded in acknowledgement to her words as he was finishing the tape. he stood up and walked to the fireplace, he picked up his sword; Demon Fang and walked out the front door "i'll come back as soon as i can
============================
Tobias had finally arrived at the island by helicopter, somewhat surprised that they'd have an air route that goes to the middle of the Pacific. they landed on the island and he hopped off. the pilot tossed him a remote with a button on it "press that when you're ready to be picked up." with that the copter took off. Tobias walked over to a nearby group of people, usually he was the talkative type, but he also wasn't one to interrupt others so he replied to the question "yep, from the looks of it all of us are."
