Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sodain moved looking at it and scanning it seeing the seam he nodded. "Yes it is perfectly as I need it." He said pulling an odd looking device a band on it that auto sized around the quartz gently but holding it firmly, punching in a code it glowed and vanished being teleported to where it was needed. "Okay so what do I owe you for it?" He asked her watching her.

Sodain stared at the paper not blinking for so long one might have thought he up and turned to stone. But then he sighed and blinked slowly "Your seriously going to use this as the price?" Sodain had a look on his face of disbelief and shock as well as a not amused look.

Sodain sighs a bit. "Okay but if something bad happens because of it don't blame me." Sodain closed his eyes taking a deep breath striking the pose as drawn arms up like wings on one leg jumping up and down fluttering his hands like wings the yells "The Phoenix!" really loudly but as he did that his hair bust into a blood red and gold orange red color and eyes burning like fiery embers, and flame like wings shoot out his back arching.

And when he yelled it was like a screech of a large bird with words inside it, flames shooting out around his legs looking like bird talons. But then he smirked a bit and put his leg and arms down as the flames go away save for his hair that turned into flames. Then the water sprinklers come on spraying everywhere. "There I hope that was satisfactory for you." Sodain said though the water was spraying him it was like his clothing dried really quickly until he closed his eyes brushing his hand over his head as the flames that replaced his hair once his hand passed over his head the flame was out and his hair was seen normal and fine. Though oddly remained from getting wet for a few minutes as the sprinklers soon shut off not detecting the fire anymore.

"Yeah well I seen your next line up, Be careful of that guy. Specially with the mud now Assuming the ring is still of dirt to soak up bodily fluids. He is a lightning master and mud is a great conductor." Sodain said his arm shifting into some odd machine and built a part of a staff looking like hers grabbing it with his free hand he placed it on the table.

"An addition hidden freeze attachment put on the end of your staff his lightning release points are only his hands and feet. Knock him down getting them in the mud then plunge it into the ground, twist the way its curved and pull the get off the ground in 3 seconds the entire mud ring in a 8 foot wide circle of this will freeze hard as steel but won't hurt anyone just if your on the ground when it goes off your feet will get trapped as well. And looking at the rules its not illegal." he said then dropped a folder with the name Graviton holding all his strengths and weaknesses which would be heard over the loudspeakers.

In the arena the crowed is cheering as one announcer speaks "Wow folks just look at that even with the sprinklers going off for some reason. Which Graviton took advantage of using a shocking attack and moves on to the semi finals in under 5 seconds that has to be the quickest match on record! Graviton who gives new meaning to the powerhouse seems like he might be the one to beat our undefeated champion. Based on this match the odds are being tallied will he beat our mighty Arosa? Return tomorrow to find.... Wait a second, the judges said the odds of Arosa winning or losing is at 50/50 chances! And due to this our head operator has a few words. "Because the odds are so high I called an exception encore match for Arosa to fight Graviton tonight! The match starts in 5 minutes so place your bets and enjoy the show!"
--------
Sodain sighed a bit "Seems the guy that pays you for winning is plotting to default on your check, as the rules state in an Encore match if the champion loses they get no payment and are debited the full amount of all their winnings and prizes. So for your sake I hope you win to teach him your not going anywhere oh and that file you got 5 mins to read it." Sodain winked a bit oddly how did he know what was blotted in the private offices the stamp on the file was the stats mark for approving a fighter to battle. In the file would be a note reading "Here you are one champion beater going off the information you provided about Arosa I made this engineered fighter to match and exceed as well as being immune to hard attacks, Just don't pit him against any ice power tool users that is his armors only weakness. Your pal Malacar the mad. P.S. if enough cold air touches his armor it cracks easy."

That would be what the note read if Arosa read it. Sodain walked out going back to the front gate waiting to be let out. "Oh if you're a betting man bet big on Arosa this is a setup to net the ring masters really heavy pockets by boasting up an opponent." Sodain placing the rare coin credit in the man's hand.

Sodain had went to find an empty spot at the railing preferring to stand because he had not practiced lightening his weight other than self movements. Sodain ate a few peanuts secretly paling them into his hand as he watched recording knowing it was also displaying the fight at the place his monitors was located in the sun-star colony as he recorded it in his new data banks.

Gravitron acted scared as if he was unable to see where she went but he moved surprisingly agile for one his size it is as if he used his lighting to increase his movement speed. Jumping easily over the attack she did but as he landed it showed his balance took a hit as he slid backwards a few inches. the fingers of one hand shooting lightning out at Arosa as he slid backwards not realizing the slide slowed them just enough Arosa might be able to dodge them.

Soddenly his head turns slightly as if responding to a voice in his ear, then nodded punching the ground as a pillar sprung up made of mud though it was skinny it turned a bit hard. but was still slick mud he lunged lightning arking off the pillar to his back pushing him swiftly though this would be if she dodged it which there was a high chance she would. He shot amazingly fast across the ring reading a static punch a diode on her staff lit faintly enough it showed the direction the discharge could flow out along the mud which was based on the grooves and curves of the mud. a low groove was more likely calculated to carry the discharge. If his punch missed another pillar would rise up attaching lighting to himself.to push off to lunge quickly at her again. Which if a stick was placed into the mud at a slight angle he may end up face first in the mud sliding.

Sodain had a few peanuts in his hand loaded as if like bullets. he could shift his arm into a high powered precision rifle. He would not interfere in the match personally unless he seen dubious acts.

Graviton slid tripping on her staff falling face down his chin armor mask in the mud the impact made a thin layer of mud wash up over him in a few vital weak point that would render him unconscious if the armor was broken off and hit in them.

The mighty colossal let out a horrible scream then fell limp snoring loudly a lot of the crowd cheered a few grumbled and tore up tickets. Sodain smirked and ate a single peanut palming another as his sensor seen cloaked men slowly move to the edge of the ring. The Announcer spoke as the timer stopped at 5 seconds into the match. "What a show folks, what a show I feel sorry for those who bet on the big guy. And look at that folks in just 5 seconds she subdued this giant beast. Oh here comes the Ring master I wonder what he has to say." The man that works for the vice president and advisor walked out on a shielded platform. "Good job Arosa you fought well but on review of the video recording we seen you use illegal methods to win so your..." The speaker system of the mic seemed cut off suddenly before the ring master finished and then there was the sound of someone clearing their throat.

"Excuse me I have read the rules the tech and/or powers Arosa used are legal in article 3 subparagraph 14.b tools that quickly freeze the environment to trap an opponent is allowed as long as it does not harm or endanger the audience, masters, organizers, or anyone else. However......" The voice that was Sodain's spoke pausing. a moment for dramatic moments.

"...The use of a bio engineered weapon page 45, paragraph 6 sub paragraph 7.3 is illegal, this includes bio engineered opponents like Graviton here. I have copies of a file from the vice president himself ordering such a creation at Graviton for the explicit purpose of taking out the current champion Arosa. Which a note from Malacar the mad, a highly wanted for illegal inhuman experiments addressed to the V.P. of this city."

As Sodain's voice spoke this on the monitors showed the folder with the approval seal to fight with Graviton's name on it and the seal stamp of the Vice President. Then it showed the note addressed to V.P, of the fighting tourney. then schematics of what had been done and a signed and stamped receipt of payment with the Vice President's name on it as well as his stamp mark and a disk labeled 'Arosa's fighting techniques and other info' "As you can clearly see this person or what is still a person has been modified into a weapon for a specific purpose.

The definition of a Biological weapon is 'An organism, plant, protein, or lifeform of organic tissues designed purposefully to do a violent task.' Thus includes a human going through modifications that alter that person to do a programmed purpose. As you can see in the diagram data on the screen. 90% of the human brain of this subject was replaced by a computer to store data of Arosa's fighting styles, weaknesses and personal information. And in this case the section of brain that is still human is the apex dulla or survival reflex portion of the brain only.

Which in the human cyborg act of 2025 it states if the memory section of the brain is replaced by a computer and not to have a bigger area of memory storage that the human turned cyborg is no longer classified as a modified or improved functional human, but a living weapon. The second part of the definition of a biological weapon is 'A weapon that can camouflage as a person, plant or animal to increase ease of infiltration to perform the pre programed purpose. Including but not limited to 'cyborgs with human memories wiped out, animals or humans with small devices in their abdomen by medical implanting for the purpose to cause harm or mass destruction to people or property.' that is the definition. So the one who should be tried for illegal actions would be the Vice President that organized this underground fighting tournament, Not Arosa who is within legal standing to the rules set by the creators of this arena.

Also it was a nice try to have cloaked assassins try taking Arosa out with using a code word you would say in your speech before I interrupted the microphone you used to talk. But well they have been dealt with already." And as Sodain said that 5 figures in black cloaks fell over the railing on the opposite side of the ring from Sodain. One falling showing it was a robot. "Nice use of old silent soldier droids though. Improving their functions reaction times and lightening their armor. Unfortunately you did not make them peanut proof, Just one shot at 5 miles per hour out of an air powered tube in the base of the neck jams the gears and fries the operations boards." Sodain staying hidden while he did this and said the things he did. Then the Microphone went silent and soft audio of the ring master saying "I had no idea about this, did you?" The ring master asked and the announcer shook his head "None at all but um the microphones back on." He said to the ring master

"Oh um yes.. Well on light of this news Arosa I for one apologize for telling you what I was told by the judges, Which if I didn't know better say they been paid off by the one behind this. Congratulations since the opponent was an illegal bio weapon you win doubly for Graviton being disqualified, But since it is an after the fact realization I must say. Good fight Arosa. I had no idea he was engineered or that robotic assassins was sent in case you did beat this guy as it seems to be the case. Which we will still honor for fighting win which nets double a disqualification amount." He said sweat could be seen of looking the right way on his forehead he looked nervous like she might try taking this out on him.

Sodain slowly walked up the path from the ring still eating peanuts as if he did't do anything. Sodain waited by the gates to see if Arosa was going to go right after the vice president who usually tends to watch the fights unless he was needed by the president for something, but he was there for Arosa's last fight but oddly took off before the encore fight which the senates and councils are not working at this hour of the night so there was no rush for him to do anything really.
