Christian gets out of his room and goes to grab some iced tea. He sits on a couch and notices that the remote is gone. Christian snapped his fingers to test if they would work. It did and the remote lay flat on the couch. Christian watches some game show.

"Dudes?" Ginji called into HQ as he made himself some food.

*The sounds of clashing metal can be heard echoing through HQ. The source seems to be the stadium.*
~ Meanwhile ~
I'm locked in a sword duel with an unknown, non-descript opponent. He is using an eastern style two-sword fighting technique. (Katana + Wakizashi)

Ginji's head cocks up at the noises being sounded through HQ. "Is that...?" he wondered as he got up from where he was sitting and headed for the Stadium.

A furious back-and-forth battle of blades rages in the stadium. Narrow dodges, split-second parries and well-aimed strikes abound. Eventually, I manage to slip around my foe's katana, deflect a stab from the shorter wakizashi, and deliver a final slash.
The hologram disappears.

Ginji clapps a few times as he appears from the shadows of the Stadium walls. "Very nice Thard. Very nice."

I sheathe my blades.
"Why thank you, Ginji. I've been trying to keep my skills sharp, but good swordsmen are scarce these days. That's why Pory helped me put that program together. Still working out some of the finer details, but at least it has a few decent moves."

*I pop out my office*
Me: How is everyone doing this fine Saturday night?

"I wonder if it could be used in some way for Class. Or maybe future events or contests." Ginji mused as he drank another sip of water. "How high of a probability do you think it has to malfunction at any given point in time?" he asked with a smile on his face.

Ginji of Thunder "I wonder if it could be used in some way for Class. Or maybe future events or contests." Ginji mused as he drank another sip of water. "How high of a probability do you think it has to malfunction at any given point in time?" he asked with a smile on his face. Me: Well with a PorygonZ involved, I say that's probably near 0. *I try to figure out how the program works*

((I didn't know Brian's office was a detatchable module!))
"It should be possible to add new programs, but just getting a decent swordfighter was no mean feat. I'm not sure how soon we could get anything available for the Class."
Glancing over at the Holo system controls, I think it over the prospect for a moment. "If it malfunctions, it'll just shut down. There are a number of fail-safe systems at work to prevent 'Star Trek' -like disasters. Besides, the hologram can only exist where the projectors can reach. A sword can cut, but the projection can't reach deep enough to kill."

"Darn it. And here I was thinking if we had a mass invasion we could use this to help us." Ginji laughed. "Although...if it malfunctioned during a planned exercise...we could have quite the amount of fun shutting it off."

"Remember its original purpose: Holographic Colosseums. It took a long time just to get a humanoid form with fluid and realistic movement. And barring sabotage, a malfunction will trigger the projectors to power down."
I send the latest data to Pory for analysis and head for the stadium exit.

Me: Thard you don't know half of the modifications that have occurred with my office.
*I examine the holo controls*
Me: And what would happen if there were more powerful projectors?

"I'm sure we can find one of those." Ginji smirked almost evilly as he too examined the machine.
