"I'm prayin' right now that he didn't hit a major artery," Pathos said to herself, her throat throbbing as she spoke. Her arms and legs trembled from the lacerations all over body, and the tremendous loss of blood. She made an attempt to stand, but failed. Looking at the ceiling, the baubles of power floating down gracefully to whomever absorbed it first. Then, Aeroc got a hold of it.
"Aeroc!!! Oh my GODS!"
Pathos momentarily forgot the pain she was in and admired Aeroc's display of mind blowing power. Her eyes couldn't keep up with his movements, he was so fast! As the the exhausted warrior collapsed on her shoulder, she managed a smile, and shakily lifted her left hand to stroke his hair, not caring about their current physical conditions. She was breathing hard, and her body was begging for relief, but she took it all.
"Y-yeah, why not?," her voice sounded alien to her, but it still held that spark of happiness. She embraced him, falling back on the floor, his body on top of hers.
Another round of alarms sounded off, and Pathos knew that the grid system was coming down. The Dimensional Manse warped escaping fighters back into its hold, and kept the remaining fighters hoarded in.

Aeroc rolled over onto his back. He took off his left greave momentarily, and ripped off two pieces of cloth from his pants that he was wearing underneath. He put the greave back on. One, the bigger one, he tied lightly around Pathos' leg wound. "That should help stop the blood flow" He was tieing the other around his arm wound, when he noticed the big man that was chasing him was about fifty feet away. He grabbed one of the mystical rainbow orbs. He saw another big man also grab one of the orbs. He silently whispered a prayer to whatever gods were listening. "Pathos, we've got to get out of here" The man who was chasing him started shooting sparks from his body. Getting shakily to his feet, he started to help her get up.

Pathos knew very well, that they couldn't flee from the Colosseum.
The blood from her wound bled through the cloth easily, but staunched a little ways. She stood weakly, grasping onto his uninjured arm as steadfastly as she could. "Aeroc, we can't ~wince~ we can't, get away from here, ~pant~ the Grid is already coming down, it keeps the contestants inside," she tried to explain, all the while minding her inability to walk properly. Tentatively putting one foot forward, a sharp pain shot up her injured leg. She winced audibly, clenching her jaw.
"He tore my quads...," she said to herself, shocked at the damage.
The only hope we have is if they start sending down Rejuvenation Spheres, which were due in a few minutes, as soon as it was midnight. The only reason she knew this, was she watched countless fights, and in the middle of the bout restorative items would come down just in time. The two warriors faced off, and she couldn't help but feel an inkling of fear seep into her heart. She didn't know what was going to happen, but the air around her told her that it wasn't anything to stand around and wait for.
"You're right, we have to go somewhere safe, but if we get caught-,"she continued, the scenarios that went through her head weren't very pretty, and most of them included horrible, but spectacular deaths.
Final Smashes were going off everywhere! And lo' Pikachu descended from a fantastic display of his Volt Tackle, knocking the rest of his opponents unconscious, with the a nasty paralysis as an added bonus.
"Pikachu?"
The yellow furred mouse was a sight to see in all of this chaos! And Pathos nearly cried, as he came closer. He made his way through the deadly maze of combatants, harnessing the power of Agility. The pokemon looked somewhat battered and bruised, his fur matted in some places, but overall he was doing a whole lot better than the young woman and her companion.
"," Pikachu exclaimed, his ears swiveling this way and that trying to find a safe place for his charges.

Ike is in his castle when a weird creature walks up to him and gives him a letter. He reads through it and when he looks up the creature is gone and some sort of portal is there. Ike walks through it and is transported to Huberius. He sees the Colosseum and goes up to the front desk. "I got a letter from some weird creature telling me to come here and participate in some sort of Battle Competition. Is this the place?" asked Ike.
Lucas was teleported to Huberius. Some creature had given him a letter to come here and participate in a Battle Competition. He was awed by the city, looking all around. He bumped into a man. "Oh, sorry, excuse me." Lucas told him. "It's okay." the man said. "Are you here for the Battle Competition? Oh yeah, my name's Lucas. May I ask what your name is?" Lucas asked. "My name is Ike, and yes I am here for the battle." Ike said. "Pleased to meet you Ike." Lucas said while shaking his hand. "I guess I'll see you in there." Lucas said, walking up to the front desk.

What appeared to be a 2 Dimensional Octopus, crashed right into Nic lodging her into the wall. It only made a tiny scratch in her suit but it had huge knock back. Frustrated, tired, and angry she dislodges herself. She sees a final smash ball in the air. Her system computer identifies it as a unknown power source giving the spawn the ability to instantly eliminate an opponent(s). She sees her Trainer laying on the floor, unconscious. Fueled with more rage. She pulls out her sword and throws it at the smash ball, it's a direct hit. "This power... It is incredible.. " As she goes to grab her sword. She ran faster than she normally would. She immediately spots where Mr. Game and Watch was. "It's payback time", she muttered as she ran full speed at him.

Both Big Men Lock gazes, the one with no control and the other with to much control. These men would begin walking softy almost as if testing one another their muscles taught and tense with apprehension. All of a sudden a break and a charge, meeting halfway through neither speaking just running, no battle cry, no yell. Could this be the result of them both being at peace, Or that they had both lost their minds? Meeting in a grapple one anot7her trying to breach the others mind first and launch a mental attack that would possibly kill or disarm the other.
The Pysonic Lightning emanating from Morgans body combined with the amplification of Psychic energy coming from Matsu almost Leathal to anyone coming near, Wario bumbling through trying avoid being hit by another's smash attack wanders in and is zapped but thanks to his large body mass he manages to get away only slightly charred. This spectacle is almost surreal as two large powers seemingly clash the ground beneath them both cracks and warps as the grapple continues no punches are thrown but you can sense the internal battles waging.
Then it happens the two of them release, and their hands meet and a shake, through this both had gained a measure of respect for the other and considered the other his equal in strength.... for the time being....
Matsu then the matango wearing off slumps to the ground in a heap unable to make any attempt to move or do much of anything for a while, Morgan however cools off and merely sits down beside him wanting to watch over his new friend for the time being not wanting to let his equal be slain whilst recuperating.
Looking around scanning the combatants Morgan see's the carnage and decides that his last vestige of energy should be for peace and not malice as he releases a glowing light into the area which causes wounds to be healed ....

"No escape? Well then, All we have to do is get away from that man over there." Aeroc gestured towards the man who had been chasing him. "The one without the shirt is very dangerous. He was chasing me, and to try to slow him down, I threw a sword at him. You want to know what he did? He melted the sword. Melted it! I've never seen such a thing in my life." He saw the two titans clash, and then shake hands. "I still don't trust him"
Remembering her weapons, he said "Pathos wait here for a second." He weaved in and out of the fighters, and at one time, an arrow hit a glancing blow on his breastplate. It didn't penetrate, but it still hurt. He finally found the elbow blades within ten feet of the mangled unconsious body of wolf. He picked up the blades, and ran back without incident. He gave the blades to her, and they continued walking toward a wall. " I figure by a wall, we only have to defend in one direction." he said. "Enemies won't be able to approach from the sides."
When the small yellow creature ran up to them, Aeroc tensed. He remembered the last encounter he had with this electric mouse. But then seeing Pathos talk to it, he relaxed. How she understood it, he did not know. All it sounded like to him was "Pii pika pika chuu. Piiika" He garnered that its name was Pikachu from what Pathos said. "How are you talking to him?" He asked her.

Her eyes were starting to see double. She shook her head lightly, accepting her weapons with a small 'thank you.' He knows what he's talking about...Nice strategy, Aeroc. "It's a translator that's embedded into the employees of the Colosseum, " she replied feeling woozy, using the wall for support.
This hurts even more!
For a moment she forgot Wolf shredded some of her back, until her flesh pressed against the cold metal of the arena. She hissed audibly, her face wincing in agony, grateful for what little relief she could get.
"Aeroc...I-," she felt she was loosing blood fast, her left hand clutching her abdomen. The gashes shone a bright crimson, traveling down her body in rivulets, the wall behind her soaked with her own vitae. She didn't finish that sentence when a pleasant ringing sound echoed and bounced into the inner walls of her ears.
A huge smile replaced her grim frown. "We're going to be all right, look!," she said, pointing at large green and blue spheres floating down. Most of the registered fighters jumped up to grab them, while the others looked on in awe, confused really.
"," the pokemon said, regarding Aeroc with a twitch of his tail.

"What are those spheres?" Aeroc said. Looking over at her as he said it, He realized the full impact of her wounds. She was bleeding everywhere. "Pathos, you need something to heal you. But I'm a warrior, not a healer, so we just need to wait for something.". I'd better get back to guarding so she doesn't get even more injured.
He turned around to be met with a punch to the stomach. He doubled over. It was the catlike contestant he had knocked out. "So you think you can go and make a fool of me? Eh? I DON'T THINK SO" he roared. "Get 'im boys!"
As he said that, four fighters came out of the mass of contestants. Aeroc stood up straight, threw the leader to the ground, and slashed at one of the newcomers. He missed, but followed up with a spinning attack that cut up two of the fighters. One of them tackled him and started beating him mercilessly. Aeroc thrusted, and his sword went deep into the fighters stomach. The man beating him fell over onto the floor. Bruised and battered, Aeroc got up to face the remaining three.

[[OOC: Dramatic Music]]
"Aeroc! No~!," Pathos exclaimed, she reached out to him, her bloody hand outstretched. The muscles in her shoulders spasmed, creating a chain reaction down the entirety of her body. Lactic acid consumed and ravenously ate away every ligament and tendon into a listless cacophony of torture. She cried out in agony as white hot flashes of pain shredded her logical thought process into pieces! She wanted so much to scream, yell-do something! Tears fell from her eyes, burning her cheeks as they traveled down her chin. Everything hurt so much!
"Aeroc~! Watch out!"
She loathed the very idea of her helpless position. I knew IT! I just KNEW IT! I shouldn't have kept still!!! I've never been in this much pain before...I never allowed it to get this far-NOW LOOK AT ME! This is too much...too much...I'm TOO WEAK!, she sobbed, gritting her teeth, slamming her clenched fist into the wall. She hated this feeling of watching, just watching! She knew she had it in her to help him! The Veritas she possessed flared to life, but flickered out just as soon as it was conjured.
It barely scorched the wall. CURSE IT!!!
"You beasts! Dishonorable wretches!," she spat blood in their direction, hoping to take their focus away. One of the cat warriors came up to her, and slapped her, whipping her head to the other side. He had sickening grin on his feline features, as if to taunt the battered swordsman. She managed to get a glance at her yellow friend. It looked as if Pikachu wasn't coming back anytime soon either, since the mouse was viciously protecting the spheres he collected from several fighters at once. There were deeper marks now, but the female fighter inhaled her suffering and glared defiantly at the towering figure.
"You~! YOU SLAP LIKE YOUR MOTHER!"
Yeah, Pathos, insult the big guy and get him to tremble from your incredibly witty insult and sit here as you bleed to death...

"Pathos, stay back. You're too injured to fight!" he said as she started to try to get up. When the cat warrior slapped Pathos, Aeroc whispered "You guys don't know who you're messing with".
He ran up to the side of the cat fighter who had slapped her, and elbowed him in the side. He was sure he broke a rib. The cat man fell over, and Aeroc sheathed one of his swords, and took out a dagger from a hidden pouch on his thigh. Then, with a combination of hilt thrusts, stabs, and punches, he cut him up as badly if not worse than Pathos. Then Aeroc slapped him across the face. To the cat man, he said, "How does it feel?". He put away his dagger, unsheathed his sword, kicked the fighter over to his companions, and said "Does anyone else want to fight?"
The two fighters remaining, met this with a roar and a charge towards him. He was about to counter the attacks when the leader, who he had tossed to the ground earlier in the fight, got up and punched Aeroc in the middle of his back. Put off guard, Aeroc's defence faltered, and the two warriors started kicking and punching every inch of his body. Aeroc stabbed one in the leg, but the other just kept on attacking him until he fell over.

[[OOC: Music]]
Outside of Pathos' peripheral vision, Pikachu was savagely making quick work of his adversaries, sending bolts of lightning everywhere! He had to hurry, or else, his friends might die!
Alas, since she didn't see what was happening, it didn't matter.
Time slowly came to a halt, her vision blurring with a heavy onset of bitter tears. She stared on in horror, scarcely breathing. Her mind was in denial, This...isn't happening, can't be happening!
For every blow he got, she felt it too, two times as worse. The young woman's fingertips sparked, as she continued to witness Aeroc's beating. She was devastated-unable to do anything, if she did, she would most certainly die. But being Pathos, the embodiment of passion, Death was welcome, just so long as it was for something greater than she. She had a decision to make, and she was going to make the one that was right.
She firmly made up her mind.
Aeroc, I can't let you die, she whispered to his heart. Her empathetic abilities triggered, sending sparks flying as they flared furiously traveling up the expanse of her arm and throughout her body in bursts of crackling fire. Her eyes were heatedly mesmerizing, blazing with all the willpower she could muster-a sheen of silver coating her native amber. She got up, ignoring the pain as she tromped to the warriors, and equipped her elbow blades in a heartbeat.

Aeroc felt as if every part of his body was injured. There was but one thought in his head. I will not die. I must not die. His eyes flickered open. Coughing up blood, he grabbed the fighters ankle. With his sword, he cut the Achillies tendon. The man's foot buckled, as he could not stand. Aeroc would of liked to have gotten up and finished him off, but he could not stand. He got the message from Pathos. He felt her presence in his mind. Don't worry, I will not die. I refuse to accept death. All I'm worrying about right now is you. Please, don't die. But the injuries were too much for him. He fell into unconsciousness.

I will NEVER let you die-
""
Right then, in a flash of yellow light, Pikachu burst in, looking better than ever! He immediately threw a Rejuvenation Sphere in Pathos's chest, and instantly he followed up with a quick attack, knocking the cat warrior with the eviscerated Achilles tendon on his back. He pushed the remaining sphere into Aeroc, moving in with an Iron Tail Move on the warrior that was kicking the swordsman on the side.
""
Pathos didn't have time to react beyond the tingling feeling that spread throughout her body in a rush what felt like being adrift in the sea amidst countless bubbles. She laughed, clutching her sides. It got her every time!

[[OOC: Looks like its me and you again, posting back and forth]]
As quickly as he slipped into unconsciousness, he came out of it. Aeroc opened his eyes. His body had stopped hurting completely, and even though his clothes were blood soaked, there was not a scratch on his body. He stood up, and looked at Pathos. She had stopped bleeding completely. "What magic is this?" he said as he stabbed through the arms of the cat fighter that Pikachu was attacking. Now, looking around, there was only the leader of the fighters that had attacked him left. He was just getting up. Aeroc looked at him with eyes full of loathing, but he walked over to Pathos to see how she was doing. She seemed fine. He pointed at the leader of the fighters. "You see that guy over there? I think he deserves a little lesson."
