The coliseum is an oval (ellipse) with the outer measurements as follows: Length: 189 meters (615 ft) Width: 156 meters (510 ft) Height: 48 meters (157 ft). The inner measurements (arena area) Length: 88 meters (287 ft) Width: 56 meters (180 ft) Height: 4.6 meters (15 ft). Modeled akin to the coliseum in Rome, Italy. The interior of the arena is a simple pit of packed dirt, the thousands of seats available for many to view the happenings within. The arena itself is protected on the walls closing it in with runes, keeping the audience from potential danger of stray attacks and a wide range of damage. These runes also keep the foundation of the arena from being all but obliterated.

XXXXXX At 5'9" 185lbs. Heita's build was obviously that of a conditioned man but how conditioned was difficult to tell under his garments. To make matters worse. He wore predominately white, with only slight accents of black. With the sun high in the sky, it made the combatant seem to radiate brilliance and majesty. An irritant for all those attempting to look at him directly.
XXXXXXA good night's rest by a good woman. Heita was poised, calm and overall in a good mood. It eminent from him. "Blessing to Elishar!.." He shouted with a perfect open mouth smile. He was the quintessential white knight and the confused reactions of the crowd showed how awing he actually was.

A second figure would enter the fighting arena from the opposite end, and all at once a wall of sound would erupt from the audience as the crowd-favorite made his appearance.
Elliot Pope was in the ******** building.
His normal greasy mop-top was now a clean buzz cut, but aside from that he looked the same. The Cuban donned dingy khaki cargo shorts and a black sleeveless shirt, exposing his brown skin to the bright afternoon sunlight. He inhaled and took in the moment as he looked amongst the audience. (Charge+1) Elliot had been waiting all day to stomp a *****'s face in, and now the time had finally come.
The metahuman peered across the arena at his opponent, who seemed blissfully unaware that his all white outfit would soon be a dark red. He gripped the handle of his kama and walked forward towards his opponent, his sword sheathed at his right hip.

XXXXXXOnce his opponent stepped into the arena, he would find himself faced with the most peculiar sight. Giant bright yellow lettering outlined in blue suddenly appeared from no where before him. Along with the lettering was an overly hyper female Japanese accented voice to sound the word;
XXXXXXIt was during this moment that Heita's last known position made the sound of pistons releasing air. The word would then fade out of existence in as quick a fashion as it had appeared and for a split second Elliot could see Heita charging towards at slightly above normal human speeds. How fast exactly and when he would arrive? Gauging that would be distorted by the sudden appearance of a second word seemingly dropping from the heaven's into line of sight. Brick red lettering this time with black outlining and accompanied by the same shrill accented voice;
XXXXXXCrashing through the second word like a glass window came Heita. Armored right knee thrust forward to make impact with the upper-body of his opponent. The pieces of FIGHT! crashing down around him and exploding into particulars. It sounded and looked like glass but felt like nothing. An elaborate diversion to facilitate the all-melee fighter to close distance and possibly land a free Mortar Knee Strike.
Mortar Knee Strike - A forward jumping knee strike propelled by Apex Authority, allowing the execution of the move to cover 2 feet and be performed faster. [50% Aggressive bar]

And just like that with no introduction or anything, the fight had begun. Elliot solidified his stance as his opponent approached him head on. The initial lettering of "Ready" caught the metahuman off guard, but his knowledge of 2D fighting video games gave him the feeling that there would be more on the way.
By the time "Fight" appeared, Elliot was looking looking through the spaces in the letters to keep track f his opponent. Unless Heita had changed his pace the Cuban could anticipate his location. It was only matter of what Heita would attack with.
As the brick letters gave way to Heita's flying knee, Elliot reacted with a pivot of his torso, turning his chest to the left. This would remove Heita's target and give additonaly torque for his counter attack, dropping the kama in his right hand on his opponent's left collar.

XXXXXXIndeed the fight had began but what his opponent had failed to realize is this was the customary greeting on the fields of battle from which Heita hailed. After a compulsory exchange of wits through fist then and only then could words be had. You had to make sure you could understand each other. Make sure you understood the same language.
XXXXXXMissing his target as he spun to the wayside and out of sight, Heita furthered his attack in order to evade and regain distance. His Mortar Knee Strike evolving into a Mortar Knee Bomb so as to evade the incoming kama strike and place the white knight an additional two feet from his opponent.
XXXXXXUpon landing, Iyam would pivot to face the weapon clad warrior just as the strike was reaching full arc. Lunging forward off the back leg, Heita's left came up into a mid guard before him as his right fell to his waist side coiled. A sunset aura emitted from the chambered hand and has Heita came down on his opponent, his left would clear the path for his right to power through with.The forward movement of the lunge reinforcing the potency of the strike as Heita sunk into a forward/arrow stance.
"HEITA CANNON-ON-ON-NN-N!!!"
XXXXXXThe crowd, being veterans of the fighting scene, called out the iconic strike along with it's performer. He was not yet renowned but Heita was fast growing recognition not only for being a strong competitor but for also being able to tame Jay S. Bourne.
XXXXXXFlickering into existence now above Heita was a name plate and stamina/health bar. As Iyam repositioned into a tight boxing guard from his assault, hit or miss, his aggression/energy came into view below him. The match was now officially underway.

As Elliot's opponent escaped his striking range he would cancel his attack mid-swing, and reset himself to prepare for his inevitable counter. His brown eyes ran over the man, scanning his movements for telegraphing when Heita lunged forward. The metahuman seized his chance to strike.
Colonel Iyam A Heita

With Heita's right hand coiled at his side, Elliot had seen enough anime to know where this attack coming from. As he struck Elliot tightened his grip on his kama and paused. He waited till Heita had committed his momentum,till it was too late for him to take it back, till the last possible second. Then suddenly a silver crescent as the thief's swift hand drove the blade of his kama into his opponent's attacking elbow, swinging upwards from left to right.

XXXXXXGood, it wasn't his intent but this would serve to aid Heita more then harm. This wasn't anime nor was it a 2D fighter despite current appearances. It was a real life fight between two real life combatants and you don't bring just your fist to a tournament with no weapons restriction. No matter how confident in your ability you may be.
XXXXXXHeita was nobody's fool. At least not in this respect. He was breed for battle, cultivated and developed for the sport. He was a warrior. A white knight and it wasn't just a euphemism.
XXXXXXHeita was literally inducted into Knighthood. A modern style paladin who were advanced armor; the SAHC T-1 Riot Suit modified specifically for usage by Heita. If not for the suit, Heita might've lost an arm instead of being able to trap his opponent into taking a hot blast to the face. The ruse being that the suit looked more like a hoodie and jean combo then what it was.
XXXXXXBut all was not lost, the upswing still caused Heita's elbow to to hyper-extend. The suit primarily protecting against cuts and scrapes, it did little versus bludgeon damage. This meant that Heita Cannon's power was cut in half as his shoulder broke formation in order to save the arm from breaking against the kama. Clenched teeth and gritted screams denoting the pain the strike had inflicted.
XXXXXXFall back and regroup, trained instincts kicking in causing the Colonel to break stance and backpedal. All the while holding the elbow of his right arm. Once at a safe distance, he would simply shake of the pain. The sound of an air piston releasing air belied that there was more to the man once again.

SAHC Modified T-1 Riot suit: A full body powered suit that doubles as light armor. The gauntlets, greaves, chest plate, back plate H.F.O. housing, pauldrons and helm are all made of metal tungsten alloy. The remaining metal pieces that cover the upper-arms and upper-legs are made of high grade ablative armor grade ceramic. Beneath all this is a spider silk synthetic mesh. This makes the T-1 is temperature and ballistic resistant. On the back of this particular T-1 sits Heita’s iconic H.F.O. acting as a guard to the suits power unit.

This may not have been a 2D fighter, but between Heita's exaggerated gestures and shouting his name and attack before doing it, it was hard to tell this man from any other clown. If he had any formal training, the karate-ka couldn't tell. Nonetheless, Elliot wasn't the type pf ***** to get caught slipping. He would see this battle through with diligence in his actions until his opponent fell to his knees. Just like any other time.
The thing about head shots is that as rewarding as they are, they're hard to get.
They're such small limbs compared to the rest of the body, and thanks to the neck, they're nimble, especially when on the shoulders of a veteran and triple OG of Gaia's underground fighting scene.
Following his previously stated goal to not ******** around, Elliot had moved his head five inches to the right at the same time as his swing. His head of course was faster than his arm, so by the time his weapon made contact his head was already resting on his shoulder.
Elliot felt mild sting as the heat of the blast licked his ear. Close one.
Elliot would not pursue his opponent as he fell back. Taking in a breath, the metahuman drowned out the jeers of the blood thirsty crowd as he grew his power (charge +1).
Elliot's left hand would fish into his pocket.

As he continued to draw his power(charge +1) he quickly glanced at the timer ticking off to the right. The crowd moaned, eager for bloodshed instead of a staring contest, and Elliot was never one to disappoint his fans.
Retrieving a glass orb from his pocket.
"You scared now or something?" He grinned, taunting his opponent.
"You thought you was slick or something with that blast. C'mere, I got somethin' for ya."

XXXXXXHeita just continued to stare at his opponent. He was unyielding in his gaze. Penetrating. Despite appearances or belief, Heita did consider himself a warrior and a veteran of the field. He conducted himself as such only using tactics that work and never doing the unnecessary just for the sake of doing the unnecessary.
XXXXXXHe didn't know what his opponent was plotting, no indication of what the glass orb was capable of or what utility it provided. He combined this with the fact finding mission he had embarked on with his first two maneuvers. The opponent was incredibly agile, had a very high reaction speed and was somewhat omniscient.
XXXXXXScared? No...weary or rather cautious. He was on the defensive now seeing as one of his advantages had been revealed. He would gather information, assess the situation and act accordingly from this moment on.

Just as Heita was watching Elliot, the metahuman's brown eyes were trained on the "knight." El was ready for war, scanning his opponent for an opening to pounce on.
Lunging in at Heita, Elliot would sprint forward, his arms pumping up and down at his sides and he the distance closed between the men, As Heita entered his attack radius Elliot would slash at his body with the kama in his right hand, starting at Heita's right and finishing on his left

Colonel Iyam "Airstrike" Heita Health [][][][][][][][][][] XXXXXXHeita stalwart death stare transformed as he saw his opponent make a beeline for him. This is what he was waiting for. Heita was a straight forward man and the way he fought was no different. Subterfuge and guile was not outside his grasp of reasoning but he much more preferred a proper no holds barred slug-fest. So without further ado and with hungry eyes, he marched forward as his opponent sprinted in. Another iconic aspect of the soon to be renowned Ivory Man-at-Arms.
XXXXXXHeita would lead in with his right as his opponent came to a halt to attack. Heita would block with his armored forearm just under the blade where it would meet the shaft. At the same time, stepping in and reaching forward with his left to control his opponent by the shoulder. This was done to safely deliver a punishing roundhouse to the back of Elliot's right thigh. Greaved shin looking to follow through past the thick meat of Pope's leg.
Simple and quick strike that mostly numb the leg.
XXXXXXHit or miss, Heita would maintain his control on Elliot. Looking to keep his advantage of being on the outside of the man with his core exposed to him due to control of the right arm.
Time to teach this little whippersnapper the difference between his reality and games.
Aggression bar [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Aggression Bar - A sort of checks and balance system for his powers, when engaged in a fight, Heita produces a visible-to-all power gauge over his feet. Its maximum percentage is 300%. Using Apex Dynamic/Authority diminishes the bar, using normal attacks and grabs replenishes it. All normal attacks fill the bar at a rate of 15% [**].
Normal attacks include all punches and kicks minus strike force (aka one-button attacks). [**] Regardless of if the normal attacks hit anything; Heita still gains 15% of his Aggression Bar.
