::JAcope X, was amazed with all these other fighters. For the first time of his life, he was nervous somehow. He did not think he would make it through the first round because he really can see these strong and fresh fighters wanting to win the grand prize. He stood in the stands, waiting for his fight. He was all pumped up and ready, so he just awaited::
Jessy caught a glance at the new fighters. They were going head up. He saw so much power between the two of these people that he almost didn't want to fight anymore.
"No. I have a job to do and I'm going to do it," he thought to himself. He had to make up his mind. Was he really going to do this. There were so many more fighters here that were way more stronger and experienced than he was.
He called his watcher Tavlin.
"Jessy, you know that you're the only one who can do this. It doesn't matter how many fighters there are in that tournament. None of them are the Slayer are they?"
"No. But these people are really strong. Plus they have uber super powers. What if I get killed."
"You remember when I first approached you about your Slayer heritage? I asked you if you were sure that you wanted to do this."
"And I said that I was. And you told me that most likely, I wouldn't see my 18th birthday."
"But you still wanted to do it. So you can't just leave. If you don't do this, who will?"
When Jessy got off the phone with his watcher, he made up his mind. "I have to fight. This is what I was born for."
Adyss sensed that he had been detected, but thankfully there were not any suspicions toward him. Evil power? Interesting... he thought, as
his body shifted and collapsed into a pile of sand which slithered around the room, taking refuge in the shadows. He reformed behind another pillar and made his way to the TV. The monstrosity of Nightmare was devastating, and the spirit and perseverance of Alex was truly noble. Who would win, Adyss wasn't sure, but he knew that soon enough his turn would come again.
Unlike the others, his eyes were not set on Nightmare. He was not satiated by his false victory over Siim, and winning against Nightmare would be just as dishonorable. Every other fighter seemed to focus on Nightmare, all sides against him. He had to destroy someone as powerful as Nightmare, but with no other enemies. Whoever the hero in this tournament was, Adyss would soon smash their skull into the dust, and only then would he become the king he once was.

~Did he call your character a boy, Kal?😆~"We're just getting to know each other," Jessy answered. "I believe that that thing, Nightmare and some guy named Alex are fighting."
Jessy had to stop and think about it. He shouldn't be making friends with the people that he had to fight. If would be to difficult to do something like that. But he couldn't do that because he was just a cool ass person. He pushed that thought out of his mind.
"So, if it's all right with you, stranger, can I ask why you are here? What are you fighting for? And can we get your name?"
Clyde folded his arms "The same reason why your here..Its obvious win over 5,000 dollars! Who could turn down such an offer?"he said. Clyde sat on the bench and watch the arena screen about the fights."I wonder if im up next cuz im itching for a fight!"
~The grand prize is only 5,000 dollars?! WTF!disgust~
"I'm not here to win any money. I have a job to do. There's some ancient evil here that I'm supposed to be slaying. But the money is an added bonus."
Jessy looked at the screen to see the one named Nightmare and Alex still going at it like WWIII. He was wondering when it was his turn to fight.

(ok just for the sake of that being a good post, im gonna let you have it..but in the future - when i type in itallics, it means my guy is either thinking or talking with telpathy)
john felt the presence left..right then he saw the sand shifting..he pretended he didnt notice as it slithered toward a different area.."interesting" he muttered aloud..he turned his attention back to the others "well" he said.."any one of us could be next after that giant bloke wins..he has a lot of confidence"
[I know. Adyss realized that he'd been detected in two ways: 1. You stopped talking, so he knew you were on to him. 2. He couldn't use his stealth with armor on or in his regular form, only in his sand form. He regretted this mistake after he had made his move. (Sorry, I should have been more clear about that.)]
Adyss noticed that Nightmare was starting to break, but was still on top of things. He also thought about whether he would suffice against his prey, or if he would have to resort to his true form- something that this mere human puppet wouldn't be able to handle. Give me strength... he thought, placing his hand on his weapon's gleaming hilt.
::JAcope X was doing chin ups, even though it was nothing really. He did them from the top of a tree, trying to focus. He did not want to lose, and had to focus on trying not to let the other fighters control the fight at all. He had to try everything he can to win the fight without any struggles. of course, that is impossible against all these other fighters::
(ah ok cool 😎 )
john put the moving sand guy to the back of his mind and focused on his friends...he knew what jacope was thinking..he chuckled "yea i know..ive got the same feeling..its going to be tough..you know, we couldve used some of these guys back in the old days...but then again only a few of them wouldve been old enough to fight"
"dont think you can take me like that" john said, snapping his fingers.."oh yea..by the way..you cant use him" he added, leaving the secret of "justice" a secret, "that counts as servere cheating..mostly because jacope and i are then only ones who stand the small chance of taking you should he (she?it?) decide to show..besides, once he arrives whatever unseen enemy we face will flee and so our chance of success is limited"

"What fun would it be if I used him during a tournament? It'd be easier than a cakewalk for me then. No, it's best if he sits tournament fights out. Not just for me, but for the other fighters as well."

Jessy got bored watching someone else fight. "So what are you two up to until it's your turn to fight," he asked Marie-Lee and Clyde. "We should go get something to eat. I don't think that they'll be calling us to fight for a while anyways. Y'all wanna join me?"
Clyde nodded his head"Yeah unless they have some chicken!"he said.Clyde put his hands in his pockets "But I wanna fight next."
