Previously, on Doomsday Rider V, QBG-Aries was defeated, and M-VI-Nupperm
escaped from his fight with Psychodogg. Now, at this very moment, the Bloodsport
XIX Tournament is ready to begin.
3:01: Over Vela-Sei
"What is that?" Koujii asked.
"That is the Serpent Dragon," Ako answered. The Serpent Dragon had begun his
mission to destroy all planets in his way to Neopia. Emperor Kaltex had spotted
the Seprent Dragon, too. He and Reo were watching it streak across the afternoon
sky.
"So, the legends about the Serpent Dragon were true, eh?" Kaltex asked to no
one in particular.
"I guess so, your highness," Reo answered. Every Vela-Sei watched the Serpent
Dragon fly by in silent awe. All of Vela-Sei was now aware that the Serpent
Dragon was very real.
4:00 PM NST: Bloodsport Arena
Everyone was aware of the match standings. The first match would be me versus
Kentan, the second match would be Gemini versus Shadow, the third match would
be Boomdogg versus Cushidra, and the fourth match would be Anubis III versus
MagnaShoyru18. The tournament would begin any second now. All of us were anticipating
our matches, except for Cushidra, who was lingering in the back of the room.
"In this Bloodsport Tournament, there will be no count outs. The only ways
to win are to either knock your opponent out of the ring, or force your opponent
to give up," Lex said into his microphone. "Now, introducing the first
bout, Doomsday_Rider versus Kentan," Lex said, stepping out of the ring.
I calmly walked into the ring alongside Kentan, who was adjusting his red martial
arts belt.
"You will give me your best fight, right?" Kentan asked, focusing his attention
on me for a moment.
"You bet I will," I answered. It was the truth. I'd never give a fight
any less than one hundred percent. We both stepped into the stone ring. I'm
not going to go over every step of the match. If I did, it'd take up at least
two parts, and since I don't want to write that long, I'll just write a few
things that happened. The fight went on for what seemed like an eternity, but
it was really just eighteen minutes. The fight was basically a stalemate until
very late in the match. We were both lying face-first on the cold stone ring,
struggling to get up. Kentan, agile as he was, was the first to stand up. He
rushed me, and I side-stepped him. He tripped over my leg, and I head-butted
him out of the ring.
"The winner of the first match is Doomsday_Rider," Lex said into his microphone.
The next match was Gemini versus Shadow. The match went by relatively quickly,
especially considering the fact that they were beating each other into bloody
pulps every time one hit the other. Finally, after an awesome combination attack
from Shadow, Gemini fell, and couldn't get back up before Shadow threw him out
of the ring. The next match was Boomdogg versus Cushidra. They both walked to
the ring calmly, and stepped into it at the same time.
Cushidra was waiting calmly for the get-go with his arms folded behind his
back. Cushidra had a black jewel in his his left hand. When Lex signaled for
the match to begin, Cushidra and Boomdogg stared each other down, while Cushidra
was calmly throwing the black jewel up and catching it every time. After a few
seconds, Cushidra threw the jewel high into the air, caught it, and held it
out in front of him.
"Dark Kanena!" Cushidra shouted as a spear of light shot out of the jewel and
hit Boomdogg right between the eyes, throwing him out of the ring in a single
shot. Not a single being in the entire arena could believe how easily Boomdogg
was defeated. Cushidra calmly walked out of the ring and back to the backstage
area. When Boomdogg got to the area, he was holding his forehead. We talked
him into lowering his paw. When he did, we all saw a bright red trickle of blood
streaming down from Boomdogg's forehead.
"Man, that had to have been a pretty strong attack to draw blood from you on
the first hit," Shadow said, amazed.
"Yeah, well, you might have to go up against him Shadow," Boomdogg said, smiling,
despite the fact he was feeling immense pain in his head. We could all see it
through his face.
5:27 PM NST: Behind the Bloodsport Arena
Psychodogg was rooting through some junk behind the arena, looking for the
Bloodsport XIX trophy. He heard a sort of a whisping sound behind him. He snapped
his head around and studied the area very carefully. There was nothing behind
him. He shrugged it off, and went back to looking for the trophy. A few seconds
later, he heard a thud behind him. He whipped around, and saw M-VI-Nupperm staring
back at him.
"You again?!" Psychodogg asked.
"Yes, it's me. Now how do I get into the arena?" Nupperm asked in reply.
"I'm not going to tell you how to get into my arena!" Psychodogg shouted.
"All right. It looks as though I'll have to beat it out of you," Nupperm
answered. "You won't last more than a minute."
"You want to bet?" Psychodogg asked.
The fight started really fast, and as fast as the fight started, Nupperm was
on the cement ground.
"Wha--?! How? You are not stronger than me!" Nupperm shouted. He stood up,
and slashed at Psychodogg with his long, razor sharp claws. Psychodogg grabbed
Nupperm's claws after a few seconds, spun him around, and threw him into the
stone wall on the outside of the arena. Nupperm took to the air just before
Psychodogg could grab his head to crush it.
At MTL-Rider's base...
"That idiot!" MTL-Rider shouted as he slammed his fists down onto a control
panel.
"Master, what is it?" ZRA-Goliath asked.
"M-VI-Nupperm isn't following his orders!" MTL-Rider shouted.
"Master, calm down," Goliath said. "How about you just destroy M-VI-Nupperm
and send SF-Omega to do his job?"
"That's a great idea, Goliath. I'll do that. I'll send Omega up to the warhead
that the previous invaders left behind, and I'll have him drop it onto Neopia,"
MTL-Rider said, grinning evilly.
5:47 PM NST: Behind the Bloodsport Arena
M-VI-Nupperm was now losing to Psychodogg, and Nupperm was on the ground, defenceless.
"What are you going to do to me now, use your Solar Wind attack?" Nupperm asked.
"How did you know that that's one of my special attacks?" Psychodogg asked
in reply.
"I have my ways," Nupperm said, grinning arrogantly. "Now are you going to
destroy me or not?"
"Yeah, I probably will. But should I use Fang Sniper or Solar Wind?" Psychodogg
asked himself.
"Use the Solar Wind," Nupperm said, grinning again.
Psychodogg pointed one finger at the sun, and the the sky cleared of all clouds,
and the light from the sun got even brighter than it already was. Psychodogg
lowered his finger and pointed to Nupperm, then opened his fist. "Solar Wind!"
he shouted, throwing out a stream of electricity through the air, and straight
into Nupperm's mouth. Nupperm immediately exploded, and the force of it rocked
all of Neopia.
At MTL-Rider's base...
"That human is far more powerful than I'd ever imagined possible," MTL-Rider
said, amazed.
"Yes, master, Psychodogg is truly a force not to mess with," ZRA-Goliath said.
"Yes, he truly is. But rightly so, he is an extraordinary fighter, even for
a human!" MTL-Rider said, turning to face Goliath. "Now it's time to send SF-Omega
to do the dirty work," he said, walking down a steel hall that lead to
his rocket chamber. There, he found SF-Omega working on a prototype of the ATM-Bomb.
"Omega, we need you to go get to the warhead above this wretched planet and
make it active," MTL-Rider said.
"Yes, sir!" SF-Omega said, snapping to attention. "I'll get right on it,"
he said, walking down a catwalk that lead to the escape capsule. When Omega
got in, the capsule shot off of its land gear, and shot up toward the Phoenician
Warhead.
At the Bloodsport Tournament...
While Nupperm and Psychodogg had been fighting, the tournament kept going.
Anubis had defeated Magna, Shadow beat me, and Cushidra annihilated Anubis like
he did to Boomdogg with that fatal Dark Kanena. The championship match was about
to begin. It was Shadow versus Cushidra. The match went on for quite a while.
They were matching each other move for move. When Cushidra unleashed a Dark
Kanena, Shadow dodged it and unleashed his own Dark Kanena. The match was a
stalemate until Cushidra pulled out the Kanena Spear. The light moved too fast
for Shadow to dodge. When it hit Shadow, he was thrown against the stone ring
floor with a sickening thud.
Shadow was in the ring, unconscious. He was breathing heavily, as was Cushidra.
Cushidra went to end the match, and started to pick up Shadow to set him outside
the ring. When Cushidra had him over his shoulder, Shadow fought out of Cushidra's
grasp, and the fight was back on. Shadow went to use a Dark Kanena, but Cushidra
side-stepped it, slipped behind Shadow, kicked him in the spine, and sent him
flying out of the ring and into the grass outside.
8:00 PM NST: Yugo's NeoHome
"In other news, a mysterious rocket was deployed into the atmosphere at approximately
6:13 PM Neopian Standard Time. The mysterious rocket is said to be on a collision
course with a warhead orbiting the planet, capable of destroying half of Neopia
from its present location," the news reporter announced.
"Gee, I wonder whose warhead it is?" Yugo said sarcastically.
"I wish I could remember where we left our pod from the trip to Vela-Sei,"
I said, doing my absolute best to remember.
8:19 PM NST: Near the Phoenician Warhead
SF-Omega jumped out of his rocket onto a circular track that went around the
warhead.
"Well, I think this is the Phoenician Warhead the master was talking about,"
Omega said, trying to find the area that led to the control panel. A few seconds
later, a capsule shot up and over the side of the track and landed. The door
opened, and out stepped Shadow, ready to battle SF-Omega.
"All right, PSY-Borg, whatever you plan to do up here, it won't work,"
Shadow said, approaching Omega.
"My name is SF-Omega. Do you even know what's going on?" He asked Shadow.
"No, but whatever you're going to do, I'm going to stop you here and now,"
Shadow answered.
"Well you'd better be ready for the toughest fight of your life, because I
can tell you this, I'm not just another PSY-Borg," Omega said, darting
away from Shadow.
"Oh no you don't!" Shadow shouted, taking off in the same direction. Shadow
immediately began to gain on Omega, and he was caught up within a matter of
seconds. Shadow jumped into the air, started flying, and kept near Omega's head.
He spun around in a quick, fluid motion, and hit Omega right in the face. Omega
dropped to the ground and slid across the track.
To be continued...
Next time on Doomsday Rider V, SF-Omega is defeated by Shadow, ZRA-Goliath
locks horns with Anubis, Boomdogg and Shadow, while MTL-Rider and Doomsday_Rider
face off. But now, the Serpent Dragon is extremely close to Neopia! |
