Ch 43: The Tournament pt.1

In the Amity Colosseum flying in the sky.

"Hey, Sapphire. How would you like to be a commentator with me and Port?" Oobleck asks Kyra as he passes by her in the hallway of the colosseum.

"I would love too." Kyra says when a smile.

"Just know I am registered for the 1v1 fights so there is a chance I won't be there to commentate my own match." Kyra says following Oobleck

"That's fine we would love to have your insight in the matches is all." Oobleck says leading the way. Knowing that her combat proficiency is greater than Glynda Goodwitch based on her instincts.

=================

In the commentator box

"Hello! And Welcome to the Vytal Festival Tournament!" Port says

"Before we select the teams for the first 4v4 team battle I would like to introduce my fellow commentator and a guest aswell." Port says

"We have Professor Oobleck." Port says

"Doctor." Oobleck corrects

"And one of my students however don't let that fool you. She is one of the greatest minds in the last century, Sapphire Stark." Port says introducing Kyra who has her tail out for the world to see.

"Thank you for the introduction professor." Kyra says politely.

"As you may have heard I am the president and head of the Technology department at Stark Industries." Kyra says

"Well I think it's time we have the teams selected." Oobleck says

The board begins rolling.

It stops at team CFVY and the other one ends at team GEMS.

'I don't remember them from cannon.' Kyra thinks but knows this world isn't exactly cannon.

"We have team coffee from Beacon and team gems from Atlas." Port says

The teams walk out.

"Oh this already interesting in the team balance." Kyra says

"What do you mean?" Oobleck asks

"Well looking at gems, you have their leader he doesn't seem to physically strong meaning he uses his brain, He's probably the strategist so I wouldn't be surprised if he is able to mold a battlefield like putty in his hand. Then there is Euclase looking at the exo skeleton she is wearing she's probably the mechanic of the team but the way she walks also screams martial artist. Then Malachite he looks like a mix between as a scout and an assassin so he probably leaves he back open however you don't usually count on being hit in the back when the enemy can't see you. And finally there is Sphene, she seems to be a person skilled in long range combat. That team is literally the perfect team you want for field missions." Kyra says

"You can tell all of that just by looking at them?" Port asks shocked

"Yeah, team coffee is more of a combat oriented team. With Velvet being a perfect all rounder, Coco being the heavy gunner yet can handle herself in close fights. Fox is a specialist in close combat and Yatsuhashi seems to be the teams tank or damage taker with his stamina and strength." Kyra says

"Any idea on who could win?" Oobleck asks

"I would say we should select the stadium before I go choosing because Coffee would have an advantage on a more open field and Gems would on a field with less viability a place to set traps, snipe from tree tops, and sneak around." Kyra says

"Yes let us select the Stage!" Port says as it beings rolling.

On the Coffee side they got the ice stage, on the Gems side they got the mountain stage.

================

"She could tell all of that from a glance." Mercury says in shock.

"Doesn't matter she cant take down an army, when it comes to brains and plans they can be overpowered by sheer brute force." Cinder says not to worried about Kyra.

====================

"Let is break down the rules while the teams are getting ready to fight." Port says

"The tournament is divided into three distinctive rounds. Teams, doubles, and Singles for the singles there was two extra spots that were taken from the 5th person on a five person team. Age and school year are irrelevant. In this tournament the only attribute being tested is skill." Oobleck says

'So there was another 5 person team.' Kyra thinks to herself.

"With that let's get this started." Kyra says as the starting cannon fires.

'Hunger games?'Kyra thinks hearing the cannon.
