Fonimu's Game

The dragon gets up from his chair and grabs Zemeki by the shoulders. "I'm going to need you to participate in this tournament Zemeki" Enway walks out "Psht" "Since you've been exiled you can form a different team, tipping the odds in our favor" Hob's eyes light up "Of course, now this is what I call striking with advantage". Strike with advantage is the Wild Claw moto. The dragons turns to give Hob's a smug thumbs up.

Keem, Joey and Ramui are roaming about when Ramui's stomach growls. Keem hands him some bread. "Naw, lets go to that food vendor" says Ramui. "Do you have any money?" he asks. Ramui disappears and reappears with money "Yes" he responds "Although I can't help but feel as if we've forgotten about something"

An goes over to Aisha "Hey..." Aisha continues working on a tool "Hey..." "What?" "Hey... what are you doing" Aisha throws a bouncy ball out of the shack and An begins chasing it. In a puff of smoke A'Duela appears in front of An picking up the ball. The ball jumps out of her hand and rolls to the side. An continues to chase after it as A'Duela enters the shack and kneels holding a rolled up scroll and unravels it. "A formal request to join the fighting tournament next week"

Ramui, Keem and Joey roll up to the vendor and the humans sit down. Joey veers of to the side near a grill. "Hey, baby want to change each others oils?" he asks to no response. The humans begin to order. "Tibs" says Ramui. "I think I'll have the curry and tea" mentions Keem. A stylishly dressed Zein-Spawn sits down next to them "Onmi's PB and J with extra Java Chip" "Coming right up" says the vendor. "Don't forget the tea" reminds Keem. "Hey, wassup" says the well dressed individual. His voice is extremely soothing and buttery smooth. "You here for the fighting tournament?" he asks. "Fighting tournament?" asks Ramui with his mouth full. "Yes, do you not know of it?" the dude asks in return. Ramui shakes his head.

"So, your saying I need to form a team of 5 to compete?" asks Zemeki. "If you want your honor restored yes" dragon responds "Maybe those people you came with would like to compete" suggests dragon "That's already a team of like 4" "I'm pretty sure Aisha told me that Joey can't use abilities on his own" Zemeki replies "Other than moving" "I guess your right, he would get destroyed without an ability"

Since Zemeki's honor is on the line "I'll join his team in the tournament" spoke Aisha. I don't know what happened but I know Zemeki would never attempt to harm anyone Aisha contemplated. "I'm a bit rusty so I'm gonna be needing some practice" Aisha told A'Duela as she opened a drawer and grabbing a Kunai. As A'Duela is ready to leave An still chasing the ball runs into them teleporting with them to Dragons Keep.

"That sounds cool, we should totally go" says Ramui after the Zein Spawn told him some details. "You can go ahead" replies Keem sipping his tea "but count me out, I'm not interested in blood sports" "Maybe you could join my team?" Ramui asks the stranger. "Naw, no, no, I can't participate either" he replies. "I'm the one hosting the event after all" "So it is all being set up by you" inquires Keem. "Right you are" he replies. "So you must be loaded" states Ramui. "No no the funding came from an anonymous source in Arcada" "Interesting" replied Keem. "If it was any other power it would be sus" thinks Keem "But Arcada does shit like this all the time, I guess all the power and advancements they had compared to everywhere else makes it so they don't have the same worries as everywhere else"

Zemeki is dismissed to go assemble his team, he looks about to try to find Keem and Ramui. Eventually he arrives at the vender his crew is chowing down at and see's a group approaching, it consists of Hobs, Enway, the Blue Dragon, Gheth (she attended the same ninja practice that Zemeki did) and one more person Zemeki doesn't recognize but can tell is really young. "Is that one of the other groups?" asks Ramui. "Definitely" Zemeki responded "Do you want to join my team?" "Yes!" said Ramui. "No" said Keem. Enway glares at the group as he walks by while Hobs is reading a pamphlet while drinking some joe. The Blue Dragon hands a pamphlet to Zemeki "Your gonna need this" The pamphlet details the rules of the tournament, how it's to the death but Fonimu will use an ability called respawn to revive anyone after the fact, he will also be announcing the whole thing.

After finishing their meals they split ways leaving Zemeki and Ramui still looking for the other 3 members. A'Duela, An and Aisha teleport into the allyway Joey Wheeler is in. Aisha looks around "I thought you were going to teleport us to Zemeki" "This one" A'Duela responded pointing at An "Must have off set the calibrations some how, sorry for the inconvenience but your on your own, bye". Aisha taps Joey Wheeler "Wa, what It isn't what it looks like" Aisha becomes confused "Do you dream?" she asks. "I never dreamed before in my life" he responds. "Anyways can you take me to Zemeki?" she asks.
