Hicks flys to the outer most wall and sees an arena
(Argent)
"Its very convenient that they put the arena on the outermost wall, that way even poor people can watch, well they would have to pay for a ticket of course"
(Hicks)
"Yes well, that doesn't matter to me. I really want to kick some a**"
(Argent)
"Be wary you don't know the strength of the fighters"
Hicks lands at the entrance of a large stadium where people are all lined up. He sees a sign that reads "Fighters push through the crowd and force your way to the front" Hicks pushes through the line of people where he meets three people receiving money from people and handing them entry passes.
(Hicks)
"I'm a fighter, let me in"
(Man)
"Yes please hand me your finger first please, we need to confirm you are of Royal blood"
Hicks sticks out his index finger and the man stabs him with a small needle. He takes the blood on the needle and hands it over to an elderly man behind him. The elderly man puts his hand over the bloody needle and then tosses it aside
(Elderly Man)
"He is of Royal blood, let him through"
The man signals Hicks to move to the side. Hicks walks towards the fighting area and stands on a large tiled platform, he sees other people there as well
(Hicks)
"They must be my cousins, I don't know them but if they are on the fighting area they must be"
(Ging)
"Sure are, I'm surprised you're here so early"
Hicks turns around and Ging approaches him.
(Hicks)
"I'm surprised I wasn't first"
(Ging)
"Hehe well, you aren't the only one that wanted to fight. Let's head to the bill board and see who we will be fighting"
Hicks and Ging approach a large billboard surrounded by people a few years older than Hicks.
The billboard has a bracket of people showing who will be fighting who.
(Ging)
"Wow so many people are here already, even though it's early morning!"
(Hicks)
"Yeah well, maybe they will come up with a plan"
(Random Voice within the crowd)
"Aw man I'm up against Ging the lightning loser?!?!"
(Hicks)
"Pft lightning loser"
(Ging)
"Just shut up"
A rather large young man comes out of the crowd. He isn't large as in muscular but he is chubby and fat. He has long black hair that makes him look like a hobo wearing royal clothes
(Ging)
"Hey fatso! Did you just call me a loser?!?"
(Fatso)
"Who are you calling fatso loser Ging? Your lightning techniques won't do anything against me! I'm Zhifang the earth royal"
(Ging)
*His name means fat in Chinese*
"Oh yeah, we'll see about that"
Fatso walks away and Hicks goes to the billboard when he sees a small clearing in the crowd. He slowly makes his way to the billboard getting elbowed in the gut occasionally.
(Hicks)
*Grr I'm really about to light these bastards on fire"
Hicks finally makes his way to the billboard and starts looking for his name
(Hicks)
"Ah there, fight 5! I'm up against... HOLY SH*T!!!"
Hicks goes back to Ging where Ging is just there picking at his hair
(Ging)
"Oh you're back, so who you gonna fight?"
Hicks whispers into Ging's ear
(Ging)
"Haha that's very funny"
Hicks looks at Ging seriously
"Oh crap... welp see you in the next life"
Ging quickly walks away leaving Hicks standing there alone
(Argent)
"So whats the big deal?"
(Hicks)
*I'm gonna die that's what*
(Argent)
"Hold on let me take a look at your memories and see what the big deal about that person is... HAHAHA WELL ITS BEEN NICE KNOWING YOU HAHAHAHA"
(Hicks)
*SERIOUSLY IS THAT WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY!!! NO 'ITS OKAY YOU CAN MAKE IT OUT OF THIS'!!*
(Argent)
"Haha come on man, I won't let you die you just need to train hard so you won't get killed"
(Hicks)
"Are you dumb? The fights are gonna start soon and who knows how long each fight is gonna last, I'M THE FIFTH FIGHT!! There's only gonna be 4 fights before me!"
(Argent)
"Hey man, simply meditating goes a long way. Just trust me. Goes sit in a corner and meditate"
(Hicks)
"Well I should at least go watch Ging's fight, he is the first fight after all, I'll meditate first"
Suddenly Hicks hears a bell ring
(Loud Voice from Announcer)
"Alright, since all fighters have checked in early, the first fight will begin momentarily"
(Hicks)
"You've got to be kidding me"
(Announcer)
"Alright ladies and gentlemen the first battle will be between the lightning Prince Ging and the self proclaimed Earth Royal Zhifang"
The fatso waddles onto the fighting platform. Ging coolly walks onto the large fighting area and a crowd of girls cry at him from the seating area
(Group of Girls)
"Ging! Ging! He's our man, if he can't do it no one can!"
Ging looks at the group of girls and smiles. The girls all collapse and one falls and hits her head
(Announcer)
"Alrighty ladies and gents! This tournament will be much more interesting, the new generation is far stronger than its predecessors! The fighting platform is much larger so let's hope the fights last longer as well!"
A man that seems to be the referee walks in front of both Ging and Zhifang.
(Referee)
"Alright, you know the rules, knock each other out or fight until the other is no longer able to! And killing the opponent is acceptable!"
The crowd cheers incredibly loud
(People in the crowd)
"Yeah kill each other!"
"Slam his head onto the floor Zhifang!"
"Fry him up Ging!"
The referee quickly run off the platform
(Referee)
"Alright ready! 3!..."
(Zhifang)
"Just letting you know, I'm not just going to knock you out, I'm going to kill you and feed you to my pets!"
(Referee)
"2!!!...."
(Zhifang)
"Then I'll retrieve the left over pieces and sprinkle them all over the street HEHEHE HAHAHAHA"
(Referee)
"1!!!... FIGHT!!!!"
Zhifang charges at Ging ferociously, running at him on all fours surprisingly quick for his size
(Zhifang)
"DIEEEE!!!!"
(Ging)
"Hm"
Zhifang jumps into the air as if he is to pounce on Ging
(Zhifang)
"DIEEE!!! MY EARTH SKILLS ARE NOT NEEDED FOR TRASH LIKE YOU"
Ging snaps with his right hand and a huge thunderbolt comes out of nowhere. The huge yellow lightning bolt strikes Fatso making fatso come crashing into the platform ground.
(Zhifang)
"You think some static electricity would work on me?"
Zhifang gets up while he is still getting struck by the never ending lighting. But Ging just snaps again and hundreds of lightning bolts strike Fatso
(Zhifang)
"AAAAAAAH!!!!! SSSSSTAAAAAHHHP!!!!! PLEAAASE!!! MERCY I SURRENDER!!!!"
(Announcer)
"Haha sorry kid but there is no surrendering in the Family challenge"
The lightning strikes finally stop coming and all that's left of Zhifang is a bloody, chunky pool of blood
(Ging)
*Though it looked effortless, I'm all tired out. Had to make my debut look huge, make people fear me in hopes they will just jump off the stage*
(Hicks)
*He's tired out, at least the next time he will need to fight is tomorrow*
(Argent)
"How did you know he was tired?"
(Hicks)
*It was the way he was walking... off the platform, he usually always stands up straight but his back is very slightly slouched*
"Well now's not the time to dote, I need to meditate. I might not be ready for my fight"
