Chapter 6: Fruitition
Ayin
stared obsessively at the scepter in his shell's hands. The
red glow had spread, and now covered three quarters of the
staff. My, gods and demons can prove useful, can't they? It
is due to their efforts that the process is almost complete.
Soon... soon, Saryn, I shall be by your side once more...
Ayin looked up as Keir walked into the room.
"Well,
Ayin, it's time for the final round. Are we still going with
the original plan?" Keir inquired.
"Yes, Keir... I
trust that you have prepared the phase discs?"
Keir
reached into the folds of Volnes' robes and pulled out nine
metallic discs, each one about the size of a pocket watch.
"Got them all ready, Ayin, although... I don't understand why
you don't want the rest of them fighting. Wouldn't we get the
energy faster if they all fought?"
"Yes, but I need
purer energy for the final part. This energy that we've
gathered so far will sustain the portal, but to open it, we
need a lot more of THIS energy." Ayin pulled open the scepter,
showing a small hidden part with blue energy. "This is not
just the power of fighting, but the power of pure hearts. This
is the power that true heroes exude. We need this pure energy
to open the portal."
"I see. Well, then, I'm going to
go prepare the stadium. Should I bother activated the sphere
of water?"
"Yes, it will be interesting to see if
anyone uses it in their strategy."
Ayin watched as
Keir left, and then looked out the window at the massive arena
below. "So, the final battle shall be fought here..." He
paused for moment, wondering if he was thinking about the
tournament... or the battle between Keir and himself, and
realized that it didn't matter.

Round
6: The nine semi-finalists stand in front of Mian and
Volnes, in the arena near the bottom of the stadium. Above
their heads, a giant sphere of water hangs in mid-air,
suspended by seemingly nothing. The sidekicks and the fallen
sit behind the two hosts in the stands. Welcome to a generic
Blitzball stadium.
Mian stepped forward and spoke.
"Welcome, competitors. You nine have stood above your comrades
in battle, and thus, you shall participate in the final
round." Volnes moved towards the competitors, holding nine
shining discs. "My companion is now giving each of you phase
discs. While you have the discs, you will only suffer damage
from another person holding a disc. Thus..." Mian turned and
faced the spectators behind him. "You probably shouldn't try
attacking them. You won't be able to hurt them, but they'll
still do a number on you."
Mian faced the competitors
once again. "You can roam anywhere in the stadium that you
please, but don't try leaving; there's nothing outside the
exit doors, and it's a long fall to the energy barrier." A
puzzled look crosses Mian's face. "Also, I have a strange
impulse to tell you that there are no 'FFX spoilers' here, so
don't worry." She shook her head. "Odd. Anyway, we shall be
watching you closely from here on out, and we expect some
truly spectacular fights. Don't disappoint us."
Special Rules for Round 6:
-
Semi-Finalists, you are now at a point where you must plan
every attack very carefully. Make one wrong move, and it could
be lights out for you. Thus, all Semi-Finalists must vote
PUBLICLY, and their votes must be accompanied with a
description of the attack (or healing, in the case of
R-Votes).
- Sidekicks and Fallen, the phase discs
will foil any of your attempts to attack the Semi-Finalists.
You may still continue your various stories, but you must
make your votes in PRIVATE, by e-mailing be at akrizak@home.com.
- Round 6 will end at 11:59 PM MDT, on
Saturday.
