DeathMatch: Tournament of Blood

[Arrant]

"If you insist Spike...Make sure Kitt doesn't get himself into trouble, I'm off to Kain's office to take care of something. Maybe I can do a little work on the way?" Arrant started running down the halls back to Kain's office.

[KittKat chunky~]

Kitt lifted the exo-suits visor, taking a swig from his hip-flask... "well Spike... seems you got yerself the easy job... or the hard job, depending on how you look at it..."

[Armalite_]

Spike rolled his eyes at Kitt. "It WILL be the easy job, Kitt." Spike said as they continued to walk towards the cell block.

[KittKat chunky~]

"nah, you know me man... trouble is mah middle name......" he paused, taking another swig... "well actually it isnt but thats beside the point..

[Arrant]

Arrant arrives yet again at Kain's office and knocks on the door. Not getting a response, he leans up to the door and listens for sign of life, when he hears Mr. Yellow talking to Kain.

[Armalite_]

Spike looked up and down the exoskeleton. "Jeez, I might look into getting one of those things myself." He said. "And you're not getting into any trouble if I'm looking out for you. We can use my cell to hang out in. They put me in solitary since I almost killed my guard with a spork. They're too afraid to look into the cell now. It's just down the hall."

[KittKat chunky~]

"with a spork? now thats style..." he sniggered, taking another swig and offering the pear brandy to Spike... "well i suppose if your watchin' over me... nothing could happen"

[Gabag]

Arrant arrives yet again at Kain's office and knocks on the door. Not getting a response, he leans up to the door and listens for sign of life, when he hears Mr. Yellow talking to Kain.

"Well Mr. Yellow, everything's going down the drain now, we have 3 fugitives on the loose now, possible murderers as well, a few contestants gone rouge, and a lawsuit down our alley..." Kain said, nodding towards the shadow outside his door, he knew someone was snooping in, but who it was he didn't know, for now he would just sound like a concerned CEO.

[Shenzii]

Blaire woke up and looked around. Everything that had happened a couple hours earlier was a blur. She rubbed her eyes and sighed. "I wonder what chrono is up to.." she said to herself as she sat up.

[Entaru]

"I'm sorry to hear that, Mr. Kain."  Y recognizes the gesture to play along.

"If I can be of any service I would be glad to help.  Those men created me after all, and the fact that they were murdered so brutally.  They might as well have killed my family.  My functions include forensic investigation.  I would be glad to investigate for the Arena and find the killer and his or her associates."  Y stated in a sympathetic tone.

He was hinting at a way to keep people like the one at the door from snooping about.  He would be the one to investigate his murders and come up with a corporate hit.  One of the Arena's corporate rivals.  Which one would be decided later.

[Gabag]

"Now that brings up the problem of the contestants who have violently fought against the security" Kain admitted, which was true. Kitt and Arrant had killed guards, a criminal offense by the standards of the DeathMatch arena. Those guards would most likely be rescued from death, but they will cry out for blood.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

The usual sounds of a blacksmith are heard outside Chrono's room as he continues to modify the "armor" he started with. Shadow-dragon forged armor... lighter than kevlar, and more resistant than titanium plating or adimantium chainmail. Praise the flame I managed to at least remember the old forging tradition of my... Ancestor's Ancestor? I don't know, but this is probably past par to the champion's armor; he'll probably be either jealous or furious when our next match comes up and we're stronger. I don't remember rules saying I can't use my powers to enhance my attacks, or even modifing my armor to make full use of my talents. just watch, Kaine is going to throw in a rule right after the match...

Chrono grinned as his armor began to change from a safety precausion to a gladiator's tool for glory and valor...

[Arrant]

Arrant looked around the halls warily. Are there cameras placed around all of the halls? he wondered. He leaned against a nearby wall to appear casual and continued listening to the conversation.

[Entaru]

"Yes, that does pose a problem.  Pehaps if they had kept their calm they wouldn't be involved.  No offense to you Mr. Kain but organics can be so fragile minded in the midst of a panic.  A man screams 'fire' and everyone turns into animals, killing eachother just to get away."  Y held in laughter.  

That is what he had counted on when he started the riot.  The fact that Blaire and Kitt fought back just made everything so much more delicious.  Now they were not only wanted as suspects in the murders, but they had killed guards in order to get away.  Their obvious innocence could have saved them if they hadn't fought back.  Now that innocence had all but disappeared as they killed to avoid capture.  

As much as Y hated organics, he loved how easily they were manipulated against one another.

"Perhaps punishment in the Arena would be sufficient.  When captured, they will be restrained and tortured in front of the masses for their crimes.  After all, the Arena's audience are in it for the violence.  Some showmanship and creative torture could bring in, as you organics say, 'Booku-ratings'."  Y stated, with sadistic joy dripping from every word, also hinting at himself for the torturer.  "Those offended by the suspects will be happy and the Arena will be sitting in mounds of cash."

[Gabag]

"I can't deny the amount of money it;ll bring in, but torture man? It's one thing for people to volunteer to kill other people, but torture is out of the question, our corporate opponents will quickly slam a lawsuit on us and shut this place down."

And yes Arrant is correct, there were cameras everywhere, after all it pays to be paranoid.
