Inner Core (Book 2) (Completed)

Chapter 21 *Portaru Shows His Moves*

Dai: "You're coming up Kazu. I think you're the next battle. They just had to clean up a little more blood."

Kazu: "Yeah, that poor Monkey. Luckily he's alive. He lost so much blood."

Selene: "Apparently the healer really helped him out. She gave him more blood."

Kazu: "Wow, that's a really strong healing core."

Mr. Clone: "Haha, good thing I found her. Plus she's hilarious. Have you heard her angel joke?"

Kazu; "Yes, Toshi, and I don't think it's a joke."

Mr. Clone: "Hahahahahhahah, oh god Kazu. I didn't know you were that funny."

Kazu: "I'm serious, Toshi."

Mr. Clone: "Hahahahahaha, oh please no more, my stomach hurts. I'm going outside before I pee myself."

(Mr. Clone left laughing way too hard. Then they heard Kai.)

Kai: "Next is Octopi vs. Portaru."

Kazu: "Oh, that's me. See you guys later."

Selene: "Good luck."

Kazu: "Thanks."

(Kazu ran out there while he explained Octopi's cores. He was a pretty tall guy, around 6'5'. He had long orange hair down to his shoulders, all in braids. He also had bright green eyes.)

Kai: "Octopi's core tentacle, he has tentacles on his back, well isn't that fun. Then Portaru, the reason half of you came to this thing. Everyone knows his core so I'm not gonna explain it."

Man: "I don't!"

Kai: "Shut up! Let's go!"

(As soon as Kai said that the battle started. Octopi used one of his tentacles right at Kazu. Kazu put a portal up and the tentacle went right through. It came out in front of Octopi's face and suctioned on his forehead. He couldn't get it off.)

Octopi: "Oh damn it."

Kazu: "You can regrow these, right?"

Octopi: "Yeah."

(Kazu closed his portal cutting off the tentacle, but he didn't know Octopi was still talking.)

Octopi: "It's just very painful if they get cut off-AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Kazu: "Oh, sorry."

(Octopi ran off the arena and out of the whole stadium. He was long gone.)

Kai: "Uh, Portaru wins. I guess."

(The crowd cheered, but Portaru was still a little weirded out.)

Kai: "Well clean up the blood, again. Then we'll move on."

(Kazu walked off back to the room. As soon as he walked in his team cheered for him, except for Reo, who was still napping in his chair. Kazu decided to get him more Ready for his fight.)

Kazu: "Hey Reo, how are you feeling about your fight?"

Reo: "Huh, piss off Kazu. I'm getting my rest."

Kazu: "Well you're next, so you might wanna get ready. You don't wanna be half asleep during your fight."

Reo; "I'd still win. I'll just be making the other person think he has a chance, but then I'll whoop him in the end."

Kazu: "Hmm, you seem to have it planned out. Well if you say so. "

(Kazu didn't like Reo being too lazy at times, but he seemed to have it planned out. Kazu should know by now that Reo knows what he can do. He is very strong, so he will probably win. Kazu thought this, until his opponent walked in. A man with blond spiky hair and red eyes walked in. He was wearing the sweats, but not the tanktop. He was very in good shape.)
