International War Tour

MATCH 1-MONGOLIA VS. JAPAN

Location-Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, July 7, 2018, 10:38 AM

Ganjin Gerel, (Patronymic "Ganjin," Given Name "Gerel,") a humble young soldier, had recently completed her training. A fighting tournament had opened up all the way in Univa, inviting warriors to represent their homelands from all over the world, and she was selected to represent Mongolia. Armed with her trusty glaive and steel lamellar, she was to depart this evening to register for the very first match. She was currently at Chinggis Khaan International Airport, ready to depart for Reddisburg, Univa.

She rushed through the crowd, each time she hit someone she yelled "Өршөөгөөрэй! (Excuse me!)" until she finally got to her flight, just in time.

She took a seat and sighed in relief. The flight attendant said "суудлын бүсээ бэхэлж өгнө үү, бид univa-гийн reddisburg руу зогсолтгүй нислэг хийж байна," and the plane took off.

It was a while, and she wanted to fall asleep, but she couldn't. She had a tournament to win.

When the plane finally arrived at Reddisburg, she rushed out towards the square, where she saw a booth, reading "Retrieve sent weapons here" in the language of every representative selected, totaling 20. Obviously, she had to send them, because you can't bring a glaive on a plane. She went to retrieve said glaive, and then rushed into the preparation area.

Location-Tokyo, Japan, July 7, 2018, 10:38 AM.

Someone whose real name was unknown but went by "Senshi" for his skill as a warrior, was making his way towards Haneda Airport. He had been chosen to represent Japan in an international tournament of warriors, and he really, really wanted to win. He had finished training, in which he had stripped the dojo of training dummies, having sliced through them all.

As he walked towards his flight, no one talked. No one said a thing at all. They were too scared to get in his way, and so they just moved aside as he walked through them. When he finally arrived at his flight, he took a seat next to someone who absolutely refused to look at him for fear of him considering it disrespect.

"次の停留所、レディスバーグ、ユニバ." And then there was takeoff.

When Senshi arrived, he instantly retrieved his Katana from the booth, and headed towards the preparation area.

5 hours later...

The 2 sides were finally done prepping, and headed for the arena, where they would be announced.

The voice of King Gimpy of Univa, the announcer, was heard throughout the arena "And for our first match, we have a conflict of the ages! Japan may have beaten Mongolia in the war, but now there's no typhoon to stop them! GEREL, THE BRAVEHEARTED SOLDIER OF MONGOLIA! VS! SENSHI, THE MODERN SAMURAI OF JAPAN!

The 2 fighters walked into the arena, and each sang their national anthem.

Mongolia's was up first. It's majestic, patriotic melody echoed throughout the arena.

AROUND 2 MINUTES LATER

"Жавхлант манай орон мандтугай!!"

Everyone cheered, despite a lot of them not speaking Mongolian.

Next up was Japan's National Anthem, Kimigayo. The imperial melody was calming and short compared to Mongolia's patriotic intensity.

"さざれ石の
いわおとなりて
こけのむすまで." and the crowd went wild, despite a lot of them not speaking Japanese either.

Next up was the actual fight. Gimpy counted down from 3 to 0, and the fight began.

Gerel charged in quick and strong, swinging her glaive in a diagonal motion, but Senshi parried the hit with his Katana, next, he struck, but the slice couldn't get through Gerel's tough lamellar. Gerel then continued slicing, but the parries and counters kept on coming.

Senshi finally pierced Gerel's armor, causing a cut on her abdomen, but that didn't stop her. She retaliated by stabbing with her glaive, which caught Senshi off guard, piercing his armor and making a stab wound on his stomach. Senshi grasped his stomach in pain, as Gerel backed up, and then continued fighting, slicing at Gerel, who managed to dodge most of the attacks, before being caught with a cut to the leg. Gerel charged back into the fight with her glaive, managing to stab Senshi in the chest. Senshi somehow still continued fighting.

Senshi sliced with his katana at Gerel, hitting the Mongol in the stomach, causing her to yelp in pain. Senshi continued to slice, but she still kept on fighting. She would never give up.

Finally, Gerel backed up and performed a feigned retreat, and as Senshi chased her down and sliced at her, with no attack hitting, she backed up one last time and charged forth with a mighty war cry, stabbing Senshi through the neck with her glaive, killing him.

As Senshi's body hit the ground, his head and helmet fell off. No one wanted to see what his face looked like without the helmet, so Gerel walked past it to the center of the arena.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a VICTORY FOR MONGOLIA!!!" Yelled Gimpy, as Gerel followed up with a mighty roar of "Монгол Улс!!!!!!"

"And for all you Japan Fans out there, don't worry, Senshi will be revived and sent to fight the next person who loses in the Losers Bracket!! Next week on INTERNATIONAL WAR TOUR!!!!"

The crowd, especially those rooting for Mongolia, went absolutely wild, and Gerel, exhausted, limped back all the way to the airport to go back home.

NEXT UP!

Ganjin Gerel of Mongolia vs. Milo Schmidt of Germany!!!
