The Softshine Saga:Claudia The Ambitious(Canceled Until Further Notice)

Arc 1.2

        Blade Against Blade!
Soul vs. Kion
Part:1

"On the left side of the Battlegrounds,"

Says the portly Proprietor of the High Power Tourney in a voice filled with excitement and grandiosity.

"Standin' in with the height of 5 foot,8inches  weight of 135 pounds, and Power Status of Low Gamma, I give you the Prodigy of the Jr. Hero Guild- Kion "the Red Tanooki" Lieflan!"

The young man rested his Ultra Blade on his slightly bulky shoulder and soaked in the applause as the Holographic Projection screen  changed once again to unveil his full Profile Picture as well as his Stats.These Stats, typed in a neat, vertical fashion, included his age, weight, height, Special Skill, and Power Status.

"Aaaaand on the right side,"

Mr. Greymeyer continues,

"Standin' at 4 foot, 6 inches, 99 pounds and with the Power of High Gamma, I give you the First Monster to ever enter into the Battlegrounds;
Soul "the Monstrous Cherub" Craftsman!"

Much of the crowd let their approval be known, but unlike Kion, some of the people in the Audience Stand seems to either look at the puny, harmless-looking winged Creature with confusion, silent curiosity, or encompassing fear.
Soul did not enjoy the attention nearly as much as the Red Tanooki does, but they nevertheless bowed to all the sides in respect and gratitude.
The Projection performed the same task it have performed before- revealing Soul's Profile and their Stats.
However, it was placed on the right side of the screen as opposed to the left that Kion's Image and Stats.

"Now that's introductions are outta the way,"

the Proprietor states, his great yellow-brown moustache rising up high in his anticipation.

"Let the First Preliminary Match...BEGIN!"

Soul bowed their head in a courteous display of respect.
However, the eager Red Tanooki used this as an opportunity for an early attack and he leaped high in the air despite the bulk of his great weapon.

"Talk about getting to the point!"

Mr.Greymeyer remarked
as he began to sit in his brilliant, throne-like armchair.

"The Red Tanooki all ready comin' out gun blazin' with a classic Leaping Slash!"

"No!"

Kion objected, his eyes blazing hot pink, his ivory-colored Blade now brought over his head.

"This is an ULTRA LEAPING SLASH!"

The Ultra Blade was swung in a manner more akin to a sledgehammer than a sword, but it was nevertheless blocked by Soul simply raising their Energy Blade over their head in a defensive position.
The impact of the attack left the Monster's tough bare feet to be rooted in the ground, but otherwise Soul was not harmed at all from Kion's "Ultra Slash".

Mr. Greymeyer remained quiet for a few seconds before musing lightheartedly,

" 'Ultra Slash,' huh?
It doesn't seem very 'Ultra' to me,folks."
