" This is as far as I dare go, the law enforcement might come for me if they find out I'm here..." Odysseus sighed, leaving the group and walking back to the safety of his home.

Seth and Hottan had signed up for the tournament, and were then directed into the waiting room, which was full of...interesting people, all of them having a unique look to themselves....

" We have some good contenders here, this might just be the best tournament the world has ever seen..." Romi smiled, gripping the railings of the stands tightly as he gazed upon the desert field.

" Why do you keep Eurayle around anyways? It's not like she's strong or anything..." Fumi said, walking in on Romi's monologue.

" She lost her sisters to a man named Theseus, she doesn't have a family anymore...I know this sounds stupid...but I want to be there for her, because I know deep down I wish someone was there for me when my family perished..." Romi sighed, which dimmed the mood a bit.

" Well I have good news, one of my subordinates is fighting off an intruder, I can display it in front of you before the games begin " Fumi suggested, smiling.

" Please, today has been stressful enough with the amount of planning it took to annex the Garden, I need as much relaxation as I can get..." Romi replied, smiling back at Fumi.

A smoke had appeared in front of them, and it showed  to figures fighting one another. Robin, the servant of Telence and Gechi, the soldier of Fumi. " You Thought any of you could kill me....I'm immortal! " Robin shouted, delivering a blow to Gechi's shield as he continued to assault her with a barrage of attacks.

" Just die already! " He shouted, continuing to slash and slash the shield, to little effect.

Gechi suddenly moved her shield upwards and delivered a swift kick to Robin's gut, causing him to be sent crashing through several buildings until the boy somehow ended up in a bar. " Don't worry citizens..the situation is under control.." Gechi stated as she walked towards the damaged bar.

" Immortal my ass..." She muttered, whipping out a gold chain from her belt and wrapping him around it, making sure it was as tight as possible.

" It seems I came in too late, forgive me sir " Fumi sighed, as the smoke disappeared from the two.

" It's Fine, I enjoy seeing my men succeed in battle, it's one of the many things I can enjoy here, watching the people I care for jump through the hurdles of life..." Romi stated, leaning on the railing with a smile on his face....

Eurayle stood behind the bleachers and gazed upon the warrior that stood in front of her. " Zia, I want you to kill Hottan for me, he cannot be allowed to win this tournament at all costs, do you understand? " The Gorgon asked, raising an eyebrow.

" Eh...I might on one condition " Zia said, grinning.

" What is it now, Zia? " Eurayle groaned in annoyance.

" I haven't had any test subjects for a while, and I've heard rumors that boy is part dragon...so I want to have custody of his corpse...for the advancement of science of coarse! Hey that rhymes! " Zia chirped, resting his body on a nearby pillar.

" Permission granted, it's not like anyone outside this island will know about him dying anyways..." Eurayle sighed, walking away from the assassin and departing to the bleachers.
