The scene opens up with Dark and Dark SSJ4, inside of their room on deciding who wants to enter the final round.
Dark: Okay, so... (claps his hands) Do you agree if I enters the finals?
Dark SSJ4: You could if you want to. In the end, it would still be us to win the fight.
Dark: You're right, but... don't you want to enters the finals?
Dark SSJ4: Hm, that's a great idea. Oh well, rock paper scissors it is.
Dark: (sighs) Fine.
The two of them both decided to play "Rock, Paper, Scissors!" to decide who will enters the finals round. As they've counted three times and throws their hand out, the winner turns out to be Dark SSJ4 after he beats Dark's paper with scissors.
Dark SSJ4: Ah, gee. It looks like I have to step up on the plate, huh?
Dark: (pats his back) Yes, you do.
With the sound of a rapid heartbeat, the scene cuts to a smirking Cinderas she sits in one of the Amity Colosseum's seats along with the rest of the cheering crowd, their screams being drowned out by the announcements.
Port: (over the broadcasting system) Now, for the moment you've all been waiting for! The one-on-one finals!
In the center of the battlefield's stage, Yang smirks confidently as the camera pans down the line of final fighters, a few new faces mixed in with Sun, Dark SSJ4, Penny, Mercury, and the troubled Pyrrha at the other end of the line.
Port: (back in the announcer's box with his co-host) Barty, why don't you explain the rules?
Oobleck: Ah, it's quite simple, Peter. Instead of a bracket system, each round of the finals will be randomly determined immediately before the match takes place!
Port: Much like any good hunt, there will be zero time to prepare!
Oobleck: Ah, yes, yes! Now, let's see who our first match will be!
The energetic doctor points out to the screens above the stadium as the roulette starts spinning, this time for competitors instead of biomes. The "random selection" is watched by the owner of the Crow Bar, a group of Human and Faunus kids, the visitors and workers at the Cross Continental Transmit System, before it gets back from the worldwide audience glimpses to reveal the first showdown.
Port: Yang Xiao Long and Mercury Black!
Ruby: (cupping her hands to make sure her encouragement is heard from her spot alongside RWBY, JNPR, and SSSN) Break a leg, sis!
Cinder, still smiling, gets up from her place and begins walking out, eyes on the battlefield.
Port: Would all other combatants please leave the stage!
Dark SSJ4: Good luck, Yang.
Yang: Thanks, Dark. (smiles)
The rest of the lineup does so, and Yang starts walking up to Mercury in the middle as the floor around them opens once more, with a ring of spotlights rising up to automatically fix their lights on the remaining two.
Yang: (smiling) You better not go easy on me.
Mercury: (laughing darkly) You wish.
Both brawlers face the crowds one last time, then slowly start advancing on each other, arms raised defensively until their hands can almost touch, as the final countdown commences.
Port: Three! Two! One! Begin!
Immediately, Yang throws a punch, and Mercury spins his foot to meet it, creating a shockwave between the weapons that launches him back. He closes the distance quickly and aims at her feet with Talaria, but she leaps over it and fires off a shot of her Ember Celica that he rotates to avoid. They fight fist-to-fist for a moment, Yang getting in a fiery blast on her opponent at the cost of him also landing a blow on her. She falls back on her feet when Mercury shoots himself into the air to get farther away from her, looking up and smiling.
