Everyone got out of the way as I passed, and one by one they gave me respectful bows. I kept a blank look on my face pretending I did not see the fake bravado on their faces.

I was half-way to the exit when a voice stopped me. "What do we do about the other issue? He is getting in the way of her transition."

My head turned back as I answered. "Let him be."

"He's stealing her. Slowly...."

This time I turned around."Is he now?" I slowly took my dagger out and toyed with it around my fingers, circling it in a way that always intimidated people.

"Come on, mate. We all knew from the start that the Gisbornes-"

"Yes, I know, but then again we also know that they will never stand a chance." I flipped the dagger to my left and slowly crouched to the ground. I took my time inspecting the writings on the floor. The hall was now quiet, everyone waiting to hear what I had say next.

I slowly raised my head. "The girl, she's Kaiser's daughter." It was not a question. "Therefore, do nothing. Let Gisborne give it his best shot."

I smirked then with a flash I rose and threw the dagger straight at one of the opponent's chest in the ring. It landed a few inches from his heart. "Gentlemen." I clapped my hands as everyone gasped.

"Let the games begin."

And i say... Let the story begin! haha..
