[I]Fire[/i]team[/b] [b]Warlock[/b] Awoken, Female High fructose [b]Hunter[/b] Human, Male Corn [b]Titan[/b] Exo, Male Syrup [spoiler] I was looking at the ingredients on my candy, shoot me.¯\_(´◡`;)_/¯[/spoiler] ____________________________ Cosm0 walked to the center of the makeshift wrestling ring, microphone in hand. "Ahem..." she cleared her throat once, tapping her index finger onto the head of the microphone. "Testing, testing, one two three..." She said into the mic. "Is this thing ONNNN--" She and the party goers flinched as the whine from the feedback sounded throughout the entire room. "Haha! I-I guess so!" Markus shouted towards Cosm0 with a chuckle, trying to keep awkward from settling into the room. "Hehe, thanks Markus~!" Cosm0 waved at him, then she looked at the crowd. "That's my Markus. We're like, best friends. It's [i]pretty[/i] serious." She chortled giddily before twirling both of her index fingers. "Deedly doo~! How about you guys give my Markus a hand?" She then pointed at Markus, which made the crowd look at Markus. "Give my Markus a hand everybodyyyyy~!" "Ehe, heyyyyyyy...." Markus said with a nervous grin now plastered on his face as he waved shyly. Yeah, he liked introducing himself. But then again Cosm0 just, again, showed him off to the crowd. "Heehee! Ain't he cute~?" She waved once more towards the seemingly shrinking Markus before driving her attention back to the spectators. "Anyway!" She continued, "It's time to [i]Ruuuuuuuumble[/i]!" She announced loudly with sheer gusto, pointing to the roof with her free hand as an ancient pre-Golden Age track known as [i]Eye of the Tiger[/i] played loudly in the background. "Presenting," Cosm0 began to introduce the competitors. "Our first competitor! She's haughty, she's proper, and she doesn't like idiots. Pleeeaaaaase give a hand forrrrrrr the Hunter's Warlooooooock... [i]Warlooooooooock[/i]!" She shouted energetically. "For lack of a name!" She added, winking a pink-eyed optic. ____________________________ Excited applause roared throughout the room as they began to chant the class name of the Hunter's "champion". "Okay Floof you got this, you can do this!" The Hunter encouraged her before placing his hands onto her shoulders for a warm up massage. "Oh woah-- Hey, your shoulders are soft." He remarked before the Warlock scoffed and jerked herself away from him. "I do [i]not[/i] require your physical contact, [i]Hunter[/i]. I am only doing this because the sooner this is over, the sooner I can return to my meditation." She said before leaving the Hunter's side to approach the fighter's ring. "Meditation, shmeditation!" The Hunter shouted after her. "Concentration is so [i]flippin[/i]' overrated!" ____________________________ "Ooh, hey there~!" Cosm0 greeted the Warlock as she approached the ring to stand beside Cosm0. "Greetings." The Warlock replied with exasperation. "Let us get this over with as soon as possible." "Ooh sure! You're the boss's unpaid intern after all!" "[i]Excuse[/i] m--" the Warlock was just about to interject before Cosm0 cut her off. "NEXT UP!" Cosm0 began again, "Is a sweet cinnamon roll! She's polite, she's encouraging, and I barely know her! Please welcome, Rush's Warlock, [i]Emiliaaaaaaaaaaa[/i]!" ____________________________ "Knock 'em dead, Emmy." Rush whispered confidence to her as he gave her a pat on her back. "I'll definitely do [i]something[/i] without violence." Emilia replied with a nod as she left Rush to join the Warlock in the ring. Rush watched her leave, letting out an audible, slow exhale as he thought to himself, However all thoughts were interrupted as he jumped from a firm slap planted on his rear. Rush quickly turned around to see the perpetrator. Surprise, surprise, it was the Hunter. "'Ey Rush~." The Hunter snickered as he stood beside him, crossing his arms. "Just wanted to watch this [i]thang[/i] with ya." Rush muttered something under his breath, rubbing his backside. "Oh, what?" The Hunter studied Rush, eyeing him up and down before chuckling and winking his blue eye at him. "You ain't used to gettin' your butt hit?" "No. [i]Especially[/i] not by [i]you[/i]." Rush mumbled in reply. "Better get used to it, Rush-baby. Gonna be a lot more where that came from." "[i]Wh-what[/i]?!" ____________________________ "Pleased to meet you again." The Warlock greeted primly with a nod of acknowledgement. "Pleased to meet you too." Emilia replied levelly in accordance to the Warlock's greeting. "Ohohohoh! While you two ladies get acquainted, there's one more guy I gotta introduce~!" Cosm0 squealed before analyzing the crowd, looking for her own "champion". "Ooh, ooh! Markus! Up here, up here!" She called out to the crowd. "Oh, coming!" Markus replied before maneuvering his way through the sea of Guardians to make his way to the ring. Once he made it up to the ring, he waved at the female Warlocks. "Hey ladies!" He greeted cheerily. "Hm." The Hunter's Warlock greeted back in her own, remarking way. She was judging him. Just by his greeting she was judging him. "Hello there." Emilia waved back, smiling politely. Letting her hand fall back to her side, Emilia looked at the two competing Warlocks. "Ah, uhm... We aren't [i]really[/i] going to fight, are we?" "No, I don't suppose we are." The Hunter's Warlock replied. "I didn't wanna fight anyway!" Markus shrugged. Emilia nodded in agreement, crossing her arms. "This is a bit ridiculous..." Emilia continued, which made the Hunter's Warlock nod in reply. "Aha, I mean. It [i]is[/i] that Hunter's fault in the first place. By the Traveler he's a pain, I feel sorry for you a bit." Emilia went on. "He should have really watched his--" "Allow me to stop you right there." The Warlock stepped in. "I will not allow you to talk lowly of [i]my[/i] Hunter, though I [i]may[/i] agree with you on some points. He is still my Hunter." Markus couldn't help but snort in amusement. "Hehe! By the way you keep calling him 'your' Hunter, it almost sounds like you-- WOAH!" Markus jumped to the side as a ball of solar energy whisked past him. It was the Hunter's Warlock who had attempted to throw it at him. "I. do. [i]Not[/i]!" She snarled at Markus, who immediately put his hands up to his chest defensively, signalling he meant [i]no[/i] trouble whatsoever. "You didn't have to do [i]that[/i]." Emilia put in, to which the Warlock snapped her attention back at her. "Neither did [i]you[/i] when you made that insulting remark about the Hunter!" "I was only saying--" "Ladies, please! It's just a ga--" "[b]Be QUIET![/b]" Both Warlocks turned to snap at Markus, who distanced himself even further from the fiery vixens. "Okie dokie." Markus quietly said. "Ho boy." Cosm0 sniffed.
