SSB: The Double Trouble Tourney (for Broken Saint)

[Sardonyx]

"It's been a long time...."

Suddenly a dark void in the middle of unknown territory began to brighten due to the appearance of a new light. Several new lights, for multiple different bubbles began to phase into reality on a molecular level. But they weren't bubbles...they were portals.

Portal that broadcasted new lands in sight, all very different from each other in atmosphere and scale, as if they were all located in different dimensions from each other.

At the center of it all, twelve different figures appeared in a circle.

"...I have to say, it's been a long time since we've gotten together like this..."

"Has it now...? It feels as though it's only been yesterday...however, it's good to see that you're all in good health though..."

"None of you guys have aged a bit...heh, 'specially you Ness...you're still a tyke...!"

"What the heck's that supposed to mean..?!"

"Enough...!" suddenly a new figure began to float down from the black sky above as if he faded into existence, which revealed a white gloved right hand. "I didn't summon you here to bicker amongst yourselves...you can save that for when the tournament begins in a month from now..." he sighed. "It may have short for you...but for me...it's been seven LONG years...and I've grown tired of waiting..."

"A month?" one of the twelve spoke again. "You've never summoned us this early before...what's it for...?"

"This time...I've decided to implicate a new rule into the tournament...and I require your assistance..." the hand spoke, garnering confusion from his audience. "And that is....?"

Elsewhere...

[RavenSaint]

Gorons are fighting against a joint army of Goblins and Moblins on their beloved Death Mountain. The reason for the battle could be because the Goblins wanted to takeover the Mountain. However, no matter the number advantage, they are losing quite badly...actually, to be fair, the Goblins only have one base left, with something like a bigger Moblin as a boss. How could this be? Well the Gorons were fortunate enough to find two people willing to help them in this fight.

The first of which literally just blasted some of the Goblins out of the way as she steps into the base. A black book in her right hand, and a staff of wood in the other, this female appears to be a mage of some kind...even though her clothing would more likely say desert belly dancer or something. Her entire body - discounting her breast, neck and hands - is covered in an extremely thin layered bodysuit. Her breasts are covered with a black bra, her bottoms covered by a what could be best described as a glorified black thong with some cloth hanging down to her knees. Her wrists, knees and ankles all have a golden bracelet on it. This woman, who appears to be twenty-six-ish, has not only hazel eyes but also lengthy black hair.

"So this is where the boss is," she said rather confidently. "Before this Time Mage strikes you all down I'll let you all know and tremble at the name Olivia," this mage stated even more confidently as she isn't, at all, acknowledging the Goblin lunging at her from behind.

(Wasn't very sure how to reply, lol)

[Sardonyx]

But before said Goblin could reach his target, a huge wave a fire came from the west side and burnt the creature to a crisp. The flames just narrowly missed Olivia.

"If the 'Great Time Mage' Olivia wishes to keep her head, then it would do her good to pay attentions to her surroundings..." came a voice as a white knee high armor boot stepped onto the ashes of the recently fallen Goblin.

The second of the two revealed themselves, not only with those boots, but with a skin tight black tunic which extended down to her feet as a body suit and brown vest that acted as the remains of her armor. On her back she had a sword sheathed in it's scabbard. For one heading into such a battle, it was strange that her seemingly one and only weapon was still tucked away.

"We're close...I can smell a new presence even fouler than the fodder cronies..." she spoke to her partner. Her name was Lara, and she looked maybe slightly younger than Olivia.

(It's okay. ^_^)

[RavenSaint]

Almost as if not even realising how close she was to being stabbed Olivia simply smiled as she heard the familiar voice of her partner, Lara, commenting about paying attention to one's surroundings. "There is no need to pay much attention when I have you watching out for my ass," the black haired girl gleefully said in response to the more appropriately dressed woman.

"Well that Moblin looks more battle hardened, as well as uglier, than the rest of the pieces on this board," Olivia started "maybe he is the king we need to take down in this game of life-size chess?" The mage stated with a grin, often referring to battles and fights as mere games, even though such a thought could lead to times where the Time Mage will definitely need saving. "Considering the Goblins around him are few in number, I'd wager that they're his special defence...nothing that my magic cannot handle," was spoken overconfidently as the black haired woman dared to turn her back towards the large Moblin.

(Thanks. ^_^)

[Sardonyx]

"I'm not going to be able to watch out for you all the time Olivia...if I was preoccupied with another foe you could have been seriously injured...you're a mage and by extension a fighter...be on your toes." Lara said in a scolding tone as her lips formed a frown. She had the tendency to be fairly strict when it came to the safety of her partner.

As shown when she vanished from sight and appeared again behind Olivia when she turned her back toward their Moblin target, who went in to attack the mage when she wasn't looking. But his blade swipe was blocked and he ended up clashing swords with Lara instead, who finally unleashed her prized weapon to use. The blade itself was crimson at the hilt and black in the blade with a scarlet lining. Despite looking older, it didn't look battle worn, as if it sustained little to no damage from being use in battle.

[RavenSaint]

Even though looking older Olivia pouted like a bratty six year old when Lara scolded her about, due to her 'not going to be able to watch out for you all the time,' the mage would need to be on her toes or else end up being 'seriously injured'. Sure these scoldings are annoying, but the woman in black knew that Lara is merely doing this out of care, so she isn't too offended by them like she was at first.

"What, like just now if you didn't block the hit?" Olivia cheekily commented the moment she heard the all to familiar sound of swords clanging against each other before raising her staff up. "From Zora's Domain to the battlefield, let thy waters purify the land!" the moment Olivia finished her words, which others say see her as weird when she say them, water began to blast out from the tip of her wooden staff. But instead of nailing either her partner or the Moblin the water flowed around the three of them and struck the other Goblins in the base, wiping them all out in the process. "There goes the distractions," Olivia chuckled after saying her line while turning around to see her friend and the beast still fighting. "Need my help?" she asked in a cheeky tone, instead of a serious one.

[Sardonyx]

"Hmph...yes exactly like if I didn't block the hit...my point still stands though and you know it." Lara stated as remained in a stalemate for a brief moment with her foe.

She felt a bit of the water pass by her body as a spray even as it nailed every other Goblin in the base, wetting her auburn colored hair and causing the metal of her leg armor to glisten and shine against the moisture.

Though at Olivia's offer to help, Lara quickly declined and stated. "No...I can handle this on my own...it wouldn't feel right to have such a small number as my kill count as you eliminated the others..." and at his comrades being wasted, knowing he was the last. The Moblin boss lashed out in anger, smoke puffing from his nostril. With a loud snarl he brought his sword back above his head to give a heavy hit.

"I'll take care of him...." However Lara suddenly caught his blade with the palms of her hands, but her human hands were replaced with that of dragon claws of the same size. The entirety of both her arms underwent a transformation into the appendages of a legendary beast.

"Partial Transformation...Arms..." Lara mumbled as her eyes suddenly sharpened and scales began to emerge on her skin in little bits, before she suddenly lifted her target by the sword he was holding, and with her new strength tossed him far toward the wall of the cave, before breathing out another large wave of fire to incinerate the Moblin.

[RavenSaint]

Even though intending to wipe out the Goblins, which she did successfully, this isn't the first time Olivia has let her water spell touch Lara. If anything it is almost like the mage likes how much the metal of the warrior's leg armour shines and glisten, as well as how Lara' hair looks when slightly wet. "Well, if you insist," the raven haired female stated lightly spring up to where her right foot is balancing on the staff while her other leg is by her waist, like a half mediating position, as she is now looking like she is reading her book.

"Remember to entertain me," Olivia said lightly as she spot the Moblin charging towards her friend. Watching her comrade semi-transform into a dragon as she watched Lara's claws effortlessly catch the sword and tossed the Moblin directly at a wall. The incineration of the last enemy also was turning all the gushed water into steam, thus making the base a large sauna, as well heated the room massively. Which Olivia, rather amusingly, took advantage of as - when Lara looks towards her - she is no longer standing on her staff but beside standing beside Lara with some meat hanging on the end of her staff, clearly using the incineration to cook the meat.

"Had fun with your cooking?" Olivia asked with a smile, almost as if they weren't in a battle at all.

[Sardonyx]

As the area filled with steam, thus turning it into a makeshift sauna, Lara's partial transformation ended. Her arms and eyes became normal and her scales began to disappear.

As this occurred, and when her dominant arm was normal, she picked up her sword that was halfway lodged into the earth due to her discarding it when tossing the Moblin and and tossed it up into the air where it began to spin like a windmill. Then with a sigh she leaned to the side slightly and her sword fell into it's scabbard with perfect accuracy as it descended from the sky.

Then she turned toward Olivia and saw how she took advantage of the heated cave by cooking her food and walked closer. Upon her question, Lara simply responded with. "It was dull..." before taking a handful of the meat Olivia was hanging on her staff and ripping it off. Then she took a large bite from the piece and as she was eating she spoke again. "When are you going to stop treating the battle field like it's a game...? Hopefully before you lose a limb..."

[RavenSaint]

"If it is so dull, then why not play with your prey?" Olivia was quick to question once she heard Lara's answer as she let her partner ripping the meat off her staff and began to eat it. Now a pout returned upon the black haired woman's face once she heard the dragon girl's question about when the time mage is 'going to stop treating the battle field like it's a game.' "Maybe...probably...n....never," she answered with a grin.

"Time is too long to take everything seriously," she cheerfully stated, her words may hold some merit...if she ever took anything seriously. "And I'll never lose a limb, I'm not that bad when it goes to awareness. And if I was, I probably would be wearing plated armour instead of this," the mage said with a chuckle as she watched her partner in arms eat away.
