The Tower

[Nick]

(Nick walked up to the tower and looked up. The towers roof was not visable and reached way beyond sight. Choi walked up.)

Choi: Are you going into the tower master?

I was distracted twice while trying to reach the top of this tower... a great treasure waits whom ever can beat each oppnite on each floor.

Choi: But boss... you don't know how tall this tower is... it could take a life time to beat it.

This tower is the final test to completely prove my skills... the final test. I beat the tower and I'm truely worthy of the title Master. Its not that I can do it... its because I walk the path of the warrior... I must take on this tower.

Choi: But why must you? If this is your final test then it means it could be stronger than you.

One day you will understand my friend... to be strong you must beat the strongest.

(Nick walked up to the doors.)

Listen Choi... theres a good chance I might not be coming back out again.

Choi: What do you mean!!!! You changed the rules of the tower... no one can die in there any more.

For me to fairly beat this life challange... the rules must be as they were before I changed them. There is a good chance I will not be coming back... If that happends... Whisp is to take my place as leader of the Meji Heros... and El Scotto is to be crownd king of Meji.

Choi: But... yes sir... as you wish.

(Nick looked at Choi and smiled.)

I will be back... you can count on that.

(Nick openned the door and closed it behind him. Choi just sat down outside the tower picking the grass every now and then.)

[Nick]

(Nick was in a small hallway with a bit of stairs leading to an open room. Nick walked into the room and the a door slammed shut behind him. Nick quickly looked behind him to see the door closed tight. He looked around the room and saw only a few windows with very little light shining through and a few supporters, he saw the other door that lead to the second floor of the tower.)

So...

(Nick took a step and looked at around again and was shocked to see someone standing at the other end of the room in a shadow form. It was as if the figure just appeared in a blink of an eye. Nick took a few steps towards the figure and the figure was reveald.)

Hideyoshi.

(Nick fought Hideyoshi when cutting down each officer to get to Nobunaga Oda in that war years ago. Hideyoshi was his very first duel in that war.)

Hideyoshi: Why hello Nick... I shall take your life for taking mine.

(Nick pulled out his spear as Hideyoshi pulled out his three sectonal nunchuck.)

Your very welcome to try... I came in here well knowing that I might not be coming back out again... so I'll be giving it my all in each of these fights. I'm not holding back anything.

Hideyoshi: It will do you know good... even if you beat me... you will not make it to the top.

(Hideyoshi then swung his weapon around.)

Hideyoshi: Now... without further delay... its time we get this show on the road! He he he he!

Vermilion appears next to Nick as the two fight.

Vermilion: *Intrupts the fight* You...

*puts her hand on Hideyoshi's shoulder*

wait...

*he freezes. she turns to nick*

He wont be like that, for very long... you appear to know quite a lot about the Sengoku Era...the age of warlords...the Warring states of Japan, in the human world anyway... tell me Nick, is this what you want to do? Is this Tower worth your destiny? It could change your fate drastically...

[Nick]

Thats the path of the warrior... the final challage must be a fight. Do not stop me Vermilion.

[-x._Nikita_.x-]

Vermilion:........you understand the risks, correct?

[Nick]

Yes... and I accsept them.

[-x._Nikita_.x-]

Vermilion: Fine then....*time unfreezes and she moves out the way*

[Nick]

(Nick knew this was going to be a fast fight. Hideyoshi was barely a match against Nick before. Both started by swinging at each other with their weapons. Nick was jumping around while Hideyoshi tryed to keep him in one spot so he could get a good hit in. Then in one swing Nick cut Hidayoshi's weapon in half.)

Your done.

(Nick then slashed and cut right through Hideyoshi. Hideyoshi fell and died. The door to the next floor openned.)

No time to wait.

(Nick walked up to the next floor. This time he was met by someone with a mask and hookswords.)

Kabal.

(Nick fought Kabal at the pyrimd of the gods in the realms. Kabal is one of many warriors he fought with that day.)

Kabal: Fight.

(The door behind Nick closed.)

Thats why I'm here.

[xNikitax]

( I'm too lazy to sign in!!! )

Vermilion also walked though the doors. Although Nick did not know it, Vermilion had a lot of control in the tower.

[Nick]

(Kabal took out his hookswords.)

I've never fought you with your hookswords... this should be interesting.

(Kabal attacked and clashed with Nick's spear. Nick pushed Kabal off and knocked him into the wall. Kabal looked at Nick and put his fist up and a buzz saw cut throught the ground towards him. Nick rolled out of the way and was hit by a small blast from Kabal's back cannon.)

Buzz saw... lasers... I guess that acid really messed your face up. No wonder you haft to wear that mask.

Kabal: damn you!

(Kabal cut down with both hookswords and caught Nick's spear. Nick then pulled up and knocked the swords right out of Kabal's hands. Kabal then kicked Nick's spear out of his hands.)

I don't need my spear to kick your ass.
