[Event] 1st Year Grand Finale: Nathan V Zabar [Closed]
« on: August 03, 2017, 09:18:45 PM »

The sun shins down on the colossus of a floating arena as the final airbus dropped of its occupants. An quick alarm sounded from the edges of the arena, marking the seating of the last few individuals in the stands. Throughout Vale, Sanus, throughout the entirety of Remnant people turned to their screens, eager to watch the coming fight. All of them wanting to see the which first year was going to be the first champion of the class.



Far below the sun, Vulco looks across the multiple screens set up in the announcers booth, his assistant Derek stood nearby, going over the files of the two finalists. The screens flick through camera angles, flickering to the arena floor and then to multiple angles of the crowd as Vulco presses down on a keyboard below the screens. On the screens the hundreds of spectators move almost restlessly in their seats, idly chatting with those around them about the upcoming match and showing down on overpriced concessions. Among them, Malina sits speaking happily with professor Titania seated next to her. The two exchange a few remarks and a quick chuckle from Titania before the screen flickers and changes to a different section of the crowd. Directly in the center of the screen, Graviton sits eagerly chowing down on an obscenely large bucket of popcorn and seemingly talking happily with Fleetwood, his assistant. Meanwhile, Fleetwood seems to be doing her best to act like she doesn't know the fourty something year old man sitting next to her with the popcorn bucket the size of a small child. Once more the screen flickers and cuts to a section of the crowd sitting near the front row.

A girl with shoulder length, light pink hair and blue eyes sits with a small "Go Zabar" sign that seemed like it had been made minutes before. She sits alone, not having anyone she knows next to her to talk with and seemingly restlessly moving her leg up and down in anticipation for the match. A few rows above the girl, another similarly lonely girl with long blue hair and orange eyes sits in wait of the match. She doesn't seem anxious like the pink haired girl, however, she sits still and patient, keeping her eyes locked on the arena in intense interest.

Far above, back in the announcer's booth, Derek whispers something into Vulco's ear and the man nods.

Showtime.



The crackle of the loudspeaker could be heard throughout the arena as it switched on. "LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLADIES AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND GENTLEMEEEEEEEEEEN!" The crowd erupted into a roar of excitement as Vulco's voiced filled the coliseum. "WELCOME TO THE FINAL MATCH OF THE FIRST YEAR BRACKET!" The crowd erupted into another ceremonious cheer, whoops and hollers came from all corners of Remnant as people sat down on their couches, snacks in hand. "I AM YOUR HOST, VULCOOOOOOOOOO AND THIS IS GONNA BE F ҉   ҉ KING AWESOME!! LET'S HOLD THE CEREMONY UNTIL AFTER THESE TWO FINAL COMBATANTS ARE OUT ON FIELD THOUGH, SHALL WE!?" The crowd cheered heartily once more. "OUR FIRST COMBATANT HAS AN INFAMOUS REPUATATION FOR INJURING ANY WHO GET IN HIS WAY TO THE TOP, I DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU HIS NAME, IT'S NATHAN EAUUUUUUUU!! SAY WHAT YOU WILL ABOUT HIS TACTICS, HE'S GONNA BE A DEADLY HUNTER IN HIS TIME,
 AND A RUTHLESS OPPONENT FOR OUR SECOND COMBATANT, ZABAR AGAAAAA!! THE ONE, THE ONLY, THE VACUAN THAT COMES WITH A SMACKIN'!!
" The crowd erupted into applause as the two students entered onto the arena floor and began to make their way toward the center. "NEITHER OF THESE YOUNG MEN HAVE BEEN BESTED YET, BUT ONE WILL FALL TODAY, AFTER ALL ONLY ONE CAN LEAVE THE WINNER!" The two combatants reach the very center of the arena and grasp each others hands in a firm handshake and as their hands meet, the floor beneath them rises up into the air.

A chuckle is heard through the speakers of the arena as Vulco leans in toward the microphone in his booth. "NOW THIS'LL BE NEW TO THOSE YOUNG AND OLD. IN ADDITION TO THE NEW ENVIRONMENTS PRESENTED THIS YEAR, WE HAVE A BRAND NEW FINAL MATCH SYSTEM, RIGHT NOW IT'S JUST A FLAT CIRCLE, BUT YOU ALL JUST WAIT FOR THE SURPRIIISE! BUT FOR NOW, SINCE THERE'S NO ENVIRONMENTAL SPINNER, THE MATCH MAY START ONCE THE TWO COMBATANTS MAKE THEIR WAY TO OPPOSITE ENDS OF THE CIRCLE!!!"



The two students make their way to their respective ends of the arena and turn on their heels to face each other once more, each readying themselves for attack.

The floor itself has an intricate pattern on it, spiraling inward toward a large engraving of the Vytal symbol in the center. The floor is roughly the size of Yang and Mercury's match arena in its current state. Getting knocked off may result in a lose, but only if the contestant reaches the bottom 100 ft (30.48m) below.

(A coin flip has decided that Nathan can make the first move.)

As the camera was shwoing the crowd a flicker of movement could be seen as Gray's form ducked behind a seat in an attempt to avoid being caught on camera. He was seated just behind the girl with blue hair and in his ducking managed to smack his head into the back of her seat. "Dammit. ow"

Right. This was it. The finale. He'd actually made it all the way here without using his trump card, which made him a bit warm and fuzzy inside. Although he was a bit nervous - unsurprisingly failing to demonstrate as much - before entering the arena itself, he'd switched into battle mode the moment he crossed the doorway. Well, almost, he'd actually been instructed on the procedure before the match would actually start. He shook Zabar's harm in a firm manner, his face being the very description of neutrality while he did so.

As he reached his side of the circle and the match started, he took out Ergia and switched it to staff form, activating its secondary functions as well. He knew his opponent, this time around. Or at least, he'd seen him fight several times. He didn't need to test the waters as much, planning on going full throttle from the start.

The majority of the staff sections covered themselves in a bright orange glow, through which electrical arcs played.

He took a few steps forward to get away from the edge, waiting for his opponent.

Razzy was there. Oh, was Razzy there.

Seated as close to the front rows as he could, the boy had his foam finger and prop flag ready, but that was not all. This was the finale, and Vulco wasn't the only one bringing out the big guns. The pink fighter had purchased a Zabar hat, shirt, jacket and incredibly obnoxious vuvuzela. At the same time, however, he wanted to support his fellow student and guy representing Beacon as a whole - so he had convinced a group of friends who would occasionally swap between holding up signs that read 'GO ZABAR' and 'VICTORY FOR VACUO', and signs that read 'BEAT HIM FOR BEACON' and 'BREAK A LEG, NATHAN'. Razzy didn't ask for them to make that last sign, but they sure did.

Zabar stood mere feet from the edge of the circle, glancing down at the ground far below before turning around to face his opponent. The sun shone down into his eyes before he quickly adjusted his hat to make sure there weren't any distractions during the fight. This would be more intense than the other fights and Zabar knew it, no poncho, no overshirt, just his boots, his pants, his chestplate, his gauntlets, and his hat. One might be forgiven for thinking that his upper half was robotic with how little skin was shown compared to the gleaming metal encasing his chest and arms. On his right arm he had his symbol, the hawk, painted onto his gauntlet's bicep area, but on his left side he had a new. On his left arm, painted in a golden hue, were the three swords of Vacuo's symbol.

 He stretched his arms upward before lowering them into a ready position, each ready to activate his semblance in case Nathan decided to start off with a gun fight, though that quickly proved not to happen as Nathan took a similarly defensive stance. A smirk formed under the shade of the hat as Zabar started to slowly walk toward the other side of the arena.

As he approached the center of the circle, he took one last chance to cycle through his chambers of dust in his gauntlets. 'Four chambers each, two chambers of kinetic dust in each, fire and ice in right gauntlets and lightning and ice in the left.' He knew who he was up against, vaguely at least, mobility would be key in the fight.

As Zabar made it past the centermost point, his arms dropped behimd him and the sound of a gunshot rang out, signalling the blast of kinetic dust that came from both gauntlets, sending him rocketing forward toward Nathan. As he approached, he swung his arms around to his front and shifting the chamber to the ice dust, sending out a torrent a freezing particles ahead of him.

Brook raised an eyebrow as she turned to face the boy behind her. "You good?" She simply asked with a sense of half sincerity in her voice.

This was the point where Zabar sprang forward. He'd seen it in previous matches, was currently expecting it to happen at literally any point in the match, he still almost just flinched at the display. Apparently, sudden bursts of speed had that effect.

As it were however, he more or less just jumped and threw himself to his left as soon as he could - or, in other words, as fast as his reflexes allowed. While this made him avoid the mini-blizzard that ensued, he still spun his staff perpendicular to the direction Zabar was, the heat of the air around it turning any remaining Ice Dust into (relatively) harmless steam. He then resumed his previous defensive stance, keeping an eye on his opponent at all times.

Boy, was this going to be fun.

...No, really.

Zabar watched as Nathan appeared to the side and evaded his attack, not surprising to be honest, but this was just the beginning. Zabar continued his path through the air, sending him flying off the edge of the ring and down toward the ground. As soon as he'd passed the edge, however, he'd spun his chambers back to kinetic dust. Now, he pointed both arms downward and let out another burst of dust, sending him rocketing into the air. As he reached his apex, he let out another burst of dust and sent himself rocketing back down toward the ground, toward Nathan, with a kick firmly aimed toward his chest. As soon as that burst fired off he switched his chambers to lighting on his left hand and ice on his right, awaiting the counterattack that was sure to follow.

Nathan stood still as Zabar... disappeared from sight beyond the arena's edge. Taking his chance now that the opponent wasn't there (for a split second, anyway), as well as anticipating what would no doubt be a somewhat aggressive return onto the stage, Nathan backed off several steps.

And there he was. The Vacuan rocketed back up, then forwards again. Nathan twisted himself towards the center of the arena, barely managing to clear the speeding foot aimed at his sternum. He kept the sideways momentum he had to get a bit of distance between him - whowas good at CQC - and Zabar - who was mostly a melee person, from what he'd seen, before going for a mild swing towards the opponent's shoulder as he landed.

Zabar quickly brought up his right arm just in time to meet the staff with his forearm. "Not gonna be that easy." He said with a smirk before bending his arm forward and pushing down against the staff in an attempt to push it down toward the ground all the while he shot out his left arm toward Nathan's chest and let out a continuous plume of flames.

When Nathan realized Zabar's... gloved sleeves didn't really care about Ergia, he had the presence of mind to lift up and back the staff, stopping the opponent from locking it to the ground. He also moved to he is left again when he saw the Vacuan's free arm aim at his face. Not pre-emptively dodging those shiny gauntlets was not a very good way to win.

In retaliation, he used the other end of Ergia, aided by the push Zabar gave with his right arm, to smack him in the left kidney, even as a blazing inferno manifested itself where Nathan stood mere moments ago.

Zabar felt the pain of the hit connecting with his left side and quickly swing his left arm around to his left side, sending out a whip of red hot flames toward Nathan. Using the moment as a distraction, he quickly rolled away, a genuine smile forming on his lips. He was starting to get a feel for Nathan. Quicker than the others and less brash. Good.

The chamber in his left gauntlet before ending on the kinetic dust, just before the sharp claws of his left gauntlet extended outward. He quickly placed his left hand to the floor and let off a blast of dust, sending him rocketing forward toward Nathan once more, but halfway to his destination, he quickly flicked his wrist to the side and let off another burst of dust, sending him to the right side of his opponent. Just as he passed by his side, Zabar slammed his clawed gauntlet into the ground, anchoring him and causing him to spin around and face back toward his opponent's back before sending out a blast of ice dust toward his feet.

Catalina is here. He found his defeat at the finalist pretty solid, although it is still embarrassing to scream in pain in combat, in front of the entire world.

Regardless. He's here, and he's ready to cheer for Nathan, not caring for whatever the keyboard warriors or legit hunters would say. He smiled and crossed his legs when Nathan landed two hits and took none himself.

Nathan quickly backpedaled as Zabar flicked flames his way, then slowly walked to his right to get closer to the center of the arena. Meanwhile, his opponent rolled away - a good thing since he wasn't exactly planning on pushing his luck any further, for now at least.

Zabar then almost quite literally flew straight at him. Nathan started stepping right, only to see the Vacuan imitate him (albeit at a far greater speed). Not waiting to see where this would lead, he jumped to his left, receiving himself further off in a roll. As he got back up, he noticed that a non-negligible layer of ice had formed around his calves and feet. Luckily, though, the ice was highly uneven, so adherence was only mildly hampered. The crystalline water around his ankle had broken upon landing, leaving him with one of the strangest sets of armored boots he'd ever seen.

Since everything was (mostly) fine, he resumed his previous defensive stance.

Zabar quickly glanced down at the broken ice still attached around Nathan's leg and gave a little huff as he slowly stood back up from his crouched position. "Ya know, for someone who got known for shootin' three guys, you don't do a whole lot of attackin'." He spoke with an almost disappointed tone as his right gauntlet spun to the fire dust, giving the gauntlet a faint red glow, and the left gauntlet spun to ice. "Now let me guess..." He began as he took a slow step forward, dropping his left arm to his side as if readying himself to whip a pistol form a holster. "Tryin' to get me to waste all my dust? Orrr maybe just feelin' me out, is that it?" He continued, taking another step. "I gotta say, attack, dodge, attack, dodge, attack, dodge ain't too interestin' for the guys up there." He pointed with his right thumb up toward the crowd around them.

"Come on, I had my turn, it's your turn now." He grinned as he lowered his right hand down and pointed out his index finger in a finger gun motion.
