Round 9: Conquest

To those who had been in Rakuen a while it was a normal Sunday, the screens telling them to report to the foyer for assembly at 12, Santana making sure that no one got lost or tried to skip.

For those who were new it might seem strange, the angry looking woman on stage surrounded by students in Berets. Flynn, Feferi, Kevin, Suzaku, Golbez and Gino; the prefects of Conquest were joined by Santana when she finished dragging stragglers in.

Day stepped forward and everyone in the audience would experiance a sharp pain. It only lasted a second though and she sighed looking... not angry. But disappointed.

It was potentially more dangerous.

"I know you are better than this. You are either not trying, or this is some form of rebellion but it will stop."

She shook her head, "Some of you," America would be getting a headache as she spoke, "Didn't even fight before the deadline. You barely fought with Fortitude at all. It will change this round."

The Battle Records appeared on the screen behind her. "For Conquest fights, Cirno and Lemina Ausa, Cirno won." Lemina was hit by a penalty, hard enough to make her stagger. "Feferi Peixes and Samuel Henderson, Feferi won." Samuel was hit, "America and Lemina Ausa, America won." Lemina was hit once more.

"Against Fortitude you were pathetic, Lemina lost to Dave," Lemina was hit once again, and to Jake, and she drew with Jade." Just a twinge of pain for that last result, a draw was better than a loss after all.

"But." She glared at them, "At least Lemina actually fought against Fortitude," all the Players but Lemina were hit this time and the battle records faded.

"You better get your acts together, for this next round is our first tournament. A chance to prove your worth and I hope that you do not let me, or Conquest down."

She smirked at them, "Conquest have been chosen to fight first on Monday, which means even if you lose your match you will have to fight again by Thursday or you will be fined. Those that win will fight in the quarter finals, you may use two Weapons for your first fight, chose wisely. Fights outside the tournament are also encouraged, for practice and to gather the Weapons most likely to help you win.

And you better win."

The list of Players came up on the screen, but this time they were in pairs, the list of the first fights. Day read out the names.

"Nunnally vi Britannia vs Stellaluna
Kotaro Mochizuki vs Samuel Henderson
Jadesprite vs Duzell
Sis Strider vs Arthur Pendragon."

I vow to protect you.

[ he grins at how weird that sounds, coming from her - then again, she's the most determined person he's ever met, so like he'd doubt it - and takes her hand to kiss it formally.

And then grins again right after. ]


That's my line.

[pfft]

But it's the formal vow, isn't it? And what kind of Empress would I be if I couldn't protect my subjects?

[ That's actually a really bizarre line coming from a Britannian ruler, but he's learned to just go with it. The sword of Conquest flickers onto his hand. ]

Ha, I can't argue with that. Good thing you're you.

[I'M NOT YOUR AVERAGE BRITANNIAN RULER oi]

Anyone with a responsibility should keep that in mind...
