[the announcement rings through the campus all morning, on the half-hour: Can all participating Players report to the Tournament Stadium for midday with their chosen Weapons. The event will begin at twelve twenty-five for all other students.

Yes, that's right, the Tournament Stadium. During the early morning of Day 1, the staff were hard at work constructing a stadium in the main courtyard. There's raised seating for all students, and a large open-air ring for the participants. There's more than enough space even for fliers, and a number of raised areas, stairs and chest-high walls to make battles more interesting. At the end of the stadium is a large screen showing the ring from above.]

Miwako was trembling as she climbed up into the stadium. She didn't want to do this. She really, really didn't want to do this. It wasn't fair to make people fight with each other. It wasn't right at all.

Molly shuffled in, why she was okay with fighting she really only wanted to fight bad guys. This girl did not look like a bad guy, nor has she done anything bad to Molly or any of her friends. Did they really have to fight?

"This is dumb!"

A little girl? Miwako had to fight a little kid? This was absolutely not right at all.

"Um-- are you Molly Hayes?"
