Fortitude: Round 3 Start

[mamarosa]

The morning after the sleepover, Dolorosa is quick to get all of the Conquest students out the door to save them the wrath of Day and Santana. She gives her students a little more time but still hurries them so she can start the assembly on time. She didn't want her school to be in any disadvantage.

Some may notice that her ever present smile is a bit wider today, as she stands behind the podium, two prefects in tow. That's right, two prefects. Lelouch has reached prefect status and stands besides the ever cool Nanami. Dolorosa is eager to begin her speech.

"Welcome, my students. Last time we were here we suffered a gracious defeat, but I am happy to announce that this is not the case this round. We have obtained victory over Round 2, and I would like to say that I am proud of you all. You all fought wonderfully and no matter if you won or lost your match, Fortitude came out on top."

"If this were Conquest, or I a different troll, I would urge you to keep winning, to keep defeating Conquest, but we are not them and I am not different. Instead I would like to extend a congratulations for this round, and hope you try your hardest next round. Win or lose we can show that we are a cohesive school, here for more than just battle. I am proud of all of you, and just as we were gracious losers, I expect you all to be gracious winners as well."

"I'm sure you have all noticed the extra Raks you have obtained for winning the round, I hope you treat yourseld to something nice. Without further ado I will announce the battles that occurred this round."

Behind her, the battle records appear.

She starts with the Fortitude battles, "I am always proud when there is little fighting within our school, but I do encourage competition, so I would like to congratulate Dahlia for defeating Yuri, and Yuri for defeating Oichi." she applauds a bit.

Next up, the interschool battle, "For those who fought Conquest and won, I would like to congratulate Dave for defeating Marik, England for defeating Suzaku, Dave for defeating Suzaku, Oichi for defeating Suzaku, Dave for defeating Estonia, Marisa for defeating Nephenee, Dave for defeating Gino, and Yuri for defeating Gino." She applauds again.

"My last congratulations go to Dave, Marisa, and Oichi for winning the roung and helping Fortitude achieve victory!" And some more applauding.

The screen behind her changes again, "This round's Players are...

"Rebecca Harcourt
Dahlia Hawthorne
Shion
Lelouch vi Britannia
Madoka Kaname
Karkat Vantas
Kamui"

"Fight well everyone, I'm proud of you!"

"Ooh. How neat. Well, maybe next round I can see!" A small rumble sounded from the general vicinity of her stomach, and she blushed, "Oh dear...I have not eaten much since coming here. I suppose sunning will not work for me in this form..."

[traces]

"Oh, yes, maybe!"

Dahlia put one hand to her chin curiously. "Sunning? Whatever do you mean by that?"

[has_soothing_bells]

"My type is Grass, so I am a plant Pokemon. I normally get my nutrients by sunning, but in this form..." Growl growl. "I imagine I need real food."

[traces]

"Oh, I see... Well, real food has its advantages. It's very tasty!" Dahlia smiled. "But have you tried? Perhaps your sunning will still work."

[has_soothing_bells]

"Well...I suppose I can always try. If nothing else, I believe I will enjoy the feeling of the sun."
