The stage was set for the first round in the Beastfolk bracket of the tournament. This would be one match of many taking place within the old, dirt-coated arena. It hadn't seen much use in a while, but today it would see quite a bit of use from those wishing to prove their might and their potential as Future Heroes. The crowds were cheering as the barred doors opened, permitting the combatants into the main arena. It was a wide, circular arena with several pillars erected in various locations, but otherwise lacked much in the way of decoration. The sun was high and the stage was set.
THE WHEEL OF FATE IS TURNING
ARMANDO LUNA VERSUS BRIELLE HOLLY
ACTION!

| The Declaration of Future Heroes. Such a pretentious name for a battle tournament. It's not like any of those signed up will actually ever become heroes. The odds of that happening were slim to none. Still Brielle signed her name on the dotted line and decided to fight in this so called tournament of champions.
The announcer shouted out her name just after her opponents and the large door she was waiting behind opened to reveal a very sparse arena. A thought crossed her mind that her opponent had the very same name as the Fang of the Beastfolk. Brielle didn't believe that she would really start out against the Fang himself and still refused to believe it until after she saw the tail and fin of him.
"Uh. Hi." She said. "I'm Brielle Holly, I, uh, really wasn't really expecting to um face off against you Mr. Fang sir." The words stammered out of her mouth like wet cats escaping a bath.Was she supposed to bow or curtsy here? What were the protocols on fighting a politically powerful figure in a tournament?

There are few movement in life that got his blood flowing, this movement here is one of those times. The crowd is cheering, his sword is ready and the battle is soon to begin. The Future Heroes tournament was the perfect place for him.
"And today matchup is! Armando Luna vs....."
Now! With a small push, the doors that lead to the arena floor open wide. Armando took in the site of the battlefield, counting everything that is an advantage. Here he was in his element, he was no second, no head power that must be respected because of his spot. No, he was a warrior, one that is ready for anything that was turn his way.
"....Brielle Holly"
Oh? Look like his opponent is....Eva? No, that is not her, no matter how much she look her. But the damage is already done, he can feel old wound tearing open. This gonna be a long match, he already knows.
"Uh. Hi." She said. "I'm Brielle Holly, I, uh, really wasn't really expecting to um face off against you Mr. Fang sir."
He widen his eyes, granted she most likely was just nervous but she sounded like her for a split second. It was then that her words register and old feeling burst out from him.
"Don't call me that!"
He snap, then flinch when he remember where he was. He wasn't in the forest, wasn't with them or her. With a sigh, he open his mouth to speak, unbidden emotion lacing his words. It almost sounded like he was a brother talking to his younger siblings.
"Right now I'm not the Fang of the Beastfolk, okay? If you must be respectful, Mr. Luna can do. You must remember that in a tournament you can alway face someone that you least expect. Now then Miss Holly, bring out your blade and get ready."
Taking his own advice, he pull out his sword and got into his fighting stance.
"Round one of the future heroes tournament, beastfolk branch, begin!"

| "Um... Okay." Brielle answered this man's instructions for battle. "Mr. Luna in that case. It's an honor to face you." She gave a quick bow before readying her weapons. Oh Heroes of Old, can I do this? Can I beat this man? She questioned, not expecting an answer.
She gripped her daggers tight as she rushed at Armando. Utilizing one of the most basic techniques she's learned from various adventurers, Brielle unleashed what she called her Cat's Claw attack. She dragged the dagger in her dominant hand against the shark beastfolk hoping to deal a little extra damage to him.
It occurred probably too late to Brielle that this man was a trained warrior whereas Brielle had been self-taught this scrappy style of fighting she uses. He had probably assumed that starting stance as some kind of defensive move against her. No matter, that wouldn't stop her from doing her best to defeat him. With a short yell she thrust her other dagger at Armando.
