"Out we go then. It'll be nice to see a fight that doesn't involve me getting punched in the face." Derek smiled as he left his office with Amara, quickly making their way to the fight.
When Derek and Amara passed her office, Boss put on a smile, but was extremely concerned. She really wanted Amara to figure out for sure sooner rather than later for the possible baby's sake or at least stay out of the field until she knows for sure.
Amara bit her lip softly, pushing everything else out of her mind for now. She wanted to focus on the upcoming fight and enjoy having some fun before the inevitable attack from the Machines.

Olivier sighs as she looks at Cole. "May have to do with the Morphin' Grid. I have no idea why it won't pick up Moze's successor at this time." By the time the light turns green, they keep moving. "I mean most of us continue forward with Moze's legacy. Some are stuck in the past. Perhaps the Grid is stubborn because it has a difficult time moving forward."
"either that or there hasn't been a right candidate," Cole said., "Remember, teh Keys chose us the last time because we all jumped into the fight outside of the diner." As the light turned green, he took off again, making hte turn for the stadium. "And of course Ken's here first."

Derek and Amara were next to arrive at the arena. Once he was out of the silver SUV, he happily stopped to take pictures with a few fans who recognized him.
"Thankfully this isn't a super gaming crowd, otherwise I'd be getting swarmed." Derek laughed as he was closing in on the others who had already arrived.

"Probably being forced to. Given what he's been doing all this time, it's obvious he wants to get this over with." Olivier sighs at the sight of Ken's Royal Steed. Once she and Cole park in their spot, she's out from the Mustang, watching Cole following suit. Then they went over to their friends. "Hey guys."

Jun noticed the Mustang and approached the group, "Yo," he spoke with a casual smile.

Amara shook her head with a smile, looping her arm around Derek's as they met up with everyone. "Hey, guys," she said.
"About time," Ken said, rolling his eyes as Cole and the others showed up. "Let's get this over with. I've got better things to do."
"No, you don't," Kida said. "Today's about having fun and reconnecting, not worrying about the Machines and what they'll plan next. If they attack, they attack. It isn't a day to worry. We're here to watch a boxing match and have fun."
"Yeah," Cole said with a grin. 'I'm excited. My money's on Tifa."
"Dude, same!" Jax laughed. "I caught up on her last few matches, and Jesus H Christ is she strong."

"Damn right she is. I've heard plenty about her from some of my older creators who are boxing lovers. It'll be cool to see her in action for myself." Derek said, looking forward to a clash that doesn't involve the fate of the Earth.

"I'll say. This fight is going to be awesome." Olivier chimes in with excitement. "If Tifa beats Kaitlynn Harper, she'll be among the best fighters."

"Then let's get going!" Kida said with a grin. She led everyone to the front of hte Stadium, handing over the voucher for the tickets. Once it was approved, the group made their way inside, all of them heading for the side of the boxing ring.
"Wait, we got ringside?!" Amara asked.
"Hell yeah. If we're going to do this, we're gonna do it right," Kida said with a grin.
"Awesome!" Cole said with a grin, already going ovr things in his head to try and calculate how quickly it would take for Tifa to have to win. He took his seat with Olivier, fingers tapping against his leg as he worked on his calculations.
"What's on your mind, Cole?" Jax asked, sitting on the Green Ranger's other side.
Cole looked at Jax, shaking his hands out,. "Working out how quick it would take for Ms. Thorston to have a TKO against Ms. Harper. Harper's speed is almost unreal for anyone not Ranger-enhanced, but Tifa's resistance to most physical blows is fascinating at the same time. She'll have to resist a flurry of body shots and get a powerful punch on Harper's jaw to send her to the mat."
Ken rolled his eyes. "Do you have to ruin this?"
"Do you ahve to talk?" Cole snapped.
"Guys," Amara said. "Alright, you two. Got a bet."
The brothers looked at each other before looking at Amara. "What?" Ken asked.
"If Tifa wins, Ken has to wear pink for a week. If Kaitlynn wins, Cole wears yellow for a week. If the fight gets interupted for any reason, I wear the ugliest shades of both colors for a week," Amara said. "And theres' no arguing about the colors either."
Ken and Cole looked at each other, Ken grimacing at the thought of having to wear pink but he also knew he wasn't able to resist a bet. "Deal," the two said, shaking Amara's hands.
"This is gonna be fun," Amara said with a grin.

Jun just rolled his eyes over what the others are planning, waiting patiently for the match to start, "I wonder who this Tifa looks like," he thought to himself.

"This oughta be good." Derek snacked on some extra buttery popcorn while getting comfy in his seat, not really focused on the side bet Amara made with the boys.

Olivier smirks lightly. At least this bet is something she doesn’t have a problem with. She takes a bite of the nachos from the bowl as she watches the match.

Over the next bit, the stands gradually filled up until they were nearly full. The lights went out and a spotlight shined on the center of the ring. "ARE YOU READY FOR A FIGHT!?" the announcer asked, looking around and seeing hte crowd. "That's why we're here, folks! Let's bring out our two competitors!" Music started as a spotlight illuminated one hallway. "In this corner! Standing five foot seven and weighing in at 165 pounds, and looking to retain her title, Kaitlynn "Hammer Hands" Harper!" The music swelled as Kaitlynn Harper came out, throwing her hood off and raising her hands into the air. "Sitting 9-0 in this season, Hammer Hands is looking to defend her title from an unexpected challenger!" The spotlight swung around the crowd, going to the other entrance. "In this corner! Standing at five foot three and weighing in at 160 pounds, looking to take the title from the reigning champion in her first season--Tifa "Thunder Fists" Thorston!" A blonde woman came running out of hte tunnel, the crowd erupting in cheers as she made her way down the ramp and toward the ring. "Also sitting 9-0 this season, Thunder Fists is looking to claim her first championship and make a name for herself outside of her illustrious modeling career!" Jax looked down as his tablet beeped, tapping Kida's arm. "The Grid," he whispered, handing her the tablet. Kida looked at the tablet, seeing the Red Ranger Key on the screen with CONNECTION CONFIRMED flashing across it. She tapped the tablet and the device brought up Tifa's picture. "Looks like we found our Red Ranger," she said. Tifa made her way to her corner, shrugging off her robe and cracking her neck. "This ain't gonna end well for her. I'm taking htat title." "I know, babe, I know. But you gotta stay focused. You ain't gonna just win it in round one. Keep movin', avoid her hammer punches, and knock her down as fast as you can," her trainer said. |

Jun watched the fight and for some reason, his eyes locked onto Tifa, amazed by how she looked. He remained silent as the match was close to beginning.

Derek was locked in to what should be a good fight. After being a Ranger for so many years, he started to look at this fight more strategically.
"Tifa should have the speed advantage and needs to use it. I just hope she doesn't get too excited and empty the tank too early." He said in between his snacking of buttery popcorn goodness.

Derek's assessment would be right. As the fight started, Tifa would move in with almost blinding speed, landing dozens of punches before quickly retreating and avoiding Kaitlynn's hammer punches. Kaitlynn did eventually land one punch to Tifa's torso as the first round ended, both women seperating to opposite corners. Round two proceeded almost the same, but Kaitlynn started to return fire as much as she took it. She hit Tifa hard in the ribs, making the slightly smaller blonde yell before a punch to the face knocked her down. She clawed her way back to her feet as the bell rang, signalling the end of the round. With wounds treated, Round Three commenced, Kaitlynn taking hte lead for the first time in the bought, but getting a whistle blown on her when she hit Tifa in the leg. The up-and-coming rookie took the shot in stride, her fist making hard contacat with Kaitlynn's face and knocked her to the ground. The champion managed to get to her feet as the bell rang, a repeat of Tifa's save in the second round. Round four kicked off with both women circling each other, Tifa blocking several shots to the face before delivering her own flurry to Kaitlynn's torso, feeling a rib crack as she landed a solid blow. Kaitlynn returned with a hard punch to Tifa's face, cutting her just above the right eye. Tifa hit Kaitylnn in the face and felt her nose break, a grin on her face before dodging a punch from the champion. As the bell dinged and Tifa headed for her corner, a blow to the back from Kaitlynn knocked her down. She managed to get back to her feet, seeing the Champion's trainer and the referee dragging her backward. She sat down and winced as her own trainer started cleaning the cut over her eye and she spat her mouth guard out. "That bitch," she spat. She took a drink of water and spat it out, pumped up for the upcoming round five. "That should be points off for hte illegal hit." "It will be. She does it again, it's a DQ and you win," the trainer said. "Just don't worry about it. Go out there and knock her the fuck out. Keep her in the center of the ring." Unfortunately, the match would end sooner then anticipated, meaning Cole and Ken would get out of wearing the Pink and Yellow of the bet. A mechanical sound behind the trainer rang out, the Rocketeer Ballistae appearing with Cogs and a new mechanized companion. "Humans of Eaglemere. Thank you for gathering all in one place," Ballistae said, aiming her rocket launcher at the crowd. "This little show of strenght between two of your "champions" has made for good entertainemt so far, but now it's time for the real fun to begin. Dancelur." "Of course," Dancelur giggled, starting to dance in the ring before she held her hand out, firing a bomb that exploded into powder into the crowd, their screams dying off as their bodies melted. Tifa growled and got up, rushing forward and punching a Cog in the face, knocking its head off before she turned to Ballistae. "You fuckin' robobitch! You'r ruinin' my chance at the title!" Ballistae laughed, looking over her shoulder to see Kaitlynn running with her trainer and the others in the crowd. "Looks as if your opponent isn't as strong as she thinks," she laughed. "Forget that bitch! Your fightin' me!" Tifa snapped. Kida sighed as she looked at the others. "Tiem to go to work. Go get suited up." "About time!" Ken said, jumping to his feet. "And neither of us have to wear Pink or Yellow." "I wouldn't have minded," Cole said. "Yeah, yeah, shut up," Amara said with a smirk at the brothers. She looked at Derek. "Let's go, babe." |
