The showdown duel between Tre and Brandon continues as Toby and Jalaan watch from outside the barrier. Tre is shocked to see that Brandon felt no pain from instant karma's attacks.
Brandon- I hope you wasn't depending on instant karma to work. I'm looking forward to what else you have planned.
Jalaan- Not even instant karma can effect him.
Toby- Yeah his win condition just flew out the window.
Brandon- What's the matter are you gonna attack, or are you still strategizing? Well if you're done fighting then allow me to finish this.
Brandon swings with a right hook, but Tre was able to jump out of the way in time.
Brandon-(He' s still dodging?)
Tre-(Ok I got one more trick up my sleeve. I would've done this earlier, but I was depending on instant karma to work. And as of right now it's my only option to win this duel.)
Brandon walks towards Tre while smiling. Brandon's confidence in the fight was clear. But Tre was some what more prepared and took the offensive. He dashed directly in front of Brandon.
Brandon-(He's attacking me now?)
Tre's active showdown ability hidden strength allows him to double his stats. Which would basically give him the same boost a normal person would gain from the standard duel ability. So even tho Tre is middleweight class, he naturally has the strength of heavyweight class. However, this is just the normal function of his ability. The energy boost from hidden strength is separated into four major stats(strength, speed, durability, stamina), but Tre also can focus the energy boost into one specific stat multiplying that strength by four.
Tre throws a right punch that connects against Brandon sending him to the ground. Tre looks determined while Toby and Jalaan are shocked that he was able to knock down Brandon. Tre's facial expression changed as he hears laughing coming from Brandon. He starts to get up while his superiority aura starts grows in size.
Brandon- I gave you the opportunity to take me out, and you've failed. Looks like it's time for me to end this.
Tre-(Oh no, his next attack is gonna be lethal.)
Brandon raised his arm as his fist fully emerged in golden energy. He takes his fighting stance as his right fist glowed brighter than the rest of his body.
Toby- He's finally using his showdown ability.
Brandon's active showdown ability is inferiority. Normally it does critical damage to his opponent bringing them halfway to over exhaustion. However with superiority activated, it grants him enough energy to defeat his opponent in one blow.
Tre-(If that attack hits me I'm done for. I need to time this perfectly.)
Brandon-(He's been dodging my attacks even though I have superior speed. Well I'm even faster now so that shouldn't be a problem.)
The two stare at each other fully focused on their next move. Brandon moves so fast he disappeared from Tre's vision. However, Tre moved his head just in time to dodge Brandon's punch. Tre looks back as he realized Brandon had attacked with a left hook. Although, as soon as he turns his face is lit up by Brandon's golden energy as he gets completely rocked by Brandon causing Tre to bounce off the wall of the barrier. As Brandon begins to walk his body shakes as instant karma sent a devastating impact to Brandon's face. He smiles as it did no damage only creating a gentle breeze for him. He continues to walk towards Tre as he lays there over exhausted while bleeding. The barrier drops and the duel has ended.
BRANDON IS THE WINNER OF THE ROYAL RUMBLE
First place: Brandon
Second place: Tre
Third place: Toby
Toby- So that makes Brandon the winner.
Jalaan- As expected.
Brandon- I'll wait for you losers in the house.
Brandon walks inside as Tre starts to slowly get up.
Jalaan- I'm surprised you was able to dodge that last attack.
Tre- Yeah at the moment I was glad too. I even had to focus all my energy into speed and time it correctly in order to dodge.
Toby- But he expected it.
Tre- Cause fighting that guy sucks.
Toby using a baby voice- What's the manner, didn't have instant karma to save you this time?
Tre- Your just mad there's nothing to save you from my instant karma.
Tre starts coughing up blood, and Toby starts to laugh at him which caused Jalaan to laugh as well. Tre annoyed at first, starts to laugh along with them. The three continues to laugh as they enter the house.
The next day passes, and as of right now Toby stands on the edge of the floor a broken building looking at the sky as well as the nature around. This building is an abandoned factory that was intended to become a palace of amusement. Not just one building but multiple buildings(five or six)in one area, with each one most likely having a different theme. Unfortunately, the owner of the property had past away years ago leaving his work unfinished. Toby is currently on the third floor of the building staring out the open view towards the theater building due to the wall being mostly gone.
Tre- Working hard or hardly working?
Toby jumps back in fear as Tre showed up out of nowhere.
Toby- WHEN DID YOU GET HERE!
Tre while laughing- I just got here honestly. You said you would be going to the spot today and Brandon got curious so I told him about it.
Toby-(And here I was having a peaceful moment.) Is he here too?
Tre- Not yet, but we was talking about how it was a shame that this place never got finished. He suggested that we do something about it.
Jalaan- What is there to do?
Toby and Tre looks back in confusion as Jalaan suddenly appeared as well.
Jalaan- I like it how it is. How the natural elements infused with the industrial buildings. It's...it's...BEAUTIFUL!
Toby- Alright, alright calm down Shakespeare.
Tre- Wouldn't Davinci be a better reference?
Toby while getting annoyed- I DON'T CARE!
Tre- But seriously guys we can really make something happen to this place. Just wait till Brandon gets here I'm sure he'll convince y'all.
Jalaan- We'll see.
Toby- I don't care.
Jalaan's phone gets a notification. He checks it and smiles.
Jalaan- In the meantime we can show the guys around the spot.
Toby and Tre in confusion- The guys?
Jalaan- Yep they just got here...Jaiven and Zay.
