"Good lord!  The Matador is coming back with a vengeance!" the blue-haired announcer roared.

A cough was heard as the bull floated in mid-air, unable to fall due to the force of the slashes.  Blood covered his vision as his eye was slashed.  Red oozed from his mouth as a lunge was taken out.  A stinging sensation erupted through his body as the blade sunk into its hip.

The crowd roared.

"Kill it!"

"No let it suffer."

To the crowd, the bull was getting its dues.  In the end, no one can escape from karma.

Aiden:
In the Crowd

Matthew was gripping the top of the seat in front of him, his half-trained eyes pinned to the superhuman display of prowess - and the moral quandary presented by it. Matthew had known one of the previous fighters to fall before the bull, and so he remained silent. It was not his place as a warrior to judge the lives of anyone who wasn't opposite him in a fight.

That was for those fighting the battle to decide. "DO IT RIGHT!" He shouted, though his voice was drowned by the rest of the crowd. His acquaintance next to him gave him a glance.

-------------------

Zoe closed her eyes, unable to take the sight of the violent escalating to this level. And the sounds, people wanting the bull to just die like that...!

She held her hands together and began to pray for the strength to handle the outcome.

Panda:
Nanako

Nanako watched as the man darted about, wincing blades streaked through the air and sank into the bull. There was something wrong with the picture, she could already tell. Though the crowds were cheering around her, the blades weren't striking home. None of the injuries would've been immediately fatal, yet it was as if...as if that was the point.

At last, the squirrel girl moved, hands twitching a little as realization hit. The fight turned prolonged torture before the bull's second wind wasn't enough, the crowds wanted its death to be drawn out like this too? Nanako could practically feel a shell cracking, giving way around her as that numbness started to leave, the cheering crowds coming back to full volume, the thoughts and sounds she'd been trying to keep at bay washing away with something new. Something burning in her chest and through her veins, scorching them clean of the feeling that had kept her rooted in her spot for so long. She could practically feel the blood pounding in her head as fury lit in her eyes, the crowds around her fading away once more, even the plight of the defeated bull slipping away from her mind.

Nanako leaped clear of her seat, leaving sluggish sound and an even slower cloud of debris behind, straight down for the arena. With how fast the man could move, she was already sure she'd miss even before she cocked back her arm, but she didn't need precision right now. She just needed close enough.

"DORYA!" the squirrel girl roared as she fired off that monstrous punch straight for his flawless chest with all the strength she could muster.

-!

It was all so fast, too fast for human perception. The sword shattered in a thousand pieces, but it was not the bull's doing. Before his eyes could even dart to the side of the attacker, his body moved on reflex, and his arms swooped to guard from the blow. Thus, the rising sun fell down the earth like a comet.

The earth split.

For a moment, all you could see was the dust and debris. That is, until it cleared, revealing the animal laying down behind a woman. The matador was still surrounded by the dust, nowhere in sight.

Announcer

The bull fell to the ground, or what was left of it after the girl launched from the stadium.  The cheering from the crowd had stopped, the entire stadium unsure of what had happened.  One moment the bull was being ruthlessly beaten, the next a comment emerged from the stadium and smashed into the ground.

"WHAT IS GOING ON?!" the blue-haired announcer yelled, her voice echoing through the mic as she lifted herself off the ground.  "Did someone fire a missile!?  IS THIS A TERRORIST ATTACK!"

Hearing this, all of the members of the crowd got to their feet.  The thing that made this district special was that every man, woman and child was a proud warrior more than willing to put thier lives on the line for their homes.  Every single one glared at the arena, waiting to see if this attacker was man or technology.
