User blog:SleepyDragonSushi/The Outsiders Tournament: Part III

'''WARNING: SPOLIERS LIE AHEAD FOR ROUND ONE AND TWO. PLEASE READ THE MATCHES IN THE AFOREMENTIONED ROUNDS BEFORE READING THIS ONE.'''

Within the dark room of the Mysterious Figure

A high-pitched and maniacal laughter escaped the Mysterious Figure's mouth, echoeing all through the dimly-lit room of many monitors.

"Just perfect! 32 have entered! Yet only 8 remain! Perfect!" The figure joyfully exclaimed, waving it's elongated arms out like a magnificent monarch. The monitors around it each displayed one of the remaining participants of the malevolent tournament. From a King of a country to a purple-clad spirit, the 'Outsiders' were weary and exhausted, their previous fights having drained them of energy, though more from some and less for others.

"I have my eyes set on you all. So fight for your survival! Or face my wrath..."

A monitor set to the figure's left displayed a gallery of the remaining 8 combatants, though the Mysterious Figure didn't seem to pay it any attention.

THE REMAINING 8:

Angel, the 'Sky Blue' of the NESTS Cartel

ARIA, the Malevolent Artificial Intelligence of Ultratech

Black Panther, Avenger King of Wakanda

Gordon Freeman, Freedom Fighter of the Resistance

Princess Hinoka of Hoshido

NiGHTS, the Violet Nightmaren

Yosuke Hanamura, the Magician of the Investigation Team

Weather Report, the Imprisoned Stand-user

Suddenly the Mysterious Figure turned to face the camera, it's glowing crimson red eyes confident, as it knew that it existed.

"Oh, it's just you. My apologies. But...", It turned to face the monitor displaying the gallery, "Do not let my custom-made nicknames for these foolish beings distract you from using your heart to decide; who will win. Do not let the opinions of others sway your favour. It is YOU, who was choose who advances to the Semi-Finals. It is YOU, who will declare the Champion of this tournament..." The figure turned back to face the camera.

"And if they return to their worlds. Hmhmhm... Hahahaha, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!"

The malicious laughter of the Mysterious Figure is the last thing the camera picks up before it was destroyed.

A voice suddenly calls out to you, amidst the darkness.

"Hello? You're still there right? Who am I is irrelevant. I need you to help me identify who that' Mysterious Figure' is! It's the only way I can make sure that I'm prepared for a rescue mission! I've been trapped in a some asshole's own dimension before, and it's not the most enlightening of experiences. Which is why I'm calling out to you, whoever you are, and asking for your assistance. Will you help?"

''To help the otherworldly stranger, simply comment down below who you think the 'Mysterious Figure' is. ''

''Your choice to help out is completely up to you. Fair warning though, as your choice can affect how this tournament ends. -TheOneLegend''
