Family Feud: Cassandra Thorne VS Gai Diyos

Having watched the others fight in the tournaments before his, Gai smiled as he was thrilled to have his turn, despite having tried to get out of it when he attended the planning for the tournament. Even though the Sibikos were a distant family only connected by the brother of his great grandfather, he still felt close to them as ever as the crowd from the outside began to yell ever so clearly. As he patinetly waited on the bench in the candlelit hallway, tapping his foot impatiently for the round to commence. A female staff member wearing black uniform, threaded with dark purple strands approached him. It was the first time that Gai was able to see who was organising this tournament on behalf of Desierto. The person's belt was neatly fitted to their waist as the silver rectangular buckle reflected the images of the candles it faced. What stood out clearly from the woman's outfit however, was the badge that she worn on the left side of her chest, bearing the insignia of the kingdom's symbol in bright yellow. She held a clipboard in one hand and a pen in the other, ticking the paper as soon as she saw Gai. "Hey Mr. Diyos, I'm one of the organisers of the event. I'm here to escort you to the entrance of the platforms where you'll be fighting Ms. Thorne." She greeted, bowing her head as she smiled. Gai nodded as the two began to make their way to the entrance, leading Gai to a large room filled with wooden crates labelled with Desierto's insignia. What caught his attention however was the massive gate that prevented him from entering the arena early, towering over him as the sounds of the crowd of the arena cheered.

"Finally. Showtime." He smiled before the massive creaking of the gates flooded the room, the gate opening up to let in beams of light break into the dark room. As the light hit his face, Gai shielded his eyes before hearing what was meant to be the signal to fight, in the form of a roaring horn. The crowd become clearer as the gate opened wide and Gai was prompted to move forward and out into the arena. The sky that day was clear and bright, and the sun's gaze shone over the battlefield to where he was to fight the Atosaki member. Adrenaline rushed through his body as he studied the environment, it was something of perfection for him. 'Bodies' littered the ground as blood stained spears, shields and sword laid and stabbed the ground. Gai kneeled down to feel the green grass he stood on, noticing that it was real grass as he pulled it from the dirt. The grounds were desolate and it looked as though Gai was the only survivor the whole ordeal that had happened here, but as the gates on the other side of the area opened, he felt as though he was to be the only man standing in this field of the fallen.
