Ace and Hela landed on a stage as two people stood across from them.

One of them was the size of the Hulk, but looked more like a dinosaur with a tail. The other was normal sized and looked human, however, most of him was mechanical.

Hela said "I got the big guy. You got the machine."

The Dinosaur looked slow but he really wasn't. He took a step and appeared in front of Ace, punching at his head instantly.

Ace blinked and Hela grabbed the fist, saying "Hey buddy, you're dealing with me." before punching him in the face, sending him flying across the stage.

Ace let out a breath and cracked his neck, "Alright, come on." as he rolled to the side, flipping his staff over.

The mechanical man was above him, firing a flurry of energy shots. Ace slapped the air, making a shield as he flew up, stabbing with his staff. The Mechanical guy side stepped, pointing a hand at Ace, his hand morphed into an energy railgun, inches from Ace's eye before he fired.

Ace tilted his head to the side as his left cheek was missing most of its flesh, singed around the wound. Ace snorted and slashed with his staff, knocking the gun away before pointing the prong end of the staff at him, a massive beam of dark purple energy blasted the guy, covering him.

Ace looked around and frowned as he was suddenly punched from the back, shooting into the stage and groaning as he looked up.

The robot guy's hand was a blade that was retracting into his arm, reverting to a hand as a slit in space mended behind him.

Ace got up as people boo'd him, muttering "Another fucking robot…" he looked up and his eyes turned dark purple, wisping to the sides. His staff turned to vambraces as the robot moved, appearing in front of him instantly.

Ace jumped back, throwing up a shield and rolling to the side, flicking his arm at the robot, slowing his movements. He lunged forward and grabbed the air, suddenly holding a ball of plasma, smashing it at the robot.

He fired at it and it exploded in his face as Ace rose from his shadow, grabbing his legs and breathing out a pillar of flames. The robot twisted in the opposite direction, bending backwards as he twisted, shooting at Ace again, who ducked into the guy's shadow, reappearing above him.

He pulled out an endless rainbow handkerchief, wrapping it around the robot's neck as he fell from the sky, swinging him into the stage. The robot stood up and Ace whipped the rope, as it burst into flames, roasting the robot, who continued moving even though he was on fire.

Ace sighed and pulled on his cloak, disappearing into nothing, reappearing behind the robot and patting his chest twice before letting out a shout.

The robot stood still, turning to him, his hands turning to energy swords as he shot towards Ace.

Ace jumped but the robot jumped as well, stabbing Ace in the stomach, cutting out. Ace grunted and grabbed the robot's face, his throat lighting up as he opened his mouth, blasting him with an extremely bright crackling purple beam.

The robot slashed at Ace wildly, hundreds of microshields appearing around Ace as he continued breathing, the color getting darker and darker before he let go.

The robot smashed into the arena and Ace pulled back with his hand, the beam curving back and spinning into a ball in his hand. He pulled it apart, forming a spear before throwing it at the robot.

The spear hit the robot and blew up into a massive explosion, blowing away the entire portion of stage that the robot was near.

He let out a breath and turned around to see Hela on her back, holding her sword in front of her with both hands as the dinosaur guy smashed down with his fists, trying to smash her to death.

Ace shouted, "Stop!" as Hela's sword shattered and he flew over, not realizing that the robot guy behind him was actually still alive!

A sword popped out of Ace's chest and he coughed up blood as the Dinosaur smashed his fists down on Hela, making her scream in pain as blood exploded from her mouth. Ace grabbed the energy sword and roared "Stop!"

While waving behind him, the Robot flashing to his front and stabbing Ace in the chest again.

Ace coughed up more blood and grunted, glaring at the robot guy in front him, his eyes flashing brightly with brilliant purple colors, the dark tones evaporating instantly as Hela cried out, getting smashed again.

Ace trembled and purple light exploded from his body as he shouted in rage "I SAID STOP!" As a purple undulation exploded from his body.

The dinosaur guy and the robot froze instantly, not understanding why.

Ace screamed and the energy swords shattered instantly, turning to dust as the robot and dinosaur slowly looked at their hands that were turning to ashes quickly, engulfing their bodies, disappearing altogether.

The crowd was silent in shock.

Yao snorted gently and smiled, "So it begins." as she stood up and left.

Ace landed on the ground and walked to Hela, stretching out his hand, asking softly "Are you okay?" the phenomena disappearing, Hela looked at him and asked in confusion "What just happened?"

Ace shook his head and frowned "I don't know." Hela looked at his hand and grabbed it, replying "Not too bad." as she pulled herself up.

Death looked at Ace before turning away as the duo disappeared from the arena.

High up in a stand separated from everyone, two people sat. One of them had blue horns on his head and leaned over to a woman, chuckling "Exciting?" The woman with red horns pouted, replying "This is so boring! Why do you have to bring me to all these things? First it was the little guy with the lightning, then the guy with the machines, then another guy with fire powers, that one guy with the space sword…"

The man's lips twitched and he started to sweat saying "Okay! I get it! Damn!" she pouted at him, saying "You have to make dinner tonight." The man nodded, "Of course, Angel…" before they disappeared entirely, nobody even seemed to notice them at all!

Ace and Hela were standing in the wasteland outside again, when the man and woman appeared in front of them!

Ace was startled and looked at the guy with blue horns, saying "Uh… Hello?" The guy gave him a thumbs up saying "Not bad, kid!" before pausing and grinning as he patted Ace's shoulder, nodding like a wise sage, adding in a strange accent "We will watch your career with great interest."

The woman crossed her arms and rolled her eyes, smiling sweetly, "You're such a cheeseball." The man turned and giggled, grabbing her hands as he retorted, "YOUR cheeseball, hehe~" the woman giggled and the duo blinked out of existence.

Hela and Ace were stunned, looking at each other, not understanding what just happened…

Yao walked over and smiled "Congratulations! Perhaps I should congratulate you twice?" The duo quickly forgot the strange event and Ace asked in confusion "Twice?" Yao smiled gently and grabbed him saying "We must speak, come." before they disappeared, leaving Hela there.

She clicked her tongue and left by herself.
