Her Power-Up might have gone off. I reached out for a Power-Up Bubble from my pocket.
*Swoosh*
*Ching*
Tina moved to me in a blur, kicking my arm, the hit made a sound, making a very strong impact, like Mateo's. My arm flew, throwing the Power-Up Bubble away to the right. I chased after the Power-Up Bubble. Tina put her feet in front of my leg, tripping me over. I fell to the dirt thick ground, landing with a hard thud.
I raised my hand to reach for the Power-Up Bubble. Tina approached and kicked it. Her feet just phased through the Power-Up Bubble, hah! You did not learn! Only I can touch my Power-Up Bubble! I tried to reach for it again. Tina stomped on my arm.
I reached for it with my other arm, Tina also stomped on it. I pulled my arms to make her trip and fell over. She landed on the ground with her hands, carrying herself and landed on her feet. I stood up and ran towards my Power-Up Bubble, Tina kicked me on the face, her shadow mimicked.
I swung my right arm at her face, she swayed her head backwards making me miss. We started exchanging and swinging hits at each other. I swung a punch with my left arm at her, she hit it with her right arm away. She gave hits on the face, I dodged the incoming fist and kicked her on the leg.
She swung her right fist at me, I grabbed it on time and tried a counter-attacked but she used her left arm to hit me on the face. We continued exchanging and dodging and blocking each other's attacks. We made a distance.
"1"
*Ching*
"2"
*Ching*
She started counting down again, dancing, moving and swaying her legs around. A yellow color glowed on her leg. Each count made it glow bigger and brighter. I am not letting this happen again. I dashed towards her and swung my right arm at her.
She suddenly crouched down to my right, going behind me and kicked my back.
"1"
*Ching*
"2"
*Ching*
She started chanting again, how can I counter this!? I went to her again and swung my left arm at her. She suddenly dropped herself down to the ground. She landed both of her hands and kicked me below my neck with both of her feet. I turned around and stumbled, she swiftly went in front of me and kicked me on the stomach.
I flew and landed on the ground. I hastily raised my arm above me, took the Power-Up Bubble and swallowed it. Hmph, it is according to plan, I could see the irritation on Tina's face. An armor came out of my body, not good but still works.
I stood up, the armor is heavy. This Power-Up is so stupid it will only go out in 10 seconds, it even makes me sluggish. I can activate or deactivate it if I want. During my fight with Mateo, traumatized me, hitting me on the neck, making me go to sleep.
She started chanting numbers again, rhyming to the moves of her legs. I activated my helmet and ran up to Tina, making clanking sounds. I swung my left arm at her, she dodged again going below my left.
*Ching*
*Thunk*
Tina kicked my back, I did not budge because of the heaviness of my armor. I turned hastily and grabbed her leg and kicked her standing leg. She leaped her stranding leg, spinned and kicked me on the face with a hard impact.
*Ching*
The kick made a ching sound just like the sound when she chants and kicks. I stumbled back, the helmet can be a pain sometimes mostly when a strong impact hits the helmet. I stumbled back after the hit and the traitorous backlash of the helmet.
"1"
*Ching*
"2"
*Ching*
This the move players fear from Tina in Vere Fighters. if she reached her sixth chant, that is a one-shot hit as a punishment for the opponent for letting her chant that far. I regained my consciousness and ran up to her.
*Chakek*
My Armor has gone off, going inside me. She suddenly jumped up at me, putting both of her legs on my neck, like scissors about to cut my money. She hangs herself, she puts her hands on the ground then carries me, then throws me to the ground.
"You can still fight?" Tina asked
I stood up, barely
"Yes" I replied
She continued dancing, swaying her legs. Does she really have that much stamina? I took my reserved Power-Up Bubble from my pocket secretly and swallowed it.
*Glititit*
I got Shadow Shroud. I leaped forward to her leg, caught her leg and pulled her upwards, making her fall to the ground.
"Looks like I am going to use it this time" Tina said, smiling after landing on the ground
If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.
Suddenly, a blue thing came out of her, just like mine when activating my Mini-Game. I spread around, reaching the audience. It went up, forming a dome. My Shadow Shroud has gone away, shit, what is this and what is happening! I didn't even realize Tina is already standing in front of me, being jolly again.
My group and her group continued chanting and shouting our names, supporting us .
"Are you ready?" Tina asked
"What is happening? And what is this?" I asked
"It's just like your Mini-Games but dancing"
Dancing!? I love dancing
"Get Ready!" An announcer said
"Do you think you can keep up?" Tina asked, stretching
"Even if I am a gamer, we can also do dancing. You know, playing at the arcade?" I replied, also stretching
"2"
I took deep breaths, regaining my stamina.
"Hey, when everytime you activate this Mini-Game of yours, does the song randomize?' I asked Tina
"Yep so don't worry about me being unfair. Even songs I don't know, they show up" Tina replied
"1"
My heart is beating fast, it felt like a real worldwide competition.
"Dance!"
An upward arrow moves to us at very high speed, Tina and I step on it. We were both in a separate area, having our own stage.
"Nice one" Tina complimented me
"Thanks"
This scene gives me de javu. I think when Mateo and I played that very hard song from a dance machine from the Arcade at the Mall. A theme started rising, colors started to rise. Arrows started coming towards us, following the beat of the song.
Lyric started showing up, lyrics of a person singing. Colorful lyrics, colorful environment, Tina and I danced gracefully. Stepping on the incoming arrows, executing it. Each step made sounds, each execution of step changed the environment colors, people around us cheered.
I focused on the incoming arrows, neither of us missed a step. There is a score on top of us, rising. The song felt like it is about to end. Both of us had the same score. We executed the last arrow.
"Tie!" The announcer said
The blue area started to deposit back to Tina. My legs are aching after the dance but Tina still looks like she is in good condition and energetic.
"Whoever wins will get a reward?" I asked
"Yes, just like yours" she replied
She moved to me, then went to the ground and kicked me on the leg. I fell to the ground easily, damn, my legs are so weak after the dance.
"Looks like someone's legs are weak"
I turned my body and put both of my legs between her legs and spread my legs, making her split. She splitted to the ground, shit, she is flexible. She swung her arm towards my stomach. I dodged it by turning myself and kicked him on the top of his head.
*Pop*
Tina rubbed her head. A Power-Up Bubble came out, I kicked it upwards and lower body upwards and put my feet on the Power-Up Bubble, making my leg and body as a bridge for the Power-up Bubble. It travelled to my leg, to my upper body, and rolled to my mouth, swallowing it.
*Glitit*
I got 30 percent strength. I lowered my abdomen and kicked Tina on the face. I rolled and stood up. My leg is giving up on me after the dance, damn. I didn't feel my leg and started to kneel but I still fought and stood up.
"3"
*Ching*
"4"
*Ching*
I am not letting her stack. I activated my Mini-Game ability, blue came out of my feet, going wide around us.
"Si- wait what?"
The yellow light on Tina's leg is gone. The blue spread around the audience and made a dome.
"So, what game are we playing this time? A running thing game again?" Tina asked
"Only one way to find out" I replied
My Power-Up may be a waste but I am not going to let her gain her 6th chant. Her chants hurts plus her shadow mimicks. Suddenly, Tina teleported in front of me, opposite side of me.
In the ground made a volleyball court, with lines around.
"Ooooh, volleyball!?" Tina said
I HATE VOLLEYBALL! Our groups are in big bleachers, sitting and cheering for us, shouting our name. Some oval shape formed on Tina's hand. It is a Dodgeball ball. HA! IT'S A FAVORITE GAME OF BOYS!
"Dodgeball? Really? Next time, I hope it is a Volleyball Arinet" Tina said to me
"The match starts at 3!" An announcer announced
Tina and I readied
"2"
She raised the ball, ready to throw it at me. I calculated where to go. Maybe left or right? Just be ready to dodge.
"1..... Dodge!"
*SssssswwwoooooOOOOSSSSHHHH*
Tina threw the ball at me, I dodged it by rolling to the right.
*zzziiiiIIIIINNGGG*
The ball disappeared after going outside of the arena and the ball teleported to my hand. I threw it to Tina with all my strength, travelling at high speed. Tina dodged it by crouching, some of her hair flew backwards.
The ball disappeared and teleported to Tina's hand. She readied her self, I ran around to make her dizzy.
*Slip*
Huh!?
*Smack*
Oooowwww! Tina threw the ball to my face. Fuck! I slipped to this slippy court because of my high quality shoes, and distracting my stance making it easy for me to hit! Damn! That ball hurts!
"1 point for Tina!"
"Yaaay, one point for me!" Tina celebrated
We need 3 points until one of us wins, giving a chance for a comeback. I stood up, I looked at the top of us, there are big red numbers.
*0:1*
*zzziiiiIIIIINNGGG*
The ball spawned on my hand, I readied myself. I focused, trying to predict where she will go.
"3... 2.... 1... Dodge!"
Tina stayed still, I raised the ball. She suddenly went to the right, I threw it. She knelt lowered her body more to the right, dodging it. The ball teleported to her hand and threw it at me. I dodged it be jumping and rolled myself like a screwdriver.
I landed and readied myself, the ball teleported to my hand and threw it at her. She wasn't ready to move after throwing the ball at me. She looked at the ball in horror. The ball travelled and hit her stomach. She glided backwards, the ball still on her stomach.
"1 point for Arinet"
"Nice one Arinet, but this time, I learned from my mistakes" Tina said
Ha! I am going to win! My group is cheering for me. Tina's group is cheering for her. The ball teleports back to Tina's hand. She smirked, she readied her stance. I kept my eye on her, trying predicting her next move.
"3... 2... 1... Dodge!"
Tina shifts quickly left, then right, trying to fake me out. She throws the ball low and fast towards my knees, aiming to trip me up. I manage to leap over it just in time, narrowly avoiding the hit, and the ball vanishes only to reappear in my hand.
I took a deep breath and focused, I steadied my aim. I launched the ball toward her with a curveball spin, hoping to catch her off guard. Tina dashes left, but the ball curves toward her direction. She spins and dives to avoid it, just barely missing her.
Fuck fuck fuck fuck! She is too good at dodging and her keen eyes. We started throwing the ball at each other, smiling each other menacingly, hoping to get a score. The ball appeared on Tina's hand. She threw it towards me, I jumped back.
*Thud*
The ball hit my shoulder with a very strong impact. Damn!
"1 point for Tina!"
The crowd cheers, Tina gives a playful wink, clearly loving the challenge. She waved her hand around, She faced Mateo and gave her the Tina pose from Vere Fighters. Mateo started shouting and cheering.
My turn! The ball appeared on my hand. I hold the ball tightly. Without a warning, I go for a low, fast throw. Tina tries to sidestep but miscalculates, the ball hits her hand.
"1 point for Arinet, one more point for the win!"
It's 2:2 now, I should win and I will get a strong powerful Power-Up Bubble. The ball appeared on Tina's hand. Tina raises the ball, her eyes locked on me with a determined smile.
"3... 2... 1... Dodge!"
I took a few slow steps to the right, keeping steady, waiting for her to move. Tina sidesteps, I sprinted toward the left, keeping my stance low. Tina sees what I was doing, and instantly copied my moves.
She threw it to me, I dodged below. The ball appeared on my hand. I continued moving, my arm raised and ready for a throw. But just as she tried for a dodge, I suddenly stops, taking a step back to regain my balance.
Tina caught off guard. She stumbles slightly, thrown off by my quick reversal. She's frozen mid-movement.
Without hesitation, I hurl the ball low and fast, aiming just as she tries to readjust. Tina sees it coming but can't react in time. The ball hits her square on the side of her leg, and she stumbles back, surprised.
"Final point, Arinet wins!"
"WwoooooOOOOOOO!!" I celebrated
The blue dome deposited back inside me. A blue gift popped up in front of my face, landing on my hands. Tina is breathing heavily, both of her hands on both of her knees. If she is really tired, then this is the time to swallowed this and beat Tina! I swallowed it.
"Haaah! You fell to act" Tina said
Wait what!? A blue color came out of her feet, going wide around us. No! Shit!
*Glititit*
What did I get!? Increase of vitality, defense, and speed!? NOOOOOOOOOOOO! My abilities disappeared.
"Ready for another dance game Arinet?"
"No, FUCKING NO!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am laying on the dirt ground,taking deep breaths. This time, my legs gave up on me. I really enjoyed that song and the dance but really, her dance Mini-Game-like ability felt like 8 minutes to finish.
"1"
*Ching*
"2"
*Ching*
"Don't just lay down there, we still have a fight... 3"
*Ching*
"HAAAAA! NO, I GAVE UP!" I shouted
"Are you sure?"
"Yes!"
"One last time.... Are you really really really sure!"
"Yes yes yes! I am very really sure!"
The referee came forward to the middle.
"And the winner iiiiiIIIIIIIISSSSSSS!!!! Tina Feliiiiizzzz!!!!! 1 point for the Allen's University Private School!"
Tina started celebrating
"TIIIIINNAAAAAAAA!" someone shouted
It is Mateo, his pupils are pinkinsh heart, pink tiny hearts coming out of him, popping.
"Oh my! Heart-Eyed Cosplayer! Oh he looks good and cute with hearts on his pupils and tiny hearts coming out of him! Oh I got to take a picture with him!!!!" I can hear Tina whispering to her self
She ran up to Mateo with her phone ready and started taking pictures with Mateo. Out healer came to me and kneeled to the ground to me. She put her hand in my chest.
"Great fight Arinet" our healer, Amara said to me while green light glowed on her hand
"Thanks" I replied
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THERE IS NO WAY I AM HAVING A PICTURE WITH TINA! MY IDOL FIGHTER! AND EVEN HAVING A SIGNATURE! I took off my clothes and have a permanent pen signature on my chest. Tina smiled and signed my chest.
"Don't worry, you are going to get it. Tina Tinaaaaaa smile!" She gave me wink doing a peace sign with her finger
There is really really really no way I've seen this up close. She started picturing me multiple times and started to walk back to her team. I put on my clothes again, I looked at my arm, tine hearts floating up from my arm and pop.
"Uhhhh, mmmm, Mateo?" A voice of a girl and a hand touched my shoulder
I looked behind. It is Luna, smiling... Emitting a very dark scary aura.
Shit
