"Brave or incredibly stupid?"  Giselle says as she walks by Tyger and Erizen, still haven't really gotten to liking the mercenary considering her attitude earlier.  Yuna stops long enough to bow respectfully to the girl that had managed to finish off the two headed worm quite effectively despite the extremely dangerous way she had done so before going on, a spring in her step thanks to someone's magical aid.  She hadn't seen who had cast the spells, but she wanted to thank whoever it was before they had to fight...should that happen anyway.  Approaching the mansion with the rest of the group and watching as the doors swing shut behind them once everyone clear the doorway, it's Giselle's startled gasp that alerts everyone to what's already in the room with them, or rather WHO is in the room with them.  Dozens of fighters from many different realities and planes of existences, as well as this one, populated the main hall of Helena's four floor estate.  It seemed that they weren't the only ones that had been chosen to participate in this DOA, guessing these other warriors had been waiting for Helena's final arrivals as a black afroed headed man with a katana on his right hip and a cigarette in his mouth nodded to them, along with scattered applause from many of the others that were around.<br/><br/>"Welcome, one and all to DOA.  Congratulations on making it this far."  Helena said from the second floor balcony that overlooked the room, a staircase with several guards sporting machine guns and black bulletproof armor stood so no one could easily get to their boss.  "You have all been selected to participate in by far the most fiercest and grand tournament that this establishment has every known.  Please welcome our newest and last arrivals to the Island with open arms tonight, because in the morning at dawn, the fights shall begin.  The rules are simple.  Knockouts guarantee a victory.  Accidental slaying of your opponent is acceptable but not recommended.  If you participate in a non-sanctioned DOA fight, you will be disqualified and immediately sent home to your home town, continent, and/or world should you be an Outworlder as many of you are.  When you lose and you wish to stay until the tournament is over, the rooms which have been provided for your use shall be left as they are until your departure from here.  If you feel you do not belong here or wish to return home for any reason, then I shall have arrangements made for you to leave should such a thing be required.  For now, rest and recuperate.  In the morning I will ask that the new arrivals check into the clinic for a complete routine physical and subsequent injection for vaccinations and nanotech tracking devices which will also act as translators.  More information will be given to you when the time comes.  Until then, prepare and rest.  Staff members will show you to your rooms when you're ready."  With that Helena walked away and the man that had nodded to the new arrivals locked eyes with many of the new arrivals, but he stayed focus on Giselle who narrowed her eyes to dangerous slits, unafraid of the man despite his incredibly strong presence among the crowd.<br/><br/>((Yes, Afro Samurai is among us lol.  I'll probably have more fan favorites pop up like Naruto and others of the same by popular demand of course.  For now, wander about, check into your rooms, and prepare for the fights of your lives.  The system is about to be initiated that Fenrir was so kind to give us.))
