It was that time of year again in Big City: tournament season.  Never mind that it lasted 11 months of every year, it was still quite a lull for that off-season month.<br/><br/>The streets were packed with people coming into Big City, and the sidewalks were packed with people standing in line to sign up for the different tournaments.  Not that anyone was really interested in being the Wakatsuki Market Sunday Afternoon Champion (where Big Mike Mitsuhama was defending his title from Saturday Evening), but you had to be the winner of some official tournament in order to qualify for the Real Official Big City Tournament Which Isn't Fixed This Year, We Swear*.<br/><br/>Which is where five certain young hopefuls come in....<br/><br/>*The title was originally just the Big City Tournament, until a competing stadium tried to start a second one (adding Official).  Then a group of criminals staged a fake one (adding Real).  Then another group rigged the tournament (adding Which Isn't Fixed), and then again a few years later (adding This Year), and one last time ten years ago (adding , We Swear).<br/><br/>(OOC: Explore the town if you like, interact with various things, and pick out a tournament to enter, which is just an excuse to give everyone a sample fight.)
