Graduation Finale

"Alright Natasha, I'll have my official license in a couple weeks, which means it'll be time for crime of all kinds! So, let's throw down!".

.

"Nathan what the fuck did you do?" Z asked him. He simply just smiled and said "I fought Natasha and immediately regretted it!". Their teacher walked in and said "Class, Since we are on the last few weeks, there is something I want to say.... Thank you for allowing me to be your teacher, I will truly miss all of you! With that being said, our final assignment for this year.... The team tournament!".

Mumbles were heard around the classroom and Nathan said "What's the team tournament?". Kate stares at him and says "It's a once a year tournament that all the heroes and villains attend! Teams of heroes go against each other in a huge arena, with millions of people watching!". Nathan smiles and says "Really?! So since this year is special, villains will be fighting in it too!".

*1 week later*

"Ladies and gentlemen! You all know what time it is! The tournament shall now begin! This year we've got a lot of fresh meat, so be prepared to witness some interesting match-ups!" Backstab said with the crowd cheering. Static put on a headset and said "First up, we've just gotta announce that the fights are completely random, so we've got no idea what to expect!".

Backstab and him both stuck their hands in a jar and said Static said "First teams in the ring, POINT and FEROCITY!".

.

Both teams came out, and Nathan said "Overdrive.". Overdrive looked at him and said "Jackrabbit. We won't lose to you a second time.". A horn was blown and both teams ran at each other, picking their designated targets:

Jackrabbit VS Overdrive

Smoke Hawk VS Speed Hawk

Lash-Out VS Gigamax

Superior VS Death Cap

Nightshade VS Blink

Quake VS Sharpshooter.

Jackrabbit VS Overdrive:

Nathan shot out lightning at him repeatedly, with overdrive constantly breaking it apart before it hit him. Overdrive destroyed some lightning and said "Keep trying, you'll never defeat me!". Nathan then built up as much lightning as he could, and shot it in a continued beam towards him. Overdrive held out his hands and started destroying it. "Give up overdrive, you can't win!".

It was then that something dark happened. While he was destroying the lightning, the beam started to turn dark from Overdrive's side, as if it was being corrupted. He smiled and said "I told you I wouldn't lose.". The beam then exploded sending Nathan backwards. When he looked up, he was shocked. Overdrive's hands were crackling with black energy and he said "I had my own little evolution.... Wanna see it?".

He touched a giant rock and instead of just breaking it, he turned it to dust. "It only lasts 10 minutes, but I like to call my new evolution.... Abyssal Touch. It'll let me turn whatever I touch into dust, but only for ten minutes. 2 have gone by, so 8 more minutes left to turn you to dust!". He ran towards Jackrabbit and said "Time to perish hero, for this will be your demise!".

Smoke Hawk VS Speed Hawk:

"Come on Y, you know that fighting me you'll just lose." Smoke Hawk said to her sister. Family, am I right? Speed Hawk smiled as the two both went into the air. Smoke Hawk shot smoke at her sister, but before it hit, her sister sent a punch at it, and a torrent of wind from it pushed a hole through the smoke. She smiled at Smoke Hawk and said "How do you like my new gear?".

She looked on her hands and feet to see she was wearing black finger-less gloves that had red tubes on the front designed for her silk. Her shoes were more slender for better flexibility. She released her silk and wrapped it around her sister's wrist, slamming her onto the ground. When Smoke Hawk shot at her again, she spun in midair, pushing the smoke back. "Unfortunately for you Z, I've been practicing. My gear allows me to better control the airflow around my body, in which case, your smoke can't touch me!".

"Is that so?" She said smiling. Speed Hawk looked puzzled until her sibling sped over and uppercut her. "My smoke might not touch you, but my fist can!".

Lash-Out VS Gigamax:

"Come on out little lasher, I only wish to bash your skull in a few dozen times!" Gigamax said stomping around. Lash-Out swung one of his whips at him but Gigamax caught it, using it to pull him close, punching him in the gut. Lash-Out stepped back and thought 'This brainless brute hits like a truck! I need to get him to overwork his Skill, it's my only chance!'.

He looked around until some speakers said in Static's voice: "We're 8 minutes in, time to call in our weapons crew!". 'WEAPONS?!' Both teams thought. In a quick blur, weapons were then placed in front of each member. Lash-Out looked down in front of him to see a whip, but instead of rope, it was a chain. He looked forward to see his opponent brandishing a pair of thick yellow gauntlets, as he punched his fist together.

He picked up the whip, and immediately knew what to do. He focused his power, and the chain lit up with heat, glowing live a hot piece of metal, ready to be made into a sword. He slashed his whip at him, and the brute dodged. Much to both of their surprise, it went right through a rock, as it slid in half. They looked back at each other and Lash-Out said "So, round two?".

Superior VS Death Cap:

Around Superior, Death Cap had created a mushroom forest, but instead of trees it was giant mushrooms. The weapons they were given? Death Cap had gotten a drone that would both shoot spores and release water, making the perfect environment for his shrooms. Superior instead had gotten two dual wielding swords, that were a sandy color, and had chains attaching them to the handle that let them go 15 feet.

"Of course, give the villain with mushroom powers the ability to shoot spores and make things humid! Such a good idea Static, so glad you thought of it!" Superior said dramatically. Death Cap stood on a giant mushroom and said "Hey scorpion, how well do you do without eyes?". He turned to him and spores were shot into his eyes. "AHHHHH!" He yelled rubbing them.

When he opened them, he could only see a foot ahead of him before everything went black. "Ah yes, the fly agaric mushroom. It doesn't exactly blind anyone, but it does make some nice hallucinations! His vision extended and he saw multiple Death Caps walking in a circle around him. "How will you fight against me, without knowing which one is me?!". Superior sighed and said "Simple, do what any scorpion would do. I'll use your footsteps.".

He closed his eyes and focused, but was shocked at what he could feel. Each one of them had a vibration coming from their footsteps. "Impossible, you can't clone yourself!". Death Cap laughed and said "You really haven't realized it yet, have you? You're scorpion has allowed you to have already recovered from the agaric!". He looked at him shocked as he said "I gained an evolution! After using my spores for so long, I found out that I can imbue these spores into myself.".

He closed his eyes and Superior saw his body split into two Death Caps. They both spoke at the same time saying "Introducing my new evolution, SPORE SPLIT!".

Nightshade VS Blink:

Nightshade had been given a staff, while Blink was given of hexagon shaped goggles. "You know, I hate the fact that you can't talk, it makes this fight so much more annoying!" Nightshade said going through a portal. On the speakers Static said "12 minutes in, and so much power has been revealed! Time to send in our capture drones!". A bunch of silver colored robots ran in, and surrounded the two of them.

"Each bot was designed to capture a hero or villain student, if you get caught, you're out!". Blink turned invisible and Nightshade started to destroy the bots. "I'd tell you to voice your opinion on me, but I don't think you could!" Nightshade said holding down one of the bots. 'Come on, take the bait!' She thought. Blink then ran towards her and swung her fist, but before the impact Nightshade turned around and created a portal. She went through and Nightshade pointed at some of the bots, opening one right to them. They all grabbed Blink as she turned to Nightshade.

"You've fallen for the oldest trick in the book! Now if you excuse me, I sense that a certain scorpion needs my help!".

Superior VS Death Cap:

Superior spun in a circle and swung his blades, slicing all the clones into spores. He pulled his weapons back and said "Do you think they let us keep our weapons, or do we have to return them?". He looked up to see Death Cap sitting on a mushroom while drinking tea. "Mushroom tea, you want some?". He sent his blades at him, and Death Cap dodged out of the way.

He laughed and said "Did you really think that-". A portal opened up and a blade hit his tea out of his hands. "Shut it you walking talking spore collector!" Nightshade said jumping down from a mushroom. Superior called his blades back and thought for a second. "I have and idea, just follow my lead!".

Quake VS Sharpshooter:

Quake was given a large hammer, while Sharpshooter was given a bag full of mirrors. She'd placed them in the area around her, having the light bend and bounce everywhere. "Stop hiding like a coward Sharpie! I just wanna show you what an earthquake feels like against your skull!" Quake said slamming the hammer on the ground.

She raised it up, smashing it on the ground yelling "Magnitude 6!". The ground shook as if there was an earthquake, as she looked around. "I know how your Skill works Quake! And I know you're overusing it!" She said from somewhere. When overusing the Skill, Quake becomes blind temporarily. Right now all she can see is blackness. "Well then why don't you come closer, I don't bite!".

Right now, Sharpshooter was experiencing the side effect of her Skill.... Burns. Due to having to use light as ammo, when Sharpshooter overuses her Skill, her hands will experience burns from overuse. So at the current moment, she has minor burns covering her hands. "Why don't you just stay over there, it'll make my aim easier!" She yelled from behind somewhere. When she didn't get a response, she turned the corner to see she was gone.

"Where did she-". She heard a whistle and looked up to see Smoke Hawk drop Quake onto her, knocking her unconscious. Quake looked up and said "Thanks Z!".

Jackrabbit VS Overdrive:

The two team leaders were both exhausted. They both heard a loud horn and Backstab said "TIMES UP!". 20 minutes of fighting. Overdrive glared and Jackrabbit said "Told you.". Overdrive ran at Nathan but before he got too close, Norman jumped down and used his sound to blast him back, knocking him out. "And that's why I'm top of the villain course.". He turned to Nathan and tossed him a bottle of water.

"Thanks Sound-Wave!". Norman nodded and said "Just stay ready.".
