WAY BACK IN RIM CITY,

PARK(KNOCKS THE DOOR): FREED COME ON, OPEN THE DOOR!

FREED (ON THE OTHER SIDE): GO AWAY! I DON’T WANT TO HURT YOU.

THIS WAS THE DAY WHEN FREED’S POWER FIRST MANIFESTED.

PARK: IT’S ALRIGHT! ALL YOU DID WAS MESS UP THEIR FENCE, YOU HAVE

DONE WAY WORSE HAVEN’T YOU?

FREED (ON THE OTHER SIDE): YES BUT THAT WASN’T ME………… I DON’T KNOW WHAT’S HAPPENING…

PARK: NOTHING’S HAPPENING! IT FEELS LIKE THAT IN FIRST!, IT DID TO ME TOO ……………. NOW YOU FELL LIKE YOU’RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A VAST ENDLESS OCEAN, LOST AND NOWHERE TO GO, BUT JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES AND PULL YOURSELF BACK….. SLOWLY SLOWLY…..

IN THE STAGE...

ANNOUNCER: THE QUARTERFINALS HAS BEGUN FOLKS AND NOW AS WE CAN SEE

FREED HAS CHARGED AT HIS BROTHER TO TAKE HIM DOWN(SHOWS A THUMBS UP)...I LIKE HIM...

FREED CREATES TWO ORBS OF CONDENSED AIR IN HIS HANDS AND LASHES OUT AT HIS BROTHER. PARK QUICKLY FLIPS AROUND AND DODGES BOTH THE ORBS. THE ORBS HIT THE STAGE AND crack SOME PART OF IT. PARK QUICKLY AIMS A KICK AT FREED BUT IS BLOCKED BY THE ARMS THAT FREED HAD JUST BROUGHT FORTH. YET HE GETS PUSHED BACK. FREED THEN HOVERS TONS OF SMALL PEBBLES FORMED IN THE CRACK AND HURLS IT AT PARK

PARK(GIVES OFF A FAINT SMILE)

IN AN INSTANT PARK LEAPS BEYOND ALL THAT AND APPEARS BEFORE FREED TO SMACK HIM STRAIGHT IN

THE FACE. THIS HURLS FREED NEARLY TOO THE EDGE OF THE STAGE.

ANNOUNCER: NOW THAT’S A CLOSE ONE!!

FREED THINKING TO HIMSELF: DAMN IT, HE CAN PREDICT MY ATTACKS SO EASILY, AND HAS GOTTEN PRETTY STRONG IN THIS FOUR MONTHS. I MUST TRY SOMETHING NEW.

FREED: ALRIGHT BROTHER THE REAL GAME STARTS NOW.

PARK(SMILES): ALRIGHT LETS GO!

FREED(BRINGS BOTH OF HIS HANDS CLOSER) (YELLS): HAAAH!!

A SMALL AMOUNT OF ENERGY GATHERS IN BETWEEN HIS HANDS.

IN THE AUDIENCE SEAT

GURREN: AGAIN? DID YOU TEACH THAT KID ANYTHING ELSE?

HIMAL(ANNOYED): HEY! I TAUGHT THAT KID MANY THINGS, IT’S NOT MY FAULT HE ONLY DOES THAT…..

IN THE STAGE...

PARK: THAT TECHNIQUE AGAIN HUH? (YELLS) I won't LET YOU!! (JUMPS UP AND KICKS ONE OF FREED’S ARMS)

THIS ENERGY GATHERED IN FREED’S HAND DISAPPEARS. FREED WAVES HIS HANDS TO SEND RIPPLES OF AIR AT PARK WHICH PUSHES PARK BACK, AND IN THAT TIME FREED TOO FALLS BACK AND BRINGS HIS HANDS CLOSER. THE AURA IN BETWEEN HIS PALMS START TO GROW AGAIN. PARK RELENTLESSLY ATTACKS FREED AND DISRUPTS THE PROCESS MANY TIMES. FREED CONTINUES TO FALL BACK

IN THE AUDIENCE SEAT

HIMAL: DAMN IT KID WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

COMMANDER(TAUNTING HIMAL): HAHA WAS YOUR TRAINING NOT ENOUGH?

IN THE STAGE

ONCE AGAIN PARK KICKS FREED RIGHT ARM. IN THE SAME TIME MAKES A SMALL BALL OF AIR IN HIS LEFT AND TRIES TO POUND PARK WITH IT. BUT PARK JUMPS HIGH IN THE AIR AND AVOIDS IT BUT TO HIS SURPRISE! FREED INSTANTANEOUSLY CONVERTS THE AIR ORB INTO AND AIR BULLET AND FIRES IT AT THE GROUND WHICH PROPELS HIM UP IN THE AIR. HE RISES FAST EVEN FASTER THAT PARK, AND JUST LIKE THAT APPEARS BEHIND PARK.

ANNOUNCER: WHAT A SPECTACLE!

FREED(YELLS)(BRINGS HIS HANDS NEAR TO EACH OTHER): TAKE THIS!! (MASSIVE AMOUNT OF ENERGY GATHERS IN AN INSTANT)

PARK (SHOCKED)

FREED THINKING TO HIMSELF: THAT’S RIGHT YOU THOUGHT YOU DESTROYED ALL OF MY PREVIOUS ENERGY BUILDUP DIDN’T YOU? BUT NO I’VE BEEN STORING IT.

IN THE AUDIENCE SEAT

HIMAL: HAHA! THAT’S RIGHT LOOKS LIKE YOUR TRAINING WASN’T ENOUGH!! HUH, CAPTAIN!!!

GURREN: IN MID AIR….

IN THE STAGE

FREED(YELLS): GOD’S HEAVENLY BREATH!!!!!

HE FIRES A MASSIVE RED BEAM DOWN RIGHT AT PARK.

ANNOUNCER: BEAUTIFUL!! JUST BEAUTIFUL!!

PARK (AS THE BEAM APPROACHES)THINKING TO HIMSELF: THE OCEAN WAS JUST NOT VAST ENOUGH HUH? (SMILES)

BUT SUDDENLY, IN MID AIR! WITH NO SUPPORT!! WITH NOT FOOTING!! PARK MANAGED TO FLIP HIS ENTIRE BODY SUCH THAT IT JUST MANAGED TO EVADE THE BEAM. THE BEAM WENT ON TO STRIKE THE FORCEFIELD JUST AS IT HAD DONE EARLIER.

IN THE AUDIENCE SEAT

GURREN(SHOCKED): DID HE?

COMMANDER: YES! IN FACT, THIS BOY IS SPECIAL, IN JUST FOUR MONTHS JUST FOUR, HE DID SOMETHING THAT EVEN MOST VETERANS TAKE YEARS TO LEARN!

HIMAL(SHOCKED): ADOMA! ART OF MOVING YOUR MUSCLES IN SUCH A WAY THAT YOU HAVE PERFECT CONTROL OF YOUR BODY. DID HE MASTER ALL OF IT?

COMMANDER: NOT YET! BUT IT’S A MATTER OF TIME. I SENSE FAR GREATER POWER IN THIS KID.

IN THE STAGE

ANNOUNCER: WOW!!!! PARK JUST FLIPPED IN MIDAIR AND HURLED FREED DOWN!
