Horizon Atlantica

Chapter Four - The Grand Tournament

Chapter Four - The Grand Tournament

Jul 16, 2017

Dawn had come, Seraphine was first to wake up and quickly went to the arena.

There she put on her skin-suit and afterwards equipped the safety-armor.

Since she isn't supposed to be in this tournament she kept on her helmet at all times.

The moment she entered the hangar someone called out to Seraphine.

Seraphine : "First things first, I have to prepare my Knight."

Tournament coordinator : "Excuse me? Would you like us to help prepare your Knight?"

Seraphine : "That would be kind, thank you."

Quickly engineers came to check the Knight, nothing appeared to be wrong.

So they only made some quick fixes, like doing an activation reset and calibrating it with Seraphine.

During calibration she had to use the controls to move the arms, legs and the head.

The weapons are tested in a simulation, Seraphine only uses the standard issue rifle and sword so there wasn't too much trouble with that.

As soon as the calibration had finished Wolf entered the hangar where every Knight was being prepared.

Wolf was wearing his battle-suit and had his Dragon Knight prepared beforehand, soon after his arrival the other competitors entered and started to prepare.

The tournament wasn't until the afternoon but you could feel the pressure rising, everyone was on edge. As if a war was about to begin and it did, some of the more aggressive contestant made a ruckus. Luckily there were guards nearby to help!

Time passed swiftly, before anyone realized the arena was filled with people. The tournament starts and Wolf was first up.

His opponent liked giving a show and tried to impress the crowd, however Wolf's Dragon Knight was far more of an eye catcher. As soon as the bell rang, Wolf rushed into his opponent crushing the head as if it was nothing more but a small rock!

Falling down his opponent screamed as if he had seen a ghost, he had passed out and medics had to retrieve him and his unit.

And so the tournament went on, every battle Wolf was in went similarly. However for Seraphine the competition was real! Every fight she came out on top, but she was exhausted every single time. Until she had to go up against Fabian, Wolf's wing-man.

He had defeated her with ease, so in the finale it ended up being Wolf against Fabian.

They fought bravely and with no bars held, when they both took great damage Wolf's Knight started failing. It was at that moment Fabian decided to attack, he couldn't have made a worse choice!

Right before Fabian's sword was going to hit Wolf the black cloud appeared and when it dispersed Wolf was gone.

Behind Fabian was the Jet Black Knight!

Seraphine whispered to herself "Bahamuth! No, this shouldn't be happening!"

Bahamuth attacked Fabian, but it wasn't just any attack. It was a lethal blow right through the chest/cockpit. Blood sprayed through the air as the sword pierced the chest!

When Bahamuth pulled back it's sword the remaining blood dripped off of the blade and Fabian's Knight fell to the ground. There was no explosion, just a deadly silence.

After Fabian death, Bahamuth hadn't disappeared. Seraphine feared that it was still enraged and it was!

Bahamuth drew his second sword and took a fearful stance, as if it was about to kill everyone in the arena.

Seraphine called out "WYVERN!"

Suddenly a white ice-like cloud appeared and the White Knight formed around her. As soon as Wyvern had finished forming and the could began dispersing, she charged at Bahamuth and even broke the sound barrier!
