In a different section of the stadium, there are four square arenas arranged in a much larger square formation. These should all be considered as smaller versions of the main arena. Whoever draws slot numbers 3 and 4 will fight here. Note: If you touch a ring that you are not supposed to be fighting in, it counts as a ring-out, just as if you touched the ground or the audience stands or the roof of one of the buildings.Arrangement

Ace walked into the arena where his fight was and looked around for a second. "Well... This should be my place to fight. Just have to wait for my opponent, I guess." He dropped to the ground in a cross-legged position. "Alright...patience time."

Shiro stepped into the second arena and looked at his opponent. Never seen a guy like that before. He thought, taking in the oddly colored hair and pointed ears. He quickly undid the knot of his belt and removed it and his weighted shirt. Thing'll be useless before long. he realized as he bowed to his opponent and took the ready position.

Ace grinned, bowing in return as he adjusted his sunglasses. Standing up straight again, he cracked his neck and then lowered into a basic defensive stance. "Well met, my opponent. My name is quite a mouthful, but call me Ace if you would like to have something to call me by, as most people tend to." That said, he would just wait for whatever move Shiro might make.

Shiro grinned back. "Nice to meet you, Ace. I'm Shiro." That said, he quickly got into his own stance before dashing forward. When he neared Ace he planted his left foot in the ground and aimed a right hand punch just below his sternum, which he would follow with a left palm strike and another right punch to the face.

Ace grinned, watching Shiro. He spun on his left heel, taking a step back as he did, avoiding Shiro's first punch, and ducking under the second. Even with this dodge, he felt Shiro's third punch whisk through his hair. Too close!
Bringing his right hand forward, he fired off a ki blast toward Shiro's chest, then leapt back a few feet. "Nice moves, Shiro, very nice!" Bringing up his left hand, he started to charge ki, causing his fingertips to glow a light blue as he did so.

Shiro felt the ki blast knock him back a step and grunted. So he can use ki, huh. Just like dad, then. Better keep him close by so he can't use his range advantage, then. This time, Shiro started walking forward slowly, waiting to react to any move Ace made. But should he get just out of arm's length, Shiro would quickly dash forward again, sending another punch to Ace's stomach.

Ace watched Shiro for a moment, and waited until he was decently close. "Come on, Shiro! A little speed would make things go so much more smoothly!" That said, he would bring his left hand forward, releasing the ki in the form of a beam from each finger, aiming them at Shiro's chest and stomach. "Banshee Blast!" Given the relatively short distance between Ace and Shiro, this was quite likely to hit.
If by some chance Shiro managed to dodge this, Ace would backflip twice to put some distance between the and then drop into a defensive stance again.

Shiro might not be able to dodge the attack, but he did manage to block it. His arms came forward, parallel next to each other, all five beams impacting some point on his arms. If Ace dropped the attack quickly after that, then Shiro would simply dash forward like he had planned and send a barrage of palm strikes at Ace's chest, stomach, and face, before finishing the barage with a snap kick to his chest. If Ace maintained the attack, in a sort of one-sided beam struggle, then Shiro would step to the side afterwards, letting the rest of the beam fly past before attempting the previously mentioned combo.

Ace stopped firing when he saw Shiro block the attack. And then he sidestepped...and left an after image behind. "Whoa...never done that before..." Ace said, then grinned. "Alright!"
Ace would charge at Shiro from the side, throwing a right punch at Shiro''s head, then aiming a knee strike at his hip, to try and knock him over, and then a roundhouse at the back of his head.

Shiro passed through the after image and stumbled forward in surprise. That was... after image!? He'd only seen his father perform that before. And then, only a handful of times. Ki blasts and after images? This guy was certainly a top grade opponent. And I thought I might stand a chance.
These thoughts took Shiro about as long to think as he took turning in reaction to Ace's exclamation. His left arm went up to deflect the initial punch, then his right swung down to block the knee strike. As Ace performed his final roundhouse, Shiro ducked reached forward, trying to grab Ace's other leg and pull it out from under him before he could regain balance. If he managed this, he'd quickly turn, still holding the leg, swinging Ace around once before throwing him at the nearest arena edge.

"Gak!"
That was the sound Ace made as Shiro pulled his leg out from under him. Reacting quickly, he threw out a quick explosion. It wouldn't reach more than a few feet in radius, and wouldn't oack too much of a punch, but it would probably be surprising and at least free Ace from Shiro's grip.
If it did free him, Ace would roll sideways to his stomach, then back to his feet. He would then jump forward , landing on his hands and flipping forward, spinning on one hand so he was facing shiro and then kicking off the ground toward Shiro at top speed, both hands drawn back. When close enough, he would swing both hands hands in a chopping motion, aiming for a 'pincer' attack aimed at Shiro's neck, and would follow that up with a backflip kick.

What the hell? Shiro thought, as Ace seemed to suddenly explode. He stepped back once, before noticing that he'd let go of Ace's leg and that said person was attempting to get up. Oh, no you don't. He thought, quickly running forward. If he got there soon enough, he'd attempt to punch Ace around the time he was doing his handstand, why he was using such a flashy way of getting up Shiro didn't understand, then reach up and grab Ace's leg again, attempting to throw him over his shoulder.
If Shiro didn't manage to make it before Ace's front flip, then he'd block the two chopping attacks, but be knocked back by the flip kick. He'd roll with the force of the attack and back on his feet in a crouch, waiting for Ace's next move.

Ace pushed himself back further than he originally intended to avoid Shiro punching him in the face, and then continued with his attacks. Standing up straight after landing from his backflip kick, he grinned. Kid's a little tougher than I expected...and stronger than me, to boot... And it seems like he's got a skill advantage...a slight one, but it might be enough... Should be more fun than I expected!
As Ace was thinking this, he was not idle. He left another after image as he dashed behind Shiro, and tried to grab him by his shoulders, and then toss him toward the edge, but not off of it.

He's too fast! Shiro thought as he flew in the air, coming to a stop just short of the edge of the arena. And that stupid after image technique is just cheap. He ignored the fact that he wouldn't think like that if he could actually perform that technique, and quickly got up. I've got to even the odds a bit. He focused, taking a deep breath and letting it out, taking control of his ki.

Ace straightened up, grinning slightly. This is becoming fun... Hopefully it won't end too quickly! But I'll need to be careful to not let him beat me, that would kill my day! He watched Shiro doing...something, and crouched down slightly. He would wait for Shiro's move, his eyes starting to glow slightly with ki behind his sunglasses.

And... there! Shiro thought, grinning, before dashing forward. The sudden increase in speed would hopefully catch Ace off guard, at least long enough for Shiro's first punch, and uppercut to Ace's jaw, to land. If that first blow landed, then Shiro would adjust his footing so that one foot was just behind one of Ace's feet, then deliver another punch to Ace's chest. That way, if Ace stepped back, he'd trip. If that happened, then Shiro would then step forward and stomp on Ace's stomach.

"Guh..." Ace was caught completely off guard, feeling a sharp pain in his jaw, and he stumbled back, tripping on Shiro's foot, and ending up on his back. And then, when Shiro stomped on his stomach, "Hah...!" His breath was knocked out of him, and he did the only thing he could think of. He lunged with both legs, aiming to hit Shiro anywhere he could with his knees and just get the teen off of his stomach.

Unfortunately for Ace, one of his kicks caught Shiro in his supporting knee, causing him to stumble and fall forward. Not only did this mean that he put MORE weight on Ace's stomach, but he landed on top of Ace, with his knee striking Ace's jaw. Of course, this hurt Shiro, too, but it didn't do much to fix Ace's position. After about a second, Shiro recovered and sat up, keeping his weight on Ace's body.
Well, I've got him pinned, now to take out his arms. Shiro brought both hands up and struck down, aiming for that soft area under the shoulder where the arm connected to the torso.

"Gak!"
Ace coughed, trying to catch his breath as quickly as possible, and while Shiro was sitting up, Ace would flail his arms around wildly, possibly causing Shiro to at least hesitate for a half second or so with his attack to Ace's shoulders, and then Ace would throw his arms out to his sides, and release another short-range explosion, though this one he expended a little more ki on, so it would pack a decent punch.

"Wah!" Shiro fell back, pushed up by the blast, and landing a couple of feet away. He flipped to his feet almost instantly and dashed forward again. His boost was about to wear off, and he needed to keep his advantage. How he attacked would depend on whether Ace was on his feet when Shiro approached him or not. If he was, then Shiro would release a series of rapid, hard to dodge palm strikes, focused around the head, chest, and arms, which would be followed by a snap kick to Ace's chest.
If, however, Ace was still on the ground, Shiro would leap up and try to stomp on him again. Only this time he would be aiming for Ace's knees.

Ace had jumped up to his feet immediately after Shiro was knocked off of him, and then immediately shot a blast of eye lasers at him as Shiro rushed at him, and then rushed at Shiro himself, his right hand drawn back. This needs to get finished up... I'm beginning to tire out here...
Once close enough, he threw a right hook at Shiro's temple, then swung his left hand up for a palm strike aimed at Shiro's throat, and would finish it by an upward crescent kick at Shiro's chin.

Explosions, ki blasts, and heat beam eyes? Bloody hell, this guy's military grade! The beams had hit Shiro just above his own eyes, forming two bloody burns to add to the several other injuries he had. The attack had stopped his charge, so he was standing still when Ace reached him. He ducked under the first attack, blocked the second, hissing as the attack hit his burned arms, and felt his head snap up when the kick landed. He stepped back, but kept his senses enough to try and catch Ace's leg before it fell, and use it to once more attempt to throw Ace out of the arena.

When Ace felt Shiro grab his leg, he jerked it down with all of his strength. He was by no means an even match for Shiro in terms of strength, but with his dazed state, Ace should at least be able to jerk his leg free or perhaps topple Shiro off balance if his grip was strong enough. Either way, he would use his other leg for a straight kick at Shiro's chest.
Man, this fight has been the best one i've had in a few years! I'm getting pretty tired here... He's probably in a little better shapre...but he can't be doing all that much better. Heh...even if I lose, it won't matter!

Ace managed to get his leg out of Shiro's grasp, and Shiro quickly switched his arms up to block Ace's kick. My arms are gonna rebel if I block one more attack, he guessed, pushing at Ace to try and unbalance him for a second. He followed this by feinting a right punch to the face, instead delivering a left palm to Ace's stomach first, then the punch, followed by a relentless barrage of punches, all aimed for the face. If I can't throw him out, then I'll just drop him! I just hope I have enough time to do either one.

Ace was sent stumbling back when Shiro pushed him, and he made to dodge the feint, which led him to taking a palm to the stomach. "Oof...again with the stomach..." he mumbled. And then he felt first one punch, and then a barrage of fists rain into his face. "Gah...oof...ack..."
He brught his right arm up, and managed to catch one of Shiro's by the wrist. This was quite a feat, considering his vision was beginning to blur slightly. He tried to grab Shiro's other wrist, and if he could manage it, he would throw a kick at the teen's stomach, and then spin around, aiming to hammer toss him out of the ring.

Shiro stopped the punches when Ace grabbed his arm. He pulled back on his arm, trying to break Ace's grip and knock him off balance, then kneed him in the stomach, followed by another punch almost right where the knee had it. Gotta end it soon...

Ace would let Shiro's arm go as soon as he felt him pull back, and then step back out of Shiro's immediate range. "This has been fun..." he said, a grin forming on his lips. And then he lunged at Shiro, throwing an uppercut at Shiro's chin, and then launching into a barrage of punches aimed at Shiro's stomach, chest, and face, and finish it all off by dashing behind him, leaving another after image, and throwing a roundhouse kick at his spine, aiming to send him flying toward the edge and maybe slide right over it.

Shiro would have responded, had he had the breath. Or the time between Ace speaking and Ace attacking to do much more than sidestep the first punch. He deflected many of the following attacks similarly, though some of the strikes to his chest managed to land. The kick, however, caught him completely off guard, and indeed, sent him flying across the arena. He landed and started rolling, managing to stop himself just before the edge. I'm not about to lose because of a ring out! he told himself, quickly getting up to give Ace as little chance to attack him when he was on the ground as possible. If Ace wasn't already on his way towards him, then Shiro would take a couple steps away from the edge, then stop and catch his breath. Otherwise, he'd wait where he was.

Ace would slowly walk toward Shiro, breathing heavily, and bleeding somewhat from a wound above one of his eyes. He cracked his knuckles as he approached. He would bring his right fist up, ready to throw a punch, while he formed a ball of ki in his left one. "Heh... Good match, Shiro... But I have a feeling its about to end, one way or the other, very shortly."
