genessia | [Video - Tournament Announcement!]

[For once, Orihime is making this video NOT in the bakery, but just outside of the Genessia City Guardian's office, wearing her new silvery-lavender hoodie because yo she is on patrol.]

Good news! The new Cake Town bakery in Attleton is scheduled for September 14th, and to celebrate, we're going to have the ultimate grand opening event, with prizes and free cake!

[She holds up a fist, dark eyes flashing.]

Get ready for the Colosseum Combat Crash!!!!

[+_+]

It'll be a round robin style of tournament at the Attleton Colosseum, and I'll be gathering sponsors and prizes to aware to the competitors. The higher you finish, the sooner you get to choose from the prize rack, so first place gets first choice! Feel free to let me know if there's a certain prize you want me to add and I'll do what I can to get it there. Sponsors can donate prizes too if they'd like!

The usual rules would apply: don't kill or maim your opponent, don't go out of bounds... That's about it! I was able to rent the Colosseum for the whole day, and I'll also be on hand to heal competitors after each round so it's fair. Spectators are welcome, and there will be baked refreshments! If you'd like to sign up as a competitor, just let me know.

There's plenty of time to start training, so I hope to see you all there. Good luck!

[She bows slightly, beaming. Because why wouldn't cake and combat go together?]

*Hold on a sec - the video switches on but the camera isn't focused on anything: has someone dropped their phone in excitement?*

W-whoa! Hold up! You mean... there will be cakes and fighting at the same time?!

Yes! The energy from the carbohydrates will fuel the fighters to victory!

[Maybe. Unless they're diabetic, she supposes.]

Are you going to sign up, or watch?

Yes! That is an excellent idea!

*Selphie looks like she's thinking about it, but only for a few seconds*

Sign up! Why not?

Huuuuuh, sounds like fun! I'll throw my hat in the ring!

Yay! Please do, I look forward to seeing your super moves in action!

Heh heh heh. You're in for a treat. You get to see the number one street fighter in Japan in action.

Yay! I'm glad there seems to be so much interest, we're going to have some great matches!

That sounds like fun! Gift cards would be my prize of choice.

I'll gather some from local businesses! Is there any place in particular you like, or is it more fun to have a variety to choose from?

Oh, this sounds like fun! I don't know whether to compete or volunteer as a referee, but either way, I'll be there.

Bulla-chan should definitely compete! I'm going to ask Aizawa-sensei to referee when he comes back from the Dream Docks, since he can depower anyone who goes too far. I can cheer for you this way too!

I can't say I like the colliseum normally, but it probably is the best place for it. Besides, it'd be nice to get some experience where I'm not fighting to protect myself or others for a change.

...I hope you'll have plenty of food on hand--I can think of at least one person who will NOT turn down this kind of opportunity, and who has a huge appetite.

Leave it to me. I'll make sure no one goes hungry!

[She has a Saiyan employee and also a Saiyan confidante. She may have put this together with at least one of them in mind after all.]

Honestly I think it'll be a lot of fun. It'll be great to see all the different kinds of fighting moves.

...A tournament, you say? Interesting. I certainly can't turn this down.

Then you'd better not! We can have a representative of the Genessia City guardian department this way. Go Karla-chan!

Nothing bad will happen in the last round, right?

[Because of memories of the one tournament he was in. So he has to ask.]

Er...I don't think so! I guess I shouldn't guarantee anything recklessly, but I'm not planning for any unpleasant surprises.

What do cakes have to do with combat?

Unless it was a pie fight.

Definitely not! That would be a huge waste of good food!

[Did somebody say "tournament" and "free food"? Those are Goku's favourite words!]

All right! I'll definitely be there!

[He's grinning ear to ear, and probably talking a little louder than he should; fighting in general just gets him excited.]

Yes! Represent Cake Town with all your might!

[Yes, he looks so happy! He's one of the main reasons she decided to go for this after all, he's currently the employee with the most seniority. That deserves a reward!]

[Cause he has to go back to see what he missed.]

How are they even related?

[Sugar rush?!]

[Why do so many people ask that?]

It doesn't have to be related to be fun, ne?
