The current location of GTB VI's second round fight. In order to avoid immediate press of the location taking place in a major city, the fighters were secretly led here after being transported here by bus. Once they were let off in the run down side of Barton, they were told to follow their GPS to their designated locations to meet their opponents, each going in a different direction, but every pair eventually ending up with their chosen partner.
The time of this roleplay can be before the fights are started or after the fights have finished. This will allow both spectators and fighters to roleplay in this location of Barton outside of fights, and acts as an optional way for anyone wanting to get into this year's story to get involved in it, as well. If your character is injured and you want to rp getting recovered, you can choose either the Infirmary thread or have the character enter into the local hospital, or maybe go off and find their own place to go heal. The sky's the limit.
This thread will be closed once the third round begins, so get in as much rp as you can until then.

Fox was the guy [sprite] standing in the background, wearing black and apparently talking to that silver-haired whore.

"You mean you'll do anything for 70 bucks?"
Fox reached his hand into his back pocket...
"Good thing I brought a condom"
"You might not want to do that."
The footfalls could be heard from fox's left. The psions feet splashed up small puddles of water made in the dilapidated city street.
"The whores here are low quality, nothing like in Sigil."
Tres spoke out to C. Fox, walking up to him with a smarmy grin on his face. The psion stopped without getting to close to Fox and the prostitute that he was conversing with.
"Been a long time. Fox..."

The silvery haired, red eyed nightwalker would flash Fox a sultry smile. Nodding at his question, she'd affirm what she'd said earlier. 70 dollars was chump change compared to what she usually brought in for a night of 'working'. But for this man, she was offering a discount.
A voice over her shoulder would cause that smile to go sour. Lips curled into a sneer, she'd shoot Tres a particularly dirty look. Perhaps he'd recognize the woman, perhaps not. Either way he could have very well ruined her fun.

That he did.
Fox turned his head
"Don't you see im busy here. Trying to get laid, man"
Fox didn't care about Sigil, cause he wasn't in Sigil at the moment. Seventy dollars sounded like a very good offer, so he was more focused on closing the deal.
"I'll talk to you later, Tres... I'll give you a call or some s**t" Fox said, which was funny because he didn't even have Tres's number. In fact, he doesnt even belive Tres has one [phone].
Then Fox turned back at the "silver-haired" woman.

_____The psion finally noticed who it was Fox was talking to. Tres could not imagine that Fox did not know who or what it was he was propositioning. Sokoya was a violent machine of consumption that the psychic warrior faced in the Heaven or Hell. Tres recognized her because what they did together could never be forgotten.
_____She was a being far more savage than Tres could ever have imagined and the trauma that Tres went through in their duel sent a shiver up his spine. Tres tossed his long black dreads out from in front of his face and over his broad shoulders before he spoke.
"Call me? Who the ******** do you think you are blowing me off like that? Surely you know who I am. I'm sure your whore does."
_____The psychic glanced at Sokoya, there was a reason that the bone queen scowled at the psion. He then looked back at Fox.
"Me and you got business, and let me tell ya, it would be way better than getting your pecker chewed off by that one. I've felt her teeth, not very comfortable.
I'll cut to the chase fox. You hit my mother with a baseball bat and we scrapped. Where even. However, you attacked Fal'lain head quarters and you left with the rest of the triads before I could kick your a** over it.
So i'm gonna give you a choice Fox. I need soldiers. You've proven yourself in battle and I need men like yourself to conduct a few operations back in the City of Doors. I'll pay you handsomely, once the operations are over.
Now the alternative is...I beat the s**t out of you.
Pretty simple right?
The offer stands for you Bone Queen but I don't feel like feeding you rock candy, so if you aren't interested you can walk."
"Me and you got business, and let me tell ya, it would be way better than getting your pecker chewed off by that one. I've felt her teeth, not very comfortable.
Fox's eyes rolled, as he let out a sigh.
"I don't care, Tre-- "

"Let me tell you something."
Fox's fists balled in response to the threat. His patience done run out, as he would violently turn to Tres, his right index finger pointing up at him, and walk towards, bumping his chest into his and overall getting up in Tres's face.
"I know you don't like me, and I SURE AS HELL don't like you! ... But if you're still treading in the ******** past, then that's your GODDAMNED problem. I live in the present; Whatever happened, HAPPENED-- So stop putting all that damn pressure on me, because I don't need it."
Fox tilted his head, looking back at Sokoya. Then he looked back at Tres
"If you don't let go (of the past) ..
Then I'm going to have to make you do so"

When fox walked towards him he squared up. However he did not immediately take any other defensive posture. The only thing that would happen is curiously flesh began to wrap around that crystalline left arm, effectively turning it into a normal limb.
The psion didn't intend to kill Fox, he simply wanted to dominate him. Tres would stand tall in Fox's face, saying nothing and letting the man speak until he was done. Then with Tres's booming deep voice he spoke calmly into Fox's face looking into his eyes.
"Your gonna make me? Well bring it on then. Punk."
Fox rolled his eyes and shook his head, turning it to Sokoya's while he took a step backwards, strutting and loosening up.
" 'Mazing... Can you believe this guy?"
Fox said to Soakz, flicking his finger up and pointing it at Tres.
A little bit of drama to set up the first attack:
Fox leapt at the wall standing to his right (as seen on OP's image/sprite) , and bounced off it by vaulting with his right foot, and using the same leg to lash out a roundhouse at Tres's head
" 'Chea ! "

_____The psions emerald green eyes went wide with delight as Fox leaped at the wall. Of course Tres could never have expected such an explosive and acrobatic attack. However despite his broken expectations he as not in danger. Instinctively as Fox's leg snapped out at his head, the psychic warrior bent his knees, leaned forward and changed levels. The kick flew narrowly over Tres's head tossing his beautiful black dreads in the wild wind of the missed attack.
_____Tres felt the wind of Fox's kick and he knew its power to be something that deserved respect. Acknowledging Fox's power his fist came up in a boxers guard to protect his feminine face as he dodged the attack. Despite being reminded of Fox's power, Tres sported the expression of a child in the ecstasy of play.
_____Immediately after the kick flew over his head Tres stepped to his left closer into the alleyway wall letting Fox pass Tres to his right. During this movement, Tres made sure to turn slightly to remain square with Fox.
_____When his opponent finally landed from his kick the pyschic warrior used his bent legs to step forward, pressing in to the outside boxing range. As soon as the psion was in range, Tres unleashed a devastating right cross to Fox's head that would come into view as soon as he completed the revolution of his round house.
_____Perhaps Fox would notice the excited grin on Tres's face that he made through clinched teeth and a sunken chin. It was rare that Tres had the opportunity to fight an opponent who could actually stand and strike with him.

Jahiro had heard this was the latest venue for the GTB. He had decided this year was to early for him, and ducked the hell out. But he'll, why not check out a few of the fights. He had left early in the morning, and was just arriving. Too easily distracted.
The red heard flung back his hair when he noticed a fight going on. Some white haired chick was the only spectator to a couple of guys just goin' at it. Roundhouse, ********' deck punch. Damn. Was this what the GTB was made of? Badasses of this sort?
Jahiro made his way over to the woman, who still sat watching. He stood, and placed his hands in his pockets, willing to start a conversation. " Yo, this'a tourney fight, er what? " He queried plainly, with an obvious drag on his voice.

wooooooooosh
His kick flew over Tres's head. It was a close one, grazing his locks and all.
-thuk!-
His feet planted on the floor, he would pivot [about] 130 degrees counter-clock, his knees slightly bent from the fall, and spring up with his own right cross, basically mirroring Tres. His target was simple: the face.
Fox would squint a little, while gritting his teeth. Fox braced himself; A natural facial reaction to an oncoming attack.
"Grrrruuuu !!!"
THWOK
Fox's eyes glowed with red, his fangs showed-- something about him was odd today.

THWOK!
_____Instinctively the psions left hand came up to stand between his face and the placement of Fox's counter blow. However, he might as well have not done it. Tres had not seen the body movements that would have telegraphed a right cross to give him time to attempt to parry it.
_____So all that happened was Tres felt the power of Fox's weighty blow as his fist collided with his left forearm close to the wrist and smashed into his face. Tres saw a white spark in his field of vision as the sudden but familiar sensation of the blows impact spread through his body from his head. His head turned with the blow and while it shook Tres, he was not rocked.
_____The psion recovered his right fist on guard and noticed something about Fox.
'Red Eyes'
_____The psychic thought. The realization that maybe Fox had developed some metahuman powers made Tres apprehensive. He also swore he saw something not quite right about Fox's toothy scowl when his punch hit. Tres began to step out of Fox's forward line of attack, moving to his left with a shuffling step. He maintained evasive head movement and his focus on fox.
[edit - realized we were already close. I shouldn't write post at work. Lol.]

Fox was simply fierce, taking a fistful to his face, but that was the point. His forearm collided onto Tres, his fist making contact with Tres's head as Tres's fist drilled into his face. His strong neck absorbed the shock, keeping the ferocious look on his face as Tres's fist eventually brushed off.
Fox didn't bring any guard up, instead, he drove his fist all the way through, putting all his weight in. It wasn't significant, it was just a manifestation of his current ferocity. He was also stunned, just like Tres, so there was no immediate retaliation/follow up from either part.
"Uogh!!!"
Fox went along with his swing, ending up somewhat hunched over, his head hiding behind his right shoulder....
GWAAAAH
((gif or img pending **best you can do is picture Jin/Kazuya's beam attack** ))
His right arm lashed out, and Fox made a violent, sudden clockwise turn at the waist, his head violently whipping to the same direction- and a huge, screaming red beam came bursting out of his forehead, exactly where a "third eye" would be located.
-zzzzzzz--sheeeeeeyunnn!!!-
The -rather- extensive laser beam lashed to his right, targeting Tres's and anything in its path in a sweeping curve.
Fox could not control it, but the attack would last 2 full seconds.

______Hunched over the psion could not see the energies that boiled within the skull of the brown skinned warrior. Tres had never seen C. Fox display any meta-human abilities and Tres had been competing in the same circuits with Fox for years. Tres respected Fox's ability to contend in the world of gods as a man, because Tres once possessed no powers and did the same. Now, one could hardly call Tres human. Sure he could transform his left arm into flesh again to experience the exhilaration of mortal combat but this was simply a novelty for the psychic warrior.
Now, things got serious.
"What?!"
_____Tres blurted out when Fox rose up with a violent sudden clockwise turn and a single beam of energy of an unknown origin erupted from his skull with a maniacal keening.
-zzzzzzz--sheeeeeeyunnn!!!
_____Sweeping from left to right, the only reason Tres was not sundered in half was because he thought to step out of Fox's forward line of attack to his left rather than right. He thought to bait Fox into a wide right hook in an attempted counter. The game changed dramatically and Tres did not know if he was ready but he acted all the same.
_____Tres dropped down and fell upon his knees while leaning backwards to his left as far as he could. Trying to get his body back and down beneath the slightly rising arc Tres threw his arms back. His right hand managed to get back first but his left was just a bit too high.
SKKKSSS
_____Flesh along a small part of his left forearm was blown away. Pieces of crystal were revealed beneath where the flesh no longer was. Tres grimaced in pain squeezing his teeth against each other and making a agonized scowl. Then his eyes went wide and anger suddenly replaced agony with all the suddenness of a lightning bolt.
_____Tres got up off the ground and returned to his stance, looking absolutely furious. However if Fox was perceptive, maybe would notice there was a little bit of embarrassment there as well. The psion did not like being deceived and because deception lied at the core of combat.
_____The psychic warrior bawled his left hand in a tight vice as if the fist were being crushed by his barely controllable fury as he brought the fist up to guard. Crystal tore through the sleeve of false flesh, violently ripping it away like some haggard rag. With Isshouken revealed, Fox would know that s**t just got real.
_____Tres stepped to his right with his right foot as if to move to the right, but it was merely footwork to mask the left low round house to the inside of Fox's lead left thigh. Tres's kicks were thrown with perfect technique and they hurt, no one could take too many of them and expect to move the same for the rest of the fight.
