| [atrb=style, background: #111111; border: 5px solid #99983E; border-radius: 10px; opacity: 0.8;] While he wasn't even sure what happened to his chain attack, the opponent had continued his attack after the punch. Runes started to appear, "what kind of wizard are you?" He asked in a bit of a hastened voice while trying to move his legs quick as they landed on the ground. As he was already falling, he pushed himself with as much strength as he could muster with a bend leg to propel himself backward and try rolling backwards away from the runes before flames erupted from the runes.
Seeing the flames was as a tidal wave at him, he held his arms crossed again with his right arm over his left for the Ogre to be held in a better position. He still sat half-crouched to the ground as he tried to stabilize himself in such a position from the flames as he felt them scorch through his body. Grand...
As he looked ahead, the Heartless saw Zidane right in front of him as he had charged. The opponent pulled his arm forward, the Heartless expected either to reach try and push him before trying to snatch for his weapon, but suddenly he performed an acrobatic feat that surprised the Heartless as the weapon he had taken from his opponent was gone.
However, his eyes stayed locked on Zidane as he slid away and Darkness surrounded his right arm already again as another weapon took the Ogre's place. The swirls of Darkness formed into a smaller sword than the greatsword he normally pulled out. The chain had vanished from his left hand as he had started the pursue, vanishing into dark smoke. He now held a Broadsword in his hands. Feeling the lighter blade did make the Heartless feel somewhat strange, but it went away as Darkness started to cover his body and the speed behind his pursue increased.
His mind trailed off and his strength increased while the wounds covering his body became less noticed and his entire skin had darkened while his eyes shined brighter. Berserk had become active again as the Heartless swung his sword at the boy's torso in a horizontal strike from his left to his right, as if trying to cleave the opponent in two.
Actions [1] Dodged the start of the Tidal Flame, but still hit by the flames after. [2] Created the Broadsword and activated Berserk to try and hit Zidane in pursuit with a Berserk-strengthened strike. [3] N/A

Jovial Prince of Thieves Zidane faced his opponent, The Ogre back in its rightful owner's hands. The pink-furred fellow was panting from the action. He was slowly healing from the minor damage throughout his body and felt his muscles tightening from the strain of Trance. He knew he would soon fall from his state. His furred hands gripped to the hilt of the blade as he got a feel for it being back in his hands. It was a harsh move but he would have to do it! He had no choice.
He watched as Whatever summoned his blade and began his faux-Trance once more. That look, it was in his eyes again. This was not going to be good. The thief broke The Ogre and reverted them to a pair of Mage mashers, which would increase his maneuverability in combat. The more clunky, combined form, left much to be appreciated of his twins blades. With the mage masher gripped in each hand and the mad hunter charged, the boy prepared himself. It was risky, but it would ensure a direct hit before his Trance fell.
"Hoooouah!" Zidane braced himself. When the blade came in for a horizontal strike the boy pushed his weight and parted his legs so they were out at shoulder width.
The thief pulled down his blade as Whatever drew his in from the right. His left hand, gripping the blade crossed in front of him as if he was making a cutting action, but in fact he moved his hand to stabilize the blocking blade. This act kept the left blade facing vertically, out toward Whatever's belly and torso to deter any forward movements, unaware of the maddening rage of a Berserker.
"HA!" As soon as Whatever was close enough with his own blade, Zidane released his now ready Grand Lethal at close range.
"Sometimes, you can't think everything out. You have to listen to your heart."

His face staring angered at Zidane in his berserking state. Then the sudden Grand Lethal would've surprised the berserking Heartless if he were not... berserking. As the energy hit him in the face, the Heartless was simply blasted back as he let out a howl.
Flying back, the Heartless lost his sword in the progress that vanished into Darkness. The Heartless rolled a bit back before grabbing and pushing his legs out as he took hold of the ground. Standing on the ground more like a beast than a person, the Heartless kicked himself off the ground again. Most of his body was now leaving off a black smoke as his body was wounded. His charge was also rather limp due to his legs being wounded from the fight so far.
However, in his state of berserk, the Heartless didn't care for wounds, he didn't care for his own state, his only set of mind would be to shred his opponent to bits. As he rushed forward, he would then attempt a Flurry Combo as he tried to strike his right fist forward aimed at Zidane's head, then following it up with his left arm to the torso, at almost the same time, he tried to twist his right leg towards Zidane's left leg, as to try and hit him down before he launched his right fist again to Zidane's torso and following this, he had pulled up his left leg in a quick movement in an attempt to stomp Zidane in the stomach.
However, he wasn't going to end it there as the Heartless immediately charged again after his attack, but this time he held both arms open as if he was trying to give Zidane a hug. Instead he tried to grab ahold of Zidane as he tried a bullrush and shove the opponent back towards the end of the arena before trying to slam Zidane down to the ground again with a full body slam.
Actions [1] Flurry Combo with five strikes explained in the third paragraph. =P [2] A bullrush hug! [3] As finishing touch! A body slam to da ground!!

Jovial Prince of Thieves After the explosion of ki the boy saw no outward effect in his attack. He had no idea how much damage the fellow was taking, if any. It was like fighting a wall. Maybe he had not gained any experience in those last few fights? Was this really his limit? Was he going to falter here and be unable to change who he was? Shit! Bloody shit! His confidence was wavering. The Mad charger rushed toward him and began to pummel him with an unexpected flurry of blows. Zidane had no idea what to do. What could he do? If he gave up he felt as if they would laugh at him. he was here to put on a show, but he was doing a pretty crappy job so far. Why had he wanted to win the trophies?
Because that kid seemed so happy to get along with everyone.
As each hit landed a piece of Zidane's thoughts would crumble. He groaned when the first strike hit his head, and by the time stomp came to bash into his stomach he was grinning. The air was forced from him in a harsh gasp before he began to laugh out. Zidane would be pushed back by the kick, but keep himself stable. His azure eyes glared up from between his sandy bangs. He could do this. He had nothing to lose in a friendly tussle right? Whatever began to charge him into a bullrush. He lowered his smaller body into a crouch and discarded his blades.
He held out his hands out at either side of him in a ready position, as if he was ready to charge. When Whatever came into him and held him in a hug the boy would grab at the back of Whatever's shoulder and the man's hip as if preparing to dance with him, and this was indeed a dance to the death, of sorts. He unlocked his heels as if to allow the tackle, but he would follow through as he was pushed back.
The thief would attempt to spring his legs off the ground as his Trance began to dissipate, and use the last of his enhanced jumping skills to leap into the air with Whatever. In a last reckless move he felt that if he took them both hurtling into the ground, only one of them had the sense to not bust their skulls into the arena ground. He would use Air Jump and try and take himself and Whatever over twenty feet into the air before they would come hurtling back down, headfirst into the arena. He would plan to release from the aerial slam and slam himself in a safer manner into the ground, but there was no way such a self punishing move would let the thief go completely unscathed.
If it failed the boy would simply take the tackle and roll them both along the ground before trying to knee him in the gut and tossing him off following through with an attempt to lift himself and ready himself to follow through the attack with another devastating kick.

[cs=2][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, width: 440px; background-color: #000000; border: 5px solid #000000; border-radius: 10px, bTable]
| [atrb=style, background: #111111; border: 5px solid #99983E; border-radius: 10px; opacity: 0.8;] While his blows were hitting, there was no change of expression, no thoughts, no feeling, just mad berserking from the Heartless' side. He continued his assault and when he had kicked off Zidane before rushing at him again, seeing the opponent open his arms, discarding his weapons, it did nothing for the Heartless. If he had been capable of thinking, he knew there was something not right, but then again... he wouldn't be making these reckless assaults to begin with. While he had been through many battles in the arena during his time, the Heartless still had a cowardous side. A side that was non-existent while his berserk was active.
As the two fighters came into contact and the Heartless planned to slam the tailed boy to the ground, the opponent had other ideas when the boy jumped along with him. As if wrestling in air, the two seemed to have been moved to go down head-first by Zidane as he made a second jump in the air. The Heartless wanted to try and throw the opponent into the ground as he felt the other also tried to hit him, but as he came hurling into the ground...
... With head first, the Heartless crashed into the ground. While the pain was always ignored in this form, it still had quite an effect on the Heartless' head as the body shook slightly. Black smoke rose from the crater where the Heartless was crushed into the ground. All of the smoke came from the many wounds and especially from the part that was now buried. Then the body started to move, a bit more as a flailing rather than normal movement before the Heartless fell down and was now laying on the ground. His mouth foaming as he crawled around, his sight was flickering over the place as his head just didn't function correctly at the moment. His head was twitching while he moved about.
Then the darkened skin started to fade, his eyes turned to normal, but dazed and the twitching of his body ended. Just thought flowed through his head, all in a random manner and with great pain. Th... this gotta be the worst way I came out that berserking state... ever... his face had taken more of a shocked expression as he wasn't sure what was going on. He was barely able to move and he had trouble working out how to actually move his limps. In a slow flailing manner, the Heartless was attempting to push himself off the ground, but failing at it.
Darkness swirled around his right arm as he attempted to create a weapon again. He hoped for a gun and just shoot at the opponent as he continued to crawl himself in an attempt to get to his feet, instead a large weapon started to materialize as his right hand now held the hilt of the Two-Handed Greatsword. "C..cr...cra...ap..." he managed to mutter as his jaws felt barely in good state after the crash. He immediately released it as he pushed both arms to under his body as he brought himself into a more kneeling position.

Jovial Prince of Thieves Came crashing down with Whatever's body. Before they landed the more level-headed thief tucked his neck and raised his shoulders before he locked his body, bracing it for the harsh impact. The sound of their bodies hitting the ground sounded muted since he was so close to the action. He ended up rolling away from Whatever before he came to a stop. He would end up scraping up his body, but he was still conscious. That was always a good sign. Zidane pushed himself to his feet and popped his wrists. His bandages were loosening by this point. The thief looked over to his left before he spied his blades. The boy stepped back and slowly flexed his hands.
He booked it and ran toward his weapons. Swiping them back up, off of the ground, the boy kept his body low to the ground and slide across the wrecked field to retrieve his precious Mage Mashers. He stood and spun the blades in hand. He gave a flirtatious grin to death before snapped the blades together and caused them to spark. He ducked down and rushed toward Whatever with ferocity. He was not aiming to hurt the fella, but he wanted to at least show off. He had style and grace! This was something he could do!
"Here I go! Watch me!" He shouted out in joyous laughter. He was burned out. His attacks were now limited to his ability to fight face to face with his opponent, which was not something he did very well at.He stabbed his right blade forward toward Whatever. He gashed the blade down and out before he pulled his left blade up, the fist motioning to actually push Whatever back.
He would attempt to jump back and put distance between them.

Next to that there was the ringing in his head, his blurry vision and massive headache from the crash. Even with his current shaky vision, he could notice the arena floor being damaged. He seriously questioned what had just progressed while he was berserking.
The Heartless fell the quick stab, it rang through his body with pain, but also cleared his head somewhat. This fight is still in bloody progress, he gritted his head before feeling the second attack as he fell back again and rolled over the ground. "Ri..ght..."
The Heartless now lay on his back and lifted his left arm up, aimed at Zidane. Darkness swirled around his arm, although it wasn't magic attacks that he was truly hoping for. His first spell... failed completely. He felt nothing change. Then he tried to cast another spell and a ball of Darkness was fired from his hand, he had used Dark. The sphere then split into two after a short travel and now two spheres started to fly at Zidane, both would follow the opponent as they were more homing spells.
Meanwhile in his right hand, swirls of Darkness appeared as well as he tried to create a weapon. His Handgun took shape, but before he started to fire it at Zidane, he gritted his teeth as he pulled his upper body up. Flashes of pain went through his body from the wounds and he felt like giving out a scream, but he managed to get in a sitting position before he aimed at Zidane. "This fight... has gone..." he said, but without finishing his sentence as he started to fire bullets at Zidane. He brought both his legs together as he was firing his gun, crossing them before him as he planned to pull himself up fully. He had hoped that he could've gotten his levitation spell, so he would be up off the ground immediately, but he didn't seem to have that luck.
Actions [1] Used Extension, which fumbled due to the lack of a weapon. [2] Used Dark to fire an sphere at Zidane, which then splitted into two and started to home in on Zidane. [3] Created his Handgun and used it to fire a bullet spree.

Jovial Prince of Thieves He was running out of time, but he would give it one last go. When the sudden burst of darkness erupted from the veteran-by-compare, the thief allowed an obscenity to fly from his lips. With his precious blades gripped in his hands, he would take off running. He looked back only to see the spheres following him. He had to think quick! It was always the difference between life and death! In this case it was merely competition and it was not something he was ever good at.
He never cared about it. He found no point in competing in these sorts of events. Spending the majority of his life in Lindblum, the male never found joy in the annual Festival Hunts. Wild beasts set loose on the town and warriors came to test their mettle by hunting these ferocious creatures down. He had recalled ever serving once in the competition and it was only to further his goals with a certain dark-haired beauty. This Arena even was no different to him. It was a useless even that only served him one purpose. He wanted those trophies, he wanted his name somewhere where others could see who he was. Most of all he wanted to impress those that always sought to look down on him.
He wanted to accomplish this and become a better person. He wanted to be someone his friends looked to with pride and could speak highly of his bravery against the furthest odds.
The snap of gunfire suddenly ripped the male from his thoughts. Hand guns was not something he had any experience against. It caused a momentary panic which pushed the thief forward. The spheres of darkness would hit the target-mark and send the boy tumbling along, but even as the darkness from the attack smoked from his body in trails that danced into the sky: he would not stop. The burning pain began to seep into his bones. Without the regenerative properties of his EX, he could feel the aches of his pains clearly.
Having bounced twice the boy rolled to his feet and continued running. He pushed passed the pain as he ran toward Whatever. A stray shot caught him over his eye brow. It was a pain he had never experienced, but it did not matter. He would push all of his strength into this charge, and Gamble on his Luck. A powerful ki pulled from the boy's body as he aimed to drive into Whatever as this strange weapon went off. He pushed all of his speed into pounding his weight into Whatever.
He pushed out his hand in an attempt to Mug Whatever and forcibly remove his weapon from his hand. The action was more forceful than a simple Steal and was a simple attempt in disarming an opponent to Disable their abilities held by the particular weapon. Though he had only knocked off one successful Steal, of his own weapon no less, he hoped the attempted Mugging would succeed.
It was hard to say the amount of damage he could pull off with his current stage of confidence. While he was up close he would follow through the forceful and attempted Mug. The boy slashed his blade down from his right hand and pulled his left blade up in a X-slash motion. This action would allow him to focus the ki into a point. Thievery would be enacted on Whatever in hopes of delivering devastating damage directly to him.

It seemed the opponent didn't lose any momentum as he continued to roll and then run onward. Seeing his stunts so far, the Heartless thought to himself, this guy really is acrobatic. And amazing at it too. He blinked a few times, quite in awe while he was still trying to push himself up off the ground finally.
But even as he got off the ground while continuing his attack, the opponent had turned and was now headed for him. Eh? Zidane came charging right into him, which sort of surprised the Heartless as he was expecting a more normal attack than Zidane's full weight coming at him. In his surprise, the handgun got forcefully removed from his hand as he felt a sting, but the weapon simply faded once it left his hand as it required him to touch his weapon to be able to use it.
Now without a weapon, he tried to step back and created swirls of Darkness around his both hands with an idea. Although most was focussed into his right hand. However, the Darkness didn't seem to be working in weapon form as the slashes went through his body. He wanted to shout out something really profane before the sudden burst knocked even further back. While his legs were already shakey, he managed to keep himself standing.
"Uhh..." he moved a hand forward and focussed now on his spell part, this time he started to Levitate as his feet left the ground. At least... it gives me some mobility, he thought as he simply continued to focus on his hand and fired a large rock with Stonera this time. The large rock now came hurling at Zidane.
Actions [1] Failed to create a weapon due to Disable status. [2] Used Levitate. [3] Fired Stonera at Zidane.

And the judging results:
Judge 1
Damage Dealt Whatever clearly took more damage here. Two-hit combo of a thrust and upward slash, slashed into his left arm, Grand Lethal x2 (one lowered from arms blocking), Meo Twister (partially blocked by Stonera), hook punch, Tidal Flame (hit by second half), one-two combo, Mug, and Thievery.
Compared to Zidane who only took a punch, Flurry Combo x2, Final Thrust, two-hand slamed, Dark x2 (one barely scathed), bullrush, and a bullet-wound over the eye.
So for good sportsmanship for taking all those attacks, I give the win for this category to Whatever.
Creativity
Whatever deserves a mention for wrapping his Spiked Chain around Zidane's weapon, as well as bullrushing Zidane. However, that's the only thing I can think of he was creative with here, as blocking with Stonera was something he already used in his last fight with YX.
I feel Zidane was actually a bit more creative here. Zidane has creative credit for a hand 'feint' with his Ogre following up. He started out with just normal combos, but I was impressed with three things. When he used Grand Lethal in close-range, using Whatever's bullrush 'hug' and reversed it against him with jumping, and when he saved Mug and Thievery for last after having used Steal on Whatever with his own weapon previously. It was a nice finisher considering he had exhausted his Trance Mode and it would have done a lot of damage, considering Whatever's last post in combination with the close-proximity Grand Lethal. Zidane also made good use to use Grand Lethal at close range to make Yazoo lose his Longsword, then used his bull-rush against him by jumping with him and pushing him off as Yazoo slammed them head-first into the ground. These reasons are why I chose for the winner of this catgory Zidane as the winner.
Realism
Zidane gets a honorable mention for sticking with his three actions maximum per turn properly as per the rules. Whatever used four actions on the turn he summoned Spiked Chain, Extension, blocked Zidane's attacks with an arm then cast Levitate.
Kudos for Zidane for also sticking with how he executes his powers as written in his application. Whatever shot Dark from his forehead... when his powers clearly state that it is shot from his hand.
Kudos for Whatever for not trying to pre-emptively dodge an attack, like Zidane did in the opening. Also, Zidane keeps swearing. I don't think that's very in-character as he never swears in any of the games, and he definately wouldn't get away with it in Kingdom Hearts. It has to do with the fight because he's not very in-character with him in that small regard, which loses points.
Whatever gets credit where credit is due for staying in character and sticking to this fighting style. Kick/punch attacks are not in character for Zidane, when he was disarmed he should have tried to get his weapon back without using these.
Whatever gets points for sticking with what he wrote in both his roleplay and with his actions. Zidane mentions he did a half-circle strike with The Ogre after his 'feint' attack in his notes, but this never actually shows up in writing in the actual post, just the flip-kick.
Lastly Zidane ignored Whatever's attack on him using the Spiked Chain after Zidane used Meo Twister. Instead he concentrated on another Dyne skill as he fell away from Whatever and resumed as if nothing had happened. It's for there overwhelming reasons I have decided the ultimate winner of this fight is
Whatever
Judge 2
It doesn't actually affect the raid any, but I would like to note that Zidane does swear in his game of origin. I agree that Whatever won realism regardless, but it would be bad if he lost a future raid because we docked him for something he does in source material.
Damage Dealt - Whatever basically ate all of Zidane’s trance voodoo while Zidane largely took superficial damage. So if we’re going by who got pounded harder then yeah, Whatever won. Uhh, it’s not necessarily out of character for Zidane to be dodge-happy, as anyone who’s played Dissidia can attest, but I’ll follow Vince’s lead here since I honestly don’t even know how this category works anymore. Whatever wins.
Creativity - Definitely Zidane; probably because there’s not a whole lot much else he can do until he trances out. Lacking strange or even commonplace abilities, his only real option was to use his wits and make the best of his natural agility and odd weapon if he wanted to keep up with Whatever’s potential for damage. And he did well in that regard. I would like to second his getting close to basically shotgun Grand Lethal.
Whatever did some cool stuff too, but he failed to feel quite so vibrant. So the winner here is Zidane.
Realism - Man, when Zidane basically ignored the existence of the Spiked Chain, that really annoyed me. I imagine it must’ve annoyed Ryo more but such is beyond the scope of this review. I absolutely hate when that happens. I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume that maybe he forgot/didn’t notice the chain attack, but still man, gotta pay attention. I dock hard for that.
Stating you’re making an evasive attack at the beginning, as Zidane did, is probably fair game. I was on the fence with it though.
My only real complaint with Whatever is on the Dark attack defying its description. It was cool, granted, but it shouldn’t have been possible with what was already written. Still, I’d call it a minor offense at worst. Winner Whatever.
Whatever
Judge 3 was not needed.
Whatever wins this round by decision. Zidane's loss has been recorded.
