The Soul Eater rune's *other* famous wielder enters the arena after an extended absence - which itself followed a rather unfortunate downgrade in his debut season. Now relegated to Heavy, Ted is looking to prove himself worthy of the same repute as his successor. (or at least make it past eliminations this time!) His foe is another well-meaning youth cursed with a terrible power: Ashley Winchester, the Knightblazer. The battle promises to be quick and brutal, as few have the stamina to withstand the raw, dark power of Ted's fourth-level spells, and Ashely is certainly not among them. Meanwhile, the bayonet-weilding hero has little chance of defeating Ted with a single blow, even if he uses his Accelerator ability to seize the initiative. Judgement will be swift and final for poor young Ashley Winchester.

Ashley has certainly found a kindred soul in his opponent this week. A boy so young, yet forced to contain a divine being within his body, frightened of the chance that he may hurt the ones close to him...that said, Ashley certainly won't deny having some inner-demon envy. Ted doesn't need to be completely swallowed in the heat of battle to access his powers, which is a lot better than the deal Ashley got. Not that Ashley is completely helpless before unleashing Knightblazer. With Accelerator, he can get the drop on even the surprisingly speedy archer, and do a number on him with his trusty bayonet with one shot of DeadOrAlive or Fantom Fang. Considering the legendary durability problems of Suikoden mages, he may just be able to take Ted out before the deceptively young-looking immortal can pass Judgement on him.

A swift match, one of technology pitted against magic, one of swift bullets pitted against life-rending darkness.
Or so it could have been, had things gone right.

"Oohoho!" Brahne cackled from the judges box, from her seat on top of an unconcious Crono. "This is delicious." She said, watching Ted and Ashley strut their stuff across the field.
"Eheheh! Yes!" Elinee said, watching the match from her perch on top of Spikey. "It's been so long since I've seen a handsome young man."
"Far, far too long!" Matoya said, grinning down at the pair.
Both Ted and Ashley wearing naught but the scantiest of briefs. And their weapons. Evidently long arrows and a large gun/sword combination carried by both of them had some added effect.
"Mmmm. It's still no contest, is it? Ted is clearly the best looking. Heheh, I always wanted to see him like this." Wendy said.
"Yeah." "Mmmmhmmm." "Then it's agreed. But let's let them go on a while longer." Matoya said, smiling.

-Are you thoroughly convinced that this situation needs to be fixed yet?- Mewtwo said.
"..." Yuri stared blankly, then shuddered violently as Ashley did a pelvic thrust at the judges boxes. "I think I'd slit my wrists if this continued. Let's come up with some way to fix this, fast."
Ted: 54
Ashley Winchester: 24

Ted vs Ashley...it sounds like a somewhat epic battle since both have accursed powers, but Ted's S4 form is lacking one major thing...ID. While Ted has Judgement, it's not out of the question for Ashley to Accelerate and try for ID with DeadorAlive, and if that fails and he survives Judgement, try for it again with the regained FP.
Sorry Ted.
