The icy wind blew as Victor and Rikku trudged along through the snow, their gundams leaving massive footprints. Victor was content with not seeing any enemies so far, but it was becoming unsettling. He had heard sounds of battle from far away, and was becoming impatient. He wanted blood. And he wanted his partner, Rikku, to get in some battle experience. At least this time she would have someone to protect her, not like last time when Seifer attacked her. As they walked on, Victor began to have a dark feeling inside of him. It was too quiet. But not for long....
A blip appears on Vic�s radar screen, as an enormous energy blast comes screaming in. �MOVE!!!!� he yells
The blast barely misses them, as it streaks into a glacier, vaporizing it completely.
Rikku looks around, the blip that was on the radar screen disappeared as fast as it had reappeared. Then from above her several homing missiles come streaking in from above her and hit her.
�d**n� Vic looks up and sees a winged form in the air. �It�s Aoshi and Xellos. Out of all the people, they had to be the first ones to show up.�Rikku, You need to try and hold Xellos off. At least until I destroy Aoshi. Now where the hell is he....�
�Wouldn�t want to keep you waiting, Victor,� Aoshi said, and drops in, Dragon buster sword held up over his head.Vic looks up, raises his quazar rail gun, and fires off 2 rounds. They hit Apocalypse gundam in midair, sending him flying back and landing in a heap several hundred yards away.
�Now, eat this!� Victor says, the quazar rail gun glowing. But befre it could finish charging, several ghost missiles come screaming in, blasting the rail gun out of Victor�s hand. As the smoke clears, Azrail is still standing, but his torso has a massive hole in it.
�Ouch....� Victor says, and draws the Sword of Apocalypse......
* * *
Mermaid Gundam stands, on the defensive. Her twin beam trident is drawn as Xellos keeps dive bombing her, slashing at her with his ultimate saber. � He is really pissing me off,� she says to herself. She looks up as Wing Zero soars above her and turns around, preparing for another charge. As he swoops in, she fires off a massive volley of missiles, expending all of her ghost missiles. A smile comes across her face as all of them hit Wing Zero.It falls to the ground and lands in a smoking heap.
�Vic,� she says � I got him!�
* * *
Aoshi charges at the still smoking form of Azrail, Dragon Buster sword held high. He sees Victor get in a defensive stance, and at that moment activates his super mode. Apocalypse gundam erupts in a gold flash, becoming a gold blur as it tears across the white plain after Azrail.
� This isn�t good,� Victor says, and drops into a defensive stance. As Aoshi nears him, Victor yells and viciously slashes at Apocalypse gundam, but only hits air.
�What the-� A massive screech of metal is heard as the Sword of Apocalypse slices through Azrail�s torso, ending Victor�s hope of winning the Battle Royale. Aoshi powers down, adn turns to Mermaid Gundam.......
�You Bastard!!!� she says, but backs away. She keeps backing until she bumps into Wing Zero, who is back on his feet. �No!� she yells, and in rage slahses at Xellos. He jumps back, and readies his ultimate saber, preparing to deliver the killing blow. But as he does so, Mermaid gundam�s top half falls and explodes, the silhouette of Apocalypse gundam barely visible behind the smoke. � d**n it Aoshi, you have all the fun,� Xellos says grumpily.

[RESULT: Victor and Rikku are eliminated from the battle royale. Xellos loses half of his AP and Vash loses 1/4 of AP. Aoshi is left with 15 lightnign strike missiles.]
