Dream Effects: Optional: costume change to someone in Vesperia or Graces
"Now it's time for the main event!"
The cheers of a huge crowd seem almost quiet in comparison to the announcer. Everyone was riled up and they were letting it show.
"Allow me to introduce... The current and undefeated champion of the coliseum!"
Taking this moment, Asbel walked into the arena, sword and shield already in hand. However he was dressed quite
differently from his normal clothing.
"It's the heartthrob with the steely gaze! Flynn Scifo!"
Reaching the middle of the arena Asbel had to pause for a moment. Was that really- But why? "... Yuri? What are you doing here?!"
"Huh, so you're the evil villain who's trying to take over the coliseum," Yuri commented sarcastically as he turned to face Asbel. Even in a situation like this, you could count on Yuri to come up with some sort of sarcasm.
"Very funny. Want to tell me what you're talking about?" A bit irritated at this unexpected turn of events.
"Heh, so we're being used," Yuri dodged the question, already getting into his usual stance to fight.
"... It seems that way," Asbel agreed as he went into stance. Whatever the case, they were both in the arena and the audience was expecting a fight. As much as he would want to question Yuri about what he had gotten himself into this time, he wouldn't be allowed much of a chance as of now.
"Men of the coliseum! Let the flames of your valor burn bright! It's time for the final showdown!"
Taking that as a sign to start, Yuri and Asbel charge at each other to begin the final battle of the day. His opponent took the first strike leaving the ex knight with little choice but to use his shield to defend himself. The blow was rather powerful but nothing he couldn't handle. Still, it just meant that Yuri was taking this seriously as any other fight.
"Aren't you cutting it a bit close?"
"Hey, these people didn't pay good money to see a rigged fight," Yuri pointed out offhandedly as he eased off for a brief moment to make another strike. Asbel jumped back a few feet only to rush up to him and block yet another attack.
"You could at least ease up a little."
"Like you're having any trouble blocking me," the other retorted, seeming to enjoy this fight more than he was letting on.

[A bit fast to wake up. That... was a really weird dream putting it lightly, but oh well- Wait something feels off. Now looking at what he was wearing... Just wut? Wasn't this what he wore in the dream?!]
Huh? What's going on??
[Getting up and trying to take some of the armor off, like the gauntlets for starters, but with no success, all while oblivious to his Dreamberry still on.]
