As Zeno and Alex left the battlefield, Hau stood up. He made his way out of the stands and down into one of the hallways. Once again he bumped into Ryuki.
"Watch it runt," he growled with a grin as he and his Turtonator walked away.
Hau whirled around. "Just you watch! I'm going to beat you! And then who'll be the runt!"
Ryuki stopped dead, his Turtonator stopping as well. "Huh."
He turned his head slightly, his eyes narrowed. "Only the Hero Born of Darkness is allowed to beat me. You're nothing compared to him."
He continued walking while Hau just stood there, fists clenched. "I'll show him. I'll show them all."
He turned and walked towards the gate, which was opening. He stepped into the sunlit arena, barely noticing the roaring crowd. Shaking his head, he smiled. There was no time to worry about Ryuki. Now was time for a battle. One that he had been looking forwards to for a long time.
Hau stopped on his end of the battlefield and stared at his opponent. Hala, his grandfather. Now was time to see who really was stronger.
"Trainers, send out your first Pokemon!"
Hala sent out his Machamp as Hau tossed in his Glaceon. Not the best match up, but it was how Hau wanted to start this.
"Battle, begin!"
"Let's make the first move!" Hau shouted. "Quick Attack!"
Glaceon burst forwards as Hala yelled, "Low Sweep!"
"Jump over it," Hau commanded. "Now use Ice Fang!"
Glaceon opened her mouth and bit down on one of Machamp's arms, frost spreading across the Fighting type's body.
"Get her off with Karate Chop!" Hala ordered.
Machamp raised a glowing hand and chopped off Glaceon. She fell as Hau shouted, "Blizzard!"
A wind of snow and sleet rushed out of nowhere and slammed into Machamp, sending him back a few steps.
"Use Hail!" Hau yelled. "Then Ice Shard!"
Clouds formed overhead and pelted down hail. As the Blizzard died, Machamp was pelted by ice shards.
"Continue with Blizzards!" Hau commanded.
"Cross Chop!" Hala shouted.
Machamp crossed his arms just as the Blizzards struck. He moved slowly at first, but then he was pushing against the cold wind with ease.
"Get out of there with Quick Attack!" Hau ordered.
"Block her escape with Low Sweep!" Hala commanded
Machamp's leg swung out and struck Glaceon, sending her up into the air.
