(As one day passes, entering the day of the Chun-See-Yoon Championship bout, hundreds of Chun-See-Yoon students were decorating across the campus for the day of the fight. Many of Chun-See-Yoon students of the academics where hyped for such a fight. As the Student Counsel of Chun-See-Yoon were surprised at the turn out, Mike was revealed to be in their very office, congratulated by even the headmaster for such a turnout for their school.)
"Headmaster T'ak: Mr. Ackerman, there are not enough words in the world that I can say to express my gratitude to you, you've saved our school and with only three professors left..!"
"Jiyeon: What about those other three academic professors that were sent to the fight?"
"Headmaster T'ak: Those three were the bait to attract more Guma-Ro High students to our ally's areas."
"Jiyeon: Ehehe... That's pretty smart...!"
"Headmaster T'ak: All that matters is Chun-See-Yoon Academy gets to see another day and now things will become much better for us so on!"
"Nai: We really can't thank you enough, Ackerman."
"Mike: Ah, it was nothing. I really did all of this for Daxton."
"Juyo: So if Hunter actually wins tonight, Guma-Ro is finished?"
"Mike: That's right! And knowing Hunter, he's hungry for a fight after being in the hospital for some time."
"Nai: Oh! That reminds me, how is the group?"
"Mike: Well believe it or not, they're all walking and doing well. Daxton's almost healed completely, but he's at the academy gym training right now. But we shouldn't celebrate just yet, knowing Guma-Ro's history, they're not pretty fair fighters."
"Headmaster T'ak: Unfortunately, that's true."
"Mike: Don't worry, I got another idea on how to make sure the fight stays a one on one. I just need to borrow the school's bank account for a moment."
(Out of confusion for his request, T'ak did not care but allowed Mike access anyway, he was then ordering a certain object for same-day delivery. Meanwhile in the Chun-See-Yoon gym, Daxton was seen moving as perfectly as he could before, his ribs feeling more stronger than how they were before. His training was then interrupted by Henry whom Daxton manages to catch the retractable whip in time with a satisfied smirk that his instincts were still sharp.)
"Henry: Good to know you're not slacking, Daxton."
"Daxton: If I were to slack off before a fight, I'd may as well call it quits now.
"Henry: Good point, what's say me and you spar a little? Stretch out the muscles before your fight?"
"Daxton: Got to be fast before my kicks break your shin."
"Henry: Oh you're easy to read Hunter, don't underestimate the wrong Archeologist."
(As the two exchanged smug chuckles, they'd then circle one another in the gym before colliding fist to fist in sync with their attacks from punch to jab, side kick to roundhouse, elbow to forearm. A quick separation from the two allows Daxton to boost himself to Henry with an overhead axe handle, missing Henry, Daxton with an act of surprise was then launched across the mat by a hurricanrana. With a cocky look on his face, Daxton laughed as he then takes a martial art stance. With Henry gripping his father's old whip on the left of his belt, he'd then hesitate on his decision as Daxton then steps and rushes into Henry's space, landing a powerful knee strike to the chest which was protected by Henry's hand. The force of the attack, pushes Henry also across the mat.)
"Daxton: Oh yeah, I'm unpredictable too."
"Henry: Heh!"
(With Henry no longer hesitating he'd pull the western whip, snapping it from the distance he and Daxton have separated from one another as Daxton avoids the tip of the whip left and right and strategizing on how to close the distance between him and Henry. With Daxton timing the attack, he'd flash step past each crack of the whip, before realizing Henry's retractable whip was pulled, locking Daxton's left arm before yanking the western whip back, landing a STINGING and direct hit onto the back of Daxton, loops the western whip back and with the pullback strength of the retractable whip, Henry connects a mid-air cyclone kick to the blocked forearm of Daxton, allowing him to grip the very leg of Henry, lifting him directly into the air for a sit-out powerbomb onto the marble ground, the sheer impact forcing Henry to cough and lost his very breath. With Daxton attempting another powerbomb, Henry's instincts were to then kick in, freeing himself from Daxton's grip as the two then separated once again. The two chuckling at how strong they both has became despite being different weight classes.)
"Henry: I wish we could keep this fight going, but we might end up putting each other back in the hospital at this point."
"Daxton: Good point. If we ever fight in the ring, better not hold back against me."
"Henry: I don't plan to."
(With a knock on the door, gym door, Renzo was then interrupting the two's conversation.)
"Renzo: Hunter, it's time."
(Daxton then smirks as it was finally time but remembered to medicate himself with a pill to avoid going berserk in the fight. With Ryom in the ring cocky but confident in defending his title, alarms were then blaring in the Chun-See-Yoon Arena with the affects of smoke, red flashing lights and dark versatile music playing on the speakers of the arena as Daxton makes his entrance to the ring.)
"Kwok Young-Nam (South Korea Ringside Commentator): Welcome back everyone to Chun-See-Yoon LIVE! Joining me here at the commentary table is my longtime commentary partner, Tong Yeon-Seo, great to have you back on the team!"
"Tong Yeon-Seo (South Korea Ringside Commentator): Its great to even be back here, Nam! And just in time for the biggest fight in Chun-See-Yoon's history! But first, we'd also like to welcome two members of the American commentary team, Davian Patel & Gael Elliot!"
"Davian Patel (American Ringside Commentator): Thank you for having us with you two and welcome Chun-See-Yoon fans, we're here tonight to witness HISTORY into making and it is a battle for the Championship Gold!"
"Gael Elliot (American Ringside Commentator): That's right Patel, our fighters in that very ring right now are no strangers to one another! On the left side of the ring is the challenger, The Bare-Knuckled Devil, a man with a win/loss ratio of 14-3 and one of the most controversial fighters in our own country, Daxton Hunter is battling against South Korea's own Vulture, Ryom Hi-Seok, the reigning champion of Chun-See-Yoon Academy who has held the championship for roughly more than two months! What a colossal fight we're looking forward too!"
"Kwok Young-Nam: That indeed we are Elliot and now ladies and gentlemen, it's time for the main event of the evening!"
(With an official referee of Chun-See-Yoon raising the title in the air to reveal what is being defended, students of Chun-See-Yoon were thrilled for the title to return home to the school.)
"Referee: Opponents are to fight until either contestant is deemed unable to compete or submission. Ready?! RING THE BELL!"
(With the sound of a bell, Ryom begins to confidently remember a thought as he attempts to get into Daxton's head.)
"Ryom: You know Hunter, I've hated that smug look on your face ever since you got here, I've never intended on liking you or respecting you, because for someone like you to be dumped on MY doorstep for no apparent reason has always been a hell no. Consider today the final day you ever breath on this Earth, because you'll die in this ring!"
(With Daxton on the attack first, the two would clash as backstage, Henry was hearing the very roar of the crowd from the backstage area, interested in wanting to take a peek, he'd continue to hold down the entrance to the backstage of Chun-See-Yoon's superstars.)
"Henry: Sounds like the fight's getting started. Its a shame I can't watch the fight.."
(With Henry guarding the entrance and being bored out of his mind, he'd notice a rolling glass bottle approaching his very feet then collides with his boot. With one hawk and spit in the opposite direction, Henry then grips his western whip on the left side of his waist, waiting for those in the area to show their presence.)
"Henry: Show yourselves."
(With a count of 26 students in Guma-Ro High's uniform, armed and ready for a fight as Henry then grips both whips, his western and the retractable whip.)
"Henry: I take it you guys aren't here to ask me politely to move."
"Guma-Ro Assailant #1: Of course not fucker, we're gonna kill you and get in there as easily as possible!"
"Henry: I'm afraid that's not possible."
(Henry would remove the western whip, spinning it from side to side then in the air, preparing for a powerful snap as he was serious, his very bandages falling off of his face and his stomach no longer in pain.)
"Henry: Because I'm able to fight at 100% once again!"
(With the crack of a whip echoing across the outside of the arena, the noise continues to vibrate to the inside of the backstage area, Kin realizing the crack meaning that they've began the raid. With the crack reaching the ears of Senri, Kin, Renzo and Zoro, they all were no longer standby and were now guarding their positions to keep the fight a fair one on one.)
"Renzo: It appears it's time to take care of a bit more trash..."
(With Renzo cracking his fingers and on guard, he'd notice the unwelcomed presence of two enforcers within Chun-See-Yoon, two powerful guardians that would match Renzo's current strength. As Renzo then notices the sheer presence, he has come to the conclusion that these two were powerful enough to give him an aggressive fight.)
"Renzo: You two are pretty strong... AND I LOVE STRONG CHALLENGERS!"
(With Renzo no longer patient, he'd begin to grow muscle by muscle in size as he approaches his enemies, the two cocky enforcers then rushing to Renzo as the fight began. With Renzo guardian the hallways to the entrance stage, Kin was guarding and defending the South crowd exit, Senri defending the North, Zoro defending the East and the West left "unattended." Meanwhile in the ring, Daxton and Ryom would continue their battle with an onslaught of continuous attacks to one another, Daxton with body shots and devastating blows, Ryom with extended kicks and unpredictable punches.)
"Ryom (Thinking): Shit.. He's a powerful bastard who punches and my kicks aren't even phasing him..?! No matter, I'll out last him for exactly 15 minutes and then my very attackers will raid the school and kill him for me!"
(With Daxton closing the distance, Ryom instinctively dodges a powerful uppercut, a noticeable slit hitting Ryom's chin.)
"Gael: Ohh man!! If that uppercut landed, this fight would've been over!!"
"Tong: That was a powerful attack, even I felt the force reach over here!"
(With fans and the commentators praising Daxton for his seriousness in the fight, including his uppercut that moments ago could've ended Ryom's life in one shot. As Ryom closes in now, Daxton blocks a leg sweep but was baited into an overhead chop, colliding with his very head. With the chop echoing the arena, Daxton reveals a sneering smile, grapples Ryom around the sides and with strength lifted from the legs, Daxton delivers a Belly-To-Belly Suplex onto Ryom across the ring. With Ryom in dire shock of the attack, he was explicitly reminded that his fear of heights has kicked in for him.)
"Ryom (Thinking): Holy fuck...!!"
"Daxton: If you're done fighting me, be a good little weakling and die already!"
"Ryom (Aloud): ...You're.. gonna DIE!!"
(Ryom angerly then grabs a handle out of his pants pocket, revealing it was a police's nightstick as he rushes towards Daxton, whom parries multiple strikes with the nightstick, many of Chun-See-Yoon's audience were hyped for Daxton as he was in control of the fight. As Daxton fakes an overhead kick, Ryom decides to play a dirty trick. With Daxton's fake turning into a powerful jab, Ryom blocks the attack in time and with enough force in his right leg, kicking Daxton completely in the groin, the screams of agony roaring out of Daxton as Ryom finally gets his revenge by ruthlessly beating Daxton with the nightstick despite the low blow stunning Daxton from fighting any further. With Chun-See-Yoon's crowd immediately booing in hatred for Ryom, the screams of Daxton reached his friends ears as they wished to help Daxton but could not leave from their spot without abandoning the plan.)
"Ryom: TO THINK..! YOU COULD EVER! COMPARE YOURSELF TO ME! IS COMICAL, YOU AMERICAN REJECT! YOU STUPID PIG DOG!"
(With Daxton's body bruised from the nightstick assault, a change of presence would shake the spines of multiple spectators. In the crowd, a chant began to reach then echo through the arena.)
"Crowd: HUNTER'S GONNA KILL YOU! HUNTER'S GONNA KILL YOU! HUNTER'S GONNA KILL YOU! HUNTER'S GONNA KILL YOU!"
"Ryom: Kill me?! HA! ENOUGH FOOLING AROUND, HE DIES NOW!"
(Before Ryom could strike Daxton in the head, a surprise attack from Everest Hyun shocks the Chun-See-Yoon audience as Everest returned to the fight with a Knighttime Finisher spiking Ryom onto his face, breaking his nose in the process as the arena erupts in excitement.)
"Everest: LET ME TALK TO YA, I'M BACK BABY!!!"
"Crowd: EVEREST! EVEREST! EVEREST! EVEREST!"
(With Everest's name being changed throughout the arena, Ryom was then seen staggering and holding onto his broken nose as Everest then uses a baseball bat he's brought into the ring, breaking the bat over Ryom's spine, the very crack forcing Ryom to scream and cry in devastating pain as the body of the baseball bat would fall out of the ring, clacking onto the matted floor. With Daxton then at last getting up on his feet, Everest Hyun would help Daxton up as the two then tag teamed against Ryom, taking turns beating up Ryom whom would attempt to escape the arena as the referee continued to let the chaos ensure until either opponent could no longer fight. With Daxton still in pain from the low blow, Daxton grabs the tear-filled Ryom by the hair, delivering a thunderous gut punch as the punch was strong enough to force Ryom to cough a hefty amount of spit onto the ring's canvas.)
"Daxton: You... n-never.. should've kicked me there...! I'LL.. MAKE YOU SUFFER!!"
(Daxton then relentlessly delivers thunderous punches to the stomach, each punch becoming more dangerous and dangerous for Ryom for he would continue to spit out saliva, then his own blood and eventually would end up vomiting his very lunch. With most spectators sick to their own stomachs watching such a grotesque beating, Daxton would stop Ryom's pained body onto the mat as Ryom begins to escape out of the ring, from crawling to limping then running to the entrance stage which was then blocked off by Renzo and Henry. The fans on their feet in surprise to see Death and Indiana return to Chun-See-Yoon.)
"Renzo: Where do you think you're going, coward?"
"Henry: Can't run while defending your title, that's not how a champion acts."
(With Ryom backing away in fear, he'd attempt to run out the East ground exit as Zoro then appears with his kimono coated in slashes of blood as he pushes Ryom back towards the ring.)
"Zoro: Trying to escape the back way out is a very unwise move, you're just asking for a quicker death."
(With Ryom then panicking on where to go, he attempts the South exit, Kin Yoshimura was revealed with one unconscious enforcer of Guma-Ro High as she stares down Ryom.)
"Kin: You put us and this school through Hell and now it's time we restore it's order!"
(With nowhere to run, Ryom then panics for his life as he saw it flashing before his very eyes. With Ryom giving no attention to his surroundings, Senri intentionally blinds Ryom with itching powder in the eyes, forcing Ryom to be intentionally distracted, screaming and begging for help for he realized Guma-Ro High has lost the Rivalry Hit.. But now one act remained. With Ryom running as fast as he could despite being blinded to the West exit, he'd hop over the barricade before given any second to act, Ryom was speared through the metal barricades, Ryom in even more pain than he was as Mike has officially returned as well with a loud audible roar with adrenaline. With Daxton in pure happiness to see his group back together again, Daxton would command Ryom would be brought into the ring which was done by Everest as Chun-See-Yoon fans chants in sync:)
"Crowd: TAP HIM OUT! TAP HIM OUT! TAP HIM OUT! TAP HIM OUT! TAP HIM OUT!"
(With Daxton no longer staggering to stand, Ryom would continues scratching his eyes as he was crying and coughing while in devastating pain and utter humiliation. With Daxton gripping one of Ryom's arms, Daxton then growls loudly as he then roars, connecting and locking the left arm of Ryom into a brutal armbar, forcing Ryom to not only yell "I QUIT!!", he would also tap out while begging for his life once again. With the roar of the audience cheering for Daxton and the bell was rung, Daxton has then captured his 2nd Championship out of 15.)
"Ring Announcer: HERE IS YOUR WINNER BY SUBMISSION AND THE NEW MALE CHAMPION OF CHUN-SEE-YOON ACADEMY, DAXTON! HUNTER!!!"
(With the group and Everest celebrating with Daxton on the victory, news was plastering all over the world that Daxton has now collected his second championship and that he is one step closer to completing his very job.)
"Kwok Young-Nam: AND JUST LIKE THAT! THE TITLE IS BACK IN CHUN-SEE-YOON, CHUN-SEE-YOON ACADEMY HAS WON THE RIVALRY HIT!!"
"Mike: Mission Accomplished friend, 2 titles down, 13 to go."
"Daxton: Yeah!"
"Senri: I know we're celebrating and all but um, Ryom's still alive. What if he actually comes back here and causes more trouble?"
"Mike: Leave it to me, my package already arrived before the fight ended anyway."
"Daxton: Package?"
(As Mike quickly rushes to the very backstage for a moment, the celebration would continue for five minutes as the sounds of a running motor would echo in the arena as it was revealed Mike was driving out to the ring with a $15,000 ATV, circling the ring once before without alerting Ryom, locked Ryom onto a towing winch and revs the engine twice as officials begged Mike not to take off. As the group watched with Daxton on what Mike was planning, it was a dumb yet dangerous idea and Mike did not care.)
"Mike: LETS GO FOR A RIDE, MOTHERFUCKA!!"
"Ryom: NO! NO! PLEASEE!! PLEASEEE!!"
(With no further warning, Mike would drive off as Ryom screams for his life, being yanked at a fast speed from the ring all the way through the backstage area to the parking lot, waiting there is an open trailer for shipping deliveries. With Ryom begging that he wants to live, Mike would then pause for a moment, think and then drive the $15,000 ATV into the back of the trailer as Mike the presses a button on the towing winch as Ryom was crawling and scratching to grab onto something, including the floor as he continues to cry at the disrespect he's been given, he stares at Mike with tears in his eyes as Mike then smirks, grabbing the title of Guma-Ro High from his very bag, placing it around his waist, kneels at Mike and says to his face:)
"Mike: The CHAMP. Is. Right. Here. Goodbye, fraud."
(Mike then stomps on Ryom's hands, the yelling screams has him finally inside the trailer of the truck as Mike quickly slams the door shut, patting on the back of the truck twice as it begins to ship off to the docks for North Korea's Juvenile Detention Facility.)
"Mike: They don't allow weaklings in North Korea, so enjoy detention."
(With the end of of Guma-Ro High officially confirmed, Chun-See-Yoon's reputation was then saved as the news of Daxton's victory thanks to the help of his group spreads across the globe and even reaches the ears of the Underground Union AND the Global Government...)
-Rome, Italy-
(In the hideout of the Underground Union, the leader of the union, Clodoveo Fontecchio was once again pissed off at the amount of money they've lost for Ryom to do a half ass job in defeating Daxton Hunter as he then began swearing in Italian.)
"Clodoveo: ...One. Hundred. Million. Lost it to that FILTHY JACK OFF OF A-"
(He would begin swearing to the point his own guards would cover their ears.)
"Clodoveo: ..Forget it. I want that Hunter kid dead.. and since it took me two tries already, I will be making my punishments MORE SEVERE to those who fails me..."
"???: What should we do then boss?"
"Clodoveo: Remembering what's in that contract, Hunter can't return to the States until he's defeated 15 Champions. No matter, there's no reason for them to attend another school in countries they've completed... If I had to guess their next location, it's China."
"???: China? What makes you so sure?"
"Clodoveo: A client of mines revealed that this school's very stubborn on wanting to enroll Daxton and his crew, I'll alert our Chinese Faction to infiltrate and take him down. We got time before they get to China anyway!"
"???: Understood Boss."
-Daegu, South Korea-
(Back in South Korea, the group was at last partying with Chun-See-Yoon entirely as the Student Counsel and Headmaster T'ak were all in pure bliss as the sun was now setting in the horizon, the time would be 6:30 PM as Daxton was seen celebrating with the crew once again.)
"All: CHEERS!"
(With the group enjoying mixes of sodas, non-alcoholic drinks and teas, Daxton polishes the Chun-See-Yoon Male Championship which he'd love the shine onto his name.)
"Renzo: Well with another title down, should we make preparations for our next school in Asia?"
"Daxton: I actually received multiple emails from this one academy in China, they're very keen on enrolling all of us for a full year."
"Mike: China? They normally focus on academics rather than the Combat Bill, what school is it?"
"Daxton: I'll say the school eventually, but I'd rather spend the time we have and train, we'll leave for China this August."
(As the group then agrees and continues to celebrate, a fear-filled Yang, Daxton's roommate would at last find him and gets his attention from afar.)
"Daxton: I'll be right back everyone!"
(Daxton then meets Yang outside the gymnasium as Yang then was feared and panicked.)
"Yang: Hunter..!! First, congrats on the championship win.. But second, it's bad, things has gotten really bad in Tokyo..!!"
"Daxton: Wait, Tokyo? What are you talking about?"
"Yang: Hunter, Takuji's being prepped for EXECUTION!!!"
(Hearing the very word "execution" come from his very mouth, Daxton would then drop the title on purpose as he then pushes Yang into the wall, asking for more information.)
"Yang: AH!! Hunter..!!"
"Daxton: WHEN DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THIS?!"
"Yang: IT WAS NATIONAL NEWS EVER SINCE ONE THIS EVENING!"
"Daxton: Holy fuck... FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! WHEN'S HIS EXECUTION?!"
"Yang: Tomorrow morning at 4:00 AM..!"
"Daxton: I'm going to save him."
"Yang: WHAT?! YOU CAN'T GO ALONE!"
"Daxton: If I waste anymore time here, Takuji might be executed sooner! I need to fucking go!"
"Yang: HUNTER, EVEN IF YOU COULD GET TO JAPAN, KOREA'S FORCES MANAGED TO BLOCK THE DOCKS! YOU NEED AUTHORIZATION TO GET DOWN THERE!"
"Daxton: What about the fucking airport?!"
"Yang: They block all entry points to the plane gates, breaking into the gates would trigger Airport Security in a blink of an eye..!"
"Daxton: I want you to look when's the next plane to fricking Tokyo."
"Yang: Hunter, it's not possible. The Global Government knew you're in Korea and on top of the fact you're affiliated with Takuji, they'll do anything they can to stop you from getting to Tokyo!"
"Daxton: Fucking Government... I need to get there NOW!"
(As Daxton then punches his fist into the wall and creates a dent, he'd try to calm down and think how he can get over the seas to Japan quickly.)
"Yang: Hunter, what the hell are we gonna do...?"
"Daxton: ...I got one idea."
(As Daxton then rushes off without telling Yang, Yang would call out Daxton whom rush off campus to catch an incoming taxi to the airport, attempting to get to Japan.)
"Daxton (Thinking): Takuji... I'm coming to save you, don't fucking worry...!"
-Fuchu Prison Death Row Block-
(With the clock ticking down before the biggest melee to come in Tokyo history, the Rescue of Takuji Yoshimura, will he be executed or will he be saved? With forces enroute to prepare for battle, Takuji would then be going through final check-ups before his execution at 4:00 AM in the morning, still holding hope that he could be saved...)
"Ikegi: In ten hours, you'll be getting killed, how does it feel to almost be brought down by the blades of justice?"
"Takuji: ..."
"Ikegi: Ignoring me? Hello?"
"Takuji: ..."
"Ikegi: Hmph, no matter. I'll be grateful to just watch you die on that scaffold, just like your pathetic granddad."
(With Takuji ignoring every disrespectful insult thrown at him, he would turn his head to the side as he mentally keeps himself sane and still holds out hope that he gets a chance to apologize truthfully to Kin.)
