After Seox's victory in the third match, a scream rings out. (Captain) and company rush to the scene to find that monsters have infiltrated the colosseum.

Ayer: Damn... it all...

Seox: ...

Commentator: We haaave a winneeer!

Commentator: The victor of the third match is the... um... the Pitch-Black Punisher!

Commentator: That name had me worried about the match.

Commentator: But both our contestants delivered! What a fight!

Vyrn: Phew! The Eternals really are on a whole 'nother level!

Lyria: But Ayer didn't seem like himself.

Vyrn: That's true...
Huh? What's up, (Captain)?

Vyrn and Lyria look up as (Captain) stands up.

Vyrn: You headed out already?

Lyria: You have to prepare for your next match, right?

Vyrn: Aren't you up against—

???: Aaah!

Vyrn: What was that?

Lyria: Someone screamed!

Lyria: It came from over there!

Vyrn: Let's go!

The trio race toward the source of the scream.

Monster: Groooar!

Fight Fan 2: Crap! What's this monster doing here?

Monster: Graaah!

Fight Fan 3: Nooo! Stay away!

Lyria: Oh no, looks like monsters have broken into the colosseum!

Vyrn: A whole mess of 'em too! We gotta do something!

???: ...

Vyrn: Hm?
Guys, look over there!

Lyria: It's Ghandagoza!

Standing a head taller than the monsters and the spectators scrambling to escape them is the imposing figure of Ghandagoza.

Ghandagoza: Hmph.

Vyrn: He's completely surrounded!

Lyria: They've got him! They're trying to take a bite out of him!

Vyrn: Wait a sec... What's he up to?

Vyrn: Whoa, whoa! Stop!

Ghandagoza: Hnnngh!

Ghandagoza raises one craggy fist and begins to focus his power into it.

Vyrn: Gaaah! Hold it! Time out! If you use that technique here...

Vyrn: You'll blow the whole colosseum into the cosmos!

(Captain) and Vyrn ready themselves and charge into the throng of monsters.
