EXhibition: Yoru vs Proximus

[Ace Trainer]

The arena has a 25m radius and is mostly comprised of grass land, trees to provide some shelter and texture to the battlefield. However, 5m from the wall surrounding the entire arena is sandy terrain. The arena is marked by a 20m high wall that is built in the shape of a doughnut, the seats are layered with ten rows running along the whole perimeter of the arena. There is a tower that is supported by pillars and columns above the northers side of the stadium, this is where the representatives of other nations are seated. The participants have the own place to wait until their turn, it is at the bottom section of the wall surrounding the battlefield and has a viewing window that allows the participants to watch fighting that take place. Yoru will begin at the eastern most point, standing directly in front of the sand. Proximus will begin at the western most point, standing directly in front of the sand.

The judges for this bout will be Nu, Sha, and Ji (all judges will be controlled by Onu sicne he's not participating in this event and it will expedite the process (maybe))

The man known as Aizawa, Yoru stood on the most eastern part of the arena there was almost a deathly silence in the stands, only whispers and murmurings could be heard. He was an infamous figure, not only in his village but across the shinobi world, he was known as a treacherous, leech of a man who attempted to kill his own kage and fought against his own village in an aggressive invasion.

And yet, as immoral as Yoru was. This bout did not sit right with him. His single hazel eye fell upon the man, shackled and bound, apparent either a slave or a prisoner. Either way, a forgotten man dragged out for entertainment. Growing up as a slave himself, scars etched into his back and when he turned his head he could almost feel the shackle around his neck from all those years ago. He could not bring himself to fight the shackled man and it made his disgust for Iwagakure grow even more.

“I forfeit.” He said, just loud enough that it would be heard by the judges. He nodded to the bound man, wishing he could free him, but it seemed almost impossible.

With that, the notorious shinobi turned on his heels stepped across the sand and out of the fighting pits.

Between his bout with the genin and now, Proximus had been healed up fully... well, almost. New scars, red and irritated, were present on his body from where he had been injured earlier, left on purpose of course. The samurai guards were quick to remind him that he had, more or less, crossed the line already but would be made to continue his exhibition matches as scheduled before being taken away forever. So he still had some time in the sun, if only to fight in combat. Something else that had been stressed to him was that what he would face next was not some inexperienced genin, but instead highly trained shinobi. He was thus subsequently told that the need to hold back was much less important. Fine by him.

To the surprise of all, none more so than Proximus, Yoru immediately forfeited. The crowd let out a torrent of 'boos' and the masked giant was simply left standing in the arena, still and seemingly serene. He made no move to attack Yoru but instead looked on at him for a moment before turning his head skyward and looking up at the sky and clouds. This was, he knew, one of the last times he would see them, so he wanted to savor this moment. Even as the samurai who were guarding him came back out to put his chains back on, they themselves grumbling in disappointment over the result of this match, Proximus continued to stare at the sky. He did not stop until after he was lead away and brought back into the shadow of the arena, where his head would dip down. One step further from the sun.

The judges nodded understanding, and Sha would stand, "Yoru forfeits. Points to Iwagakure."
