The last of her defenses goes down. You look at each other in silence for a few seconds before the realisation kicks in.
The girl falls to her knees. "I...I lost".
A rush of adrenaline fills your brain, and it takes all your self control to stop yourself from exulting in front of the person you've doomed. She clutches her arm socket tight and finally breaks down. You can barely hear her say "it's not right...they promised... it's not right...".
Before you can say anything, your excitement is replaced by an oppressive feeling of dread. The shades are gathering around your opponent. She screams, then she's consumed by darkness. There's only silence. Your opponent and the spectators are gone. Your head starts spinning, and soon you pass out.
You wake up in a dark alley. You are alone. Your memories are slowly coming back to you. This is where you and your opponent agreed to meet online. Somehow, you were transported to that place right after you met.
Something on the ground catches your attention. A card. You pick it up and examine it. On the top it says "Causality Cruiser".
You sit in the alley for almost an hour, stunned. Then you get up and head back home, where your prize awaits you.
