just something I'm trying out

Long ago there had been a time when humans had ruled the world. But no longer. During the collapse of the human race the Geldrooks came from the sky. They overwhelmed the woefully overmatched human forces and quickly took them under their rule. Now several thousand years later the world has been reshaped to the desire of the Geldrook elders. Human armies or governments were no longer allowed. But due to the Geldrooks job assignments based on your skills, knowledge and physical abilities there were a select few humans trained as warriors. One such warrior was Landon Entei. Landon had been genetically designed to be the humans supreme warrior. He was faster, stronger, quicker witted and mentally sharper then any other human. And currently he was training unarmed combat which the Geldrooks had named Kilishka and he was also training in the melee weapon art named Kaluma. Why was he training? That is a detail soon to be revealed. You see the Elders were rather fond of fighting contests especially between humans. They fond them amusing. You see the Elders were four of the oldest and wisest Geldrooks who ran their race in their positions of power. They were Gnardak, Sem, Glar and Sendring. It was they who reformed the Earth. It was they who had created Landon. And now they were to create the greatest tournament in the history of history. Warriors from different time periods throughout Earth's history would battle it out in the Super Dome. Names like King Arthur and Lancelot, Genghis Khan, Attila the Hun,King Leonidas of Sparta, Blackbeard, Jesse James, Al Capone, Teddy Roosevelt, Helio Gracie, Anatoly Kharlapiyev, Jon Jones and Floyd Mayweather Junior. Among others. They would be broken up into divisions, hand to hand, melee and firearms and the winner of each division would move on to the next. Should the revived warriors win the tournament they will be granted a shot at life once more. Over the course of a year the warriors were revived, brought up to speed on the current world and began their training in their own specialized combat. The brackets were broken down thusly, Hand to Hand: Helio Gracie, Anatoly Kharlapiyev, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Anthony Pettis, Jon Jones and Floyd Mayweather Junior with the winner of each fight being decided by knockout or submission and the losers being destroyed immedietly. Melee: Blackbeard, King Arthur, Lancelot, Attila, Leonidas, Genghis Khan,Alexander the Great and Landon. With the winners being determined by who kills the other. And the firearm consisting of Teddy Roosevelt, Anny Oakley, Jesse James, Al Capone and a US Green Beret and Russian Spetzna. The arena had been split up by a plexiglass like material separating the combatants. The tournament had split the combatants up into one on one matches starting with hand to hand and ending with firearms. Helio Gracie would face Anatoly Kharlapiyev. Khabib Nurmagomedov would face Anthony Pettis and Jon Jones would face Floyd Mayweather. These men being deemed the best at their art. After each match ended the wall would come down to send two winners against eachother. The actions starts with Helio and Anatoly the founder of Brazillian Jiu Jitsu vs the founder of Sambo. Anatoly dives in to lift Helio up who turns to his side and climbs onto the back of Anatoly and goes for a choke before being shrugged off and pinned to the ground where he was repeatedly elbowed in the head until Helio locked on an armbar and cranked on it. Anatoly wouldn't tap but his arm broke at the elbow and Helio let go and when he did was suckerpunched on the jaw and went down unconscious. Winner: Anatoly. Next we go to The Sambo black belt Khabib vs the Tae Kwon Do blackbelt Pettis. Pettis coming out landing a series of kicks until he is grounded by the bigger Russian who locks on a vicious choke hold. Pettis works up to his feat but is slammed down on his neck a series of times then lays still.. Unmoving dead from a broken neck. The wall came down and Khabib moved in on the man who invented his sport. Meanwhile Mayweather was moving in and out peppering Jones with jabs until he was dropped with a huge knee. Jones runs in and hits Khabib from behind once his wall comes down and like that its a three man match. Khabib spin around just in time to catch a kick from Jones and he landed a huge slam which stunned him before he himself was slammed by Anatoly. Anatoly went over and stomped the throat of Jones, destroying his trachea and making him drown in his own blood. Before Anatoly could turn around Khabib had come up behind him and grabbed him by the neck and cranked on it until CRACK the neck broke and the Sambo creator fell dead. Two kills for Khabib and he is the champion of the unarmed combat. While the other combatants would be erased from current existence Khabib would be allowed to live and he went straight into training for the next series. After the arena was reset the matches were announced as Blackbeard vs Lancelot, King Arthur vs Attila, Leonidas vs Genghis Khan and Alexander the Great vs Landon. The first match had Blackbeard coming out with his cutlass against the hand and a half sword and dagger combo of Lancelot. After they circled eachother Blackbeard kicked dirt at Lancelot and launched an attack while Lancelot parried and backed away. Blackbeard leapt up to slash down at Lancelot's head when he stopped in his tracks with a sword through his chest. Winner: Lancelot. The second match saw both men coming out with swords and saw Arthur counter Attila's brute force and aggressiveness with calm calculated movements. After three minutes Attila had a series of cuts covering his body while Arthur was scratch free. Attila went for broke and bullrushed Arthur who sidestepped and slashed behind him into the back of the neck of Attila who stiffened up in shock. Arthur surged forward and drove his sword through the back of Attila. Winner: Arthur. The third match saw Leonidas come out with sword, spear and shield while his opponent came with mace, sword and spear. Genghis thrusted his spear at Leonidas who covered up behind his broad shield. The spear went upward and Leonidas reached up and caught it and smashed it down onto the top of the shield and broke it. He lunged forward with his spear and caught Genghis in the knee before he ducked a wild swing of the mace by Genghis who got stuck again by the Spartan's spear this time in the stomach. Another wild swing another quick stab. Finally the Mongol began to slow when the spear through pierced him in the shoulder. He ripped the spear out and drew his sword only to feel Leonidas' blade slice through his throat. he grabbed futilely at his throat to stop the bleeding but it was over. Winner: Leonidas.  Final first round match saw the sword wielding Alexander face the scimitar wielding Landon who ducked a slash and stabbed the Macedonian through the throat earning the fastest win yet in the tournament. The 2nd round match first saw Lancelot vs his King. Arthur. Lancelot went to shake his friends hand only to have a dagger drove into his neck while his head was bent. Winner: Arthur. The 2nd match of the 2nd round saw Leonidas vs Landon. The Spartan came out aggressive but after he attempted to shield bash Landon he had the shield put behind his back and the shield wrenched up before he was decapitated from behind. Winner: Landon who moved on and quickly defeated Arthur with the first blow of the match. Melee tournament winner: Landon. Now the firearms tournament was more difficult.. Instead of just the walls there were obstacles included and more of the Super Dome was used. The first round  matches would see Teddy Roosevelt vs Anny Oakley, Jesse James vs Al Capone and a US Green Beret vs a Russian Spetzna. Oakley wielded a rifle, Roosevelt a shotgun, James wielding his trademark six shooters, Capone a revolver and Thompson machine gun and the Green Beret would wield an AR-15 carbine and a Glock while the Spetzna would wield weapons whose names had been lost in history. The first match saw the sharpshooter Oakley looking for the longshot while Roosevelt crept from obstacle to obstacle. She drew up on what she though was him but was really his hat which he had set as a decoy and when she fired at that he came up behind her and blasted her in the chest. Winner:Teddy. Jesse James came out sneaking from spot to spot guns in hand while Capone plowed forward. James fired shots which just barely missed and when Capone spotted him he unloaded the 30 plus round clip in his direction and James dropped. Capone went over with his revolver to finish the job when a possum playing James shot him between the eyes. Winner: Jesse James. The battle of Green Beret and Spetzna dragged as each warrior would roll from cover to cover firing from behind said cover. Finally the Green Beret got angry and tossed a grenade at the Spetzna. Winner by disqualification: Spetzna with both warriors being terminated. Roosevelt was outgunned in the finals and the six shooter wielding bandit emerged victorious. Firearms winner: Jesse James. The final round would pit the three champions against eachother in an anything goes match. All weapons allowed. James went and ducked into one of the cave obstacles and waited, Winchester in hand. Landon meanwhile stalked the battlefield, energy sword and plasma blaster in hand when he was hit from behind by the Russian grappler Nurmagomedov. Landon dropped his weapons and went hand to hand with the Russian, reversing a throw and tossing the Russian who was then thrown repeatedly into the rocks before mercifully being executed by plasma blaster. The overmatched grappler gone Landon pressed forward now re armed. James emerges from the cave firing wildly before being swiftly dispatched via energy sword. Tournament WINNER:Landon.
