    "What a night it's been for Blood Sports! We've had some of the greatest assassins, killers, mercenaries from across the Empire, as well as our fare share of crazies and hopefuls show up and introduce themselves here tonight!"
    "That's right Jer, and yet we're still missing one illusive figure here tonight. Rumours have been circling across the net, across the crowd here tonight and across all the Blood Sport fans. Is Sideos going to show?"
    "That's a question that remains to be seen, Coul. We've still got one more contender to reveal and who knows, maybe we'll be lucky and see Sideos here tonight."
    The arena was a massive construct, holding at least one hundred thousand irkens, all of them cheering and clapping for the people standing on the main state. There were about thirty people on the stage, though plenty more had been confirmed but had not shown up for one reason or another.
    Some of those who had shown up were rather well known and many irkens had brought banners to hold up, even chanting the name of some of them as they had walked onto the stage and given their introduction.
    There was a giant screen behind the main stage, on it showed information about the competitors, as well as videos detailing the planet Nahara, the competitors and champions of the past and basically giving out info for whenever the two presenters, Coul and Jer, talked so that everyone in the arena could see.
    The only thing that separated the crowed was a narrow stretch along the middle of the arena from where the contestants could walk along and up to the stage from the locker rooms below.
    All of it was designed to be as flashy as possible in classic Irken hype form.
    Jer was a tall, chubby looking irken with tanned green skin while his fellow presenter, Coul, was smaller, slimmer with paler green skin. Both had large red and black robes with the single visor across the eyes.
    They stood at the edge of the stage, addressing the huge crowd before them. Jer spoke up quickly and loudly into his microphone. "Well, as we said, we have one more contestant to reveal to you guys here tonight, so, without further ado. Bring them out here!"
    There was a notable pause, where the audience seemed tense and the two announcers didn't seem to know if this was on purpose or not, then suddenly, the whole arena went black with the exception of the large screen.
    It was black for the moment, then suddenly, the entire arena burst into a loud scream and the screeching of rock music was heard. Lights flashed and the huge screen shone images of a certain purple eye'd irken killing various people, obviously image taken from news reels.
    Then, as the crowd roared in excitement, there he stepped out, walking casually out of entrance and looking around as a spotlight fell onto him.
    Sideos.
    The crowd went absolutely insane. The roar was almost deafening, almost drowning out the music playing loudly but only causing the irken killer to smile slowly, revealing those shark-like teeth.
    He suddenly threw up his arms, the brown cloak he was wearing flying back and revealing his black and white striped top and one could see him mouth the words "THE ORIGINAL!"
    The crowd seemed to eat up every step, every wild eye'd glance. He walked along the walkway with his hands out, those terrible claws stretched casually to the people on either side of him. Irkens reached forward over the railing, desperate to touch him, to high-five him or just grab something from this moment.
    He quickly got up onto the stage, running and leaping onto it rather than taking the few staircases before turning around to the roaring audience.
    Sideos suddenly climbed up on one cameras floating near to him and help his arms up once more, the black and white shirt being revealed again and screamed out to the crowd, "BEST IN THE EMPIRE!"
    There wasn't a butt on a seat in the house. Every eye on was on the irken, the killer who seemed to have stolen the support of everyone in the arena. The rock music, the lights, the very AIR seemed to scream with excitement and power and the magnetism of the thin irken standing on the camera, arms held out to the screaming crowd.
    Suddenly the presenters remembered they were supposed to be presenting and Coul quickly commented into the microphone, barely being heard over the music and crowd. "There he is! The most anticipated participant in Blood Sports history!"
    Sideos hopped of the camera and began side hopping across the arena, throwing his arms up in an attempt to make the crowd cheer LOUDER, if that was even possible.
    Jar quickly joined his fellow presenter. "Some have called him a monster, a demon and a defect. Others call him a idol, an inspiration, the King of the Royal Five."
    Coul quickly cut in. "I was talking to another competitor earlier today who said that it was because of Sideos that they decided to become a killer."
    "He has a legacy a mile wide but Blood Sports isn't a walk in the park." Jar quickly added with a wry smile. "The question is, can the so called King of Killers truly stand to this test?"
    Sideos seemed to have heard this little comment. He turned on Jar with narrowed eyes and quickly began storming over to him. The presenter froze as Sideos reached out to him... and snatched the microphone away. The presenter's whole body seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
    The music quickly died down as Sideos walked back over to the edge of the stage, looking out over the tens of thousands of irkens cheering for him. He slowly raised the mic to his mouth, however, a chant broke out and he grinned, letting his arm fall again.
    "SID-EE-OS! SID-EE-OS! SID-EE-OS!"
    He laughed and looked to one side for a moment before raising the mic again, the crowd quieting down. He grinned, flashing those sharp, shark-like teeth. "I'm BAAAAACK!"
    The crowd, once again, went insane.
    "DID YA MISS ME?" He shouted once more to the great elation of the crowd, who seemed to cheer and shout at his every word.
    He began walking across the stage slowly, pointing out to the masses. "Good! Because I think I've been away for a little too long and believe me guys, I've got a lot to say."
    The crowd cheered loudly, obviously eager to hear whatever the so called King of Killers had to offer.
    Sideos's smile dropped. "I've noticed in the last couple of years, people seem to be stealing my style." He growled slightly and shouted. "Have you guys noticed it? Psycho killers everywhere using MY claws, taking MY style. There wasn't even insane killers until I showed up!"
    The crowd obviously agree and cheered to show it.
    "There's been a lot of talk about who is the best killer in the Empire. I've sat back and watched the last two seasons of this show without stepping in, just sitting back and watching to see who comes out. But no more." Sideos grinned loudly at the reaction, the crowd once again chanting for him. He stopped his pacing to point and look directly into one of the cameras around him.
    "You copycat assholes think you're the best, well I've got news for you. You're not the best. I'm the best." Sideos looked down as he talked, pointing a sharp claw down as he did so and speaking loudly, and clearly, into the microphone. "I'm the best. I'm the best killer in the Empire."
    The crowd went nuts once more. Such a statement was one that they knew he could back up. The irken who had brought down the elite strike teams, inspired countless others and had redefined what a killer should be.
    He suddenly looked back up the crowd and shouted. "I AM THE KING OF KILLERS, I AM THE ORIGINAL, AND I SWEAR, I WILL WALK OUT OF BLOOD SPORTS AS ITS GREATEST CHAMPION."
    The arena erupted into cheers as Sideos walked back over to the edge, looking out over the masses with a cold, determined glare in his eyes. Again the chat started, "SID-EE-OS! SID-EE-OS! SID-EE-OS!"
    A small robot walked up beside him. It was the robot that had been sent to him as the invite to Blood Sports. On it's head the button was still blinking. All he had to do was press it and he'd be teleported there.
    Sideos tossed the microphone back at Jar before raising his arms up once again, as his music kicked back up. His audience now utterly behind him. He would go into this as a hero, the irken who should be locked up behind bars had just convinced over a hundred thousand people in one arena that he was their champion.
    Sideos suddenly looked to one camera and winked, mouthing the words 'love ya babe' and draw a Z across his heart. Then, he pressed the button, and in a flash of light, he was gone.
