I looked down at my new gloves as I made my way towards the meeting place. Reassuring myself, I opened and closed my hands a few times. The challenge to fight had been made anonymously. I wasn't exactly sure who my challenger was, but I wasn't too worried. I had faith in myself. I was a strong, confident fighter. And my skills had only been getting better as of late. It was almost scary how quickly I was advancing lately. Since of course... I got the title of the Third Pillar while wearing my mask, I was dressed in my black outfit. Mask and all. As I stepped into the courtyard, I felt my heart sink as I saw who my opponent would be. "Allen..." I whispered the name under my breath, feeling my chest tighten. I had to fight the kid who saved my life? The kid I had been avoiding ever since he went to the hospital because I wasn't good enough? Damn... fate was a bitch.

Allen stepped off the fountain, walking over and grabbing a fistful of the masked mans shirt, pulling him in close.
"What the fuck is wrong with you? Picking fights with Riot? They are gonna come down on us even harder now, you idiot!"
He'd shove masked-shugo away, entirely unaware of the identity under the black coverings. Yes, he had issued the challenge- but he had not made it known whether it was for a Pillar title. Allen wasn't a work up kinda guy. He liked to strike at the head. Unfortunately, he struggled with Leon, and Leon struggled with Austin so...he had to get stronger first.
"Tell me who you are. Now. And why you are doing this."

"I..."
Dammit... I guess I was getting too egotistical. I gave Leon this same exact speech up on the rooftop about challenging the regulators. But this was different. The regulators were here to help us. I had already received information that Riot was going to come back to 552. Even if they weren't going to attack 552, they were god awful people. Someone had to put a stop to them. I let Allen shove me away, stumbling slightly before I balanced myself. I looked over to him and spoke in a slightly deeper voice.
"Riot was going to attack the school sooner or later anyways. The information I gathered said as much. Furthermore even if Riot wasn't go to attack the school anyways, someone had to put an end to them and their illegal activities."
I took a deep breath, feeling some of the pressure from my chest relieve itself. He asked who I was? For the first time since I put this mask on, I felt compelled to tell him. I owed it to him didn't I? After all... it was my fault he almost died. I just couldn't muster the guts to say it myself, I couldn't even mask my voice this time.
"I'm just the guy who's trying to make sure a friend doesn't have to take a knife for another friend's mistake."

Allen stared, his eyebrows coming down. He was silent for several seconds, not indicating whether he grasped the meaning of that or not.
"I'm challenging you for your title as Third Pillar. Fight me."
He would wait for the male to accept.
