{This was supposed to be Juno/Verdant V Nathan/Stella, but I found out that they were not on a team, they've been replaced by Malina/Carmine)
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!" A Booming and energetic voice explodes through the speakers set up around the enormous stadium. A deep and gravely voice, like someone who spent too much time smoking and decided now would be a good time to start screaming for their entire life. "WELCOME TO THE VYTAL FESTIVAL'S FIRST ROUND OF PAIRED MATCHES!" The crowd erupted into a ceremonious cheer, whoops and hollers came from all corners of Remnant as people tuned into the match from home. "I AM YOUR ANNOUNCER, VULCO DENTRES, BUT I THINK AT THIS POINT, YOU ALREADY KNOW THAT. I MEAN, REALLY, IF MY VOICE HASN'T BEEN HEARD BY ALL YOU F ҉ ҉ KERS-" A loud, annoying BEEEP filled the arena. Of course, this of all events was kid friendly. "- ALREADY, i WOULD BE SURPRISED.ANYWAY, ONTO THE COMBAT! PREPARE YOURSELVES, IN THIS FIRST ROUND, WE'VE GOT TWO PAIRS FROM BEACON- HEY DO YOU GUYS FIND IT SUSPICIOUS THAT BEACON HAS WAY MORE COMBATANTS THAN ANY OTHER ACADEMY? YES, DEREK, I KNOW I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO SAY THAT... NO I'M NOT GOING TO STOP... YES, I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE FOR YOU TO F ҉ ҉ K OFF, DEREK. JESUS, SOME PEOPLE, AM I RIGHT!? ANYWAY, OUR FIRST PAIR IS JUNO VERT AND VERDANT COWL, MEMBERS OF TEAM VCVS. GOD DAMN, THAT'S AN EXPLOSIVE TEAM NAME! AND THE OTHER TEAM, WITH A SIGNIFICANTLY LESS EXPLOSIVE NAME, MALINA NAHUALLI AND CARMINE SANTIAGO! THAT GIRL HAS A SCORPION TAIL ON HER ASS AND THAT IS NOT OKAY! THAT IS BREAKING THE RULES OF NATURE AND TO BE HONEST, I'M A LITTLE UNCOMFORTABLE. DEREK! GET ME AN ADULT! WHAT? I KNOW I'M AN ADULT, GET ME A BIGGER ADULT.... JUST DO IT! ANYWAY, ENOUGH ABOUT THEM, LET'S GO TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL SPINNER! NO, DEREK, I WILL NOT MAKE THE SAME JOKE TWICE. WHAT AM I, SOME LOW RATE COMEDIAN?" After a brief moment, the crowed cheered, albeit halfheartedly.
A large holographic image of a lottery machine appears on all sides of the arena, with two spinners. The spinners spun so quickly, making it nearly impossible to make out the passing words. It ticked through the options slower and slower until it finally stopped on Lava and Mountain.
A loud laugh came from the speakers. "LAVA AND MOUNTAIN, HOW FITTING IS THAT, AM I RRRRRRRRRRRIGHT!? I'M A TIGER-MAN!"
The floor of the arena lowered and, in its place, arose two new floors. Juno and Verdant's half was a mostly intact floor of cracked cooled off lava, with lava pools littered around, and Nathan and Stella's half became a large mountain with a few trees littered around. Though now, instead of a waterfall, the mountain was spewing lava and most of the trees had caught fire. (Malina and Carmine will start atop the mountain)
Just then, the doors on each side of the arena opened and, from them, out strolled the combatants.
(A coin flip decided Juno and Verdant get the first posts. The arena size is that of the 2v2 arena in the show, and features scaled down biomes. Good luck, contestants.)
