Amity Colosseum

The scene opened of the Amity Colosseum's mountain biome being bombarded by several explosions all around the area. Russel, daggers in hand, is running from the mayhem before spinning around, ready to face his opponents, who turns out to be the familiar face of Penny and her beret-wearing teammate.

With an ever-present smile and simple arm movements, she summons six floating swords from behind her and rears them back before launching them in a ring at Russel, who barely manages to duck behind a rock to protect himself

Wasting no time, Penny does the same thing with another group of blades, homing in on the other CRDL teammate Sky until he uses his own halberd to vault over another stone for defense.

The two exchange a worried look at the sight of their rocks still pierced with multiple blades, and Penny grins in combat-ready fierceness as she looks to her partner, who simply taps her watch as if hurrying Penny up.

Wasting no time, Penny raises her hands like a puppet master and uses the near-invisible strings attached to each hilt to lift the giant rocks up in the air, with the screaming Russel and Sky still hanging on. Bringing her arms down to her sides, the stones come crashing to the ground as well, leaving Penny's opponents in the grass. Her swords come back to her pack as the buzzer rings.

"And victory goes to Penny and Ciel of Atlas!" Oobleck announced.

"Thank you for a wonderful time." Penny said, bowing in respect to her fallen foes.

The two victors turn to leave the stadium as Russel feebly reaches out, only to get hit in the head by an errant stone.

Watching from the stands, Ruby sees them start to walk away and excitedly gets up form her seat with the rest of her team to meet them at one of the exits.

"Penny!" Ruby cried, catching up to them.

"Ruby!" Penny shouted excitedly, lifting up her own arms, she tackles her friend into a hug that leaves them both of them on the ground.

"Why..." Ruby groaned in pain.

"Ruby, this is my teammate." Penny explained, gesturing to Her partner.
