Megatron finally takes his place in his seat. It sure took the Emperor long enough to get here, as the crowd is already restless. The holo-vid changes to Megatron's steely mug as he addresses the contestants inside the arena. Megatron's voice carries through the arena on the loudspeakers as he rasps, "Decepticons. The Gladiatorial combat event is over. Taking second place is Starscream. First place went to Nitrogear." Though cheers are heard for the Air commander, the arena erupts at the mention of the tournament underdog's name. Megatron dismisses further cheering with a wave of his palm, indicating he's ready to announce the next event. Megatron pushes a button he's had ready since the start of the fight, and large doors begin open to in the side of the arena.
