The arena was empty and the bored crowds speculated wildly on the next match. A cloud of dust rose up in a puff as a bespectacled and confused looking japanese man fell from nowhere onto the arena floor. Picking up his sword... "Hello? Nice people? Where am I?"

A cute young girl wearing a short maid uniform walks through a dimensional rift as a duplicate of her walks back through.
"So you are my opponent? This should be fast." says the girl, checking a pocket watch.

"Welcome, fans, to the first match of this new division! This one should be exciting!" "I present to you Hiro Nakamura and Sakuya Izayoi!"The crowd cheers. "Now, before we begin, let's find out some more about the contestants! I have here with me Ando Masahashi and Remilia Scarlet. Tell me, Ando, what do you think Hiro's chances are here?"

Ando:"Oh, Hiro will win, he can stop time, so nobody can beat him..."
Hiro interrupts at this point, looking panicky, "Ando! She stops time too! I play the game! Many knifes!"
"Maybe I can get autograph after this.

Remilia smirks as she snatches the microphone. "You better not lose ! OR ITS DOUBLE YOUR CHORES! And dinner better not be late..."
Sayuka looks back with a stunned expression and bows deeply. "As you command, my Mistress."
Glancing back at Hiro, Sayuka sizes her opponent as she readies herself. "This should be over quick, even if you could stop time like me."

Barrier Expansion!There is a flash of light, then gears, ratchets, and all manner of mechanical components materialise around the combatants and start fitting together. They soon find themselves in the inside of a giant clock... though with perhaps more crushing gears and giant bladed pendulums than necessary. "Begin!"

Disappearing, Hiro reappeared behind Sakuya, katana scything towards her torso.

Sayuka smiles as the katana meets immediate resistance from a time-frozen knife placed between the katana and its target. Twisting on her lithe body, Sayuka spins and a knife flashes towards Hiro's neck.

Seeing the knife fly toward his face, Hiro closed his eyes, reappearing on a gear above Sakuya, before the gear rotated and placed him horizontal.
"Uh oh."

Kicking himself off the gear, Hiro plummeted, katana in a vertical swing before he disappeared again, and reappeared an inch above Sakuya, katana closing fast.

The katana sank into the gear they stood on a moment ago, Hiro landing breathlessly beside it. Getting up, he pulled at the katana and jerked to a stop, frantically trying to free the embedded blade.

Tapping Hiro on the shoulder, Sakuya teleports him to the furthest end of the arena opposite his katana. Gripping the handle, she pulls the blade out.
"Interesting...a real blade on an amateur..."

"Hey! My sword!"
Looking around frantically for an alternate weapon, Hiro fell flat upon the gear he was teleported to, eyes closed and spreadeagled.

Sakuya ignores what Hiro is doing, and begins to set up time-frozen knifes in an elaborate welcome-back trap.
