The arena was set, the crowd was roaring, everyone was waiting for the next fight to take place. It was exciting, the heros fighting was an amazing event so far and everyone couldn't wait to see who would come out on top of it all. The next fight was a spectacle to be sure. Fighter Shrimp and Slumberland were next up and the stage was ready for them both. the electric fences were up and buzzing a menacing buzz. even though everyone knew that the damage from them was miniscule compared to what the heros would likely dish out to the other competitor, the image of them was enough to strike excitement into the crowds hearts. for the heros, it was a reminder that they had the option to either knock out or strike out and for the ranged fighters of this tourney, it meant that they had to be careful too. It was amazing. It was beautiful. It was all about to begin

A roar from the announcer would be heard as he gathered everyone's attention. He was a man who needed no microphone or introduction, but he's reiterate anyway. "Roaring Tigre here." He'd beckon one hand to Slumberland, "On one end we have Slumberland, a hero known for his wrestling prowess and size." A hand beckoning to Fighter Shrimp, he- "On this end we have Fighter Shrimp. Saying he packs a punch is an extreme understatement." With both hands up, he'd address them both briefly.
"We want a nice clean fight, and above all else we want to be entertained. If both sides are prepared, then without a further a do.... FIGHT!" In the instant he said fight, he jumped back a few meters to give both heroes space to rumble.

Slumberland stood across from his opponent. Fighter Shrimp, a hero who had the power to punch like a mantis shrimp. Slumberland wasn't into biology, but even he was aware of the furious punch of that aquatic animal. He wasn't sure if Fighter Shrimp had any other powers, outside of just punching super hard. Looking sidelong at the electrified fences Slumberland knew that while he could likely withstand the punches, it was the knockback that would be the issue.
But that was simply his tactics of his hero mind going through things. This wasn't a dangerous situation; and honestly he had been itching to get some of his wrestling persona out there a bit more. Flexing at his introduction by the announcer, Slumberland would curl his arms in, while puffing up his upper body and arms, before raising them and gesturing for the crowd to get louder. Sure enough, some of his fans began to chant, as Slumberland shifted to Memory Foam Form. He'd give a good show, and Memory Foam Form was his next best to avoid the intense knockback from any fist while possibly catching his fist. "Let's give'm a Good Show Shrimp!" Slumberland shouted, as he walked forward menacingly, massive arms swaying as the confident number 9 hero stepped forward with true GUSTO!~

Fighter Shrimp smirks as he stood across of Slumberland, the American wrestler hero. He's heard tales of him, for sure. He was always up to speed with the entertainment biz, and wrestling was a HUGE part of it, both Japanese and American. So to stand before a wrestling legend... it made him a bit giddy. He was grinning with ferocious glee, skipping on his feet back and forth as he threw a few normal, friendly jabs in the air.
"Wouldn't have it any other way big man! Just hope you got enough cushion for the pushing~!"
He grinned at his own pun, before he'd make a small jump off his feet, kick his heels together, and his jet-powered boots would fire up in a brilliant blue flame at his heels, and once he'd land he'd take off! Zooming towards Slumberland with rocket-fueled speed, he'd zig-zag and hone in towards his midriff, but in the last moment he'd make only his left-foot boot flare up with another rocket boost, and he'd quickly feint to Slumberland's left side with a rapid side-step, his right arm vibrating as he powered up a strike;
Shrimp Killer Fists: 20 Kiloton Punch!"
He'd thrust his right arm with the velocity of a bullet right towards Slumberland's left side, right into the side of his abdomen, and while Slumberland would only be able to SEE one punch being thrown, if he'd underestimate Fighter Shrimp, he'd soon feel like it was not one, but TWENTY super-powered punches being drilled into his side at once!

Slumberland only laughed heartily as Fighter Shrimp made his comment and spirit clear to the wrestler. "LET'S GO!" He was about to burst into a charge when Shrimp made the first move, flying at him in the blink of an eye! Immediately Slumberland went for a grapple, only to see the rocket-fueled hero zig-zag out from under his left hand, dodging and weaving like a boxer strapped to rocket boots, which Fighter shrimp essentially was! Seeing the movement and vibration of Shrimp's right arm, Slumberland knew he couldn't dodge, but he also couldn't afford to take the hit without being sent flying.... so the only other option was to do the opposite of what he had initially planned.
As the fist struck it's target, Slumberland shifted to Feather Form, something that allowed Slumberland to greatly reduce damage at the cost of being unable to deal damage, and could easily result in him flying into the distance if he got careless.... but it's greatest asset was also the lack of density and rigidness! Twisting his body almost like one would a body pillow, Slumberland twirled, reaching around with his right hand to grab the shoulder of the shrimp, holding on tight to the hero's shoulder despite the softness that the fighter would feel.
Instead of flying, it was almost as thought Fighter Shrimp had swung at a curtain, hitting it, but outside of sending it flailing it clung onto it's holdfast point, flailing from the gust of wind created from the attack. "YOU'LL FIND I HAVE MORE THAN JUST CUSHION FIGHTER SHRIMP!" Slumberland boasted, his body twisting in the air, before it began to unwind, and at the same time Slumberland was already attempting to perform a grapple to restrain the shrimp's left shoulder and arm! "Why don't we find you a Straight Jacket!" He stated, aiming to perform a modified version of one of his grapples, the Straight Jacket Lariat.
Honestly Slumberland wasn't going to lie. He could almost feel the wind having been knocked out of him thanks to the strike. If he had chosen any other form than Feather, he'd likely have not even been able to talk. That in combination with the concussive reducing suit he wore had barely allowed him to yell that out. Still, now he was a bit at a disadvantage. He was stuck unable to do damage, but able to dodge and bend in weird angles. Perhaps if he could wear out the shrimp he could stand a better chance in this match. The question was which would happen first. Would Shrimp knock him into the electric fence, or would he wear the fighter down and give him a good night's rest!

What? Had he struck a curtain all of a sudden? Slumberland's body composition changed on the fly as he suddenly seemed to unwind and become twisting and loose, as if he was just a piece of linen flowing in the wind! He felt a grip on his left shoulder which was surprisingly firm, as the pillowy hero had now latched onto him. But still, in such a weightless and fluttery state, he seemed to be even more at the mercy of motion than ever. Maybe he could...!
Grinning wildly up to his face, he simply stomps his left foot down firmly into the ground, his left jet-boot roaring into full blast as he allowed himself to relax, and be caught up in the boot's jet-burst, and twirl up and around as he'd jump into the air and, with the jet engine still blasting, proceeded to whirl and twist around rapidly and repeatedly, essentially making him perform a prolonged and violently rapid "windmill kick" in mid-air! With such momentum and force, could Slumberland's new weightless, fluttering form still hold onto him? Or would the force be too much and send him tumbling through the air?

"Action left and right, Fighter Shrimp starts the fight out with a opening super move, his 20 kiloton punch. There's a lot more to that than meets the eye." Speed waved his arms to the crowd. "It's not what it seems, but Slumberland has an answer. Look at that transformation! Remember Slumberland can alter his body to different states." He wanted this to be informative but also let the fight speak for itself. He looked to the crowd with a smile. It was amazing to be a part of something like this.
"As fighter Shrimp readies this new attack, how will Slumberland respond?"

It was a clever move from Fighter Shrimp. In a sense thanks to slumberland's boots which couldn't exactly shift states basically meant he was forced to swing with the spin, his grip beginning to loosen as the shrimp began to prepare an attack. Normally, if he was stuck being a feather weight hero, then he'd definitely would be in trouble.... but he wasn't stuck in feather form anymore, his cooldown being rapid enough he could shift form at the apex of the rise and spin!
Shifting back to Rubber form, Slumberland's weight increased significantly, and with that so did his grip. Instead of firm it was now a rough grip on the boxer's shoulder, before Slumberland let go! He went flying, avoiding the windmill kick as he literally bounced on the ground, like some sort of rubber ball spinning before performing a backflip into a solid landing. He felt the world spin for a second, but without a doubt he assumed that shrimp was too. The only difference being that of the two of them Slumberland was far more confident in his ability to regain his footing. Behind him the electric fence waited for it's victim. At this point there was no way to avoid not being knocked into it if he was struck.
"Not bad Shrimpy, but I'm sure you're feeling a bit dizzy. Need a hand?" He stated, as he barreled forwards unlike his first charge at the man. With his form entering Rubber Form, he was able to deal damage once more, but the more important part was that this time he would enlarge his left arm, his hand growing massive as he prepared to slap the hero down from mid air while he was likely dizzy.
