Ryan and Red's sparring match is up
Red vs Ryan
"Woah!" Ryan yelped and dropped to the floor as the kid leaped at him. Red flew over him and Ryan quickly rolled to his feet.
"Were we supposed to start yet?" He asked, but when Superboy gave no indication that he was going to answer Ryan simply set himself and waited for the next charge.
--
Red was annoyed when his opponent ducked down and caused him to miss his target. He gracefully landed on both of his feet and spun around at incredible speeds. He then crouched down and leaped again at Ryan, this time with the intention of kicking the man in the gut.
"Come on! Let's fight seriously!" he shouted as he kicked out hoping to make contact this time with his attack.
--
Set or not, Red moved way faster than he'd expected and the kick knocked him back several paces. With the breath knocked out of him Ryan barely had a moment to grab Red's leg.
"Alright," he growled. "You want a fight, fine." With a thought and an exertion of power Red was suddenly 'falling' toward the ceiling as Ryan changed his gravitating orientation by 180 degrees.
--
Red was glad to see that his kick got through, but his triumph quickly turned to shock when he suddenly found himself falling towards the ceiling of the base. What the bear was going on? he thought to himself as he slammed into the ceiling. It must have been Ryan's power that did this and now Red had to think of a way to bring things back to normal and get his feet back on the ground.
"I guess I'll to use a Primal Blast" he said to himself and then shoved out his right palm in Ryan's direction. Almost immediately following the motion a bright orange blast of energy shot from his hands and headed straight for the man at incredible speeds. This blast was concussive since Red thought that making it heat might be too dangerous and also maybe a concussive blast would be enough to make him lose focus on this strange effect and get Red back on the ground.
--
Red hit the ceiling hard and Ryan winced but the kid bounced up pretty quick and returned fire!
"Oh feck me," he swore and quickly switched his own orientation. He was suddenly falling toward the ceiling but didn't clear the strange blast entirely. It struck his legs and luckily didn't shatter the bones because he was floating in the air instead of standing on solid ground.
The force of the blast did send him spinning wildly though, and instead of landing gracefully on his feet as he had intended he slammed into the ceiling flat on his back, further aggravating his already abused lungs.
A wave of his hand set the area for thirty feet around him at 3 times Earths normal gravity and he backpedaled as fast as he could, trying to put some distance between him and Red until he could catch his breath.
--
Red growled when he saw that his attack didn't hit Ryan enough to make him lose concentration over this weird ability, but he did however cause him to fly into the ceiling as well and he would try to capitalize off of that. He felt the gravity around him become much heavier so Red focused his energy into keeping his body super-humanly strong and then proceeded to dig his fingers into the stone ceiling to make to himself a grip for his hands.
"Here I come strange guy!" he shouted and then began to quickly move towards Ryan as he used his superhuman strength to crawl on his hands and knees like some predatory wildcat. Once he closed the distance Red would then try to attack him at close range again and see if he could end this effect and get back on the ground, that is unless Ryan is able to stop his movement before Red could get to him.
I mustn't lose! I will fight Superboy when these fights are all done, he said inwardly as he continued to crawl quickly towards Ryan with pure determination in his eyes.
--
"Feck me sideways," Ryan groaned and scrambled to his feet when three g's did little to slow the pint sized hero down. Red continued to approach him, a serious glint of something in his gaze and as he got a little closer Ryan aimed a couple kicks in his direction before jumping suddenly to Red's left side and lashing out with a kick toward his unprotected ribs.
As the kick started he wrapped five g's worth of gravitational force around his foot, effectively turning his kick into a battering ram. Oh, please don' let me kill 'im he thought. That would not be a good way to start his tenure with the Young Justice.
--
Red gave a grunt of pain as Ryan's heavy blows hit with a great amount of force and he felt a good deal of pain, but it didn't do enough damage to take him out of the fight. The pain caused him to retaliate and he lashed out wildly with his arms hoping to land at least one very strong hit to the man, especially now that Red had felt a lot pain from his opponent's attacks.
"You're going down buddy!" he shouted and continued on with his assault trying to strike as quickly as his fast arms would allow. His attack pattern was wild and unpredictable like an angry feral animal that had been backed into a corner and chose to fight. Red was going to try to win even if it seriously injured him.
--
"Good chocolate Christ on a cracker!" Ryan yelped and jumped back, narrowly avoiding several wild haymakers. "Jesus, Kid, yer gonna hurt someone. Prob'ly me." When Red didn't respond Ryan made a quick decision and returned Red's gravity to normal, letting him suddenly fall back to the ground.
"Oi, ye little lunatic! I forfiet. Supposed ta be a sparrin' match, not a bluddy duel ta tha death."
"Jesus H Christ," he muttered under his breath and flopped down onto his back, staring 'up' at the rest of them. "What?" He asked. "It's safer fer me up here I tink." He pulled out his tobacco pouch and quickly rolled himself another cigarette which he lit and settled in, so he could watch the next bout while nursing his bruised body and pride.
--
Red wasn't expecting for the gravity to be set back to normal so before he could get a grip on the ceiling he fell back down to the ground. When Red landed and prepared himself to jump back up at his teammate he heard Ryan say that he forfeit and then went a small rant about it being just a sparring match.
Red was confused at his opponent's angry response, this was meant to be practice and that meant that they should be pushing themselves to their limits. Oh well he still technically won, which means he would be advancing in the little tournament and was now one step closer to fight Superboy.
"Thanks for the fight" he said to Ryan with a happy grin giving him the thunbs up and turned to look at the others to how they were doing with matches.

Whoops. I've got Mai'lo walking away. Someone wanna stop him? Or I can edit my post.
By the time the last of the monsters had died Mai'lo sat heavily on the ground, his pristine sword laying on the grass next to him. For some reason it felt wrong that there should be no evidence of the battle they just went through. No blood stained his clothes or his blade. No bodies remained on the ground.
Even Matsuta. Crazy as he might have been, had left no sign that he ever existed.
"You know what the difference is between humans and animals?" He asked of no one in particular. "WE BURY OUR DEAD!" He suddenly screamed at the empty digital sky above. "It's this what happens when we die in here? We just vanish? Vanish, with nothing left behind to show that we were even here to begin with?"
"If we're alone when we die that's it. No one will ever know. There won't be a body to discover. Our friends could think we just abandoned them. Took off and left them. They could hate us. And there would be nothing to tell them otherwise."
The more he thought about it the more it bothered him. He swiped open the menu and selected several items from his inventory. Some rope and an animal hide and a jar with a dye in it.
He quickly fashioned a rough sign, wiring on the hide with the dye.
On this spot we lost a friend. Matsuta was the only name we knew him by. We will not forget.
Grabbing his sword he stood and slammed it point first into the ground burying a good foot of the blade, then he hung the sign from the pommel.
"It won't last for long, but nothing lasts forever. That's better than nothing."
Without another word Mai'lo turned and continued walking down the road, scabbard empty on his broad back.

We're almost done with the fight. Sorry for the delay gang.
Name: Gareth
Gender: Male
Age: 30
Appearance:
Minus the glasses and the sword strapped to his back.
Personality: hot headed but a survivor. He's not happy that so many are dead, but at the same time he's thrilled that his preparing for the Zombie apocalypse had finally been proven as a smart move instead of stupid, as so many people told him.
Weapon of choice: two well cared for Kuhkri.
Bio: He grew up in Northern Wisconsin, way north. Little college town with s population of nine thousand people. He always felt it was only a matter of time before some idiot in a government lab created something that would cause a zombie like outbreak and when he discovered Z.O.R.T he was thrilled to find people in a similar train of thought.
After the outbreak he put the skills he'd practiced to use and has been keeping himself alive.

In Soviet Aincrad, you don't hunt bear, bear hunts you. So I guess Iris, Cin, Mai'lo, Sapphira, Kip, Tsu and now Visionary (Ken) are all in the same area?
By the way, I totally read that in a Russian accent. Lol
"Hey, thanks." Mai'lo caught the potion out of the air and downed it as fast as he could and jumped to his feet as his health bar filled up entirely.
The kid who threw him the potion blocked a bears strike with a slim two handed sword and he grinned, rushing forward to deliver another vertical strike to the extended limb. Half the bears arm flew away only to shatter in the air and he leaped back, dragging his sword back and our of the way with him as the bears health bar dropped into the red.
"Switch," he yelled. "All you buddy."
