Nikolai was inside the locker room praying to God to give him strength and courage inside the octagon, he held the cross in his hands as he murmured his prayer. He then ended his prayer and put on the cross necklace, he entered waiting room only to see none other that Pyrrha Nikos inside. He had a surprised look on his face.

Nikolai: "Pyrrha?"

Pyrrha: "Hello again!~"

Nikolai: "What are you doing here?"

Pyrrha: "I just wanted to watch your second fight, seeing how much praise you've been given even after the first fight I'm just dying to find out"

Nikolai: "...I didn't think you found me that special"

Pyrrha: "After that friendly match I knew there was something special in you"

Nikolai: "Huh, never thought that"

Pyrrha: "Come on, let me help you warm up while we wait for your cue"

Pyrrha got the Thai pads going in front of Nikolai, he struck the pads with jabs, crosses, hooks and elbows warming up before the fight. He even got a few kicks in there as well, then the door opened to see the staff and security.

Staff 1: "Let's go kid, the fight is about to start"

Staff 2: "Miss Nikos, shouldn't you be on the VIP bleachers?"

Pyrrha: "Yes but I do wish to see Nikolai fight up close"

Nikolai: "Is that okay with you?"

Staff 1: "...I don't see why not, just stay stray from the camera miss Nikos"

Pyrrha: "Alright!"

Nikolai shadow boxed a in the waiting room as Sun Wukong was walking out of his waiting room.

-scene change-

Oobleck: "Welcome ladies and gentlemen to another fight night! Tonight we Sun Wukong, the trickster of the UFC against Nikolai Boyka, the mule of the octagon"

Tai: "What do you mean by "Mule" Bartholomew?"

Ghira: "Mules can pack a lot of damage with their legs"

Tai: "Oh, well anyways moving on. Sun Wukong is known to be a big time trickster in the ring always having something underneath his sleeves"

Ghira: "That is correct Mr Xiao Long and they don't call him a "trickster" for nothing, he is known for many creative knockouts taking out the likes of Lie Ren and Cardin Winchester"

Oobleck: "Let's see what he has in store for our Russian fighter"

Sun went onto the ring after being checked, he then did some tricking moves impressing the audience. He just smiled and bowed to everyone having a good time.

Nikolai walked out of his room feeling the fire inside of him just being fueled by determination and grit.

Ghira: "Now we may not know much about Nikolai Boyka, but we do know that he is one ferocious fighter"

Tai: "There is no argument there Ghira, Nikolai from the last fight pulled off devastating punches, has a defense of a wall and has fight ending kicks. He took out Nolan in one minute and seven seconds with a KO with some kind of double spin kick"

Oobleck: "He is a very acrobatic fighter and it doesn't seem to slow him down, let's see what he has in store for us"

Before Nikolai left into the cage he took off his cross necklace and handed it to Pyrrha.

Nikolai: "Please hold on to it"

Pyrrha: "Okay!"

Oobleck: "What's this? It seems like the undisputed champion Pyrrha Nikos is in the sidelines with the staff"

Tai: "Is she training the young man?"

Ghira: "Let's find out later, but now for introduction here is Peter Port"

-scene change-

Nikolai shook himself off as Port came into the ring.

Port: "Ladies and Gentlemen! This is! The main event of the evening! And when the action begins, the referee in charge of the octagon is Herb Dean. Aaaaaaaaand now! This is the moment UFC fans around the world have been waiting for! Live! At downtown Vale! Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit's time!"

The spotlight shined to the two fighters, Pyrrha watched Nikolai pacing a bit just eager to fight.

Pyrrha: "You'll do great Nik"

Nikolai: "I know, thank you"

Port: "Introducing first! Fighting in the blue corner! This man is a mix martial artist with the official record of fifteen wins and one loss, he stands six feet tall weighing one hundred seventy one pounds, fighting out of the Haven Division! Sun! The Trickster! Wukoooooooong!"

The crowd cheered for Sun as he blew a kiss to the crowd.

Port: "And now for his opponent! Fighting out of the red corner! This man is a kickboxer with the official record of one win and zero losses, he stands five feet eleven inches tall weighing one hundred seventy five pounds, fighting out of the Beacon Division! Nikolai! Boyyyyyyykaaaaa!"

Nikolai heard the crowd cheer for the new fighter in the UFC, he raised his fist up acknowledging the people cheering for him. Herb Dean then brought the two fighters together.

Herb: "You've been given your instructions in the dressing room: protect yourself at all cost, follow my instructions, you will have a clean fight, touch gloves if you wish"

The two touched gloves and went back to their corners. Herb pointed at Wukong.

Herb: "Are you ready?"

Sun nodded. Herb then pointed at Nikolai

Herb: "Are you ready?"

Nikolai nodded.

Herb: "Let's go!"

Nikolai and Sun went to the center of the ring and touched gloves, the two threw some jabs sizing each other up. Sun then went for a shuffle round house causing Nikolai to block with his palm and counter with a shuffle side kick knocking Sun a bit backwards, Sun then started throwing different attacks at Nikolai. Nikolai merely responded by blocking or dodging them and punched Wukong back.

Oobleck: "There is that showmanship from Nikolai dodging and blocking Wukong's attacks"

Nikolai started breaking down the base of the foundation, he started going for the leg kicks. Nikolai kicked Sun's right thigh and then the left, before he can go for the legs again Sun put him in a clench. Nikolai blocked the incoming knees and threw one of his own knees at Sun and took him down with a hip toss to an arm bar, before anything can happen the bell rang signifying the end of round one. The two went to their respective corners during their intermission.

Shade Staff: "This guy is a showman kid, try to capitalize any fancy moves"

Sun nodded as a pack of ice was rubbed on his chest.

Beacon Staff: "Keep on it Nik, take out the legs and continue from there"

Pyrrha then spoke from behind the octagon.

Pyrrha: "Sun is going to try and go for your legs, he is known for a lot of leg manipulations and trapping. That's how he defeated Ren and Cardin"

Nikolai nodded as he spat water into the bucket.

The two fighters got back up as they went back onto the center, Sun then threw a hook at Nikolai landing on his jaw and went for his leg. He spun onto the ground getting Nikolai lower and lifted his leg kicking him in the face making him go down, Nikolai regained his focus and kipped up onto his feet. Sun started to use his trapping on Nikolai throwing him off for the entirety of the round, whenever Nikolai threw a punch Sun caught it and counter attacked. Nikolai went for a hook which Sun caught with his leg and kneed his face.

Sun went for a ground and pound, Nikolai braced himself from the hits covering his face from the punches and elbows thrown by Sun. Nikolai then caught his arm and put him in a triangle choke, Nikolai held on tight like a boa slowly eating away Sun's oxygen. Sun then lifted him up and was about to slam him which made Nikolai to stop himself from falling with his arms and throw Sun to the other side of the ring with his legs. Nikolai and Sun got back up.

Nikolai: "You surprised me there Wukong, I'm impressed"

Sun: "So you admit defeat?"

Nikolai: "No"

Nikolai had a trick up his sleeve as well, he then started moving in a strange motion like if he was dancing.

Sun tilted his head in confusion but decided to move in, Nikolai maneuvered to Sun's side exposing his back letting Nikolai kick high behind his head with a spinning hook kick. Sun turned back and went at him again only for him to back up from an incoming hook kick, Sun then went for the legs only for Nikolai to recover quickly.

Most were confused, but some including Pyrrha Nikos were absolutely surprised by another martial art in Nikolai's arsenal and a rare one at that.

Oobleck: "What a turn of events! It seems like Nikolai Boyka also knows Capoeira!"

Tai: "We haven't had a Capoeira fighter as well in this sport in a long time, the most recent person we've seen a Capoeira practitioner is Conor McGregor and even he didn't have this kind of skill in the art"

(Yes Conor McGregor did learn some Capoeira during his MMA career)

Nikolai went on and off as he started to gain the advantage against Wukong, Nikolai blocked a jab and dodged a cross to strike his legs, mid section, jaw and kicked him back landing on the ground.

Nikolai then spun on his hand and maneuvered to the Trickster and once Sun got up Nikolai swung his foot to his jaw knocking him out, Herb Dean intervened and stopped the fight.

The crowd roared and cheered in victory as Nikolai pumped his fist high into the air, the fighters watching including Pyrrha were just astonished and surprised by Nikolai's skills.

Oobleck: "What a display! Not only was this the second win Boyka by TKO but with a style that's never really used in the UFC"

Ghira: "It seems like there will be a future champion in the UFC"

Nikolai then went to the awakening Sun. Nikolai took off his mouth piece wanting to speak with him.

Nikolai: "Are you alright?"

Sun: "Yeah man, that was awesome. One hell of a kick"

Nikolai: "You weren't bad yourself, good fight"

Nikolai helped Sun up and Sun raised Nikolai's hand in the air for good sportsmanship. Port then came from the sidelines.

Port: "Ladies and Gentlemen! Referee Herb Dean has put a stop to this contest at two minute and nineteen seconds of the second round! Declaring the winner by TKO! Nikolai! Boyyyyykkkkkaaaaaaaa!

Nikolai's staff came in congratulating him for his win, Pyrrha got his necklace and put it over his neck with a smile on her face.

Pyrrha: "That was amazing! I'm so proud of you!"

Nikolai: "Thanks for believing in me"

Oobleck once again came into the ring with mic in hand.

Oobleck: "I must say that was an astonishing performance by you Boyka, you surprised us all with your Capoeira ability. How do you feel after pulling something off like this tonight?"

Nikolai: "It feels absolutely incredible, I thank my father, the Beacon Division and God for this life I have now and I wanted to thank Miss Nikos for helping me in the second round. I can't wait for what is in store for the future"

Oobleck: "Thank you sir, I hope to see you again!"

-timeskip-

Pyrrha and Nikolai walked down the steps of the building, both looked up at the moon smiling. Nikolai then looked at Pyrrha

Nikolai: "I want to thank you for coming to watch me fight, you really helped me that second round"

Pyrrha: "Of course! I always would want to help a friend"

Nikolai smiled at that.

Nikolai: "Well, I have to leave now"

Pyrrha: "Why not come to my place? We can celebrate for your victory"

Nikolai pondered thinking what he should do.

(You know the drill: what should Nikolai do?

A. Decline and go back to his apartment

Or

B. Go with Pyrrha to celebrate the victory)
