There Can Only Be One, The Real Victor is?

"Ladies and gentlemen, the time has finally come. We welcome our two finalists from this very grueling tournament. On one side we have the tyrant of Jund Karrthus, and the other is... the ultimate face of evil..Nicol Bolas. So, without further due welcome these two powerful and legendary dragons!"

Some have shown up for this match but most have decided to watch from other means. Preferably far away from the arena since the powerful Nicol Bolas is going to be present.

A thunderous roar echos outside, the winds pick up causing small wind storms to be formed. The large figure swoops in from the skys crashing down onto the ground with earthquake like force. Karrthus the Tyrant of Jund is here. Standing tall a proud he waits for the powerful Nicol Bolas.

Then it happens. A paralyzing fear overcomes anyone that is in the arena from the roar of Bolas. In an instant he his in the arena ready to do battle against Karrthus. Standing with a command of power and respectable fear he grins at Karrthus. His brilliant golden scales shinning bright in the sunlight. If no one know who he was, you would almost think he was the dragon in shinning armor.
Nicol Bolas
" Yes well that was an entrance for the both of them. Legends...CLASH!"

Karrthus starts things off with his Inkmoth Nexus and following that up with his Elixir of Immortality. Both very strong moves by the tyrant. He knows he can hold nothing back facing such a powerful legend himself. Bolas himself just stands calmly building up his mana supply until he finally sends out his first spell Vessel of Endless Rest.

Karrthus decides to send in his Inkmoth for an attack attempting to get the ball rolling as it were. But Bolas has an answer to that. His Viral Drake is out to defend his master now.

" If this is your best efforts Karrthus, I'm afraid you won't last long.. At all."

A growl of disgust comes from Karrthus. Birds of Paradise is sent forth and in the blink of an eye he also sends three dragons straight to the graveyard with the help of Buried Alive. What could he have up is wings ready to unleash is anyone's guess. A small grin forms on his face as he stares at Bolas.
Birds of Paradise
" Don't worry Bolas, that is far from my best efforts to bring you to your knees."

Again Bolas doesn't make a very energetic move only continuing his mana building and then casting Sea-Gate Oracle.

Karrthus on the other hand lets the spells fly. He unleashes the powers of Demonic Tutor and finds a powerful spell, Exhume. Exhume brings back Bladewing the Risen and with him comes Utvara Hellkite. Two very strong and dangerous dragons on their own, but together a death dealing combo.

"W Wow folks. I have no idea on how Bolas intends to win this one. Karrthus actually seems to be getting the best of him! "

Bolas uses the power of Diabolic Tutor to search for some spell to aid him now. But it might be too late already. Karrthus sends in his attackers. Bladewing's ability is used to pump his two dragons some making them even more of a threat. With the attack orders sent in, Utvara's ability triggers as well making two smaller dragons appear ready to attack.

"It would seem I have the upper hand o evil one. I will bring you down Bolas and I will be forever known as the most powerful dragon to ever live!" Karrthus boasts gradually starting to stand taller. He feels he has this as a win already.

Bolas just glares with a sinister smile at Karrthus. He leaves mana open to mount a surprise defense against Karrthus or to bluff him not to attack again. Bolas is the master of mind games after all so who is to say what reason he has for leaving mana open.

Karrthus is aware of this but decides to just go for it. Sending in his forces for another attack. Uvtara's ability triggers again making more smaller dragons. Bladewing's ability is used again as well giving each dragon a small power boost. A flash of blue magic is sent out. Bolas played him for a fool. Aetherise has just sent all of his attacks back and off the battlefield. Doubling Cube is sent out to mount a greater mana swing for Karrthus.

Mana remains open for Bolas again baiting the tyrant into another foolish move. Karrthus sees this and decided it is for the best to force him into using his counter magic. Bladewing comes back out but it abruptly stopped by Dissipate. With nothing better to do, Karrthus sends in his four dragons to attack Bolas. Not doing more than building his mana, Bolas just realizes the end could be here. Tidings is cast by the ultimate evil but it is a fail. He has no answer for what is about to happen.
Dissipate
" Ladies and gentlemen it...it seems Karrthus is but one attack from winning it all! He will be the one to defeat the ultimate evil Nicol Bolas!"

An unleashed attack from Karrthus is sent forth. He has to make his move count. He is ready incase this attack should fail to continue his winning. The four dragons do their work taking down what was the ultimate evil in the Multiverse. Karrthus has won the tournament and will forever be known as the one to defeat Nicol Bolas. Or will he?

The dust settles and there he stands. Bolas. Taller and with no sign of being injured. A soul crippling laugh echos through the air. Even Karrthus has to wonder what is going on.

" You foolish beings, did you really think he of all beings would be the one to take me down. I am power. I am fear. I am death to all that stand in my way. I have lost another golem but now I will take what I want! "
Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker
In a flash of magic Karrthus has his mind wiped clean and is now under the command of Nicol Bolas. Together they both begin to destroy the arena and are quickly met with another warp. Jace has now appeared and with him is none other than Ajani.
Ajani VengeantJace, the Mind Sculptor
Bolas! You will finally answer for your crimes! I will have my revenge on you once and for all!" an angry Ajani charges in to attack the dragon. Bolas sends Karrthus in but is quickly met with a powerful blue spell from Jace. Ajani jumps over the falling dragon and heads straight for Bolas. At the last second a flash of magic once again blinds everyone and the two dragons are gone.

" Damn it, he has gone again!" Ajani slams his mighty axe into the ground. A human hand is placed on his shoulder.

Jace, the Living Guildpact
" Do not worry Ajani, we will find him again. He can not keep running forever." Jace opens the warp and the two are gone just as fast as the appeared. What will happen now? Nicol Bolas may have lost the tournament but it seems we were all playing his little game. He now has a very powerful ally by his side. Things may yet to get dark for the multiverse.

" L..Ladies and gentlemen both in attendance and watching around the universe. It seems that even though Karrthus was the victor, Bolas still ended up as the finale winner. Be on guard as he is becoming stronger and even more dangerous...."
