Suddenly a flash blinded Amargaard and when he was able to see again, he no longer stood in the dark room, but in the arena itself, with Rakol few meters in front of him. Rakol's humiliating grin had changed to a serious face, ready for everything. Rakol changed to an offensive stance, awaiting Am's move. Am as well got ready to fight, by holding his pickaxe behind him, ready to throw it at his opponent.
Suddenly the tall black man charged towards Am with an amazing speed. Am threw the pickaxe as fast as he could and jumped to the right. Rakol parried the pickaxe with his sword, but as soon as it touched the sword, he stood still for a few seconds, unable to move any muscle in his body.
"What the fuck is this sorcery?!" he said angrily, still unable to move, and looked at Amargaard. Am stepped backwards from the warrior to a safe distance. He didn't answer the question, but readied another pickaxe for throwing, and now the warrior could move again. "If you use dirty magic tricks, I'll do too!" Rakol said, and shouted out loud a warcry, which made his tattoos burn with orange flames, all over his body.
He then charged towards Am again, this time dodging the thrown pickaxes, and swung his large blade at the green creature. The heat from Rakol's tattoos and his powerfully attacks, quickly got Am tired, but he managed to parry all the attacks with his pickaxe. "DIE!" the black man screamed, and jumped into the air with his blade above his head, swinging it towards Am's head. Am quickly pushed his pickaxe hardly into the stomach of Rakol, once again stopping him. The warrior stood still in the air "No.. NO!!". Am pulled up a huge green gun attached to his back and pointed it at Rakol's chest. He fired a huge white beam out of it and the black man fell to the ground with a hole through his chest. He was dead.
Amargaard was exhausted, he had been burned several places on his body, his muscles were sore and he had a headache. He felt like sitting down, but the cheering audience and knowing that he could fight in the final match, made him continue stand up.
