Clash of the titans. Round two., Who will win. Options

[Tellie]

Ok...the next two fighters are also brought into the arena, facing each other.

Thw two persons slowly moved towards eachother. One of them, a beautiful middle-aged imperial, bearing the name Serene, was trying to understand why they were all here, she had seen her friend Telina up on the stands, and only hoped she could find a way out...for both of them. Serene wore no armour, but instead a rather dashingly robe, but she did have a huge daedric Dai Katana slung upon her back.

The other person, a young Dunmer,with the name Kiln, stood in the ring, his face was as surprised as the one on Serenes face. In his hand he held a big shield, and at his wais there was a powerfull enchanted steel longsword, that he had inherited by his father.

The two figures sircled one eachother, and almost as on a signal they realised who eachother were...."Kiln", shouted Serene. "Serene", he shouted back...they ran towards eachother, hugging and laughing.

"Whats going on"?, Kiln asked.

"I dont know", she answered back, "But it-it looks like we have to fight eachother".

kiln backed away, unscheathing his sword, and throwing it at the ground before Serene's feet. "NO WAY", he yelled. "I'm not going to kill one of my friends.

"HEAR ME MORTAL......IF THOU DONT FIGHT THY OPONENT, I WILL KILL THE OTHERS...ALL OF THEM", a mighty voice shouted.

Kiln walked back to where Serene stood, and picked up his sword, with a mumbling that sounded like "forgive me".

Suddenly both of them struck out with their weapons, and the two mighty swords clashed, and sparks flew. They reckoiled both of them. Serene entered kilns mind, trying to understand what he was thinking...but Kiln was known of ratherr not thinking when he was fighting...but still Serene managed to notice that Kiln would rather not kill her.

She trew a fireball after him, which he smartly dodged, and came running towards her, sword raised high. He struck down with furios speed, but Serene had seen his thoughts, and was ready for it...she moved to the side, and brought the full weight of her mighty katana, against Kilns back, he managed to block the attack with his shield (barely), and it now showed a large dent.

Serene continued to fire off spells, but not always attacking spells, she had just fired off a fireball, when Kiln came back to her...regret in his eyes, he started to swing and slash with hisa sword, and using the shield as a second weapon, he managed to methodically push Serene back.

Once again, Serene entered his mind, telling with Kilns own voice, how he could not kill Serene, she was married, she had a little daughter...he could not kill her then, could he. Kiln tried to reason with himself, he was going to be a father as well, he had someone he wanted to marry...had it not been for that stupid journal he ha found, he would had been with his love right now...maby even have a decent job.

Again, swords clashed, and neither one fo the fighters getting the upper edge in the swordlock, both of them had a burning wish to die, rather than killing their frien...but still, they also wanted to live, as both of them had a family who would be in great grief if they were killed.


Ok...thats it, start voting please, I will hold this one open till friday afternoon, then I'll start writing the end of it.

Ok, since the posts clearly shows that Serene is the winner, I'll make her the winner...but somewhat unexpected.


The fighters broke the sword lock, and started circling eachother again. Tears was running down on the chin of both of them, they realised that they had to kill eachother.

Theymet again, blades swhirling and sparks flying, again and again they struck...high, low, sideways, spinns and other. they were good fighters who knew what to do when facing an opponent, but against a friend, no they did not have the heartfor it.

Again they broke off, Serene cast another fireball, that slammed into the shield of Kiln, throwing him a few yards across the arena.

Kiln threw away the remnants of his once trusty shield, and ran towards Serene again. They fought with the skill of a master, yet none of them tried to hurt the other.

Serene struck out with her mighty katana, believing that this would be just like their other attacks, easily to deflect. But something went wrong, and the katana knocked Kiln's blade aside, and made a huge red cut across his chest. Blood splurted out, and he fell to the ground panting heavily, while Serene stood there shocked....

"Nooooooooo", she thre heer blade away, and sat down beside him. She tried to heal him, but she just couldn't consentrate, the fact that she would have the death of her friend on her mind was weighing her down,making uncapable of performing the neccesary healing spell.

"Se-serene, dont worry, I'll-I'll do f-fine", he said amongst the small choughs. "t-Take care of, of your child, do do not feel guilty, just dont forget me"......then his eyes closed, his spirit left this world for something better, and the great Kiln the wanderer was gone.

Meanwhile Serene sat with his dead body in her arms, sobbing, before Hircine spoke again.

"you did well mortal, I shall look forward to your further fights here in the arena".

Then Serene was brought up by an unknown force to the benches again, there she had to wait and look as her friend Telina ws going to be led out to the pit...and maby die.....


Ok, so that's that, I hope you all found it satisfactory, and hope no one got offended...so now we have the fight between Telina and Oasis, and the fight between Kell, adn Sirin....I'm looking forward to those..and I wish you all others good luck with the fights...
