The Gladiator

As quickly as you can, you drop to the ground and roll to the side. You're clear of his attacks, but you're not out of danger yet.
You and Velkadin sword fight for a few more minutes, and then, seemingly out of pure luck, your sword flies ito the exact right spot and you give Velkadin a long, shallow cut on the jaw. Velkadin staggers backward in shock, bleeding from his wound.
I win." you say, sheathing your sword.
The crowd is cheering wildly at your first victory, but Velkadin is obviously angry.
"You've only scratched me!" he roars in fury. "I challenge you to complete this battle!"
You pause, knowing that Velkadin is challenging you to a fight until surrender. You also know that Velkadin will never surrender. But do you really want the crowd (not to mention that girl) to think you're a coward? You think over your choices....
