The Gladiator

You are determined to get the Champion belt.
"Hold on a second!" you shout ignoring the pain in your jaw. "This is only a scratch! Let's continue with the fight, Velkadin! Or are you too cowardly to fight a wounded man?" You wince, hoping that you didn't overdo it. Velkadin looks at you carefully and gives you that nasty smile of his.
"Don't be a sore loser, Dengian." he says. You feel some anger boil up inside of you.
"I'm not a sore loser!" you snap. "And I challenge you to complete this fight!"
Velkadin smiles again. He twirls his sword abit.
"I accept." he says slowly, and the crowd erupts into cheers once more. For the second time now, you and your brother circle each other in anticipation for a battle.
