The sun shines brightly over the great and beautiful city of Avalon. The children frolick in the park as the adults watch them. Lovers sit on the high cliff that overlooks the large and mystical sea. The town sqaure is filled with people walking about and conversating. The shops are quiet as the janitors clean them and all the owners are off somewhere more than likely having a great time. In the town colliseum people are cheering and yelling because an event that would change the tides of the city was about to take place. Rejiro, son of legendary hero Nomen and the priestess Naomi, had challenged the city's champion, Gorgoth, who was rumored to have never lost a fight. The two fighters stood in the center of the arena. An announcer walked out and announced,"Today, Rejiro will fight the city's champion Gorgoth. Fighters choose your weapon." Two chained prisoners pushed out a tall wall that had weapons attatched to it. Gorgoth walked over and picked the shining battleaxe. Rejiro, showing no signs of fear, walked over and picked the twin swords. "Now, begin!" said the announcer running away. Then immediately Gorgoth rushed at Rejiro and swung down his axe but Rejiro rolled out of the way. Then Rejiro jumped at Gorgoth but he blocked the attacked and thrust Rejiro to the ground. Gorgoth jumped up and was about to come down on Rejiro but he rolled backwards and when Gorgoth landed he rushed him and jabbed him in the arm. Gorgoth dropped the axe but with his good hand grabbed Rejiro's arm and slammed him into the wall repeatedly and then threw him on the ground. "Damn, he's too strong."whispered Rejiro, now bloody and with a broken arm and what felt like all his ribs, slowly standing up. "Give up child, do you really think you can beat me. You teenagers nowadays think you can do anything with all your magical ablities and extreme robot skills and your beautiful sidekicks slash lovers. Listen to me kid, one day those adults will stop going easy on you beacause of his deep desires and will kick your a**, like right now for instance, you would think that you were supposed to win, but that ain't happenin'." Then Rejiro fell back on the ground dropping his swords. Gorgoth picked up his axe and walked over to finish the match, but just before he delivered the final blow they were enshrouded in smoke and once it cleared Rejiro was gone. Gorgoth dropped the axe and said,"Typical teenager running from defeat I bet it was his girlfriend. ........... Damn, how I envy the young." the announcer then ran back out into the arena and said,"And the winner is Gorgoth by default."
On the outskirts of town, in a small shack, Rejiro awoke on a pallet with his wounds properly taken care of. "So you're awake." saida familiar voice from behind him. "Thank you for saving me, Myumi." "I told you not to fight that killing machine. Your lucky I was there to save you." "I thought I could beat him. I mean all that training and my father being a hero and all." "You're not your dad so stop trying to pull off amazing feats that you know you can't accomplish." "Come sit next to me I feel a little cold." Myumi gave him a little smile a nd went over and sat down. "I know what you're trying to do Rejiro and it is not going to work." "Why whatever do you mean?" He wrapped his arms around her, brought her down to the floor, and pulled the cover over them. "Stop it Rejiro." said Myumi laughing. Then suddenly, their little house began to shake. "What was that?" asked Myumi throwing the cover off of them. To be continued ..................
