Into The Nothing {Mock Finale} [Tom]

You were almost there, the last day was here and you could feel the end drawing near. Breathing in the air you smelled the coming blood and smirked - today was the day it all came to a close and you would leave here no worse for wear because the arena was no different than your everyday life. If anything, it was just more exciting. The curl of your lips formed a delicate snarl on your features as you witness the arrival of your opponent. The skinny boy before you was nothing like the careers you had taken down and you laughed at the fact that he had made it this far. But he would go no farther, not if you had anything to say about it. Stroking the hilt of your knife with one hand, you eyed the handle of the glaive that was just visible in the corner of your vision. The larger weapon was strapped to your pack, while the knife rested in your hand. The two options weren't the only ones you had, but they were the two most promising ones. The hardest part of this whole fight would be deciding which weapon to use.

Having used your tried and true knife for so much of this Games you decided to play a bit more with the little boy and swapped it for the glaive. The larger weapon felt good in your hands and you swung it in a couple practice moves before coming closer to your target. Drawing a little jar out of your pack you smeared the black ooze inside of it on the blade of your weapon, lighting it to give you a devilish-looking flaming weapon. The little boy had no time to realize you were attacking until you were already moving, and you swung at him with your glaive, a horribly delighted grin on your face.

The runt had moved, but not fast enough. You may have only skimmed his leg but there was still some blood rising from the wound, not to mention the area was red from the fire that glittered on your weapon. It wasn't a satisfying hit, but this would give you more time to play with the little creature.
