Fast Times in Gladiator Pit
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 24334
|
TIME: who knows? PLACE: an infirmary within the Arena (that section
of the Caves which holds the Gladiator Pit and surrounding amenities), all
part of the Dominion - the Dragon's Demesyne!
While Fred and Astra regain consciousness and come to the realization that they are swathed from head to toe in bandages and unable to figure out what sort of shape they are in, except that they still seem to have a full complement of limbs, Velus is still in the Pit - the Gladiator's Pit to be precise and not to be confused with the Unending Pit, its companion hole the Bottomless Pit, nor the little traversed Black Pit, Pit of Moonlit Despair, and the Pit & the Pendulum... yes indeed, the Dragon did like it's pits!
Fred: Wh-where am I?" Astra: "T' kweschon isssss, ow du we git out?!" Fred: "Damn, what's wrong with you and... who are you?" Astra: "M' name isssss Assssta, my teeeeet were knocked out by ssssome &% $@!!!" Fred: "Uh, were you, by any chance... the uh, woman, fighting in the gladiator's pit?" Astra: "Yeah." Fred: ~~uh-oh~~ "Whores and Manbats!!!!!!" screamed out the T.M. "Now on to Round Thirteen!!!" The crowd screamed and jeered and stomped and clapped. Although Round Two had been anticlimatic with the loss of both contestants and without death - to the great consternation of everyone involved - the following rounds did included just as much blood, the death of a witch, a centaur, some boy-demon called Jay, as well as great bodily harm to a vampire, three nomads, an octafyre squid, and a harpy. The winners were being cooled down and matched up while newbies were having the time of their life (or death as the case proved). For Round Thirteen the two fighters chosen are Sigis the WolfMan (three wins this day) and Howard the Duck (five wins this day!).
