up to reveal an ogre with a wooden club attacking the walls, trying to get out. The ogre looked at me and charged at me club held high. The ogre brought the club down at me but I dodged it and cut off the ogre’s hand off. The ogre screamed out then grabbed my head with his other hand and smashed my head into the sand. Both my mouth and my nose was under the sand, I couldn’t breathe or get out of the ogres grip.
I heard a voice within me yelling “GET UP!” then I noticed it was my inner rage.
My body was filled with adrenaline, my body became strong, stronger than ever, and I grabbed the ogre’s wrist and threw him aside. I pulled my head out the sand and gasped for breath. I heard a yelling and looked towards the noise and noticed that the ogre was smacking his chest with his one hand. I just noticed that I dropped my sword, I found it next to me and picked it back up.
The ogre charged at me with his club, I charged back at him. I stabbed the ogre in the stomach, he screamed out and punched me right in the face. I let go of my sword and flew back, I tumbled on the floor, stopped and screamed out.
The rage started pumping even faster through my body, the adrenaline started getting stronger and then my nails started to grow out faster.
I charged at the ogre, feeling faster than ever, stronger than ever, I jumped and somersaulted onto the ogre’s back. I flexed my fingers and dug them deep into the ogres shoulders, it tried to pull me off but I held onto the bones. The ogre finally noticed that the harder he pulled, the more his bones got hurt, so he stopped pulling and started running towards one of the walls. When he was not far from the wall, I jumped off and he ran into the wall. He made a huge crack in the wall and just laid there.
I walked up to the ogre and spit on him, the ogre opened his eyes as soon as I did that and grabbed my ankles. He threw me at the wall and I fell to the ground. I could smell a weird smell, and could hear a weird beating. Then I looked at the ogre and saw the fear on his face, the smell was his fear, and the beating was his heart.
I jumped onto the ogre’s chest and dug my hand into his stomach and his heart. I squeezed his stomach with one hand and pulled the heart out with the other. When I pulled out the heart, blood sprayed everywhere like a fountain, and the heart was still pumping when I pulled it out. I ate the heart in front of the ogre, the ogre closed his eyes and died when I bit into the heart.
The crowd cheered my name, and then I jumped off the ogre and smiled at everyone.
The king exclaimed “The Decapitator, you’re so close to the champion, let’s not start back to the beginning, shall we?”
I went back to the resting area, Angel saw me, saw my face and yelped, then smiled at me.
“What?” I asked.
“You got your powers back, good, we’re going to need to use it against the giant.” Angel said.
“What powers, what are you talking about?” I asked.
“Man that amnesia really took a lot of memories away. The powers you have are because you’re a fiend, a werewolf.” Angel said.
“Oh.” I said.
I saw the cup of water that was waiting for me and I charged after it and started drinking it.
Billy came up from behind and patted me on the back while I was drinking the water and said “I see that you got your powers back, good it’ll be very useful.”
I finished the water and threw the mug aside.
I turned around, patted Billy on his back and said “You healed up nicely, good to have you back Billy.”
A guard came up from behind and said “The king wants to give you a special offer, you can fight the next three round all in one.”
“That’s suicide, he would die if he fought them all at once, why would he offer that?” Angel asked.
The guard said “The two of you can fight with him also, and if you win and live, you can follow him to fight the giant and become the champions together.”
Billy said “That’s a lot better, if you want to do it, I’m all in.”
Angel asked “Same here, what do you want to do?”
Then I noticed that all eyes were on me so I quickly answered “Ok then.”
The guard left and said “Go ahead and rest, there’s going to be a big fight tomorrow for the three of you.”
The three of us went to sleep to rest up for the fight tomorrow.
I was woken up by a guard and he said “Someone sent in armor for you and your friend to use in the fight today.”
I got up and woke up the rest of my friends and told them the news about the armor that came. We all headed towards the sets of armor that was all laid out, each of us started picking up pieces of armor and put it on. After we all put on our armor, we started testing out the restrictions the armor gave, and surprisingly, it didn’t restrict our movements at all.
The guard saw that we were all in our armor and said “Hurry and get out there, the crowd is going crazy for you guys.”
We all grabbed our weapons and ran out there to see one giant scorpion that could rip us in half with his pinchers. There was also a giant spider with hairs that looks like spikes. The last thing was a giant three headed ogre. As soon as they saw us, they charged at us, Angel started shooting arrows at them all while Billy was ready to take the ogre on.
I stood there and threw my sword at the scorpion. I started running towards the scorpion, the scorpion blocked the sword with one of his pinchers, then I jumped onto the scorpion’s back but then it threw it’s stinger at me. But then I caught it with my hands, but it was getting closer and closer, the poison was dripping from the tip. An arrow hit the scorpion in the eye and it made the scorpion cry out. The scorpion sent his stinger to the floor many times in pain.
The adrenaline rushed through me, and then I started wailing and clawing at the scorpion’s back. The spider would’ve attacked me long ago but Angel was keeping it away, same thing with the ogre and Billy.
I pulled off the scorpion’s scales and tossed them aside like nothing. I sensed the stinger coming towards me so I jumped out of the way, the scorpion stung itself and sent the poison into itself. The scorpion pulled the stinger out and then it started spazzing out doing random stuff because of the poison.
I wasn’t done with the scorpion yet, I screamed out and the crowd cheered louder. The adrenaline got stronger and pumped faster through all of my veins.
I ran up to the scorpion and grabbed one of its pinchers, and yanked as hard as I could and it flew out, now I had the pincher. Blue blood flew out of where the scorpion’s pincher used to be. I then used the pincher to cut the other puncher off, then I stabbed the scorpion in the face and dug as deep as my muscles would allow.
The scorpion stopped squirming and died, I turned around to see that Billy was on the floor fending off the ogre and blocking his strikes. I saw that Angel was in the spider’s grip and then the spider bit her. The color came out of her body and her color turned a light purple. The spider started wrapping her up in its web.
The site of that made the beast take control of my body again. My nails grew out, my muscles started getting stronger, my hair started growing out and my body turned warm. My insides started warming up, my blood turned warm, my stomach burned, let there was a fire in it.
I screamed and howled to the sky and jumped up high into the air. I dived towards the spider and flew into its body and ripped it apart from the inside, and then I ripped it in half. I ripped up all of it’s legs and threw them aside. I jumped onto its head and started attacking it, purple goo flew everywhere, I winded up a punch and sent it into the head and pulled out bits of brains.
Once I was done with the spider, it didn’t even look like a spider anymore. That did not satisfy my rage, I then looked at the ogre who was still trying to get Billy. I screamed out and it looked at me in rage, that ogre’s rage turned from rage to fear.
I ran at it then I grabbed the two outer heads and pulled them apart, it’s body split into two and the blood rained out and I loved it. The site of my enemies filled me with joy then I howled out with joy, but then
I caught a site of Angel’s body and the rage all came back, I howled loudly through the arena.
The crowd stopped cheering and carefully watch to see what I would do, Billy put his hand on my shoulder and said “It’s ok big guy.”
I didn’t think about what I was doing, but the touch on the shoulder filled me with endless rage. I quickly turned on Billy, easily ripped through his armor and smashed his slashed all over his chest and then I bit into his neck, and finally noticed what I was doing.
I took a few steps away from Billy’s dead body and transformed back to my normal self, I kneeled down next to him and cried out loudly. Not only was Billy dead, Angel died also, so I just laid there crying.
The king announced “Take these dead bodies away, Decapitator, you’re doing very well one more fight and you’ll become the champion.”
Guards came out and took away my friend’s bodies, two more guards came and carried me to my bed. I cried myself to sleep thinking about what I’ve done, and what I’ve lost.
I was woken up by the guard from before and he said “You have my deepest condolences, but the champion is waiting for you in the arena, I’m sorry but you have to fight him.”
I slowly got up and glumly walked out to the arena and was faced with the giant from before.
I then looked at him and then the rage flowed, I ran at him and punched him in the face, squatted down, and upper cut him in the chin, he flew up into the air a little bit. The
