"How did that work?" I ask myself as I walk up to him. I walk up to the man. I was surprised I had even gotten this far. This was my first ever arena battle and I was about to get second place and the second place prize. I smiled with confidence. I knew I couldn't beat the guy listening to music, but this was something. Once i reached him, I place my hand on his shoulder, shocking him again. I then went over to my shoe to find it slightly charred and a little electrified. "Hmm, still good enough to wear," I said as I put it back on. I then looked over to the final guy, waiting for him to react.
lying there I open my eyes "its not over!" I shout as I get up, determined to win I begin walking over to him breathing heavily I stick up my finger "I've been through hell you think that this is enough to stop me?" I shout at him maliciously and start laughing I begin to bring up the last of my energy for one last shot to take him out "it was a good run mate, I enjoyed it we should do it again some time!" I say in a friendly tone as I prepare let my final bullet fly
There is a city this darkness cant hide, there are the embers of a fire gone out but I can still feel the heat on my skin and this mess we're in you and, maybe you and I we can light up the night. socially awkward person coming through
I look arround in the arena and see only one more person in the arena. I stand up and unplug my ears. I stop the song and turn off the phone to save some of it's power. Then I put it in my pocket. "Well, just me and you left then" I stretch out a little before I walk away from the spot I was standing. "Well, you've made it this far. I'm impressed. I was expecting it to be one of the more expirenced guys. I roll my wrist a little, like if it was tired or something. I the other person stand up again. "I was hoping this would be between me and mister bzap..." I murmule as I lift my hands. Two wolves made out of pure shadows jumped over the person to bite him.

If you see me on this site, it's probably because I'm not particularly interested in it. Or I may be slightly intoxicated, though probably you won't see me here.
as the wolves latch onto me I stick up my hand and say "I leave you with a parting gift, bang!" I shout firing my last shot filled with what little power I had left at the electric guy in hopes of taking him with me as I collapse from exhaustion in the fetal position, my safety pin turns read and emits a noise and the guards come in and carry me away

"Oh! What the f**k!" I jump back and the woman beside me laughs. "It's pretty neat isn't it? I tried fighting him once when I was new here. Bad idea," She smiles and watches the wolves attack the remaining fighters. I regain myself and sit back down, watching to see what happens next. "What's your name?" I ask her, figuring I might as well know who I'm speaking with. "Rebecca, you?" "Ian," I reply, "Nice to meet you."

I make the wolves dissapear and send another one to take the shot. I didn't want the match to end yet. I was planning on enjoying it to the very end. The third wolf takes the shot and vanish into nothing. The pin on my chest was still perfectly green as well. I look at the guards as they bring the 'bang-boy' out of the arena. I smile a bit before I return to a more calm and emotionless look. "Now then, only us two left." I say with a smile to the person in front of me. The lightning-person.

If you see me on this site, it's probably because I'm not particularly interested in it. Or I may be slightly intoxicated, though probably you won't see me here.
I look around at the carnage around me, everyone was completely ignoring me. I wasn't sure why though, but everyone was completely going crazy, while I was just sitting here, with a literal front-row seat. I wasn't sure what to do, or how to get out, but I may as well do something. "Guys, why are you fighting?" They just continue fighting, still not listening to me. "Guys?" I was starting to get bored of this, since noone was listening, or even bothering to anyways.
I didn't have enough time to turn around before I saw that 'bang-boy' was gone, carried away after being attacked. I then turned back to the dark wolf man. "I guess you want to have a little fun with this, huh?" I asked with a smirk, "Well, I should at least thank you for practically giving me the second place prize. I'm sure 'bang-boy' isn't so happy, though. So, how would you like to do this? Take me out quick or slow? Its obvious that I'm no match for you, but I could at least try." I then looked down at my chest. I was pretty tired and my safety pin showed it. My pin was orange, getting close to red. I'd probably be out in several more hits.
As the last two competitors close in on each other, I start to think about what I will do when I am in a match. Ice...
I thank about trying to stay calm, then decide against it. The ice has only happened when I was falling off a skyscraper, so I reason that I would need a strong trigger. Anger? Maybe, but that emotion would be in short supply when I go into a fight willingly. I decide on pain. Just touching someone would bring about a strong electric shock, and from what I have seen of this one fight, I would have plenty of opportunities to get pain. I will need to stay mobile, and avoid exhaustion. I just decide to mainly hope for the best.
What about that "illegal" match coming up? Maybe. I might get killed, but hey, at some point I'm going to die anyway. I resign myself to watching the last two competitors.
I look at the arena, observing the two fighters left, and also some other guy off to the side with no disk... "Wish you actually had a chance, electro," I shout down, "but you'll make a nice show anyways!" I laugh to myself, looking forward to the upcoming fight, then I have a thought. I need to get some questions answered, might as well ask now. I look to a guy sitting off to the side of the spectators area and walk over to him. "So, what's going on with this prison? And the arenas?" ((Execute, that's you!))
"To be concise, it's a prison for people with powers, and the arena fights are to wheedle out the weak ones." I get up from leaning against the wall and face the man talking to me. Tall with pale skin and black hair, he looked quite similar to me, other than his dark eyes. "I got here after falling off a skyscraper. How'd you end up here?" Glancing at the arena, I see the older person advancing on the lightning-boy. "Two guesses who wins."
"I... Um... I can't really remember much... I was confronted by some people. I think I hurt them, and then these men came and stole me away. I didn't think they would hurt me... So I agreed to let them do tests on me. They hurt, and I... I... I killed all of the scientists, and someone tranquilized me, and now I'm here." I sit down next to him, and say- "I was hoping it would be electro-boy, the underdogs always win in the movies... Being realistic, of course, I don't see how he survived this long.
I laugh softly. "He isn't going to die. This is one of the "Legal" matches, so he'll be carried out when he's beaten. Maybe he'll in his next match? Who knows. I've only been here two days or so, but hey, it's easy to learn." I sit down next to the man. "I just hope I won't die when I end up in an unprotected match." I absentmindedly pull out my knife and begin twirling it, but quickly notice what I'm doing, and hide it away in a hurry.
I notice the knife, and laugh softly. "Some people in here are smarter than they look... But I guess you have to be in this place." I look down to the arena where the two fighters have been having a stare-down for some time, bantering to each other, maybe stalling, but what for? What's the point? I turn back to the guy next to me, "How did you get here anyways?"
"Got chased by a military team of fifty or so across the New York skyline, misjudged the distance between two skyscrapers, slipped and fell. Next thing I know is ice, then I ended up in an unlocked cell in the D-block. Nothing too special. I still think I could have made that jump if I wasn't so tired." I add with a wry smile. To me it didn't seem like a remarkable story, but hey, he told me his. "I'm Xavier, by the way."
"Evan, and did you say something about another match soon?" He absently tapped his feet, feeling anxious for no reason, and also a bit nauseous. "Never mind, I think I'll go back to my cell, it's been a long day for me..." He began to walk back to his cell, but he felt uneasy and he had gotten a headache. He just walked into the nearest cell, and went to sleep on the bed.
((I just needed an excuse for me to get off for the night. Lets say he's just having an anxiety attack :L))
"There's an illegal match coming up sometime soon. Bye." I watch Evan leave, thinking of the many different ways people can react to unusual situations. Standing back up, I turn toward the arena. The two remaining competitors had barely moved since I has last seen them. "Get on with it," I say under my breath, suddenly urgent about preparing for the match soon to come up. I can't remember when I decided to enter, but I had, and this was my only opportunity to study how a good warrior fights. I watch intently, studying each move, trying to analyze and dissect the strategies employed.
I didn't have enough time to turn around before I saw that 'bang-boy' was gone, carried away after being attacked. I then turned back to the dark wolf man. "I guess you want to have a little fun with this, huh?" I asked with a smirk, "Well, I should at least thank you for practically giving me the second place prize.

I look at the person with the electric ability. "I want this to last..." I say, still looking at him. "You're probably not much of s challenge as you say, but I can't just leave my new toy without playing with it. That would be mean against the people giving it to me" I say. I didn't know if the person understod the picture really, but what I ment was that the guards was the person giving the toy, you in other words, to me. I smile a bit. "Well, take the time you need. I'm not in any sort of haste."

"How do you control it?" I ask Rebecca, not wanting to take my eyes off the arena. "You mean your abilities? It's different for everyone I guess. I can make it work when I'm angry and even then the most I can change are my arms," She says, looking down at her hands, "I've only been here for a week or so, I've kinda learned how to use it but I know I can get better. It just requires practice."
I nod in agreement and continue to watch the fight. "You could get really good at these fights. It's hard to win against someone who can shift the floor you stand on," She jokes, waiting for one of the fighters to make a move. "If I can learn what I'm doing. That pillar there, 100% accidental. It's why I panicked once I realized I was 6 meters in the air," I laugh and she smiles a little. "You did look pretty scared," she smirked. When are they going to fight? Soon. Just be patient.
I waited, seeing he was going to wait for me to take the first move. It was clear that he'd be able to block or counter attack whatever I threw at him from my previous encounter from him. I thought, wondering how I'd be able to get him to attack first. After several moments, I grew a grin on my face. I held my hand against my safety pin, wondering what would happen if I...
"Why don't you attack first?" I ask the shadow man, "I could easily short this thing out so it will go off. Then you'll be left with no fight," I kept my hand on the safety pin, knowing I was bluffing. However, I kept my cocky grin, trying to show I was serious. I knew I didn't have enough energy to short this thing out, and I was kind of afraid to see what would happen if I did. Besides, I'd rather have this go by quick than have him use me as a punching bag.
I look arround in the arena and see only one more person in the arena. I stand up and unplug my ears. I stop the song and turn off the phone to save some of it's power. Then I put it in my pocket.

Oh no, it's a link to an awesome flash game!
