Zzzzzzzzzzz, huh, what, oh yeah, the make the commentator fall asleep trick. Very clever, Lord Drogue. Anyway back to the "excitment." Skanky, your thoughts so far.

"Zzzzzzzzzzzz. Snort, snort! Zzzzzzzzzzz."

Skanky!

"Oh, yeha that's it, yeah just like that baby!"

Skanky!!!!

"Huh, oh the fight and everything. Let's see, who's fighting again. Oh yeah, my money is on Drogue, that is it."

Brilliant! The contestants almost start to circle each other, but almost immediately Drogue charges at the Doctor with his sword held high and drives it hard towards the Doctor's head. The Doctor get the "telegraph" long before it arrives though and easily blocks the blow with his huge shield. He does not counter-attack.

Both contestants step back and look each other over, perhaps a little befuddled by the long rest between this and the last encounter. Both feint attacks and assume defense postures in response to the feints.

Both contestants seem a little emabarassed that they fell for each other's feints and the charge right at each other with destruction in mind. The Doctor flinches his shield out like he did many times against previous opponents, and Drogue reacted by dodging to the right. However, it was only a ploy by the Doctor as he launched a vicious right hook that caught Drogue right on the chin.

It was not that telling of a punch, however, since Drogue managed to bring his sword down on the Doctor's wrist like a nun chastising a bad little schoolboy, opening up a nasty gash on the back of the Doctor's hand. The contestants back off to check their injuries.

(The Doctor has 77 points remaining, and Lord Drogue has 86 points remaining).

Welcome Galdiator fans, as it is time to get the bloodbath started. Skanky, what do you make of the action so far?

"Is there a fight going on somewhere around here? If the Doctor would step out from behind that shield every once in a while, and Drogue would actually hit him hard, then we would actually have a fight on our hands, wouldn't we?"

The contestants approach each other and Drogue rushes at the Doctor with his shield slung low and high sword high above his head. He slices downward with his sword, and just as the Doctor looks to block the blow, he turns the butt of his shield (in that old familiar fashion) towards the midsection of Drogue, and the combatants land their blows at the same instant.

Drogue's sword just manages to nick the Doctor's ear on its way to opening a nice gash on the upper shoulder of the Doctor. At the same instant, the force of the blow into Drogues midsection drops him to one knee, with the sound of the blow indicating more than one broken rib.

With a howl of pain, Drogue jumps to his feet and tries to drive another blow towards the Doctor. The blow is easily blocked by the Doctor who does not counter.

Both contestants step back and offer no other form of attack.

(The Doctor has 63 points remaining, and Lord Drogue has 63 points remaining).

(You may now submit your next orders, [in this eon, please] ).
(Sorry for the brief story, I'm on the crappy keyboard at home).

Was a nice comback though. Banking on you not going that low attack and high power Considering we have a -11 to our powers, this is a hard hitting match

Welcome again fight fans, as it is starting to get down to the nitty-gritty. The contestant look pretty even at this point, but I'm sure that this thing is going to open up at any moment.

"I'm pretty sure that the guy who scores the most devastating hits on the other one will be the one that will win. I still have hope for Lord Drogue (muffled) and my money."

The contestants approach each other with a nasty look in their eyes. Drogue looks a little mesmorized as the Doctor starts spinning his shield around his body very quickly passing it from hand to hand. We have yet to see this from the Doctor, and a hush falls over the crowd as the shield spins faster and faster.

Almost at once the Doctor steps forward and drives the edge of his shield across the midsection of Lord Drogue, opening up and extremely large gash across his stomach. Drogue still does not move.

The Doctor continues to spin the shield from hand to hand again building up speed since being slowed by the flesh of Drogue. This time Drogue looks ready for him as he prepares to shield his, now tender, midsection. The Doctor fools him again and instead moves his spinning shield high into Drogue's face. The edge of the shield strikes Drogue's cheek and continues on through his nose, slicing and dicing along the way, leaving only part of Drogue's nose behind.

Finally, Drogue seems to wake up from his daze, perhaps enraged by the blood dripping into his open and sreaming mouth. While the Doctor was trying to pull his shield out of the spin for defensive purposes, Drogue dropped to one knee and drove his sword down hard into the Doctor's left leg just above the knee, unhinging a meaty chunk about the size of clenched fist.

The Doctor backed away and Drogue charged at him again. Drogue, managed a a right feint into a backside flip that totally dazzled the Doctor as well as the crowd. It was the best combat move that we have seen here to date, but the blow that was struck on the doctor's cheek did not have a lot of power behind it.

The Doctor continued to back away as both contestants surveyed the damage.

(The Doctor has 36 points remaining, and Lord Drogue has 27 points remaining).

(You may now submit your next orders.)
