It was always a time of nervousness, and impatient patience to wait for the crowd to finally get roused up. Yuilix sat in the back of the dark corner with an odd flickering off a candles offset light. It did not bother him, since he had gone through training by the higher-ups to be taught to adapt to the light. The small room beneath the great colosseum far from the Great Drow city, Yuilix prepared for the paid fight. To impress the crowd, and to unyieldingingly cut up whomever his opponent was. It was life or death, and Yuilix had only been a gladiator for not so long in his short Elven life time. Yuilix prepared his light, but silent leather armor, and started to set it over himself piece by piece. The quiet Drow settled finally, after a messenger came in that a special reward would be up for grabs, if he won this "tournament". Yuilix and his delicate tongue spoke in Drow. " These cruel women always do this to rouse themselves, no matter I will try my best. " He nodded, and dismissed the messenger. His underdark weapons, a longsword, and shortsword rested upon the stool. The other opponents mediocre, however slaves captured mainly Elves, and humans to "attempt" a fair fight against Yuilix. Yuilix readied while the crowd started to get loud. The opening stage was unsettling, nerve-racking, yet Yuilix had nerves of steel. Yuilix tied up his swords to his hips, and waited for the opponents entry. The faint rumbling of the steps began, as the other opponents enter the arena, while Yuilix a reigning champion. It did not matter to please the Priestess, and powerful people above him. Yuilix prayed to the Spider Queen, to give him the strength to upset these fighters, leaving them cold, and dead for the driders. The crowd cheered for Yuilix chanting his name, as magical illuminating glyphs warded around the colosseum. The other competitors were already entered, as Yuilix readied himself to enter from the opening gates, jogging into the Arena.
Chapter 2 - The Big Fight
Yuilix entered, and the crowd yelled pleaded to Yuilix to dedicate the match to them, but he only dedicated it to the Priestess of Lolth, for they will award him afterwards, maybe. Some fighters stood around with helmets, swords, lances, shields, but Yuilix did not need any of that besides his two swords, and his light armor, since he was quick and knowledgable of these walls, he would know its tricks. The crowd slowly quieted down, as the sound of war would proceed. The fighters looking across the colosseum at each other with merciless emotions, as a few charged others. Yuilix would be the first to get rush by two opponents. Yuilix unsheathed his swords hastenedly, while the opponents were two Elves from the surface. Each carrying a sword, one withdrawn an attack, while the other proceeded possibly underestimating this Drow. With a lunge the Elf provoked the first attack, as Yuilix quickly sidestepped eluding the attack, and rushing forth the withdrawn opponent. Screaming with a blood frenzy roar, his left arm swung with an attack of his own, as the Elf blocked with the shield, and attacked with his shortsword. Yuilix quickly blocked the attack with the right underneath his left, in a tie up, their strength was pretty much even. Until the Elf behind him charged again, and his footsteps loud to his sensitive ears, as he gracefully manuevered to the right, while the Elf was left handed, the sword lunged right by Yuilixs hips, and almost cleaving into his other opponent.
Ducking underneath, and throwing their swords up into the air, which they still clung onto, Yuilix taking the opportunity to jump, and whirl with his sword cutting the Elfs throat, as the other swung to connect with Yuilix, but it was late, and yuilix landed with a glancing blow to the Elfs feet tripping him to the dirt ground. Yuilix with his two swords lunging with a strong attack, yet the Elf holding up his shield protected him barely from the two attacks, and pushing Yuilix away from him to allow himself to stand up. Yuilix rolling away on his back, and standing up staring at the Elf. Speaking in Elven, " You shall die today Young one. " Yuilixs left hand lunged again, which was blocked, and his right sword blocked from the shield, as Yuilix rolled off the shield, and to the Elf fighters flankside. Yuilix connecting with an elbow, and drawing blood, the Elf coming up with an overhand attack. Yuilix blocked on the inner side with his forearm, and drove the right hand in for the kill right into the young ones lungs. Yuilix smiling, " I told you. " Before he pulled the sword, and quickly danced away from the slowly dying Elf. The precision causing an aching, and slow death, while a few other opponents down, and killed outright. Of course there was always traps which were alarmed by their position in the Arena, as doors would open, and today 3 poisonous scorpions were in the Arena now. One killing a few people, and the other dying as it killed the second last remaining opponent. Yuilix raised his arms, as the blood dripped form the sword, and the crowd roared up from their seats. The quick moving scorpion approaching yuilix fast, as he began to run towards a ppillar in the center of the colosseum. The scorpions tail jerking forward trying to attack, yet Yuilix with his graceful, and gifted talents, he jumped against the wall, and with his own momentum, he backflipped above the scorpion, and landed on top, as the tails stinger grazed his leather armor. Yuilixs two sword impaling the scorpion as he landed, and with a screaming, the critical wounded scorpion bucked around disabled. Yuilixs opponents fell, as he was once again victorious with the aid of outside interference.
Chapter 3 - The Reward
Yuilix ran around, yelling, and screaming in victory. The crowd clapping to once again another clean victory, as he was dark blessed by the Priestess. Green goo, covered his face, and mixed blood colors rambled his swords. His long pale irongrey hair wet with bloodspots, he smiled, and bowed before the Priestess whom were impressed. Yuilix proceeded to the gate, as it opened, and disappeared from the crowd, as he went to his room once again. Afterward he cleaned up, and properly attired himself, before there was a knock at his door while the one of the over-lord Priestess entered the room. He bowed before her, and kept silent, as her might may as not be as nice as her emotions. She spoke in their native tongue, " Most impressive Yuilix, once again you out done everyone, you always come up with a new style to impress the crowd. I am here to offer you a reward Yuilix, as you somewhat deserve this. " Yuilix looked to the nicely attired Priestess, and took a small blue gemstone from her open palm. He spoke softly, " Most appreciated my lady. I shall keep it close, and not let the our Dark Queen down. " She smiled slightly, as she leaned forward and kissed his forward, blessing him. She spoke, " It's ok Yuilix, this streak of yours will not be forgotten, and perhaps you may one day face a very challenging opponent. " A cruel look came over her face, since it may be the Priestesses champion, or possibly herself. Yuilix quiet, and kept kneeled before the Priestess. " I am proud to serve your majesty. " She left the room with her blackguards, and walked away. Yuilix felt a small eerie glow from the blue gemstone, as he wondered what it might do, but some of his Sorcerer friends may find out. Yuilix waited around the room, as guard knocked, and entered the door behind him a beautiful Drow lass. The guard smiling, and slamming the door shut. The Drow lass watched, as she was not a dominate one, but one of the spectators. " You know why I am here Yuilix. Everyone has talked about you and your 5 wins. " She brushed his shoulder with her hand, and Yuilix shy, and quiet. He spoke, " I've been blessed, or I just have a nack for out doing everyone. " She kneeled over him, and placing herself one his lap, whispering. " You shall out do yourself this evening. " Yuilix not letting the chance pass by, since females the dominant in the society, he let her continue on. It was going to be a long night ahead.
