                             Notes from the arena champ.

I fought an unarmed opponent and won.  Why does this not make me feel warm and fuzzy?  
Because fighting the unarmed is, relatively speaking, easy.  My arm and a blade is 
longer than his arm and his empty hand.  Bah.

                                      SPY REPORT

     Oh, hi.  Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte.  Thought I'd check out JADE MOUNTAIN 
to see what's new.  MVP award for ALPHA SAGITTAE?  SAGITTA's proud of her after 
beating HAI CHI and getting 10 points.  Talk about yer big time losers!  HAI CHI got 
smashed by ALPHA SAGITTAE, and lost 9 points!  Don't you think the Duelmaster is 
being unfair?  I think PLUM BLOSSOM should let ATTILA THE HUN be Duelmaster for a 
while, without fighting about it.  Is the Duelmaster really being a real snob to his 
teammates?  Don't ask me!   
     So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway?  It can't be for these 
really neat Spyreports can it?  CRITICALS was the most avoided team.  Is a 292-178-24 
record really that scary?  Is there some deep dark secret why JADED WARRIORS' been 
avoiding CRITICALS so much?  Or is it just that they're too scared?   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All JADE MOUNTAIN ever talks about is 
fighting!  Me, I'm more laid back.  Ooh!  The suspense is killing me!  JADED WARRIORS 
has like just one turn to Bloodfeud PLUM BLOSSOM of SAND DANCERS!  Will they do it??? 
Fight, fight, fight.  Is that all you guys can do?   
     Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain.  Soak it in cold water, and hand 
wash.  I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it quits.  Remember 
you guys, ease up sometimes!  Chill out!  Later, Debby Tonte
