                                    Dark Stoicism

The giant sword cut a furrow into the dirt. The night's light reflected from a few 
patches on its slowly rusting blade, which rose out through an upturned mouth. The 
ricasso head stretched past a crossguard of outstretched hands. The stylized fighter 
handle stood on a pommel skull. Two beefy hands grasped the figure's body. The sword 
was massive, like the warrior holding it, called Stoic. The sword was sleek and 
battle-worn, the warrior was bloated and uncertain. Towering though he was, even under 
plates of armor, fat rolls peeked out. One might wonder if the cook decided to go to 
war while the soldiers stayed in the kitchen.

Stoic looked back. His manager, memory, had been there just a moment ago, but the tree 
line had misted over, obscuring the entrance. He shrugged under the weight of the 
armor and looked through his helmet. The moonlight was bright on a clearing in the 
forest. All was deadly quiet, night mist roiling. His sollrets clunking through patchy 
grass occasionally broke the silence. It would be serene, but he could feel eyes 
everywhere and the promise of death. This was not a quiet forest and certainly not the 
boisterous and sandy arena he normally fought in. This was the Dark Arena, final 
resting spot of the failed gladiator. 

                                        * * *

"I can do better. I can! Please!" Stoic pleaded but memory was unmoved. "My decision 
is final. You don't have the desire to live a life of war. You have not grown into the 
gladiator name I gave you." Stoic was on his knees, begging, searching memory's 
unseeing eyes for hope. Memory's mouth tightened as he let out an almost imperceptible 
sigh. He pulled the hood of his tight black cloak over his head, turned, and drifted 
away. 

"Wyvern, please. Surely you can save me?" The trainer put a hand on his shoulder. With 
Stoic on his knees, he and the diminutive trainer were eye to eye. An immortal warrior 
with many years and many deaths behind her, she did not harbor his fear of the 
unknown. "Today's fight is over. Tomorrow we will train for the next." She locked eyes 
with him, passing on some of her inner resolve. "Come," she bade, as she led him from 
the infirmary back to their training hall.

                                        * * * 

A biting pain seared through an exposed flap of skin on his stomach. His mind had 
wandered away from the fight. His opponent, a Dark Arena champion, had entered 
silently. An elf stood before him, two feet shorter, but standing tall and towering 
above Stoic by confidence and bearing if not physical height. He might have been a 
glimmering angel, moonbeams dancing on exquisite silver mail. The elf brought his 
needle-thin sword up, hilt to face, blade skyward, in honorable warrior salute. He was 
sure he had won, and everyone knew it. He had time to honor the walking dead. 

                                        * * * 

Old Wyvern snaked a short spear under his guard, stopping just short of cutting. She 
always used her deadly spear, even in training, such was her skill and control. He had 
a greatsword, blunted for training, but massive. "I can barely move it. How can I 
train or fight if it's too heavy?" He felt a familiar and painful whack from the blunt 
end of Wyvern's spear. "Don't blame the sword. Desire victory and the sword will 
move." She struck again and he moved to the side, not moving the sword so much as 
standing it in the path of the attack. The parry was unorthodox but successful. 
"That'll do. Now strike!"

                                        * * * 

Stoic tried to recall his training as the fight continued. It wasn't working. He was 
bleeding profusely. He fell back on his reserves of strength and willpower. Slash, 
cut, smash... the elf was striking every weak spot in his armor, inflicting damage at 
will. Circle, stab, circle, slash, circle, cut. Stoic had been on the ground twice 
before struggling to his feet, stumbling and throwing up defenses with little success. 
He felt frustrated and clumsy but kept defending. Maybe the attacks were coming more 
slowly...

                                        * * * 

The arena crowd was restless, only moderately attentive to the morning's rookie 
warriors. The sand worked its way between his toes. He was just a boy. His parents did 
not love their son so much as an arena bounty. Stoic was scared and slow and the man 
in front of him wished him harm. And harm he did. Stoic cowered behind his shield, 
without even a weapon. "It's better this way. Rely on your hands. I want to see what 
you can do," memory had said. Stoic was bruised and bleeding. His opponent was more 
tired than injured, exhausted, really. Under a slowly diminishing rain of blows, Stoic 
heard calls from his teammates. "Now strike!" They were yelling frantically. He peered 
over his shield to see his opponent, sweating, breathing heavily, grip loosening on 
his sword. The attacking gladiator overextended above his head, ready to deliver 
another hacking, unopposed blow. Stoic roared upward to his full height, at the same 
time sending his shield through the surprised gladiator's face. Blood spattered, he 
flipped once and landed face down with a thud, sword flying end over end to land ten 
feet away. The crowd gasped for a moment then roared. His team roared. He looked to 
see memory, gazing forward blindly as always, but clearly smiling at him.

                                        * * * 

Back in the night mist, he was tired and hurt. After a long fight, minutes under this 
barrage. It must happen soon. Stoic knew he would die. But he wasn't dead yet. He saw 
the elf circling, waiting for another attack. He saw the moonlight and the trees. He 
felt the watching eyes. He felt memory and old Wyvern and his team. He knew they could 
see. He felt his opponents and all the gladiators in him for this moment. He felt his 
parents, who only saw in him a mouth to feed. He saw the high elf, still glistening, 
now with sweat -- still looking down on Stoic -- looking down not with haughty 
indignation as before, but the desperation of a man trying to chop down a stone tower 
and just realizing his error. Stoic saw not confidence but desperation. For the first 
time, resignation gave way to fury. "Strike Now," he heard in his mind.

The elf leapt forward, blade flashing. Stoic spun to his right, pulling the massive 
blade in his wake. The elf and his blade shot through the spot Stoic had been, then 
turned back in disbelief at the unexpected life in his easy quarry. "Strike Now," 
Stoic thought, as he continued his spin, continued his fury, pulling the blade full 
circle, letting out a roar that called all the judging eyes to witness.

The blade felt warm in his hand. He struggled to catch his breath. The arc of the 
blade had pulled him another half circle away from his opponent. He looked back at the 
elf, ready for the next attack. The elf's body stood, head lying on its shoulder, neck 
detached entirely where the blade had hewn through. The head's eyes were still open, 
judging differently now, askew. Immortal these Dark Arena champions were, and 
immortality makes death an odd thing. Stoic fell to his knees, sobbing. The fight was 
over. And it might never end.

teeth...  Gross!  PROJECT MAYHEM 12 had like a really albendranius week!  Those hunks 
got a 1-0-0 and wound up as 10th team!  I couldn't believe it.  Did ERRTWO really go 
up by 19?  If only those guys didn't have so may missing teeth...  Gross!  ERRFIVE 
had like a really albendranius week!  Those hunks got a 2-0-0 and wound up as 12th 
team!  I couldn't believe it.  Did THE DONALD really go up by 27?  If only those guys 
didn't have so may missing teeth...  Gross!  ANIME LEGENDS 10 had like a really 
albendranius week!  Those hunks got a 1-0-0 and wound up as 26th team!  See if I even 
talk to any of those losers in PINKEST OF FLOYD again!  Didja see where they got 
1-1-0?  Somebody musta won a lotta fights!  Wanna hear about a real loser?  Listen to 
this--ORL 2013T got 0-1-0 and dropped 25.  Didn't see much of them after the fights!  
Really, just how far can one team drop in one round?  THE MENTORS RETURN dropped 24, 
which I think's more than all the other teams combined!  Wanna hear about a real 
loser?  Listen to this--BUBBA'S CREW AA got 0-1-0 and dropped 27.  Didn't see much of 
them after the fights!  See if I even talk to any of those losers in ERROR J again!  
Didja see where they got 1-0-0?  Somebody musta won a lotta fights!  Wanna hear about 
a real loser?  Listen to this--CRAZY 88 14 got 0-1-0 and dropped 22.  Didn't see much 
of them after the fights!  Really, just how far can one team drop in one round?  SUHT 
YOURSELF dropped 46, which I think's more than all the other teams combined!  See if 
I even talk to any of those losers in THIRSTY THUGS 0504 again!  Didja see where they 
got 0-1-0?  Somebody musta won a lotta fights!  Wanna hear about a real loser?  
Listen to this--BODY BY OTTO got 1-3-0 and dropped 14.  Didn't see much of them after 
the fights!  MVP award for FORGET TORCHES?  DUNGEON DONT'S' proud of him after 
beating FAT OLD SUN and getting 33 points.  Talk about yer big time losers!  STEPHEN 
HAWKING got smashed by WATER, and lost 23 points!  What a putz!  CRAZY 54 fights so 
hard to be Duelmaster, then quits fighting and loses the title.  No one said he was a 
genius...  And I was just getting used to the ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!)  Oh 
well, welcome SAROKITH.  Aren't DUB O DUBS proud.  (Oh, my.) Is the Duelmaster really 
being a real snob to his teammates?  Don't ask me!   
     Look, you guys stick to fighting, all right?  CRAZY 88 15 was the most avoided 
team.  Is a 8-9-2 record really that scary?  I don't know what 08JL25A's been doing.  
They certainly haven't been accepting many fights from CRAZY 88 15, that's fer sher.  
Like, is BILLY JOE popular, or what?  He was challenged the most in all of 
BLACKSTONE!  He's got a 13-16-0, is that good?  I'm not so sure OTTOMAN EMPIRE knew 
all the facts when he challenged PRODIGY of HALFWAY CROOKS.  I saw OTTOMAN EMPIRE 
stumbling and dribbling at The Welcome Wench last week...  PRODIGY put to death 
OTTOMAN EMPIRE, and was I surprised (right!).  But its a good thing PRODIGY could 
stop laughing long enough to give OTTOMAN EMPIRE a good pounding.   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All BLACKSTONE ever talks about is fighting!  
Me, I'm more laid back.  I'm always kinda bummed when a decent warrior gets killed.  
OTTOMAN EMPIRE, of BODY BY OTTO had a 12-8-0 when he got bumped off by PRODIGY.  It 
was kind of sad, seeing old ZULU stumbling around the arena, before GIG finished it 
off.  Oh well!  I see OTTOMAN EMPIRE got killed by PRODIGY of HALFWAY CROOKS.  Now I 
want to see some serious Bloodfeud action out there!  It was so gross when GIG of 
UNGENTLE BENS killed ZULU.  They should start making warriors use safer weapons, or 
more shields, or something...  What if they had a fight and nobody showed up?  I'd be 
out of a job, that's what!!!   
     I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid.  Who would've guessed I'd be 
a famous Spyreporter?  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
