Jamski-San and Chaunk, unable to consider another attack at once, both pull back and watch their opponent warily and defensively.
Eventually, realising that they will only become weaker with time, they both lurch towards one another, Chaunk lowering his head to bring its spike into play, and Jamski tossing aside his battered and broken shield to grasp his katana in both of his exhausted hands.
Jamski-San, blood obscuring his vision, abandons any hope of defence and is unable to stop even this, an attack from Chaunk which looked too poorly placed to succeed.
spoiler(highlight to read):
Chaunk's spike is longer than Jamski's reach and he strikes with it deep into Jamski's chest. Jamski seems not to notice, and pushes forward relentlessly, the spike erupting from his back as he finally comes close enough to swing downward, allowing gravity to assist his near-powerless muscles and bring the razor-sharp blade down on Chaunk's exposed back, slicing lengthways into spine and shattering it conclusively.
Chaunk's body twitches briefly, random nerve impulses induced by the trauma to his spine. As his body collapses to the ground it twists the spike in Jamski's torso, shattering ribs and tearing one lung wide open. Jamski-San's head drops forward, perhaps in a last bow to a worthy opponent, or perhaps simply because there is nothing left to hold it up, and he collapses atop Chaunk on the blood-soaked sands of the arena.
The crowd sink slowly back into their seats, their former calls for blood silenced by the astounding skill and brutality they have seen in the arena. Skanky Burns stands and brings his hands together in a sharp clap, and in a moment the entire audience, from the commentary box to the cheap (and dangerous) front row seats, is giving the four dead competitors a standing ovation. They have seen a sight not seen before, and not likely to be repeated soon.
Both dead.
What are your preferences for a resolution?
Well, The Ram gets his wish - a double double kill. Ouch... I think that, regardless of other considerations, matches with a small penalty to power like this one are more tactically interesting than those with a large bonus to power, like the other semi.
My stories are starting to get excessively long now, but I think the performance deserves it :cool:
