"Um... w-would it trouble you to give me a..." She shuffled her feet on the ground a bit, "well... a direct yes or no?"

Omio answered in the stead of Kriven. "Quite a bit. But after the second last attack, she began her laughing-of-evil-sorts."

She looked surprised at Josh's explanation, and then glared fiercely down at Kriven. "Y... Yo-You hurt Ashley?!" She hefted her mace again. "I... I... I'm g-gonna have t-to punish you!"

He stopped her at first, then let her resume. "Go ahead. Although I hope you're quick on your feet."

Moses jumped to his feet, scooping up his dagger. Without saying a word, He darted forward and lashed out his weapon, catching the mace in mid-air. No easy feat, he grunted as he pushed the mace up and standed in front of her. Almost locking the mace in position with his dagger, he smiled.
"Now now, thats not exactly the.... conduct of someone whos going around preaching to us to stop the violence, no is it? I won't go as far as calling you a hypocrite, but..... you're a hypocrite. Oh, well..... Anyway... Now, this kid here..." He said, gesturing toward kriv, "... could probably have jumped out of the way before you hit him, but now, i can't miss calling someone a hypocrite. Its just too much fun."
"Now, back to the point. I do believe your.... friend, *cough* demon lady *cough*, was going attack someone anyway, so.... And we couldn't just let her do that, now could we? We have to, stop the violence, right?" He smiled again. "Now you can let up with the mace, or i can make you. Its a choice, eh?"

Fiona panicked. She had almost forgotten about Moses. "Uh, well, I, uh... p-people who attack others need to be punished! I-I lost track of Ashley, and th-then I found her like that, so... so someone had to have attacked her!" She pushed Moses's blade away, and made to counter-attack, but ultimately, she hesitated, and chose to take a few steps back.

"I attacked first, but in case you hadn't noticed, we're in an arena. I thought she was one of the contestants." Kriven explained, still laying on the ground with one eye half-open.

"...I'll tell you the true story about this place... Moses, Josh... you guys might wanna listen too. You're new here... there's something very bad, because it's not just an arena.. No doubt you guys entered a fighting compotition simply for the prize, as for Ashley and you, you were chasing her." Kriven says, his voice deepening a bit, quieting down so only the group around him can hear.

"W-Well... it was Ryuu and Zaber who entered us all in... I don't know where they are now." Fiona said abashedly.

"Doesn't mattered, we're all screwed if we can't beat that." Kriven says, pointing towards the large arena doors.
Entering through the stadium doors is the largest, most grotesquely barbaric creature that could even be remotely human. Bulging muscles, veins popping like worms from the dirt. Square jawed with over-large teeth, one jutting from his lower lip like a primitive fang. Hair shaved into a menacing mohawk held up by an ape-like forehead.
"That's Kirk, current arena champion. We can't beat him, we don't leave the arena." Kriven says, monotonously.

"Wh... wha... what in the name of the Purest Light is that?!" She gasped. "I... I have to find everybody...!"

"That's.. um... Well I like to call hima neanderthal, but only if he's out of earshot." Kriven smirks, "And as I was saying, we don't take Rocky over there down, the arena administrators will keep us captive, for amusement tomorrow, and the next day. Until we beat the champion, then we choose to be the champ or leave the arena."
