Hey Sneeg, you're live.

    "I'm sorry."

    Through a constricted throat choked by tears I gasped, "Chat don't attack Sneeg."

    Schlatt let out a hollow laugh and stepped back, "That's a nice sentiment, you know they will anyways."

     I nodded, wiped my tears, and cleared my throat, "Fuck you."

     "The feeling's mutual." I could hear his grin.

     "This war ends now. With you." I brandished a sword.

     "Easy," Wilbur interrupted, "You're outnumbered."

     "No they're not, Schlatt doesn't fight." Cooper corrected.

     "This will be an endless battle. I suggest a compromise." Schlatt said menacingly.

     "What were you thinking?" My voice was now bitter and cold.

      "You know the story of David and Goliath? In those types of battles, both sides would send their most powerful asset forward and their fight would determine the war. David had his technology, Goliath had his strength." Schlatt offered.

       "Are you suggesting something similar?" I said curtly.

       "Just that. Looking at your less than stellar team, I can safely say they'll choose you."

       I wanted to bite back a response to his degradation of my team, but I knew that he was right. I wasn't with a good group of fighters, and I was the best. My other teammates didn't say anything in counter either.

       "Okay. Fight me." I pulled a sword.

       "Now, that's not fair. I don't fight, you'd be at a clear advantage. I'm more cunning, planning. You're more, 'blindly trust everyone and plan an ambush'." He chuckled and I clenched my teeth and gripped my mouse.

       "Shut the fuck up."

      "Relax. I'm choosing someone in my place, the strongest member of my team..."

       I already knew what he would say. How ever much I hoped it would be Cooper, I knew that it wouldn't be.

      "...Sneeg."

      Tightening my lips, I faced his avatar. Sneeg was an impenetrable warrior. The man who had 1v5'd a team of fighters. I was a good fighter, but now I flashed back to all the successful hits on me, and found myself stumbling on a particular memory. Sneeg, me, and Krinios. Ryan had a hit on me, and afterwards I had returned the favor. I reminisced on us three joking and laughing.

       Sneeg had been a traitor then. The thought hit me like a truck. During that encounter, where it was all positive and laughter, where the only concern was my late night tweets. He had known that he would betray me. He had sat there, laughing. I found newfound anger coursing through my veins.

        "This is the end." I grinned manically, my eyebrows clenching. I pulled a diamond sword, a symbol of what I was fighting for. But it felt like I wasn't just fighting for three diamonds anymore.

        "So be it." Sneeg responded, his composed nature rivaling my chaos.

        Both groups stepped back. And I charged. He dodged. He swung. I got hit. We fell into a rhythm, dodging attacks, getting hits when we could. My shield lay unused in my hot bar. Gritting my teeth, I put everything I possibly could into this fight.

      Slash

       Oof

      I knew I was getting hits on him, but was exceedingly nervous at my diminishing health bar.
