"LORD ZIN PLEASE RECONSIDER!"
Isabel pleaded to him.
"Forgive me, young princess.
Once a king's family has been threatened he has no choice to but defend them."
Zin said as Amara laughed.

"Brave but altogether foolish.
Now seeing as to how I challenged you, the right to pick how we should compete is your choice."
Zin shrugged and thought for a moment.

"Hmmm, I can't think of anything you pick."
Zin told him to everyone's surprise.
"Why?"
Isabel thought.

"He could have picked something Amara has no experience in. Then he may have stood a chance. Why did he give the right to choose to him Amara?"
She thought to herself trying not to break down.
Amara started to laugh as he crossed his arms.

"Fine, then it shall be a one on one duel.
There will be no time limit; the duel will continue until the other is no longer able to stand. There are no restrictions, fight with whatever means you find necessary."

Zin held his hand out to Amara.

"It's a deal then."
Amara, at first confused, shook Zin's hand.

"A deal indeed. So where shall we commence our duel?"

"The Colosseum isn't fully repaired yet."
Garen said.

"Perhaps we should wait until then."
Garen said trying to prolong the duel.

"No, this duel will happen tonight."
Amara demanded.

"The ocean should be fine then."
Zin said, walking towards a window.
The royal dining room had a large open view facing the ocean.

"The ocean?"
Lady moon questioned

"There's nothing to stand on."
Zin laughed as he called for Jikan.
Jikan appeared next to him bowing.

"Yes, your majesty?"

"Would you mind making us a stadium to fight on?"

"Of course my lord."
Without any hesitation, Jikan stood upright and pointed two fingers up.
The ground started to shake as something started to rise from the ocean.

It was 5 miles off the coast of the island.
When a large chunk of the earth came rising from the sea.
It was 600ft wide and perfectly smooth and flat.
It was made out of gray rocks from the bottom of the seafloor.
Amara scoffed at the sight of this.

"Not bad for an advisor."
He said crossing his arms

"It's massive!"
Garen said in awe as the world leaders were all impressed.

All but Clockwork he kept his composure and took no notice of this.
He continued to sit in his chair and eat his food.
"Let's go."
Amara said as he leaped out of the window and
towards the fighting stage.

"Ara, could you make a drawing for papa?"
Ara smiled and nodded.

She quickly ran to the table and started to draw with crayons given to her by Alice.
Zin was about to leap out the window when Isabel grabbed his sleeve.

"Please......please don't do this."
She said with tears were coming down her face.

"It was your father wasn't it?"
Isabel looked up in surprise as Zin turned to her and held her hand.
