Jess had fought her way through many opponents   with enough skills to survive but not enough to draw attention, but even the vast slip up and this next fight would be prof of that.

Jess was getting tired as there were hundreds of prisoners so there was a lot of fighting.

The clanging of swords rang through the arena the earlier fights didn't last that long as most prisoners where there for petty theft so when it came to fighting murderers or traitorous soldiers they didn't stand a chance. The crowd cheers as blood gets splatters everywhere as a stab wound is made or a limb is roped from the contestants body.

The bell rang. The fighters got closer. The man was a giant compered to Jess. He welded a mighty battle axe. The steel stained with blood. They circle each other knowing it is never a good idea to make the first move.
The giant of a man finally attacks. He movement shake the earth.

He strikes again. Jess spat out blood. 'Come on' Jess muttered to himself. The man grabs for Jess's head, his grotty fingers digging into her scalp. He throws her body into the arena wall. Jess had survived all of his fights but now is exhausted. Jess finally closes his eyes. His body falls limp.
