Amazon's Coliseum III (ENG)

Chapter 67: Sabu

Minerva Arena, The City

The atmosphere of initial joy and celebration transformed into a funereal one. People in the audience discussed, whispered, and gave their opinions.

-Well, how could the idiot even think of fighting that monster?

-Even so, she put up a fight...

-I'm hearing she died.

-My god...

-Why should I care?! I lost everything betting on that bozo!

In contrast, among the girls, the atmosphere was extremely dismal. The paramedics arrived, performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation maneuvers to no response. The girls didn't stop crying; some tried to console each other.

-Blazer! Please... they're doing everything they can –Alan tried to calm her down.

-I... it's just... she... isn't breathing... sh-she –the poor girl couldn't even articulate words because of the uncontrollable crying that overwhelmed her.

Marissa was with Blazer, hugging her but unable to say anything, because she was still in shock seeing her like that. Others were more desperate.

-¡Pero apuraos, coño!

-Erika! –Omeya, crying, tried to control Veneno–. Stop, they're doing what they can!

Dumas groaned, trying to contain her sobs, embraced by Pfefferberg and Siff, but her sounds and tears already betrayed her, until she couldn't take it anymore and broke down.

Other people, like Vivi, preferred to be alone with her pain, crying, sitting in a corner and hiding her face between her knees while sobbing. Artemis only watched the efforts of the medical team, with a face that showed she wished to wake up from this nightmare. Ale and Emy were with her, witnessing with defeated expressions. Meanwhile, Dragana, kneeling in front of Aurora, although slightly covered by the paramedics, only watched with helplessness as tears streamed down her face. Tamaki was by her side, sharing her sorrow.

And then...

-... it seems she's reacting to stimuli... but very weakly –said one of the medics.

A paramedic receives an instruction over his radio.

-... Got it... We need to transport her, everything is ready. Quick, we have no time.

Dragana reacted to what she heard, standing up immediately.

-What happened? –Marissa ran towards her.

-It seems she's reacting to stimuli.

All the girls became alert, stepping aside.

-Come on, Aurora! –Saeta shouted at her–. You can do it!

-Hang in there!

The girls tried to encourage her, and even some present applauded her loudly in farewell.

-I'll go with her –Artemis indicated to them.

-Me too! –Dragana also said.

-I'm going...

But after what Blazer said, several armed men from the Vitebsk Office blocked the girls' path, although they allowed Aurora to leave.

-Get the fuck out of the way! I don't care if you kill me too!

-What more do you want?! –Marissa yelled at them–. What more do you want, Dad?! Enough is enough!

-Tch... bastards –Dragana muttered.
