You go outside.You quickly get up and look around you. Nothing seems out of place, it's the same as always, quiet, too quiet. You quickly get dressed and go out to investigate.You walk around the stadium for a few hours but there is no sign of any infected. That's strange, usually infected attack you at random. You remember that the man was wearing black clothing and feel around for any clues. You finally find his car and a blood trail leading inside the stadium. You follow the trail inside the stadium and finally see the man, he's sitting on a balcony looking out over the arena.

You call to him "Hey!"He turns to look at you and smiles, it's the same man from your dream. "Who are you?"He chuckles "And why is it that everyone asks me that?". You shrug and think he is cute.He seems to be thinking for a while before answering. He thinks some more and then finally speaks. "Well, if I told you, I'd have to kill you." 

You smile slightly "Aw come on,"He laughs again "I do promise though that if you help me find my answers, I will reward you."You think about it and the possible outcomes. You agree.He smiles again "Good, I was hoping you'd agree. You look very fit, do you do boxing?"You think about it and the possible answers that come to mind. You nod tentatively.He smiles again "I do too, would you do me the honor of fighting me one on one?"You stare back at him shocked "What? Are you serious?" You look shocked "I umm, sure.."He laughs again "As serious as a heart attack!"

You feel bad and decide to box really badly.He smiles as he watches you "You've got some quick hands, good". You think he is really cute.He laughs again "Quick enough to tie up a girl though, not many can" He gives you a big grin.You blush a deep crimson "Well I haven't actually tied one up before..." you say unsure of what else to say. He laughs out loud "Then it will be even" He grins and calls over the edge "Ready?" You nod. He calls back "I challenge you" You take a deep breath and do your best to focus, you know you are in good shape so you aren't too worried. 

"I accept" you say.He smiles again "Good, I knew you would" He turns back to look out over the arena. You look around.The inside of the stadium is packed with people, you can't see where half of them are coming from but there has to be hundreds of them. You wonder where they came from.The announcer comes on again "Ladies and gentlemen, the fight will now commence! The man with the yellow shirt, vs the man with the black shirt!"
