This is just a short story I wrote... essentially me establishing how well I can write long choreographed fight scenes with some emotional trauma at the end. First thing I've actually shared like this... sooo criticism is always welcome. I'll put a little blurb anyway. The main character is fighting his way through an arena on a path for revenge against the man who killed his wife. When the story kicks off, he is facing down the killer of his wife.
