“And now I'll hand it off to lord Keiran!” said Sir eric. Lord Keiran, the predecessor of the man I saw chasing me in my nightmares. He looks about in his early thirties. He's tall, has jet black hair, and he looks so regal in his navy blue suit. “Thank you, Sir. Eric, there's some rules of my little tournament, there’s six rounds the first three will be opponent vs. opponent then the fourth round will be against the remaining two competitors and the final two rounds will be against people I have specifically chosen for this tournament.” “now let the games begin!” Lord Keiran said and the audience went wild with excitement. There were five other people I would have to beat to get the prize money and maybe some answers. The first opponent I was put against was a skinny fellow. He had a little muscle, his weapon of choice is a fencing sword. The match lasted about ten minutes. It was an easy round, not much of a challenge but I had a feeling the next rounds weren’t going to be as easy. The next rounds went pretty quickly, no one I fought in those rounds was much of a challenge and now I was the final contestant. There were still three more rounds but it was against people lord Keiran hand picked for this tournament. I knew it wouldn't be easy to get the 2000 gold and the position as lord Keiran’s assistant and find out the truth about that night twelve years ago. “Attention everyone!” Sir. Eric announced. “Since we’re half way through the tournament we’re going t have a 15 minute break before our finalist battles against the three opponents Lord Keiran picked!” I was in the women's locker when elora came in, she entrapped me in a huge hug congratulating me on my win, “you were amazing out there darling!’ elora said while hugging me “thank you elora but you never told me about the part of the prize about being Lord Keiran’s assistant.” I say to her. “Yes, yes i forgot to mention that, i’m sorry for not telling you that.” elora says “elora… remember when i told you about the same nightmare I've had for 12 years now?” I ask her, “yes what of it I know it’s a sensitive spot for you since it's about your parents.”
“Well I finally saw the person who was chasing me through the woods.” “That’s great now you can find some closure then?” elora tells me. “Well…. The person I saw was I think lord Keiran’s predecessor Lord Richard III” I told elora honestly. Elora just stood there for at least a good five minutes until a guard came in to say that the tournament is about to start again “we will talk about this after okay?” Elora says with that caring gentle smile of hers as she leaves to go back to her seat in the stands. “Ma'am, it's time to go back to the arena.” the guard tells me. “Yes coming.”
