Part 2: Pious

I'm Pious Augustus. I am a crowed pleaser, and I'm a winner. I kill for the entertainment of others, without self satisfaction. I never wanted to be at this Random Draft. If it wasn't for Xan I would never have considered this career. Xan... I can't wait to get my hands on your throat.

I can still remember the day my father died. It haunts me, to see him collapse without a head in a pool of blood and brains, was maddening.

That was when I saw him. Saw him up atop a building. His sniper rifle in his hand and his malicious grin upon his face, I saw him. His scaled tail whipped around his feet. His claw like hand lifted to head height and then mimicked a gun. Bam...

That day always haunted me. It will always haunt me until I get my revenge upon that scaled beast. I will have his hide and skin him! Ill beat him like an old rug and hang him on my wall!

That day I started training. That day I began the quest. That day was my new beginning. Every time me and Xan met in battle it was quite a show for the audience. I ignored all others but him. We treated our matches as one on one.

I had one thing going for me. I was the favorite. He was slime, and I was the people's champ. I was the one they rooted for. When I found out that this season was going to be a random draft I hurriedly signed up. Think of the opportunity to end up on his team and then kill him outside the arena.

"Pious Augustus, team..."
