Alternate Destiny: Sloth's Reign
Author's Notes: Sooorrryyyy! I've been sooo busy with all my work I could hardly remember to update this! I'll try harder next time, really! Reviews will be appreciated!
Gardenia's eyes sparkled with triumph as she stared down the pathetic Owner. She was a sight to behold as her orange bangs matched the aura of crackling intense flames around her smoking crimson cloak.
Somehow she wasn't affected by the fire and smoke, being an Arena Master and Wielder of Fire truly was a blessing to her.
"Well, Sabrina! We meet now, but you're trespassing on my Arena!" She accented the harsh words with the whip, transforming it into a blazing instrument of deadly power!
The red aura lengthened down the leather whip, engulfing the form with sizzling flames.
"Try to dodge this!" yelled Gardenia as she headed the weapon towards Sabrina...!
The Owner jumped in the air to avoid getting hit- as the whip amazingly missed its mark and ricocheted off the metal floor with a loud swoosh!
A crack of the whip once more as the Arena Master growled with extreme anger and retracted the weapon. "Take that- you are finished!"
With a scorching kick she charged at Sabrina ferociously.
But by using her graceful agility, Sabrina somehow ducked the move as easily as if she was already a master, eventually landing with both her feet intact…
"Calais told me you would be here- and you still elude me with your skills!" raged Gardenia, "What more can you, pathetic Owner, take? Have you been training lately?"
"What?" said Sabrina, "Calais?" So that jealous jokester was a traitor after all! Holding her pike, Sabrina glared at Gardenia.
"Don't you remember that you were once a Rebel?" Gardenia defensively shook her head, clearly she was saying no.
"I have no idea what you're talking about, who told you such things?"
"Maxine of the Rebels did. He told me you're brainwashed by the tyrant Sloth."
"I don't believe you!" snarled the Arena Master angrily, "You liar, you are lying!"
"This isn't you, Gardenia Sera. Can't you see that your abusive anger isn't your own?" continued Sabrina as the caged Neopets watched in amazement at the scene…
"I'll give you one last chance… If you can defeat me, the Arena Master, in the ultimate Death Arena battle... Then I will set all the caged Neopets free."
"If you lose- your Neopets won't ever see the light of day again!" Gardenia roared with laughter much to Sabrina's disgust…
"I will accept your challenge..." resigned Sabrina.
Maxine was standing there near the walls, watching the scenery go by.
Suddenly, Calais came by his side with his red Peophin, Phoebe. His rival's face had a look of urgency and panic, Max frowned - Was something unnaturally wrong? Calais stopped panting and wheezing.
"Maxine- they- they- captured your girlfriend!" There was a stunned look on Max's face as he didn't know whether to trust Calais or not.
But the blond boy seemed extremely serious… "You-you mean it?" stuttered Max in shock.
Calais nodded with a curt sigh. But unknown to Max, he was actually making a fabricated lie…
