Chapter 31:

Sam was brought to a room, and sitting in a chair, was Narim. He looked at her he had one of those evil smiles on his face. Sam could feel how her muscles tensed. He then ordered the Jaffa to leave. Sam was now all alone, with him!

Narim took two gauntlets and poured a drink in. "You know, where I am from, it's not polite to refuse a man's marriage proposal.". Sam then spitted on his boots. "Where I am from, you don't just marry a man who tries to kill the one the woman loves.". Narim shrugged as he had the two gauntlets in his hands. "I admit, I am flawed, but I think I can make you… the happiest woman alive." He told her as he handed her one of the gauntlets. But all she did was throw the drink in his face. Narim then slapped her across the face. "You bitch!".

Back at Ares:

Ares just finished a coffee; he was thinking to himself. The fat guy was gone. He was still confused on how it was possible to know who he was, did the ascended ones watch him? Well in that case, he kind of felt freaked out by that thought. If O'Neill finds out that he was watched by the Ancients while he was fucking his fiancé, he would freak!

The fat guy came in again with a newspaper again. He walked over to Ares. "Have you seen the front-page?". He dropped the newspaper. "O'Neill is gonna die in some ring of fire, ever heard of it?". Ares took the paper and read it. "What? Impossible! He won't survive in there!". He jumped up and ran for the door, only to get tripped by an old man holding his walking stick out. "You can't leave. Not until you forefeel your destiny.". Ares got up. "Why? My friend is gonna die!".

Oma then said: "When the sun rises over the horizon, the light returns for another day.". Ares crossed his arms. "Okay, stop your bullshit! I don't care about ascension! My friend is gonna die!". Oma smiled at him. "Why do you think I am helping you to learn how to ascend? Your selflessness makes you pure of heart. With the power of ascension, you can easily defeat Anubis.".

The fat man snorts. "Why would he do that if he's 'pure of heart'?". Ares balled his fists and stepped up to the fat guy. "Who do you think am I? Another system lord?! I am not!". The sneers as he sips on his coffee. "Yeah right, your no better then the Goa'uld. Funny thing is, the reason why Anubis ascended in the first place, is because of Oma.".

Ares spun around, to see an ashamed Oma. "The fucker tricked you? How-" but then he stopped. He turned around to the guy. "How did you know Anubis tricked her?". The guy sighs. "I said too much.". Ares then slammed his hand on the table. "Bullshit!".

Back at Jack:

The healer was now helping Jack into his battle armour. It was regular Jaffa armour, but more of an ancient Rome gladiator style. His last piece, was his helmet. He placed it on himself as he breathed. "Here goes nothing.".

The gate rose and he walked out to find himself in an arena. The crowd were cheering, eager to see blood and guts spilling. Jack walked up to a weapon rack. He took a sword and a double-headed axe. Anubis was on a throne. With Narim sitting in a big chair, his one foot resting on the seat. Sam was forced to sit next to him, she was wearing a black body-clad dress. Squeezing hers curves and exposing her stomach and the top of her breasts. Jack could see she was afraid.

Anubis rose and said: "Release the wild beast!".

The crowd cheered as the draw gate rose, and a monster came running out. And not just any monster, but an Unas! Where did they get one of these, and it appeared to have been tortured. Jack got an a battle stance. The Unas roared as it ran for him. Jack didn't flinch, didn't show any fear. He then roared. And made a run for the Unas. He took his sword and pointed it forward. There was a roar sound. The Unas went limp as it dropped. Jack stood there with blood dripping from his sword.

Silence.

But they started cheering. Jack raised the sword and yelled at Narim. "I claim the right to challenge you Narim!". Narim rose from his seat and yelled: "You have no right to challenge!". Jack scoffed. "You too much of a coward?". Narim knew he was humiliating him.

He made it down with a huff. The draw gate rose and Narim walked up to the weapons rack. Narim took a spear and stood ready. He then charged at Jack. Jack swung his axe, colliding with Narim's spear, splitting the point. Narim stumbled as he threw his broken spear to the side.

He then attempted to tackle Jack and disarm him. Jack only shoved his knee between Narim's legs, hitting him in the scrotum. Narim winced and grabbed for it. Jack then round-house kicked him across the jaw. Narim crashed onto the floor with a thud. Jack stood over Narim with his sword inches from slicing his throat.

"Do you yield?!".
