Damn it's been a whole year since I last updated this one! Sorry for the delay people I just got a bad case of writer's block and I mean a really bad case. Anyway I hope it was worth the wait and that you enjoy this update! Special thanks goes to panel member Metal Harbinger for being a bro, you're a real one man.

WHO IS DEADLIEST?!

To find out, we've assembled a team of world class fighters to test history's most lethal weapons. Using 21st century science, we'll see what happens when two warriors go toe to toe.

No rules. No safety. No mercy. It's a duel to the death to decide who is...THE DEADLIEST WARRIOR!

Here in our elite fight club we have gathered doctors, medical scientists and weapons experts to test out the lethal arsenals wielded by each of our combatants to determine who would win a fight between two vicious reptilian creatures.

''Today on Deadliest Warrior: Fiction Edition we're bringing in two reptilian species to duke it out when the Lizardfolk from Forgotten Realms takes on Mortal Kombat's Saurian warrior.'' DeadAliveManiac explained.

''I can't wait to see what these two creatures will do since a few weapons they have are parts of their body. The Lizardfolk are much taller than the Saurian but the latter has acid that can melt through pretty much anything!'' Zivon96 said.

''It's a great match where one side fights head on and rely on brute force whereas the other mostly fights with stealth and pure aggression. It's gonna be those subtle differences that will decide the winner of this great battle.'' MKDemigodZ-Warrior added.

''Brute force versus stealth tactics, both sides have natural gifted weapons that are part of their bodies and two vicious reptilian species. Let's see who takes it so let's get this started gents.'' Its Rice Man concluded.

The Lizardfolk possess no history so these creatures believe hemselves to be one of the first humanoid races of Toril. Based on what their own self-told stories say they have dwelled in the swamps since the beginning of time and that all civilized races outside the swamps evolved from the weaker lizardfolk who could not endure the harsh life of the swamps. They then would become a tribal society and got their food from hunting, fishing and scavenging.

''These are some seriously dangerous predators and anyone or anything who trespassed in their swamp became their next meal and the Saurian better be careful if he doesn't want to be devoured.'' Rice Man explained.

The swamp dwelling reptilian charges into battle with weapons perfect for cutting down foes.

Short Range: Longsword

Mid-Range: Glaive

Long Range: Short Bow

Special Weapons: Barbed Dart and Tail

But how will the swamp native fare against another highly vicious and dangerous reptilian assassin?

The Saurians, also called the raptors are a race of reptilian humanoids originating from Earthrealm. Having evolved from the dinosaurs they come from a civilization that thrived countless centuries ago. Their age coming to an end when a devastating war between the Elder Gods ravaged Earthrealm They would flee to another realm known as Zaterra where they would attempt to thrive once more until the emperor of Outworld Shao Kahn arrived to conquer the realm.

''They fought back against all these different threats and while they tried as hard as they could they went nearly extinct. They've beaten various enemies like the Shokan, Tarkatan, Centuars and humans and I think the Lizardfolk will be seen as just some bothersome vermin.'' Rice Man concluded.

The Saurian brought in his own arsenal to tear through all his adversaries.

Short Range: Kirehashi

Mid-Range: Battle Axe

Long Range: Acid Spit

Special Weapon: Claws

When both reptilians fought up close they relied on two highly deadly blades. Up first will be the Lizardfolk with the trusted longsword.

''This is the sword most commonly used by our species. It was made of iron with a blade that measured 3 feet and weighed over 1 pound. Perfect for cutting apart all invaders to our swamp.'' actual Lizardfolk Griss'tok explained.

''To test that sword out we've set up our Saurian stand in made with material that will simulate the hardened skin of it. You have 15 seconds to dish out as much damage as possible.'' DAM explained.

Griss'tok growled and got into position in front of the Saurian stand in with his sword in hand.

''On 3...2...1...attack!'' DAM called out.

With a roar Griss'tok rushed forward with his sword and goes in for a thrust with it piercing clean through the torso's torso with an audible snap. Pulling the blade out he then swings at the torso's neck and severs the head in a gory spectacle and goes to sever both arms off before delivering some slashes to the gut before stabbing one more time through the chest.

''Time!"' DAM shouted.

Zivon then walks over to assess the damage done.

''DAMn, you pierces clean through the body and actually managed to sever the spine with it killing him instantly. You then followed that up with a swing at the neck and got this clear decapitation for another instant kill and then you chopped the arms off and that would kill quick through a bleedout if he isn't treated at a hospital like, right now. You then slashed him several times on the gut and those won't kill on their own but the combined amount of bleeding from the wounds if left untreated will finish him off. Last but not least you stabbed him once through the heart for another instant kill.'' explained Zivon.

Saurian expert and actual Saurian Reptile stepped up to give his opinion.

''It is no doubt a deadly blade but what I have will slice through anything I use it against.''

The Saurian slashes back with his own deadly blade, the Kirehashi.

''The Kirehashi was one of the most common weapons used by the Saurians in battle. It had a blade that measured 3 feet in length made of pure Zaterran steel and it was a bit heavier than my opponent's sword at 2 and a half pounds.'' Reptile explained.

''Wow that is one crazy looking blade!'' Demigod exclaimed in awe.

''To test that weapon out we're gonna have you attack our Lizardfolk stand in made in the material to simulate their scales with a shield for inspiration. Same time for you as well Reptile.'' DAM explained.

Reptile nods and gets into position with his blade held in both hands.

''On 3...2...1...cut em up!'' DAM called out.

Saying nothing Reptile lunges forward and goes in for a slash at the target's lower abdomen and slices almost completely through much to the awe of the panelists. The target's intestines spills out. Smirking at his handiwork Reptile then shifts his focus to the target's arms and slices those completely off before finishing it off with a clean decapitation just as DAM called time.

Zivon puts on his gloves and walks over to inspect the damage.

''Well golly look at the damage here! The slashes you did on this guy are incredibly nasty and for the first one you literally disemboweled him in one fell swoop and that would be enough to kill him in a few seconds as he bleeds out. For the second slash you...well you severed the arms off and he will very quickly bleed to death and the last one is well, it's obvious cause you lost your head you're dead boy.'' explained the good doctor.

''A very deadly weapon indeed but it is a one-dimensional weapon whereas mine gives you options plus, we use it in conjunction with our shield giving us both offensive and defensive capabilities.'' Griss'tok interjected.

''It may be one-dimensional but I favor the damage it causes to my enemy.'' Reptile said.

After testing out the lethality of these two blades which one does the panel believe take the edge?

''I say the kirehashi wins it for dishing out worse damage despite being slash only.'' DAM started off.

''The damage that thing can dish out is crazy! Despite being the more one-directional weapon the fact that you can slice someone and get an instant kill is enough to win me over.'' Zivon seconded.

''I don't like that you can't stab someone with it but the damage speaks for itself. It's just a more deadly blade with that kind of damage.'' Demigod added.

''Agreed, the longsword is great when paired with the shield but it still doesn't compare to the horrid injuries the kirehashi gives you. All you need is one slice one kill.'' Rice Man concluded.

In short range weapons, the edge goes to the Saurian for the kirehashi.

Coming up, two deadly mid-ranged weapons go head-to-head and then later two differing long range weapons bring death.

XXXXXX

Lizardfolk, Saurian. Two reptilian humanoids destined for a death battle. If they fought to the death which one will win the battle?

For mid-range combat both side brought in two dangerous murdering tools to get the job done. Two different weapons used to hack and slice their enemies apart. Up first will be the Saurian with his favorite hacking weapon.

''The battle axe used by the Saurians was a weapon made of steel with a double-sided axe head. It weighs 4 and a half pounds with a length of 3 and a half feet. The perfect weapon for a Saurian warrior to hack his enemies to pieces.'' Reptile explained displaying his weapon proudly for the panel to see.

''Axes are some of my favorite weapons because of how crazy the damage they do is and to test that thing out we've set up another Lizardfolk stand in. We'll give you three strikes to the head and body to see what you can do with that axe of yours.'' DAM explained.

''Very well, lead the way.'' Reptile said.

Reptile then walks over to stand in front of the Lizardfolk gel torso stand in and waits for the signal from DAM.

''Okay Reptile on my mark. 3...2...1...hack em up!''

Roaring Reptile takes his axe and raises it high and brings it down with as much strength he could muster onto the gel Lizardfolk's head splitting the appendage in half down the middle sending blood flying everywhere much to the awe of the panelists.

''Holy crap that's gory!'' Demigod exclaimed excitedly.

Taking his axe he raises it high once again and brings it down onto the torso's shoulder with a sickening crunch slicing rather deep into the body before he takes the weapon and goes to load up for a good swing and slams the axe head into the torso's gut with a sickening wet crunch.

''Well DAMn let's see what we have here.'' Zivon said as he walked over, ''So I think I'll skip the first cut since it should be quite obvious Reptile. You chopped his head clean in half for an instant kill! This is one of those moments where you get hit and you don't even know what happened as your world turns dark so this one is a quick messy kill. The second strike saw you bring that axe down and you managed to cut half a foot into the body and from the injuries visible you chopped through his clavicle and collapsing his lung and you even got the brachial artery for a fast bleedout. The attack on the gut you managed to hack almost four inches into this Lizardfolk's body and you cut the liver open which is gonna bleed bad leading to a death if he isn't treated.''

''A good weapon to leave my enemies into pieces.'' Reptile said with a smirk.

''While I will not deny the carnage here I could not help but notice that you really had to load up for each swing. With my weapon you won't have that problem.'' Griss'tok said unimpressed.

The Lizardfolk answers the battle axe's brutal display with a lethal polearm of his own.

''The glaive is a weapon that we love to use against man or beast. Perfect for keeping the enemy at bay and stabbing them to death. It is over 8 feet long and weighs 3 and a half pounds.'' explained Griss'tok.

''And the test we have set up for you we will have an attack bot to simulate a charging Saurian warrior. Simply take that weapon and thrust it and we'll see if you can kill in one hit.'' DAM explained.

Griss'tok then gets into position with his glaive and waits for the attack bot.

Demigod then takes the controller and turning it on he uses the control stick to send the Saurian attack bot forward at a moderate speed and when the bot comes within striking distance of Griss'tok he roars as he thrusts with all his might at the bot stopping it dead in its tracks.

''GodDAMn that was nasty it's a blood fountain!'' Zivon said as he walked over, ''That blade is freaking huge and upon further inspection you manages to skewer his heart, aorta and spine all in one! The heart one is obvious since you pierces clean through it and it would kill instantly. The same can be said for the aorta since it's gonna bleed like a bad menstrual cycle and the severed spine and spinal cord won't actually kill but will leave your enemy paralyzed and exposed to other forms of attack.''

After testing out these two deadly weapons which one does the panel believe take the edge?

''I'm siding with the glaive on this one for being longer and less cumbersome.'' DAM started off.

''I disagree and give it to the battle axe. Granted it is a lot more tiring to use but I just can't ignore how ugly anyone who gets chopped up by it look.'' Zivon countered.

''Disagreed I gotta give it to the glaive. It's longer and can keep the Saurian at bay and isn't gonna tire the Lizardfolk out.'' Demigod said.

''I'm with Demigod and DAM on this one. Sure the axe is insanely nasty and will definitely be a one chop one kill weapon but the Saurian would be stabbed to death by the time he swings the axe once. Glaive takes the edge in my book.'' Rice Man concluded.

In mid-range weapons, the edge goes to the Lizardfolk for the glaive.

Coming up a deadly bow goes up against a viscous projectile and then later two reptilian species battle to the death!

XXXXXX

Lizardfolk, the vicious swamp dwelling native who fight to defend their home. Or, the Saurian, Zaterra's lethal and deadly assassin. Which reptilian warrior will stand victorious and which one will be beaten?

When these two warriors needed a long range weapon to kill their opponents from afar they brought with them two different methods. Up first will be the Saurian with a hidden surprise in his body.

''Most warriors would have a bow or a throwing weapon for long range combat. Us Saurians however have a different type of method for long range combat which would be our acid spit. It is a very deadly weapon that can melt through anything it comes into contact with.'' Reptile explained.

To test out the damage and lethality of the acid spit DAM has set up two targets. One will be a Lizardfolk gel bust and the other will be a slab of beef to see how the acid spit will be on real flesh.

''Okay Reptile the targets are all set so whenever you're ready give it to them.'' DAM said.

Reptile steps up to the targets and takes in a big breath and a second later he opens his mouth and spits out a glob of green at the bovine slab and the panel almost threw up just by the stench of the material and could only watch as it melted through almost the entire slab. Smirking at his handiwork Reptile takes another breath and spits another glob at the Lizardfolk bust and the torso was melted down to the bone.

''Uh, that was just really gross. So acid burns are just horrifying injuries and are just a nightmare to treat. From where you struck the bovine slab you got it in the chest and comparing this to a Lizardfolk you would've melted your way through the skin, muscles and down to the organs themselves leading to a kill. For the gel bust you melted his damn face! You melted him all the way down to the bone and even his eyes are gone. This would be another painful kill.'' Zivon explained barely able to hold his composure at the gruesome sight.

''I am not intimidated at all. Yes it was gruesome but I can see that acid coming from a mile away and my weapon will take you down before you can spit at me.'' Griss'tok said giving his opinion.

''The Lizardfolk would not see this coming and when used he will be reduced to nothing but a puddle of melted flesh.'' Reptile sneered.

The Lizardfolk responds to the vile acid with one of the most ancient weapons ever used in warfare.

''We used the short bow as our long ranged weapon. It was made of wood and bone, was 3 feet in length and we used ironheaded arrows. It isn't as powerful as bigger bows but it served us greatly.'' Griss'tok explained.

''Alright so let's see if you can beat out the acid spit.'' DAM said pointing toward three torsos, ''We've set up three gel torsos that will simulate charging Saurians. We will give you six arrows to stop them all. Whenever you're ready let's get started.''

Grunting, Griss'tok steps into position and strings his first arrow and waits for the signal from DAM.

''Okay Griss'tok, 3...2...1...shoot em up!'' DAM called out.

Griss'tok watches as the attack bots began their charge toward him and aiming at the right target he fires one arrow hitting it dead center in the face. Quickly stringing another arrow he fires another and strikes it in the chest causing it to stop before taking a third arrow and fires a third one in the throat. He sets his sights on the left target and fires an arrow hitting it in the mouth before firing another one that strikes the gel torso in the gut. With his last two he wastes no time in shooting the last attack bot in both eyes stopping it in its tracks.

Zivon then makes his way over to assess the damage.

''Well shit. You shot the first target once in the face and where you hit you managed to hit the brain stem cutting off all functionality and getting an instant kill. You then moved to shoot him in the chest and struck the lung which won't kill, just collapse the lung but you'll leave him open to other forms of attack and you finished him off with an arrow to the throat for another instant kill as it severed the spinal cord. The second target you managed to get him in the mouth shutting him up permanently. This one isn't death but a very critical injury and the arrow to the gut won't kill as well just another horrible injury. The last target you shot him in both eyes and combined these will kill through shock.''

''Compared to that acid spit I can take the Saurian down from a farther distance so it should be over before he can get close to me.'' Griss'tok said with a smirk.

''But when we close that distance you will be melted and dead on the floor.'' Reptile snarked.

Short bow or acid spit? Which one does the panel believe take the edge?

''I'm siding with the acid spit all the way. There's no way around that thing despite the spit flying at you at a slower speed.'' DAM said.

''Acid injuries are just so bad to treat and even if the Lizardfolk is hit in a non vital area he is still screwed from the pain itself. Edge acid spit.'' Zivon seconded.

''For real, just the damage alone won me over and I'm pretty sure it's a guaranteed kill every time. Acid spit all the way through.'' Demigod added.

''Sure the bow has a much longer range and can strike the Saurian before he can get close enough to use his acid spit but the damage speaks for itself. Edge to the Saurian and his acid spit.'' Rice Man concluded.

In long range weapons, the edge goes to the Saurian for the acid spit.

Coming up two deadly special weapons are brought for carnage. Lizardfolk? Or Saurian? Which reptilian will be the deadliest warrior?

XXXXXX

When our warriors fought their enemies with special weapons they relied on different methods of attack. Up first will be the Saurian with a last resort tactic.

''When we had no access to our other weapons we would use our claws.'' Reptile explained while displaying his claws for the panel.

''Nice, we would really like for you to demonstrate this weapon for us and we've set up a scenario where you will be surrounded by a group of enemies. You will have 10 enemies to deal with so we want to see how deadly those claws are.'' DAM explained.

''Very well then.''

Reptile then gets into position in the 'Circle of Doom' and waits for the targets to attack.

''Okay Reptile on 3...2...1...release the Lizardfolk!''

Reptile eyes the first target as it comes flying at him on a zip line and when it comes within striking distance he swings his claws as hard as he could and hits it right in the temple sending it flying off the line and onto the floor with a thud. The second target comes flying toward him and he wasted no time in swinging right for the face and tears off most of the skin before kicking the target away just as the third one comes at him and he swings at the torso with a sickening tear.

''Damn he's quick!'' Demigod commented.

On cue DAM sends two torsos Reptile's way and smirking to himself the Saurian warrior swings both his arms outward and manages to strike both targets in the temple sending them flying away and was immediately greeted to the sixth target to which he wastes no time and sends his claws in an uppercut and sends the target flying off the line and on the floor. Wanting to give Reptile even more of a challenge DAM sends the last four torsos at the Saurian and with quick and precise strikes he swings his claws into each and every one of their heads sending blood everywhere.

''Hot DAMn that was crazy.'' DAM commented earning a nod from Rice Man.

''I don't really have to elaborate do I? These guys are getting shredded to pieces and if Reptile's attacks don't kill them then the bleeding after would. You even struck a few of these guys in the head hard enough to pierce deep into their skull and into the brain for instant kills. The one torso you hit in the torso was deep enough to collaspe both lungs and lead to another kill.'' Zivon explained.

Griss'tok walked over and shook his head at the display.

''With my weapon there will be no way a Saurian will come close to me to use those puny claws.''

The Lizardolk strikes back with a lethal combination attack of his barbed dart and tail.

''The barbed dart was another common weapon we will use. It was made of wood with an iron tip and measured 3 feet with a weight of 5 pounds. Our other weapon would be our tail and while it is not a lethal weapon on its own we can stun you with it and finish you off with another weapon.'' Griss'tok explained while holding the dart.

''Okay so to test this combination out we've set up two attacking Saurians. One will be stationary for the tail and the other will be charging at you.''

Griss'tok then got into position and waited for the signal from DAM.

''Okay Griss'tok on 3...2...1...attack!''

The charging attack bot sped toward the Lizardfolk warrior and Griss'tok wasted no time in hurling his barbed dart right at the target hitting it dead center in the chest. He then looks at the stationary target and swings his tail as hard as he could right in the temple sending the target falling over with a loud thud.

''Shit.'' Zivon said to himself as he walked over, ''Your dart managed to pierce clean through the sternum and into the aorta for an instant kill.'' he then walks over to the downed stationary target, ''You struck him in the temple so hard you definitely knocked him unconscious and left a pretty bad concussion on this guy so this one is alive and well unless there's bleeding in the brain from such a strike.''

''What a pitiful sight, my claws are deadly every time they hit.'' Reptile commented obviously unimpressed.

''But you need to get in close to use them and with my dart and tail you won't be anytime soon.'' Griss'tok shot back.

Both reptilians then inched closer to one another and were growling ready to fight.

''Should we stop them?'' DAM asked.

''Nah, let them fight.'' Rice Man said.

''You just wanna watch big lizard dudes fight huh?'' Demigod questioned.

After testing out two different special weapons which one does the panel believe take the edge?

''I'm siding with the claws on this one due to the fact that they are lethal every time they hit you and the damage is worse.'' DAM started off.

''I disagree and go with the Lizardfolk on this one. He has two methods of attack with one being a distance weapon and the other giving him options to trip and ensnare the Saurian and he can do it farther away.'' Zivon countered.

''Well, I disagree with you and agree with DAM on the claws because of what DAM said they're lethal with each strike.'' Demigod said.

''Well, I disagree with you for disagreeing with DAM for agreeing with Zivon and give this one to the Lizardfolk. He can strike from a further distance and if he misses with the dart he still has his tail to knock out the Saurian then stab him with his sword.'' Rice Man countered.

The cameraman then points the camera at Metal who couldn't help but shake his head at how childish the banter between the other panelists was.

''Well, I disagree with all of you for not agreeing to disagree. Or disagreeing to agree.''

In special weapons, our warriors are even.

For the armor category both the Lizardolk and Saurian did not rely on real armor such as steel plates, but rather their own bodies of hardened skin and scales.

''I'm giving this one to the Lizardolk, I mean c'mon men he has a DAMn shield.'' DAM explained.

''Can't disagree there so I agree.'' Zivon seconded.

''Agreed, the shield adds an extra layer of protection.'' Demigod added.

''Yeah I agree as well.'' Rice Man concluded.

In the armor category, the edge goes to the Lizardolk for his hardened scales and turtle shield

Coming up! Metal will evaluate the x-factors and then our battle between reptilian humanoids begin!

XXXXXX

Welcome back to the Fight Club. Here we tested our the weapons of two deadly reptilian humanoids to determine who is deadlest.

For short range weapons the more damaging blade of the kirehashi sliced the longsword to ribbons.

'Even though it is shorter it causes more damage and is a kill every time.'' DAM explained.

Edge: Saurian

For mid-range weapons the glaive's larger blade cut down the battle axe.

''It causes death every time it enters the body and requires less energy.'' Zivon explained.

Edge: Lizardfolk

For long range weapons the vile acid spit melted the short bow away.

''It may have a bit shorter range but the damage speaks for itself. It can melt the bow away and the Lizardfolk after.'' Demigod explained.

Edge: Saurian

For special weapons the damage of the claws and combination attack of the barbed dart and tail were determined equal.

''One is a kill every time it hits you and the other is a combination attack that can keep you at a distance.'' Rice Man explained.

Edge: Even

And finally, for armor the Lizardfolk's extra protection of the turtle shield won the day.

''Both have skin and scales that are hardened but the shield gives the Lizardfolk the edge.'' Metal explained.

Edge: Lizardfolk

Now our resident metalhead and computer wizz Metal Harbinger takes the stage.

''Time for these x-factors boys so sit back and relax.'' said the metalhead.

''First and foremost we have training and I rated this with the Saurian winning with an 89 to the Lizardfolk's 85. The Saurians were trained as assassins while the Lizardfolks were disorganized in combat.''

''For strategy this went to the Saurian again with an 85 to the Lizardfolk's 75. Like I mentioned before the Saurians were very calculating in their attack methods compared to the unorganized Lizardfolk who charged head on without thought.''

''For killer instinct the Lizardfolk took it since they were fighting to survive in a harsher environment and defend it againt all invaders. So the Lizardfolk got a 91 to the Saurian's 90.''

''For brutality the Saurian wins with how they ended up killing all their enemies. You could be shredded apart with the claws or burnt to shit with the acid spit which are both wild ways to go so an 88 to an 86 respectively.

''Last but not least we have physicality and this time the Lizardfolk wins it. They were amazing swimmers and were much larger and physically stronger than the Saurian. 90 to an 89.''

The team has finished the necessary weapons testing and x-factor evaluation, they will now run the simulator one-thousand times to determine who is our deadliest warrior!

Who will win between two lethal reptilian creatures?

''Everything is plugged into the sim so let's run it.'' Metal said hitting the button.

It is dawn in a quiet fresh water swamp forest where Lizardfolks is seen swimming through the waters in search of his next meal. He comes armed to the teeth and with him he brought his trusty longsword, glaive, a short bow and his shield for a long hunting trip. Recently his tribe had eaten up their stock of meat and he had decided to head out and help get his tribes some good eating.

In another area where the forest meets the swamp a lone Saurian was seen perched with all his weapons strapped to his...person up in a branch scouting the area for any threats before he can rest before going on a hunt of his own.

Feeling he is in the clear for now he sits on the branch and lays back against the tree for a quick nap but unbeknownst to him he had a visitor in the water below.

The Lizardfolk eyes the Saurian and at first thought it was another of his kind until he saw the built of the Saurian and the green ninja outfit he was wearing. Sensing the Saurian was an invader he draws his longsword and shield and prepares to surface.

The Saurian opens his eyes and sensing something was off he hears gurgling from below and looks down at the water to see it bubbling and just a second later the Lizardfolk comes leaping out of the water toward him prompting the Saurian to leap from the tree bracn onto the ground below. The Lizardfolk was too late to strike but swung his sword on instinct only to hit the tree and he lands in front of the Saurian who draws his kirehashi in defense. Getting on his feet both reptilians eyed each other and raised their blades defensively in front of them and inched closer to each other.

The Lizardfolk and Saurian hiss at one another as they circled one another and wanting to take the chance to attack and possibly land a hit first the Saurian goes in for a swing with his kirehashi only for the Lizardfolk to intercept the blow with his turtle shield and using the leverage to try and swat the kirehashi away but the Saurian's grip held true and with his blade still in hand the Saurian swings again and manages to land a hit on the Lizardfolk's side.

Roaring at the sensation the Lizardfolk angrily swings his shield at the Saurian striking the shorter reptilian in the face sending him falling to the grass while losing his kirehashi in the process.

Filled with bravado the Lizardfolk rushes forward and tries to impale the smaller reptilian only for the Saurian to just barely reach for his batte axe and uses the shaft to block the longsword from hitting him right in the face.

The two reptiles would find themselves locked in a test of strength and eventually the Saurian kicks the Lizardfolk in his...shin? The blow causes the Lizardfolk to fall on one knee in discomfort and using this opportunity the Saurian grabs the longsword and hurls the weapon into the swamp before running to create some distance between them. Seeing his foe attempting to escape the Lizardfolk quickly draws his short bow and strings an arrow.

Taking aim at the Saurian he fires off the arrow and manages to hit the Saurian in the leg making the smaller reptile hiss in pain. The Lizardfolk follows up with his barbed dart and hurls it at the downed Saurian only for the latter to roll out of the way and tosses a rock at the larger lizard who blocks the blow with his shield. Fighting through the pain the Saurian gets up and runs off into the trees with the Lizardfolk in tow.

After a few seconds of chasing the Saurian the Lizardfolk makes his way into a clearing with his glaive in hand and looks all around for his enemy but sees nothing. Unbeknownst to him there was movement among the tall grass nearby and it was revealed to be the Saurian in his camouflage ability sneaking up with his axe in hand and just as he gets a few feet within striking distance he was careless and steps on a branch. On instinct the Lizardfolk turns around and seeing the axe appear to be floating he then thrusts his glaive and pierces the Saurian in his side making the smaller reptile hiss loudly in pain once again.

With his opponent right where he wanted him he pulls the blade out to thrust again only for the Saurian to fight through the pain again and with his claws he sidesteps the glaive's thrusting motion and swipes at the Lizardfolk's chest with his claws.

The sensation causes the Lizardfolk to roar in pain and before he could do anything the Saurian follows up by raking his claws on one of the Lizardfolk's arms scratching and shredding the flesh causing unimaginable amounts of pain for his larger foe. The Lizardfolk drops the glaive due to the enormous pain and backhands the Saurian away and turns around and swings his tail.

The appendage strikes the Saurian right in the temple with enough force to send the smaller reptile flying and crashing into a nearby tree shaking the plant to its roots. With the wind knocked out of him the Saurian looks up to see the Lizardfolk with his glaive in his good arm going for a downward thrust but he manages to roll out of the way to avoid being skewered in the gut. He takes another swipe with his claws and shreds flesh on the Lizardfolk's leg sending a fresh wave of pain through the bigger lizard's body.

Despite the seething pain the Lizardfolk thrusts his glaive outward and slices into the Saurian's other side but the Saurian toughs out the pain and swings as hard as he could at the Lizardfolk's face slicing deep into his face while clawing out one of his eyes.

The larger lizard man lets out a thunderous roar of pain and anger and uses the turtle shield to shove the Saurian away making him stagger back and with this opportunity the bigger lizard shoves the glaive's blade at the Saurian who just barely manages to block the blow with his claws. The glaive's massive blade slices both his hands open sending some of his blood on the grass angering the Saurian.

Even though his hands were in great pain the Saurian mustered enough energy to swing one of his claws at the shaft of the glaive and breaks the weapon in half and swings again at the Lizardfolk's chest leaving shearing injuries.

With the Lizardfolk reeling from his chest injury the Saurian activate his camouflage ability and sneaks away again. The Lizardfolk did not notice this as he was in just too much pain from all his injuries combined, especially the pain of losing his eye and he failed to notice the outline of the Saurian coming up to him.

Before he could notice the Saurian grabs the Lizardfolk's jaws and pries them open and reveals himself to his opponent. Taking in a deep breath he hurls a stream of acid into the Lizardfolk's mouth sending the corrosive material into the body.

The Lizardfolk could only roar in tremendous pain for a few seconds before the acid eats through his entire chest cavity and his entire mid-section gets hollowed out and melted away leaving his spine visible and several melted organs hanging out.

The lifeless Lizardfolk then falls backward never to rise again.

FATALITY

With the larger reptile dead the Saurian raises his claws into the air in victory.

Following a very close battle between two reptilian humanoids it would be the Saurian who would survive, but just barely. He won 50.9% compared to the Lizardfolk's 49.1%. It was thanks to his more damaging kirehashi and his vile acid spit that won the day. The Lizardfolk kept it very close with his glaive and special weapons combination.

''While the Lizardfolk was bigger and possibly meaner he did not fight strategically and relied on charging and swinging his blades widly whereas the Saurian would plan his attacks out.'' DAM commented.

''These two were basically neck and neck the entire way through but those little quirks such as a more damaging blade and the ability to camouflage tipped the battle in the Saurian's favor.'' Zivon seconded.

''Another very close match and seeing those small advantages the Saurian had I had a feeling he would take it, just barely though.'' Demigod said.

''These two gave it their all and were very similar in many ways but the Saurian managed to melt the Lizardfolk into a puddle of mush. Zaterra's secretive killers reign over Toril's swamp dwelling Lizards.'' Rice Man concluded.

''This is madness! In real life we would behead and devour the Saurian!'' Griss'tok roared in disbelief.

''These Lizardfolk should stick to being brutes and fight their little unorganized skirmishes. We proved today that we are the deadliest warrior!'' Reptile declared proudly.

(The Saurian was seen camouflaged in the bushes watching several more Lizardfolk arrive to see their fallen comrade. With that the Saurian then sneaks away with the Lizardfolk's turtle shield strapped to his back and the glaive in his possession, a trophy of his latest victory.)
