Chapter 22 - Chapter 21: I hate everything about you

Both Victoria and Savr stand on opposing sides from each other with swords drawn. Jeffers stands in shock as to what he is seeing. The entire crowd is silent just waiting for the two of them to fight. Titus has a huge smile on his face and he says in a gravely evil voice.

"Let the angry consume them both."

Both Victoria and Savr stare each other down until Savr lunges at Victoria out of nowhere. He tackles her to the ground. And puts his hands around her throat and begins to strangle her. Victoria takes a page out of Heidi's book and uses her hands which are free to punch Savr in the throat. 

The audience begins cheering in a loud uproar.

Savr got off of Victoria and crawls to his sword, gagging and coughing. He clears his throat a little more and says 

"Enough of you, you petulant child." as he grabs his sword and stands up.

"I took fencing classes, Savr. I know my way around a sword." Victoria says

Savr again rushes Victoria and she falls to the ground to trip him. Like she planned Savr trips and falls on his face.

The crowd begins to cheer even louder.

Savr got up angry over the damage done to his pride. Savr takes a stab at Victoria but she dodges it and he takes another stab but she dodges it. She then kicks Savr in his private parts. 

The crowd goes insane after that as they're cheering and even Horman who hates Victoria is cheering for her to win. Caught up in the excitement.

I can't believe I'm faring so well against Savr. Victoria thinks to herself.

Savr at this point is furious as he waits for the pain to subside Victoria is taking in the praise from the crowd. She's waving as people in the audience throw her roses. 

"Thank you, you're too kind." She says

Savr then surprisingly begins to cry, to which Victoria notices. 

Why is he crying? In front of all these people this is embarrassing. Better help him.  She thinks to herself.

The crowd stops cheering and all is silent as the awkwardness of the situation begins to sink in.

Victoria walks forwards to try and comfort Savr. 

"Come on Savr, don't cry" Victoria says But to her surprise Savr grabs a handful of dirt and throws it in her face.

"Ah! My eyes." she says as she stumbles to the ground rubbing her eyes. 

Savr walks up to her sword in hand and says

"Shame, you were really pretty." 

The crowd begins booing Savr in retort of his actions

"Ah shut up!" He shouts as he attempts to plunge his sword into Victoria who is on the ground. She once again dodges it and gets up and punches Savr in the face as hard as she can busting his nose.

Savr and Victoria just stand there for a while as they are both in shock. But they are in shock for different reasons. Victoria is shocked that Savr is still standing while Savr is shocked at how weak Victoria's punches are.

"Is that all you got." He says as blood trickles down from his nose.

Victoria at this point has had enough decides to hit him with a roundhouse kick. Knocking him out cold.

The crowd begins cheering and throwing even more roses. Victoria hucks a loogy on Savr's unconscious body. The crowd begins to chant 

"Victoria! Victoria!" 

The feeling of ecstasy fell onto her as the crowd cheered her.

"Thank you." She says with tears in her eyes.

Some guards come down to pick up Savr and carry him away.

Jeffers walks up to Victoria who is basking in the crowd's attention.

"It's time Vic." He says

"Just a minute or two more." She says

After the event in the arena both Victoria and Jeffers are in the throne room with Titus sitting on the throne.

"We're telling you we need D'vron's heart. And since his heart is no longer in the catacombs we must act now." Jeffers says

"Why should I care? I am just as evil as D'vron." Titus exclaims

"Yeah, but you don't have my First Mate." Jeffers says

"Or the power to threaten the Creative World." Victoria adds

"Why should I care?" Titus asks

"Because if you don't this D'vron will destroy us all. And only my crewmate Victoria can stop him." Jeffers says

"Victoria the woman who bested my son in battle. While I cannot trust the space guy, I guess her word is good. I sense she is trustworthy." Titus says

Victoria walks forth and testifies in Jeffers favor

"I am the one they say has been chosen to defeat D'vron. It is my destiny." She says

"Well then what do you need from me?" Titus asks

"Your army this should be over fast if we have a fighting force." Jeffers says

"Alrighty then I'll send my son Savr, and three legions with you." Titus says

Victoria's heart sinks knowing she will have to be with Savr again.

"Is there anyone else?" 

"It's Savr or nothing".

"Fine" 

"And bring siege equipment, this will be over quickly."

Horman who has been listening in this whole time teleports back to D'vron on Mt. Heill.

"Ah, you've returned." D'vron says

"Everything is going according to plan. The chosen one is on her way with the Sauldarians." Horman says

"Excellent, did you bring me the heart?" D'vron asks

"Right here sir" Horman says as he presents D'vron the heart.

"Excellent." he says

D'vron turns towards Heidi and says

"Soon, you will see everyone you love again. Right before they die." He says
