Suddenly my brother raised his sword high above his head. I turned my head and closed my eyes. Is this the end of me? I thought. I heard the sound of the sword hitting the ground though i felt no pain. I opened my eyes to see my binds broken. I thought I was being set free but then Marcus gave his big mace-weilding assistant the katana. He then took his mace. Then he tossed me a katana as I stood. "There. Duel now. You win, we set you free. We win, we decide what to do with you." Marcus said with a glint in his eyes. I looked at my openent seeing if he had any visible weaknesses. While I was doing that, he suddenly lunged at me. In shock I dodged to the left and swong at his torso but my blade was met by his. By this point all the grunts were cheering. We pushed on each others blades until finnaly he kicked me back onto the ground and put his blade on my neck. He grinned but then I kicked him back. I jumped up, grabbed a kunai from my pouch, and flung it. It hit him in the chest and blood poured out. Then suddenly I felt a pain in my side. I turned my head to see that one of the henchmen had shot me with a crossbow. I looked down to see I was losing blood fast. I fell to the ground in pain. Then it all went black.
