[QUOTE="Vertexx69, post: 5328095, member: 48854"] [COLOR=RoyalBlue][B]Round 5:[/B][/COLOR] Waves of energy emminate from the monk as he stands toe to toe with what will most likely be his final victim of this spectacle. His claw and tentacle tips glow white hot before they lance out one at a time, burying themselves in the main joints of the whimpering slave. The twitch as each deadly hit strikes its mark can be felt by every member of the crowd, metaphorically speaking. Some of the spectators actually look away as they feel the finally racing toward its inevitable conclusion. The kreen swivels his head to gaze out at the crowd, and in particular those that have seemed to lose their stomach for the prolonged execution. [B][COLOR=RoyalBlue]"Is this not why you have come?
