Spring Tournament 2009, Round Two - Between a Rock and a Hard Place [Wisp Quill vs Shadow Samus vs erinys]

As the battle progresses, just remember that each fight will go on for about 25-30 posts, the character that you chose last round must be used again, and that Councilors characters (for example, in this thread, Derrick) will act as a referee for this thread and maintain balance. Try to keep posts at around 500 words max, and avoid controlling your opponent's character. With all that said, have at it and have fun!

Deep beneath the earth where the sane dare not tread, underneath a mile of earth that is where lay the golden goblet in a small dank room lit by a few torches that never seemed to run dry. To reach this sacred chamber one must first go through the temple before it, and endless myriad of corridors and stairs that seem to stretch for miles in every direction like an untamed spider's web.

Within the sandy is where the labyrinth, though tricky all on it's own, really showed it's true colour. Traps of all kind littered the endless hallways, from spikes flying out of holes in the walls, or parts of the floor where stepping on it causes it to collapse into an endless void. Here in this great catacomb of dangers and trials beyond any imagination was where Derrick has chosen.

Walking slowly past sculptures and carvings derrick barely noticed them, his eye's fixated on the area right before him. For some reason beyond his own reasoning he was chosen to be a referee of a great tournament. Unlike the others chosen however he decided to throw away the idea of a regular battle, for his battle he chose a true challenge.

The Perfect assassin already informed each of the three individuals parking in person of the task. Take the goblet from the heart of the labyrinth and take it to the surface without dying. To each he granted a simple map that ignored all but the largest passageways, a compass, and showed them to their particular entrance. The three would being from their stated starting points at the crack of noon, no sooner nor later. They would be pitted against the maze, the traps, each other, and even Derrick himself.

What Derrick did not tell them however was that he had an advanced map in a hand held device, as well as implanting tracking bugs in each of their compasses so he would always know their location. Derrick looked at his watch...11:56. Taking a hand gun in one hand, and his map in the other, derrick waited perfectly still for the carnage to begin.


oOc: Think Indian Jones, basically get the goblet and try to escape while fighting people. Feel free to add Derrick in any posts if you wish and have fun.
