119. Veera vs Emerald pt 1
Meanwhile back at Apsara Island.
Like a scene from the gladiator movie.
Veera was thrown in the sun blazing Arena, now dressed up in a gladiator gear.
The stadium horn sounded three times by one of Orlov’s minion
“Please welcome to the Arena your ruler Orlov!” and in floated Orlov waving at the crowds.
“Orlov!”
“Orlov!”
“Orlov!”
(Oh please!)
The crowds cheered throwing roses at him and he caught it making the roses fly around him in a extravagant manner, then burning it with his fire powers. He was the only Apsara on the island that had could control the element of air and fire.
Veera rolled her eyes as he went and did the Mexican wave, hyping the crowds more with his minion. The crowds adored him and it was quite clear that Orlov loved being the centre of attention.
Then she saw two air Apsaras floating by, watching the crowds discreetly. He had his bodyguards just in case a member of the audience decided to come at Orlov.
“Master Orlov!”
“We love you!!”
Two love sick fan girls used their floating powers to get to him, but his bodyguards were quick and reprimanded them making them crash back into their seats. To keep his reputation as a good leader that cared, he threw back a rose at his frightened yet annoyed fan girls. They started fighting over the rose and Orlov chuckled waving back at the rest of the crowds, like an obvious celebrity.
The Apsara leader, looked down at Veera who seemed quite annoyed at him. It was understandable, after all he took her friend and had her cute little aunt all to himself up in that booth.
His Minion Guz threw him the mic.
“Apsaras, we have all gathered here today to welcome back a lost sheep!”
The crowds were all dressed in red robes, and cheered at Orlov as he spoke.
Veera could see Aunt Rita was now dressed in red robe and sat with her hands tied
next to Orlov’s side, as he returned back to his booth. He winked at Rita who in return gave him a cold look. Then his attention fell on Veera and the crowds booing at her.
“SILENCE ALL!” Orlov’s voice boomed in a terrific manner, calming the angry crowds down at once. He smiled over to the crowd that had his attention then grinned down at his biggest fan (note the sarcasm).
“Apsaras Veera here will now fight her dearest friend for her aunt’s freedom.”
A cage door opened up and out came Emerald, dressed in a gladiator outfit and looking very very calm, as of she was some kind of tame robot. Veera noticed her eyes were unnaturally glowing silver.
Veera looked back at Orlov angrily, who grinned deviously back down at her.
“If Veera wins, her aunt and her friend (if she survives) will get to go home.”
The crowds booed, and started throwing pieces of rotten apples and banana peels and at her.
Veera ignored the sounds of the crowds and concentrated back on Emerald who was not showing any kind of emotion.
“However if Veera looses…”
“Oooohhh…” The crowds loved a bit of suspense.
“If she looses, Veera along with her aunt will stay back on Apsara island. She will take her rightful place amongst us, and she will marry Valerio.” He announced ever so carefreely.
Veera was shocked to hear this and instantly spotted Valerio sitting next to his booth.
There was a round of applause from the crowds after hearing that. They both held eye contact for a while, until he grinned back at her. Valerio picked up a rose and floated it at her with his ice powers.
Veera on the other hand, grabbed her sword and sliced the rose to his sudden proposal, and gave him the m!ddle finger.
The crowds boo’d at her and Valerio sat down holding back his sigh.
“Well that went well.” Orlov chuckled and then nodded at Guz to start the match.
“Fighters! Are, you ready?!”
Don’t pick up that sword!
Don’t pick up that sword!
Emerald cracked a wicked grin and picked up a spear from the side instead, and threw it directly, with absolute precision.
Veera dodged the spear with a sharp gasp. She couldn’t believe her best friend just did that.
Guz fired the whistle and the fight commenced.
There were three spears in total on each player’s side. Emerald quickly took the second spear and aimed it again at Veera. Veera dodged again, but it was like she was getting closer and closer to striking her.
Emerald angrily groaned out missing her target, she was set to kill thanks to Orlov’s brain washing. She took the last spear and ran angrily towards her Veera.
The crowds cheered at Emerald who was full on attack mode. Orlov ate his grapes in delight, and offered one to Rita whose eyes were glued on to the Arena, worriedly like a sick mother. Valerio watched on quite entertained by Veera in the Arena.
