Xenon descended the floors until he reached the last level, he walked forwards into the arena, passing by different slightly raised platforms which served as individual stages for each pair of contestants until he reached the one with a 17 carved upon it. He ascended unto the stage by climbing a set of small, short stairs –each stage was raised about a metre off the ground.
Approaching from the opposite side was a boy with brown hair, black eyes and a muscle toned body. He was donning a brown singlet and trousers, a smile plastered upon his face. He climbed unto the stage and stared intensely at Xenon, surveying every inch of his body.
Xenon gazed at the dust covered stage, then at his arms and remembered something.
