Chapter 2

Chapter 2: This chapter is a continuation of the letter Bobby was writing in Chapter 1. As the warriors got ready to battle, another fanfare sounds and a Zhou beast bursts through the door. A Zhou beast is like a giant panther-like cat. But this one is taller than a human by 2-3 ft. when it stands up straight on it's two hind legs.It has two heads and razorlike teeth. It had wounds and Bobby thought it was because people were trying to get this thing PO'd. Well it was. Loor's team was the first to attack. One of her teammates lassoed one of the beast's heads and started to pull. But, with the beast at a disadvantage, the other team attacked it. One of them jumped on the beast and landed on it's back. All of a sudden the beast did something...well... disgusting. It turned its free head around in a way that seemed impossible and seized the warrior by the legs. The beast was wagging his head back and forth, also taking the warrior along for the ride. As you should have realized by now, the announcer wasn't talking about the two teams severing each other's heads .They were supposed to severe and capture both of the "beast's" heads. So with one warrior on the other side down, Loor decides to show sportsmanship and leads the beast away so that the other team can save their teammate. But they didn't. I thought that was strange. But oh well. So then, the Zhou beast did something cool. It jumped into the air and got some serious vertical. Then, it yanked its head back and pulled Loor's teammate, holding the rope, off his feet. Unlucky for him his hand was tangled in the rope. Loor decided she needed to jump in and help. So she swung at the beast, connecting to its side. It got mad and swiped at her knocking her sword away. Loor was in trouble. The beast swung again and this time it hit her shoulder. She then rolled away and ran. Ran towards the injured warrior lying on the ground. She took his sword and swung at it. But it dodged. Then her teammate lassoed it again. But, out of nowhere, a warrior from the other team came at her and tackled her to the ground. He took the sword away and ran back to his teammates. I think he thought that it belonged to his team so he took it back. Then the Zhou turned and looked at Loor. He started to snarl. I guess he was PO'd because she hit him. Then he lunged. She dodged and ran. She ran and climbed the statue in the middle of the arena that was sculpted to look like a Zhou. Then she got cornered. But out of nowhere her assistant Saangi came and picked up Loor's sword that she lost and threw it to her. Loor caught it and swung at the Zhou's head. Then the Zhou got real mad and roared. She called to her teammates to throw her another rope. She then lassoed the other head and jumped off the statue. She handed the rope to her other teammate and moved in for the kill. But she was too late. The other team took an advantage of the situation cut off the two heads and won the match. This was very disappointing especially because of the fact that Loor did most of the work. This chapter made me feel more excited because I knew that this book was gonna be wonderful and action-packed.
