The Woo Woo players, on the other hand, had more experience and were easily able to use this to their advantage and catch up. Dan had two options, to continue moving forward and help out Novis, or to stick with Scarlett.

In the end, although this was a game, he just couldn't commit himself to leave Scarlett behind.

"Come on Scarlett, we can do this," Dan said as he held out his hand.

Scarlett took Dan's hand and Dan started to drag her through the forest. Dan had decided that it was best for them to head deeper into their half of the map where their towers would be. Rather than head for the mid-tower that was closest to Novis.

This route was technically shorter as they would be in the range of there towers quicker. But as soon as the two of them started to run down, out came flying an arrow, landing right in front of Dan's foot. As he looked up, he noticed it was Woo Woo's archer.

Then, another arrow slightly faster than the last came from a different direction. Dan had managed to lift his gauntlets in time deflecting the arrow. But when he put his hand down, he could see the Woo Woo players had already caught up to him.

They were stuck. Even if they did run, both the ranged players would be able to constantly attack them while their back was turned. Dan decided there was no choice for them but to fight back.

Dan headed straight for the single archer player. If he was going to die then he would at least take down one of them with him. The archer could see Dan coming towards him it was an unexpected move, a suicide attack the archer thought.

The archer readied his bow but he was too slow. Dan threw his fist out as hard as he could. However, the sound of metal was heard when he threw out his fist. When Dan looked in front of him, all he could see was a s.h.i.+eld.

The Woo Woo players had regrouped sending two players two back up their archer, while the other two came from the other direction.

The s.h.i.+eld man then smiled and ducked down, what followed was a large hammer that whacked Dan into the air, and landing against a tree.

Dan struggled to get up but he slowly managed to but before he could even take a step, an arrow came shooting out hitting his leg. Dan then staggered back down to the floor.

"It's over for your team." The Krang player said. At the same time, Scarlett screams could be heard.

She had been injured buy the duel scimitar player, her bow and arrow had been taken and she was now being led over to Dan while the players held back both of her hands.

"What are you doing?" Dan groaned, "Just get rid of us."

"Don't worry I will." The Krang player then walked up to Scarlett. He lifted his hammer back charging up his skill then slammed it down on her, bursting her into blue particles.

Dan couldn't help but close his eyes as he saw Scarlett's frightened face as the hammer had gone down on her.

The Krang player then slowly walked back over to where Dan was.

"I want to thank your team for making me look so good. If it wasn't for you guys then I would have never had an opportunity like this."

The Krang player then swung his hammer once again and as soon as it hit Dan, Dan too had burst into blue particles.

"What should we do now?" the archer asked. "Should we take the tower and win the game."

"No!" the Krang player replied, "I'm going for the Penta kill."

This game was being broadcasted online where some universities and Pro teams were looking for the next big players. Getting a Penta kill was something unheard of in this stage of the game, as teams who had made it this far were of usual equal level.

If the Woo Woo player managed to get a Penta kill, it would increase his fame and chances of getting scouted. This was a chance he wouldn't let go.

The outside arena was complete opposites. While the Woo Woo supporters were cheering from the top of their lungs. The Montem team had already accepted defeat. A lot of the students who had come to support Montem had already decided to pack up their things and leave the arena.

They felt like it was impossible for their team to win and staying only made them feel more disheartened. Leaving early would also allow them to beat the rush once the game had finished.

In the end, only a few of the Montem team supporters remained and the players family members.

Even Josh was felling down. He was hoping that the Montem team would be able to win. Even though he knew it was unlikely, he thought they might be able to pull something off like they had in their last games.

He had even prepared to revel big news to the world once the Montem team had won causing a stir. But his information was useless now.

"looks like Josh underdog is still in the game."

"I guess Josh really has lost his skill, he actually convinced me that this was going to be a close game."

"How long do you think he will last ten seconds."

"The Montem team didn't even take out one person."

The online community was full of criticism for Tick, claiming that they had hyped up the game for the sake of views.

"I guess I was wrong," Josh said with his head held down.

But Cindy was busy looking on the Monitor, the big screen above which was focused on Novis.

"I'm not too sure, It doesn't look like he's given up yet to me," Cindy said.

Novis was standing by his tower breathing in slowly.

"Are you ready for this Novis?" Arthur asked.

"Yeah!" Noivs replied.

"Good, it is the time of war, on the battlefield, there were many times where we were outnumbered but your life is now on the line, it's you or them."

"Yeah!" Novis shouted louder.

"They killed all your friends, even Scarlett who you had known your whole life and now it's time to make them pay."

"Isn't that a bit too much," George whispered to Arthur.

"No, Novis needs to feel like everything that happened was real. It's the only way he can draw that anger out of him. Facing against five opponents is tough. Especially five skilled opponents like these. He's going to need to draw out every little bit of power he has."

Suddenly, the expression on Novis face had changed. He was no longer the naive boy he once was when he had started the game. He was now a real warrior on the battlefield.
