[The Gate Master]

The two contestants don't even acknowledge each other as they step through the third gate, walking one after the other. They arrive in a bright room where the torches on the walls are barely needed. The are in the White Realm.

They both walk straight to the holes and speak their weapon of choice, which is the last of their five. They step back to their positions with scowls on their faces. The familiar lightning bolts strike them both and as they fade they both hold their weapons.

Bwind22 is holding the Longsword. He holds it in both hands and smiles as he looks across at Scouse Mac who is brandishing, like Bwind22 did last round, the Halberd. Neither of them even jump when the voice booms down on them.

"FIGHT!"

Both of them run at each other, letting out war cries as they do, the ferocity they had been keeping down for fear of losing their concentration set free. They both swing their weapons. The long sword slashes across, cutting off millimeters of Scouse Mac's hair. The Halberd blade then comes in, but Bwind22 ducks and it soars over his head.

Bwind22 pulls the Longsword back, then drives it directly into Scouse Mac's heart. He yells out in pain and drops the Halberd. Bwind22 pulls back the sword just as it dissolves into sparks of white. He leans down to Scouse Mac's body and wipes his hand across the wound. He smiles as he wipes the blood over his forehead and licks his fingers.

As the wound in Scouse Mac heals, Bwind22 quickly reaches for the Halberd, but as he touches it, a flash of white sends him one hundred feet into the air, straight to the ceiling. He grabs onto an ornate carving of a demon's face set into the ceiling by one his fingers and dangles there, barely holding himself up. Scouse Mac gets to his feet and looks around him. He looks up at the sound of Bwind22's struggles and smiles. He picks up the Halberd and holds it at the ready.

His fingers weaken and Bwind22 falls from the ceiling, flailing around as he does. Just as he nears the stone floor, Scouse Mac swings the Halberd up vertically and it cuts Bwind22's torso and head in half from groin to head. The two pieces slam down to the floor in a bloody mess of bones and guts. They glow white and all fit back together. Bwind22 winces in pain as he moves and Scouse Mac winks at him.

"NEXT GATE, SCOUSE MAC!"
