Stone went for a jab to the stomach and then a full blown fist to the face which made his opponent fall to the sand. Instantaneously, Stone bent down and grabbed ahold of him and raised his fist in the air.
Then he froze.
I watched the scene in shock. It all happened so fast. If you blinked then you would have missed it.
From what I had gathered from watching all of his old fights, Stone let the person he was fighting land a few blows before fully attacking.
The fight was different to any others as Stone had struck brutally hard and fast.
Reed and Brennan's expressions matched. Their mouths were agape as they took in the scene in front of him.
"I have never seen him go as fast and as hard as that before." Reed commented.
Brennan chuckled while looking down at me "Ella told him that she was going to kiss the winner."
"That will be why Stone looks so savage and homicidal." The tattooist joined in with the amusement.
As I watched Stone still with his face raised above the guy in the floor, I asked "Why is he not finishing him off and knocking him out?"
That is when I noticed the screaming crowd were preoccupied on their phones. All were too busy clicking as they waited patiently for the next part of the fight to happen.
"People pay to vote for Ultima Ictu. The final blow." Brennan explained "They will either pick thumbs up or thumbs down."
Hendrix entered the ring to announce "Thumbs up."
Vulcan stood up and took a step away from a bashed up Somnus who got up also from the floor.
"What does that mean?" I questioned frantically as I watched the two fighters near eachother again.
"They have to keep going until the crowd decide it is time for one of them to receive the final blow." Reed answered my question "They have to fight again."
Somnus moved first. He grabbed on to Stone's thick arm and tried to throw him on to the ground. Vulcan retaliated immediately by grabbing him by his ponytail and ramming his knee into his face.
Just as Somnus was about to react, Stone landed his fist on his face. It made contact in the centre of Somnus' face over and over again until he was on the ground once more.
Both of them stoped moving as the people in the audience's phones lit up again.
"I thought this was the final of the season?" I said in disbelief.
I was worried about Stone for nothing. The other guy who was not my Lurch was dying out there.
"Somnus is one of the best fighters out there." Reed erupted into laughter as he talked "I just think Stone has the right amount of motivation. You should come to every fight and threaten him with kisses, Ella."
While watching Stone stand over the other guy, I replied "What is Somnus the god of?"
