BBOCT R1 - Ian Vs. Loar
It felt like just as soon as Ian had dozed off, he was awake again. Stifling a yawn, he absentmindedly brought his paw up to his face - and met foliage.
Opening his eyes, the doctor was met with a green blur, which slowly focused into a large leaf. Brushing it off his face, he pulled himself into a seated position, before gawping at his surroundings.
"This must be the arena Amina was talking about..." he muttered to himself. The wind rustled through the trees that were scattered around the large enclosure, and the sun was pleasantly warm on his fur. Ian slowly stood up, still staring around himself. This place was so different to the dank c

BBOCT R1 - Intermission
Sheets. Crisp, cool sheets. The murmur of voices drifting across from a distance...
The voices were getting louder. Some sort of argument...? And then-
"Shaddup and sit down, ya mangy four-legged! 'S bad enough we hav'ta guard you while yer in 'ere without yer shootin' yer mouth off every coupl'a seconds!"
Wait... guard? Four-legged? What did that-
The camp. The cages suddenly arriving, spiriting away anyone to stupid or weak to run away. The image of the hated King Alaur, telling them they were in a tournament, fighting for their lives to 'earn their place' in a society that was told to loathe them...
Ian finally opened his eyes, and gl

The notice was small and indescript - so much so, that it was almost lost in the sea of other pieces of paper pinned over the top and to the sides. Maybe that had been what had drawn Wraith's eye to it. However, after a cursory glance at the crabbed handwriting, he had immediately lost interest.
Turning away, Wraith surveyed the street. It was fairly busy - stalls selling everything from baskets to live poultry to furniture lined the opposite side. The street wasn't particularly wide, so any more than a dozen people in one area of it made movement difficult. At the minute, he estimated that there must have been more than 50 people, all milli
It was strangely quiet. The absense of noise seemed to almost take on a solid form, which clamped down on all sound like a vice. The dampened sussurations which did manage to pierce the silence could have almost been imagined in the damp, chilled air.
It was a watchful silence, a silence which was not exactly nervous, but which did have a certain edge of resentment to it. Well, perhaps resentment was the wrong word. A more suitable replacement would be along the lines of... well-surpressed murderous intent.
A single, dank beam of light shone down through a hole in the door, and barely managed to illuminate the cold, rough stone floor of the

"There's nothing else I can do. She needs food to give her enough strength to pull through, but these bastards won't even toss us a dry bone!"
"It's okay, Ian. You've done more than enough already. At least... at least she isn't in pain anymore..."
The grieving mother's voice trailed off as she dissolved into tears, huddling into her husband's chest as her grief finally got the better of her. Ian was left stood there, watching helplessly as the husband tried to comfort the distressed animal, but he could see the grief in his eyes. All around him, there was nothing but grief, hunger, and death.
Turning away, he stooped low to get through th
