The next day started with the sun blazing down in the arena. It's time for the final round of... the battle for the champions. The stages were set up differently this time around.

There was huge crowed filling up for this final conclusion, everyone wants to see the winner. It was more festive and the King Abu Jafar was expected to be here. Even Hakim Al Tawa will declare the winner himself and take him by his side.

Inside the hall room along with other champion fighters, Black Shadow was given a separate room which is not too big but big enough for his rest and preparation. All the fighters were taking preparation for this final round.

The Black Shadow felt dizzy in his head. He could not understand why he is feeling like this. Since her presence with the Princess has seem to change his health, he was found waking up in his room last night. He dozed off last night. He could hardly remember what happened after the love making was over. He has bruises all over his body. His body is has many cuts which was made by the Princess or been through a razor field.

The Black Shadow was sitting his room, still not fully back to being normal. So, he asked the attendant for some foods. The attendant brought bread, meat and fruits.

"I must be ready for this day, my body needs to recover completely."- Black Shadow said to himself as he began to prepare himself.

The attendant had given some wine. So, he took the wine bottle and poured it over the wounds to heal. There is someone close to the door, he can feel it.

"Should I come in my friend!"- A voice was raised from the back of the room.

"Yes, Bhule! My friend, please come in."- Black Shadow replied.

Bhule came over to meet him.

"My friend today is the day, it's time to settle all the debts. Yesterday you were my friend today you are going to be my foe, what a pity! It won't be pretty but I will defeat you fair and easy."- Bhule said smiling to Black Shadow.

Black Shadow contempt his face and replied, "Ok, that my friend, I am not thinking to win."

Bhule replied looked sharp and he raised his right hand to Black Shadow holding him tightly he said, "I really believe that, Friends are always friends. Once a friend is always a friend that's what counts the most."

Black Shadow holds his hand and smiled back to say- "That's true, I also believe that."

Bhule looking at the deep scratch marks and bites made by Princess on Black Shadow asked, "By the way take good care of your self. Are you feeling unwell?"

Black Shadow "Not really! Why?"

Bhule replied, "Is that your eyes looks as bloody hell, and your wound are strange looks like someone has cut you through blades. Anyway, one of the most important things that you must know. Everyone will be dead unless you're the winner!"

Black Shadow was surprised so he asked, "Everyone must be dead why?"

Bhule replied, "In the final round, all must die until one survives."

Black Shadow asks again, "So, what happens to the winner?"

Bhule replied, "That's one hell of a question. I really don't know, no one know what happens to the winner."

"The winner will be slaughter by Hakim Al Tawa and his soul will be collected by Hakim"- Amina came from behind and said to the Black Shadow.

"Wow, what a fine young women she is seeing, she looks like a goddess came from the heaven"- Bhule murmured to the ears of Black Shadow regarding Amina.

He had never admired women's beauty but he really had to admire this girl, One very beautiful girl indeed. She is even looking more prettier in the dressed of the dancers.

"Who are you my gorgeous lady?"- Bhule askes Amina, looking at the beautiful woman like her, it's hard for him to take eyes off.

"That's Amina, she is my..."- The Black Shadow hesitate to what to address her.

"I am his friend, and a well-wisher, don't worry. I have gathered knowledge about the champions. Hakim will only meet with his champion and kill him ruthlessly and take all his power and soul. Every year this fight provides a man who has the most strength and power. The winner is the one sacrifices his soul for Hakim and in return the Master of the winner will be rewarded and Hakim and his army will spare his family names from any disturbance."

"Why 777 then?"- Black Shadow askes Amina.

"It's associated with a curse, You know about the fight between Hakim and Anwar Zuad."- Amina replied.

Balck Sahdow stood up and said, "Yes, Hakim won and defeated him locked up him, yes I know that."

Amina continued as they say, "Hakim had a curse while fighting, given by Anwar Zuad, when he got defeated he used this curse that predicted only one champion with name of 777 will appear one day in front of Hakim and he will take the body and soul of Hakim. He will be called the soul hunter."

"That is why we never seen any winner of the battle filed. Specially if he has a tattoo marked as 777"- Amina added.

"How do you got to know this?"- Black Shadow asks Amina.

"Yes I got busy, and the Ibex army is marking you since your tattoo.'- Be careful specially with the food or drinks. They could be drug you to make you weak."

Black Shadow was filling dizzy. So, he thought to himself, "Did is the Princess that drugged him or the attendant?"

"Can your big friend will join with us, Can he be trusted?"- Amina pointed at Bhule.

"I believe we can"- Black Shadow nodded his head replying to Amina's question.

Amina whistles and the attendant came with Benjir.

"Benjir good to see you."- Black Shadow said to him.

Benjir gave a hug to the Black Shadow.

"My friend everyone outside is chanting for you to win this and I believe you are the one who can eliminate that monster."- Benjir said to Black Shadow.

Amina looked bit worried for a bit than whispered, "Look everything must be done within tonight, everyone must not hesitate, one small mistake can change everything, the plan will cause massive destruction... and we must stick to it, no matter what happens."

Bhule looked at everyone with his big eyes. His eyes were filled with emotions and He pledged at Black Shadow and said, "You my friend, you don't worry. I will give my life to you! There are nothing in this world is left for me. Once I never meet my parents, I grew up in a very hard life. I had done lots of bad things in my life. I never had anyone to take care of me. Everyone treated me like a monster. But, once I had a friend. He was a true friend indeed. He was always there to support me and treated me like his brother. But Hakim and his men killed him. So, don't worry I don't care for my life. I wont spare Hakim and his men at any cost."

Every one looking at each other.

"We are all together in this, We all are together. We will not hold anything back, It's time to bring hell on earth. Or restore the system, it's time to turn things in to the right on track."- Black Sahdow said with his voice had a firm tone.

Black Shadow looked at Amina and he was puzzled. Then asked to Amina, "What happened to your left hand?"

There was bruise on her body and she had a cut to her left hand which had been earlier covered, but the cut is big and looks like a very recent wound.

Black Shadow asked again, "Amina what happened? How did you get hurt, are you ok now!"

Black Shadow looked worried as he was looking for what had happened.
