The Season at Rankar’s Deep—Week One
Добавлено: 04 апр 2011, 23:06Welcome to the Rankar’s Deep Report (RDR), your source for the matches of the week and events at the Deep.
After several years on hiatus, the Branson Brewery League began this week at the Deep. Twelve stables are competing this year, down from eighteen before the Word’s invasion. The League will run Class Two, Three, Four and Five matches.
The opening match in the Deep was a Class Two exhibition match between local legend Chaz Feelings and one of the Solaris Home Defense stalwarts, Danni Fremont. In a thrilling forty-minute match, Fremont gave Feelings all he could handle. The veteran and his Valkyrie used superior speed, jumping distance, and uncanny marksmanship to wear Fremont down until her Panther lost a leg, ending the match. Both warriors received a standing ovation from the sold-out crowd.
After that the first-round League matches began. The Class Five match between Isadore Kelly of Sun Runners Stable and Neil Oldenwhite from the new Star Rangers Stable was the first, and arguably the best, of the night’s matches. Both men had fought for the SHDL, and both had suffered: Oldenwhite had been a Word POW for months, while Kelly had been seriously wounded. Neither had fought a match in several years.
The first few minutes were both men getting used to arena combat again. After that they began trading shots and soon, both were moving around the Deep like old times. After fifteen minutes a slug from Kelly’s Victor shattered the Atlas’ leg. Oldenwhite landed face-down, and as he struggled to turn over, Kelly peppered him until the official stopped the match and awarded the win to Kelly.
That’s all this week. Stay tuned for next week’s Rankar’s Deep Report.
