Battle vs. Arkantos (by The Deadliest Warrior)
Marcus Decimus Gallus, a Roman foot soldier, and a Roman archer are exploring mysterious beach after their ship has crashed on the nearby reefs. Suddenly a strange man and two of his soldiers block their way.

“Step aside, man,” Gallus says impatiently. “I have no time for you.”

The man is Arkantos, and he merely nods to one of his soldiers, who fires his toxotes bow and catches one of the Romans in the neck, who chokes and crumples to the ground, dropping his bow.

The Roman footman takes out his javelin and throws it at Arkantos, but it bounces off of his armor. The Romans retreat and Arkantos and his men give chase.

As the Atlanteans turn the corner, they find no opponents, but instead the bowman falls with a javelin straight through his body. The Atlantean axeman throws his axe into the bushes and a gurgling scream is heard. The axe found is mark.

Marcus Decimus Gallus himself steps out of the bushes, and quickly kills the axeman when he approaches. Arkantos readies his Atlantean spear and charges in battle frenzy while Gallus prepares to counter-strike.

Arkantos stabs Gallus in the thigh, and Gallus angrily pulls the spear out of his leg and slashes wildly with his dagger, keeping Arkantos at bay. Bobbing and weaving, Arkantos desperately thinks of a way to retrieve his spear. Finally, the Atlantean Admiral dives to the ground, grabs his spear, and thrusts upward before the Roman commander can react. Gallus sways, stunned, and spits blood before Arkantos silently pulls the spear out and watches his adversary fall. Arkantos shouts a blessing in Poseidon’s name and walks along the beach, back towards Atlantis.

Winner: Arkantos
