Noir turns into a solid black panel, against which melodies bumps. It contorts like a trampoline, bouncing melodies two metres backwards.
Now, do you want to settle this peaceably, or do we have to take this to the ARENA?

Round 3 - Series 2: Audiobabe (Sasjhwa 1/0) vs. Black Sparrow (0/1)
Audiobabe, our magical lady of sound, takes on Black Sparrow, our physical mistress of the whip, in a battle that might be x-rated in some countries.
1 - Black Sparrow cracks a whip, and gets it around Audiobabe's throat. She yanks, hard. (10 damage)
2 - Sparrow keeps tension on the whip and walks up to Audiobabe. She kisses her deeply, while tightening the whip's grip on Audiobabe's throat. (9 damage). The crowd goes silent, and then explodes into rowdy cheers!
3 - Audiobabe, struggling to breathe and to get away from Black Sparrow, concentrates on snapping her fingers. The sound, amplified, slams into Sparrow, shoving her away and breaking her grip on the whip around Audiobabe's throat. (11 damage). Audiobabe gasps for breath and untangles the whip from around her throat.
4 - Black Sparrow stands. "You're a hell of a kisser..." she says, cracking her whip behind her. Audiobabe tosses aside the whip Sparrow had recently used on her. "You're not." She responds. Sparrow narrows her eyes and growls.
5 - Black Sparrow leaps at Audiobabe, cracking her whip in mid-air and catching Audiobabe in the eye! (9 damage) Audiobabe screams in pain, and the amplified scream catches Sparrow before she can hit the ground, shoving her across the arena. She lands in the sand with a *plop*. (11 damage)
Winner: Audiobabe. Audiobabe glows, heals, and gains a stat point.
Loser: Black Sparrow. Black Sparrow shakes off the damage, stands, and retrieves her whip. She waves to the audience and blows kisses. Several fans fall into the arena and are whisked off by Ogre security while she leaves the field.
Crossfire: "Thank you! That explains it very nicely, and in a language that someone other than a physicist can understand..."

Round 3 - Series 3: Bean (834n - 2/0) vs. Black Sparrow (0/2)
Bean, our undefeated physical martial artist, is battling Black Sparrow our physical mistress of the whips, in a battle to determine if Bean will enter the Semi-finals with an extra stat point or not. Both use the same attack and so are exceptionally good at defending against each other. Get ready for a fight!
1 - Sparrow cracks her whips and Bean puts his staff in front of them! The whips tangle against his staff, and he twirls the staff to entertwine them. That yanks both whips out of Sparrow's hands! Bean calmly untangles the whips and throws them back to Sparrow.
2 - Bean launches his first attack, a deadly kick to the stomach! Sparrow deftly avoids the attack, sliding to the right and out of the way.
3 - Sparrow cracks her whips again, this time hitting Bean in the left leg, shredding his clothing and leaving a bloody mark! (5 damage). She pulls her whips back and licks the blood, while winking at Bean.
4 - Bean feigns an attack at Sparrow, and when she dodges again, he smacks his staff on her foot! (8 damage).
5 - Bean moves to swing his staff up to hit Sparrow in the chin, but she ducks him and cracks her whip around his arm. She yanks hard and his staff goes flying, to land at her feet. Sparrow calmly picks up the staff and tosses it back to Bean.
6 - Black Sparrow cracks her whips again and cuts Bean in his back when he reaches for his staff! (4 damage). This is met with assorted boos and cheers from the audience.
7 - Bean throws his staff to Sparrow, who catches it in surprise. He then kicks the staff, hard, so it rebounds in her face and then back to his hand! (11 damage). Sparrow seems stunned.
8 - Bean kicks Sparrow in the chest, and she falls backwards to the sand and doesn't get up.
Winner: Bean! Bean glows, heals, gains a stat point, and will be in our semi-finals.
Loser: Black Sparrow. Sparrow sits up and shakes her head to clear it. She waves off an ogre musician that had come out to help her up. The musician produces a ticket to the Gold Member Box Seat area, where free food and beverages of all kind await in air conditioned luxury.
