A thunderous sound echoed across the arena. A moment of pain. A bright flash before his eyes. And the rest was no longer important.
He didn’t have enough strength to do something about it. Tomás’s body went limp and his mind transferred somewhere between the real world and the world of dreams. Perhaps that was good because, in such a state, it wasn’t the worst option to go out. He’s used to the quick, flash knockouts that would take whatever happened moments prior away from memory. It wasn’t good for the brain, mind you. However, compared to that spin cycle from Eliza’s Ballroom Roller, he’d take the knockout any day. The rolling, the crushing, being tossed around over and over, flopping about in a daze, the world whizzing about in a dazzling array of colors, and that was before getting to the crushing pressure...
The Portuguese man completely missed those few moments before the clap of the referee. Therefore, Blair claimed the spoils of victory before it became official, causing the Portuguese man to completely miss quite the experience. His slack body couldn’t protest, nor resist Blair claiming the proverbial throne. Eventually, the loud sound near his ear made his mind slightly clear. As if booting up an old legacy computer. The terrible headache was nothing more than an old friend to someone so young. Gradually, the ability to hear surrounding sounds soon returned to him. And those sounds were pretty obvious. Even before the harsh landing, he resigned to his fate, knowing he gave his best against the more experienced foe.
The ashen-haired man tried to open his eyes, but the fog obscured his vision. But even he could see something that was very up close. A nice view to wake up to. One that a louder slap on the mat would interrupt.
“Three!”
With that, the bell rang, and the erupting cheers of the audience followed milliseconds after. It was all over. Tomás would sigh, staring up at the lights above the two. It was a tough match, one that Tomás hoped he showed his stubbornness and tenacity. But he wasn’t ready to humiliate himself here any longer.
At least, he has a nice view in front of him.
