"He is currently preparing. In the meantime, you can observe the match currently in progress."
Indeed, there was a TV in the corner of the room, showing the battle in the arena.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the arena, Cpl. Short watched with horror as her sergeant's head was separated from his body by something invisible. She cursed under her breath as she tried to track the thing that had killed the rest of her squad, not daring to bring out her motion tracker, that was how the sergeant was taken. She thought she saw movement and launched a grenade there, but it only blew up some stone.
"Come out you bastard!"- She screamed, trying to sound more confident than she was. Suddenly, a large being in white armour and a golden, domed, visor appeared behind her with a low hiss. She spinned around, dropping her rifle, and tried to stab him. The large man grabbed her by the throat and lifted her up in the air. She gasped for air as she saw him grab the knife. He looked at for a moment, then shoved it in her eye.
"And the winner is: META! Battle, over!"
Short could have sworn the Meta laughed at her as she was thrown away, then it all went black.

@Dirty: They'd probably be in the locker.
"Exellent! Your first match is ready, please follow me."
A series of lights in the floor showed Hellosh the way to the other locker room than the one that Tahril was in.
