Note: The following is a rough outline of what was to happen in this chapter. I apologise for not being able to write the full chapter as intended, however, life has proven hectic and along with my plans to start writing original stories, I don't have the time needed to finish all my stories. I didn't want to leave them abandoned, so I decided to give a rough outline of the story's events so that you could see how it would have progressed and ended. I hope that you understand. Maybe one day I might come back and fully finish them as intended, but as that's up in the air, I thought that I'd end things this way rather than leave unfinished. Thank you for your time.

Chapter 5 (Rough Outline)

The Gladiators prepare to enter the arena for their fight against the Cenobites. Few words are shared between them, with Freddy opting to lean casually against the wall in the back, showing little care for what was about to happen. Sabner's attempts to get Freddy to cooperate are futile as the Dream Demon laughs off his remarks of teamwork and chivalry. However, much to everyone's shock, when Circe makes the same offer to Jason, the giant silently stands with them.

''Hey, Voorhees, make sure you have her back by eleven.'' Freddy taunts.

They are soon summoned into the arena. The roar of the crowd makes the ground tremble beneath their feet. Once again, Freddy shows his lack of comradery by opting to sit out of this flight, letting the rest of the group take the brunt of the damage. With Pinhead in the stands, he calls upon his fighters to come forward and challenge the Gladiators. Half a dozen Cenobites, brandishing disfigured appearances and deadly weapons advance on the group. Leading the pack was Skinner, scraping his jagged arm along the sandy ground, eager to carve into flesh and blood.

The bloody battle begins and proves to be an even fight. The Gladiators fight valiantly, even Jason appears to be more interested in the outcome, tearing his way through his opponents and showing no mercy as he begins to rip them apart limb by limb. Even Freddy, watching on from the side, can't help but feel that something seems to be spurring Jason on to fight. He glances over at Circe who is fighting alongside the hockey-masked wearing killer.

''You've got to be kidding me,'' he gasps before letting out an amused cackle. ''Jason's got a boner for the angel chick?''

Suddenly, Jason rips a blade right out of a Cenobite's body and tosses it in Freddy's direction. The dream demon ducks his head, avoiding the weapon by inches.

''You did that on purpose!'' He yells, but Jason ignores him, electing to focus on the fight going on around him.

As the battle progresses, Freddy looks up to where Pinhead and the rest of his Gash were seated. Anger boiled inside of him as he gazed at the Cenobite's disinterested expressions. This feeling of powerlessness turned Freddy's stomach. He yearned for nothing more than tor each up and choke the life out of the Prince of Pain. However, he knew that in this state, there was no way for him to get the better of Pinhead, especially with how their last fight went. His eyes shifted back down towards Jason, and a sinister smile grew across his face as an idea came to him.

He didn't have to defeat Pinhead right away, all he needed at this time was to get close enough to leave his mark.

Before long, the Cenobites are defeated one-by-one, until only Skinner remains. With the other Gladiators fatigued and wounded, Jason steps forward to take the Cenobite down by himself. But, Skinner proves to be a league above the other Cenobites, carving at Jason's chest and even managing to break his mask. The Gladiators stare at Jason's face before the giant is knocked to the ground by Skinner and dealt what seems to be a fatal blow to the back of his head. Skinner then walks over Jason's motionless body towards the other Cenobites.

Kronzar pants heavily. ''I hate to say it. But, I'm not liking our chances of victory right now.''

''You and Circe will stand behind me,'' Sabner commands, stepping forward and extending his sword towards Skinner. ''I will keep him at bay. Once you see an opening, strike with everything you've got.''

Skinner closes the distance between them and raises his blade to strike. He brings it down onto Sabner. Suddenly, the angel is pushed out of the way and Skinner's weapon is batted away by Freddy's clawed hand.

''Sorry, doc. But it's now my time in the spotlight.'' Freddy smirks.

With Skinner caught off guard, Freddy slashes his claws down the Cenobite's chest. Blood gushes out from Skinner's wounds and he stumbles backwards. Freddy laughs maniacally, ready to claim his victory. He then watches as a giant hand grabs Skinner by the back of his neck. Jason rises to his feet, hoists Skinner up into the air and slams him into the ground, burying the Cenobite and stealing Freddy's win.

Enraged at what Jason has done, Freddy stamps his foot and hurls a flurry of verbal abuse at his rival. Jason casually walks past the dream demon, stabbing his machete into the ground beside Freddy's feet.

''What? I'm not good enough for you?'' Freddy yells as Jason continues to walk away. ''You think you've found your calling? You think you're better than me?''

Above him, Pinhead smiles amusedly. ''Frederick, this attitude is truly unbecoming. Jason has claimed the victory for your team. You should be proud of his accomplishment. He has done what you could not. Does it pain you to admit defeat to him?''

Freddy clenches his fist so tightly he begins to draw blood from his palm. ''I am better than him! And I can prove it!''

''Oh?'' Pinhead arched his brow.

Pinstonhead licks his lips and turns to the crowd. ''Is that a challenge we hear?''

As the crowd cheer for more, the Gladiators look at Freddy with concern etched on their faces. ''What are you doing?'' Sabner questions.

Freddy points his clawed hand at Jason. ''I'm tired of playing second fiddle to this walking corpse. He's the reason I'm done here. I will not go another day having to look at his rotten face.''

''We can get him a new mask,'' Kronzar stated.

Finally, Jason stops walking and turns to Freddy, locking eyes with the dream demon. Freddy grins sadistically at him. ''One last fight to the death. You and me, Voorhees.''
