Winner Takes All (Spar)

The boy had heard of being a warrior, a true viking! He went through his sticks, got the best one he could find. It was long, smooth, and dry. It was free from many teeth marks... almost perfect. It still smelled like the tree it came from rather than slobber. This one was his best. Stori took the stick and made his way to a clearing. The first one was way too small, but the next one he found was perfect. The brown boy found what he assumed to be the center of the circle and then placed the stick in the ground so that it stood up. The sun peered through the trees, and icy wind blowing over the clearing. Stori was ready. He called out a challenge. The challenger was to bring a prize. The winner of the fight would take all! It would be a viking battle! Stori was excited, but he controlled himself. Standing proudly with the stick at his shoulder, waiting for his opponent to appear.
