This is a joke, right? All that time Melody spent waiting for another shot at a title, and her long-awaited return to the arena throws a damned dog at her? Insulting. That snooty Clive was on the scheduling committee this season, wasn't he? He probably thought this matchup would be real clever: "Look, Melody's facing a dog because she's so ugly, hahaha, like a dog, hahaha." Well, she'll show him! She'll grind this poor little doggie into dust! The next one, too! And however many other animals they send after her! With Melody's forcefield protecting her from low-damage attacks, it'll be a surprise if the Prophet even gets scratched in this little fracas, and poison counters will just be the added counter-insult against those idiots and this... mutt!

One might think that Connie is a cute dog. Well, you'd be right. One might also think that Connie can't defend herself very well. What's a cute dog going to do against a powerful prophet? That's where you're wrong! Connie's no slouch and she won't roll over and beg against Melody! Connie is a highly talented and highly trained canine combatant, capable of defending herself against everything Melody has! She can endure a hit, even if just barely, and bite Melody back hard! Not just a regular bite, but a SUPER BITE that will take the vain prophet down in one hit! After all, who imagines a cute dog like Connie has that sort of jaw power? Certainly not Melody, who will be completely stormed away by the mighty jaw of Connie!

"Ah, so that white haired lass is the one you're interested in."
The 'lass' was Connie of Suikoden fame, who was trying and failing mightly at her attempts to damage Melody. The fight was already over, but that hadn't stopped Melody from cruelly tossing an elixir on Connie and making her suffer some more. Leopold's growl made everyone need him shy away. He was not pleased with what he was seeing.
"There are far more effective ways to deal with heretics than mere executions. You go tend to the lass, while I speak to the crowd and arrange a fitting punishment."

"MEN AND WOMEN OF THE DL UNIVERSE. I HAVE SEEN ENOUGH FROM THIS FIGHT. MELODY VILENTE HAS VIOLATED THE HOLY SCRIPTURE AND PURE IDEALS OF OUR ORMUS RELIGION BY TORTURING AN INNOCENT ANIMAL. SHE HAS BEEN JUDGED A SINNER, AND MUST BE PUNISHED!"
"Tuxedo Zidane is here to save the day!"
".....My son Leopold, if you could?"
"OH DEAR GOD!"
"He doesn't listen to the words of a sinner, Zidane. Oh yes. MY CHILDREN, GO FORTH AND SMITE THE SINNER MELODY!"
Sergius had meant 'his children' quite literally. An army of pissed off children had come to the arena to watch the fight, only to see Melody bully poor Connie. Relm, Porom, and a dozen others charged Melody and beat her as only pissed off women can do to another woman. (They were safe to do so, with Albedo being slaughtered by Sephiroth at that moment.)

The former prophet turned demon woke up, in a full body cast. A small shack surrounded her bed; a window showed her the view of the DL hospital/clinic. She knew where she was. Melody had been put in the Dog House in the most literal sense of the word. Her recovery room was the one where the puniest of puny and wild animals recovered at. A small bell lay on an otherwise table. Melody rang it, hoping it would bring a nurse. It did.
Alonso burst through the door, resplendant in a nurse's outfit. "Ahhh, Miss Melody! It's time to change your dressing! Try to be strong- we had to put extra effort into the work so there would be no scarring, so we used glue instead of staples. It's going to hurt a little when I remove the bandages!"
The screaming started well before Alonso peeled off the first layer of gauze.
Melody Vilente: 36
Connie: 6
