'Want to warm-up first? or are you good to go?' I asked Elijah. 'I think....I'm good,' He replied. 'Ok, if you're so sure. Shall I go easy on ya?' I say. ' Nah, give me your best shot. I can handle it,' Elijah replied. 'Alrighty then,' I start on the offensive, using a one-two punch, then a roundhouse kick. Elijah blocks the punches pretty well, but almost got caught off guard on the roundhouse. ' Not bad,' I say. 'Not bad at all,' I continue, using different combinations, and land a few good hits. 

Elijah holds his own pretty well, and I think that I've finally found the perfect sparring partner. As we continue to spar however, my eyes change color, from the usual dark brown to intense jade green. I notice something's off only when Elijah spoke up about it. 'Cool eye color, Kenna. They're so green.' And that's when I call it quits for the day. 'Ok, I think that's good for now,' I say. 'Ok,' Elijah replied, 'But I was having fun' he muttered. I smirked slightly, hearing that, but no way was I going to continue sparring when my eyes started changing color. Again.

 This anomaly has been happening pretty much all my life. I'm not really sure what happened to make this happen, it just does. Because of this trait, and my tattoo of a green dragon wrapped around my right thigh, I've been given the nickname " Jade Dragon". I'm not really sure how this happened to me, I only know that since the first time that my eyes changed, I am able to execute my attacks with the brute force of a man three times my size. My body is able to move as if there are no bones inside and only when my eyes change, I am able to move with the agility of a Black Mamba. I guess you can say that I'm badass. Which isn't a bad thing. As I leave the gym, I wave to Elijah. ' See you later!' I call out. I get back into my bike and ride over to the local diner for food.
