Uppercut

Uppercut chapter 28- Battle for Itduah part 1

"Look who's up after such a long nap."
A redheaded girl said, lifting a baby out of his cradle.
The baby giggled as he chewed on the girl's hair.
She smiled and made faces at him, as the baby giggled more.
The baby started to cry a little as the sister started to hold him close.

"Ooh there, there little guy. Mom, I think Jack is hungry."
The girl called out as a woman with brown hair walked into the room.
The red headed girl handed baby Jack to their mother.

"There, there, Jack, are you hungry? We'll get you something right now.
HONEY, would you mind cutting up some fruit for your son."
Jack started to reach upward, everything was still blurry.
He closed his hands and reached out as far as he could.
Until someone grabbed his hand.
He opened his eyes and saw a hand holding his.
He looked to his left and saw Sierra laying next to him.

"You okay?"
She asked him as she pulled his arm back down and onto her chest.

"I'm okay, I'm just not sure if what I saw was a memory.
Or maybe it was a dream."
He said letting out a breath, as Sierra kissed his cheek.

"You know when I first met you  for some reason,
I knew that neither of our childhoods wasn't exactly your typical kind of childhood.
Do you ever wonder who your birth parents are?"

Jack chuckled and smiled.
"All the time, what their names are, what they look like, everything.
I even know the first thing I wanna do when I find them."

"Hm, what's that?"
She said snuggling closer to him.

"I'll introduce them to you."
He told her as she started to blush and laugh.

"What's so funny?"
He asked her as she kissed him.
"Nothing, it was just really sweet."
She said getting out of the bed.
"Now hurry up and get ready, we don't wanna be late for day two."

Jack sat upright and pondered more on his dream.
"I wonder if that was them, but why couldn't I see their faces."
He sat there for a moment when suddenly he felt someone touch his shoulder.
He looked to his left but didn't see anyone there.
All he saw were two petals, one was red and the other was crimson.
They floated down twirling around each other.
Jack reached out and the petals landed in his hand.

"Jack you better hurry up or else my dad is gonna kill you."
Sierra poked her head out of the bathroom.
She saw a tear coming from Jack's eye.
She quickly ran over to him and put her hands on his face.

"Jack, what's wrong? Are you okay?"
She turned his head towards her, knocking Jack out of whatever daze he was in.
"Huh yeah of course, why would you ask that?"

He asked as she wiped his cheek.
"You started crying."

Jack wiped his face to feel the tear.
"Huh, that's weird, sorry about that I don't know how that happened."

Sierra stood up and went back to the restroom.
"Okay just don't do that again okay.
You scared me."

Jack chuckled
"I scared you?"

"Shut up."
She said, flipping him off and heading into the restroom.
Jack looked back at where the petals had come from but could no longer see them.

"What was that?"
He wondered as he stood up and got ready for the games.

Day two of the Olympic game and much more excitement was expected after yesterday.

The team was in the locker room. Fighter stood in front of everyone giving them instructions.
He was talking in a weird accent with a cigar in his mouth.
"Alright team, it's day two and we are winning.
That means no holding back, Jack, Cero, and Downercut you guys are up next. Now go make papa proud."
He puffed out some smoke as everyone stared at him for a moment.
