Homo Horrors: Education and Trauma

Part 6: The Brawl

Narrator POV:

   Zoe and Mattea slowly began to get into a fighting stance. They were prepared. All they were waiting for was someone to strike. Zoe ran and swung first.

TV Zoe POV:

   I charged at Mattea. I knew what needed to be done. I took a more muscular body than anyone like my past self, so I knew I could overpower Mattea. I ran at her and grabbed her hair, attempting to slam her down. She began to hold my arm and I could tell she was stronger than she looked. She slowly was able to push my arm off and grabbed my neck.

   Even with how much I weighed, Mattea could still lift me up and slammed me down. I knew she was training in prison, but Jesus Christ..

   I fell down and slid back slightly as she walked over and kicked me straight in the face. Everything started to burn as I felt blood dripping from my nose.. but I didn't come this far just to fail.

   I slowly stood up and pretended to be injured. Mattea approached me slowly as I knew it was my time to strike. I sprinted straight at her, grabbing her and tackling her down.

   We fell together on the floor as I had her pinned down. She attempted to push me off but I started fucking punching her. I felt rage flow through me. Why would she be here to stop me? Can't she see I'm doing good?!

   I held her down as I punched her several times. I watched as bruises seemed to start forming on her face as I gave one final punch to the nose. I heard a crack as she screamed in pain before finally overpowering me and pushing me off.

   I stumbled back as she bolted up and grabbed my collar, kicking me in my gut. I tried to block her kicks with my arms but it was no use. She attempted to uppercut me but I was able to dodge her and quickly dive away.

   I started moving backward as she charged full force at me, powering up her punch. When she finally reached me, she used too much energy and didn't hurt me much. I grabbed her fist and twisted her arm, which caused her to scream even more.

   She was able to shove me off with her other arm and stumbled back. Now that she was injured, I could finally get her down. I ran back at her and grabbed her arms and held them behind her back. I could hear her begging me to unhand her, but I wasn't going to let this opportunity go to waste.

   I slammed her on the ground, slamming her face on the concrete floors. I knew what I had to do. The adrenaline was rushing through me as I slammed her face down again.

"Please.." She coughed up blood. "I'll do anything.. Please.. don't kill me..."

   I thought for a moment. "What do you use to build portals," I said, slightly letting her go. "If you tell me, I won't kill you."

   She reached in her pocket and pulled out a remote. "This is what Oliver used as well.. with my energy, I can make portals. You can make them normally with just this.. but with the energy and powers I gained from the accident, I can make them stronger... Take it. Take anything!!" She yelled, throwing it at me. I held it in my hands and smiled.

   "Look.. Mattea.. it's nothing personal, okay? But, I've come so far. I'll do anything to fix the hellhole I had to go through. And I know you'll try to stop me once more.." I looked at Mattea, who had fear in her eyes.

   I felt on 'my' body's belt and felt a pocket knife. Perfect.

   I grabbed it and pressed a button, switching the blade out. "I'm sorry Mattea. I just can't fail now." She tried to scream and struggle, but it was no use. I closed my eyes as I swiped down, stabbing her in the skull.
