The Ray Family

3

I woke up with a sore neck and back but stood up and did some light stretching to try and work it out. Chucky was still asleep as the breakfast was served, I quickly ate the food before I was able to head to the entertainment centre. I went to a corner and worked on some shadow fighting, being careful not to show anything that could affect my chances in court tomorrow.

Then a male came up to me "would you like to practise with a partner?" he asked.

"Sure I'm Maya," I said.

"Riley," he said.

"What rules are going to be in place?" I asked as I didn't want to hurt him too bad.

"Nothing," he said, "but there are tap-outs."

"You're going to need that" I smirked trying to get him angry as when in a fight you need to be able to think and if you rage attack someone there is no thought execution and that makes it easier for the opponent.

He got in his stance before lunging at me, I sidestepped as he fell forward. He turned to face me, and I ran at him he braced himself for my attack but he didn't expect that I would side kick him as he seemed to be expecting a punch. He landed on his stomach and I got on his back before he could stand back up and had him in a headlock cutting off his airflow. He tapped my arm so I got off him I pushed his head onto the floor possibly breaking his nose as when he stood up his nose was crooked and bleeding. "You're good," Riley said.

"Thanks, I really needed that. I had some friends go out yesterday and I wasn't able to go out and join them as I was on house arrest" I said.

"What were they doing?" Riley asked.

"Hunting. It's a fun way to relax" I said with a smile as we went to the couch in front of the tv.

"What were they hunting?" Riley asked.

"Can't say as I was arrested before they came home to tell me about it" I said.

"What were you arrested for?" Riley asked.

"Murder but I was wrongly accused. What about you?" I asked.

"I can't imagine a pretty girl like yourself killing anyone, but I've been convicted of killing three people," he said.

"Did you do them?" I asked.

"I did," he said.

"Are they the only ones you've killed?" I asked.

"Yes," he said.

"Aww, how cute," I said and laughed.

"I could kill you right now," he threatened.

"Listen here, compared to me you're an amateur with murder, in the past five years I've killed 658 people and I have no problem adding you to the list. Just because I didn't kill the one I've been arrested for doesn't mean I don't have what it takes. I've taken on people bigger than you and just cause I don't have my choice of toy doesn't mean I can't hunt you down and end you" I threatened with a smile my eyes cold holding no emotions as I looked at him.

"How old are you?" Riley asked.

"20, yes I was 15 when I started, but I was 12 when the first time happened" I said. He gulped, looking scared. "Now if you tell anyone about what I said I'll cut your tongue out and feed it to you before my friends and I allow you out and hunt you down," I said implying that what they were hunting was not what normal people would usually hunt. I got up off the couch and went back to the corner to continue my practise. He stood up and looked as white as a ghost as he left the room, I smiled as I continued on with my training.

Then Jake came in, so I stopped and went to leave but before I left I said as I passed him "makes you wonder what I told you if it's the truth."

When he heard that he pinned me against the wall "what do you mean?" Jake sneered.
