Connor's match was opening the second week,as the announcer yelled through the megaphone"Fighters make your way to the arena"
Jude glanced down to see his quiet roommate waiting patiently for his opponent. Over the days,he had noticed something about his room mate,the fact that he could handle three to four things at a time,by that he meant he had extra two limbs, he could sprout them at any time of his choice.
The whistle blew and Connor's opponent whipped out his frog-like tongue wrapping it around Connor's right leg.
The look on Connor's face just screamed" PURE DISGUST"he swung his hand crashing his opponent into the ground. His opponent got up quickly dodging Connor's hand as he swung his right extra limb at him.
"Give up now!" Connor shot out his extra two hands and wrapped it around his opponent.
"Never,eat my slime" his opponent blew out slime everywhere making Connor's grip on him fail.
"Aaargh"Connor's limb retracted back to his sides as Connor ran forward to attack his opponent up close.
"You're never gonna win,loser,you know why?"
He let out a triumphant laugh "cos I'm invincible."
" Shut up" Connor punched him in his face.
"You're nothing,you think slime's gonna get you anywhere it won't so shut up and stop talking"Connor kept on landing continuous punches with his extra hands.
"Thump" his opponent fell flat on the ground,his body raising up dust as he made contact with the ground.
Connor crouched near him yanking his hair.
"Who's invincible now,go on tell me,I wanna hear that triumphant laugh from your yapped out lips come on say it."
"I thought so"Connor's lips curved up in a sly smile as his opponent was too weak to speak
" You hear that everyone,froggy over here is nothing but frog toast"Connor kicked his sides.
The announcer who snapped out from his daze grabbing the megaphone "The winner for this match is Connor" There was silence before the crowd erupted in cheers.
Connor took his bow before the crowd and started walking out as the next contestants made their way in.
"Nice job"Connor turned around to see Jude leaning against the wall with his hands in his pockets."Thank you" Connor lips curved up into a smile.
Connor turned around to walk to his room. "Where are you going" Jude's voice rang in his ears as he looked at him.
"Hey,even champions need their rest"Connor smiled as he walked to his room.
"See you later" Jude made his way back to watch the ongoing match in the arena.

"Knock, knock"
Series of knocks were held on Kyle's door as he opened it to see Liana, her violet her was packed in a high ponytail.
He looked down at her "Yes" his voice came out husky as he just woke up from his rest.
She looked up,lilac eyes meeting emerald green."I was thinking since we would soon be married, let's start treating each other like it, I mean we would soon be together yet you don't really treat me like that."
Kyle frowned, he hated this topic, he hated being reminded the fact that in a year's time he would be wedded to someone he didn't love.
"This is neither the time nor the place to discuss such, follow me", he got out of the room carrying his own copy of the room key.
Liana looked at him inquisitively, "what I mean is that we should probably date you know to get to know each other clearly, surely you wouldn't want to marry someone you didn't know" her slender hands ran up his arms cupping both sides of his face as she leaned in to him.
"No, I can't do this"he removed her hands from his face,
"I can't marry you, because I don't love you the way I should".
Tears flooded her lilac eyes as she looked at him.
"Why" her voice cracked.
He hated being the one making her like this but he couldn't help it he didn't want her marrying him just to regret it years later.
"I'm sorry I need to go"
"Kyle,please wait"He stood still but didn't face her,she continued "let's just date first things might work out."
"Fine" with that he left.
Liana fell to her knees as she allowed the tears to flow quietly as she looked at his retreating figure.
"Why can't you let me love you" she intended on shouting it but it came out barely audible a whisper even.
