The Fighter

Chapter 34

"Scarlett!" Alan shakes me as I come back to my senses.

"Get it off me!" I scream.

"It's off." he strokes my cheeks calming me down.

General Logan hands me a canteen of water.

"It's ok. This only happens once or twice." General Logan says to me.

"It's happen to me three times." Alan mutters.

"Can I take a break?" I beg.

"Take Alan with you where ever you go." He says and escorts Hex out of the room.

"A cigarette helps." Alan says once he is completely gone.

"We are going to get a pack out of my bag."

We walk to the barracks and I dump the few things in my bag out. Henry's letter fall out along with my packs of cigarettes and lighter.

I snatch a pack and walk out side with Alan. We stop by Jax's training room and grab him to come smoke with us.

"I've missed smoking so much." Jax says inhaling deeply on his cigarette.

"That pump in the lungs almost stopped me forever." I say remembering the pain.

The smoking session is nice but short. The dinner bell rings and everybody makes their way to the mess hall.

Hex is standing on a table when we walk in.

"Get it off me!" He shrieks in a girly voice. Everybody turns to me and laughs. Hex is going over what happened in training today.

"Hey, Hex did you forget the part were I took you down?" I raise a questioning eyebrow. His cheeks turn a shade of red as he steps down from the table.

"Shut up!" He growls.

I never think about my actions. Once again I punch him in the face and then climb on top of him and start wailing on him. Everybody stands around until Alan pulls me up by my hips.

The generals and Oliver walk in as Hex lays on the ground bleeding and crying out in pain. Alan has to go check to see if anything major is wrong.

"He just lost two teeth but other than that I don't see what the big fuss is about." Alan winks at me as I try to hide my giggles. Oliver puts his arm on my hips as he tries to choke back a smile.

"Mr. Walters I hope you have learned your lesson. You do not mess with a girl that is more powerful and stronger than you." General Hugh says as two boys help him up.

Oliver starts to laugh out loud now. It's so contagious that I start to laugh too. Jax was already laughing when it happened. We walks to line with tears in our eyes from laughing so hard.

"He deserved it." Jax wipes his eyes.

"He lost two teeth." Alan comes beside us laughing.

All around me boys watch me.

"You better watch your self because the next time you two meet e won't be alone." Storm hisses before he takes his seat.

"Something tells me they are planning something." I whisper to Oliver.

"You can take them even if they are." Oliver kisses my cheek as I keep my eye out for anything suspicious
