Ace POV:
"Ace~" an faint voice chanted out my name in a teasing manner. "Ace~" The voice called slowly being to sound like multiple. It was dark, I couldn't move it was as if I was being held down in this black slime like water. "Ace~" It, they called again louder. I couldn't breathe I was just forced to listen to their never ending chanting. "ACE,ACE,ACE" The voices screamed before hands rushed to start grabbing my limbs. 'This was new'. "Ace~ your mine~" The voice sung sweetly as the others faded out. "MINE!" It screamed.

I jolted up before tumbling out my bed with a loud thud. "Damn it." I mutter before sighing. "That isn't very lady like unknown fighter" Said an familiar voice with a slight chuckle. Glaring at the hovering figure I quickly pull myself up before letting off a sigh. "Shut up Marcus" I spat with a small smirk before stalking towards my closest. "Imagine the chaos in the underground ring once they find out you're a girl" Marcus chirped before flopping onto my bed. "That won't happen" I sighed before stepping into my bathroom once I found a suitable outfit quickly changing and brushing my teeth. "Your folks are gone by the way" he called out before rummaging through my belongings.

I cracked the bathroom door open before squeezing through and shutting the door. "Im not surprised" I replied dryly before bending down to put my shoes on. "They disappear after each fight" I added with a hum. I watch as Marcus grabs my bag before walking out my room and soon out the door with me following in suit. Once I lock the door I am greeted with a loud blaring horn. With an annoyed sigh I glare at the idiots I call friends before stalking towards the car and hopping in.

"What's up babe's?" Greeted the driver Louis with a small nod and handing me a coffee. "Hey Lou" I said softly before buckling myself in. "Thanks for the drink" i added once the car started moving ignoring the horse play that was going on behind me. "You don't haft to thank me everyday." Louis sighed and faking annoyance. "Hey little A you staying after school to watch the practice?" Another voice budge in from Atlas his eyes sparkling as he spoke. "Sure" I spat out blankly at the youngest. Don't get me wrong we're all the same age. Atlas is the youngest due to being born in December. Why little A when I'm older? It's an height thing.

After a few minutes of pointless bickering and me sipping on my coffee we finally pulled into the school. Once everyone was inside the building we made a beeline straight towards the gym. "Come on Ace shoot some hoops with me" called Marcus as he dashed into the back to find a basketball. To give you an visual my friend group was the whole basketball team and a few strays that I've taken in. Marcus,Atlas,Louis and Eric are the only ones that know I do underground fighting. "Just tell him no" came a deep voice behind me sending chills through my spine "Thank you for blessing me with your voice Eric" I said sarcastically before nudging him. "Atlas is already keeping him occupied" I pointed out towards the two guys who were already fighting over the ball.

Without saying a word back Eric drags me over to the bench's before forcing me to sit down. "Lay on me and I'll kill you" I warned not really wanting to have the weight of another person on my bruised legs. My warning however was ignored as Eric rested his head on my body followed by the warmth of Louis resting his head on my shoulder. "Hey team captain shouldn't you join them?" I teased Louis before playing with Eric's hair. "You know we're having a new student coming in today" Louis said in almost a whisper like voice completely ignoring my question as the squeaking of shoes joined in the conversation. "In the middle of the year?" I asked watching as Atlas scored into the net. "Weird isn't it?" Louis questioned. "I heard that they were a hella good fighter" Marcus said coming up to us. "We are talking about the newbie right?" He asked with a tilted head. "The newbie?" Atlas asked as he walked up with a skip. 'At least I'm not the only one who didn't know about the new kid' I thought as Marcus started scolding Atlas.

I rolled my eyes at the ridiculous rumor the gym doors opened. "And here is the gym, you'll mostly see these five in here" The couch said cheerfully. Glancing up over to the scene I took note that the principal and coach were standing on either side of a girl. Louis quickly stood up before hoping down the bleachers. "What's going on coach?" Marcus asked walking behind Louis soon followed by atlas. Eric lazily lifted his head up before tilting his head. "Ahh boys and Ace" he greeted with a grin. "This is Kia she's new to this school" I slowly felt myself getting annoyed at the new distraction interrupting our bonding moment. I let out a mental groan before standing up and joining the others. "Why is she here" I blurted out before pausing, "I mean why is she in the gym?". "She has most of her classes with you five so I figured you guys would show her around" he explained before pushing the newbie inside farther. "Go ahead and get used to each other" he explained before guiding the principal out and closing the door.

There all six of us stood in complete silence. One two three four. 'Did it suddenly get colder?''. Five six seven eight. 'I locked the door right?'. Nine ten.. "Soo you play ball?" Atlas asked interrupting the silence his eyes loosing their shine. "Do you want to die?" The light voice asked causing Eric to quickly stand up. "What?" Marcus asked with an head tilt.

"I said..."
