The Troubled Twin (Book One of The Twin Series) (EDITING IN PROGRESS)

Chapter 10

Zayn and I stood outside of the ring watching the fighters. There were some really good fighters and some really shitty fighters. We were there for an hour when Toni came up to us.

"We found someone for you to fight." He said. I nodded with a big grin. Zayn was holding my arm so that kept me from jumping up and down again. We followed Toni to a room where I could get changed. I put on the Nike shorts that were in the bag and I put on the sports bra. I didn't bother putting the tank top on because it would bother me.

"Zayn, you can turn around now." I told him. He had been mister nice guy and turned around while I changed. So sweet. He was helping me wrap my fists and wrist in athletic tape when Toni walked into the room and told me that he was ready for me. I nodded and took hold of Zayn's hand and followed Toni out to the ring. In the ring there was a large guy jumping around. He had his fists were also wrapped.

"Holy crap," I said under my breath. Zayn must've heard me because he looked down at me with a confused look, "I've only gone against a guy his size once before." I whispered to him.

"Well, how did that one go?"

"I won, barely." I said.

"Well, then you will win this one too." He smiled at me reassuringly. I smiled back and he lifted me up to the ring. I climbed under the rope and stood in front of the larger guy.

"Well, well, well, we have a little girly here." He said with an Australian accent, "Ya a pretty one." He smiled; his teeth were legit yellow and gross. He raked his eyes up and down my body and I felt myself shiver under his gaze. I hid it the best I could and rolled my eyes at him.

"Alright, now we have Megan Payne, sister of Liam Payne, the four time champion, going against the six time winner, Deegan Cole." Toni introduced, the crowd cheered really loud for me, apparently realizing who my brother was but champion I had no clue, which we would be having a talk about later. The crowd cheered just as loud when he introduced Deegan.

"Ah, you're Liam's sister. He's good but not good enough. Let's hope that runs in the family." I heard Deegan say over the crowd's cheer.

"Alright, rules are no biting and no weapons." Toni said, mostly to me. He asked if both one of us were ready and we both nodded. He ran out of the ring and stood at a little table outside of it. I saw Zayn standing next to him. He gave me a reassuring smile. I looked at Toni and he did the same then rang the bell on the table. I looked back at Deegan and saw he was running towards me. I waiting till he was like a foot away from me and ducked under his arm, which was stretched out to punch me. He shifted his weight around quickly and faced me. I gave him a smirk. I wasn't far behind him but he started running to me again. I quickly did a couple of flips to get away from him and once I was standing straight again I punched my left fist out, aiming to his face.

Apparently I surprised him because he just stood there and shook his head. I used this to my advantage and sent some more punched to his face and torso. He was still surprised with my attacks so I sent a roundhouse kick to his ribs. I was about to send another one to his ribs when he caught my foot. I looked up at him and this time he smirked at me. He grabbed onto more of my leg and managed to lift me up and slam my whole body onto the ground. I groaned and rolled around some. Deegan picked me up by my neck and gripped me tightly. He punched me in my stomach and I felt a pain I had never felt before. I looked down and watched as he pulled his fist away from my stomach and saw a blade poking out of the wrapping around his fist.
