strings | Grayson Dolan

Song : Jumpman- Drake

"Tonight we have a $900 prize for the winner, hopefully everyone voted because it is now time to announce our fighters..."

"ARE.. YOU.. READY?!" the host yells into the microphone. At that the crowd goes wild and arms are thrown up.

"First up we have 165 pound undefeated champion... Grayson Dolan otherwise known as the legend!" everyone yells even louder as he comes out, his skin already glistening with sweat and hair stuck down on his forehead. "Up against 210 pound Steven Kelly!" The crowd goes crazy yet again and as he steps into the ring he drops his shoulders down and started throwing punches into the air. Grayson strolls to his corner switching his weight from one foot to the other with his hands up in front of his face. Both men pull off their sweatshirts reviling their toned torsos. They both walk to the middle of the ring and shake hands. The host speaks into the mic once again, "now you know the rules, don't stop until your opponent is unconscious." he backs up and someone rings a bell and the fight begins.

"ooooohh" the crowed yelled as Steven threw the first punch with Grayson ducking left and nailing him in the stomach, Steven steps back and Grayson kicks his legs out so he lands on the ground, within seconds Grayson is on top of him throwing punches left and right. Blood was pouring from stevens face but he didn't give up, Steven wraps his feet around Dolan's back and flips them over then Steven stands up aGrayson is quick to his feet but not quick enough because kelly uppercuts him knocking him back to the ground. He stands back up, his eyes now dark, very very dark.  Grayson steps toward him and then takes a step back then in one quick motion his foot flies up and knocks Kelly onto the mat, his body still.

"Grayson Dolan the undefeated champion yet again living up to his name!" The host yells holding up Grayson's arm, claiming his victory. Grayson's chest heaves and his hair is soaked with sweat and there is blood pouring out of his nose but other than that he looks fine, relieved even. The host hops over the barriers around the ring and disappears into the mass amount of people in the crowd.

Grayson's POV

"ready?" Marcus asks as soon as I'm close enough. "Yeah." I snap looking over at the guy i just knocked out smiling as i see him limping off of the mat. "How long was that one?" i asked looking over at Marcus. "A minute and thirty, you need to work on that." He grimaces. "Are you kidding?" I laugh in disbelief. "I don't kid, kid." he spits walking away. I grab my duffle bag and follow after him to the front of the place. "What do you want from me?" i yell. "i want you to be the best you can be! And i know that a minute and thirty seconds is not the best you can do you had someone out within the first 10 seconds of the match, now thats what i expect every time. I'm not going to waste thousands of dollars for a shitty fighter." He seethes in my face. "You're the one that got me into this shit! I didn't ask for this, all i wanted to do was make some money!" i yell. "You're making plenty now aren't you?" He says and walks out of the broke. building. I walk into the bathroom and look into the almost shattered mirror above the sink. My nose stopped bleeding but there is still blood covering my lips. My eye is still healing from last weeks fight so it is yellowish. I turn on the cold water and run my hands under it then I drag them down my face and lean up against the rusty sink. After staring into the mirror for a few minutes I decide to go home.

When I get home I hear a scream so I instantly drop my duffle bag and sprint into the house knowing it was my sister. "Cameron!" I yell and she screams again. I run into the living room and see Cameron crying, her shirt ripped off and a man with a gun pointed to her head. "What the fuck are you doing to her!" I yelled and charged forward. After that I don't remember anything, it just went black. "Grayson stop!" "You're going to kill him!" I hear faintly in the background but that's it I don't feel anything else, I went numb.
