(Recap-"They got captured, Violetta. The Yang have them.")
I gasped. I felt tears brimming in my eyes. "What!?. H-how?" I ask, crying a bit.
"We don't know, Violetta. They just told us to take care of you and they left" Alexander said, running his hands through his hair. I wiped away my tears and looked at them straight in the eyes.
"We cannot wait any longer. I have to train, please. We need to save them" I said with a determined look on my face.
"You're right. We need to get you prepared. C'mon, let's go" Sebastian says.
We follow him to a room and boy was it huge. There were about 30 people hitting dummies or battling each other. "This is it" Alexander says spreading his arms. I followed Sebastian to an area in the corner. "Ok, so were going to start with the basics. You need to know how to throw a good punch, for defence of course. Being a spy requires for you to be silent, swift, and quick on your feet. And most importantly, you will need to know how to fight" Sebastian says. He led me towards one of the dummies and he demonstrated a punch. The dummie went back a bit. "You try" he said. I took a deep breath in and clenched my hands. I brought them to my face and punched the dummy with all the strength I could manage. The dummy went back slightly but, it did move. My knuckles were throbbing a bit also. "Nice punch, Violetta" Sebastian says, smiling a bit. I smiled back. I punched some more and soon I was good to go. "So what's next?" I ask. "A simple but painful kick. It's really useful" Sebastian said. He faced the dummy, placed his hands in front of his chest, and lifted his leg. He swung his leg towards the dummy and it looked as if it was about to break. "Wow" I said with a raised eyebrow. "Your turn" he said, stepping aside. I walked up to the dummy and did the same thing Sebastian did. I saw Alexander practicing on another dummy with a girl who was really pretty. I smirked inside my head. I faced the dummy, lifted my leg, and swung it towards the dummy.
That. Was. Painful. However it was a pretty darn good kick. After a few good kicks on the dummy, the pain was finally bearable.
"Your a natural at this" Sebastian says whilst messing up my hair. I laughed and lightly smacked his hand away. "Now you are going to try to take me down" he said, standing in front of me and placing his hands out in front of him. "Show me what you got" he said, tauntingly.
At first I wasn't so sure I had a chance. All I got to practice was a punch and a kick.
I ran towards him, aiming to punch his face. He ducked and punched my gut. I yelped a bit, in pain, but recovered quickly. I took a deep breath in and placed my hands in front of my face. I came up with a plan to pretend that I was going to hit him in the face again, but at the last moment kick him in the shins. I did exactly that and it worked. It distracted him for a bit and I kicked him on the side of his rib cage, maybe a bit too hard?. Sorry not sorry brother, karma is a #&$#$.
He grunted and held his right side with both his hands. Once he got up he smirked. "Your kicks are more painful than those punches" he said, grimacing a bit. "Sorry, are you ok?" I ask, walking up towards him. "Yeah I'll be fine" he said. "Can I get some water?" I ask. "Yeah it's over there in the upper right corner. I'm gonna register you in, train while your at it too" Sebastian says.
"Ok see you later" I say. He nods his head once and jogs off. I walk towards the water fountain and a certain voice makes me freeze.
"Violetta, is that you?"
Oh no.
