Chapter 5 : Blurry

Mia watched Kai she felt small under his hard gaze, under the watch of his hungry animalistic eyes.

Slowly she let out a breath and got into fighting stance just as he did, everything happened so slow. The two watched each other for a few short seconds. The silence was thick like humidity on a hot summer day, it constricted her breath and agitated the girl so. Mia felt her palms beginning to sweat and adrenaline start to pump thickly through her veins.

She heard Chanyeol and D.O mumbling amongst each other but she didn't dare peel her gaze from Kai. Mia felt the many emotions churning throughout the large room. She attempted to ignore them, but simply just couldn't. They were constricting and eating at her insides, Mia calmed herself down wordlessly. 'It's going to be alright' she spoke to herself in the confines of her own mind.

Kai's face was blank and his body stiff Mia almost forgot why they were in the middle of the training room. Standing instance, that was until he ran towards her, Kai's face pulling into a snarl and body moving with deadly fluency and utter control.

He balled his fist tighter and swung it towards her face, Mia sidestepped and blocked his swing with her forearm. His hit was strong, Mia clenched her teeth but didn't cry out, she fought back the pain that rung through her arm. Biting back her pain Mia growling, swinging a punch back into Kai. Striking him in the jaw right under the ear, Kai snarled and stumbled back. Mia saw her opening, running to Kai and kicking the man straight in the chest. Sending him stumbling on to the ground in a heap.

Mia quickly jumped on top of the man straddling his waist and pinning his hands under her feet. Kai threw his head back in a chuckle as Mia grabbed the front of his cotton shirt. The blonde man examined her stern face with an amused expression. There was a glint of something sinister, in his dark coffee coloured eyes.

"I typically like to be on top the first time". Kai joked smugly, D.O choked on his own breath as Chanyeols mouth fell wide. In response to Kai's egotistical remark, the brunette stared down at him blankly. Before a sharp growl left her curled lips, quickly the girl balled her free hand. Drawing her arm back before punching the man straight in the face.

Her anger slowly consumed her, like fire consuming a paper it was quick and destructive. Kai had his eyes squeezed shut, teeth clenched biting back the pain. As Mia relentlessly struck the man in the face repeatedly. Quickly her eyes went dark, all chocolate aspect going. Like a shark, the brunette's eyes went dead, everything that happened in the last couple of days burned through her mind. Every pain-filled memory etching itself fresh into her mind, the brunette growled lowly.

Mia stopped for a moment faltering in her hits, her mind ringing and fists tingling under her bandages. Mia felt her knuckles opening up once more, becoming raw and bleeding sores. Mia knew Lay would scold her for that later on, but she pushed those thoughts away. Her breath slightly laboured as she tightened her fist around Kai's shirt.

The blonde man peeped one eye open looking up to the angered girl, Kai flashed her a smile. Slowly the man turned his head to the side, spitting out a glob of blood.

"Nice job but ". Kai began before yanking his wrist out from under her foot. Grabbing onto Mia's shoulder, Kai suddenly flipped their positions. The brunette groaned as her back slammed into the ground. Kai pinned Mia's hands down with his feet like she did, so her hands couldn't be used against him. The blonde haired man eyed Mia's angered face gently, tracing his finger down her cheekbone slowly. Only trying to agitate her and well it was working, Mia turned away from his hand.

"Don't touch me"! She snarled looking deeply into his eyes, his brown orbs fighting her own. Mia's eyes flickered dangerously with anger resulting in a sly smirk from Kai. The man was smug and confident, basically doing what he always did when he was in control. He mocked her, the blonde man clicked his tongue and grabbed hold of her face.
