Heyy everybody! To hopefully get more people to read this story I will also be posting this on FicitonPress under the username tye-dye eyes 191. So if this exact story is there don't worry it's mine. I will also put this on my profile.

Dodge, punch, jump. Punch, jump, dodge. Don't think just do I scolded myself. I paid for my wandering thoughts. I felt it before I saw it. The fist went straight to my ribs forcing me to bend, breaking a few cracked ribs in the process. Not realizing my mistake until it was too late the hand chopped at my neck, crumbling me to the ground. The most I could make out through the blood pounding in my ears was "The White Tiger wins!!!"

No, no way in hell was I going to let her win! I eased myself up careful not to alert her to my able condition. Right as Mr. T was going to hand her the money I grabbed her by the neck and smashed her face into the ground. She buckled to the ground with her hand still outstretched hoping to get the $1,000 promised by Mr. T to the winner. I staggered over to him with my bloody hand open waiting to receive my prize that made the pain worth it. He looked at me hesitantly but placed the money in my palm nonetheless.

I spun around in a 360 turn opening my arms in a sign of victory to the audience. All that betted for me were cheering and collecting money from those that were stupid enough to bet on The White Tiger. Through my slightly deaf ear, made that way from a cheap hit, I could hear them chanting "Black Cobra! Black Cobra! Black Cobra!" I grabbed a small hand mirror from my manager I guess you could call him. There is really no other word to describe it, he calls to inform me of fights and picks my battles. Ever since my first fight I had him carry a small enough mirror to fit inside a coat pocket so I could see the damages made by the fight.

I peered into the mirror and found myself staring at a bloody mess. Through the blood and scabs I saw the mouth move into a smirk. Now I know I deserved that money, it looks like I got in a fight with Andre' the Giant. I thought proudly.

I hobbled over to Lee and mumbled "Hey do you know when the next one is?" I saw partially saw him flip through a book but some blood from a cut on the head dripped into my eye making seeing things that much more difficult. "Yes you have a tatakai in three weeks."

Phew it's just a tatakai nothing too bad. I don't think I could go through another naguriai so soon after this painful one. "So how to plan to hide this one from your ma and pops." "Ehh that won't be a problem they don't care anyway. Don't worry Lee I got this covered. How long have I been doing this? About one no two years and I haven't been caught once." "Ok Alana you seem like you got this but I better not get a call saying that you can't fight anymore. You are the one keeping me of the streets you hear." "Yes Lee I got it, can I go now?" "Yea sure go smoke something or whatever you do after a fight."

I walked out of the old warehouse into the blackened night carrying the $1,000 dollars in my pocket like it was 20 bucks.
