Chapter Six - Let's go

A couple of days passed. I kept going around the same thing and couldn't decide. What should I do? If everything that Cassian said was real, how I was going to confront all that? After years of knowing nothing about Zazk, now I have to search for him. I didn't know if I was ready to see him, but what if my brother was with him. I had to go for Lunas, I need to know if he is alright. And if this wasn't enough, also there it was all the Jedi topic. In my hands was left a lot of responsibility. I could be the one that finds the help the Rebel Alliance is waiting for. It was a lot to think about. I wasn't ready for such a task. I needed to make a decision, and it was already clear what I had to do, so I went to see Cassian to tell him.

I went to the same big room, full of people, that they took me the other time. I sat beside a table, waiting for Cassian. Instead of Cassian in front of me appear Coronel Dontry.

"Well, well, well... I thought you left. Didn't believe a girl like you would still be here, after everything you learned about your father." He said.

"What is your problem? You don't have anything more important to do than bother me."

"I just want to know your intentions. A girl like you, would always play the victim and wouldn't want to go see daddy. You won't help us, I know you are wasting our time. Everyone sees you as our salvation, but you don't fool me."

What is wrong with this guy! Being an idiot, making fun of me, his ridiculous.

"You know what Coronel? You still think you know me, but you don't. Last time Cassian stop you from punching me, why don't you give it a try now. Let's see if I'm that little girl you talk about."

I was furious and wanted to punch him. After years of being alone with my brother on the streets, I learned to deal and fight guys like him. All those beating I received over time make me stronger and clever. I was ready to fight him and prove myself.

He throw the first punch and then other and other, I kept dodging his moves. He was more fast than any other person I had face in a battle. One by one the people in the room were coming to see the fight. I throw him some moves but without any result. After a few failed attempts he connect a punch in my face. I spin in my own position and fail to the floor. He was a good fighter, fierce and powerful.

"Hey little girl! Come on, get up if you can."

Some people were enjoying the beating Dontry was giving me, others wanted to stop it but were to afraid of him to interfere. He continue giving me some kicks in the floor. Cassian came but some guys stop him from interfering, probably to save him from the same fate as me.

"Alexia! Dontry stop it, stop hurting her!" Cassian yelled.

"If you try to stop me, you will pay the consequences Cassian. This is between me and her."

Cassian kept trying to help me, but they wouldn't let him. Dontry stop hiting me, looking for my next move.

"Come on get up! Are you scare?!"

My body hurt a lot, but I had to do this. I roll on the floor, hit him in the knee with my leg and he fell. Then I get on my feet and kick him in the face. He was still surprise with the moves I came with, but he was fast and get up real quick. I manage to hurt him with some punches but he was also hurting me. At the end I was so exhausted. He grab me by the hair, I scream by the pain.

"Dontry when I get out of this you will pay for what you are doing to her." Cassian was furious but couldn't get to Dontry.
