Elizabeth's Pov

" Our next fighter is someone new please welcome Elliot Parker", a short bald guy yelled. Various shouts rang out in unison.  I walked towards the center with my arms in the air. "  Elliot will be going against the all time champion, The Skull Crusher". I snorted, The skull crusher.. who comes up with these names." I want a good clean fight I'm amusing you both know the rules", the short bald guy said. I leaned in to read his silver name tag " Vincent", stood out in thick black letters. I nodded. He stepped behind the steel metal gate he blew his whistle, signaling that the fight is beginning. I lifted my fists."The skull crusher" ran towards me with his ape like arms.I jumped to the side. He growled in frustration. I mentally prepared myself for the force of impact. I right hooked him in the jaw causing him to shriek in pain. The crowd began to roar with applause. " You little witch", he yelled while running toward me. It felt as though the world was in slow motion, I round kicked him in the shin. " Harder, harder, harder", my father yelled over the sound of my fists hitting the punching bag. I stopped. " My hands hurt", I whined. He bended down and wiped away my tears. " The world won't stop for anyone, especially you Lizzy Bug". He ruffled my hair and stood up. " Let's continue", he said. I raised my hands and began to punch again. I delivered a blow to his left temple knocking him out cold. Various boo's and shouts rang out in unison. I walked towards the metal door. I pushed open the curtain and walked towards my dressing room. I locked the door and changed into my black hoodie, my black skinnes, and my white vans. I tied my hair in a bun and walked towards David's door. I knocked 3 times indicating it was me." Come in Elise", David said. I opened the door. I walked to his sofa. He was looking out the window at the courtyard where all the fights take place. 2 girls were leaning on him, wearing nothing but lace lingerie. I circled the sofa and sat on the chair facing him. " Hello Audrey, Violet". " Hi Elise", they both said in unison. " That was a hell of a fight you put up", Audrey commented." Thanks", I said. " Here's all your betting money", David said. He slammed a roll of money onto the table. I whistled through my teeth, I bent down and swooped it up. $375, I mentally counted it in my head. I put it in my hoodie pocket and walked towards the corner where my blue Jansport backpack wilted. I took out the money and stuffed it into my backpack along with my school books. " Alright I'll see you guys next Saturday", I said while walking towards the door. " Alright kid, see ya", David said. I opened the door and walked outside, the door shut close behind me. I took out my mp3 player and plugged in my earphones. I choose the song greatest view by Flume. I started to walk home.
