His Fire

Chapter 3

"Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you - Oprah Winfrey"

I slip on my shorts, sports bra, shoes and braid my hair into  a fish plait. I wrap bandages around my knuckles so that it can deliver more force when I'm stricking my opponent and I just add a touch of mascara and lip glass. A girl's gotta look good when she's going into battle. After checking my fit self in the mirror, I take out the mask Kirasu Sensei gave me back in Japan. Numerous roses cover the eye and then leads down to your ear on one side. It's made of Titanium. After putting that on, I grab my phone with its GPS and head into Slade's garage to borrow his bike.

I'm surprised to find that the place is only 10 minutes away so on nights when Slade's home, I can literally just jog here. There's a bouncer at the door and plenty of other people who look like they came to watch the fight lined up. After showing him my ID, I get in. I follow the croud of people as they go down some stairs and come out into a very noisy area. There's dozens of people cheering a fight that's happening in a ringed boxing cage. I make my way to the entrance and glance at its opponents. My eyes widen with surprise when I see that same piercing green eyes. I knew he wasn't innocent. Just then a bell rings signaling a winner and I see a guy with a microphone holding up green eyes' hand while another guy is  drowning in his blood. The guy with the microphone says "Let's give it up for the all time champion Lucas Stephan Trace. Leader of the Blood Moons gang." mmmm so his name is Lucas... And he's a gangleader. That would explain the six men that were guarding him.. Impressive..

Lucas:

Mike holds up my hand and his loud microphone says" After tonight's events.. Does anyone brave enough want to challenge the undefeated winner to get the ultimate prize of 6 million dollars?? " I smirk because no one brave enough can ever challenge me. Just then I hear a female voice say" I will. " I just let out a laugh. A female? Fighting me? She doesn't even stand a chance. We've never even had a female before. Mike's eyes widen." Could you please come inside the ring whoever said that. " I just stare as the most beautiful woman steps into the ring. Her tan toned body showing off how fit she is. I look at her face and see that she's wearing a mask and then I look into her eyes and I feel something familiar. She looks so familiar but where?? Mike's voice interrupt my thoughts when he says "Ladies and gentlemen.. For the first time in our ring we will have a female fighting." and I hear cheering from the crowd. Guess I just have to go easy on her. The cleaners come and take Oscar's body away and clean the ring. "5 minute break to get ready." Mike says looking at both of us and I just smirk and walk over to my men to get a drink of water because she doesn't stand a chance.

Skylar aka Rose :

I stand there with a smile plastered on my face. Lucas thinks that I'm a woman, I can't fight. Well wait till he sees me. I put my mouth guard in my mouth, adjust my mask and quickly stretch. My ring name is rose simply because Kirasu Sensei said that I was like a rose. Beautiful but deadly. Get too close and you'll prick yourself on its thorns. "Opponents, times up." I walk over to the center of the ring and face Lucas. I stare him in his eyes , a smirk plastered on both our faces. "Rose VS Lucas ..  " says the guy with the microphone and I hear the bell ring signaling for us to start.

I take my stance and we end up cycling each other like sharks. I know he's waiting for me to strike so I pretend to go for his face but meanwhile, I deliver a powerful kick in his groins. He let's out a groan and manages back on his feet. The rule about these kinda fights his there are no rules. It's one for himself. You fight till the other can't fight anymore or surrenders. Lucas aims a punch for my face and I dodge and throw a hard punch in his stomach. He keels over. Good, you deserve it jerk. At this point Lucas is way above being angry and he charges at me like a bull seeing red. The fight carries on with Lucas throwing punches, kicks, trying to get me off my feet. All of which I have dodged with another kick to his groin, punches to his face, more powerful kicks to his body and my favorite place, the ribs. At this point he's on the floor, all bloody with cuts on his face, probably broken ribs. While here I am, unharmed and not even a scratch.The one thing I'll remember was the scratch I left on his left eyebrow. That was pretty sick. This ladies and gentlemen only took 3 minutes to get this man on his back. The bell goes off and I know I've won. "The new female champion... Rose!!!"  yells the microphone man as he lifts my hand up.. Yassss this queen has moves. The guy hands me my prize in a suitcase.. 6 millions dollars baby.. I gladly take it and get off the stage. My eyes locking with Lucas. One thing I've learned was if you ever defeat a gangleader, you better move your ass and get the hell out. So that's what I did, I ran down the stage towards the back door because I parked my bike right there. People patted my back and yelled my name. As soon as I got on my bike, I shoved the suitcase into my back pack, strapped it onto my shoulders and as soon as I was off in the distance, I heard gunshots fire and a lot of men yelling my name. Yep I was right.

Once I got home, thank God Slade wasn't there. I only managed to put his bike the way I found it and quickly sprint into my room. I jumped underneath my covers and I heard the front door open. After a while, he opened my door then closed it again. I only got out to shower when I heard his soft snores.

As  the hot water hits my skin, I can't help but anticipate tomorrow's fight and wether I'll see Lucas again. Lucas. Lucas. Lucas. His name tastes like honey on my tongue but what scares me the most is that I think that I just might have a teeny eency weeny bit crush on him and that scares the hell outta me. I've only seen this guy in like two days, we haven't even spoken for crying out loud. That scares the shit out of me because Skylar Midnight has never had a crush on anyone before. Hell she's never even been in love.
