Jeon training room"Fight you...?" I almost let it slip that I know who he is.
"Yes fight me."
"How come no one else had to fight you?"
"Because no one has done as exceptionally well as you have. Now, get into position. First to knock someone down wins."
I decide not to argue further, no point in raising suspicion. I get into my stance and wait for a signal to start.
"Both sides ready?" Dong-il says, me and Jungkook nod.
"Fight!"
I immediately survey my opponent. Good build, strong biceps, good stance. This will be tough.
He comes in with a hook punch and I block it, he follows it up with a quick stomach punch that I dodge out of the way of. I'm to the left of him. I roundhouse kick him in the stomach. He cliches his stomach and steps back. I run at him while he's distracted, jumping and wrapping my legs around his neck. I use my momentum to pull him towards the ground. He attempts to use my momentum against me. I feel myself falling towards the floor. He's in control.
I can't lose this.
I unwrap my legs and push my self off him, flipping and landing. While I flip I kick him in the chest. He doesn't expect this and he starts falling.
Thud
I won. He's on the ground.
"The winner is Jung Y/n!!" Dong-il announces.
Jungkook stands up and brushes off his body. He extends his hand out.
I take it and shake it with a firm grip.
"Good job. No one has ever beat me during a test. That's all, please wait until the results come back."
I go back to the waiting area and watch the rest of the competitors go.
Once all of them are done, we are lead back to the main lobby. We are given food and drinks. My dad advised me not to eat or drink anything they give me, so I just stand there and observe.
The people in gowns and suits have a wide range of age. I see some middle aged men as well as some young women. Interesting.
I notice something out of the corner of my eye. It's Jungkook coming down the big staircase, wearing a suit.
Damn he cleans up nice.
Wait no. This is a mission. He's your enemy.
He looks around, searching for something or someone. His eyes land on me. He starts walking towards me.
I was what he was looking for.
"Hello Mrs. Jung Y/n, good job on the test. I have to say that I am very impressed by how well you did. Your skills are quite extraordinary."
I find myself blushing. No one has ever praised me like this.
"Oh, thank you. Did I hurt you?"
"Don't worry about it, we were on a mat so it didn't hurt. But that one move, the one were you wrapped your legs around my neck and pulled me down. I've never seen that move. I was really surprised, I didn't know how to react."
"Ah, that move. I call it 'The Spider.' You use your momentum to take someone down. I learned it from a movie actually." I laugh at myself. I sound stupid 'I learned it from a movie', very professional Y/n.
"A movie? Well I'm glad it works." He lets out a laugh. His smile is really... cute? He looks like a bunny.
"Haha yeah."
"Well, I'm going to go and talk to some other competitors. I hope to see you around." He winks and walk off.
I stand there, speechless. Now isn't the time for this. I need to get my head in order, I can't let him manipulate me.
"Hello again everyone,
We will now start announcing the people who passed the test."
