The Wolf Next Door Book 3

Chapter 10

Derrick's POV

I snarled as I looked at my dad. "You want me to let the hybrid go huh? Maybe I should slit his throat for that fight your boyfriend caused a while back, " he smirked as he pressed the blade harder against Carter's jugular vein. 'I need to draw his attention away from me and Carter.' I looked for an opening without moving my eyes. Then I saw it. He had a gang symbol on the side of his neck. Focusing on it, I saw it was made of three claw marks with a circle around them. That symbol only belonged to one gang. The Cross Fang Gang. The CFG was older than the LMG but we were stronger. The blood between the two gangs was so terrible it could poison vampires. "You really want to start a war between the Lunar Moon Gang and the Cross Fang Gang, " I barked.

"Nice try you aren't part of their gang, " he laughed. Without a moment of hesitation, I hoisted up my shirt to reveal a brand mark on my right side. It was my gang symbol. A crescent moon with six claw marks across it making an X. "My friend there is part of the same gang. If killing him doesn't start a war. Me killing you because you killed him would certainly start one. If you want to fight then we will have an official gang fight, " I grinned evilly. With a stubborn huff, my dad let Carter go. "My name is Quick Claw, " he introduced. "I'm Quickdraw. Now get the fuck out my apartment. I'll see you at the fighting ground in 3 hours, "

I didn't as much as flinch as he flexed his massive claws. He did as instructed and left. "Are you sure about this Quickdraw? That guy is fast, " shook Carter. "He's my father and it's about time he learns his place in my life, " I huffed. Within no time Zack, Moon, Carter, and I were back at the mansion. The first thing I did was go to the training hall. Starting with Muay Thai, I fought against an AI. I put the difficulty at master. I focused on sound and sight. Muay Thai was all about reflexes and technique. Most monks used Muay Thai as a combat style. It didn't take me long at all to beat the AI. Next was Krav Maga. Krav Maga was more of a modern-day type fighting style. To me, it was a mix of street fighting, wrestling, and boxing. Setting up another AI putting it on master once more I started fighting.

This fighting style focused more on strength and speed. I was working on my dodging when Jake walked in. "Cod told me everything, " he panted. He must have ran. "Yeah and?" I dodged a combo and flipped over the AI. "Wow. Anyway, I didn't want to stop you. I wanted to tell you I'm looking forward to seeing you fight later, " he smiled. I quickly took down the AI and walked to Jake placing a tender kiss on his sweet spot. He shivered and looked down at me. "Thank you, love. Now get out I'm practicing, " I giggled pushing him out the room. I could hear him laughing as he walked off. After 2 more hours of training, I took a shower and got dressed. Jake and 10 other members of the gang were waiting by the door.

I playfully shook my head and we all walked outside and got on our own personal motorcycle. It didn't take long for all of us to reach a large all dirt area a bit out of town. There was already a group of cars there with people sitting on the hoods with girls that looked like sluts in my eyes. I tapped Jake and he nodded raised one hand and turned it sideways. It was a sign that meant formation tease. Everyone revved their bikes in response. The opposite gang looked at us as we got in line. Jake was in the front then me and the others dropped behind getting in line from highest rank to lowest. The tease formation was used to taunt the rival gang as we showed up to a fight.

We circled around them and sped off getting in a small group. Of course Jake was in the front. Taking off his helmet Jake snapped and I rode up beside him and parked. Once I gave the signal, everyone parked and took off their helmets each wearing a smirk that made us seem cocky. "Felix. Long time no see. I haven't seen you since my mother threatened to blow your brains out at a fight 2 years back, " Jake teased. I silently laughed to myself. I was the only member with their helmet on. It was a tradition for the fighting member to keep their face covered until they were ready to fight. Even then it was the leader of their gang that took off their face cover of choice. "Shut the fuck up, Trigger. You know damn well I hate you, " shot Felix taking a cigar out his maw, puffing out the smoke, and handing it to the girl that was leaning over his shoulder.

Felix's gang name was really badger because of his temper. The CFG was known for its so-called fine collection of girls. They controlled the prostitutes it some areas. The ones they like they kept as a personal pet since female members was never a possibility in their ranks. "Let's get this fight started shall we, " Jake got off his motorbike and so did I. 'Don't be stupid Jake. I love your cockiness, but it can get you killed out here. Then again you are you, my big fluffy knucklehead, ' I mentally smiled as I watched his tail sway in the air twitching ever so slightly as he restrained from wagging it. Felix and my dad walked to the center of the circle our gangs created. "Quickdraw, " Jake smirked taking off my helmet. I shook my head letting my hair naturally lay down and spike in the front.

"Quickclaw, " Felix licked as he took off my dad's bandana. Almost in unison, me and my dad got the same cocky grin across our muzzles. "No need to flip a coin this is gonna be a deathmatch, " blurted Quickclaw. 'You are willing to kill your own son. Petty and weak.' I commented to myself. Our leaders walked away and the fight commenced. "This is a one-sided fight. I'm not petty. I will not kill those that share my blood, " I lowered my ears and dodged a flow of combos my he decided to use. "Unique combo but too slow, " I commented side stepping using his momentum to push him to the ground. He growled kicked up and throwing daggers that had been dipped in poison. 'Poison daggers. He really wants me dead huh?' I noted.

I flipped through the air dodging them. "Good attack but not quite. Ok, I'm getting bored. Let's play, " I smiled getting in my stance. Quickclaw tried his series of punches, but this time he was using combos from boxing and street fighting. I blocked the necessary ones and let the less powerful ones hit in minor areas all while getting in vital strikes to vital spots. I was basically playing with him now. I found it entertaining. Then he went for the wrong target. He went to grab my collar. I was quick to grab his wrist just as his fingers brushed my tag. I looked down at his hand back at him and I saw the cocky aggressive look on his face turn to fear. "No one touches my collar, " I growled as my fur frizzed and my body surrounding in a yellow aura like glow and my eyes turned green. I pulled him closer colliding our heads together hard making he stumbled back holding his head.

I walked to him and did a special combo that was a mix of all my styles. It was too complex to explain and difficult to teach. There was one very important detail about the combo. It starts and ends with a double reverse roundhouse kick. The first puts the target in a daze so the moves in the combo will land. The second knocks them to the ground and has enough power to make your target see double. When he was down I stood over him grabbing his shirt lifting him up. "Give. In. Now, " I demanded. Quickclaw was trying to focus but couldn't. "Never! This a deathmatch!" He snarled giving up on trying to see the real me. "A deathmatch can end one of two ways. One could give in losing the fight but keeping his life or one of us die. I don't want to kill my dad, but if you don't give in I will make sure you die a slow painful passing, " I snarled lifting one hand as it surrounded in lightning aiming at his heart.

Fear once more filled his eyes and he blinked a few times looking at my hand. Without a second more of hesitation, he lifted his head swallowed, and cried out, "I GIVE IN!!" Felix was shocked and dropped his cigar from his mouth. I deactivated my ability and dropped him standing and walking back to Jake my tail high and ears perked. "You did great baby, " Jake praise hugging me tightly and kissing my cheek. "Like I said, I can't be a kid forever, " I gloated licking his ear. Jake looked at my neck and poked my collar. "What was that for love?" I questioned fixing his collar since it was backward and had a bit of dirt on the tag.

"Because you said no one touches your collar, " he grinned. I rolled my eyes and shocked his nose a tiny bit making him jump a little and sneeze. "Let's go home my giant dummy, " I teased. He nodded and followed me putting on my helmet. It was fun showing my skills, but I wish my dad was more civilized then he was. I knew I would see him again. All I wanted now was to snuggle up with Jake while he played his game and grabbed my ass to get a laugh out of me glaring at him after he did.

I honestly didn't know how to add Derrick's laid back demeanor into a fight scene, but I like the way it looks so as IIsuperwomanII once said. Shmurr. Shout outs. anbu_naruto, animegirl123029, Drake_Wolstorm, _JustANaughtyReader_, and FloppyfightersIwin. Have a good night my fluffs.
