Dancing With The Devil

make me lose control.

"Ok it's very simple, you lose if you get knocked out first or if you surrender. There are only four easy rules: no weapons, keep within the circle on the mat at all times, fight clean, and don't kill each other. Got it?" Namjoon announced.

We both nodded and stepped into the circle, facing each other. Namjoon, Yoongi, and Hoseok gathered around watching. My back was facing them but could feel Yoongi staring at me. Boy, I wish I was fighting him instead. The last time I fought Jungkook, he drugged me so I don't actually know how good he is.

"Go" Namjoon started us.

We both stood ready, fists up, and moving around. "You sure you wanna do this princess? Might mess up your hair?" He said in a way like he was trying to get in my head.

"Oh, I'm ready. It's you who should be worried. You don't have a rag to take me out. Can't cheat this time"

Jungkook and I held eye contact the whole time. His whole "shy boy" demeanor was gone. This guy was boiling with anger. We both danced around on the mat, throwing small punches but none making any contact. It was like we were both too stubborn to make the first real move.

"Today maknaes!" Yoongi yelled, impatient for some action. Jungkook lunged at me and missed. I was always the fastest of all my brothers when we trained. I wasn't the strongest but I was very quick. I threw a punch with my right arm, just barely touching his cheek. This split second of contact got him angry and he threw an unexpected punch to my face. Before I even react to the pain, he lunged at me again, kicking me in the stomach, knocking the wind out of me.

I could hear Yoongi and Hoseok laughing behind me. For a second, he got cocky and looked up at Namjoon with a 'look how good I am' kind of face.

I used this to my advantage and roundhouse kicked him right across the face. Rule number one: never get distracted. He stumbled back, blood flying from his nose. I smirked and this only angered him more. Jimin, Jin, and Taehyung came to watch now.

I lunged at him while he tried to compose himself, punching his jaw and twisting his arm behind his back. Rule number two: don't leave yourself open. He groaned in pain and swept my foot from behind, causing me to fall on my back. He straddled me, pinning one arm down with one hand and holding my throat with the other. I kneed him in the balls and he grunted. I flipped him over onto his back and straddled him, holding both arms down. He headbutted me, both of us wincing from the pain. That's going to leave a mark tomorrow. I stumbled back off of him and we both stood up.

For the next 10 minutes, we both threw punches left and right, some hitting and some not.

The boys were starting to get bored because clearly we both were skilled and neither one was better. We both noticed this from the boys and something in Jungkook's eyes changed and his breathing told me that he was going to end this whole fight, no matter how dirty he had to get.

He snapped me out of my thoughts when he lunged at me suddenly and I ended up on the floor, pinned beneath him. I hit my head back pretty hard and tried to maintain my composure. Before my vision cleared, I saw him hold something solid, bashing me across the face with it. What the fuck? Didn't we say no weapons? There were only 4 rules and he managed to break 3 of them within one second.

It didn't knock me out cold, but the ringing in my ears and throbbing pain kept me from standing back up. I released my loose grip on his shoulder and laid lifelessly without any will to fight back. Blood covered my palms as I touched my face and the rest of the startled boys froze in place by this barbaric action.

"JUNGKOOK" Jin shouted, however it was more like he choked over his own shock. Hoseok and Jimin ran over, holding Jungkook back by both arms in fear that he'd hit me again. Namjoon and Jin helped me sit up, Jin examining the damage. "I'm taking her to the infirmary" he demanded. He picked me up before Namjoon even granted permission.
