Chapter 7: What went wrong?

Sara's pov

We didn't waste time. Just as we arrived, Derek punched Jonathan's stomach.

I ran towards them, the girls hot on my heals. I punched Derek hard on the nose (with a satisfying crack) and pushed Derek away, making him stumble and fall against one of his minions to the ground. Jonathan stayed frozen in place. He wouldn't look at me for some reason.

Taylor went crazy. She started to punch one of the minions, mostly at his face. And punch, kick, punch punch. It was hard to see, but I let her. Taylor needed to let all her anger out. She was really mad they had the guts to hurt Hunter. He is her best friend, and to top it all, she likes him. So I know what she felt when I saw Derek punch Jonathan (and I think I expressed that to Derek too).

Keithlin and Samantha helped Hunter up, since he was dizzy and fell without the support of the minions to push him from side to side. He felt like a human yoyo, I presume. When Hunter snapped out of it, he approached Taylor and made her calm down. Taylor hugged him tight saying to never scare her like that again, even if it wasn't his fault. Hunter smiled as he discovered that Taylor cared very much about him.

Derek stood up and growled at me. "You stupid bitch. What did I tell you?"

I shrugged, ignoring his insult. "I don't really listen idiots. I can beat you whenever I want."

He went to throw a punch to my face, but I blocked it with an amused smile.

Derek was willing to punch a girl! Oh boy, he is not a gentleman!

Derek snarled and went towards me at full force. I didn't have time to step back and he took my head into a headlock. A pretty suffocating headlock.

I gasped for air but remembered the karate techniques I learned last week (luck that I did).

I relaxed and let myself fall against Derek's chest. I waited until his hold wasn't as strong. Then I slipped under his arm and fell to the ground. This all happened in two seconds or less. When I sat on the ground I brought my leg up and kicked his groin. Yup. I love this technique.

"Fuck you! How?! You're fucking made of rubber!" Derek screamed holding his groin. Poor Derek... not.

I shrugged. "It's my ninja secret. So, now that I brought shame upon you, move along."

Derek shook his head with a chuckle. "Oh dear Sara. How wrong you are. The charade is out! He already knows this is all your fault." He pointed at Jonathan, still with a hand protecting his groin.

I frowned confused. "What are you talking about?"

What was he referring to? Is this guy crazy? Yeah. More than usual? Possibly.

"Sara, stop lying! You know that you planned this. All of this. The fight, mostly." Derek said with a smirk. "Of course, I have a little credit myself, but it was mostly yours." He finished with a wink.

I stopped agape. "What the heck is wrong with you? I didn't plan this!" I yelled.

Derek chuckled. "Oh come on! You really thought you could fool Loser Jon on believing you care about him? I already told him the truth!"

I was panicking. I really don't have a way of words and much less when being confronted. I know how to fight with my actions, but not in a discussion. Example: You say I have green hair, I don't know how to make you change your mind about that. You say I am Mrs. Claus, I might as well agree that I'm married to Santa because I don't know how to change your mind.
