"Five?
"Lexa?" We both shared a smile as we pulled each other in for a long, overdue hug. "Where have you been?" He asked me in disbelief.
"It's kind of a long story," I said with a shrug. "Basically, I was sent back to my past, which is technicall...

Cheers and shouts of excitement erupted from the crowd of people that hollered at the top of their lungs as they watched the fight between Luther and another buff-looking man. Five, Vanya, and I were sat below everyone, staring at the bloodied men, who were both taking hits at each other in the ring.
Luther took a swing at the lumberjack-looking man, socking him right in the cheek. I saw blood fly out from his bruised mouth. Luther took this as his moment to swing again from the other side. He had the advantage in the fight, not only because of his super strength but because the other man was beginning to get sloppy in his defensive moves.
Out of nowhere, Luther froze. His clenched fists dropped to his sides and his eyes appeared to be dazed and confused. The buff, brunette in front of his swung his fist right into the center of Luther face, punching his nose. He gave Luther a once-over, surprised that he wasn't fighting back anyway.
"Let's go!" A man shouted from behind me.
Another person from the crowd yelled at Luther, "Come on!"
Punch after punch, Luther took it without any emotion or action. It was almost like he wanted to be hurt.
Vanya winced as she witnessed her other brother getting beat up. "Look, he's pummeling him," she said to Five and me.
"Hit me again," Luther spoke up. My eyebrows furrowed. He actually wanted to be hurt.
The other man grabbed ahold of Luther's neck and growled angrily as he tossed him to the side. His large body rammed right into the wooden barrier Five, Vanya, and I were standing in front of.
"Oh my god, Luther!" Vanya scolded. She—along with everyone else watching the fight unfold—couldn't understanding why he wasn't defending himself.
"Why isn't he fighting back?" Five exclaimed.
"Hit me again," Luther demanded. His face was swollen and deformed. Blood was dripping from his cut lips. The scene was absolutely awful and even though I disliked the man, this was just painful to watch. "AGAIN! HIT ME!"
Five leaned over into the ring slightly as he tried to get his brother's attention. "Luther are you crazy? Just hit him!"
"Come on, Luther!" A man shouted. The crowd was starting to get increasingly more angry the more this fight went on.
"Hit me," Luther repeated. "I wanna feel pain. I wanna feel all the pain."
"Has he lost his mind?" I exclaimed.
"Give me everything you've got!" Luther shouted.
I glanced towards Five. "Should we do something? I could phase into him and win the fight."
"Phase into him?" Vanya repeated in confusion.
I shook my head as I spoke, "I'll fill you in later."
