Prologue
I was walking along the dirt path with the hairs on the back of my neck standing on end. I listened intenly but couln't make out any other sounds than my own breathing. Shrugging it off, I continued to walk towards my apartment, shifting the bag in my arms as I did so. I made it five more paces when I heard scuffling coming from behind me, glancing over my shoulder and squinting slightly, I made out a guy jogging my way. Stepping to the side, I gave him more room to pass by, smiling his thanks he kept on going. I continued walking as an uneasy feeling crept over me. Glancing around I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary but I couldn't shake this feeling that something was about to happen. As soon as that thought crossed my mind I felt someone grabbed me from behind and my world go dark.....
I knew I was dead if i wasn't then it wouldn't be long, whoever hit me meant to kill me if the amount of blood dripping down my temple was anything to go by. Opening my eyes, I tried to look around but the black dots that kept dancing in and out of my vision were making it hard for me to see anything. Squeezing my eyes shut and opening them again is when I noticed the blotchy man standing in front of me. I waved my hands in front of my face trying to protect myself but, really what was I going to do? I could barely see and my head hurt so bad, if there wasn't so much adrenaline pushing through my system I would probably be passed out cold.
I didn't notice that I had closed my eyes until I heard growling, shaking myself I opened my eyes and realized that the strange blotchy guy was still in front of me blocking another figure from getting close too me. Trying to breathe away the pain as my eyes sight began to get better, I watched horrified as the figure rushed at the blotchy man in front of me. The man in front of me just widened his stance and growled. Wait, what? Why the hell was he growling and how come he sounded like such an animal?
The figure paused as he heard that sound and glanced over at me as I still laid in a heap on the cold ground. He looked from me and then to the man in front of me, standing a little bit straighter I heard him chuckle and look my way, in a menacing whisper I heard him say "this isn't over." With that being said he turned and ran into the woods surrounding the path I was currently laying on. I glanced up at the strange man in front of me and whispered "thank you." I expected him to say something like, "your welcome or are you okay?" but all he did was turn his head towards me slightly. I couldn't see anything on his face except his eyes, they had this other worldly look to them, one a bright green and the other a soft baby blue and shining like light bulbs in the night. I didn't even have time to gasp when those eerie eyes landed on me before he was gone. What the hell just happened?
6 years later......
Mia's (POV)
Sweat dripped onto the mat as I waited, watching his every move waiting for him to attack. He feigned to the left and then to the right but I didn't even twitch watching his shoulders and feet knowing his body would telegraph his move. He dug the ball of his left foot into the mat and pivoted his shoulders bringing his right foot up in a round house kick, slightly moving to the right to help lose the power of his kick I let it connect with my left side, curling my arm around his calf I pivoted to my left, bringing my right fist into the side of his face.
Dropping his leg and moving out of his range of attack, I waited for him to attack again. He came at me throwing punch after punch, I dodged and weaved making sure that what punches got through my defense landed on my upper arms. Blocking a punch meant for the right side of my face, I used his propelling motion to headbutt him in the nose using this distraction, I punched him in the stomach and as he doubled over i followed it up with a knee to his face causing him to slam to the mat.
"Omg, Spencer I am so, so sorry. I got caught in the moment. Are you okay?" I whispered as he continued to lay sprawled across the training mat.
Spencer got up, crossed his arms and glared at me. I felt my breathing stop as I waited for him to comment, when he opened his mouth to yell at me I started to cringe and closed my eyes not wanting to see the hate in his eyes. When he didn't speak, I peeked a look at his handsome face and felt myself groan. The big fat jerk was laughing at me. When I fully opened my eyes and looked at him he let his silent laugh out into a full blown howl. Grabbing his stomach he doubled over with his laughter.
"You ss-should have seen yy-your face, yy-you omg that ww-was priceless, ha ha ha ha." Spencer could barely get the sentence out through that laughter that was over taking him. I wanted to grin along with him but damn him for making me feel bad for hurting him. So, I walked to wear my duffle bag was and grabbed a towel off the rack next to the shower doors. After, quickly taking a shower and getting dressed, I made my way out of the locker room.
Spencer was waiting for me outside with a smirk on his face. I rolled my eyes at him and wanted to punch that smug look right off his face but that would only give him more to joke and laugh about.
"Mia, I'm proud of you little sis," Spencer said as he draped an arm around my shoulders giving me a half hug.
I smiled as I looked up at him forgiving him instantly. He was about 6"2' with broad shoulders, sandy blonde hair that was a little on the long side, in my opinion it made him look like a surfer boy because of his tan skin. He had soft chocolate brown eyes and he could always make you laugh, he just had that way about him. We weren't really brother and sister, he was dating my best friend Zoey and had been for the last 4 years. She was like a sister to me and when Spencer came into her life he accepted me as she did and that felt great.
I shrugged his arm off my shoulders and playfully punched his arm. "Why?" I asked as we continued to walk down the street.
"Well, because you managed to knock me down, duh!! I mean come on Mia, it's me and im kick ass." Spencer said while holding his arms out.
I just rolled my eyes at him and continued towards our house. Zoey, Spence and I were in college and didn't like the idea of living on campus so, we rented a house a few blocks away.
"I'm actually proud of you, Mia. You've grown a lot stronger and are able to better protect yourself. I'm happy for that it helps to know that when you just randomly take off, that you are able to take care of yourself, ya know?" Spencer had put a hand on my elbow to stop me from continuing on to the house. I looked at his face and realized that he actually meant it. I pulled him into a warm hug.
I looked at him and raised my eye brow. He looked at me with a frown on his face. I pushed him as hard as I could and darted away laughing, "last one home buys pizza!!!" I yelled over my shoulder. I didn't stop to see if he was following because I knew that he was, he hated when I challenged him to things and he lost. I heard him gaining on me as we neared the house, I waited until he was right behind me before putting on a last dash of speed toward our fenced in yard.
