The Ace

"You must be Ace.." She said quietly. He smirked and tightened the tape on his hands. She watched closely and examined his large somewhat bony hands that have taken one too many hits.

"That'd be me." He said with a dazzling smile. She craned her neck to look up into his dark brown eyes, his 6'2 figure was towering over her small 5'3 body. "Hop in the ring." He instructed after effortlessly jumping over the ropes and putting his gloves back on his hands. Her eyes bulged out of their sockets.

"Sorry what?" She asked. He chuckled to himself.

"Come on, we need to get some muscle on those bones." He stated as he waited for her to get in the boxing ring. She debated over her options: leave now and snuggle in bed at home, or get into the ring to her potential death. She pondered for a minute before hesitantly stepping towards the ring.
