Chapter 17
Alexander was like a machine, pummeling through the guys, every fight went like that until Mark, that actually took 5 seconds, instead of half a second. Shane lasted only a little longer, William lasted for about 20 seconds.
By the time it was my turn, I was dumbstruck. How were the fights over so fast?
I looked up at him, swallowing, "Wow, your good."
Alexander grinned, "So? Did I pass?"
I nodded, "Yeah, you passed."
He grinned, "Great, now, do I fight you or something?"
I shrugged, "If you want to."
He grinned, "All right, who will count us off?"
I thought, crap, what if I lose? What would happen? Would Adam be mad?
William walked up, "I'm counting down, you know the rules, 1 2 3 fight!"
Alexander, lunged, catching me in the stomach. Oh crap, ow. This was bad, this was really bad. He pulled his fist back again, I ducked, kicking his leg, trying to knock him off balance. He stepped out of the way, avoiding it.
He grinned, "How about we make a deal? If you lose, you have to take off your clothes, if I lose, you will get to chooses whatever you want to do to me."
I nodded, "Okay." I had to agree to that, or else it would be seen as weird. Crap, sigh. I hope I win.
I lunged forward and swung my fist at his stomach, contact, he grunted.
I pulled back and swung my leg at him, he grabbed it, crap, he tried to kick my other leg out from under me. I hopped up and jerked my leg out of his grip.
I swung my leg at his foot, I kicked it as hard as I could, he lost just a little bit of balance, the fight went on for a few more seconds before I could gain any ground in the fight, I kicked his arm as hard and fast as I could, his guarded, his left more than his right.
He grunted, I slammed my fist into his side, hard. I did it again and again, each time harder than the last. On the last hit, he moved away, I missed, I punched the air instead, crap, he took this opportunity to hit my side, ow, he pulled back again, I ducked this time and slammed my foot into his heel, he stumbled a little, I slammed my fist into his side, then stuck my foot out and hit his heel, he lost even more balance, I kicked him one last time and he fell.
I gasped for breath, that was an intense fight, I looked at Alexander, offering him a hand up, "That was a good fight, Alexander."
Alexander nodded, "Yeah, it was, also, call me Alex, you sound like my mother when you call me Alexander."
I said, "Alright, Alex, I need some water."
I walked over to the water fountain, taking a few mouth fulls of water I sat down, Mark, Shane, and William walked over to me.
Shane grinned, "Dude, that was an awesome fight."
Mark nodded, "Yeah man, he took us all down within a few seconds, you actually won against him."
William offered a small smile, "Nice job, Adam." His smile was so nice, I think I melted a little.
Clearing my throat, "Thanks, guys."
Alex came over to me, "So, I lost the deal, you can ask me to do whatever you want."
I shrugged, "I don't really have anything I want you to do." Then I thought for a few seconds, "Actually, I do have something, come to school more often now that you are part of the Martial Arts Club."
Alex nodded, "Alright if that is what you want, I'll come to school more often."
I smiled, "Good to hear." I got up, "Hey Mark, want to come over to study at my place? I need help in science."
Mark smiled, "Sure, dude. Let's go after the club ends."
I looked at the clock, 3:00, that was an hour and a half later, "Alright, later than."
After the club ended and studying with Mark did as well, I went to review my notes again, sighing, I reviewed my notes thinking, I'm going to ace this test.
I took a shower and went to bed, I read for a few hours before yawning and rubbing my eyes, I reach over my nightstand to click off the lights. I thought about the new friend I made, before passing out.
And thus, ended my day.
