Boom…Boom…Boom…BOOM. Clang
That was the last of the warm ups before the match began. There were a few people spectating the warmups, mainly the ones I was paying attention to was Ai, Ichigo and his wife. There were also the main sponsors of the arena there but I didn't really care about them. They were all looking forward to this fight as it was the fight that had gained the most public attention when it was announced. It had garnered over 20 million dollars in sponsors, Ads and bets.
There were over twenty thousand tickets sold for the match and the entire stadium was filled with people, there was also going to be around ten million who were going to be watching live from home. That total was going to be the biggest fight that had been live this year and was going to be watched either live or in the stadium by the top fighters of every country, I know that the number one and three from Japan is here as well as the number one fighter from Ireland, England, USA, Russia, Greece and France was going to be their.
We spent about twenty minutes after warmups talking to our coaches, well he did anyway, along with anyone we wanted to before the match began. As he was talking to his coaches I walked over to Ai who was ecstatic about the match, I spoke with her for about half the time and then talked to the other people I knew here like Ichigo. After the twenty minutes were up it was time for the match to begin, my opponent went out and did his little introduction and afterwards so did I. (I'm not good at describing how they went out but I'm working on it)
As the referee made his way to the ring me and my opponent started to study each other, he had an interesting build, he had a huge upper body and a not small lower body but definitely not a proportional lower body. He had a pretty decent aura around him, you can tell he was stronger than my first opponent who was the strongest fighter I've fought so far. Just the way he stood their you could tell that he knew what he was doing.
POV Andrew Zong
My opponent is not a big guy, probably one hundred and fifty pounds at least, he had a very proportionate build but even then he had this aura around him that just screamed power.
POV Ai (Warm Ups)
Bang…Bang… Bang…Bang. Clang
As I'm watching James do his warm up before his fight, I started to think of how technically I'm not supposed to be back here as I'm not anyone important. Besides the movie I did for James I don't have any real gigs or anything. But since I'm friends with James I was allowed to come back here, Mr ichigo and his wife were able to come back here because they were sponsored by James.
James was really the only person I've met that was neutral with me, most of the people I've met have either been using me for my looks or for their personal gain. The only ones that I can tell actually care about me besides James is Mr. Ichigo and his wife. They took me in when I didn't really have too much, they taught me how to be an idol and stood by my side.
Then came the time when Mr Ichigo introduced me to James. I was expecting a spoiled brat who didn't know how to do anything because he always got what he wanted, well I guess that's kind of true that James is rich and gets pretty much anything he wants but that's because he has the merit and power to do so.
Like there was one time we were hanging out and I found a necklace I liked but was way out of my price range, it cost one hundred thousand yen which is around three months of work for me right know. But when James saw I liked the necklace he picked it up, put it on me, walked away and went and paid for it leaving the store clerk a tip of fifty thousand.
By the time I had stopped thinking, James had finished his warm ups and was coming over to talk to me. We then proceeded to talk for a few minutes before he had to talk to other people.
POV James (Arena)
Whistle!!!
Boom Andrew threw a left hook as I dodged to the left side and hit him in the stomach with a knee before proceeding jump up and do a one handed handstand of his head before falling down knocking him out with my foot on the way down using gravity to my advantage. And just like that the fight was over which to be honest was a little bit of a let down as I was expecting at least a little better from him.
POV after interviews and things.( James)
As I was heading back to my house I was talking to Ai who was with me as we were planning to hang out since the fight didn't take very long to finish. My phone started to ring as we were pulling into the driveway.
'Hello' asked James. 'Hello, this Cadre Anderson from the international fighting committee, is this James Lee.'
'Yes sir it is' answered James. 'Yes thank you for your time, I've been asked to invite you to join the international fighting tournament where the top ten fighters of the world will participate that will last for the next three years.' Said Mr Cadre. 'Yes sir I would like to join, but I would like to know if I would still be able to visit people here in japan.' Asked James. 'Yes sir you will, there will be a three week break between each fight so that you can visit family or whatever you want.' Answered Mr Cadre.
After that we finished setting everything up and I scheduled a flight for next Saturday. What was that about? asked Ai. I was just invited to the biggest fighting tournament in the world. And I will be away for a while but I will be able to visit every once in a while.
After that we hung out for the next week, as Ai was there to see me off.
Have fun and return safely okay? Ai asked. I'll be fine and I'll be back before you know it and we can still talk over the phone. James answered.
