ASHLEY'S POV
"Are you afraid they would beat you?" Celine blurted.
"No, I'm not." I hesitated before answering.
"Then what are you waiting for?" the green-eyed lady asked.
"Fine, I will." I had to accept, and I knew I was making the wrong mistake, and judging from the way Dante looked at me, he didn't want me to fight either.
"Let's make it fair, Ashley. Pick any guard you wish to train with, and today's training is combat," Celine declared.
I knew I wasn't strong enough, so I picked one slim guard who I felt wasn't strong enough, and it was time to start.
I was handed a baton, and so was he, and the rule was very simple: throw your opponent on the ground several times until they quit.
All I had to do was not quit.
One of the guards served as the referee. I was fighting side by side with Celine and Dante, and in a second, I felt a baton hit my leg, and I was on the floor.
