Noah’s P.O.V.
Though I am not a fan of this fighting, still, I was amazed to see his fighting skills. He smartly used his leaned body to quicken his pace and dozing off the assaults of his opponents. It was already 10 minutes passed, and still, The Thunder Storm was unable to touch the shadow fighter. The shadow fighter used his surrounding fiber walls to jump over his opponent several times. He was almost 2 feet shorter than the Thunder Storm. He was using Thunder Storm’s weight and height against him smartly. Suddenly, Thunder Storm changed his line of attack and double attacked him.
The Shadow fighter flew high due to the impact of the kick he faced and smashed his body against the cage wall loudly. There was a drop-dead silence for just a second or two, but then the crowd cheered loudly again. They all were shouting like madmen. They had thirst for blood in their voices.
It looked like he coughed hardly but nothing came out due to his face mask. I wondered why he put a mask here.
Then he stood up again and changed his stance.
“Now the real fight begins bro”, James shouted excitingly and I looked at him in disgust. What if the first kick the Shadow Fighter bear a moment ago injured him?
The Thunder Storm roared again like a wild beast and gritted his teeth murderously. The Shadow fighter was too small in comparison to him that we couldn’t able to see his expressions.
Suddenly, his close-up popped up on the screen above and there was a cold gaze in his eyes. He was totally unaffected from the Thunder Storm’s show off.
He started running in circles around Thunder Storm. The beast got confused from his action and tried to figure out Shadow Fighter’s next move.
Suddenly, like a perfect ninja fighter, he took a quick and long leap by taking a jump against the wall and hit his back of the head with a flying kick. It was looked like, he would attack from the front, but he moved his body at the behind in the air. The Thunder Storm balanced off and almost fell on the wall harshly. His side face collided with the wall badly. He must have some broken teeth by now.
The Shadow Fighter struck again and kicked him hard at the back of his right knee and Thunder Storm collided with the wall again. He lost his 2 teeth and coughed blood as his chest and head hit hard the wall this time.
But before, The Shadow Fighter hit him again, he regained his composure quickly and elbows the Shadow Fighter hard on his chest. It was very lethal. On the screen, I saw the pain on his naked part of the face. It seemed that he must have 2-3 broken ribs now.
“I don’t think he can make it today”, I shouted and James passed a creepy smile. “You are saying because you don’t know him. Just wait for a few minutes and watch. You will never regret this coming today here”, he said and I looked at him in disbelief.
David’s P.O.V.
She bore kick and elbow hit at the same point of her chest. I was sure that she had some ribs by now. Her mask looked wet around the mouth area. I wanted to take out her at an instant, but I couldn’t. It was against the rules. Once you get inside the arena, the only way out is to fight till your last breath.
Tears started building up in my eyes but I knew that she would make it today also. She was toying with the Thunder Storm. She intentionally gave him room to hit her. She was dozing off his attacks and kicking him hard here and there just to exhaust him. It seemed that her strategy was working now. The Thunder Storm started panting by now and was looking very irritated.
Suddenly, like a perfect gymnast, she did a perfect summersault in the air and kneed him hard at his Adam’s apple. He instantly vomited blood and fell down with his straight standing body on the floor at the same instant. His head hit hard the floor and he passed out. Blood was continuously flowing down from his mouth and his eyes were remained open in shock.
Steph landed on the floor safely on her feet and was looking somewhere in the crowd.
The Crowd was cheering loudly her name. She won the fight again. The referee opened the door and she instantly walked out and went towards her room in the back instantly. I didn’t understand what happened to her but I was sure that she was hurt and didn’t want to look weak.
I immediately headed towards her. The crowd was madly shouting her name. For them, she was the Shadow Fighter who was unbeatable. Yeah…. She was unbeatable. I am proud of her.
But also, I love my daughter and didn’t want to see her all injured but it made her sleep well at night. Why?????
I didn’t know.
Stephany’s P.O.V.
I saw him. I saw Noah in the crowd. He was directly looking at me. Our eyes met and I saw him gasped. I was mentally praying that he didn’t recognize me. I did what I thought was good at this moment. I felt that 2 of my ribs were broken due to the impact of his elbow kick. As soon as, the referee opened the gate of the cage, I directly headed towards my room.
“Steph…. Steph… wait”, I was almost running towards my room when I heard my father calling me.
I stopped in my path and looked back. He was coming towards me. I was massaging lightly my chest due to pain.
“Let’s go. You need to see the doctor right now”, he said while holding my free hand in his hand. I nodded and we both went towards the clinic. The organizers of these fights also had hired some doctors to treat minor injuries.
“You fought really well today. I was almost scared to death when I saw your mask wet”, he said to me and removed my mask from my face. My lower face was totally covered in the semi-dried blood.
He went pale for few moments and stopped in midway. He took out his handkerchief and gently rubbed against my chin, my mouth, and neck to clean the blood.
“You should not give him that room”, he said while removing the blood.
I was silent. I knew that I made him worried again. I purposely provide him that room just to boost his confidence that he could defeat me or better say could kill me and give me what I wanted and exactly the same thing happened.
He looked me injured and slowed down at his pace. After that, his kicks and punches were not so powerful as they were in the beginning. He was moving clumsily on his weak leg and I took the opportunity.
My father threw my mask in the bin and looked back carelessly and then I saw them again. Noah and James were coming towards my side.
I instantly grabbed my father’s hand and started running from there.
“Steph…. What happened… please slow down… you are hurting yourself…. Steph????? …. Steph?????... are you even listening to me”, my father almost shouted in frustration while I was dragging him with my full strength towards the exit so that I could escape from there. They couldn’t see me here.
