I started hitting him. I threw out combinations that I made up and made no sense at all. I was just about to kick him in the jaw when he punched me in the jaw hard. I fell but quickly got up and wiped the blood from my mouth. I punched Hunter in the gut that he doubled over and then I lifted my foot into the air and let it dropped it wasn’t a hard kick but it did what it was suppose to do he fell.
I got on top of him and started punching him. I got up a minute later and circled around him. A lot of people were cheering for me. Hunter got up. He had a bloody nose.
The round ended and I went to my corner.
Jasmine cleaned my mouth then put my mouthguard back in.
It was time for the final round.
I went to the middle of the ring.
‘FIGHT!!’
We were hitting each other so hard that by the time the fight was halfway through we were both pretty banged up.
Hunter punched me inn my jaw so hard I fell. I was so weak that I struggled to get up. Hunter was about to get on top of me when I rolled and then did a handstand.. I don’t know why I did a handstand but I did.
I pushed off the ground with my hands and I collided with Hunter sending both of us to the ground. I got to my knees while Hunter stood up. He was about to do his signature move. I made a quick choice. I stood up and took my mouthguard out and threw it out of the ring. I held up my hands and set my feet firmly on the ground. I saw Jasmine and Rachel look at me as if I was stupid but I had a reason why I did it. I let Hunter punch me in the jaw and that made me fall. I stayed on the floor while the referee counted down. When he got to two I spun on the ground and tripped Hunter but not before kicking him really hard in the gut. We were both on the ground not able to get up.
The referee counted down to three and it was declared a tie. I got onto my knees and breathed heavily. I wiped my mouth were more blood had emerged and was now dripping onto the floor. I stood up. Hunter stood up to and offered his hand for a handshake.
I didn’t even bother with it. I went back to my corner where Jasmine had my mouthguard. As I walked as if I never got beat up because I felt no pain. It was strange but I think it was because of my adreneline. I got the water bottle and drank it all in one drink cause I was really thirsty.
I went to the back where I sat down on the floor and put my head in my arms.
I lifted my head after a while and got up. I was about to leave when Lacy stopped me.
‘Demon I never meant for you to get hurt.’
‘It’s all right Lacy, I was sad at first but I got over it when the incident at the hill happened. I get that you and Hunter are together now and now there’s nothing in the way to make you two official. I hope you’re happy.’
I left before I would cry in front of Lacy. It was true what I said but now ever since I broke up with Hunter every time I see him or hear his name tears come rolling down my cheeks without knowing.
I walked aimlessly through the camp and found a little secret clearing at the edge of the woods. I laid down and watched the sky. I saw storm clouds gathering and before I could get up rain started pouring down.
I got up fast and left the clearing. I went to the dining hall where I saw everyone was running too and since I still couldn’t run I walked in the pouring rain. I saw Jasmine and Rachel waiting for me under the roof.
We went in and sat with the guys.
‘Demon you know you’re soaking wet’
‘I know but it’s only because I can’t run yet I can only walk so I walked for ten minutes in the pouring rain. You try it and see if you get soaked wet.’
‘I’ll take your word for it.’
We all laughed, including me.
I was feeling better now.
‘So what are we gonna do till this rain lets us leave this place packed with everyone who goes here.’ Newt said.
‘Hey is that a ladder over there that leads up to the top?’ Rachel asked.
‘Yep. Why?’ Simon said.
‘Cause I’m gonna show you why people are afraid of me.’
Rachel went over to the ladder and started climbing. At the top she went onto the support bars.
‘Hey come on up it’s fun.’ Rachel shouted to us.
No one made a move so I got up and climbed the ladder and sat next to Rachel.
‘This is fun.’ I said.
‘Wanna jump off?’
‘Are you crazy? If we jump we die dumbass.’
‘it was just a suggestion.’
‘Hey you girls get down from there!’ the director shouted to us.
We both flicked him off. We high-fived each other and laughed.
‘Get down from there now it’s not safe up there.’
‘that’s the point.’ I shouted.
‘get down now or you’ll find yourselves packing to go home.’
We frowned then made our way to the ladder but then there was a creaking sound. I turned around to face Rachel and before I knew it the beam under her fell and she started falling until I grabbed her arm. I was on my stomach holding onto her with one arm while my other arm was holding onto a beam nearby so I don’t fall with her.
Rachel swung there. With all the strength I had left in me I pulled Rachel up next to me. She got off the beams as soon as I pulled her up but I lagged behind cause she took all my strength from me.
When I finally got down I went over to Rachel where she was with the guys, and Jasmine.
‘What the hell is wrong with you?’ I said.
‘Nothing.’ she muttered.
‘Then why the hell did you go up there?’
‘Hey you went up there too.’
‘Just incase you fell. I have at least a chance to save you from falling to your death.’
‘Hey don’t get mad at me for my decisions what about you? You chose to go up there. You were the one who made friends with me. You were the one who got sent here so stop blaming me for anything.’ Rachel yelled at me.
Everyone was watching us.
‘If it wasn’t for my brother I wouldn’t be here.’
‘Well then, why don’t you get out of here cause I’m the toughest one here and I can kick your ass all the way back home.’
‘If you were so tough then you will be able to stand up against me in a fight, if you were tough enough you’ll know when to stop pushing me.’ I yelled into her face. My face was only inches apart and my eyes were full of anger.
‘You think you’re tough but you’re not you are not tough. Tough people wouldn’t care what people think of them. Tough people could care less if they hurt someone.’
‘What makes you so tough? All I see is a pathetic wimp.’
I grabbed a chair and threw it at the nearest wall which was ten feet away from us.
‘Who’s tough now?!!’
I stormed out of there. I didn’t want anything to do with anybody. I’m sick and tired of all the crap I’ve had to dealt with since I got here. I went back to my room and packed all my stuff. Into one duffel bag. I packed clothes, medical supplies, food, water, and personal belongings.
I got my coat then went on a little hike. It stopped raining and nobody was out yet so it was my time to move. I ran up the trail and after a good ten yards I slowed down to a walk.
I walked up the muddy trail. It was a good thing I put on my rubber boots before I left and put my sneakers in my duffel. I got to the top of the hill. I looked at the view.
I went down the side and continued going. I kept on walking until I saw a mysterious hole in the ground. I knelt next to the edge and looked down. It was too dark inside so I got out my extra strength flashlight, I shined the light into the hole and what I saw surprised me.
In the hole was a secret tunnel. The tunnel was dark and ominous and I saw a shadow in the tunnel. I shined the light into the tunnel and then I heard footsteps running. I jumped into the hole and followed the heavy footsteps. I ran after them.
I ended up at the end of the tunnel. Suddenly someone grabbed me from behind. I struggled in the strangers grip.
‘Who are you?’
‘What do you think you’re doing down here?’ a guy asked. He sounded like he was seventeen.
‘I’m running away from that infuriating camp.’
He let go and I spun around to face him. Even though it was dark I was absolutely bewildered. He was the hottest guy I ever saw next to Hunter. He stared at me too. I realized I was staring at him so I looked away and picked up my flashlight which I dropped when he grabbed me.
I started walking back to the opening of the tunnel. He followed me. We walked in silence. When we got to the opening I climbed the muddy side to the top. He followed me.
‘Why are you following me?’ I finally asked breaking the silence.
‘To make sure you get back safely these parts aren’t safe after it just rained.’
‘I’m not going back I’m sick and tired of all the shit that I’ve dealt with since I got to that mother fuckin camp.’
‘It can’t be that bad.’
‘Oh you have no clue.’ I sat down on the nearest rock. I looked down at the ground. He knelt in front of me and lifted my chin up I looked into his eyes.
‘Nothing can probably make you break, you seem like a strong confident, tough, brave, girl. Go back there and be who you are.’
‘I can’t be who I am. I can’t’ I said with a shaky breath.
‘Who you are is an angel.’
‘Who I am is a demon.’ I said closing my eyes.
‘Why would you think that?’
‘Cause of how I act, cause of who I am Demon Night.’
‘That doesn’t mean you have to be a demon you can chose who you want to be.’
‘It’s not that easy for me. I am not that strong, tough, confident, brave, girl. I am a fearful, angry, depressed girl. I just broke up with my boyfriend after finding out that he was cheating on me, I am angry at my brother for telling my parents I can fight, I am depressed because I don’t know who I am anymore, I thought I knew who I was but now I don’t. I feel like I’m nobody.’ Tears started rolling down my cheeks.
He wiped them away with his thumb.
‘You are a somebody, you’re just having trouble finding who you are.’
He let go and I stood up. He stood up too. I
