You Kissed My Soul

Chapter 32

Aderyn Pov

“Oh! I am really relieved hearing this” I spoke in my phone as I prepared my bed.

“Yes! You better work out properly because belief me its really a big one and you will earn more than

you ever thought of” George spoke from the other line.

“Alright! I have actually started on my training. Goodnight now I need to sleep” I said as I disconnected

the call and kept the phone on the night stand before hoping onto the bed and covering myself with the

sheet.

George was the organizer and was a friend of mine. He informed me about that match in which I will be

taking part. The match which was supposed to be held on this week has been postponed to a month

more. That means I got lots of time to improvise on my muscles more.

I sighed and looked at the bed side towards my alarm clock. It read 11 O’ clock in the night. I lied down

on my back and closed my eyes hoping to get into sleep as soon as possible.

The beeping sound of my alarm woke me up. I was immediately on my feet aa I heard the alarm and

stretch myself for getting rid of the laziness as I made my way towards my bathroom to change.

Brushing my teeth and washing my face I changed into my black camisole and black tank top with

Reebok sports pant and my shoes and made my hair into a braid. I ran out of my house towards the

road for a jogging. Soon, I found myself pushing myself into a run.

By the time I stopped I was panting and huffing out air as beads of sweat began to form on my

forehead. But it was nothing compared to my daily workout.

I had more to do. When my breath came out in normal. I began to exercise more prominently. Crunch

ups, sit ups, boxing, even weight lifting to improvise more. Currently, I have reached back to my

backyard after that running session to work out using the props which I installed for my training. As

there were no personal coach or trainer to guide me, I had to do this all by myself.

It’s already been two and half an hour of me practicing. I had taken several breaks in the middle to

relax and then carried on my work being loyal to myself.

As I sipped my protein shake I felt as I was being watched. I turned around and looked towards the

road and towards the woods across the road but found no one. Finally, I shrugged the matter off

thinking I must be being paranoid.

“Aderyn come in now, its going to rain soon” Greta called for me and I nodded seeing the clouds

forming in the sky.

It’s been exactly a month now. I have been practicing really hard for the match but there is feeling

which keeps nagging my mind that I was being watched.

Probably, some opponent of mine thought to keep an eye on me wanting to know my moves. This was

normal actually. My opponents could go to any extent to make me loose. But I am better than that. I

always have a back up plan for if things could go wrong my strategy would help me survive.

But this stalking and keeping an eye thing is really cheap. It gets on my nerve and once I find out who it

was, I will make sure to break every bones on his body. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Anyways I should just focus more on my match now. Today is the day.

I took a good cold shower and came out of the bathroom wearing my bathrobe. I stood before the

mirror after dressing up for my day. I was wearing my track suit and sneakers. My hair was done into a

French braid neatly as I hated whenever my hair fell on my face disturbing me during the fight.

I took my bag in which I had kept my fighting clothes earlier and my boxing gloves. I took my protein

shake and took my car keys waving goodbye to Greta.

“Don’t hurt yourself too much. I am telling you I hate this all things that you are doing” she grumbled

while I sipped my drink.

“Wow! Thanks for your motivation Greta” throwing my sarcasm I walked out of my house towards my

Garage where I took my Jeep because Blush was out for servicing and drove off to “Battles”.

It was a underground fight club where matches are organised for fighters in every three year where one

can win heavy amount of cash prize.

I have been training for this match from last year. I have won many small matches were I won cash

prizes but this is different. This cash prize can Chang my whole life. I don’t need to fight any longer for

living. I could start my own business with the cash prize for living.

I sighed as I thought of the fighters that are going to take part today. The difficult part of this match is

that it is of one day. George has informed me that today all the fighters who are going to take part in

this match are coming from different part of the globe just to win. Hence each fighter has to fight three

opponents for clearing each round. The two finalist who will succeed to win all tgree rounds will play the

final fourth round against each other and the winner gets the cash while runner up will get a contract of

three years as a professional fighting coach.

I am just super excited as well as nervous. This is a Co fight. Which means both men and women can

take part. Yes! It’s going to be the first time ever that women will fight against men.

I don’t care about men but I know we women can show what we have got.

As I reached near my destination, I began to hear large crowds of fan and people cheering, music and

excitation.

“Gosh!” I muttered when I saw the huge crowd.

I had to park my Jeep inside the building where only the participants were allowed. I took out my ID and

George came for my guidance.

“They are so excited” I said as I pointed towards the crowd while George nodded smirking.

“What do you think babe? This is the biggest fight show ever” he spoke as he began to walk and I

followed him.

“Are you ready?” He asked to which I nodded.

“Are you sure you want to do this?” He questioned.

“Yes why?” I asked

“Because Aderyn those participants out there are not just some fighters. They are” he air quoted

“professional and fierce fighters” he finished.

I just nodded. He is saying this because he has never witnessed me fighting. I heard about this match

and I asked him to get me into this.

“Yeah I will manage” I muttered.

He looked at me as he stopped before a door with concern evident on his face. He was tall man with

black hair and black eyes. He had always this stubble on his face which he would never shave and

always in a tidy suite.

“Well this is your room. Get ready and you are third” he gave me my key and turned around to leave

but I stopped him.

“George!”

“Yeah?”

“How many fighters are there?” I asked

“33 and 10 are female fighters including you” he filled me with the information and I nodded.

“Best of luck for your fight” he wished and I smiled saying a quite “Thank you”.

I entered into my room. It was just a small room with lockers and bench and mirror. A bathroom was

also attached to the room. Quickly I changed into my red shorts and tank top. I wore my shoes and did

a quick warm up. Taking out my gloves I stated at it for some minutes and smiled when I thought where

I was now.

Life has brought me to a place where I never belonged. If I weren’t here then I would’ve been studying

Engineering or maybe law for my future but never this.

I heard people cheering which means the fight has already begun. Referee whistling and the ring.

I began to work on my breathing. As I do not know with whom I was going to fight I should not

underestimate anyone. Because who never know what your opponent has got.

There was a knock in my door and George came in rush “let’s go its your turn now” he said and I stood

up following him. My heart was hammering against my chest.

“Two Female fighters are already out of this match are you sure?” He questioned.

I just nodded.

“Alright! You are fighting with Rebecca in Ring no 3” he pointed towards the ring and I nodded getting it.

I waited till my name gets announced. The crowd was getting wild. People shouting and cheering. And

then I hear it “Alright people its time for our other fighters” and more cheering if people.

“From second wing Miss Rebecca Harper” the anchor announced and I heard people getting excited as

my opponent made her way towards the ring.

“And from wing one a have Miss uh Flame?” He called and I made my way out. People began to cheer.

I heard some “boo” sounds probably people were judging from my psychic.

I saw Rebecca inside the ring.

“Damn! she was tall too tall and bulky” I thought but I kept my composure calm and my expressions

neutral.

“Go back home babe you are not meant for fighting” I heard a guy shouting.

“Hey sexy! Wanna go out on a date?” I heard another.

I made my way towards the ring but a certain voice startled me “I believe upon you”.

That voice was so familiar. It made me stop on my tracks. I looked here and there searching for that

person but I didn’t find anyone.

“What happened? Are you scared baby girl?”

“Having second thoughts now?” I heard people mocking me to which I only ignored.

I composed myself but looked here and there again before going inside the ring.

“Damn! She looks even more taller from here” I thought.

Rebecca who was a blonde smirked at me and wore her gloves while I adjusted mine.

“Go back home kid this is not for you” she mocked me.

I just shrugged in reply.

“Alright you two ready?” The referee asked while we said our “Yes”.

“On the count of three” he announced.

People began to cheer.

“One!” I took my position

“Two!” Rebecca smirked at me

“Three!” I heard the ring and it began with Rebecca running towards me. And the next moment she was

down senseless.

It happened so quickly. She running towards me. Me punching right in her face and she falling in the

ground senseless.

Everyone stopped cheering and I heard quite “What the fuck” from astonished people.

“Did you see that man? She knocked her out with only one punch”

“Woah! What’s going on?”

“Is this even real?”

There was this comments and people whispering.

“Woah!” The anchor finally butted in.

I looked up towards the Big TV screen where my punch was being re winded.

“One! Two! Three...” the referee began to count while the people who were with Rebecca shouted for

her to get up.

“Winner!” The referee took my hand into the air.

People began to cheer and about in excitement. Looks like I gained a huge crowd for supporting me.

“Unbelievable! It was a such a small fight. I can’t believe it she knocked Rebecca out in just one blow”

the anchor commented.

I made my way out of the ring and passed George whose mouth was hanging open.

“Close it” I pointed as I passed him.

“Ladies and Gentlemen we have Flame going to second round now” I heard while I got inside my room.

It’s just the beginning. This is power unleashed.
