chapter three

Kc's pov:::

You know that moment where you are having a good dream? And your phone starts ringing over and over, waking you up from that amazing dream, ending up not remembering what it was about after you wake up, sitting there trying to figure out what it was about but drawing a blank? Well yeah, this is me, waking up to my phone ringing, opening my eyes I groan, grabbing my phone looking at the time, it was about 4 pm, dang.

Getting up I grab my bag while answering my phone "hello, your in reach of a grumpy kc, what can I do for you?" I said sarcastically. I heard a chuckle on the other end "well kc, do you want your chance to get back in the ring?" A male voice said, Mikey. "Heck yeah, when and where Mikey?" I said kinda excited, walking out of the classroom, I go to my locker taking my helmet out then slamming the door closed.

"Well tonight, 10 o'clock, in the pit by the club sundown" he said, I could pretty much see his grin in his voice. "I'll be there" I said "well see you there ghost reaper" Mikey said, I smile looking down, I haven't been called that name in a while "you too" I said "wait, I gotta mention something, wear your mask" Mikey said "copy that" I said hanging up.

God I missed being in the ring, the rush, feeling some kind of power against the person your fighting. I climb into my bike, putting on my helmet and headed home to get ready.

Usually before a fight I would do a few hours of exercises for warm ups, changing into leggings and a sports bra, my running shoes, I put my hair in a high ponytail, blaring music from my speakers, I had my clothes laid out on my bed, my mask in a black box with a big X on it.

For the next few hours I spent getting ready, then taking a shower after, putting my hair in a tight messy bun making sure no hair would fall out of the bun. Putting on my pants, socks, shoes, tank top, deoterant, then my jacket, the hood covers up to my eyes and my hair.

The last things I grabbed was my mask, I put it in my backpack with a towel, water bottle, and my hand wraps.

Looking at the time I had a hour and a half until I needed to be there, I decided to just go since it would take me some time to get there and get ready, check out the compatitions, the groups. Leaving my apartment after locking up I go down stairs to my bike, starting it up, putting on my helmet and leaves, driving down to the pit.

Parking half a block away, I look around to make sure nobody is around, I take my helmet off, putting on my mask, then pulling on my hood over my head. Putting my helmet in the side bag of my motorcycle, I head down the street to the pit. Walking to the door, a Buffy guard guy stood outside, with a clipboard in hand, a pin behind his ear. "Name?" He said "ghost reaper" I said in my deep voice, he looked down at his clipboard, taking his pin looking for my name then nodding, opening the door for me "go on in ghost reaper" he said.

I walk passed him, into the pit, it was like a huge underground garage, with a bar, lounging spots, private rooms, etc. I walk through the crowd, listening to the yells, shouts, laughing, looking at the ring there was two men fighting, one got the upper hand, the other could barely hold his own to the man. I frown, looking away I walk to the back room were the lockers are at for the fighters, walking in, there was already men in there, going to my locker I open it, taking out my water bottle and wraps slamming the door shut right after, sitting on the bench I take the wraps and wrap my hands, taking a few sips of my water, putting the bottle in the locker too.

"Dude that's reaper" a male voice said, I pretend I'm not listening and focused on adjusting my wraps. "For real? In the flesh?" Another man said, I knew they couldn't see the look on my face, because of the mask. "Yep, in the flesh, the mask so goes with his title, nobody knows nothing on him, no name, no age, not even what his face looks like" the first man said "dang" the other guy said "yeah right, he never lost a fight, a total ghost reaper, all the guys he fought in the past all ended up in the hospital" the first guy said.

I start to block them out, getting up walking out of the locker room, I find a good spot somewhere where I can watch, leaning up against the wall, my arms crossed I watch the fight before me end fast. " Hey ghost reaper! Your here, good, your up next! You ready?" Mikey asked, standing by me, I nod. "Good, I'll let the guys know" he said walking off to the ring, a few minutes later the guy with I mike hopped into the ring announcing the winner, bets and who was up next.

"Okay people, our personal favorite, has come home for a fight, let's give a shout for REAPER!!!!!!" He yelled, then the room of people started to yell out with him. Pushing myself off the wall I walk to the ring, grabbing the top rope I jump over it, into the ring. Throwing my fist up in the air, making the room get louder.

"Okay, okay guys, let's announce his fighter, he's been here for a while so here's, THE BLACK DOG!" He yelled, the room once again started to yell again. I look around for the guy, he climbed into the ring, he was big, but I could see his weak spots, like a open book. "Now let's start setting bets at the bar!" He said before turning to both of us, "now you ready?!" He asked both of us, I nod getting in my fighting position.

The black dog nodded as well looking at me, "ok you know the rules, ghost reaper, don't kill the guy ok?" He asked, I chuckled and nodded, the crowd laughed and hooted. "Let's get started!" He yelled before getting out of the ring. Turning back to the guy in front of me, I had about three seconds to move before he lunched at me, he went to punch me in the face, I dodged under his arm, grabbing it, pulling it with me as I turn around him, standing behind him. I twisted his arm back behind his back, he yelled out. I sent a left hook to his stomach, the a right to his face, getting some distance between us.

He glared at me as he stumbled back, holding his shoulder, I smirked going a left, as he seen that and tried to grab me, I jumped a right, grabbing his other arm, flipping him over and sitting on his chest, holding his arms down with my knees. I started to punch him hard in the face a few times, until he kneed me in the back, I rolled forward off him stopping on my knees, giving him the chance to get up, I looked at him.

He charged at me, I slide under his legs and kicked him in the back, getting up, I clunched my fists in a ball, he turned around looking at me and growled "stop playing around!" He yelled, I chuckle and say in a deep voice "okay, I'll get serious now" I said grinning. He started to throwing punches at me, I dodged each one, giving a hard blow into his side, making him help and hold onto that spot giving me time to punch him again.

I kept hitting him in his weak spot until he gave up, I backed up from him throwing my fist up in the air, yelling caught my attention from the crowd, I smiled "we got our winner! REAPER!!!" the announcer said in the mike after climbing into the ring, grabbing my wrist holding it up as would a winner get showing who won.

I jumped out the ring, met with Mikey, he gave me my winnings "good job GP" he said, I nod a thanks, getting my winnings about to leave when something, more like someone caught my eye. The breathe caught up in my throat, my eyes widened.

Oh crap.

There, sitting all high and mighty sat, Xavier, the school bad boy, with his friends sitting around him watching the fight in the ring, a beer in hand, taking small sips before smiling at something a guy beside him said. Hey, I'm no stalker, I'm just observing okay?

Turning around I go grab my stuff out of the locker room before putting my money in my bag before heading out before Xavier See's me, well not me because I'm wearing a mask, but yeah you know what I mean. Turning away I walk out of the pit and back to my motorcycle and headed home.

later on that night I was laying in bed, with a thought in my head, the same one that has been stuck with me for a few hours now since I got home, to why Xavier was in the pit. eh it was none of my business, I mean its not like I like the guy! I mean it, I mean there was a small spark that has yet to spark, 3% chance of sparking. rolling over on my stomach, I think harder enough to give myself a headache. groaning I shoved my face in my pillows.

hearing my phone vibrate on my nightstand, I roll over on my side to grab my phone. unlocking my lock screen, a message popped up from Xavier.

Xavier: hey short stuff.

rolling my eyes, I mentally groan, is it to late to show that I didn't see it? NOPE! tossing my phone on my bed, I try to get comfortable again, but Xavier seems to know i'm ignoring him, because he texts me again. sighing I grab my phone again to see what he said because he was annoying the heck out of me.

Xavier: stop ignoring me, I know you seen my message kc.

kc: what is so important that you needed to text me at 1 am?

Xavier: oh nothing, just wanted to talk to you.

kc: ok ew, text me not sext me idiot!

Xavier: wait what?

kc: bye Xavier!

Putting my phone on charge on my nightstand I roll over looking out my open window, that boy drives me crazy. deciding to just go to sleep, I close my eyes and let sleep take over.

Waking up the next morning was swell, because I didn't want to get up. sighing, I pull my lazy butt up out of bed and to the bathroom to do my morning business, after brushing my teeth, hair and such I walk out of the bathroom, to the kitchen to make something to eat. I make some eggs, pancakes and bacon. setting my plate on the table, I sit down and eat my food, then wash everything I used and putting it away walking back to my room I get dressed. my phone starts to ring, I grab it off my nightstand, I answer the call without looking at who was calling me. "hello?" I said, I instantly regret answering it when I heard who was on the phone "hey, get dressed in something to go swimming in, i'll be picking you up in thirty minutes" and then he hung up. I didn't even get a word in! jeez that moron, I hate him sometimes.

Getting my bikini out, I put it on and put a tank top and shorts over it with some sandals. I put my hair in two French braids and put on my leather jacket, collecting my phone, keys and sunglasses I head down to the parking lot. just as I got to my motorcycle, Xavier pulled in, getting on my motorcycle, I kick the kickstand up, then starting up my motorcycle and backed out beside Xavier. "where to?" I asked, "you'll see, just follow me" he said and started to drive out the parking lot. I followed after him.

A while later, we made it to our destination, parking in the parking lot beside Xavier I turn off my bike and put the kickstand out than climbing off my bike. "so this is where you wanted to take me? the beach?" I said looking out at the beach, Xavier came over to stand beside me "yep, I tried telling you last night but you side 'text me not sext me', I mean if you wanted to be like that we could of have sexted" Xavier said with a grin on his face. I groan and walk onto the beach away from that pervert.

"your nasty" I said "hey we can get down and dirty if you want" Xavier kept going, biting my cheek I try to ignore him but that made my skin crawl. shivering put my stuff down on a table, I kick off my sandals and unbutton my shorts "jeez, you wanna do it here? I didn't know you swing that way kc, I mean it's not like I care that we do it in public-" Xavier was saying, but I stopped him there "oh my god shut up you dirty pervert! jeez you get on my nerves" I said take off my short and tank top leaving me in my bikini.

Ignoring Xavier I walk out to the water away from him, while he laughed so hard for some reason, crazy perv he is. the water went passed my knees pushing against me, I smile at the feeling of the cold water. deciding to go in deeper I walk until the water was just under my breasts.

Sighing, I look up at the bright, blue sky, I felt at peace for once in a long while, well until Xavier decided to sneak up on me, pick me up and throw me off a few feet away from him. I curse his name before I land in the water, after a few seconds I come up for air, taking a big breath, I cough up water and glared at Xavier. "oooh such a death glare you got there kc" Xavier chuckled.

"dickhead" I mumble, splashing water at him, he covered his face, then splashed water back at me, then it turned into a big water fight, then the ocean decided it had enough with us and knocked us both down under the water. swimming up for air I cough again before chuckling. "well that was fun" Xavier said "how is getting knocked over by a wave fun?" I asked serious.

Xavier shrugged, "I don't know, it just is ok" Xavier said, I roll my eyes and turn away from him walking out off the water back to the table to sit down for a bit. until, once again Xavier still didn't get enough because he decided to pour water on my head.

Screaming I jump up and chase Xavier, until he ends up tripping, then me tripping over him, making me land on top of him "owwww" I said opening my eyes looking down, my face was a few inches away from Xavier's, he was looking up at me. we didn't move for a while, I snapped out of my trance and got up, helping him up.

Once we were both on our feet, we didn't say anything for a while, just walking in silence. "hey kc, you got something on your leg" Xavier said, I look down at my leg to see nothing there, then I felt a sudden stinging on my butt and Xavier running away, I felt my face heat up "XAVIER! you mother trucker get over here!" I yelled.
