"Go to hell!" She spat out.

I could feel my lips curling into a smirk as I advanced towards her.

"Oh I will, sweetheart, and I'll make sure I drag you down there with me."

"Don't come any closer, or I'll shoot." She warned but even as she spoke she edged back slowly.

"Then shoot me."

Demons From The Past

My breath came out in pants, my black tank top was drenched in sweat and my whole body ached. I could feel the adrenaline pumping through my veins.

/"Is that the best you got?/" I said in between gasps as I got up on my feet once more.

We'd been training since the past two hours. Nate was teaching me self-defense and from the deep scowl on his face it was pretty clear he was not impressed by my tactics so far.

I hadn't been able to successfully dodge even one of his hits up until now.

/"Again./" He said in his cool tone, /"This time try to duck on time, you need to be quick./" He instructed.

He aimed a punch at me again but this time I was ready for him, I ducked deftly and bought my knee to his side taking him off balance. Before he had time to recover I turned to face him and aimed a kick to his front.
