Me and My Leg

Da Ming is still glaring at me. He stands up properly and wipes his blood away from his sight and jaw.

"WHAT A TERRIFIC PERFORMANCE!!! AND WE STILL CAN SEE TO THE NEXT ROUND!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!"

Moderator no. one.

I can't hear any noise or surrounding sounds. I choose not to listen, or maybe my ears are not functioning.

HA...HA...HA.

'Breathe...'

"THE THIRD ROUND BEGINS!!!"

Moderator no. two.

Da Ming and I run to each other after the bell is hit, with our fists, and we lock our arms. I quickly turn myself to his back and use another arm to hit him in his spine with my sharp elbow. He quickly turns to face me and raises his leg to kick me in the face. I fly away, almost falling off the stage.

"Cough...cough...ha..."

I blink my eyes and try to focus my sight again while my hands are lying on the floor.

Then I feel my nose running. I touch it to see, and it's red blood.

Fuck.

"HER NOSE IS BLEEDING NOW!!"

Moderator no. one.

"!!!!!"

He runs to me again, spinning with his arms and throwing a fist down on my face. I fastly slide forward and spin my body up by using my back to support and raise both my legs and attack him at his stomach.

"Arg!!"

I quickly move away and let him fall to the floor.

"REIZE STEALS HIS MOVES!!!! I COULDN'T BELIEVE THAT SHE CAN DO IT LIKE HIM!"

Moderator no. two.

Da Ming gets up again and looks stunned that I use his technique to hit him. He slides his right foot to the back and shows his left palm toward me with his right fist on his waist.

I step forward almost to the center, and then he moves his arms and legs flowy and aims low. I raise my palm to follow the hit of his attacks and push him out again and again, but he keeps moving forward.

"REIZE'S NEW FIGHTING STYLE SURELY CAN DEFENSE DA MING'S TRADITIONAL FIGHT!!!!"

Moderator no. one.

He swipes and kicks, swipes and punches. I push away and hit, pull in, and hit to the side. He swipes and punches, and I make his arm away, pull him in, and use my elbow to attack under his chin. He turns himself 360 degrees with the kick. Then, I decided to jump over while folding my body to block the attack under me, extend my body straight, and hit his back with both legs.

His face attacks the floor, and he quickly grabs my left leg before I pull away. He turns his body to me and pulls my leg, making me fall to the ground, and he gets up while holding my left leg and twists hard.

"ARGH!!!"

I scream.

"!!!!"

"DA MING!!! BROKE HER LEG!!!!!!"

Then he releases my leg, and it falls as gravity. I crawl away from him.

'ROELLE....ROELLE!!!!'

"FUCK..."

I curse out and put my forehead on the floor. I close my eyes and try to bring myself together.

'ROELLE!!'

DON'T GET OUT!!

'I'M GOING TO KILL HIM!!'

WAIT!!

I turn my body to see him.

"Ha!"

And he's about to raise his fist at me. I roll my body before he finishes me.

"SEEMS LIKE THIS FIGHT IS PERSONAL!!"

Moderator no. two.

"HA...HA"

I am panting heavily.

Cover my leg, cover my leg, Xinnn!

Then Xin spreads out to my left leg and holds it tight, forming my leg into a black and gray color all over in a lightning line around my nerves.

I push myself up from the floor with my hands and stand on my right leg.

"CLAPPPP!!!!!!"

Then, the audience cheers me up with only their hands.

He glares at me hesitantly and shifts his eyes to his owner again.

"ROELLEE!!"

Then I hear the familiar voice. I try to look, and it's the man wearing the cap beside Dr. Zhen.

"ROOOELLEE!!"

He calls me again.

"Aven?"

He's here.

"!!"

Then I quickly turn to the man before me, who is throwing a fist at me again. I tilt my head and push his fist away while I grab his pants and turn my body back to him, throwing him up in the air while I stand on one leg. And push him to the edge of the stage, and his back hits the sharp edge of it.

"THUG!"

I drag my left leg, pushing my energy to my right leg and using my left toe to touch the floor to walk ahead.

"..."

The silence of the audience.

"Arg!"

Then Da Ming turns his body, pushes up, uses his knees to support him, and gets up.

"Ptui!"

He spits his blood out of his mouth.

He's tough as hell.

"Fuck it..."

I say it out loud.

Then, I stop limping, twist my body to the side, and let my left leg, which Xin is trying to hold my pain, to the front.

"Come and get me."

I tell him.

"You say yourself."

Da Ming.

Da Ming runs to me, pushes himself up, and double swirls his body, straightening up his right leg in the air over my head. I quickly bend my body, put my hands on the floor, turn full circle, lift my legs up, straighten my right leg, and kick him under his chin before his heel hit me. And land on one leg.

His body flies back and falls to the ground. He's about to get up. I see his mouth is bleeding. I push myself to him by turning a somersault with one leg. I quickly put my hands on the floor and turn a half circle while giving a little push from my right foot to bring my body up. Then, I swing back my right foot to kick at his jaw.

His body falls to the side with his head and hits the floor. I hurriedly sit on him and grab his face to face me.

"XIN!"

I call him, and he loses himself on my left leg and slips out behind my back.

"!!?"

Da Ming tries to look at me but sees my shadow behind. I see the reflection of Xin in Da Ming's eyeballs, the big dark form with light blue eyes shining through.

I raise my fist, put my elbow to the back, and then Xin sprints himself to my arms and covers my entire fist. I can feel the dark blue color through my body.

"THUG!!!!"

Then, I hit him right in the face.

"BZZZZ BZZZZ!!!"

The blue lightning is spreading around his face, my arms, and all around the stage.

The bell is hit.

"..."

The silence stays silent.

I get up with one leg and limp out of his body.

"Ha..."

I sigh out loud.

"AND THAT'S IT!!!!!!!"

Moderator no. two.

"SHE'S WIN!!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!!!! WHAT A MATCH EVERYBODY!!!!"

Moderator no. one.

"ROELLE!!!!"

Mr. Laith, Coach, Emris, Raden, and even two team members run to the stage and climb up to me.

And Mr. Laith holds me up immediately.

"You did it! You did it!…Roelle...my Roelle. Hehehe. "

Mr. Laith.

"Huh....haa."

I pant.

"You're fucking win!!!"

Coach.

"Hurt… hurt... Mr. Laith."

I lightly tell him.

"I'm sorry… your leg!!…and blood…I'll take you to the doctor!"

Mr. Laith.

"WOOOOOOOO!!!!!"

"YAYYYYY!!!!!"

And the audience goes wild.

"Ha..."

Then, my body collapses to the ground.

"Roelle!!"

Mr. Laith.

"I take her to the doctor."

Emris tries to hold my body, but Mr. Laith grabs his hand first.

"I take her."

Mr. Laith.

"Laith..."

Coach calls Mr. Laith and turns his head to Dr. Zhen, who is walking to the stage with Aven.

"Aven..."

I call him, and I'm about to crawl to him, but Emris holds my body up and carries me off the stage.

"Wait...please..."

I stop Emris.

He lets me down, and I use my right foot to balance myself. I look at Aven while he's crying his eyes out. Look right at me.

Mr. Laith comes in and looks at Dr. Zhen.

"..."

Dr. Zhen slowly offers his hand to him.

Then Mr. Laith shakes his hand with hatred eyes.

"Aven."

I call him, and he runs to me and hugs me tight.

"AH!!"

I cry from the pain.

"I'm sorry..."

He tells me.

"It's okay..."

I tell him.

Emris comes in between us, holds me up again, and carries me properly.

"You need to go see the doctor."

Emris.

"But..."

"Laith will take care of him... he needs to talk with that mother fucker too."

Emris explains.

"Mr. Laith..."

I call him.

"I'll take care of it..."

He tells me and looks right at me.
