The Family Burden
(Ok so I am actually going to try and get a fic completely written. The last one I wrote was lost when my computer crashed. Ok anyway,
I do not own Final Fantasy or any of the characters in it. Alyx Almasy and Stephan Almasy are mine though, oh ya, I found out, so nobody can sue me, Almasy is a real last name. The people who lived in my house before me had that last name. Isn't that cool? Oh ya, the story.)Prologue
"Rumor has it that Zell Dintch is going to fight in the tournament next month." A tall man in his early forties, dressed in complete black, said quietly.
"Really? Does this mean I'll be fighting against him? Daddy, do you think I have a chance beating him?" The 5'5, 16 year old brunette girl asked in excitement. She was very pale and dressed in a totally black martial arts uniform and a black belt with yellow Korean letters on it.
The tall man looked at his daughter and smirked. "Alyx! If you can't even beat me, how do you think you're going to beat Zell?" He pulled on his fighting gloves one at a time and walked into the empty dojo. The man walked into the center of the room where a Sparring ring was marked in tape. His daughter followed shortly behind him. The stood across from one another and bowed. Alyx quickly put her hand out towards her father. He looked at it for a mere second, then shook his daughters hand. Alyx retrieved her hand as her father motioned for her to make the first move.
Alyx did a front snap kick into a jump inside crescent kick, spun around and blocked her fathers punch with her back. She returned the punch with a middle knuckle punch toward the nose. The tall man quickly moved his head and cross-blocked her arm sideways and grabbed it. Alyx tried to break away but his grip was to strong.
"I told you, there's no..."
"Shut up!" Alyx said forcefully.
She tripped him backwards breaking away from his grip. She waited for him to stand up. The man did a front kick. Alyx could only block down. He continued with an outside crescent kick, Alyx jumped down low and returned a low spinning kick. Her father jumped and did a high sweep-kick to her head, causing her to get knocked down. Her head touched the ground on her hard fall. This signaled her defeat.
Alyx's father walked over to where she was laying. "You bring disgrace to the name Almasy. Your brother Seifer would be ashamed to know that a chicken wuss is going to beat you next month." He kicked her in the side very violently and walked off.
Alyx could only sit there and cry because of the shame she would soon bring to her family name.
(Ok that is only the prologue. I will get the next part ASAP. Please R/R I would like some confidence boost to help me, for the fact that I had to go to my martial arts studio and get two black belts to make up a good fight for this. Thanks guys!)
