Hey guys. What up? babbitrulez, here. I hope you like this chapter. It's named after one of the things I suck at writing! Heh! Heh-heh! Heh. Yeah... So, uh... go ahead and read the crappy fight scene. After you read, tell if I over-criticized myself. As Zorpox the Conqueror said in Bad Boy, "Do your eyes criticize?" Plus... heh... I was... kinda hoping to have more reviewers by this chapter, but... this one will explain why Kim acts kinda... OOC. Yeah... so... READ ON!
Chapter 3: Fight Scene
Kim and Olivia circled each other.
"Bring it!"
"Oh, I'll bring it, O-livia!"
"No! Don't bring it!"
"Whoo! Go Kim!"
Wade stared at Ron in disbelief.
"What? I can't cheer on my GF?"
Wade sighed in annoyance and turned back to the now-growling girls.
Their green eyes drove daggers in to each other. Both of them charged, did a back handspring, and their feet met. The force knocked them both back against the windows.
"KP!"
"Olivia!"
The two girls opened their eyes and glared at each other. They ran towards each other again, only this time, Olivia swung her right fist at her opponent. Kim ducked and did a leg sweep on Olivia, knocking down the eleven-year-old. Olivia reacted by rolling backwards and jumping back up to her feet. Kim somersaults in the air and lands right in front of Olivia. Kim kicks forward, sending Olivia into the window between Wade and Ron. She slid down the window and onto the table. Groaning, she sat up and eyed Kim. Olivia jumped off the table and onto the floor in a handstand. She then pushed off, flipped in the air, and landed behind Kim.
"Huh. I wonder where Ned is," asked Ron.
Ned crawled out the back door to Bueno Nacho. Once outside, he quietly closed the door and leaned against it. A few seconds later, he fled, screaming.
"Ah well."
The rest of the fight went the same way. Kim attacked, Olivia avoided, then Olivia attacked, and Kim avoided. Wade sat there, shivering, while Ron and Rufus kept cheering on Kim. At one point, Olivia said --as she delivered several puches-- "You know... Why. Can't. You guys. Cheer. Me on?!"
"Because!"
"Because why?"
"Hmmm... Y'know, I never really thought about that."
Olivia sighed and cartwheeled forward. Kim backflipped towards the ice machine. She braced herself on it with her hands and shoulders and the counter with her feet, waiting for the right moment. Olivia stopped the cartwheels right in front of the counter, so at the end of her last cartwheel, she somersaulted into the air and landed on top of the counter.
Now's my chance, Kim thought.
I'm gonna show 'er who's boss!
I got 'er right where I want 'er.
Although she is my mom... Ah, well... She doesn't know...
Olivia crouched down on the counter. Kim readied herself for her attack. Both eyed each other warily.
The two jumped at the same time. Kim, with more velocity --being older, larger, and a bit more experienced--, knocked Olivia over the counter and towards the guys. Kim straddled Olivia and reached for her arms. Olivia grabbed Kim's arms in an attempt to keep clawing fingeernails away from her face.
"Kim! Stop!"
Kim looked up at her friend. He looked scared, while Ron and Rufus portrayed impressed and enjoyed emotions. She rolled her eyes and thought, Men...
Olivia was shocked at how hard Kim was fighting because her own daughter borrowed a phrase.
Kim sat up, then stood. She offered a hand to Olivia. When they were both standing, Ron and Rufus burst out cheering. Kim and Olivia had the exact same look on their faces --one raised eyebrow, both eyes half-lidded, jaw open twice as big as usual.
The Middleton High School running back and towel... boy?... rat?... whatever! noticed this and stopped immediately.
"Heh. Sorry."
"Yeah. You're going to be sorry when I get through with you."
"KP..."
"Oh." She chuckled nervously. "Sorry. I'm a girl. It happens once amonth. Mood swings and all that jazz. What can you do?"
"O-kay... I don't get it bu--" Everyone was quiet so that he could think. "Ohhhh! I get it now! You mean-- oh."
"Yeah." Kim turned to Olivia. "Sorry, Olivia. I didn't mean to lash out at you like that over such a petty thing."
"It's okay. I do that around that time, too."
"So, no hard feelings?"
"Nope. It was just like practicing with my mom every morning. Except... a bit more fierce."
"Heh. Sorry 'bout that."
"So, uh..." Wade tried to lighten up the mood. "Nacos, anyone?!"
As the quintet munched on nacos, two sets of eyes --one green, one brown-- lurked in the shadows behind the counter.
So... How did you like the chapter? Was the fight scene okay? I hope it was. I think the story's doing pretty well, don't you? Please review! I felt like being extra nice today, and I was gonna post the next chapter, but I wanted you guys to be able to wonder who or what the eyes were in the shadows. Now that I gave you the bad news, here's the good news. I'll put up two chapters next time I post, okay? Be good, folks! babbitrulez, out! Get ready for the next chapters, Chapter 4: Lurking Eyeballs and Chapter 5: Mall Encounter!
