Kiarta's P.O.V
Easy. I couldn't conceive the idea that this opponent would be difficult in the least to beat. I started to walk confidently forward, but Niko placed a hand on my arm to stop me.
"Remember, analyze the opponent before attacking or a lot of unwanted damage will occur."
I nodded then started walking towards the strange teen again.
Videl's P.O.V
I stood calmly and watched as the two walked towards me. Just the fact they were willing to fight me let me decide that I was going to adopt these two. Once they got into the center of the circle I was in I told them the rules.
If you are knocked out of the ring you are defeated, if you are knocked out you are defeated, and if you give up you leave the ring immediately. "Are we clear on the rules? And remember, this is just practice, so don't be scared."
They both nodded and dropped into stances. I could tell that these two had never had a master before. I could see from here a lot of mistakes and openings. I could also tell that the duo had complete and utter faith in themselves.
I turned to Mrs. Briefs and asked her to tell us when to start, then dropped into my stance. "Aaaaanndd… GO!"
I ignored the fact that that was the loudest I have heard her speak since we got here and charged at the two. Once I got in close range I tried to punch Niko in the stomach, but Kiarta caught me in the shoulder with a punch.
Niko followed up on the girl's attack and punched me in the stomach. Hard. I doubled over for a second and gasped. Without hesitation Kiarta kicked me in the chest hard enough to make me stand straight again. I jumped back a few feet and caught my breath. Now it was time to fight.
I ran at Kiarta and feinted a punch then kicked her legs out from under her. She fell over backwards and grunted as I kicked her out of the ring. She sat up with anger boiling in her eyes.
I glanced at her, but turned around just as Niko was charging at me. He attempted to punch me in the stomach, but I pushed his hand away and moved to the side. My dodge left his chest wide open for attack, so I took the opportunity and smashed my fist into his chest.
He flew back across the ring from the force of the punch, and I darted after him and finished by punching him in the forehead. His head snapped back and he rolled backwards out of the ring.
I stood out of my stance and bent over with my hands on my knees trying to catch my breath. "youh… you guys… put up a good fight. I… I think you could almost take on my dad… together if… you got some training!"
The two nodded at me and walked over to where I was. "Hey, want some water? I could go get some for you." I nodded at Kiarta, watching as she left the room. I glanced at Niko then turned to talk to Mrs. Briefs.
"These two are definitely the ones I was looking for. I would like to adopt them both! Or rather my dad would… you get what I mean!
While Mrs. Briefs went to get the paper work I left to tell my dad the news. "They're perfect! They are exactly as I had hoped they would be. They are both strong, they would like to learn martial arts, and so far they haven't been brainwashed into thinking of you as a super star, so they will treat you as a father, and not their idol!"
"Um… they? As in more than one? How many are we talking here sweat pea?" "Just two daddy. I think that they are related, but I really don't know… anyways, the point is that they are exactly what I wanted, and the way they act if we take one we have to take the other. Besides, you'll get twice the publicity for twice the kids…"
As soon as I said this he jumped up off the couch he was sitting on and ran to go find Mrs. Briefs. A few seconds later the duo came in and sat on a couch across from the one I was sitting on.
"So, my dad agreed that you two sounded like the perfect match to our family. He's filling out the paperwork now. By the way… are you two related? You kind of look a like," I asked the question that was gnawing at me.
"Well, does being twins count? If it does then yeah, we are related!" I laughed when Kiarta said that.
"So, do you know why you were left here when you were four months old, but Niko was found wandering when he was nine? It seems kinda odd."
Right after I said this Kiarta looked down, and Niko's eyes got a steely look to them. "It was a tradition. Our mother lived by the rules and beliefs of an old and dead civilization. They would not allow a parent to raise their child. At the age of three males were blindfolded and led out into the wilderness, where they would be left to survive. Females were not born as often, so therefore they were treated better than the males. Instead of being dropped in the middle of nowhere they were left in… well their version of an orphanage I guess. After a certain number of years the females were brought back to their town or village. The males, on the other hand, had to find their way back. When they were left they were told to survive for however long, then try to find their way back. Not only did this system teach the young boys to fend for themselves, it reduced the number of males, and weeded out the weak.
When the children returned home they were formally trained, and were sorted, according to usefulness, wealth, and, most of all, strength. First class warriors were either members of the royal family, or had high ranks in the army. Second class warriors were the soldiers that showed talent, but weren't especially strong. Lastly, Third class warriors did not show much promise, talent, or strength. Everyone was expected to mate with one of his or her own class, and inter-class marriages were considered disrespectful, and the two were banished from the kingdom."
"Wow… that sounds like a rough way to grow up. I have never heard of any ancient civilizations living like this. What was the name of the civilization?"
"We actually don't know. Mom never told Niko, and if she told me I wouldn't even remember, seeing as I don't remember her."
Right at that moment my dad came back out and told us that the paper was done and the twins were now my siblings. The three of us were simply ecstatic! The twins had a family, and I had someone to share everything with!
We loaded all of their things into the limo, got in and started home. I leaned back and thought to myself 'they are most definitely the ones.'
Like it? I did! sorry that i suck at writing fight scenes. i just don't really imagine any of the fights being that long (yet), but if anyone would like to write fight scenes for me i would be happy to send you the chapter before it is posted, so that a proper fight can be added. PEACE, LOVE, KI! Kay out!
