creation and property of James Cameron, FOX etc. I do own Faith and some
minor characters, but you know the rest.
SPOILERS: Takes place after Freak Nation - the imaginary season 3.
Chapter Six:
Inside the building was a vast amount of transgenics, the majority of the residents of Terminal City. There was some sparring against one another, with others observing their technique. A group of X8's were being led through graceful tai-chi movements under the direction of a close friend of Alec's, an X5 called Daniel. There was some X7's ripping with frenzied force into the punching bags and other transgenics lifting weights or running on treadmills. Everyone was in a general good mood and all acknowledged their CO and superior officer, as the two entered. "Are you sure you want to spar against me little girl? I might hurt you. Or you could break a nail." Faith laughed at Alec's comment, flashing her straight white teeth, "Don't hold back sweetie."
She winked at him and Alec shot a punch at her face, with less force than he usually did. Faith dodged the blow easily, moving her head to the side and then she took hold of his arm, twisting it vigorously so that he flipped over. He soared through the air after springing off the floor and landed easily on his feet. The two circled each other, grinning, yet both had a predatory look taking over their eyes. They were oblivious to their surroundings and that everyone had stopped to watch the two. Faith sent a kick to his stomach and Alec grabbed her leg, twirling her to the ground. As she fell she lashed out with her other leg and tripped him. Both fell and were on their feet again within seconds. Alec threw several punches at her, which she dodged and blocked, hand to arm, their movements synchronised and perfectly timed. He sensed that she was holding back on him, so he blurred and delivered a quick punch to her face, kneeing her at the same time in the chest. Faith blocked the punch, but didn't anticipate the jolt to her chest. She doubled over briefly and recovered sending several fly kicks to his face. Alec spat blood and spun around, hooking his leg into her neck. Faith gasped in pain and threw several blows to the side of his face. On the last, Alec grabbed her hands. She jumped over his head, landing with her back to his. She lashed out backwards and kicked his leg in at the knee. Alec stumbled and recovered, back-flipping towards her and tripping her hastily. She jumped and then he took the opportunity to tackle her to the ground. Alec sat on Faith's chest and held her arm's down by her sides, her breasts heaving as she struggled, "What's the matter, can't take me?" "Bite me!" "Give up?" "Never" Faith her shook her head at him and brought her legs up around his neck, using them to powerfully smash his body into the ground. She flipped herself over and landed on top of him, holding his legs with one arm and hands with another, her foot at his throat. Alec pulled his arm free and grabbed her foot, pushing it up and twirling it. She fell off him and he jumped up, panting. Faith also sprung up and Alec clutched her arm, twisting it behind her back. He copped an elbow to his nose for the trouble, which spurt out blood for several seconds, before his transgenic genes kicked in, stopping the flow. He leaped at her and gave a mighty hook to her face. Faith's lip split open and a thin trail of blood made its way down her chin.
The transgenics watching were quiet with awe. The two moved as though it had been rehearsed a million times. They were performing a dance, a routine of grace and power. They were by far the greatest soldiers any of them had ever come across before.
Faith seized the moment as he wiped at his nose, sending a series of kicks to Alec's torso. He grunted in response, before punching her - it connected with her a sickening impact to her eye. She took it all in her stride. Sensing the wall behind her, she grabbed Alec's arm and ran up across the side of it, planting her feet in a missile kick to his stomach. He fell and pulled her down with him, both landing on the floor in a coiled heap bleeding. They both pounced up onto their feet and faced one another, eyes intent and smiles as wide as ever. Alec faked a move to Faith's right and as she moved to block it, he blurred to her left and grabbed her. Once again she elbowed him, then hooked her arm around his neck, pulling him over her shoulder. He slammed to the ground and he reached out for her hand, pulling her down too. They landed with a harsh impact and Alec was immediately back on his feet. Faith snapped her head up in time to receive a running kick from the wall to her face. She fell backwards and lashed her foot out at his leg. He kicked her roughly in the stomach as she lay on the ground, before she shot up and kneed him purposefully above the groin. Alec winced and crouched somewhat, allowing Faith to deliver a ruthless elbow to the back of his neck. He spiralled around and punched her, missing by millimetres. He continued throwing punches and she mirrored his movements with a series of blocks with her forearms. Finally he succeeded in with a strike to her shoulder. Faith lent over in pain and as he enclosed in on her, she head-butted him. Alec growled and seized Faith, throwing her clumsily into the wall. The two stood, bleeding and panting heavily, knowing that this fight could go on forever. They faced one another and suddenly became aware of their audience. They grinned at each other and Alec delicately took Faith's warm hand, both bowing to the crowd.
The building erupted into applause. They both laughed cheerily and Alec eventually motioned for everyone to continue as they had been before. Faith turned to leave and Alec wrapped his arm around her waist, leaning into her. His breath was hot on her sweaty face, "Don't hold back next time and I wont." She chuckled and grabbed at him, pushing her mouth commandingly onto his. Alec was taken aback, but kissed her with equal force. He grabbed her ass and pulled her closer to him. She jumped up and hooked her legs around his waist and the X5 backed her up against the wall, lips never leaving hers. Suddenly, both sets of eyes flew open and they parted lips, "That's a new technique. Mind if I try?", Daniel laughed as he passed the transgenics. Faith turned a pink colour and Alec smirked back at Daniel, before the two turned and left the building.
