Chap. 9 The Test

Starcat stared at the ceiling, well if there is one since it's so dark. Red X and Slade opened the door. Slade nodded at Red X. X went over to her and took off the X, he picked her up and carried her out. She struggled trying to get loose of his grip but then was shocked by her belt. They were now in a hard padded room. There was a window in the wall. Slade was behind it, he grabbed the microphone. ((Oh, how cute! He's going to sing a love song so that they can dance! Jking! Lol)) Slade spoke into it, "Ok here are the rules. No quitting, no surrendering, and fight hard." "Wait!" Starcat called out. "What is this?" "This is a test on your fighting skills." "And if I refuse…" "Then I will shock you with the touch of this button, slowly and painfully." Red X held out the button. The lights went out, only a couple were on at a time, blinking off and on. X started to run around her.

Starcat was getting confused on her vision. It looked like Red X was surrounding her. He soon came up behind her. "Peek-a-boo…" He kicked her into the hard padded wall. "Don't worry, I won't be hard on you… much." He walked toward her. She soon did a back-filp over his head and threw him into the wall. She blasted him with wind. Clumsy and dizzy he stepped back away from the wall and put his hand on his head, moaning. She ran towards him and threw a kick sending at his head. He grabbed her ankle, hung her upside down, took his knee, and jammed it into her stomach. She dropped panting for air. She ran towards him screaming and clawing at him. She grabbed his neck as her powers lifted her. She held him to the wall with a wind spiral forming in her hand, getting ready to fire. Slade noticed the smirk she had on. An evil smirk like his. Right before she fired into him he grabbed both of her hands and head butted her. She screamed in pain as she dropped to the ground. The bandanna grew tighter around her head, she tried to pull it off, but got shocked. X threw X's at her she somersaulted under them. Then somersaulted more really fast. Like a ball of speed. Bouncing everywhere until she hit the back of his head. She chuckled when she stood up. X got out a bow staff with 3 razor X's at each end, he turned it on. The whole staff glowed red and white. Electricity ran around the razors. Cat's eyes widened. The spikes around her wrists on her long armor gloves came out further. A disk formed around them. X came at her. ((But of course carefully. He would not want to cut her pretty face.)) She blocked the razors with her spiked disks. Different angles they turned fighting, back and forth. He turned off the electricity. He soon back flipped over her and put the bow-staff to her neck. "Finally caught you." He tugged her down to the ground. She was now laid down under it, trying to lift it off her neck while X held it down on her. He was in an opposite position leaning on her. The mouth part on the skull of his mask lifted automatically and he leaned in more to kiss her. She smirked as he did. A min later she curled up her legs, rocked on her spine then kicked him hard in the face flying in back. She held the bow-staff in her hand. "Maybe later." She said as she dropped it in front of him. The lights came back on and Slade was behind her clapping his hands slowly. "Bravo… Bravo…" Starcat gazed back at X and smirked.
