I do not own Harry Potter or Twilight
Chapter 40
Edward grunted as he rolled into a crouch after being thrown into a tree.
He stood and rolled his shoulders before leaning his head slightly to the right. The wood behind him splintered as the boulder that was thrown his way exploded upon impact.
"A boulder? Really?" he spoke directing a mild glare at his sibling.
Said sibling merely shrugged in response.
"I'm just mixing it up a bit Eddy," Emmett replied with a wide grin, a massive log in hand.
Edward's eyes narrowed as he grabbed onto the end of the log that had been heading towards him. "I know what you're doing," he responded, "I already apologized."
Edward dropped the log to use both his hands to block an incoming strike. The earth beneath him kicked up as he was pushed back.
Edward inwardly sighed as he made to do an over the shoulder arm drag, only to jump in order to avoid Emmett's double leg takedown.
Edward leapt backwards.
He was usually on top whenever he sparred with Emmett, but Emmett was currently going out of his way to make sure that he couldn't piece together his strategy.
Emmett laughed as he shook his head. "Come on Eddy, do you really think I'm that petty?"
"Yes," he answered without hesitation.
"If that's what you think," he announced flippantly before he crouched to the ground, body coiled. His eyes glinted and his grin had a sharp edge to it.
"You did cross a line Eddy," Alice's voice chirped from her position on the balcony.
Edward suppressed a scowl. He'd already been chewed out by Carlisle and Esme, Rosalie was still giving him the silent/glare treatment and here he was (admirably) enduring Emmett's measure of...payback.
"I'm glad you're amused," Edward responded as he went into a series of strike-block movements.
"She does have a point...Eddy."
Edward heard the smirk in Jasper's voice, but he didn't have time to retort as he attempted to lock Emmett within a submission hold.
Of course he knew that Alice had a point. Even though he'd only wanted to make sure she had her thoughts straight, he'd gone too far.
Emmett grunted as he reversed the hold, rolling to his feet, trapping Edward's waist between his arms and promptly slamming him down, his shoulder and upper back hitting the ground first. Edward rolled away as soon as he was released, stopping to rest on his back.
"German suplex – you're expanding your move set," Jasper noted.
Edward huffed as he jumped to his feet. He rubbed his neck as spoke.
"And you decided to test those moves out during our spar. Lucky me."
Emmett cackled shamelessly.
"Up for Round two Eddy!"
Leave it to Emmett to milk his repentance.

A/N: Although I know Emmett is not one to keep a grudge or wallow in mistakes of the past, I can legit see him getting payback for Rosalie this way (apart from pranking that is) - with Jasper and Alice looking on in amusement.
This drabble was written purely for my amusement plus I like wrestling.
I still can't write a fight scene well though. I know Edward's second only to Jasper in fighting, but Emmett's third only because Edward usually reads his mind and figures out his strategies.
