Kami didn't exactly know how she had ended up in any of this, but she did know that since the start of the small fight she had received more hits than had been planned. Normally she would've taken street punks like this out in no time at all, training all day every day all day for 12 years did that to you. And even after she left the abbey she and Kai would still train around the clock to stay in top shape. But still she couldn't seem to focus on this battle it was different, all she could think about was: Kai. A sharp blow to her gut snapped her back to reality, turning she snarled angrily at her new found opponent. This kid had some nerve interrupting her important thoughts.

Bringing her left leg up she rounded her boot coming in contact with the others face hitting him square in the right temple. She watched as his body fell like dead weight to the ground in a useless heap knocked unconscious. Jumping to look behind her she barely dodged as a fist moved past her head the force of the blow pushing her bangs from her face. Using quick movements she used her strength to launch herself off the ground curling into a ball in mid air she turned her back flip to fast for any to get a hit on her. Untucking herself she put her hands above her head and launched again her next flip getting more force than the first, as if in slow motion her eyes opened mid-air and scanned her surroundings but only for a moment. Deciding to quit running she brought her body down hard on the form of another the victim giving a sickening groan from her weight. Her body was built for moves like this, unlike the rest of her team who were more built for head on brute strength. She was light, agile, and her moves were to quick to pin. That was how she was trained and her training was something she could never forget.

Her violet eyes scanned her new and last opponent, Wiley. He punched her hard in the face sending her reeling back barely catching herself before she landed on the ground. Straitening she lunged back at him landing a fist in his face and then another in his gut. Spitting out blood the teen jumped forward cursing her before bitch slapping her across the cheek sending her into the wall grabbing her back as pain shot through her body. "Bitch." he swore calling her a well known name for the second time that night. Stepping over a fallen he moved to straddle her hips holding her arms above her head in a painful grip, leaning down he kissed her roughly his free hand moving to roam over her weakened body rubbing and pinching on any thing he could find.

"Get off of me." she hissed bucking up wildly unknowingly grinding her hips into him making him want to ravish her all the more. Reaching up he ripped at her shirt desperately trying to rid her of any cloth separating the two. Hearing the tear she growled and slashed eventually freeing one arm. And one was all she needed. Flexing her hands she twisted wildly using her nails to slash him across the face leaving four deep wounds across his left cheek. Loosing his grasp he yelped in pain and brought his hand to his cheek through reflex forgetting all about the seething form beneath him. Kami quickly took advantage of the situation and jumped to her feet standing in front of the other as he scrambled to get up. He got to his knees before he found himself confronted by the imposing form of a furious panther.

"Now who's the bitch?" with the last statement she back handed the bewildered teen his head landing hard on the concrete as he passed into the darkness of his dreams none of which were filled with anything happy. Letting out a heavy sigh she fell to her knees looking down at her ripped shirt, he had completely torn on strap leaving her shoulder bare accept for the thinner lace of her bra. The shirt remained barely hanging up on her chest the other strap still holding strong and for that she was thankful.

Rubbing the side of her head she slowly stood wincing as pain washed over her body in waves. Walking dumbly she got sight of her reflection in a shattered piece of glass. Her hair was ruffled and knotted; her cheeks were bruised and bleeding. She was sporting a split lip and a black eye. Her arm felt like somebody had torn it from her body and then sewn it on upside down and it was as if somebody had stabbed her in the back: literally.

Her mind was a whole different matter, she had won and about now she should be congratulating herself for her latest victory. But she wasn't in the mood to gloat, wasn't in the mood to mock the fallen. She was just numb. And that wasn't a feeling she took to lightly. The surroundings, the smell, the feeling in the pit of her stomach it was really as if she was back in the abbey. And just like old times she was alone. Continuing down the alley way she stopped dead at the sound of footsteps, had one of those jerk woken up? No. She knew those footsteps; they were soft yet firm, cautious yet confident: Kai.

Swallowing the lump in her throat her eyes scanned the darkness searching for any movements and signs of life. Finding none she turned the other way making sure to keep her senses sharp and at a peak. 'Where is he? Why doesn't he say something already?' The latter must've read her confusion from his spot in the shadow for he new exactly what she expected of him. "Kami we need to talk." he spoke a last his voice emotionless matching the stoic look on his face.

"I-I-I gotta go." With that the girl dashed off in the opposite direction looking for any means of escape. 'Why can't I bring myself to talk to him? Am I afraid of what he might say?" wrinkling her nose she jumped over an upturned trash can 'Pft, me afraid? Yeah right.' Spotting a light at the end of the alley she ran faster hearing the sound of Kai running behind her.

"KAMIA GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE NOW!" Kai yelled pushing things out of his way trying to gain more speed. Just when he reached for her she turned leaving him to spin around and run after her seething with anger.

Running deftly Kami spotted a fountain and realized she was nearing the town centre, the park. Reaching edge of the grass she stopped at the fountain, looking down into the water for just a minute. That was all Kai needed. Before she had time to run again Kai tackled her both of them falling into the fountain the cold water making their skin numb almost the instant after they broke the surface. Opening her eyes when she fell in Kami looked around to find herself completely submerged Kai landing on top of her, struggling she tried to push him away faster her air supply running short. Her arms and legs were flailing around wildly trying to roll him off, when at last he finally stood pulling her out with him her lungs aching for air.

"W-what d-did you d-do that f-for?" she stuttered her lips turning blue.

"If you would've stopped I wouldn't of had to!" he argued back able to control his freezing bodies twitching. "Why'd you run again?"

"I-I don't know." she replied at last looking away.

"Kami I-I'm sorr-" he was cut short, the panther closing her mouth over his in a feverous kiss muffling the rest of the word. When at last she pulled back they were both left panting for air, cheeks flushed, teeth chattering. "That mean you forgive me?" he asked his eyes hopeful.

"I'm getting there." she replied with a smirk pulling him down again taking dominance, something Kai didn't give out to her easily. Pushing his to the ground she straddled his hips kissing him again, his neck, ear, jawbone anything she could find. Kai laid there shocked, she had really snapped back to normal.

'What did Bryan say to her on that plane ride?'
