The Fight Never Ends
Ch.1
Why would it be a dream?
I can hear the shouts of multiple people; it is 1:30am the beatdown is almost up to the semis. I watch the fight, it's my friend Jack against a guy named Pat. I hope he wins. The fight ends with Pat out cold. After my fight I move onto the finals. I hope me and Jack can be the finalists, it would be like training. I watch as HE walks out of the crowd, the beatdown king for the past 2 years. He has the eyes and smile of his father. HE has deep cold blue eyes and a smile that reminds you of the devil. Jack looks nervous. The fight ends with Jack in a head lock and taping out, I understood. The fear sets in I must fight HIM, Drake McCarthy.
I start to hear my name and I'm being punched.
"Creg! Creg! Wake up"
I open my eyes it was all a dream. I look at my clock, 7:10am. I'm going to miss the bus to school. My sister screams at me to get ready,
"Dad has a morning class; he can not drive us if we miss the bus. Hurry up!"
In 5 minutes I'm ready to go, I run downstairs so fast I almost face plant right into a punching bag. Me and my sister run to the bus stop, I beat her, but what else is new. I'm a sophomore and she is a freshman in the prison everyone calls high school. We are the home of the Cougars in the town of Orlando.
As I get off the bus, I see HIM drive by and park in a senior spot. I wonder what he did to get that. It's Drake McCarthy, my archrival, it's in my blood. His father Ryan hated my father; Ryan was a fighter he was known as "The Terror" he only won 2 beatdowns though. Drake has won 3 and is known as "The Nightmare". Him and his father share a few things besides their piercing eyes and cold smile, they are only happy when they are breaking someone's nose.
He looks up from his car and sees me. He gives me the traditional smile with kind eyes. I will never fall for it; my sister on the other hand thinks he deserves a chance. Every time I see her talking to him I drag her away. The look fills me with anger I'm still letting off steam after first period, this anger will come back to life in my science lab, and McCarthy is there. Even worse is my sister is his lab partner.
Please let there be a fire drill or something to prevent my suffering!
