"My name is Marcus. I consider myself a great fighter, but there's one fight I wished I never got myself in."

"I was in pretty good shape for my age. I considered myself to be the ultimate fighter, and the ultimate fighter never backs down from a challenge. That's why I got into some fights, but don't get the wrong idea. It was usually with punks who were just looking for trouble. It was never the other way around for me. One day, this guy named Kouki came over to me."

Marcus was the type to never back down from a fight, but that all changed when Kouki came over.

"Let's fight." Kouki challenged.

"Are you sure? I could knock you out in one hit." Marcus claimed.

"I shouldn't have said that. If I knew what was going to come from that, I actually would have left the guy alone. He threw the first punch at me. I dodge it and hit back. I hit him pretty good right in the face that he was sent flying and hit the ground hard. I went over to help him up, but he just knocked my hand away."

Kouki was the first one to attack as he tried throwing a punch, but Marcus dodged it and punched back. He knocked Kouki out in one hit.

"You good?" Marcus asked as he offered his hand, but Kouki just slapped it away.

"Let's fight!" Kouki called as he just leaped at him and tackled him down.

"That lunatic surprised me as he leaped at me and tackled me down, but I was able to kick him off. I kicked him so hard that he ended up breaking his arm. That wasn't enough to stop him."

Marcus was able to kick Kouki off and that caused him to break his arm. Kouki just got back up and kept coming.

"That lunatic just kept coming no matter how much I knocked him down. I fought him off, but nothing I did kept him down. He just kept coming no matter how battered and bruised he was. This was fight wasn't enjoyable anymore and was getting out of hand."

No matter what Marcus tried, Kouki just kept coming. It was getting disturbing with how Kouki just kept coming no matter how beaten his body was. Marcus wasn't enjoying this anymore.

"Knock it off! If you keep this up, you could get yourself killed!" Marcus claimed.

"Exactly. Let's fight to the death!" Kouki claimed.

"No way I was going to do that. I had to end this. I put Kouki in a headlock and tried to hold him down until he lost consciousness. When he finally did, I called for an ambulance and he was taken to a hospital. He lived, but his body was messed up. Although, I think he wanted to keep fighting."

Marcus finally ended things when he saw Kouki was taking it too far. He put Kouki in a headlock and tried to hold him down until he lost consciousness and it finally ended. After it was, Marcus was able to get him to a hospital. Despite that, he felt like Kouki still wanted to fight.

...

Days Later

"Days later, I put the whole thing behind me and thought it was over. I was wrong. When I was returning home from school, I couldn't believe it. Kouki was at my house, standing at my door, and I could see he was stabbing the door with my knife. This was bad because my mom and little sister were home."

Just as Marcus was returning home, he spotted Kouki was back for more and had a knife on him as he was actually stabbing the door with Marcus' family home.

"Hey! Get away from there!" Marcus called.

"I called for Kouki and he had a psycho grin when he saw me. He actually tossed the knife away as he came to me and wanted to fight. He was nuts since his other was in a cast."

When Kouki finally saw Marcus, he discarded his knife and looked ready for a fight despite how he never recovered.

"Let's fight!" Kouki said as he charged at Marcus again.

"That freak came at me one more time, but I gave him one good corkscrew punch to the face and knocked him down. Once I did that, I tried holding him down because I didn't want this fight to escalate. While I did that, Mom called the police and they came and took that nutcase away."

Marcus threw one good punch at Kouki when Kouki tried to attack him. When that happened, Marcus tried to hold him down until the police arrived and took Kouki away.

"That was nuts, but he made a mistake coming at my family. After he was arrested for assault and attempt to murder, I found out something crazy about that guy. It turns out he murdered someone he fought with just his hands. Was he trying to do the same to me? Good thing I could fight back or else I probably be dead. Don't be afraid to fight if you can use it to defend yourself. Also, if you don't want to be like Kouki, know when it's time to STOP fighting."
