Alexia and many others were in the training grounds today, she personally liked the punching bag in the corner because she didn’t have to interact with others.
She spent most of her time in this specific corner and punched away until she felt she couldn’t go on. Alexia wasn’t in the mood to deal with the squad, so she had made sure to skip breakfast and as she came straight down to the training grounds, where everyone had arrived after finishing their breakfast.
Alexia was known as the meanest in their squad but all she ever wanted was to be recognised for her skills. She hated being vice-captain as much as she hated being second place at everything to Sofia. Alexia couldn’t remember the last time she had an unaggressive conversation with her.
All sorts of angry thoughts and jealousy were the tools that kept her motivated and pushed her over her limits. Alexia couldn’t understand why Adrian wasted his time trying to love Sofia when she was so madly in love with him. She continued to punch the bag with force until she felt it is stop moving, as she looked up, she saw Adrian behind the punching bag. Alexia could feel her cheeks turning red, but she tried covering it up with a cough.
‘You, okay?’ Adrian asked as he showed his best smile.
‘Yes, I am fine, just felt my throat get itchy for a second.’ Alexia said and proceeded with removing her boxing gloves.
‘I saw you from where I was with my squad, and you were giving this bag a serious beat down. It almost seemed like you were imagining someone’s face.’ Adrian said and laughed a little, Alexia returned the favour with an awkward laugh of her own.
‘You have no idea how bad I want to punch that person.’ She said as she used her hand to wipe her sweating face and regretting it almost immediately.
‘Anyone I know?’ Adrian pushed further.
‘You might.’ Alexia responded blanky, not wanting to give herself away in front of him.
‘Where is the rest of your squad?’ Adrian asked as his eyes started scanning the area. Alexia sighed internally because she knew that he was probably looking for Sofia.
‘I came here alone, and I haven’t seen them today as yet. Are you looking for Sofia?’ Alexia said bitterly. He looked at her strangely but brushed Alexia’s tone and expression away.
‘I am but seeing as she’s not here I will be on my way now.’ Adrian said and gave her a sweet smile as he turned away and continued down the path to his squad. Alexia swore under her breath, disappointed that he came here in search for Sofia and angry that her words made him leave.
Alexia has never wanted someone the way she wanted Adrian and she didn’t know how but she knew that she needed to make Adrian hers. As she continued to angrily sulk in the corner the captain of the Blood squad and her crew walked in. She spotted Alexia all alone and she smirked in satisfaction.
‘Alexia! Where are the rest of your squad?’ The Terminator asked as she approached Alexia.
‘Do you have business with them?’ Alexia responded with venom in her voice.
‘I have a score to settle with you, seeing as you are always second best when it comes to your captain.’ The Terminator said.
‘Bianca, do you have nothing better to do?’ Alexia asked as she removed her boxing gloves. Bianca’s smile filtered as an angry one surfaced.
‘Bianca, you don’t challenge a lower grade assassin unless their captain grants the permission.’ Adrian said trying to put up the fire between the two female assassins.
‘So, Alexia will you fight me? Accept my challenge and let’s put a proper tag between us.
‘I accept your challenge, Bianca.’ Alexia said as she took a deadly step towards Bianca.
‘I don’t think that’s very clever of her.’ A female assassin from the Blood Squad said.
‘The girl accepted my challenge, let her face the consequences of her own decisions. Don’t try and interfere again, do you understand.’ Bianca said as she turned and looked at her team member angrily.
‘Yes captain.’ The female assassin said looking regretful for speaking up earlier.
‘Spread out, this out to be interesting. Let them take the centre.’ The captain from the War Squad said as he smiled happily for the free entertainment. Alexia walked pasted Bianca to the centre and stood there as she waited for her to come. Bianca walked to the centre and pulled out her katana and fixed her stance as she waited for Alexia to reveal her own weapon.
Everyone was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Alexia couldn’t use her guns here so she would have to rely on her fast movement and boxing skills if she wanted to win the fight against Bianca. She refused to lose face here because if she did, she would remain a laughing shock for the rest of her life within this academy.
Alexia lifted her fists in front of her and crouched down a little as she waited to hear the rules of the fight.
‘The first to make the other bleed wins the fight. Are you both clear?’ The Extinguisher, captain of the War Squad said.
‘Understood.’ Alexia said and fixed her eyes on Bianca.
‘Let’s just start.’ Bianca said as she position her foot in the correct fighting sequence.
‘BEGIN!’ The Extinguisher shouted happily.
‘Bianca came charging towards Alexia with her katana aimed at her shoulder but Alexia smoothly dodged it as she reversed elbowed Bianca in the back of the head as she dodged her attack. The excitement of the crowd was showing through their eager eyes but they all remain quiet.
Bianca quickly turned around and kicked Alexia in the stomach which caused her to move back at the blow. Alexia and Bianca continued to fight each other furiously and at a critical moment Sofia and her squad walked in. They all looked confused until they got closer to the circle and saw Alexia fighting. Sofia’s eyes turned dark as she looked at Alexia who had undermined her authority by fighting without her permission.
As the crowd noticed Sofia’s presence, they spread apart, which granted Bianca and Alexia the perfect few to see the big scowl on her face. This caused a distraction for a few seconds but they turned back to their fight like they didn’t notice Sofia. So, Sofia walked to the weapon rack and picked up a spear.
Sofia turned and ran quickly towards Bianca and Alexia and she stepped on Alex’s back who was on his knees and flew right into the centre where both assassins were fighting. Sofia wielded the spear and slashed Bianca on the shoulder and slashed Alexia on the thigh with her quick reflect. The crowd didn’t look surprised at Sofia’s action, rather they looked bemused.
‘Fucking imbeciles.’ Sofia said angrily and dropped the spear on the ground.
‘What the fucking hell Sofia?’ Bianca scream out as blood gushed out of her shoulder.
‘Captain, I am sorry.’ Alexia said, not looking apologetic at all. Sofia looked at her and walked away from them both and the crowd started cheering and clapping.
‘Grim reaper.’ They cheered. Alex and O’Brian walked toward Alexia and grabbed her by her wrist and lead her away from the grounds.
Sofia was fuming with anger because Alexia chose to disrespect her authority in front of everyone. She should have known better than to accept a challenge issued by a captain from another team. Alexia is lucky that she had interfered because Sofia has faced Bianca before and knew how dirty she fought and when she would execute a deadly blow. Sofia was on her way to the hallway for all the captain’s bedroom when she heard hurrying footsteps behind her until the hand touched her right shoulder. Sofia stopped and slightly turned her head to look at the person who dared touch her without her permission, only to see Adrian. “What do you want Adrian?’ Sofia asked him, as she turned to fully face him. “Sofia, why did you have to do that?’ He asked her. “What are you referring too?’ Sofia threw the question right back at him knowing exactly what he wanted to hear from her. Adrian sighed as his hands rose to hold Sofia on her shoulders. “I know she bro
Alice was down at the home gym punching the punching bag. Although her brother is a Don, he had made it clear that he didn’t want her in that life. Alice felt that they were just a bunch of sexist people because they felt she was too soft to handle a fight. Giovanni’s mafia did not have any females, according to him it was unnecessary because they would be of great inconvenience. Alice thought it was bullshit because she believed that women could do a lot of things easier than men. She continued to punch the bag, but her punches did not have much of an impact. The door to the gym suddenly open and Antonio walked in and spotted her. She turned around at the sound of the door opening and saw her brother, Alice sighed at his presence and turned back to her punching. “You are never going to improve with such small blows.” Antonio said in a mocking tone. “You and Gio are probably happy about that.” Alice said frustrated. “Alice, you know that Gio just want
The woman who easily and skilfully killed those four men quickly fled from the scene after telling the two woman who hide it was clear to come out. Alice and Ashely emerged from their hiding spot. Ashely was shaking from witnessing such a sight, while Alice was shocked that, that woman could kill four big guys so easily without needing a gun. “Ma’am did you see what I saw?” Ashley said as her body shock violently. “I did but please don’t worry my brother will be here in no time.” Alice said, trying to calm down. They both walked closer to the scene and there was blood splatter everywhere. Alice did not know if she could clean up this blood or not before the police showed up. She did not know what she would tell them so all she could hope for is for Gio to get here first before the police. “What do we do? Do we clean up here or wait for the police? What if we get framed for this?” Ashley said and stuttered at the same time. “Get a hold of yourself damn
ONE DAY BEFORESofia stormed out of Master Carlos’s room upset that she got dragged into all of this drama. Bianca looked shaken for an assassin and Alexia for the first time actually felt guilty after hearing what the punishment is. She jogged after Sofia to offer an apology she swore would not come from her mouth, but she was afraid that if she did not do so her position on the team would be compromised.“Captain…” Alexia said as her hand touched Sofia’s shoulder to stop her from walking.“Get your hands off me Alexia.” Sofia said as she turned to look at Alexia. Bianca rolled her eyes at them and continued down the hallway without throwing a comment for the first time.“Please accept my apology.” Alexia said as she attempted to kneel.“Don’t bother Alexia. You do not need to show me respect when the mess has already happened. Sometimes I wonder if you really deserve my respect. I
PRESENT DAYTinx23 JULX 3050Sofia and the squad were back at their base after cutting their shopping trip short. She taught to herself that she was mad for having considered to go out after the punishment she received yesterday. Bianca and Alexia could hardly move properly but here she was parading about.Sofia was in pain alright, but she kept the pain hidden so not to satisfy Madam Lee. She hated that woman and that woman hated her just as much. She walked quickly so that nobody could stop and talk to her because she was not in the mood for socialising with anyone. Unfortunately, Sofia was not in luck because she came face to face with Master Carlos, who looked like a hurt puppy. She wanted to ignore him, but she knew she could not because he was her superior.Sofia stared at him and proceeded to bow her head in respect and greeted him civilly.“Good day, Master Carlos.” Sofia said with no hint of emotion in her tone.
The following day Alice was couped up under her duvet because she refused to leave her bed unless absolutely necessary. She had bathed of course and had her meals on time, but she refused to see anyone otherwise. Alice was beginning to regret ever asking to join into her brother’s Mafia once upon a time. She still wanted to learn how to fight in order to defend herself, but she didn’t think that she had in her to kill someone the way that woman had done yesterday. A knock came from sounded from the door and she sighed because she knew that it was finally time to go back to the real world before her brother dragged her out by force. Alice got off her bed and strolled to the door and opened to see Luca standing there. She didn’t know whether to hide or run from him. Her appearance wasn’t too shabby, but she was wearing a cute little, shorts and a vest pyjama that had designs of panda’s on it. It was awkward for a few seconds until Luca cleared his throat and Alic
Sofia was still frowning when Master Carlos and Madam Lee walked into the training discussing amongst themselves. She was chewing at the right corner of her bottom lip because her mind was far away. Unfortunately, she was not the only one who seemed distracted, Alexia seemed to be lost in her own thoughts as well. “The atmosphere right now could make anyone cry.” Mica said after a long time of remaining quiet. “Why do you say that?” Ronda asked as she looked at him with her brow raised. “Everyone seems to be in their own zone. It never used to be this way.” Mica said and frowned. “Blame that on Alexia and wanting to prove a point.” Becca said bitterly. Alexia snapped out of her thoughts and angrily looked at Becca, “I thought I told you to not involve me in your bullshit.” “It is the truth though, everyone and everything seems cold after the stunt you pulled that so happened to drag captain into it as well.” Ronda added truthfully.
Giovanni sat in his office already regretting his decision to let Alice train in combat with Luca. His mind was occupied with many things before the incident, and he never thought that it would cloud his mind even further. Giovanni sat wondering who the woman that saved his sister could have been. All the thinking was hurting his head, but he couldn’t help but think.He was so deep in thought that he didn’t notice Antonio walk into his office.“What’s up bro?” Antonio asked as he continued to munch on barbeque flavoured chips. Giovanni raised his head as he heard his brother and looked extremely annoyed at him.“Why are you eating those in here? You do know I hate that smell.” Giovanni said.“That’s the more reason to eat this.” Antonio said and munched on another chip which he chewed loudly.“If only you were not my brother.” Giovanni said and simply smiled at his brother.
