Ava woke up in her room with a pounding headache it hurt to even open her eye's she slowly got up looking at the clock it was 7pm. Dragging herself to the kitchen she found that her dinner had already been made and was sitting in the fridge with a note saying to not worry that everything was taken care of. Grating her salad from the fridge she sat on the couch and turned the TV on flipping to the news there was nothing unusual until a story of a group of men was found half beaten to death that were arrested. With a splitting headache she went to bed.
The next week passed and nothing happened Spenser was still nowhere to be seen then the day of the start of sports festival began the two biggest schools were EEC from the east and WEC from the west where she attended luckily this year her school was hosting so she could watch Spencer live unlike how she usually had to watch at the school.Looking at her phone as she made her way to the arena there was a live interview with some of the contestants and Spencer was coming up
“... next up we have the most well-known athlete participating in the competition Spencer Baldr thanks for coming on
“Sure no problem glad to be here”
“So you started the day with track and field then some team sports how do you still have energy after all of those competition”
“As boring as it sounds training and not having wasted movements”
“Wasted movements?”
“ basically when I run or do anything I only use the minimum to do the it “
“So a lot of people want to know about how you fight mostly why you are so good at it”

“Well besides fighting being second nature to me it’s all about thinking about what the opponent can and can’t do”
“Like what?
“So if I punch with my left I can’t immediately punch with it again I’ll have to pull it back and do it again or use something else meaning that you could ignore my left for a second”
“Thank’s for the information, we have a clip from the first round fight that we’d like you to comment on”
As the video started Spencer approached his opponent with no guard as his opponent started punching left and right they all missed due to spencer’s swaying to dodge finally he tried a right high kick on spencer who ducked under it placing his left hand on the ground and spinning his momentum into a left heel kick for a knockout.
“So spencer first off why did you have no guard”
“In all honesty because I didn’t need it for the fight”
“I see as we saw in the video you only used one move for a KO were you aiming for that”
“Yes and no I knew he had certain moves that he used with annoying opponents so I was watching for one”
“Alright thank you for your time and good luck with the rest of the tournament”
“Thanks for having me”
Walking to her seat for the last fight Ava saw the principle talking to a police officer who looked to be barely in his thirties as she approached she heard Spenser's name quickly hiding behind a wall she listened in
“Officer Bryan it has been awhile since I've seen you what brings you here”
“ well Spencer called me about EEC and how they tried to attack his friend Ava If he wasn't there who knows what would have happened”

“True altho I feel sorry for those kids who attacked her Spencer protects those he cares for with a vengeance”
“haha you should know”
“yea after that I quit, what happened to his sister anyway”
“.... actually I'd rather not say”
“Ah that bad, don't say anymore why are you here now?”
“Well after the fight we're going to arrest a large amount of EEC students well after Spencer has gotten through to them they probably feel safer with us, anyway the fights about to start I've got money on him destroying that punk under 20 seconds”
“Alright you’re on
As the two approached the railing overlooking the arena, Spencer and the EEC fighter were standing in the middle of the ring talking then as Spencer turned the air seemed to get colder. As the bell rung Spencer seemed to teleport across the ring hitting the temples on both sides with enough force to be heard in the nosebleed seats. then he kicked each knee with enough force that the snap could be heard outside the arena. Spencer quickly not letting him hit the floor alternating between left and right to the ribs the opponent couldn't even lift his head as Spencer finished the fight with a jaw shattering spinning heel kick to the jaw. The timer had barely counted down 10 seconds and the medics were rushing in.
Spencer left the arena with a cold expression leaving for the locker room.
When Ava finally found Spencer he was leaving the arena in his usual baggy cloths except he seemed larger than before how ever his cold expression had been replaced with his usual smile. As they started home Ava couldn't put the fight behind her and had to ask
"hey Spence"
"what's up?"
"what was with you today you usually try to do the minimum to your opponents having fun, dodging and making them look bad. But that last fight seemed like you just wanted to hurt him"
" long story short they tried to blackmail me into throwing the contest"
"WHAT!"
"Yea they were going to use you as leverage against me so I'd rather not talk about it"
"fine...... Spencer, why didn't you tell me you had a sister
with pain in his eye's he stopped walking and looked blankly at the ground"
"It's none of your business"
"I just want to know about your family"
"Listen I don't ask questions you don't want to answer don't ask me questions I don't want to"
"Why are you trying to shut me out I was just wanted to know more about you and your family"
"Just drop it I'm not talking about it."
With that the two walked in silence back to the apartment with a quick see ya they each entered their own homes.
Spencer who had been busy for the past two weeks finally made it back home however he was too tired to do anything much plus if he was correct his delivery should be arriving the next day. With that he collapsed on the couch as he usually did.

Flashback: Siren Song
The year is 1969. Yancy Lazarus—bluesman, gambler, future world-class mage and fix-it man—is just a dumb, unlucky kid serving with the 3rd Battalion 3rd Marines in Vietnam.With just a few weeks left to go until Yancy gets shipped back to the States, he’s just trying to keep his head down and avoid a body bag—no mean feat in Nam. But when his squad is tasked with conducting a routine patrol deep in enemy territory, everything goes to nine kinds of hell, and he quickly sees his chances at survival slipping away.When the radio operators start to pick up some funky, dirty ol’ blues all the way out in the backcountry, it’s a nice change of pace. At least until the men in Yancy’s squad start losing their minds, turning on each other with murderous intent as the music works its deadly power within them. Convinced it’s some kind of new psychological warfare initiative, the squad leader forces the men to push deeper and deeper into the Vietnamese jungle, obsessed with locating the music’s source. What they find, however, isn’t some new technology, but an ancient spirit awoken by the terrible war. Even worse, the music is changing Yancy too, awakening something buried inside of him. Only one thing is certain, nothing is ever going to be the same.See how it all began … *** PRAISE FOR SIREN SONG:Hunter's writing is as low-down, gritty, and insidious as the blues Yancy Lazarus loves. Just like the mysterious music drifting through the jungle toward Yancy's squad, Siren Song will get under your skin and sink its hooks into your mind. —eden Hudson, Author of Halo Bound (the Redneck Apocalypse series) *** Hey everyone, this is James Hunter. This story isn't a full length novel--its a novella length work (25K words), and is part of my Yancy Lazarus series. Its already free on Amazon, so I thought I'd post chapters here for the good folks of Royal Road. If you don't want to wait for updates or would prefer to read it on Kindle, you can pick it up for free here: https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B01066TLC0

Knight’s Fate: Knight and Princess
When war finally ended, the Arcadians sought retribution from the nightmares they had suffered from demonkind. A noble Princess had taken her mother's mantle in order to uphold peace between the two races so humanity could co-exist with their fellow demons in a kingdom without strife, but war paved the road to peace in blood and such path is but a fragile thread awaiting to be ignited by the flames of hatred. Another great war awaits, but will she be able to avert it?Second iteration of the Knight's Fate saga chronologically speaking. Yes I'm starting from the second because the first was an utter failure when I tried to write it, it just didn't fit the mood of a fantasy novel unlike this one. Though don't worry this doesn't mean you can't enjoy this one before I write the first. This is the first story I've actually published so I appreciate any feedback, be it good or bad just let me know what you think.
