“Yeah… I prefer to avoid eall of this, you know… if I don’t get hit, I don’t have to take this… so yeah… I’m not very fond of these”

“But you should… it has saved your life a couple of times”

“Well, it didn’t had to save my life so many times is you guys wouldn’t try KILL ME so many FREAKING times” she laughs

“We all went thru this Shane, stop being a cry baby” … she’s right… I singed up for this…

“So you are into Carmen?”

“Sorry?”

“You apologize to much”

“Sorry?”

“Shane where is your back bone! Stop apologizing”

“I’m sorry” she roles her eyes

“Right… I ASKED if you were into Carmen?”

“No… why?”

“You kind of look like you are into her”

“I’m not…”

“Good… because that wouldn’t end well anyways”

“Why?”

“Why you ask, if you don’t like her?” I don’t say anything… I’m into her but she doesn’t need to know that. We stay here feeling the water work for a couple of minutes

“So when is my next beating?”

“In a couple of hours”

Good…

“You swing like a girl Shane! put you whole body in to it” The Butcher, Kit says. I’m sweating and bleeding, not to mention tiered and she want me to keep going. Then with one turn she kicks me, I fall back, she gets down and cuts my leg making me fall in to a table and break it, falling in to he floor, defeated. She stands in front of me smiling “You’re getting better… but your are still-“ I cut her off with a kick, making her fall back and in an instant I’m up. I punch her once, then twice and she falls down. I get on top of her and put my knife on her neck.

“I’m still what?” She smiles and the door in front of us opens and Carmen comes in

“Congratulations… you FINALLY did it” I get up and walk towards her

“How long did it take you?” She looked at Kit and smile, turned around and left. I looked at Kit
