18. Catching Up


After a week of training and sleepless nights practicing, Katie was able to spar properly against Shiro.

" 2 to 2! You both are tied!" Hunk yelled out while munching on sweetened bread and Shiro's and Katie's heads turned towards him,

" What? I'm hungry. For your information, it's literally 5 in the morning..-Chomp-.. I still don't get how you guys are able to do this so early."

Their heads snapped back to attention and Hunk counted out muffled, " 3..2..1.. Begin!"

Katie ran right away because she was taught by Matt that the one attacking first got the upper hand of winning.

Shiro was prepared for the kick so he blocked it and caught her leg in mid-air to disrupt her balance.

Katie struggled to pull her foot back but she thought of her brother and father who were waiting to be rescued and her mother who was fighting to stay alive so she focused on Shiro's unprotected and weak spots.

An arm of his was still gripping her leg tightly so he had only an arm to defend himself with meaning both of them were equal. 

Katie smiled to herself when she finally spotted it. 

She twisted the arm that was still holding on her leg and  flipped him onto his back on the ground and before he could get up, she was already on him learning from the last spar and pinning him to the ground with an arm and her other arm pressed against his neck.

Katie grinned with a look of victory plastered on her face, " I win.."

                                                                     ***

Keith walked into the living room of the castle sweating and noticed that a bunch of maids and butlers were running around looking worried.

He grabbed an arm of the nearest maid before she ran away and asked, " What's the rush?"

She looked up at him with big blue eyes and looked back down quickly blushing after noticing that it was the Prince.

" Your Highness, the King of Altea announced that they will be coming in a month."

Keith froze, " What? I thought we still had 2 months?"

The maid gulped, " The King thought that it was best for you and Princess Allura's marriage to be over with but don't worry I'm sure you'll be happy with her."

She looked up again quickly and found his eyes flashed with anger but he forced a smile and released her arm, " I'm sorry for using your time."

The maid blushed and said quickly, " Don't worry you didn't bother me at all and it was an honor for me to able to talk with you."

She walked away leaving Keith alone in the middle of the living room thinking,

' If Allura comes , Lotor's bound to follow..'
