Chapter 7. Tobias's POV
My back slams into the ground hard, knocking the breath out of me. But I'm right back on my feet, trying to recover, my dagger ready. My body tense and ready for anything."who's there?"I yell looking around.
But there's nothing but dark. But I can feel the person walking around. Then this guy runs out at me. A huge sword raised in the air.
I spin the dagger in my hand and force it up. I manage to block the blow and stare into the guys face. He's huge, biger then most people. Strong looking holding a nasty looking sword.
My eyes go wide. He backs up and raises the sword again. But this time I'm ready. I plant my feet firmly to the ground,shift on foot and lean to the side.
He misses me by a inch. I grab his arm and push down. My other hand snaps foward and he crys out and stumbles back holding his face. He growls.
I smile. He yells and charges me. I block his first blow with my arm and manage to hit him in the gut forcing a heavy breath from him. He yells and goes for yet another punch. I try to block his next few hits, and I do.
I punch him in the face and send his back a step then I land a kick to his chest. He staggers back and slams into the wall hard. And this time I know what to do.
He screams when he runs for me and goes for another punch. Only this time I grab his fist and twist. He clenches his jaw. I smile and twist his arm behind his back and force it up, then I grab the back of his neck and slam him into the wall face first. He growls. I hear it low in the back of his throut."What do you want from me?"says the guy.
I laugh out loud."What do I want from you? No what do you want from me? You charged me first."I say.
I have him in a perfect hold, but there's one thing I didn't count on. He swings his other elbow around and I slams in to my jaw sending me flying back. Pain so intense spreads across my entire face. I nearly cry out. Nearly.
I blink rapidly to get the dark clouds out of my eyes. Once I can see straight I look around for him but its to late. Cause next thing I know he lands a hard kick to my chest sending my flying yet again. I land hard on my back and slide. But I'm right back on my feet.
The guy is running for me. I charge him and quickly fall to the ground and slide. Knocking his feet out from under him so fast he flips and slams onto his back. I stand up and walk over to him. My dagger aimed at his face. I plant a foot on his chest to keep him down."Who are you? And what did u charge me?"I ask.
"Because were in the arena. Were suppossed to do that."says the guy.
"Yeah well not here. Were not going to kill one another. And if you even try I'll have you on the ground wishing you were never born."I say. He nods.
"Now who are you?"I ask.
"The names Cato."says Cato.
"Well Cato you can call me Four. Now I'm going to let you up, if you try to kill me I'll end you myself."I say. He nods.
I move and let him up. He stands up and goes for his sword but I grab it before he can. He sighs."Come on were going to the camp site."I say.
We start walking. He follows me. My jaw still stings from the blow. But I don't pay any mind to it. Once we get there the others look at us. Tris sighs as she looks at me."Well I see you two got into a fight. Are you both OK?"asks Tris.
We both nod."This is Cato. He jumped out and tried to kill me with this."I say showing the sword.
Eric chuckles."Idiot."says Eric.
I slightly smile and shake my head. I don't sit till Cato does. Once he does I sit by tris and watch the fire they made.
