The innocent reject novel Chapter 8

Chapter 8 Let's fight.

Today was just like that day

The same cheering and excitement in people

The same arena

The same rules

The same game

The only thing that has changed was time and the player

I was no longer a scared human

I was a deadly hunter

"All the wolves stand in lines for your next battle!" The gamma ordered

And people around me started dispersing and standing in lines

Should I fight?

Even though I am recovering

Still I have this adrenaline rush in me asking me to go and have some fun

With time and circumstances all my passions have died except one

And that was fighting

So without thinking further I went and stood in a line

I really wanted to tell them that the girl you bullied back then was back to give you the taste of your own medicine

But again I stopped myself

I didn't wanted to go against the Alpha on this

Not because I couldn't but because I didn't wanted them to look at me with hate

This idea of being a new person was better

"Anyone who doesn't feel like fighting today can step out and rest"

Aaron said

People around me started whispering

"Alpha has never said something like that before!he always makes us fight beyond our breaking point!Is he serious or is this just a test?"

A girl in front of me whispered to another.

"I think he is serious !Maybe he is in a good mood today!"

The other replied

But I knew better

He was indirectly asking me

He wanted me to back off but I refused

I knew he wouldn't make a scene here

No one left afraid of his intentions

I heard his voice in my head

"Go back to your room!"

I looked at him and he was already staring at me with a deadly look

I gave him a smirk and ignored him

"Aleka leave!! Right now!!

I refused to look at him and waited for my turn which was next

"Aleka i'll throw you back in the dungeons if you do not listen to me!

Step back right now!

That's an order!!"

I looked into his eyes and replied in my mind

"You didn't care for these many years and you shouldn't even care now.

And I don't take orders from anyone Alpha!"

"Next"

The gamma said

And I went inside the circle

Fate plays a very fair game

I must admit this today

Because my opponent was none other than the same boy who defeated me here at the same place 5 years back

He still had that smirk on his face

And today i'll be more than happy to rub it off from his face

I smiled on seeing him and placed my hands inside my track pant's pockets

His wolf was so angry that it wanted to kill me

Before anyone could stop him he lunged at me ready to tear my head off.

People around me screamed and Aaron called my name loudly in my mind

When he was few metres away I changed my position and ducked down going under him

I kicked him at his stomach and he went flying towards the tree behind me.

My kick was a normal kick

It had as much power as a human kick could have

But in fighting power doesn't matter much

I just used his own energy against him.

I just changed the direction of his speed and power from me to the tree behind me

In short I used only 5% power but 95% skill.

Sound of a tree falling could be heard accompanied by an agonising growl of pain

I stood up with my hands still in my pockets

Everyone was stunned.

Their mouths were open in shock and they were staring at the scene behind me.

I turned my neck to see that that tree on which his body smashed into ,had fallen .

And he was lying on it

Unconscious

Aaron was staring at me not expecting me to do something of that sort.

I passed him a smile

Everyone was staring at me

But today their stares were not of accusing or pity or disgust but that of adoration,fear and respect.

And it really really felt good

With long confident steps

I made my way out of the arena

with head held high and a genuine smile on my face

Just like a boss
