Hello everyone. My name is Alex. I am 18 years old and I will be telling you of my awesome adventures. It all started 4 years ago. I woke up from the normal dream of me being in a anime or some stuff. I was and still am a big anime fan. I look around my bedroom and see posters of anime characters. I yawn as I get out of bed and look in the mirror. I look at my short jet black and pick up a comb. I try to comb it straight but it doesn’t work. I get really frustrated and say screw it. I then put on a black t shirt that says JUST DO IT!!!. I put on a pair of blue jeans and some black and white shoes. I go over to my door and check my height and I measure to be 5’11. I grab my skateboard and put on some socks. I then slip on my shoes and walk over to my computer. I get a message on skype saying. ¨Meet at the usual spot.¨ The message says. I then exit my room and walk down the stairs. Then I hear my mom say. ¨Where you going sweetie?.¨ She asks. ¨Oh I am going to hang with my friends.¨ I say exiting the house. I skate down the street until I reach a warehouse. It looks abandon and I walk inside. As I walk in it is very dark and I hear footsteps. Then out of nowhere a guy tries to hit me with a straight punch. I parry his attack and I throw him to the ground using a judo maneuver. He then lands and tries a sweep kick with his right leg. I then do a back flip and dodge his sweep as he stands up. .Then the lights turn on and there are 2 other people same age as me. “Good job alex… You're still our best fighter here.¨ ¨You damn right I am Josh .He shakes my hand as we walk to the other people. I look at one who has a Gray shirt, Blue jeans, Brown hair that drops to his shoulders. He stands about 5’10. ¨Hey Noah.¨ I say throwing him a cigarette as he pulls out a lighter. I walk over to a girl who is wearing a tank top and some black jeans. Her blond hair was wrapped in a ponytail and and I raise an eyebrow at her. She blushes and looks away from me. ¨Alex stop that.¨ She says blushing. I laugh and say. “Ok Emily.” I say jumping up and sitting on a old container. Then me and Noah look at each other as we all hear footsteps. Then about 10 guys march thru the front door. One of them walks up and looks at all 4 of us. “Who of you 4 is Alex?” He asks as I jump of the container and walk up. “Who wants to know?” I ask and some of the guys back up. One of the guys who was about my height walks up to me and we look each other in the eyes. “So you’re the best fighter in town huh?” He says with a deep voice. I nod as he laughs and looks at me again. “Well lets see about that.” He says throwing a straight punch. Then I parry his strike and get behind him very quickly. I then hit the back of his leg knocking him to the ground. I then plant my leg on his back and grab both his arms and start to pull. He screams in pain as I stop pulling but keep him restrained. “Alright bro...You win!!” He says as I let him up and walk and sit next to Noah. The guys run as Noah and I laugh and look at each other and high five. “Nice job Alex.” Noah says with a big grin on his face. “Thanks...man being the best fighter in town is awesome!” I say looking at Emily and I wink as she blushes and looks at the ground. I then look around the old warehouse. “Man we should fix this place up.” I say as I look at Emily. Emily shrugs and says. “Why you looking at me?” I then laugh and say. “Well your family is rich...your dad is one of the richest man in the world.” She shrugs and sighs. “I guess I could ask my dad for some money to fix this place up.” I then get a call on my phone and I answer it. I then hear heavy breathing as I speak. “Um hello?” I ask a bit confused. Then I hear someone speak in a dark and low voice. “Hello is this alex?” He asks but it seems weird. “Yes and who is this?” I ask in a somewhat serious tone. Then I hear laughter and the man speaks again. “Well I have a proposition for you.” He says with a somewhat sinister tone. Then there is a silence and he speaks again. “I would like you and your friends to fight for my team in the upcoming martial arts tournament. If you do I will pay you a handsome sum.” He says as I look at everyone. “One moment please.” I put down the phone and gather everyone. “Alright everyone. This guy wants us to fight for him in a martial arts tournament. If we do he will pay us a handsome sum.” They all look at each other and nod. I go back to my phone and pick it up. “We are in.” I say as the guys says. “Excellent...Meet me at 56th street tomorrow morning at noon.” He says hanging up the phone. We all look at each other and nod. “Alright we will meet there tomorrow.” I say as we all leave and head home.
