The blow was intentional, hard, and precise.Kory grunted before hissing like a feral cat, then leaped backward and grinned like the idiot he was."Welcome back to the game, brother." he jumped effortlessly on his toes as he glared at me.

He got off from sore ribs and blue eyes. He wore his bruises like a medal."Don't hold back." I wiped the sweat dripping down my forehead with the back of my hand, then braced my ground.

An edgy American response glided into the mix, and the cacophony crept into my brain invasively.
