A Battle of Emotions

High atop the imposing balcony of Ace House, Callus stood like a silent sentinel, his gaze fixed on the training grounds below ,his breath which was heavy because of his previous intimate encounter. His expression was a mask of calm, but turmoil churned within him as he watched his younger brother, Adrian, who has been behaving weird recently.

'was it something that happened yesterday, or was it something he seems to hide from us' Callus was Adrian's elder brother but he seldom respected Callus's order. Thus only Ethan could have handled him.

"Call Ethan, Send Messenger" Callus ordered his subordinate who was standing beside him bowed to him and left for put the command in action. But Callus here was a bit irritated and worried at the same time, both because of his younger brother here who not only disturbed Callus's morning fun but also made him worried.

The training grounds of Arca High were bathed in the soft glow of twilight as the crowd gathered to witness a spectacle they could hardly have imagined. Adrian, the usually calm and composed leader of Ace House, stood in the center of the arena, his eyes blazing with an otherworldly intensity.

His opponent, a bold and perhaps foolish challenger, squared off against him, fists clenched, and determination etched into his features. The tension in the air was palpable as the crowd watched with bated breath.

The battle began with a thunderous clash of fists. Adrian's movements were a blur of supernatural speed as he unleashed a relentless assault. He sidestepped the challenger's initial strike effortlessly, then retaliated with a blindingly fast punch to the abdomen. The impact sent a shockwave through the air, and the challenger staggered back, gasping for breath.

Adrian continued to press the attack with a barrage of punches and kicks. His fists struck with pinpoint accuracy, landing blows on the challenger's arms and torso. Each impact echoed through the training grounds, and the crowd watched in awe as the challenger struggled to defend himself.

The climax of the battle came when Adrian delivered a devastating uppercut that left the challenger momentarily airborne. The sheer force of the blow sent him crashing to the ground with a resounding thud. His body skidded across the hard-packed earth, leaving a trail of dust in its wake.

The challenger lay on the ground, battered and bruised, his body trembling with exhaustion and pain. He attempted to rise but faltered, his limbs refusing to obey his commands. Adrian, standing over his fallen opponent, looked down with an eerie mixture of triumph and an unsettling rage that seemed to seethe just beneath the surface.

The crowd erupted into cheers and applause, awestruck by the display of power and ferocity they had witnessed.

As the defeated challenger was helped to his feet, it was clear that he had underestimated the leader of Ace House. Adrian's unleashed fury had left a lasting impression on all who had witnessed the brutal battle.

But for Callus, the scene was a source of inner turmoil. He knew his brother well, and this sudden change in attitude and demeanor unsettled him. The calm and collected Adrian was replaced by a force of uncontrolled rage, and Callus couldn't fathom the reason behind it.

As the battle was raged on, Callus's thoughts raced. He wondered about the mysteries that Adrian had kept locked away.
