Cousins Combat.

"Leia, aren't you wearing your protective gear?"

Leia was already done changing into a tracksuit and she walked to the middle of the ring, skipping as she moved.

She peeked back at Grayson and saw him putting something in his mouth and she shook her head saying, "Ohh, do we need the protective gear? I felt it might be useless but if Grayson insists, then I would put it on."

Grayson took a look at her and the anger on his face was quite visible. "Bitch... Let's continue without it." He moved to the ring with her.

Grayson took a look at Leia and he saw the look on her face, she seemed confident as she kept on giggling.

"Grayson, go easy on me huh, I'm a girl..."

Grayson was irritated at the way she spoke, he felt like she was making fun of him. He was in no mood to fight against her, but with the way she spoke, it was like she was overconfident that he couldn't win against her.

"Let's get this done quick."

Grayson got into the ring and stood in front of Leia, facing her. He then bent his upper body a little to do a sugar stance.

Leia also did the same and the two of them began to move in circles.

"Fight!!!" Leo shrieked and as soon as they received the order to fight, they both dashed towards each other as fast they could.

Grayson interlocked his both arms with Leia's own and he pressed her down, overwhelming her in the test of strength.

In response, Leia used her both legs to support herself from falling. Her legs were in ninety degrees with her upper body part and Grayson was amazed, wondering how she could hold herself up that way.

Soon, Leia began to lift herself and she returned the attack to Grayson. She pushed him down, just the way he did to her.

Unlike Leia, Grayson wasn't flexible so he went down to the ground with his legs still folded up.

He raised one of his legs and used it to push Leia back a little and he did a kip-up to raise himself. Leia changed into a boxing stance and began to monitor Grayson's movement.

Grayson seemed to be also studying the way she moved and he knew there was no strategy for him. He moved to her, blocking his face.

She tried to punch him but he moved to the left, dodging. He also tried punching the right side of her tummy as he dodged and Leia twisted to her left side, evading his earlier attack.

As if Grayson could foresee that she would move there, he followed her by swivelling to his right also to land another hit to her tummy.

Grayson body was low, in such a way that she wouldn't be able to send any punch to his face and at that point, Grayson seemed to have the higher hand.

But, Leia was skilled, to an extent that she could twist her body any way she wanted to shun any attack coming towards her, and what else, she had quick reflexes that made her respond to anything as fast as she could.

The moment she saw his arm coming towards her abdomen, she shifted her body to the left, placing her both arms on Grayson's shoulder and cartwheeled her body to the other side of him.

Grayson stood and took three steps back. He knew she was always better than him, but she had gotten much better.

"You are quite good for someone who hasn't trained since the last six years," Leia smiled at Grayson and she also took two steps backwards.

Grayson was baffled, the moment he noticed there was no form of sweat on Leia's face and he was already sweating profusely like he had used the whole day to train. He had very low stamina.

Leia noticed that he had already gotten tired and then, she confirmed that Grayson had really not been training cause he was not that bad before she left.

She went back to her boxing stance and Grayson did the sugar stance, and slowly, they began moving towards each other once more.

Leia kept on smiling as she moved, it seemed like she had a plan to take him down. When the distance between them was little, Leia jabbed her fist towards him and Grayson ducked the attack.

That attack was a decoy because she knew he was going to duck and immediately he did, she grabbed his shoulder and sent her knee flying to his face.

*Crack!*?

"Arrghh!" Grayson yelled as he felt the pain that began to engulf his nose and his body flew back the moment she left him alone.

Normally, Leia was to stop at that moment, but she didn't seem to want to. Grayson noticed that she wanted to continue the fight and he wanted to stand but the pain he felt made him unable to at that instant.

Leia got down and placed her both palms on the ground. She made one of her legs bend and the other straight and she used the leg that was straight to sweep the ground, moving it to kick Grayson that was on the ground.

Grayson saw what she was about to do and he kicked himself off the ground without the use of his hand, which made it able for him to dodge the attack. Her leg was still on the ground so he stood with his legs wide open.

Leia turned her leg that was bent and made it stand and while her hands were still on the ground, she raised her straight and other leg and she sent it straight to Grayson's face.

She was about to hit him on his chin when he dropped his back with both hands supporting him up. The back stand he did was one, and what followed it was a backflip, and he was able to stand back on his feet.

At that point, Leia stood, and she noticed the blood that leaked on the ground. It was from Grayson's nose.

She dashed at him the moment she saw him focus on the blood, sending a punch to his face the moment she got to him. What followed the punch was a jab to his neck from the edge of her hand.

"Arrckk!" Grayson staggered back after that attack. "I give up!" He said.

"Haha, Did you not train since I left?" She sat on the ground and placed her both hands on the ground.

"Yes." Grayson sat on the ground also panting and he turned to Leo and yelled, "Leo, water!"

"Why?"Leia asked him, wondering what might have caused it.

"Nothing, just some things I needed to do and I was lazy."

"Huh, You are lazy? Well, that's that... You lost, so you are going to help me with my plan since you lost?"

"You must be crazy, we never made a bet.."

"No I'm not crazy, I mean it... If you won, I would have stopped and joined your whole wishy-washy plan."

"I would never." Grayson caught the water that Leo threw to him and he began to drink it. He felt a little refreshed as he drank it.

"Well, you just have to. You must have forgotten our bet before I left here angrily."

"Huh? What happened then? What bet?" Grayson dropped the bottle of water down and he looked curious.

"Ohh, you must have forgotten... Six years ago."

"Well, I don't have good memories, but I know that I never made a bet with you. I do remember that the day you left was the last day I lost my temper."
