Chapter 48 - Outing(Part 1)

"Not bad, you've gotten pretty good at this...but I'm still better, you can't win!" Grinned Theo, a look of focus in his eyes. 

"Oh, just you wait, I'm kicking your ass today," I responded with a frown, doing my best to keep my cool and not panic. 

"You're going down in two or three more hits...time for the finisher!" He declared triumphantly, moving in for the kill. 

"I knew you'd do that!" I exclaimed, nullifying his attack before countering with a barrage of my own, "And with that...I win!"

"Aw, man! I was so close!" He groaned in dismay. 

"Well, you still have a winning record against me, it's ten to one. But now that I've got the hang of this, I'll be sure to quickly overtake you," I smirked tauntingly. 

"Gloat all you want, it'll make your next defeat all the more humiliating," He huffed indignantly. 

"If you wanna talk about humiliating, what about your premature declaration of victory just now?" I grinned wryly.
