Holding back

The moment Caleb said those words, the two of them quickly charge at Kiran. Caleb quickly throw a kick while Mikey went for a blow.

Seeing as the two attack was getting close to him, he raise his hand and knee so as to block the attack.

If someone was to see how he had block both attack, they would have thought he was an expert on Muay boran, because it was perfectly time.

Caleb quickly throw his other leg while turning his other leg Kiran was blocking so as to support himself.

Kiran seeing as Caleb other leg was approaching him, he quickly push the hand of Mikey away and raise both his hand up to block the kick of Caleb.

The impact of the kick flung his hand sideways, making him to quickly distance himself from them so he wouldn't receive another.

Rushing after him, Mikey quickly throw a kick which connected as Kiran wasn't able to react fast.

Bearing the pain, Kiran quickly move to the left as he could see Caleb's fist approaching him. Dodging the fist, Kiran throw a kick to Caleb which he block.

Seeing Mikey already close to him, he pushed himself from Caleb and dock down to dodge the fist of Mikey.

Using the opportunity presented to him, he quickly kick at Mikey's legs, causing him to lost his footing and fall to the ground, but before he could do anything with the opportunity, Caleb was already close to him, landing a kick.

'Why am I hesitating, I can't just shake the fear of me seriously hurting them, at this point I'm going to lose' said Kiran inwardly.

Mikey standing up from the ground and standing beside Caleb, he could see Caleb giving him a sign of which he nodded his head in approval.

"Am I missing something or do you two just use some code to communicate of which I'm not aware of?" Asked Kiran jokingly before they rush at him.

Preparing himself, the first person that got to him was Mikey, blocking the kick sent by Mikey , he quickly balance himself as he raise his hand also to block a fist which was coming towards his face.

Being occupy by Mikey, he wasn't able to react fast to blow the flying kick sent my Caleb which landed on his chest and making him to fall to the ground.

"Coming to think of it, I haven't see you two fight against a single person before, your cooperation isn't that bad at all" said Kiran as he stood up from the floor.

"You should have think of that before saying the two of us should come at you, we haven't fight two to one because it's cheating" said Mikey.

"Why are you holding back Kiran, this isn't like you to hold back and especially not now when you are fighting two of us at once" said Caleb as he has notice it during the fight.

"What are you saying Caleb?" Asked Mikey as the words from Caleb made it sound like Kiran was playing with them.

"Wait, do you really think he's fighting with all he has?" Asked Caleb as he look at Mikey. "You're so stupid Mikey, of course he's holding back, Kiran just don't let opportunities slide away, you would have been out of the fight if he was to take the opportunity at that time".

"Don't you think you are overestimating him Caleb, we aren't weak so why will Kiran hold back?" Asked Mikey.

'That's true, you guys aren't weak, then why am I holding back?' Asked Kiran to himself as he look at his hand.

"Maybe he have his reason for not going all out, I'm sure that would be the end of the match if you are not going to continue" said Caleb as he was about walking to change his clothes.

"Wait, let's go again" said Kiran as he stopped them from going.

"What's the need Kiran, it wouldn't help you and neither us if you continue holding back" said Caleb.

"Let's go again, no holding back" said Kiran as he tense his fist.

"Okay then, round two it is" said Mikey as he ready himself.

Sprinting towards Kiran for the third time was Mikey who always like being in front, he throw a kick towards Kiran which was caught effortlessly. Kiran using the opportunity, he quickly clear Mikey's other leg causing him to fall to the ground.

Raising his head and seeing that Caleb was already unto him and had throw a kick, He quickly roll over and dodge it before it could connect.

Getting up from the ground in a quick pace, he throw a punch towards Caleb which he block, but the force from the punch shook his hand, making him unable to react as he saw Kiran giving him a kick, causing him to crash into Mikey who was about standing up.

Seeing Kiran jumping up and his leg coming to their face, they quickly roll to different side of the room, causing Kiran to miss his target.

Standing up, the both of them quickly rush at him so as to attack him from the two side so he won't be able to block both.

With Mikey throwing a kick and Caleb throwing a fist, they both taught that it will connect or even if one of them doesn't connect, the other will as it would be hard to dodge both, but to their surprise they could see their attack stopped in their place.

'How come?' Asked Mikey inwardly as he look at his leg which Kiran was holding unto, and not just his leg but the fist of Caleb.

Using his leg and pushing forward, Kiran kick the thigh of Mikey causing him to shout out in pain. Turning to face Caleb, he twisted his hand before giving him a kick to the chest.

"Seems that's the end of the match" said Kiran as he look at his two friends who were currently lying on the floor.

Seeing the way the both of them were panting for air and lying on the floor, he walked over to the corner of the room before picking some cans of water and passing it to them.

Sitting upright and opening the water bottle, they quickly gulp on it like if it's going to take the pain they were currently feeling.

"Caleb, do you know he has improve this much?" Asked Mikey as he look at Kiran who was sitting beside them.

"No" was the short reply from Caleb.

"Seems we are going to lose the bet about him not winning against the new boy you talked about" said Mikey.

"He has improve, but I still stand with what I said, he won't win" replied Caleb to the words of Mikey.

"We will see about that" said Kiran.
