Donnie's heart was beating a mile a minute. He'd had spent the last several minutes fairly running away from the more mature cat, while he mocked him mercilessly.
It was easy for the king to be cocky. The tables had turned and he now wore the scabbard. Donnie knew with every fiber of his being that his father never would have agreed to the challenge without it, but he felt infallible at the moment and he wanted to make the young upstart pay for exposing him.
Even though it wasn't him that did it, it was Achilles; Donnie had never asked to be born illegitimate. He realized now that Lorenzo and his mother were perfect for each other, neither one was willing to take responsible for their own mistakes.
Donnie deeked and dodged just before his father's left claw could take his head off. He felt it wiz by his neck before he rolled backward and sprung back up again to try and put some distance between them, but he couldn't run forever. His father was too strong.
The only thing he had going for him was his speed and agility, but as soon as he started getting tired he'd get sluggish and inevitably he'd make a mistake.
His father kept chuckling at his near misses like he was playing with him. As if he was a tasty mouse he was toying with before supper.
Donnie landed a kick and quickly wiped the cat grin right off his face, but as his father became enraged he realized that he wished he would go back to toying with him, because the blows were coming faster than Donnie could deal with.
He was breathing heavy sweating profusely and running for his life. Then it happened his father grabbed him around the neck, knocked him to the ground, and pinned him on the spot.
His father squeezed his neck so hard Donnie saw stars in his eyes, but the King wasn't through playing with him yet. He brought his face in close to his and asked him, "Any last words son?"
Donnie had nothing to say to his Stronzo father, but there was something he had to know, so he turned to Kelly who stood being held back by Achilles and addressed her with the question that had occupied his mind for the last month, "Please Cara I must know what does 'Nice Try' mean?"
She looked up from her struggle to break from Achilles grasp and gave him an astonished stare. At first she looked confused and then she just looked resigned before she sighed and said, "Ah sugah don't fuss about it. I know you told Lauren and Kyle about my father. I saw you whispering with them the next day at school, but it's okay Donnie I forgive you. Just please fight, don't give up. "She pleaded.
