The Beauty and The Cage

Round One -1-

Montreal , Quebec

When I’m not anywhere to be seen , not in MMA Gym ,the dojo, at my house , or at the park skateboarding, then surely you’ll find me at Nate’s house.

′ Gahhhhh , come on!′

Nate - Natalie my best bud shouts as she adjusts her t**s around her beige strapless bustier. She looks very annoyed when nothing pleases her but I’d say her twin look good as she checks herself on the mirror. Her cleavage would make any guy stop to look twice , that if she hasn’t gouged their eyes afterward. She really has C cup boobs which look plum and soft press up against each other in the bustier. Well I should stop with the graphics, no wonder why people always think I’m gay. I’m not. Nate is. She’s a bisexual, well not in this quite term. She’s more a gender fluid, which means she’s a total straight but bipolar , sometimes she’s attracted to men and in the very next day you can see her drooling over a woman and loathing men . Her s****l affection always in change.

′ Nope. Uh uh. This is too revealing’

she mouths out , pouting her lips on her reflection as she puts on her lace black bra which matches her panties then grabs her Nike’s logo t-shirt and pulls it over her head. She throws on her favorite ripped skinny jeans , shoving her feet into a size six converse, then finally combs out her long dark blonde hair and pulls it up into a pony tail.

Nate is one of few people I call friend , she is the closest one to me after Debby. And one of few people I could blindly trust in . It is weird how we started such strong friendship before over seven years . Nate is a really nice person when people don’t f**k with her. She has a bit of a short fuse at times, but that only adds to her charms. Recalling the first day I had known her , I’d say I was not that friendly, neither she was. Nate was always praised for her discipline in fighting , I was the opposite of her, my fiery temper and a capacity for brutality made me recognised as one hell of a fighter.

Back to our first meeting, we both have been competed in a fight in an underground parking garage. We had put back then on a nice cat fight . I was only 17 at the time while Nate was older than me with two of years , she was really the toughest opponent I had back then. I was still recovering from an injury I have got two weeks before . She clocked me a few too many times, ringing my bell early, but I wore her down and made her tap to a Kimura in the middle of the third round. We ended after that be friends . What it called, we were two faces of one coin.

That was and still a part of my life before becoming an instructor in martial arts school. I am an underground street fighter by night. At that time seven years ago , I was undefeated and in great demand although my young age, that was before I had to figure out some way to go professional without my parents knowing. I was 17 and they were still against me competing seriously, you know , only because they didn’t want their baby getting all beat up.

Looking back now and remember how it all started it seems still unreal .

You see, I grew up in a loving family with my dad and mom and my sister , we loved each other so much , even though Anastazia and I are not their real daughters , there is always a great feeling of harmony in our home. My dad, Ian, is a hardworking teacher and a great guy , I could always talk to him about anything, all what I am now is absolutely because of him. He always makes time for us, making his family in the top of his priorities , and my mom is the same way.

As children , my sister and I could see that out; mom and dad were still as much in love with each other as the day they met for first time. So let me give you a description of my dad , he is 5′9 broad shoulders and at that time 47 years old, still has all his bright black hair and bright blue eyes and he always has that smile on his face.

My mom is a perfect example of a Canadian-Australian woman . She is 5′1 jet black hair with piercing blue eyes and at that time with 51 years old , she still has a build like a super model. Maybe not giving birth helped her to keep this fit body.

Debby is more than just a mother to me, she is my sister and my best friend , she is one of those people that the first time you meet her you could not but fall in love with her, always smiling and good natured , she would make everyone around her feel loved and important. You see, she just has that gift to make people happy just to be around her , she really is the light in our little happy family and we love her so much.

Anastazia my sister, is another adopted daughter, I’d say she is my tweenie. We both are same age and both get blessed to be important parts to complete this family that has raised us up. Ian and Debby always reminiscing how we have met , Ian confessed that Debby has decided to take both of us from the same orphanage, they -though- never mentioned who was the first child they have taken before the second attracted their attention with her crying. My guess is always Ana , she is your typical drama queen in our family who thinks any slightly unpleasant situation is a major disaster , sometimes she successfully gets under my skin , we yell at each other , we fight over silly stuff , after all, we do all what the real siblings do. Our fight somewhat can’t last long, before the end of the day we bear down our fences . But if there is something I would say about her , that I love her and appreciate her presence in my life although we have our deversity of thoughts and prospects .

I know almost nothing about my biological parents , the only thing I know , well two things I know , that I was thrown to an orphanage after two month of my birth , no idea if there was a solid excuse for giving up on me , but I could say that whatever the reason was , I’m just glad to be one of the Selfridge’s. They said you can’t choose your family because they’re a gift to you from heaven , but I guess heaven rewarded me with better set of parents , surely they’re better than my real folks.

The second thing I know about the folk who given up on me is a little necklace I was carried when I was a little baby, with a half heart as a golden medallion , I’m still carrying this necklace with me as a bracelet , especially when I have an important game in the ring , it is somehow a mascot to me. Debby - Deborah my mother , told me once when I came to this world, I came as a fighter , with a fist looked like a tiger claw , since then I decided to go by name Tiger Claw as an alias to me.

Nah kidding, it is just because of one famous technique in Gung Fu.
