Alex in Wonderland - Part 30

Jessica’s face was set in pure concentration. Amanda’s eyes sparkled as she leaned in close to Alex, “This is going to be good,” she breathed.

Krystle let out a long, “Hiyee,” as she charged. Jessica’s features never checked emotion as her hands flicked the mop handle so quickly only White Rabbit and Amanda (who had seen Jes in action before) saw the mop crack Krystle’s kneecap before she came crashing down. Sliding across the floor face first, passing Jessica on the tiled floor.

Krystle scrambled and rose. She lunged, with another, “Yah,” and cracked Jessica in the side of her head with the nunchucks. A flash in Jessica’s eyes proved that this was a planned “fault.”

In Krystle’s split second gloating, Jessica had grabbed the wrist of the striking hand, twisted the arm against nature’s design and brought Krystle (screaming) to her knees.

Alex nodded in approval and whispered, “Cool,” to Amanda.

White Rabbit looked at his pocket watch, again. “It’s the final countdown… Time to go.” He announced.
