[Day 5] Boxing: Round 4

Such a swift defeat in his semi-final match, somehow he had lost all of the consistency that he gained over the other matches, it’s just like old times back in One. Always picking himself up off the ground, his face covered in his own blood, left to mend himself without one single hand of support. But now he has another chance, another chance to redeem himself and fetch something home for his little siblings to play with, a piece of pride which has been severely trying to gain over his lifetime. Thane just can’t let them down; he can’t let down his aunt, the one woman who has given him a hand of support. He’s already let the woman down so many times but she keeps coming back, for some reason she always forgave him for his reckless decisions.

Warming up his muscles, the name of his competitor greatly intimidates him, another family with a history in the games…this one being recent. Many of the home fans chant their name, Thane’s existence being swallowed up in the celebrity that he faces.

Entering the ring, he shakes his head, trying to rid of the dangerous voice that is slowly trying to knock him down, swiftly replacing it with a voice of moral support. You’ve got one more chance Thane, don’t spoil it.
