**AVA'S POV***
As I was coming back from work after a very long day at the office, I was so exhausted that the only thing I could think of at the moment was to get home and get under the hot shower. Excitement crept into my heart when I realized that I was almost home. As I got nearer and nearer I saw a silhouette of a man along a very dark alley leading to my house. I peered closer to realize that he wasn't the only one there five other men in front of him He was in trouble!.
My survival instinct kicked in, they weren't looking like ordinary people, what have that man done to offend that much people. Some people didn't really know what it meant to stay in your lane.
I didn't want to them to sight me, thereby putting me in a big trouble for something I knew nothing about. I turned my back to leave and take another route to my house but on second thought I decided to help him.
I was so upset that this people had ruined my happiness and are thereby wasting my time to get under the hot shower and to relax my tensed muscles. I heaved a sigh and walked straight toward them, while I was walking towards them I reached inside my handbag and brought out my small hand mirror and began fixing my hair when I was done I brought out my lip gloss and applied a little of it. If I was going to fight , I was going to fight looking beautiful.
When I looked up I was right in front of them and they were all staring at me like they saw a ghost. " Great I look good" I said and walked into their middle standing right in front of the guy then whispered to him " I'm here to help you, don't worry".
"What'd y'all want with my brother...tsk tsk cornering him like this in broad daylight aren't y'all afraid that you'll be sued or even charged to court for this?".
I said with boldness that I haven't experienced before, not like I wasn't used to this but today I was so very upset so I just wanted to get this over with and leave because I was so exhausted.
"Dylan what is this? You brought your little girlfriend to come save your stupid a** , what sort of a man are you?".
A shabby man stepped forward to say, thereby making fun of the man I stood in front of, making the others laugh, I tilted my head a little to the back just in time to see that the guys head was hung low, he was probably embarrassed. Though I couldn't read his expressions because he was wearing a face mask.
"That's enough! I'll ask one last time, what'd y'all want with him?" I asked again trying not to lose my temper, I was clearly upset, first of all I was being call "little" , of which I knew I wasn't , secondly I was longing to go home and they were elongating the process.
" Little girl didn't you think twice before stepping into a problem that's clearly not yours to begin with?". Another person chimed in.
I felt a bit guilty because he was right, I didn't know what happened before interfering in their matter but all the same they looked like they were going to harm the poor guy.
"Do I need to have any reason to help my brother from scumbags like you?". I asked them looking down on my nails. Surprisingly they were cute at that moment,I wanted to go to the nail salon the previous day but I occupied, I knew that when i was done with taking care of those scumbags they won't be complete anymore because some will fall off.
One of them was about to respond,when I just raised my hands shutting him up.
"I'll fight everyone of you here if you let him go" I said trying to come to a bargain with them.
They all looked at each other and laughed like they heard a joke, I turned my head to guy at my back and whispered to him " if things get rough run!!!".
He looked at me with watery eyes and nodded slowly, poor guy he was probably dazed.
"Are you scared to take on a small girl like me?". I said to then trying to provoke them to fight me and thereby giving the guy the opportunity for him to run without him being noticed by them.
" What a joke, little girl get out of the way let's get down to business with the person we came here for, we're being nice enough not to even hold a grudge against your annoying interruption".
The leader of the gang said clearly annoyed looking me square in the eye.
" Tsk tsk now I know that you'll are weaklings" I said pulling the last string.
With one look from the leader two huge looking from the circle stepped forward, they both had smug looks on their face, it was so disgusting and it gave me the creeps. I smiled and cracked my hands, I hadn't had fun in like two months and these was the best opportunity for me yet and I was gonna use it to the fullest.
I wanted those motherf*ckers to pay for what they're doing. I'm guessing this guy's not the only one they've bullied or tormented,someone's got to teach then a lesson.
As they stepped forward they were both looking at me menacingly, I smirked and used my hand to slowly guide the guy behind to my back shielding him.
The two thugs were coming closer and closer to me cracking their knuckles and heads trying to make me feel intimidated.
Instead a gave them a mocking smile which infuriated them making them come at me with anger.
The first guy charged furiously at me wanting to lift me up from the ground, I sensed his move in time and skillfully dodged to the side delivering a powerful kick to his ribs making him groan in pain and fall down to the ground with full force landing on his ribs.
The second man also rushed at me, I kicked him right in the face without giving him any chance to do anything or make any move, I was sure I had broken his nose.
I stood still and heaved a sigh, I used my hands to dust my clothes and tugged the strand of hair that was covering my face behind my ear, putting my hands into my pocket I face the remaining 3 men and their leader.
"Next" The leader was looking at me with an intense gaze, I ignored him and faces one of the men, walking slowly towards him.
"So sorry to bother but do you have a saviette or a clean handkerchief...you see I have to clean my hands they're all dirty, you know I can't use dirty hands to fight, it's really not proper" I asked him looking at him squarely in the face
As I walked towards him slowly I thought he was gonna move back but then he didn't, I suspected something was wrong.
Our gazes were locked then for a slit second he looked away at the back at me. I then got the message.
With a swift move I bend down and then the punch that was meant for me went straight to the guy I was standing in front of.
I stood up grabbed the second guy by his collar at the same time using my leg to deliver a powerful kick to his chest making him fall backwards with blood gushing out of his mouth and nostrils.
The heavy punch plus the chest kick….that was just too much for him.
I held the hands of the guy I held by the collar and twisted it to the back, I didn't stop there I continued twisting and twisting till I was sure that it was dislocated.
The air was filled with a loud cracking sound of his hand dislocating from their sockets and his deafening wailing. I heaved a sigh and said kicking him
"Tsk…tsk so noisy what have your master taught you all these years?".
The leader continued to stare at me intensely with the last man standing close to him clearly afraid.
If looks could kill, I was sure gonna be one thousand feets underground.
"Who are you?" Their leader blurted out.
