18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 51

Finally, with the help of her dog, Stella won in an unfair manner.

Being betrayed by his own trained dog didn't anger Jasper. Instead, he patted his head, "Good boy, if anyone tries to bully her, you must protect her."

Cooper had been pretty fierce a while ago, which worried Stella, "Did he bite you?"

"No," Jasper replied with approval, "Dogs are better at distinguishing good from bad than humans. Cooper knows his boundaries."

Stella agreed, dogs could sense the vibes humans emitted. Jasper had no ill intentions, so he didn't get attacked.

As days passed, Stella's strength visibly increased. When Angela found out that Stella had been training with Jasper, she became determined to train Cody and Lukas vigorously, their apartment often echoing with cries of suffering. After being beaten so many times, Cody and Lukas toughened up, Lukas' slender waistline completely disappeared. With their newfound strength and confidence, they approached Stella, "Stella, how about we spar a bit?" Stella smiled, "Sure."

Their apartment was also carpeted with anti-slip mats. Stella was up against the two of them, Angela was the referee, and Rosie and Cooper were the spectators. Angela blew the whistle, "One, two, three, go!"

"Thud!"

"Thud!"

Stella took them down swiftly, one with a side throw, the other with a knee to the stomach. Her moves were clean and swift, impressively so.

Both of them went down in a heap, howling on the anti-slip mats. Cody clutched his stomach, tears streaming down his face, "You ... you don't fight fair!"

Stella was indifferent, "It's the end of the world. Who's going to fight fair?"

Rosie, who had been cheering for Stella, was taken aback by the sudden end of the fight. She ran back home, "Jasper, Stella knocked out two guys with one punch." She had used the moves taught by Jasper, so impressive. The beaten Cody and Lukas were speechless and embarrassed. Why was there such a big gap?

Angela was furious, "I can understand if you can't beat me, but you can't even handle one move from Stella?"

It seemed like she was still to easy on them. From now on, how many rounds Cooper ran on the stairs, they would have to run the same.
