“You’re telling me she took down all these kids?” Niklaus asked, pointing at the group of young actors in the room. They trained for six months, built muscle, and were, on average, a head taller than Quinlyn.

Bradley nodded, but Niklaus gave him a flat look, saying, “I don’t buy it unless you let me see it myself”

Bradley felt cornered. He turned around and saw a crowd gathering behind him, eager for the spectacle. Trying to save face, he said, “How about she shows you a few boxing moves?” He tried as hard as he could to not be embarrassed.

But Niklaus shook his head. “What’s the point of just showing some boxing moves? I want to see a real fight. Some actual experience. Don’t make stuff up just because she got in through connections.”

Bradley swore he wasn’t making it up. He was almost ready to cry, but he knew he had to prove himself. Reluctantly, he walked up to Quinlyn and challenged her again. “Just take it easy on me, okay? Go light on the punches, he reminded.

Quinlyn was confused. Sure, they were filming, but they had been training for six months. She was excited when they said they were going to spar, especially since all the kids and Bradley acted like they were the real experts.

But as soon as they started, they all seemed so weak. She had already held back some of her power from the start. “Bradley, did you actually go easy on me just now?” Quinlyn asked, genuinely confused.

Bradley’s expression hardened. With everyone watching, he couldn’t exactly admit that he hadn’t.

Quinlyn suddenly understood, and her respect for him grew. “Ah, I get it now.”

Bradley thought, ‘What do you mean by that? Don’t leave me hanging like that. Now I’m nervous.

He tried to comfort himself, thinking, ‘It’s just like last time. It’ll be a fair match. But as soon as the fight started, less than two seconds in, Quinlyn’s jackknife was already at his throat.

Bradley thought, ‘Holy crap! I didn’t even see her coming!

Niklaus, who was watching from the sidelines, was equally surprised. He didn’t expect Quinlyn to be this fast, but since the fight ended so quickly, he couldn’t figure out exactly how she did it. He said, “Let’s do it again.”

By now, Bradley was ready to quit. He’d held on only for his pride earlier, but now he’d lost both his dignity and his pride.

After Bradley was knocked to the floor seven or eight times, Niklaus seemed finally satisfied. He clapped his hands, stood up, and looked at Quinlyn like she was a rare treasure. “Where did Raymond find this gem? I totally misjudged him earlier.”

Raymond, who was still clueless about what was going on, had just finished a dialogue scene. He was about to check the playback footage when he turned around and saw Niklaus sitting with Quinlyn on a small bench and offering her snacks.
