Nyx at the moment was nearing the entrance gate of the campus. He was now close to being pulled right at the eye of the storm, not knowing that this would be the beginning of his never ending trouble. His promise to not fight, will be questioned upon his arrival. Ethan and Xander were the only executives who had not done with their fight. Not because Xander was struggling, rather he's been toying Ethan all along. Nyx's school is now on the verge of being swallowed by Riverdale, so the pressure that Ethan is in now was so immense. He was the strongest besides Nyx and Leo on the campus, since they're both not here, him losing against Xander is tantamount to the campus being overtaken and then losing this war. Ethan saw how the executives of Riverdale heavily outmatched them, both by power and numbers. And so Ethan took a boxing stance again and swore upon his name that he would punch to wipe that smug look on Xander's face. “Hey, you better believe that I'm going to land a punch on that face.” Said Ethan, while suddenly dashing to Xander with his arms covering his face. Ethan throws a one two combo at Xander who's been smirking, as he easily weaved through it. Both of their footsteps are overlapping since one was orthodox and the other was not, Xander then proceeded to step on Ethan's foot and threw a straight punch at him. But Ethan being an out-boxer, he was confident that he could easily avoid it, and so he retracted his foot and took a step back to gain some distance. But then to Ethan's surprise, after he successfully retreated. Xander took the initiative and attacked him first before he could even guard himself thinking he was far enough, Xander was in front of him with his fist aiming to his jaw, an uppercut coming from below. Ethan's eyes widened, he didn't know what to do as Xander's advance and fist were so fast, but with Ethan’s well trained body and mind, though the fist of Xander was fast enough for a naked eye to see, his body instinctively leaned its head backward. Yet that still didn't fully avoid Xander's fist aiming for an uppercut, and it successfully connects and grazes Ethan's jaw. Though only a portion of the whole fist hit him, it was still enough to make Ethan fall one of his knees to the ground. Ethan's vision is blurry and hazy coupled with his heavy breathing, he couldn't muster up the strength to stand up, and so he took his time on the ground hoping Xander would halt his attacks. But Xander getting bored of the fight he wanted to properly finish this now and go to where Blade and Rexx are. And so Xander dash out again to finally put an end to his fight with Ethan, Ethan being at the ground didn't know what to do. With his desperation to not lose the war, the school, and himself, he grabbed some sand and threw it in Xander's face who's advancing. That made Xander flustered, and Ethan took the chance to stand up though he was swaying, feeling dizzy from the last hit and damages he accumulated from their fight. For Ethan this was his last chance and last ditch effort, he now wanted to take advantage of Xander who's at this moment is blinded. Ethan positioned his legs firmly to the ground and gathered all his strength to his core, bending it and channeling it all to his left fist, and threw a left hook on Xander's body… That was the last punch that Ethan could throw at the moment, yet after that he still couldn't believe how Xander caught it with one hand. Though the force of Ethan's punch is solid, it was half of what he was usually capable of. The uppercut on his jaw and the damages he took, the beatings he received, rendered his last ditch effort and ultimate punch. Ethan now doesn't have the strength to throw punches anymore and so Xander raised his fist and said. “That was lame as fuck, this is so boring. But before I'll put you to rest, let me tell you something interesting. Did you wonder why your first executive isn't here?” Xander asked Ethan, Ethan was surprised upon knowing that they knew their first executive, as Leo was not known in other 5 schools. “You seemed surprised that we know, he is now currently engaged with our leader and first executive Rexx, coupled with our hundred members.” Said Xander, laughing sinisterly, “I wonder how your first executive would hold on, maybe right about now he is lying unconsciously in that old factory. Right, I've said enough now let me properly end this fight to end this boring war and follow Blade.” “W-wait” Ethan pleaded, “Why do you need to separate Leo from us? With your strength you don't have to.” Asked Ethan, as he found it suspicious on why they put so much effort ambushing one person. “Well, this would be your last, so might as well tell you something about it. That man, who you considered your ‘first executive' is the leader of the Mad lion gang in the north street.” Ethan finally remembered Leo's name, in his mind, how could he forget the man that made him turned into a gangster rather than being a world boxing champion. Xander is now ready to throw the fist he grip above his head to struck Ethan unconscious. Ethan now was lost within his thoughts, he suddenly remembered the gang ‘Mad lion' that made him who he is today. In his mind he hates them for the fact that if not for them, he would've been a national or a well known boxer by now and not some random gangster in the school. Ethan didn't know what he was fighting for, he questioned why he even protected this school, why he even participated in this nonsense war, what was really his purpose. He's so absorbed that he didn't know Xander's fist is now aiming right at his face with force enough to knock him down. As raindrops fell from the ground, screams and shouting from the rumble and the gangs, a weak footsteps from someone can be heard behind Xander's back. And right as Xander was about to strike Ethan in his gripped, someone from behind held his fist. Xander was surprised by the sudden grips, he tried to break free his fist but unable to do so he figured that the man behind him had a significant amount of strength. Xander looked behind him and saw Nyx staring down at him looking like someone who is ready to slaughter. Nyx happened to overheard the conversation between Xander and Ethan about Leo, and also the fact that they dare ambush his friend. Nyx tightened the grip on Xander's fist thinking about it, that it even made Xander sweat and send a chill down to his core that his body unknowingly threw Ethan to desperately trying to break free and distance himself to Nyx. Xander instinctively felt that the guy in front of him is overwhelmingly strong, stronger than anyone he met and fought so far. “W-who are you, bastard?!” Asked Xander, while looking afraid of the person in front.
