The Fu Family

Chapter 12

"Why do you all hold back when you fight?" At that the young team froze. The general had asked a direct question and they froze. "You are all going to be fighting gods, yet you hold back when you train. There is nothing wrong with it, I just want to know why?"

Nino had his reasons. When he was younger, he hurt his father  so badly he almost need to go to the hospital. He swore off fighting for a while, but his father reassured him that he is okay, but from there he always held back in a fight. 

The twins had killed Lady Shiva. They were four. Damian left Talia and Ra's at the edge of their live's at the mere age of five.

Kagami was a very different story. She has a why to manipulate a fight for her advantage. No she doesn't have powers, no she is not a meta-human. She is just so fast, so precise and ooh so deadly when she doesn't hold back. Especially when blind folded. She is part of the reason her grandfather uses a walking stick.

"Can I tell you something about yourselves?" They just nodded. "All those incidents that you all experienced are the reason you stand her to day. Today is the day you are going to stop holding back because you all have the same ability. You all have the same skill set. You went through some frighting things, but know it's time to embrace that skill to unlock your full potential.

Dragon and fox welders take your stand in the middle." Kagami and Damian just looked at each other before going to stand in the middle. "Damian, think of that fight. Use that same skill, that same passion, that same drive. I promise you will not hurt her. Kagami, do the exact same thing, but first take your sash and cover your eyes." Kagami went ridged.

"Are you sure that's a good idea general?"

"Is your mother blind?"

"Yes." Yes her mother was blind but that didn't stop her. Her mother is an amazing fighter. She still had the same drive, the same passion, the same skill as every other fighter.

"Then there's your answer." With that she covered her eyes and went into a fight stance, so did Damian. "Begin."

What a beautiful fight it was. Each blow was matched, each kick, each jab, each throw, each block. You could see the confidence grow between the both of them. The confidence in them selves and in their fighting, but most of all you could see their joy. The joy to not hold back. There was no pain, no restraint, no, there was freedom. The fight ended with one Damian's leg up in a high kick position, with Kagami in the same position, making their legs go into a 'X' position.

"So how did it feel to not hold back?" General Antiope.

They didn't have to think of answer. "Freeing" They answered simultaneously. That's how it felt, and it was a good feeling. No good in an understatement. It was an exhilarating feeling, and they loved it.

"Alright then. Bug, cat, turtle your up." This should be fun.

"I'm sorry, could you repeat that?" Dick asked, but you could here the laughter in his voice.

"He almost punched his teacher, because apparently his teacher insulted his intelligence" The principle said for the second time. This had Dick chuckling.

You see Dick got called in because Tim almost punched his physics teacher. Here's the thing, Tim's teacher hates being corrected. He would go on this whole thing that they didn't know anything because they haven't being to university yet and all that shit. The teacher was lucky Duke was there to stop Tim from beheading the arrogant man.

"Is it okay if we go see the formula the teacher taught and then Tim's formula? I just want to know why my kid had a problem with it, to the point of attacking a teacher." Dick said, the mirth still clear in his voice. The principle looked skeptical but then agreed. She too wanted to know, because from her knowledge, Timothy Drake - Grayson was one of the most polite students she has every come across.
