Chapter 29: Chapter 28: Progress
In the morning at 5:00 am, Caesar’s alarm buzzed until Caesar’s arm reached towards and shut it down.
Caesar sat up from her bed and made her way towards the bathroom to turn on the tap, wash her face and leave.
Moments later, Caesar began her workouts, repeating what she did yesterday from her push ups, sit ups, squats, jumping jacks, and pull-ups using the ceiling log but unlike yesterday, she seemed to be performing a bit better.
Later outside Caesar’s house, in a field of grasses, Caesar was striking the thin air as she was practicing her punches and kicks.
She also practiced her movements from rolling on the ground and rebound by using the tree, pretending it to be the ropes of the ring.
Everything Caesar learnt from Cedric yesterday, Caesar practiced.
Later again, Caesar was repeatedly kicking a tree as she was practicing her superkick.
Caesar then took a deep breath, hopped back a little and swung her leg again at the tree as she performed one last superkick.
Moments later, Caesar was jogging on the streets, wearing a black tank top, black joggers and black sneakers.
While jogging, Caesar halted for a time to catch her breath before she clenched her fists and resumed jogging again.
Later at home after Caesar had her bath and was sitting on her couch with both legs crossed while eating a sandwich and watching TV.
On the screen of the television, a dark skinned woman with long red hair, dressed in an office suit was speaking with a dark skinned man beside her.
"It has been days now since the escape of the asylum patients and there has been no luck on the police side in finding the remaining patient." The female said.
"Yes. The police has managed to capture all the mental health escapees. All except one." The dark skinned man said, "It’s either the patient is very good at hiding himself or he has moved to another city."
"Warnings are now being sent to everyone, if you see this man, please do not engage. Call the police instead." The woman said as the picture of the patient appeared before the screen, "This man is extremely dangerous."
The picture showed a bronze skinned beastfolk male that had long black hair that faded into white tips.
At the sides of his head were long slanted back horns.
The man also had blue irises and a stubble round his mouth.
"Reports have it that he bludgeoned nine guards into a coma with his bare hands." The female reporter continued, "Once again, if you see him, do not engage under any circumstances.
His name is-"
Caesar used the remote to change the channel and started watching two men, one was a fair skinned blonde and the other was a fair skinned brunette in a wrestling ring wrestle.
During the match, the brunette carried the fair skinned man on his shoulders, took a few steps forward and instantly turned the fireman carry into a sitout powerbomb.
"The final grace!" A masculine voice sounded.
Caesar in seeing that move, the memory of Nero powerbombing her so hard that blood spilled out of her mouth crashed into her head, leading her to snap her eyes shut.
The brunette then walked towards the camera and spoke.
"You see that?! That is ’wrestling’! Not that shit that porn company pretends to be!"
Caesar stared at the screen with her usual plain face and shrugged her shoulders before changing the channel again.
On the next channel, it was another wrestling promotion but it was between two fair skinned beastfolk women which made Caesar arch a brow.
"Yo, is this some kind of joke?" Caesar asked within.
However, a certain move caught Caesar’s eyes which was when the one of the women who had black hair and was standing at the apron of the ring, grabbed the other who had white hair by the arm as she stepped close towards her (the black haired beastfolk) and performed an armbar while using the ropes as a leverage, causing the one with the white hair to scream out in pain.
"Okay... I wasn’t familiar with her game. This looks pretty good." Caesar said.
The black haired beastfolk then used her arms to turn the white haired beastfolk upside down in a tombstone piledriver position.
The black haired woman then lowered her opponent’s body a little, wrapped her arms round the white haired’s legs, clamped the head of the white haired beastfolk with her thighs and still drove her head hard against the canvas.
"Sixty-nine missed shots!" A male commentator said.
While Caesar was watching, a knock resonated on her door which made her turn to the direction of the sound.
"Coming!" Caesar said as she stood on her feet.
Caesar walked towards the door, looked through the door hole and saw the person to be a fair skinned woman wearing a red cap with a red short sleeve top and blue jeans while having a lollipop in her mouth.
Caesar then opened the door and the woman glanced at her clipboard.
"Are you Caesar Moon?" The woman asked.
"Yeah." Caesar answered.
"Then this is for you:
Standard level neon weights- both wrists and ankles.
Diablo Dragonuv’s book of ’Brawlers domination’.
Conner Cage’s book of ’Wrestling in strong style’.
Coach Mackie’s book of ’Training like a god’ and a, uh..."
"Lady Katherine’s book of ’Anatomy and stimulation’?" The female said with an arched brow.
Caesar shrugged her shoulders and the female deliverer sighed.
"Just sign here." The female said as she gave Caesar the clipboard and a pen.
After Caesar had finished signing, the female took her clipboard and turned her gaze to the back.
"Oi! Bring the goods over here!" The female said.
A huge fair skinned male human with long messy yellow hair, wearing a similar dressing style like his partner, walked towards Caesar while carrying five boxes in his arms and stood close to her.
"Do you mind if I go in to place them?" He asked.
"Go in." Caesar said as she stepped aside.
As soon as the man entered, the female deliverer spoke.
"Okay. I know this is none of my business, especially with the last thing you hired, but... Why are you ordering standard neon weights? Are you an athlete or... I don’t know... Just why?"
"Well, I am something of an athlete myself." Caesar replied, "Something."
"Okay, but if you are starting, shouldn’t you be using the novice level type?" The female deliverer asked, "Those things are quite heavy and they could injure you."
"Now that doesn’t sound too bad, does it?" Caesar said.
While the female stared at Caesar in confusion, the huge male deliverer stepped out of Caesar’s house and turned towards Caesar.
"There. I’ve dropped the boxes." The man said.
"Good." Caesar replied as she turned her sights to him.
Caesar then turned to the female deliverer and spoke.
"Thank you for the delivery."
Caesar then closed her door and the female shifted her gaze to her partner.
"She weird." The female said.
"Isn’t the definition of people?" The male deliverer asked.
"Just get in." The female deliverer replied.
Meanwhile as Caesar stood in the living room, she placed her hand on her chin while staring down at the opened packages.
"Hmmm. Okay, which one do I go with first?" Caesar asked herself.
Caesar turned to the weights and slightly tilted her head.
"Okay, but if you are starting, shouldn’t you be using the novice level type?
Those things are quite heavy and they could injure you." The female deliverer’s voice replayed in Caesar’s head.
After remembering her words, Caesar still stared down at the items for a while.
"Nah. I can handle it." Caesar said, "I mean I’ve carried a bunch of heavy stuffs myself when I was just fifteen."
Her memory drifted up to her at the age of fifteen, struggling to carry four stacked boxes while a group of male beastfolk nearby casually hefted five or six each, chatting and laughing with each as they strolled past her.
"That was then. I’m stronger now, so this won’t be problem."
Caesar then carried the weight straps, walked towards her couch to sit and fastened them on her wrists and ankles carefully.
As soon as they were secured, Caesar decided to flex her arms experimentally but in doing that, she could feel the heaviness behind each movement.
Caesar then took a deep breath and decided to stand on her feet.
As soon as she stood, her knees began to wobble. Caesar still tried regardless to take a step forward but she staggered due to the weights dragging her down.
"What the...?"
Caesar tried raising her arms but the heaviness behind the straps were larger than before.
"Did this shit suddenly increase?!" Caesar asked in her head.
Caesar still tried to raise her arms and walk only for the weights to increase the fragility of her balance.
"Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!" Caesar said as she struggled to compose her stance.
"WOAH!!!" Caesar said as she finally lost her balance and crashed hard on the ground.
The sound of several items hitting the ground followed and after that moment, silence stayed.
"... Ow..." Caesar’s voice faintly sounded.
Later, Caesar sat on the ground, panting for air while staring at her trembling arms.
Despite her exhaustion, a small smile formed on her lips.
Caesar grunted as she stood on her feet and sluggishly raised her arms.
She took a fighting stance and threw a few jabs which were slow, and after her attempts, Caesar let out a soft laugh and dropped to her knees.
"Man. That was hell." Caesar said in her heart, "That reminds me, I haven’t called Rai and Eyo, today."
Caesar then turned her sights towards her arms and weights strapped on her wrists.
"Maybe later. I need to rest." Caesar said to herself.
Giving in to her exhaustion, Caesar laid on the floor and fell fast asleep.
