Jaden opened his eyes and saw himself standing in the other world again. The air was dark and heavy. In front of him stood a huge monster with glowing red eyes and sharp claws. The ground shook each time the monster moved. Jaden clenched his fists and ran forward. He didn’t think, he just reacted.

The monster roared, swinging its arm at him. Jaden jumped, landing a quick kick to its face. The creature staggered back, growling. Jaden moved fast, trying to land another punch — but right before his fist connected, his eyes opened again.

He was back in the real world.

His heart pounded, his skin covered in sweat. The dim light from the gym’s window showed it was still early morning. Jaden had fallen asleep on the gym mat again, and the nightmare — or vision — had pulled him back into that strange world.

He sat up, breathing hard. His hands were shaking. “What’s happening to me?” he muttered quietly.

He got up, threw some water on his face, and stepped outside. The air was cool. Without wa

    The following morning, the air was cold and filled with mist. The ground was still wet from the night’s dew. Jaden stood on the field, stretching his legs and arms while a cameraman from a sports channel prepared his filming equipment. It was supposed to be a short morning run shoot—nothing serious, just something to show fans how he trained every day.He adjusted his hoodie and began jogging slowly down the empty street while the reporter followed behind with the camera. The sound of his feet hitting the pavement mixed with the faint hum of the city waking up.Everything was going smoothly until a man wearing a black hoodie stepped out from the side of the road. He looked around to make sure no one was following him, then called out, “Jaden Cross?”Jaden stopped running and frowned. “Yeah, how can I help you?”The man smiled faintly and reached into his pocket, showing a business card. “Name’s Troy. I’m a promoter. I’ve been watching your fights lately—you’ve got something special.

    The next morning, Sims’ gym was in chaos.Camera lights flashed everywhere. Reporters filled the entrance, microphones out, shouting over each other just to get a word from Jaden. Vans from sports channels were parked outside, blocking half the street. Every single person wanted the same thing—an exclusive interview.Inside, Jaden sat quietly on a bench, wrapping his hands with tape. Damon stood by his side, trying to keep the crowd at bay.“Guys, calm down!” Damon yelled. “He’s not ready yet!”“Ready?” a reporter shouted back. “He’s fighting Marco Vieri in two weeks! The world wants to hear from him!”Sims walked out of his office, clapping his hands loudly. “Alright, alright! Everyone, take a step back. He’ll answer your questions—but one at a time!”The shouting lowered a little, but the cameras were still rolling.Jaden looked up, expression calm. “Let’s get this over with.”The first reporter stepped forward, holding her mic close. “Jaden Cross, you’re about to face one of the mo

    The news of Jaden’s win spread like wildfire.Everywhere people talked about him. From the gyms to the bars, from the clubs to the online forums—his name was the hottest thing in Spain.But not everyone was happy.In the UUFC headquarters, the owner, Mr. Castillo, slammed his hand on the table. “This is getting out of hand!” he barked. “Every fighter we set up against Jaden is backing out!”One of the managers swallowed hard. “Sir, they’re all scared. No one wants to risk their record fighting him. They say he’s… unpredictable.”“Unpredictable?” Mr. Castillo snapped. “He’s a rookie who lost ten fights before! Ten! What’s there to be scared of?”“Sir, that’s the problem,” another staff said quietly. “They’re saying he’s not the same person anymore. The way he knocked out each of his opponents—it wasn’t normal.”Mr. Castillo glared at them. “I don’t care if he’s a demon or a saint. Someone needs to fight him. If none of those cowards step up, I’ll cut their contracts. All of them!”He s

    The crowd went wild. The whole arena was shaking with cheers and screams as Jaden stood in the middle of the ring. Camera flashes exploded from every corner like tiny bursts of lightning. Reporters shouted his name, fans waved flags, and the announcer’s voice echoed through the speakers.“The winner—by knockout—Jaden Cross!”The referee walked over, lifted Jaden’s hand into the air, and the entire stadium erupted again. It was chaos—beautiful chaos. Spain had just witnessed something unforgettable.Damon was jumping up and down by the ringside, shouting at the top of his lungs. “You did it, bro! You freaking did it!”Punisher was banging his fist on the ring post. “That’s what I’m talking about! The beast is awake!”Jaden smiled faintly, breathing heavily. Sweat dripped down his chin, but his eyes were calm. He took the microphone the referee handed him and looked around the crowd.“Spain!” he shouted. The cheers grew even louder. “I told you I’d give it my all. And I did.”The fans

    The school hallway was packed. Everyone had heard what happened between Caleb and Frederick, the news has spread and the entire building was buzzing.“Did you hear? Caleb punched Fred!” a girl whispered as she passed by.“No way. Fat Caleb? The quiet kid?” another student said, laughing.“I swear! Nelson was there. He said Caleb hit him right in the face.”By lunchtime, the rumor had spread to every corner of the school. Some students even started making bets.“I’ll put five bucks on Fred,” one of the boys said, smirking. “That chubby kid doesn’t stand a chance.”“Make it ten,” another said. “Fred’s gonna crush him.”A few students, though, weren’t so sure. They remembered the look in Caleb’s eyes when he stood up to Fred. There was something new about him—something different.When the crowd gathered behind the gym, phones were already out. Everyone wanted to record it. Fred was already there, standing tall with his arms crossed. His black hoodie was halfway zipped, showing off his m

    The chirping sound of the birds woke Jaden up. Punisher and Damon had decided not to wake him. Giving him the time he needs to fully heal up. Jaden woke up the next morning feeling… calm. Really calm. His body didn’t ache like it usually did after the visions. He stretched, yawning, and rubbed his eyes.Damon and Rikers were already waiting outside, leaning against the car. Both of them were staring at him like he was some kind of freak.“You good, man?” Damon finally asked, raising an eyebrow.“I’m fine,” Jaden said, tying his shoes. “I slept well.”Punisher snorted. “Slept? Dude, you looked like you just wrestled a bear in your sleep. You sure you’re ready for this fight?”“I am,” Jaden said calmly. He grabbed his gym bag and headed to the car.Both of them looked at him as he walked ahead of them. They knew that they don't have to ask twice if he was ready or not. Jaden was always ready. And fighting, it was what he does. As they drove through the streets, the city felt alive. P
