Fight to the Finish Page #5

---

Get rid of it.

'Cause only then

will you truly be at peace.

Thanks, man.

That's What I'm here for.

Feel better?

Yeah.

There he is, yeah!

Gabriel, What are you

doing here?

I'm Working.

I know that, I just wanna talk.

No more apologies, OK.

It's over.

Where is this coming from?

You know What I've been through.

OK, yes, I've been upset.

Is that What you were, upset?

All the other times?

That's not me anymore.

I've changed.

I'm trying to change here.

Yeah, so you go

and beat up my neighbor.

What was I supposed to do,

let him show me up in front of you?

That's not going to happen.

You still love me.

I know you do.

I need you to leave.

- Baby...

- Gabriel, Gage,

or whatever the hell

people are calling you,

I Want you to leave.

Or What?

I'm going to call security

if you don't leave.

Call the cops for all I care.

See! Why do you keep doing this?

It's always the same thing.

You are never going to change.

Scream and I'll break your neck.

No one will ever

love you like I do.

- What?

- Why are you sitting here moping?

I'm not... I'm not moping.

I just...

I don't think she's coming, man.

Who? Your naughty neighbor?

Dude,

there's other girls here, man.

Yeah, I know. But...

Just give me a second, alright

and I'll see you out

there on the dance floor, man.

No, man, look. I've been

listening to you a lot lately.

It's time you listen to me.

Get up and enjoy the party, dude.

Live a little.

Please!

OK. You're right.

Come on, let me introduce you.

- I've got a couple of cuties for you.

- OK.

Let's see What it's about.

Come on.

Yo! Word on the street is that

punk's having a party tonight.

That bastard is going to get

the rematch of a lifetime.

Plus, the whole neighborhood

is going to be there, too.

He's going to know tonight,

that when you enter my world,

you dance to my beat,

I don't dance to yours.

And, since we weren't invited,

I guess We're crashing this party.

Fancy seeing you here.

Wow! I didn't think

you were going to make it.

Well, the drive was really far.

So, I guess

you kinda owe me one.

OK, well... how about

I make it up to you in beer'?

That Works!

I just Want him.

If his little buddy acts up...

you take him.

I got him.

I'm really glad you came.

Me, too.

Hey, are you lost or something?

Naw, I ain't lost.

I'm here to party

like everyone else.

Yo, this is invite only. I don't

remember Facebooking you.

Why don't you got find some

business before you go missing.

Hey, don't I know you

from somewhere?

- Aww, damn...

- Let's get ready to party.

So this is who you left me for?

What are you doing here,

Gabriel?

A man should be able

to go Where he pleases.

I agree, just not in my house.

You need to leave.

You're not going to let me

celebrate your new pad?

Nope. You do need to leave.

Don't be a bad host.

I mean, I think you should

at least get me

something to drink.

Look, man, I'm really trying

to be nice here.

Trying to be nice, is that What

Melissa's told you?

How nice I was to her

and how much she liked it?

Shut up, Gabriel.

And What are you going to do?

What have you ever done...

That's the spirit.

- Come on, Gage.

- Come on, Sean.

- Hit him Sean, go!

- Come on, Gage!

- Yeah!

- Come on, Sean, get up!

- Come on, Sean, get up!

- Yeah!

- Whoa!

- Come on, Sean, go!

Let him get

What's coming to him!

My boy's gonna rip his head off

and guess What, you're next!

I'm right here, punk.

Stop!

Look out, move!

- Sean! Sean, bro, you OK?

- Billy?

Come on, man, We've gotta

get you to a hospital.

- No.

- Come on, man,

we gotta get you to a hospital.

Just get everybody out of here.

- You good, man?

- Just get everybody out of here.

Alright, you heard him, get out!

Go. Come on!

Party is over, let's go. Go!

Come on, let's go. Go, get out.

You kicked his ass, bro.

It was awesome.

Looks like you saw

some action yourself.

Yeah, a little bit.

Nothing compared to you though.

I Want him dead.

I think the party fight

pretty much sealed the deal.

No, I'm serious.

I Want him beat down until

there is no more life in him.

Gage, it's over. OK?

The kid is done.

It's over when I say it's over.

- Relax man, it's over.

- Don't tell me to relax, Billy!

This guy comes into my house,

embarrasses me in front of everybody!

You kicked his ass and he kicked yours.

When it gonna end, dude?

It ends when I put his face

into the ground, Billy.

And then what,

you go to jail, again?

You know you're not

getting out this time, right?

Seeing Melissa with him tonight.

Dude, that's the past.

You're going to have to

let that go.

I Won't let it go.

As soon as he

threw that first punch,

as soon as he came into my life,

as soon as he kissed her,

this thing

has gotten real serious.

And I tell you What,

it's far from over.

Release it, man,

come train with me.

Get back stronger.

Let's get him in the ring

and end this once and for all.

Train with you?

This isn't a competition, Billy.

This is my life. This is real.

I know, man. I know it's real.

So is the offer

I'm about to give you.

I have an idea.

I got a buddy of mine, runs this thing

called the Fight Future Competition.

It gets fighters Where they need

to go pro. Ever hear of that?

Yeah, so What?

So, let's take it in the ring.

We'll end it there.

You think I should end it there?

Kick his ass, man, legit!

Yeah?

Alright, I'm listening.

Get the rematch you want,

the cash, the contract,

and... the respect.

I can call the trainer.

Make it happen.

Silas, my man.

- It's been forever.

- What's up?

What's up, man?

You've got some nerve

bringing this guy into here.

Mr. Gooding, I apologize

for What happened in your class.

But that kid

would just not let up.

How's he doing?

How's he doing?

He's in a Wheel chair.

That's how he's doing.

Look, I don't

have time for this.

Silas, Silas,

just listen to him.

Just give him a chance.

I wanna go pro. I need your

training now, more than ever.

You got a fight

lined up or something?

Yeah. You know that competition,

Fight Future?

I just need you

to tell me What to do to get it.

If I do this, you have to show up

on time and do exactly as I say.

- You two go meet me in my office.

- Yes, sir.

Alright.

- Silas!

- Billy. Sean...

Mr. Gooding.

Wow, what happened to your face'?

This? It's nothing.

You should

see the other guy, right?!

- That's right.

- What's going on?

- We need your help, champ.

- For What?

Fight Future.

Fight Future?

Dad? What are you doing here?

I need to talk to you.

Sean, your mother

heard What happened.

I'll talk to her tomorrow,

I'll stop by the house.

No. She doesn't

Want you at the house.

And she doesn't Want you

around Jake anymore.

Did you forget everything

that I taught you?

Everything that Kiko taught you?

He came into my house, Dad.

He Went after Melissa.

What the hell was I supposed...

Don't you dare

raise your voice with me, son.

- I am still your father.
