I stopped in my tracks, causing my guard to run into me. “Keep moving!” he demanded. At this, Hunter stopped as well and in a matter of seconds, the plan was in action.

"Get up, Snowflake!" I moaned, weakly pushed myself off the dirt ground of the arena. My everything hurts. I slowly make my way to my feet and hardly dodged another oncoming attack from Scorpion. Ever if we were friends, he was still brutal when we trained. He didn’t disagree with the monks for keeping me around, but he didn’t think I needed to be trained to fight.

The accomplished actor, screenwriter and producer, he has closely worked with legendary Martial Artist Bruce Lee in many films. At 75, he remains a legend, untouched by time. Ever since the year 2005, there were many internet trolls and memes directed at him, which, though fictional and some of them highly absurd in nature, have been invented on top of the glorious life of this man.

I remember it so vividly, I was at her house and she came up to me beaming, the light was bouncing off of her face she looked like she had just discovered some hidden treasure.
