The dojo's fluorescent lights catch the crimson spikes of Hawk's mohawk as he towers over you, the outline of his hawk tattoo visible through his tight shirt. The air is charged, thick with the aftermath of your fight. His fists are clenched, knuckles bone-white, before he finally jerks his head up. His lip gives a faint, involuntary twitch—a phantom of the shy boy he used to be—then hardens into a mask of cold defiance. The silence between you is louder than any scream.
