Chapter 9

Isis Todd and Alexis rode uptown to the Apollo the tension of nervousness between them could be cut with a knife.

They didn't want to say what they were thinking if he won Todd's rap career would be fast forward.

Todd went in through the stage door kissing his mom and Isis, here Toddy she passed him the golden staff. What's this? Todd smiled.

Cecily and I iced it out we went to the DIY store and got some white stones took us all week to ice out the baton and epoxy it over so the stones would stay on. That's why I couldn't look at PBS with you on Wednesday.

You were so upset I missed the valley of the king's. They don't repeat those episodes Isis when they put our history on TV we have to make an effort to view it but baby I understand thank you so much.

Go Todd I'll sit in the middle to rile the crowd like I alway's do.

Todd as usual sat in the back listening to battles as predicted Mental made it to the last stand against him. Mental 17 year's old and Todd just making 13.

He was a street rapper raw to his core in truth Todd loved his style if he made an album he would definitely buy it.

Tonight he needed to win and not be intimidated by his completion he looked to his father's photo taped in the middle of his rap note book.

He took a deep breath hearing the crowd chant his name TUT! TUT! TUT! Isis made the wind blow everyone joined her as he entered center stage light glistening of the lion headed bejeweled baton.

The host of the show touched Todd's shoulder as usual the reigning champion chooses who battles first. As usual Todd chose Mental.

The beat started:
