Faust, Nick, Roy and Tim all have the same kind of thinking. That it is so cool when you fight a higher class men, win and make them run with their tails between their legs.
They hoped that one day after they beat the air out of the high schoolers, they gain popularity, all the people in school will fear them, rush to come see them and bow down to them respectfully as they walk in the middle of a corridor, where people from two groups and crest a path for them to walk through.
To make their dream come true, they had always hung out together making several plans to beat the high schoolers. And suddenly, the auspicious day of their first fight arrives, they were prepared to go all out.
Nick came running to Faust wearing a severe expression on his face. He came and grabbed the wrist of Faust "Faust! we gotta go, come with me!" Nick yells out at Faust while breathing panting for breath.
"What happened Nicko! Chill and learn to enjoy the life yo!" Faust says casually while sleeping on the floor and reading a comic, without even taking a glance at the exhausted Nick.
"Just come, will you! Jerk!" Nick pulls Faust like a little kid by force, smacks his head to make him sit on his bicycle and drives off as Roy and Tim join them along the way on their own bikes.
"So are you really telling us the truth?" Roy asks Nick with an intense look on his face.
"Of course! He really is arrogant, fearless and most of all hailed as the strongest in his grade. Picking fights with everyone without ever losing a fight. We need to let him have a taste of his first loss." Nick declares with an evil grin.
"If he is as arrogant and strong as you say he is, then we definitely need to take him down," Roy says as excitement erects inside him. He strongly feels that the bully needs to know his place and it's a nice opportunity to establish the power of these four among the school by taking down this bully.
On the other hand, Faust doesn't really get what is happening, but he can see that they are going to have a fight and he is dead scared to go into his first fight. He soon realises that his limbs are not in his authority anymore, he is quivering in fear and his heart is beating fast faster than ever, almost as his whole chest is throbbing without rest.
He feels like a coward for cowering, he wanted to make up his mind for his first-ever fight. He takes a glimpse at his friends to see if he is the only one feeling uneasy. What he saw left him open-mouthed, all of his three friends were just as scared as him.
"This is really a pressured situation, but I'm gonna do it for my friends and myself!" Faust whispers to himself while gathering up his courage to take on anything that awaits him.
As they finally reached the place, the serious expression they had on their face started to disappear along with their nervousness. They're all standing in front of the fearless bully that Nick highly spoke off.
But to their surprise, the fearless and unbeatable kid that Nick told them about is a 6 years old cute kid standing in front of them with his arms resting on his hips.
Roy cannot express his feelings, he is too disappointed to even let his emotions be seen, he just stands there thinking to himself *"Find me a glass of water, please bring a glass of water, no not glass I'm gonna find a building and jump down from the roof. Guys don't stop me now. I'm going to the roof* Roy fights with his inner self. "Oiii NICK! is This the KID you talked about?" He asks while gritting his teeth.
Roy is beyond disappointed that even death can't save him from this embarrassment. A normal death by drowning is too easy so he wanted to embarrass himself even more by wanting to drown in a glass of water.
On the other hand, Faust is way too relaxed when he realised that they are going to fight with a kid. He sarcastically smiled without realizing it.
Nick hesitatingly steps ahead, getting closer to the kid to introduce his friends who are standing behind him with pride and honour as if Nick is going to introduce them as legendary weapons in his artillery.
"Faust! Master brown belt in kickboxing" - Nick yells right in Kid's face.
*Awkward Silence*
The only martial art Nick was ever exposed to is karate and he doesn't really know what kickboxing is, he thinks, karate rules apply to every other martial art.
Faust looks at Nick with surprise and admiration as tears started streaming out from his eyes.
*"Na-Na-Na.... uwahhhh.** He calms his inner cry baby *"Nachos poop you!!! YOU even know about kickboxing and the belts I posses, you even estimated my strength with brown belt which is way higher than black belt didn't you?*Faust thinks to himself while crying inside.
Faust himself doesn't know what kickboxing or karate or what those freaking belts are given for, he estimated that in karate the belt with more exquisite colour is powerful of all. According to him, plain black coloured and most commonly used belt is the lowest level. And a multi-coloured belt rainbow-like belt, which never existed and will never exist and if already exists I(author) hope it is cursed and is in the depths of hell and no one can ever reach it.
~~Break Time~~
According to Faust, the multi-coloured belt is the highest level of all. He estimated strength with fashion.
Nick continues on with his yelling not even caring if it's right or not.
"Roy, also a purple belt in space hero" Nick announces majestically.
*Double Awkward silence*
"There is only one belt for space heroes with a button in the middle. Which, when pressed gives us wings(a reference to his space hero toy)" Roy tells Nick in a low embarrassed voice.
No words to explain the kid's innocence at all.
stupid little kids.
Cute stupid little kids.
Shitty cute stupid little kids.
Dammi, all kids shitty kids.
Kids.kids.kids kids kids.kidssssss.
~~Intense break time~~
Nick looks at Tim and yells to the kid - "The higher class senpai!"And he seems to enter deep thinking realm, he comes out to shout "THAT'S IT!" Without knowing what else to say about Tim, as he don't play heroes of the school like the other three.
"you still wanna fight?" - Nick asks while giving a rough flick to the kid's forehead.
Tim however is so disappointed and was left in shock that everyone can see his soul leaving the earth.
In the meantime, Faust steps up ahead, cracks his fingers and stares at the kid with a scary face and the rest of his friends followed Faust in doing the same.
The poor kid who couldn't even talk properly is overwhelmed by the four as tears gather in his eyes. Especially with scary Nick who keeps flicking the forehead of the kid until it becomes red.
~No kids were harmed during this~
"MOMMY, THESE BIG GUYS ARE BULLYING ME!!.... wahhhh" the kid starts to cry in a very loud and leecherous voice.
The adults, villagers and even some beautiful high school girls in the alley, stopped in their tracks to glare at Faust and his friends.
"Whaa-- dammit you better remember this and cry a lot and tell everyone in your school not to mess with us!" Nick yells as he grabs his bike to make a run for it. Faust and the rest follow after Nick quickly and they happily ride back home cheerfully, thinking their first fight is a huge success.
Most of the kids don't pick on these four, because of the higher classmen Tim who look serious all the time, Nick who is 4 feet 3 inches at the age of 8 with big buff body like his dad and Roy because he is a noble. Whereas Faust at 8 is less than 3'5" with thin arms and a tiny body.
After reaching home, Faust cheerfully plays with Bella, checks on all the eggs in and out of incubators, helps his grandpa with preparing dinner and enjoys the view of the village while sitting on top of the hill with Bella as he waits patiently for storytime.
"Grandpa! Nick is so knowledgeable" - Faust starts talking to his grandpa while both arrange the animals in their places for the night and his grandpa tuck him in bed after finishing their job neatly.
"Really? What did he do to gain your recognition?" Gus asks while kindly smiling towards Faust.
"He knows that there is a brown belt in kickboxing, and also a purple belt in space hero. I wish I was that knowledgeable." Faust replies while he pulls his bed near the window so he can watch the village as he sleeps
"Hahaha" Gus starts laughing and asks a question curiously "so you like these ancient martial arts that Nick told you about?."
"Of course I do! People can do anything with martial arts" Faust replies with a smile.
"Anything huh..." Gus mumbles to himself with a little unseen grim on his face, as if he knew that martial arts that can help people to do anything doesn't really exist.
"Come now Faust, I will tell you a story about a superhero with a sword that can cut mountains and air as it changes colours" Gus surprises Faust with his words.
