Everybody spread out to do their own thing. So we'll see what Leslie and Fila are doing. They were next to a river to train.
"So to start off I need to know something. Do you have any clue on how to use Qompo?" Fila asked.
"Nothing. Oh! I know you can make a barrier." Leslie responded.
"Do you know how to?"
"Nope."
Fila gave a little pity laugh "Alright so. Qompo is an energy that can forever grow stronger. It's inside every living thing on this planet and probably the universe. When you learn how to use it you can do stuff like this." Fila formed a sword out of water. "Qompo also makes you stronger and faster as well. I specialize in healing. But I can fight." Fila swung the sword at a tree across the river and split it in half without looking or trying.
"Woah...so how do I start?" Leslie asked.
"Well, I want you to give you a good foundation. Close your eyes." Leslie followed the orders as Fila spoke. "Now hold your hands up like you have a ball in your hands. Now each time you breathe it's powering the ball of energy you have in your hand. So breath in deep. Now breath out." When Leslie did water started to form in the middle of her hands. Then she opened her eyes.
"What the! I'm doing it!" Leslie looked at the ball of water she made.
"Good! The fact that you were able to open your eyes and keep that water form even after losing focus means you're a natural. It's really impressive." Fila smiled warmly and looked proud.
"I definitely got the best teacher." Leslie thought to herself.
"Hmm. Because that came so naturally. Think about the water changing shape. Choose a weapon and imagine its shape. And change your water form."
"Alright. I got this." Leslie took a deep breath. Then the water started changing shape. Slowly until it was shaped like a bow.
"Nice job!" Fila's eyes lit up with happiness.
"That hurt my brain to pull off. And my bow looks kinda sloppy." Leslie's bow looked like it was about to fall apart.
"It's your first time. You just need more practice. I want you to try this over and over again for a little while. And you will get better and better." Fila sat down against a tree to watch her progress.
"Alright." Leslie disburses the water then reforms it again.
Meanwhile...
"Run faster!" Slita yelled as she sat on top of the bolder that she strapped to Avery.
"This some bullshit!" Avery yelled as he struggled to even walk with this bolder strapped to his back.
"All I asked was for you to drag it 1 mile you worm! It's going to take all night going this slow! Do I need to get a whip!?" Slita looked like a demon!
"NO! I'm trying! Just wait a little while!" Avery was putting all his might into pulling.
While Avery was being tortured...
"So you want to be a swordsman?" Siro crossed his arms.
"Yes." Angel nodded.
"Alright then first you need to learn how to form a sword out of Qompo." Siro was putting Angel through the same training Leslie was going through. An hour later...
"I did it! I finally did it!" Angel made a ball of fire.
"Good job. You understood quicker than I thought you would. Now moving on."
Meanwhile...
"Good job." Tolow gave Richard a little clap.
Richard was sitting in the river and was freezing the water to ice.
"I can't freeze it that far yet." Richard looked at the ice he made.
"3 feet is good for a beginner. You just need to practice more. One day you'll be able to freeze 30 feet." Tolow said leaning back and looking at the sky.
"I know. I'm just too good." Richard said as he unfroze some of the water he froze.
And for Osdy's training by the river farther down it.
"...Try to make your punches like pellets that move so fast they could split the water...or whatever." Simon was reading a book while leaning against a tree.
"I can try." Osdy punched and the water didn't look like it moved.
"For every time you don't see it working. do 10 push-ups." Simon didn't lift his head from his book.
"Aw, man. Whatever." Osdy started doing push-ups.
And now back to Leslie...
"Looks like you can make your bow pretty good now. How's about a break? Unless you can keep going." Fila looked proud.
"I can keep going." Leslie's bow was super slick.
"Alright then. Now try to fire an arrow. Form an arrow as you pull the string of the bow back."
Leslie pulled the string back, then took a deep breath.
"Now fire with the intent to hit something."
Leslie let the arrow go and it managed to cross the river but not hit a tree because it unformed too fast.
"Aw, man. Let me try again. Hold on I got this." Leslie pulled back the string again and tried over and over again.
"It's getting closer. Let me focus more." Leslie closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Then she pulled back her string and the arrow started to form. "I can do this." Leslie thought to herself. She focused more time on making the arrow. Then she opened her eyes quickly and released the arrow and it struck one of the trees and took out a piece.
"I did it!" Leslie jumped up out of excitement then felt woozy.
"Good job." Fila caught her and sat her down. "You used too much Qompo. Be more careful."
"Oh. Well, at least I did it." Leslie relaxed and listened to the sounds of the river and the nice warm wind.
"It was said that one of the weapons that were supposed to appear in the temple was a bow." Fila sat next to Leslie.
"So I'm a weapon?"
"N-no that's not what I meant at all, sorry. I just thought that...maybe the prophecy was never said to be the other thing with the heroes. I don't know. I'm kinda happy though. feels like some weights have been lifted off me." Fila smiled as the sun made her hair glow.
"I see. I'm not sure if I'm willing to fight in this war or not. But if I do I need to be able to keep up. But I think no matter what I do I need to stay positive. I'll go crazy if I don't. Especially being around my annoying friends." Leslie chuckled a little.
"Didn't one of your friends go leave to do something? His name was Cari, right?"
"Yeah. I have no clue what he's doing right now. That guy is insane."
"He seems like... a lot to handle. Wait that came out wrong! I didn't mean it like that!" Fila's face turned red.
Leslie laughed a little bit "I got what you meant."
Meanwhile in the forest...
Cari and Kemuri were wondering. Cari also did get some new pants.
"So what are we doing out here anyway?" Kemuri asked.
"I'm looking for a demon deer."
"They love being near the river for water. So we should see one sooon oh! There is one right there." Kemuri pointed.
"Good shit," Cari said then he stepped out of the woods and stood on the deer's left. The deer looked at Cari. Then It rushed at Cari! Cari stood there then as the deer went to stab Cari with its antlers, Cari stopped it by grabbing both of the deer antlers. Then he punched it right on the head and made it stumble. Then he punched the top of the deer's head again and it dropped to the ground.
"This is definitely easier than the first time I did this. Did I get stronger from almost dying? I don't feel anything from beating this deer. If it's true I'm getting stronger it must be each time I am in extreme danger." Cari thought to himself.
"Nice job! Anyway how about me and you train for a little bit?" Kemuri said as he jumped on Cari's shoulders.
"Yeah. Let's do it."
"My way of training is the most aggressive out of everybody. So don't hold back or else you'll die! Ok?" His very kiddish voice did not stop him from being any less powerful.
"I'm ready." Cari smiled.
"Alright then. Let's get started." Suddenly Kemuri was right in front of Cari. He punched Cari in his chest and sent Cari back a few feet, then kicked Cari to make him stop rolling. He stood him up then punched Cari into the water then stomped on his back.
"This is going to be fun." Cari thought to himself with his smile.
Back to Leslie...
"Knowing him, he's probably doing something really crazy." Leslie let out a sigh.
"That's not good. Kemuri is kinda crazy himself. He loves fights. two crazies together...is probably not good." Fila nervously smiled.
"Well, I guess I should get back to training." Leslie stood up and formed her bow easily.
"This time try shooting down the riverway so you don't keep destroying trees."
"Alright." Leslie nodded.
Some hours passed and the sun started going down.
"Hey, Leslie that's enough for today. Let's head back before dark." Fila stood up.
"Alright." Leslie disburses her bow and follows Fila back.
Meanwhile...
"You only made it halfway! Try harder next time!" Slita hopped off the boulder and started walking away.
"Yes ma'am." Avery was covered in sweat and was out of breath.
And now Richard.
"Hey, It's getting dark. Let's go back." Tolow told Richard.
"Alright." Richard stood up and got out of the water and followed Tolow back.
And now Osdy.
Simon closed his book "Let's go. It's getting dark."
"Alright." Osdy wiped away his sweat.
And now angel.
"Hey, that's enough. It's getting dark." Siro said.
Angel disbursed his really sloppy formed sword "Alright. I'll get it tomorrow."
And Now for Cari.
"It's getting dark, let's go home." Kemuri Looked at Cari, Cari was bleeding from his face and his mouth, His arms, His chest had a big cuts across it too.
"I can't stand right now. I've lost too much blood." But Cari still smiled.
"I guess I'll carry you then." Kemuri lifted Cari onto his back and sped off to the castle.
"I can't feel my arms. Everything is going dark. I'm about to pass out from blood loss." Cari thought to himself.
"Hey, stay alive. If you die then I'll feel guilty for a week." Kemuri said, speeding up.
Meanwhile at the training ground...
"Looks like everybody is here except for Cari and Kemuri. This is probably bad." Fila thought to herself.
"After what Fila told me I'm kinda concerned Cari might have died." Leslie thought to herself.
"What is taking them so long?" Avery said, crossing his arms.
"Bro wait. So impatient." Richard told Avery.
"Bro shut up," Avery responded.
"Avery shut up." Angel jumped in.
"Shut the fuck up, Angel." Avery looked at Angel.
"Hey, we're back!" Kemuri said, jumping onto the arena.
Then he set Cari down. He looked nearly dead.
"Oh shit!" Angel yelled.
"Oh no!" Fila immediately started healing Cari.
"What happened!?" Richard asked Kemuri.
"I trained him. He had fun, don't worry." Kemuri brushed it off.
"Kemuri! This is unacceptable!" Fila yelled at Kemuri.
"...Are people yelling? I can't see. I'm about to pass out..." Then for the first time in a while, Cari fell asleep.
"It's all your fault!" A girl cried out.
"Help me! Help me! Cari!" A girl reached out her hand.
"I'm coming!" Cari rushed to her but then fell into the water and started sinking.
"Fuck!" Cari swam up and just barely made it above water. Then he heard the girl screaming from beyond.
"Help Me!!"
"I'm coming no matter what!" Cari stood on the water and started running. Then chains shot through his legs and arms.
"Get off of me!!" Cari kept pulling the chains.
"I'm coming! MAS-...." Then Cari woke up. Out of breath and sweating. Cari looked around the room he was in. It was a big bedroom with two big glass windows that had white curtains. And the carpet was blue. It was the next day.
"...This is why I hate sleep. I always get my ass kicked." Cari wiped the sweat from his head then got up and stretched. He threw a few jabs and bounced around.
"I can feel it. I'm definitely stronger." Cari looked at his hand then a maid walked in.
"Excuse me-" She stopped in her tracks when she saw that Cari was naked
"Sorry, sir!" The maid turned around.
"What?" Cari looked down and noticed he was naked. "Oh. Sorry about that." Cari wrapped up in his cover.
"You need something?" Cari asked the maid.
"I was just here to bring you food. Fila said you were going to wake up around this time." The maid showed him the tray.
"Oh snap. I'm super hungry right now. Thanks." Cari walked over and grabbed the tray and sat down on his bed.
"O-oh no need to thank me sir-"
"Hey drop the sir would ya. I'm just a normal...well I'm just a guy. I'm pretty weird though." Cari took a bite of his food.
"Oh. Ok, then what should I call you?"
"Stonedick69."
"W-what!?"
Cari burst out into laughter "I'm kidding. Just call me Cari."
"That's reasonable. Alright, then Cari. I have to go."
"Wait what's your name?"
"It's Nlusa."
"Cool. I'll see ya later then." Cari smiled and waved goodbye.
Meanwhile...
Leslies arrows were going way farther and were way stronger.
"She's progressing fast. It's amazing to see." Fila thought to herself.
"I wonder If I could...?" Leslie turned and shot at a tree and the arrow went straight through. "Nice! I finally did it!" Leslie bounced around a little.
"Nice job Leslie. Now I want to teach you how to fire multiple arrows at the same time. First, form 2 water arrows."
"Ok." Leslie did it easily.
"Now un=form one of them. Good. Now pull your string back as you would for one arrow and form one. Now try forming floating arrows."
"What? How?"
"Close your eyes and focus. Focus and two balls of water forming by your head."
"Alright." She sat there for a minute... then water started forming by her head.
"Now make the water sharp."
The water next to Leslie's head turned into arrows.
"Now fire with the intent to hit something!"
Leslie opened her eyes then aimed at a tree and the 3 arrows took out a tree.
"Woah...that was cool." Leslie was shocked by her own power.
Fila started clapping "Nice job. you're a fast learner. It took me hours to learn that." Fila gave Leslie a warm smile.
"Thanks." Leslie smiled a bit. "I wonder how everybody else is doing."
Welp let's see how Osdy is doing.
Osdy threw a punch and the water split a little. The more he trains the more the water would split.
"Yeah! Looks like I'm doing something. I don't know how but it's working, whatever I'm doing." Osdy smiled and punched the air again and split the water a little bit more.
"His Qompo energy is rising fast." Simon thought to himself. "He's definitely going to get this by the end of the week if not before. That means I'll actually have to start teaching him. This sucks." Simon's cold sad aura grew larger.
Now for Richard...
"8 feet. That's better than yesterday's." Tolow said, giving Richard applause.
"I can do better. But thanks." Richard had his eyes closed trying to concentrate.
"I heard all your friends are progressing fast though. If you don't get better they're going to leave you behind." Tolow said with a sinister grin.
Suddenly Richard froze 13 feet of water. "You were saying?" Richard didn't even bother to look at Tolow.
"...Nevermind I guess."
"This guy is weird." Richard thought to himself. "I wonder...Could I do that?" Richard unfroze the water then froze it again and made it spiky. "Looks like it worked. Screw this guy I can learn this by myself."
And now to Angel...
"I did it!" Angel made a nice-looking fire sword.
"Nice job Angel. Try it one more time just to see if you got it down perfectly." Siro smiled a little bit.
"Alright." Angel disbursed the fire sword then reformed it without effort. "It came more naturally that time. This is so cool." Angel stared at his sword in amazement.
"Good that means you're only going to get better from here." Siro pulled out a wooden sword. "I will be training you with this."
"Won't my flames burn the wood?" Angel asked.
"I know how to use Qompo Reinforcement. Also, known as QR. It's the ability to reinforce something with your Qompo to make it stronger. So the only way this wood burns is if your fire is hot enough to do so." Siro got in ready in a Seigan No Kamae stance. "Come at me when you like."
Welp, instead of seeing Angel getting his ass kicked let's go to Avery.
"Pull! you sad excuse for a man!" Silta yelled at Avery as he pulled the boulder a little better than what he did yesterday.
"I hate this so! Much!" Avery grunted as he pulled.
Looks like his training is going Alright. Moving on. Back to Cari...
"I need to make my own clothes. They got me in these white night with a small pipe ass clothes." Cari said as he tried to fix his collar. Cari left out of his room and started wandering the hallways. Then suddenly. "Looks like you're awake." Kemuri appeared right behind Cari and tapped his shoulder.
"Do yall move that fast just to flex on us or something?" Cari asked.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Kemuri tilted his head in confusion,
"Nevermind. Wassup?" Cari began walking again.
Kemuri skipped along his side, "Everybody is out training right now. You wanna do the same?"
"You felt that I've gotten stronger haven't you?" Cari looked at Kemuri and smiled. "you just want somebody to fight."
"Oh, no was I that obvious." Kemuri had a sad puppy face. "Anyway. So do you want to fight?"
"I do." When Cari said that Kemuri perked up.
"Alright let's go right now!" Kemuri grabbed Cari's arm and sprinted off to the river. He ran through town with Cari's body in the air behind him. When they got to the river Kemuri set him down.
"Let's get started." Kemuri's crazy smile came back.
"Yeah." And so did Cari's.
"Ready...set...go!" Kemuri rushed faster than Cari could see then he threw a punch at Cari's face but this time Cari moved his head barely out of the way making a cut on his face. Then Cari grabs Kemuri's shoulder but Kemuri quickly slapped his hand off then spear hand strikes the epigastric area of the abdomen, then comes up with an uppercut that hits Cari so hard it lifts him off his feet! while Cari was still in the air, Kemuri spinning back kicked Cari away. Cari rolled on the ground then bounced up.
"Even though I blocked that kick I still got hurt. My arm damn near shattered. And the worse part is. He doesn't look like he is trying at all." Cari smiled. "He is definitely stronger than the Siro dude."
"Looks like you've gotten stronger than I thought. That kick would had shattered your arm the last time we fought. you also got faster and managed to block. You're so much fun to play with!" Kemuri rushed at him again.
A few hours later...
"Good job today. I had fun. And look, you can still stand. So bonus points." Kemuri gave Cari a thumbs up.
"My arms are shattered. My legs are cut and bruised but I can still walk if I focus. And I'm bleeding a lot. But I'm still standing. I call this a successful training day." Cari thought to himself.
"Do you think you can walk back to the castle?" Kemuri asked.
"Y-yeah. I'll see ya there." Cari leaned against a tree.
"Alright. Try not to die." And just like that Kemuri was gone.
"This is a good time to let my body get better at healing itself." Cari sat down and didn't move.
Meanwhile...
"I'm baaack!" Kemuri said as he jumped onto the arena.
"Where Cari?" Osdy asked.
"He wanted to walk back by himself. I'm sure he's fiiiine."
"...How badly was he hurt when you left him?" Fila asked, looking concerned.
"Both of his arms are broken and he was badly bruised...but he could walk! That's good, right?"
"Kemuri you know the demons come out at night more than the day! You just left him!?" Fila looked angry.
"This really isn't good," Siro added.
"What? He said he was fine...I didn't tell him about the demon thing though..." Kemuri realized how badly he messed up.
"This dude right here bru!" Avery yelled.
Meanwhile...
"Looks like my body has gained the ability to heal faster. Not all of my cuts and bruises are gone and my arms are still broken but I can walk. I should go back now. This is how the black people be dying in the movies first." Cari got up and started walking to the path when suddenly he heard a noise in the bushes.
"Nope fuck that! I'm not even staying around to know what it was!" Cari took off into a full sprint. Then as he was running a cute bunny hopped out in front of him... "Aww. so cute- wait a damn minute. In all the anime that I have watched bunny for some reason are the scariest thing!" Suddenly the bunny's eyes turned red and it made a loud hissing noise!
"I fucking called it!!" Cari started running to the path again! He reached the path back to the kingdom but suddenly three bunnies jumped out from the bushes! "Oh shit!" Cari got ready to kick. But then three water arrows hit the bunnies and an ice spike hit the last one.
"Just barely made it. How do you keep managing to almost get killed?" a women ask, followed by a sighed.
"You better pay me back for saving you twice now," a voice stated.
"Leslie? Richard?"
"Yes, it's us. It's weird that you said our name knowing who we are already." Richard responded.
"We're also here!" Kemuri jumped around.
"By ''we're'' he means me as well," Fila said.
"You guys saved my ass. Thanks."
"You're in debt two favors now." Richard walked over and tried to keep Cari held up by his arm.
"Ow! My arms are broken Richard!"
"Oh yeah. Sorry. I forgot."
They all started their way back to the castle after Fila healed Cari's arms.
The next day...
Everybody was in their separate rooms just waking up.
"Goooodmoooorning Caaari!" Kemuri bust into Cari's room and tried to kick him but Cari barely dodged.
"you tried to take my head off!" Cari yelled at Kemuri.
"But I didn't so it's fiiine."
"I guess. What if I was trying to beat my meat or something and you just bust in like this!?"
"I would join in of course!" Kemuri said with a smile.
"Why da hell did you sound so confident in your answer! beating my meat with another guy is not on my to-do list."
"I saw yours! It's only fair you get to see mine!" Kemuri started taking off his clothes.
"Hell no!" Cari yelled.
"They're so loud in the morning..." Leslie thought to herself. Leslie got dressed and walked over to Cari's room. "Hey, could you guys keep it down?"
"Stop taking off your clothes!" Cari shouted.
"Da hell?" Leslie thought to herself as she stood outside Cari's door.
"Man they really need to shut up." Avery walked out of his room and swung open Cari's door. And standing there was a half-naked Kemuri and a Cari who was just trying to force him to keep his clothes on. They all paused and looked at each other.
"So yall some little freaky freaks." Avery chuckled a little bit.
"This looks bad but I promise I was trying to keep his clothes on." Cari let go of Kemuri.
"I heard that from outside the door but...I kinda like this ship." Leslie gave Cari a thumbs up.
"Nah Les. You know this situation is already looking bad mine as well...Kemuri strip!" Cari yelled.
"Ok!" Kemuri took off his clothes fast.
"Whyyyy!!" Avery shouted covering his eyes.
"That's two dicks in a week!" Leslie hurried and turned around.
"That backfired didn't it!" Cari started laughing.
See ya next time...
