"So … it seems like you guys had a difficult life despite both of you were also born as the kids of The Leaders just like me and Cheryl, huh? Not gonna lie, I had never heard about both of you before we're being placed on The Saviors, I also never heard about the bully that you guys got during your time on the military train, I thought everyone was happy there, to be honest I once thought most of The Martians were happy though until I knew the trainers on the group where I was at during my time on the military train, they didn't really nice towards me and Jade, Jade and me were trained on the same team by the way," Shawn said to Aksel and Chandler, this was their first conversation after they left Jake, Jade, and Cole 3 minutes ago due to Chandler surprisingly got a new quest where he should get lots of multiple kinds of medicinal plants, Aksel helped him by asked help from a monkey to help Chandler finds those plants, then he, as well as Shawn, decided to accompany Chandler searching for these plants, and since she had nothing to do, Cheryl also decided to follow Chandler even though she still looked so sad and annoyed, and yes, the four of them currently followed the monkey's steps.
"Yeah … compared to us, it seems that you had a very happy life, didn't you? Also, you probably never heard of us and the bully we got because you were so famous on the military train. Did you even know that the kids in the group where I was at talked about you a lot despite the groups on the military train very rarely meeting each other? At least there would be five or more kids that talk about you every day, there were no days without a conversation about you in the group where I was at, you were extremely that famous on the military train, I wonder how the military train is now without your presence there, I believe almost all the kids would have been asking about your whereabouts a lot, I can't even really imagine it though," Aksel replied to Shawn while occasionally looking at him, but his main focus would be mostly placed at the monkey.
Shawn was indeed a famous trainee in the military, he had such a good reputation there, it can be said that he was the most famous trainee throughout the military training history, and he could be the most famous figure in the military if only he did not join The Saviors. Shawn is a very good-looking boy, his monthly all-skills ranks were always placed at number 3 on the group where he was, which was just 2 positions lower than Jade's who was always placed at the first position. He's also a very friendly person, he's nice, kind, and has a good attitude, he also smiles a lot. Girls and boys, almost all the kids on the military train liked him for these reasons.
Girlfriends? Shawn had 20 in total, and until now he's not even 18 yet, the craziest fact is that he dated all those 20 girls at the same time and he was so open with everyone about his relationships, so basically, everyone knew about it, at least the kids who were in the same group as him, and none of the girls had a problem with that, well, actually, no one even had a problem with it, including Shawn himself, no one found it weird or wild. His girlfriends never fought each other though, they all were so fair in sharing Shawn.
"The perfect question would be 'how are your twenty girlfriends doing without you' actually," Cheryl unexpectedly joined the conversation although she said that with a lazy tone because she was still sad and annoyed, she didn't show a big interest in being involved in the conversation as well, she just said what she wanted to say.
"Twenty?!" Aksel and Chandler exclaimed in shock together, both of them also turned their heads to Shawn afterwards with their surprised Pikachu faces.
"Ahahaha," Shawn could only chuckle shyly while scratching the back of his head.
"You're seventeen and you've done harem with twenty girls?! Dude!" Aksel continued, it was like a compliment and the expression of disbelief, amazement, and confusion showed at the same time.
"Harem? What is that?" Chandler asked Aksel immediately after, he looked confused, there was a frown forming on his forehead too. Chandler is literally the youngest member of The Saviors, it is totally normal if he doesn't know what a harem is.
"It's like … uh … it's like you have … you have … it's like you have so many partners at the same time … I guess?" Aksel answered Chandler's question shyly, he even blushed and averted his gaze while thinking about the best words that could describe it rightfully. "Ek, I think I'm not too good at explaining things, but, damn, twenty is such a number, Shawn," Aksel said afterwards as he stopped blushing and he returned to looking at Shawn again.
"Hahahaha, it really is," Shawn replied, he was so calm at responding to Aksel and Chandler's shock.
"By the way, stop thinking about lewd things as that monkey desperately screaming for the sake of our attention," Cheryl told the three of them as she realized that the monkey screamed at them, trying to tell them something. She was still with the same lazy tone though.
"Oh!" Aksel gave a very fast response towards it and he immediately started to communicate with the monkey afterwards.
"We're here, guys, this is the area where we can find some of those medicinal plants and our little friend will help us find them one by one, but Chandler should tell him what's the first plant he wants to find first, what's the second one he wants to find, the third one, and so on," Aksel explained to the three of them as he let the monkey climbing over to his body and ended up by sitting down on his shoulder.
"Oh, okay, I see, but ... may I take one of those roses first? They look so beautiful, I want to keep one of them and then give it to someone," Chandler said, he also pointed out a tiny area that was filled with beautiful roses, and all of his friends immediately turned their heads towards that tiny area and were surprised when they saw those roses.
"Wow, I didn't expect that there would be roses around us, how could you notice it? Oh my God! They look so beautiful! I want to keep one of them as well!" Cheryl finally spoke cheerfully as she looked at those roses, her face became so bright very quickly, she and the three boys also approached the roses just shortly after. The girl was no longer annoyed nor sad, these roses really changed her mood, it became way more positive.
"Do you want to keep one of them as well?" Shawn asked Aksel as her sister and Chandler were busy choosing the best rose they could see and get.
"I don't think so, I'm not a fan of flowers and I don't know with whom I should give it to as well, so, I think no," Aksel replied to him a moment later.
"Seriously? I thought you're gonna keep one of them and give it to Rosemarie," Shawn said transparently, he looked kinda surprised after he got a reply from Aksel, but Aksel was way more surprised after he heard what Shawn had just said.
"What?!" Aksel also immediately turned his head towards Shawn and it was a very fast move.
"Don't you like her or something?" Shawn made sure and made Aksel become more and more surprised.
"Who- who said that to you?" Aksel asked Shawn a probing question, and with suspicion as well.
"-"
"Alright, guys, let's get those medicinal plants," Chandler said as he got the rose on his hand already, he also unintentionally interrupted Shawn who was just about to answer Aksel's probing question.
"Let's go, I also got my rose already," Cheryl added, both she and Chandler looked so happy, Chandler even blushed when he saw his rose again.
"Who's the person you're gonna give that rose to, Chandler?" Shawn then asked Chandler while teasing him a little bit, he realized this rose thing isn't an ordinary thing for Chandler, so he became curious about with whom Chandler's gonna give the rose.
"Eh? Ah … someone, you're gonna find it out once we're back later," Chandler answered, once again looking at his rose with the same rose flush on his face.
"Apparently, you're in love with someone in our team, huh? So unexpected to be honest, but I'm happy for you," Aksel spoke to Chandler with a big smile, Shawn's smile also became bigger after he saw Aksel's big smile.
"Me too," Shawn said.
"How about you, Cheryl? You're gonna give your rose to someone else as well?" Chandler asked Cheryl afterwards.
"No, I'll just keep this for myself, but I'm also happy for you, you know," Cheryl responded so quickly, he also gave Chandler a big smile.
With the support they gave him, Chandler's confidence increased extremely high, this also made him couldn't stop smiling, and the rose flush also couldn't be gone from his face. 'Jade …' he thought.
