After crying and Old man Sanders accompanying me. I went home and slept to get ready for the funeral tomorrow.
---
It was the next day. I was standing outside the place where the funeral would be held. I fixed my self, double checking if I my clothes are good. The guard at front saw me and smiled he thought that Louc was someone that is here to go and pay respects to the one that passed away.
He welcomed me in and I smiled at him and nodded. I walked in and looked around me as I saw a luxurious place in front of me.
Jousha's family was stacked, they were loaded. I mean look at this place!
Louc had his mouth gaping looking at the decorations and flowers in front of him.
It was beautiful he felt a bit guilty but waved that thought off what was done needed to be done.
Joshua's father saw Louc and walked over to him.
"Louc, glad you could make it.." Joshua's father said in a low voice showing that he was still depressed.
"Thanks for inviting me sir. I'm glad I could come." Louc smiled and patted the man's shoulder he showed a very polite manner making the people that were standing on the side think of him as someone from a rich family.
"Sigh.. sorry for ruining the mood. Well we have drinks and food right over there if your hungry there will also be a ceremony later where friends and family of Joshua will come up and say a few words. If you want you can go up later to say a few words." Joshua's father pointed to the food and drinks and pointed to the place where people would stand to pay respects.
Joshua's body wasn't here as he burned it only leaving ashes.
Other family members so Louc and people there also saw Louc they came to greet him and thought of him as a far away friend of Joshua they thought that he was sad that his friend passed away.
They came and patted his back and shoulders while muttering a few words along the lines of thanking him for coming.
Well the funeral passed a few hours and the ceremony began people were really not saying anything that stuck to him just a few words saying that they were sad that Joshua passed away but he could feel a hint of sadness in everyone's words.
The announcer looked at Louc and Louc was hesitating at first but went up.
He positioned himself in front of the microphone and touched it a few times to see if it was working.
"Ah.. Ah.. Hello?" He stopped for a few seconds and then continued introducing himself.
The people saw him and wondered who this was they didn't know Joshua knew someone as handsome as him.
"My name is Louc Barton I am a friend of Joshua." He then began telling a 'story' of how he and Joshua met and how he helped Joshua when he was lost. He told a few funny moments where he got lost because Joshua kept saying that the other way was the right way. Making people chuckle a bit.
"It's sad thinking that a wonderful person has passed but we should not despair on the past as he would be happy if we were happy." He said with a gentle smile looking at everyone's faces before continuing.
"I will now sing a song to look back at the fun times with Joshua." Louc said while pulling out a guitar.
He started playing a song making people cry and happy at the same time they felt nostalgic at how much Joshua was an idiot and how much he was an overprotective brother. Joshua's father also cried while smiling and felt that his son was truly an idiot.
Louc was feeling 2 emotions right now guilt and sadness even though he killed Joshua looking at the happy smiles and tears that people in front of him were spewing out made his heart heavy but he couldn't do anything anymore as he already did it. He poured his heart into this song that was called Nostalgia he made this song to look back to the nostalgic moments in life whether it was a good or bad memory it was nostalgic.
The song finished and people clapped while he stepped down the stage. Joshua's father came to him and hugged him while crying. Joshua's father thought of Louc as his first son so he hugged him like he was his son.
Louc hugged him back and smiled while looking at the man's back.
Joshua's family came to me and hugged me one by one his mother, father, and sister.
The mother looked at him in the face while crying and hugged him.
The sister that was the same age as him cried as well.
The sister wanted to hug him as well but was a bit embarrassed as she was gonna hug a man for the first time in her life. Her father was overprotective leading to her not having as many boys as friends.
She looked at her dad and he nodded it wouldn't be bad for Louc to take care of his son he glanced at Louc and grinned.
...? Why do i feel that grin means something?
He shrugged and then hugged the daughter.
He said goodbye to them and the other people that he met there. He left the funeral and went to his house to change clothes to go to old man Sanders gym.
---
He changes his clothes he wore simple sports wear. He left his house and went to the gym.
A couple of minutes of walking towards the gym he made it and was standing in front of the door. He looked at the board up top of the door.
Sander's Boxing Gym. A gigantic board was placed there with prices of coaching and how much a gym membership cost.
He sighed at this and went in.
Once he walked in he looked around the place and smelled the air. The air was filled with sweat and hard work as he looked at the people around ranging from kids to adults boxing and working on their body.
He looked at the faces of the kids and the adults their eyes.. they were serious about this they had fire in their eyes the eyes that looked like someone that would do their absolute best to get what they want.
Old man Sanders was sitting down when he saw his golden goose enter his gym he immediately stood up and ran to him.
The people there was confused and tilted their heads. What could make their coach that was usually cold and hard on his disciples have a look on his face that was like a kid seeing boxing for the first time?!
They then looked toward the direction their coach was running and saw a man with black hair with a handsome face and a body that looked okay.
Louc saw the old man or now his coach. His coach then opened his mouth while slapping his back.
"Good, good! You made it just in time!" The old man was full of smiles while holding clothes.
He shubbed it to Louc's hands Louc looked at what was in his hands and saw clothes or what seemed to be a uniform that the kids and adults wear here.
"Wear it. I personally had it made just for you, i touched your body last night and had a uniform made that what I think fit your image." He smiled while sitting down to observe Louc's transformation.
Louc sighed and shook his head but he followed what he said and noticed a difference in the colors of the uniform compared to the others.
While the others had red and yellow colors. His had black and yellow, black for strength and yellow for speed.
Louc took off his clothes right then and there showing off his muscles to the coach and the people observing.
There showed a perfect muscle structure and scars at the back of his body that looked liked he went through some sort of war to get this type of body.
The others had their mouths open while looking at Louc's body. It was.. perfect!
The coach only saw a part of Louc's body and that was the back he didn't see Louc's front and also had his mouth wide open he then said.
"Take off your pants let me see your legs!"
.... That came out weird..
The coach then saw Louc's gaze and quickly said while slapping Louc's head.
"Don't make it weird dumbass!" He said while having anger in his voice.
I quickly chuckled and showed him my legs.
I was wearing a boxer to protect my little brother.
"You..... how did you get this type of body...?" The coach originally thought that he would have to put some sort of body training in the menu but scratch that! Look at this! This magnificent body!
"I trained for 16 hellish years never stopping even when it was raining or a volcano exploded." Louc said in a proud voice while looking back at the times he passed out due to the amount of training he did.
The old man heard him and he nodded. I guess i need to change the training plan....
Thought the old man.
"Alright put on the uniform let me see you in the uniform I prepared."
Louc nodded and put on the uniform that had black and yellow color stripes that spread along his legs and arms there was also a dragon at the back.
"Coach.. your pretty good at designing clothes." Louc complimented him while looking at himself at the mirror.
"Hehe! Don't underestimate me kid. Even my designer skills are top notch!" He crossed his arms while looking proud.
"Let's test it out." Louc said and got into his boxing stance.
'Let's see if all you got is your face and body....' The people nearby said and grinned.
Louc positioned himself in front of a sand bag and then inhaled... exhale.
He threw out a jab and sent the bag flying.
His jab made a loud sound and his coach had his mouth wide open once again.
'H-his jab! It improved this much?!'
The bag that went far away from him was now coming back and he got ready throw a jab.
He then stepped forward and threw a jab putting all his weight behind that jab.
The bag then exploded and made a mess on the ground.
... What the hell are you doing coach?! You then went and brought another Mike Tyson to your gym!
Louc then looked at the mess he made and his eyebrow twitched.
"I don't have to pay for this right....?" He said with a low voice at his coach and the coach snapped out of his daydream and replied back.
"Dont worry it's fine." He shrugged it off and then patted Louc's back.
"Good job kid!"
That was the first time Louc had received a praise from someone in a long time.
He smiled and said with excitement.
"Thanks coach!" He genuinely smiled and took the hearts of the girls watching away.
"Now he's even taking the girls! Someone stop him!" The members of the gym then ganged up on Louc and Louc was ready to throw punches but the members grabbed him and they all said.
"Welcome newbie!"
"Hahaha! That was a nice jab you got there kid."
"Well it was pretty good but not good enough."
"Fight me, fight me!"
"Kid~ care to leave with this old woman tonight..?"
"Don't mind her kid."
"Yeah, yeah! Another powerful competitor!"
They all had smiles on their faces while playing with the newbie.
Louc smiled and had tears on his eyes he wiped it and said.
"Thanks everyone, my name is Louc Barton please take care of me." Louc said while looking at each and everyone of them.
"Glad to have ya!" They all said at the same time and welcomed him in with a hug.
****
Well that was nice.
